“Roar!”
Two yellow dragons of providence rose into the key.
With their roaring, the center of Dragon City was separated into ten altars that could contain 10,000 people. The new players began to appear on the platforms.
“We’re in! We’re in!”
“This is the Land of Inheritance!”
“Oh my! What a magnificent ancient city!”
“Look! Dragons! There are two five-clawed yellow dragons!”
“They’re the Twin Dragons of Providence the forum talks about. Watch out. Their Transcendent power is comparable to a nuclear bomb!”
Over 5,000 new players were impressed by Dragon City the moment they arrived. The renovation combined the four islands together, and Dragon City took up half of the settlement.
“Hi, beautiful, where are you from?”
“Yang City!”
“You’re a local. I envy you. I’m from Jiang City. I hope we’ll get along well in the future!”
Many people started chatting with other players around them right away.
“I heard that Jiang City only had a quota of 30 this time. Bro, you’re very lucky!” a man interjected.
“Yes, I guess I am. Where are you from?”
“Me? I’m from the capital city.”
“Holy crap! You’re the real lucky one! Jiang City is in Southwest Province and doesn’t have a large population. It’s relatively less competitive. But there are tens of millions of people in the capital city, and only over a dozen people can come here. You really should buy a lottery ticket!”
“Gosh, where will I find the time? I have 30 buildings in the capital city, and it takes me a whole month to collect the rents. I’m too busy to do such things.”
The man from the capital sighed.
The man from Jiang City felt even more defeated.
“Don’t take it too hard, man. My houses are all in the suburbs and aren’t worth much. The other day, a place in Dragon City was auctioned for 3 billion! You are worth almost as much as I am!”
“That’s right. 3 billion for a place. That’s crazy!”
After that, they went on looking around them.
This was an unfamiliar world that was full of opportunities.
“So, half of the fourth batch is from Yang City, and of the other half, Southwest Province takes up 50%. The remaining 25% comes from other provinces. Is that right?”
“That is to say, it’s similar to the third batch.”
At the center of Dragon City, Ji Ye, Su Nongying, and several others stood above the “imperial palace”, the tallest building.
The palace used to belong to Tian Hu, and in Ji Ye’s plan, it was going to be the center of the sub-settlement. But after Li Chunfeng arrived yesterday, he suggested that they moved the palace, whose Feng Shui settings were designed by Qiao Daoqing, into Dragon City so that it could work together with the Dragon Terrain.
Naturally, Ji Ye wouldn’t object.
However, the plate over the gate of the palace had been changed to “Residence of the City Master”.
Although they had the True Dragon Terrain now, and Ji Ye even had the King’s Contract, which could create the “King’s Fate”, he had no intention to become a king or anything of that sort.
Because it would be too tiresome, and his current life was much more relaxing.
“That’s right.
“Because of the policy of gaining the registered permanent residence when one bought housing properties, the housing price in Yang City had skyrocketed. It tripled in a week. If we were to sell the land of the Dragon City Group as one, it’d be worth over 50 billion.”
Next to Su Mingcheng, Ji Ye said in a regretful tone.
The municipal government of Yang City had given Dragon City a large piece of land that wasn’t much smaller than the Dragon City in the Land of Inheritance.
Although the land was in the remote suburbs because it had become the headquarters of the Dragon City Group, the price around the area had increased by over 10 times.
“That’s crazy!”
“So, everyone’s here. Let’s get started.”
Seeing the 5,000 extremely excited new players, Ji Ye shook his head.
He then opened his mouth.
Hum!
Purple light flashed in his hand, and the Mirage Dragon Pearl jumped out of his Void Ring.
An image immediately appeared in the sky above the altar.
“Everyone, be quiet!
“First of all, welcome to Dragon City!”
“As new members of Dragon City, by convention, the first thing you should know is the general situation of Dragon City.
“Please listen carefully, because your life may depend on it!”
As the “steward” of Dragon City, Su Nongying appeared in the image, wearing a formal dress designed by the international fashion designer from the third batch. The style was a combination of modern and classic.
“It’s Chief Su!”
“Wow! She’s so pretty! I heard that she wasn’t 30 yet. How did she rise so high?”
“She has connections, I heard! She’s the daughter of Su Mingcheng, the richest man of Southwest Province!”
“Wait. Why did I hear that Su Mingcheng became the richest man because of her?”
“Well, that’s the advantage of joining the force early!”
Although there were some noises, most people quieted down almost immediately.
After all, the new players this time were all determined to come to Dragon City, so it was natural that they knew the management personnel well.
“First of all, the Dragon City settlement has a total area of 1.5 million square kilometers. Centered around Dragon City, the settlement is divided into four sections.
“Of them, the northern part is the grassland.”
The image changed, showing the northern grassland from above.
Horses neighed.
Hooves rumbled.
In the grassland.
Right now, Lu Junyi, Qin Ming, and Lin Chong each rode an Extraordinary horse.
Each led 500 horsemen, and every soldier had two horses. The three horse arrays were black, red, and white respectively. The three teams were engaging in a simulated battle.
“In the advancement trial earlier, Dragon City defeated the Liao Kingdom and captured 3,000 warhorses, which are now led by commanders Lu Junyi, Lin Chong, and Qin Ming for future battles,” said Su Nongying.
“Lin Chong? Which one is Lin Chong?”
Although Su Nongying mentioned three names, Lin Chong was obviously more popular than the other two.
“I think he’s the one riding a leopard-patterned horse with a black spear in his hand!”
“Lin Chong! Is Chief Lin here in Dragon City as well? When did that happen?!”
“Didn’t you do any research before coming here? It happened during his advancement test.”
Apart from Lin Chong, something else caught the new players’ attention. They were the ten ferocious-looking Black Armor Wolves led by Zhang Zhi.
“That’s so cool. Can we choose to join them?”
“I’m afraid not. I heard that the Black Armor Soldiers had very special equipment. Their number is always limited to eleven.”
However, what Su Nongying said next surprised the new players.
“They’re the Black Armor Wolves, the first special force of Dragon City. Right now, all the members are Extraordinary Level-7 Quasi-commander and above!
“From now on, we’ll recruit new members as backups!”
The Black Armor was indeed obtained from the Battlefield of Providence.
But after Ji Ye obtained his Fusion talent, he found out that if he could use the Army Soul in the bloody war flag and the prizes dropped by the Ghostship and combine them with special metals found in Tian Hu’s territory, he could replicate the Black Armor the way he did with the equipment of the Divine Arms with possibly higher levels and rarity.
That was to say, theoretically, the number of the Black Armor Wolves wouldn’t be limited to eleven.
However, to really expand that special force, they needed to increase the number of Steelback Blue Wolves!
Unfortunately, wolves were carnivores.
Otherwise, with the fast-growing grass, their number would increase rapidly.
“I see that the wolves are chasing other animals on the grassland.”
Some players are watching the running wolves.
“That’s right. There are at least thousands of those animals, and that’s too many of them for a small grassland. To make sure that the ecological circle won’t collapse, we should kill some of them.
“I hear that if you kill a monster in the Land of Inheritance, not only can you get EXP, but you can also have rewards related to Earth as well. It was said that a cow killed by a player dropped a whole box of Redbull!”
Many new players had heard about the rules of the Land of Inheritance that were similar to those of a game.
The idea of gaining power rapidly by killing monsters made many people very excited.
