Chapter 244 - Labor Utilization Token (1/2)

”So you're the adventurer who made the greatest contribution in the Titan Forest. I know you. I heard that you once obtained 130 million points in the Titan Forest. This is indeed an impressive achievement. After all, you haven't even reached the Earth Realm yet.” The City Lord of Iron Skull City said.

Lorne also observed the other party seriously at this moment. It was an old man with white hair. Although he was old, he was still wearing heavy armor and a black battle axe beside him. From the looks of it, this city lord had also been a powerful warrior.

From his current mental state and burly muscles, it could be seen that age did not affect his combat strength. Even his turbid old eyes made this old city lord look a little deep.

At the same time, a green name appeared above his head.

[Iron Skull City's City Lord, Ansare] (???)

His level and other attributes could not be seen. According to Lorne's estimation, this old City Lord should be above Level 100 and of very high quality.

After all, even the One-Eyed Giant Snake was Level 100. The energy waves emitted by that guy were far inferior to this old city lord.

”Cold Desolate Dragon City? What an ancient name. Although you don't have the spirit of a dragon yet, you have the courage to surpass everything. You actually chose this name.”

City Lord Ansare approved of Lorne's territory, then opened the scroll and said, ”Benno, this is indeed a structural scroll for a large magic circle. You should apologize to this young adventurer.”

Benno was the name of the leader of the Black Rhinoceros Army. Hearing that the City Lord had confirmed the authenticity of the tool, he chuckled and said, ”I'm sorry, adventurer. I was too rash.”

”It's fine.” Lorne did not care.

City Lord Ansare asked curiously, ”Young adventurer, I would like to know if you built the guild base in the ruins of the war to avoid taxes or for other reasons?”

Ding!

”Game Announcement: Your answer will determine the City Lord's opinion of you. Please consider carefully before answering.”

The system notification suddenly came.

It was unknown what these important figures were thinking. They actually liked to undergo such a strange test.

Fortunately, Lorne was experienced. Without any hesitation, he looked into the other party's eyes and said in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing, ”The lack of taxes is indeed a factor, but it's not enough to influence my choice.”

”I built the guild base in the ruins of the war because of other considerations.”

”Firstly, the ruins of the war have the most abundant resources in Iron Skull City. Adventurers spend most of their time in battle. This place is exactly the favorite area of adventurers, and it's beneficial for the future development of the territory.”

”Secondly, the Lake of Death and Iron Skull City balance each other. I built my territory near it so I can use this balance to obtain the greatest sense of security.”

”Thirdly, the range of the ruins of the war is too large, and the location is very sensitive. It is under the fortress at the northern border. In the future, if a war occurs, the ruins of the war might cooperate with the dark monsters outside and make the city guards suffer from enemies from both sides. At that time, the war will be extremely dangerous. Therefore, in order to counter this issue, I choose to resist this dark power head-on!”

Lorne first spoke of the adventurer's private thoughts, then added a noble goal that he understood. As a result, his image was immediately elevated.

”Young adventurer, although you have your own selfish motives, you also have the courage to take on a huge responsibility. This is a thought that many soldiers of Iron Skull City do not have. I believe you can definitely develop your camp and turn it into a true city.” City Lord Ansare gave him a very high evaluation.

Ding!
