"Are you Roland?"
The person standing in front of Roland had a happy face, blond hair and blue eyes, a tall body, and a vague aura of sand sculpture on his face. You didn't need to think about it, you could tell he was a player at a glance.
Roland blinked: "Who are you?"
"Siegfried of the United Progressive Organization." The player stepped forward, shook Roland's hand warmly, and shook it vigorously for a while: "I've always wanted to talk to you, but I never had time. I didn't expect , I actually met you here, it’s great, this is fate.”
Roland couldn't stand the other party's enthusiasm.
Today's young people, including Roland, are not very good at dealing with those who are particularly enthusiastic. It's not that they don't have social skills, but that the new generation has a relatively cold personality, and the relationships between work colleagues, customers, and friends are very clear.
For strangers, there is no shortage of normal social greetings, but it is a bit uncomfortable for them to chat up each other warmly, or to be chatted up warmly by each other.
So Roland could only smile dryly and said: "Hello, I am indeed Roland. What do you want from me?"
"Can we sit down and talk in the tavern?" Siegfried pointed to the side.
Roland pondered for a while. He originally wanted to refuse, but Siegfried looked expectant and eager.
There was no other way, Roland had no choice but to agree.
The two of them sat down in the tavern.
There were very few people in the tavern, probably because they didn’t get to drink.
After Siegfried ordered two glasses of fruit wine, he said to Roland: "Roland, you must have heard of our United Progressive Organization."
"You often send and receive posts on the forum to find like-minded friends. I have seen your posts several times."
Siegfried laughed happily a few times, and then continued: "We have been paying attention to you. Now most players have begun to cherish themselves and are not willing to announce their new discoveries or research results at will. Even if To publish it, you also have to use forum coins to purchase the content of the post, making money in disguise.”
Roland listened quietly, he had indeed seen this trend.
"But you are different, you are still publishing your knowledge for free." Siegfried said with admiration: "You have a spirit of sharing, and several core members of our federation unanimously believe that you should join us. "
Roland was stunned for a moment: "Now?"
"Of course it is now, any undertaking must be done early." Siegfried smiled and said: "We need strong partners who can understand our actions."
Roland frowned: "Now is not the time."
"Why?" Siegfried was a little surprised.
"Our players are not strong enough." Roland explained: "I personally don't object to what you want to do, and I don't have any good impressions of the nobility and national system of this world. But now is really not the time."
"You mean we don't have enough strength?" Siegfried asked slowly.
Roland nodded.
Siegfried smiled and said: "Don't worry, we have also considered this. After all, we need to have a gun. Everyone has studied politics and understands it. So now we are still in the accumulation stage and have no plans to take action."
Hearing this, Roland felt more relieved.
But he was a little curious: "How many people have you developed?"
"More than a thousand players have joined our federation now." Siegfried smiled and said: "And there are already more than 10,000 people, and they are living with us in the suburbs. We burn forests for farming, dig mountains and dig A small town has been built in Hehe. A small town that operates completely according to our system."
Hearing this, Roland took a breath: "More than 10,000 people?"
Siegfried nodded, his expression looking very satisfied.
"This target is a bit too big." Roland murmured, "I feel something might happen."
"It doesn't matter, we have also considered this. When soldiers come, they will be blocked, and when water comes, the soil will cover them." Siegfried smiled: "We are very clear about the quality of the soldiers of the surrounding lords, and they are true."
"No." Roland shook his head: "I'm afraid that the gods will be involved in this matter."
Siegfried was silent for a while and said: "I am also a little worried personally, so we live in the suburbs and try not to interact with the believers of the gods."
Roland drank the fruit wine and remained silent.
Siegfried looked at Roland's expression for a while, and then asked: "Roland, are you willing to join us?"
Roland thought for a while and replied, "Can I think about it for a few days?"
"Of course there's no problem. If you think about it, you can come to the suburbs to find us. It's easy to find." Siegfried smiled and stood up: "It's getting late. I also want to bring the salt back to the town."
That's the good thing about the system backpack. If you carry something on you, others can't see it or steal it.
After Siegfried left, Roland drank the fruit wine, asked the bartender for the direction of the Chamber of Commerce, then left the tavern and walked slowly on the street.
This is a commercial city, and it is very lively with people coming and going. As Roland walked, he thought about what Siegfried just said.
What Siegfried and the others did was just, there was no need to question that, but they were too impatient.
Now the system and ideas have been copied, and a small town has been built.
The operations were efficient, but their power was not enough.
The most important thing is that they have revealed their intentions by doing this. If they are discovered, the gods will definitely be on guard against such thoughts in the future.
At that time, if you want to spread it, the obstacles will be much greater.
I hope I am overthinking it...
After walking, Roland came to the door of the Chamber of Commerce.
He was about to ask the guard outside if there was a man named Rollover here.
As a result, before the words were spoken, a young man walked out, waved to Roland and said with a smile: "Roland, here, here."
Roland walked over and asked, "Rollaford?"
The player nodded. He did things very simply and took out a black gem directly from the system backpack: "This thing can help you find the red magic tower."
Roland handed over ten gold coins.
Both parties pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other.
After getting the gold coins, the player was about to leave, but he turned back and asked: "By the way, are you willing to accept the employment of our players?"
Roland looked puzzled: "We have a system backpack. Even merchants and players don't have to worry about their goods being robbed."
Luo Lafu shook his head: "It's not a problem with the trade route. It's because our boss received a blue mission and was stuck at a certain step. He needs a text translation. But we found many people and didn't know what those words meant. No one understands."
Oh, it turned out that I was interested in my "knowledge of words".
"Is the mission troublesome?"
"It's not troublesome. How about we give you money, a gold coin." Luo Lafu thought for a while and continued: "And you should have a lot of experience in this task. After all, it is a blue task."
"Took it." Roland nodded and said.
As expected of a businessman, he immediately discovered Roland's 'need'. Roland didn't care about a gold coin, but he must get the character experience.
Now Roland has gradually begun to lack money and character experience.
Luo Lafu smiled when he heard this and said: "Great, now the task that has been stuck for us for five days should be solved."
