Chapter 78: Contribution Frenzy
Mantou's video and Singo's strategy caused a sensation among the player community, and the [Mysterious Invitation Letter], which was temporarily limited to 10 copies in the exchange, has been sold out.
The big guilds all said that they would stop pretending and began to monopolize the faction contribution tasks that were previously ignored, while the money tasks were neglected.
So players started a craze for faction contributions and began to work for Cassius for free day and night. The task board was even looted.
"Let me be a dragon vein sorcerer!"
"I want to be a dragon rider!"
"Ahhhh! Give me the divine outfit!"
"The sky is a man's romance!"
Excited players shouting such slogans appeared in mines, beside city walls, on rooftops and even next to dung heaps.
Even Medoraash was shocked by the players' enthusiasm for work, and he rushed to produce a lot of new tasks.
At this critical juncture, Cassius pursued relentlessly and took another drastic measure, launching his long-prepared fully automatic leek harvester - the camp position system.
Manage players with players and bring management costs to negative numbers.
Currently, only three low-level positions are open: tax collector, scribe, and security guard.
They are responsible for collecting taxes, recording and processing documents, and maintaining city security. The officials of Batto City will give them corresponding suits and accommodation. Their only salary is their daily contribution to the camp, and the amount of the camp contribution reward will be determined based on their performance.
Even for these low-level positions, the standard application requirement is 3000 faction contribution, and most players now don't even reach one-tenth of this number.
In this regard, they can only sigh in despair, continue to work hard, and fantasize about a better future.
But at this time, the famous "Four Black Slave Group" was very excited about this. After eighteen days of inhumane torture, their contribution had long reached the standard.
[Faction Position System Opened!]
[Your contribution value is 6457, you can choose positions [Tax Collector] [Warlock] [Security Officer]]
[Note: The minimum daily salary for low-level positions is: 100 camp contributions]
[You can earn camp contribution commissions through work.]
Mantou pointed at the prompt on the panel and said, "This system is pretty cool. Every day, we get 100 camp contributions as our minimum wage. It looks like we don't have to work everywhere anymore!"
“Well, it’s finally over.”
Xia Ye Qiuyu nodded with lingering fear. If it weren't for her extremely high professional ethics, she might not want to stay in the dirty and dark mine for a moment.
The natural warrior touched his bald head and said, "It's really good."
Singo glanced through the job descriptions and concluded eloquently, "Let me tell you my opinion. I mainly recommend the positions of security officer and tax collector."
"Every time a security guard catches a crime, he or she will receive an additional commission of 150 contributions. Haha, you know how high the crime rate of the player community is, given their nature."
"There are also tax collectors. Their contribution commission is calculated based on the taxes collected. Maybe we can even make some gold coins. There is a lot of room for maneuver here."
"As for the scribes? They handle 4,000 words of documents every day, and are guaranteed a minimum of 1,500 contributions per month."
"Not even a dog."
He once again made that classic statement.
Tiansheng Zhankuang, Mantou, and Xiaye Qiuyu all suggested, "Then let's choose the security guard."
It's nothing, the tax collectors are just too hateful.
Singo smiled strangely: "Haha, then I will choose the tax collector. I will let the players know that paying taxes is as inevitable as death."
Mantou felt his scalp tingling as he watched this, and he once again sighed that this guy was a pure pervert.
I wonder how this tax collector will torture other players in the future.
[You choose the position of the camp——[Sheriff]]
[You can live in the [Bato City Security Guard Dormitory]]
[You need to go to the [Administrative Hall of Batto City] to receive the corresponding suits and weapons.]
Mantou and his group first checked out the new dormitory which had a pretty good environment, and then went to the hall to collect their armor and weapons.
"Wow, is he that handsome?" "This benefit is too good."
Mantou stared at the brand new [Sheriff's Armor] and [Sword of Order] in his hands and couldn't help but sigh.
This is much better than the equipment that Singo had sold before, it can be said to be a qualitative leap.
"Although Xin Gou is a bit of a bad person, he is indeed very capable." Mantou sighed.
The armor is a fine iron armor that is difficult for players to buy, and the weapon is a standard iron longsword. There is an exquisite emblem carved on the chest of the armor and the hilt of the longsword. The pattern is a golden vertical pupil surrounded by flames - it is a symbol unique to the Burning Nest.
They even got the use of horses.
Put on new equipment, pick up the sword in your hand, and ride on a tall horse.
"The spring breeze is blowing, and the horses are galloping. In one day, I can see all the flowers in Batu."
he intoned triumphantly.
Mantou felt very happy and proud, and all the hard work paid off. His previous depression disappeared, and even his eyes towards those players who were working hard became arrogant.
The players in the square also noticed the steamed buns. They thought it was some NPC, but they could barely recognize it when they saw the "I'm going to eat steamed buns" sign above its head.
“Is this a steamed bun?”
"Where did they get the suits that look so good?"
"Did he rob the bank?"
"Where did you get the mount? I want to ride a horse, too."
"It hurts more to see Mantou living so well than to see myself living poorly."
A dusty player who had just returned from the mines exclaimed, "Damn, isn't that the four-man black slave group?"
When Mantou heard this, his eyes widened, he raised his sword and pointed it at the player, and shouted according to the instructions in the security guard manual:
"Citizens, I am responsible for maintaining law and order here, please watch your words!"
"No provocation of the security guards!"
……
"puff!"
Kaixiu, who was lying in the cave watching the video, suddenly laughed out loud and almost spit out flames from his mouth. He thought to himself that Mantou was quite pretentious.
The red dragon exhaled a breath of hot, sulfurous air.
But it's also good this way, making them positive examples of working for the Burning Lair, so that all players understand the importance of working hard to earn contributions to the faction, and then Cassius can reap the benefits.
"hey-hey……"
Cassius laughed sinisterly.
After most players have reached the camp contribution standards, he will carry out a "consumption upgrade".
He would put things that were comparable to the original [Emperor Shop] level into the new [Diamond Shop], and then increase the camp contribution standards several times, and continue to make them work for him for free.
"It's okay, everyone."
"There are still many days ahead."
After only a little over a month of internal testing, Cassius had already learned everything on his own and was well versed in the essence of the art of cutting leeks from his previous life.
