Fa Biao De Wo Niu
Chapter 366 Dark Portal
Nie Yan's auction houses and shops had a large income. The income from these projects, plus the contributions of the Niuren Tribe players, could last a long time. Recently, after the incident with the kill order, the Assassin Alliance's income had plummeted. Most of them had participated in the kill missions, and many were not in the mood to do ordinary Assassin Alliance tasks. All income combined, it was about forty to fifty thousand gold coins a day.
"Record the names of all the people who donated gold coins. After this is over, we need to improve their benefits. These people are the true core of the Niuren Tribe!" Nie Yan said. These people's loyalty to the Niuren Tribe was far higher than ordinary guild members, so they should be rewarded, showing the difference between them and ordinary guild members. This was also a way to manage his subordinates.
Just then, Niao Bu Sheng Dan led a person over, a girl of eighteen or nineteen, with a rather cute appearance.
Nie Yan glanced at the girl. The girl looked over with curiosity, her eyes bright and piercing.
Zi Yan looked at Nie Yan. Nie Yan's image merged with some videos circulating online. This person was Mad Rogue Nie Yan!
"This girl is called Zi Yan. She is willing to be your exclusive alchemist. She is one of our three advanced alchemists." Niao Bu Sheng Dan said, introducing the Zi Yan next to him to Nie Yan.
Nie Yan nodded. She was only a girl of eighteen or nineteen. It was hard to imagine that she would later become the famous and wealthy beauty alchemist Zi Yan. Although he was a little surprised, he had seen a bit of the world, so he didn't show too much surprise at Zi Yan's appearance.
"Have you shown her the agreement?" Nie Yan asked. Their agreement was extremely strict, and ordinary pharmacists would not sign it. However, the benefits he offered were not bad. More importantly, the agreement stated that he would vigorously cultivate the alchemist. His name, Nie Yan, alone should attract one or two people, right?
"She has seen it and signed the agreement," Niao Bu Sheng Dan said. Even he didn't know what Nie Yan's purpose was.
Nie Yan looked at Zi Yan next to him and said, "Since you are sure you want to be my exclusive alchemist, you should have read the contents of the agreement. You should understand some of the clauses, including the principle of confidentiality."
Zi Yan's heart fluttered when she saw Nie Yan's serious expression. This person in front of her was the legendary president of the Niuren Tribe, the famous Mad Rogue Nie Yan. This put a lot of psychological pressure on Zi Yan.
She had also seen some videos related to Nie Yan and had a bit of admiration for the influential person in the videos. Plus, Nie Yan was now her boss, so it was inevitable that she would be a little nervous.
"I understand everything," Zi Yan nodded.
Seeing the little girl's somewhat flustered expression, Nie Yan smiled and said, "I'm not some monster. There's no need to be so nervous. You just need to abide by the rules in the agreement."
A little girl like Zi Yan was very simple. She was more trustworthy than some old-timers who often frequented major guilds.
"This is Dela's Magic Device Book. You learn it, and I will provide you with the materials. Your next job is to make these things, especially the Area Damage Magic Bomb. I need a large number of intermediate and above Area Damage Magic Bombs, the more the better!" Nie Yan said. With the Area Damage Magic Bombs, many problems could be solved easily, especially the level problem of the guild players.
The raw materials for making an Area Damage Magic Bomb were not expensive and much cheaper than buying them from the NPC store. Even Nie Yan had to sigh at the prices in the NPC store: they were too black!
Nie Yan traded Dela's Magic Device Book to Zi Yan. Zi Yan opened it and looked at it, revealing an unbelievable expression.
A legendary-level alchemy manual!
Where did he get this thing!
After thinking about it, it was normal for Nie Yan to have such great power, after all, he was the president of the Niuren Tribe.
"Work hard to do things well. If your output can reach the standards I set, I will increase your benefits." Nie Yan said. Generally, players who were in production professions were not very wealthy. Because production professions were too boring, most players who were in production professions wanted to earn some money to subsidize their families. Someone like Zi Yan, who could get such a high salary, was doing very well.
Zi Yan nodded quickly and said, "I will work hard." As a high school student, being able to get such a high salary from Faith was very remarkable. Even her parents were extremely surprised. Naturally, she would not easily give up such a good job.
"You guys be busy." Nie Yan explained all the relevant matters.
Niao Bu Sheng Dan found someone to prepare materials for Zi Yan.
He didn't know what Zi Yan's output would be. As an advanced alchemist, it should be no problem for her to produce dozens of Area Damage Magic Bombs every day. When Zi Yan accumulated a few days' worth, he could take these Area Damage Magic Bombs to level up.
Niao Bu Sheng Dan took Zi Yan and went to work busily.
How to make money to deal with the current crisis was really a headache. If he made money by doing quests, even a very difficult quest would only give dozens of gold coins. Dozens of gold coins were like a drop in the bucket for the current situation.
Nie Yan reorganized the auction house and shop. In a few days, the level 50 dungeon, the City of Ross, would open. He asked his subordinates to hoard some items that were about to be popular. With six auction houses, his ability to hoard items had suddenly become much stronger. Each time he predicted in advance, he could earn thousands or even tens of thousands of gold coins.
The war between the Niuren Tribe and Warblade Bloodlust would definitely not end in a few days and might even last more than ten days. Nie Yan's side could last at least ten days. He didn't know how long Warblade Bloodlust's side could last.
After wandering around the city, he went to some high-level, hidden maps to find some relatively rare things and put them up for auction in the auction house. He spent a lot of time running to the wilderness to hunt for treasure chests, just to earn some money and train his lockpicking skill.
While Nie Yan was searching for treasure chests outside, the Dark Portal reached the time to open.
The Dark Portal opened every five days, and the time was only about 20 minutes. If he missed it, he would have to wait another five days. Nie Yan thought for a long time: should he go to the underground world and take a look? Maybe there would be some unexpected gains! He might be able to earn a lot of money.
Nie Yan considered it for a long time and asked Sun to go get the Soggoth Shadow Fragments instead, while he prepared to enter the underground world. The communication between the two places was connected, and he could remotely command the situation in Calore City.
"You're going to the underground world?" Guo Huai asked in surprise when he heard Nie Yan's words.
"Yes, I'm going to the underground world," Nie Yan said firmly.
"When can you come back?" Guo Huai asked. If Nie Yan stayed in the underground world for too long, he was worried that the situation would get out of control if something happened.
"Five days later."
"So long?" Guo Huai frowned.
"The kill order is there. We can last at least ten days. We can maintain the status quo for these five days. Even if Warblade Bloodlust provokes us, let the brothers of the Niuren Tribe remain calm. As long as we hold on, we will definitely win!"
"Okay, then," Guo Huai nodded, he should be able to hold on for five days.
"Help me get a few backpacks, the bigger the space, the better. Collect them from the brothers of the Niuren Tribe. I want the backpacks with the largest space!" Nie Yan said. He was going to the underground world for so long, so he had to prepare enough consumables and other things. In addition, the larger the backpack space, the more things he could bring back.
"I'll go find them immediately!" Guo Huai said. He began to collect large-space backpacks from the members of the Niuren Tribe. There were so many powerful players in the Niuren Tribe, so it was normal to occasionally get some backpacks with relatively large space.
Guo Huai sent a message in the guild group chat to collect backpacks. Hearing that Nie Yan needed them urgently, many guild players replied immediately.
"How big of a backpack does Boss Nie Yan need?"
"I have a 30-slot one here."
"How could Boss Nie Yan take a fancy to a 30-slot one!"
"I have a 36-slot one here."
"I have one here too."
"I have a 40-slot backpack here."
......
Guo Huai returned equipment or guild contribution points of equal value to each member who contributed a backpack. After counting, there were a total of two 40-slot backpacks and two 36-slot backpacks. These backpacks were considered very good at the current stage.
Knowing that Guo Huai had obtained so many backpacks, Nie Yan quickly whispered to him, "That's enough. I have a 40-slot backpack here too. Mail everything to my personal warehouse."
Soon, Nie Yan received the backpacks sent by Guo Huai and equipped them.
Nie Yan went to buy a large number of consumables, including some necessary scrolls and so on. His bandages had been upgraded to advanced, and he could use Runic Cloth to make advanced combat bandages, which recovered 200 health points per second for ten seconds, and could not be interrupted for the first 3 seconds. The advanced combat bandage had a cooldown time of 5 minutes.
Nie Yan bought a large number of Runic Cloth and made three sets of advanced combat bandages, which should be enough for five days.
In addition to combat bandages, various consumables were also packed in sets, filling five large backpacks, leaving only five empty spaces in the total of 172 backpack slots. Some empty spaces had to be left in the backpack, otherwise, if he saw equipment and the backpack was full, he would have to throw things away.
After explaining the matters in Calore City, Nie Yan went to a quiet corner and opened the Dark Portal.
A black gate of light appeared in the air in front of Nie Yan, exuding a dark aura. This was a force that penetrated space.
The Dark Portal led to the distant underground world!
Nie Yan looked inside. A profound force was guiding him. He raised his foot and stepped in. The space fluctuated violently, and his figure disappeared into the Dark Portal.
