“Honorable Demon Hunter, Great Scholar, Quinn, a squad leader of the Carol City Guards, salutes you. Is there anything I can do for you?” A city guard captain in golden standard military armor walked up to Nie Yan and asked respectfully, not daring to overstep in the slightest.

The city guard captain’s respect for Nie Yan was evident.

Hearing the city guard captain being so polite to Nie Yan, the Triumph Empire players nearby were astonished, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.

Demon Hunter? Great Scholar? Were these all Nie Yan’s titles?

They only knew that Nie Yan was strong and had a high respect value in Carol City, even being able to enter the city while red-named, but they never expected Nie Yan to have such amazing titles, even to the point where he could command the city guards.

Being surrounded by such a large group of high-level city guards, they were all terrified, wondering what they would face next.

Nie Yan’s cold gaze swept over these Triumph Empire people, and they felt a chill run down their spines.

“Captain Quinn, they insulted me. According to the laws of Carol City, what is the sentence for insulting a Demon Hunter and a Great Scholar?” Nie Yan asked, looking at Squad Leader Quinn. He would definitely not let go of this opportunity to scheme against Triumph Empire.

“Honorable Demon Hunter, Great Scholar, according to the laws of Carol City, they will be imprisoned for 1-5 days. The main offenders must be imprisoned for at least 3 days. If they resist, the city guards have the right to impose additional punishment,” Quinn said, looking at the Triumph Empire players with a majestic aura that prevented them from having any thoughts of resistance.

To be enemies with level 60-70 city guards was simply courting death.

If they logged off, they would still be arrested when they logged back on. If they ran out of the city, they would be considered fugitives, wanted by all major cities, unable to return to the city forever, and endlessly pursued by city guards.

Compared to these consequences, they could only accept the city guards’ judgment.

Po Tian finally understood that he had been schemed against. Nie Yan had planned this all along. He never expected that even his angry cursing of Nie Yan would be used against him. His face darkened, and he stared at Nie Yan with wolf-like eyes. He still had some composure, knowing that saying too much now would only lead to more mistakes, potentially lengthening his stay in prison. He silently cursed Nie Yan.

Imprisoning Po Tian for three days was enough. A large group of Triumph Empire experts and executives were also imprisoned, leaving no one who had cursed Nie Yan! With these people gone, Triumph Empire would fall into a state of complete disorder and chaos for the next few days. Nie Yan would go back and see if Guo Huai and Ban Xing De Hu Li could make some moves. This was a great opportunity!

The struggle between Triumph Empire and Niu Ren Tribe was unscrupulous, and both sides spared no effort to deal with their opponents.

By the time Po Tian came out three days later, the fortress war would be over!

“I demand that sanctions be imposed on those who insulted me. Send them to prison,” Nie Yan said. The city guards came over and took the players away one by one. The players in front of the Triumph Empire guild headquarters were immediately reduced by eighty or ninety percent, with as many as one hundred and sixty players being taken away. Nie Yan wondered if the Carol City prison would be filled to capacity.

Nie Yan couldn’t help but think that he had made a profit this time.

After the commotion at the Triumph Empire guild headquarters, peace was restored.

Even the guild leader had been taken away, so how could the remaining players dare to provoke Nie Yan?

Nie Yan looked towards the Shadow Killer in the distance. That guy looked at Nie Yan, smiled indifferently, as if everything that had happened here had nothing to do with him. He entered stealth mode and disappeared without a trace.

Nie Yan searched with his gaze, but could no longer find Shadow Killer. This guy seemed to have never appeared at all.

What high concealment!

Shadow Killer never revealed too much in front of people. He was challenging Nie Yan!

Nie Yan understood that if he encountered Shadow Killer somewhere in the wild one day, it would definitely be a fierce battle. He also wanted to see just how strong this legendary and mysterious guy, the boss of the number one studio in the country, really was.

Thinking of what happened just now, Nie Yan felt secretly pleased. Po Tian was probably going to suffer. With his fiery temper, he wondered if he could stay in prison. Triumph Empire had been played badly this time. Nie Yan glanced in the direction of the Triumph Empire headquarters, then left directly and headed towards the Starry Night Potion Shop.

Soon, Nie Yan received a lot of messages.

“Awesome, you’re ruthless enough to send Po Tian directly to prison. It seems he won’t be able to participate in tomorrow’s fortress war.” Ban Xing De Hu Li said excitedly. Holy Light Flames originally had to rely on Triumph Empire. Due to the cooperative relationship between the two guilds, Triumph Empire would definitely send out its elites to assist Holy Light Flames, but now, the elites on Triumph Empire’s side had been crippled by Nie Yan, and many people were stuck in prison. The possibility of the Holy Roman Empire and Niu Ren Tribe capturing the fortress had immediately increased by several levels.

“Is the fortress war confirmed for tomorrow?” Nie Yan asked. Since the expansion pack had just been released, some things would definitely be moved forward, such as the fortress war.

“I just received the message that it’s at 21:00 tomorrow, don’t forget,” Ban Xing De Hu Li said. He was even more confident about the fortress war.

Nie Yan nodded and said, “Don’t worry, Niu Ren Tribe will participate on time.”

Guo Huai also sent a message.

“Nie Yan, I received a message from the brothers below. You’re fierce enough to send Po Tian and his group to prison. There’s almost a cheer in the Niu Ren Tribe guild group chat,” Guo Huai said. Thinking about how much Niu Ren Tribe had suffered at the hands of Triumph Empire before, this was really satisfying.

Indestructible Scoundrel, Xia Chong Yu Bing, and others also sent messages, all of them excited. Sending Po Tian to prison was too awesome.

Looking at everyone’s excited words, Nie Yan smiled wryly. He walked through the alleys to a quiet, deserted place. He wanted to see the Faulkner Warhorse he had just obtained.

Nie Yan chanted a spell and used the Summon Horse skill on the Shadow Plunderer. A light flashed, and a tall steed appeared in front of Nie Yan.

This Faulkner Warhorse was the same as he had seen in videos in his previous life, with a heroic appearance, taller than Nie Yan himself, with reddish-brown fur, pure without any impurities, and some important parts of its body covered with silver-white armor, giving people a feeling of power. Its eyes, like black gemstones, sparkled with agility.

The Faulkner Warhorse snorted a hot breath, lowered its head, and rubbed against Nie Yan, seeking his caress.

Nie Yan stroked the horse’s neck, and a feeling of intimacy surged in his heart. Because he had summoned it, there was something like telepathy between him and the Faulkner Warhorse, allowing him to command it.

“Buddy, from now on you’re my mount,” Nie Yan murmured. This Faulkner Warhorse was very intelligent.

Nie Yan looked at the Faulkner Warhorse’s attributes. When a player rode the Faulkner Warhorse, they could not attack enemies. Most mounts could not attack enemies, only a few rare mounts could, and of course those mounts were more expensive.

The Faulkner Warhorse was only used as a mount, increasing the player’s speed by 300% when riding it. But even this 300% speed was extremely precious to players! An ordinary mount that could increase speed by 100% was already extremely rare.

Having a land mount could save players a lot of time, not having to waste time on the road, and having more time to level up than others, so their levels would naturally be higher. Especially when traveling between cities and towns, having a warhorse could save a lot of money.

This tall steed could travel a thousand miles a day, allowing Nie Yan to freely travel between various leveling maps. As for traveling between cities, Nie Yan didn’t need the Faulkner Warhorse at all, because he could freely travel between major cities without paying any teleportation fees. He could even go to the Saturn Empire’s royal city to buy some rare and unique items.

Seeing someone coming from a distance, Nie Yan put away the Faulkner Warhorse.

After seeing the warhorse, he headed towards the Starry Night Potion Shop. Along the way, he encountered many player shops, including potion shops, equipment shops, etc. Although the levels were not very high, it at least proved that the commerce of Carol City was slowly prospering.

Under Nie Yan’s remote command, he had dozens of shops open in major cities, including potion shops, alchemy shops, etc. Due to his Demon Hunter title, Niao Bu Sheng Dan received great discounts when opening shops in major cities. Plus, Nie Yan was now a Great Scholar, so if anyone dared to cause trouble in his shops, they would be directly taken away by the city guards. Who would be so foolish?

In addition to those dozens of shops, Nie Yan also had some land that he planned to upgrade into shops and then rent out at a certain price. Recently, more than a dozen people had come to him to rent shops, and the prices were still being negotiated. Nie Yan told Niao Bu Sheng Dan to wait until the credit point exchange was opened. Since the credit point exchange hall would be opened near the Starry Night Potion Shop, the surrounding shops would appreciate in value, and the rent would definitely be more expensive then. The rent alone would allow Nie Yan to make a fortune.

Also, his level had dropped miserably this time, so he could only catch up next time he logged on.

The expansion pack would be launched tomorrow, and Nie Yan had to be prepared.

The sealed history was about to begin, and many things would be opened up. Nie Yan didn’t know how things would develop in the future, so he could only wait and see.

Looking at the official website, there was still no one competing with Nie Yan for the Carol City Central Auction House and the Carol City Mercenary Auction House. Anyway, he had a phone, so even if he logged off, he could keep an eye on the transaction prices of the two auction houses on the official website.

Nie Yan was still continuing to collect gold coins. The total amount of gold coins he had on hand had exceeded six thousand, which was enough to snatch the two major auction houses, so he didn’t worry about others bidding against him.

Nie Yan went to the Starry Night Potion Shop and arranged various matters. Seeing that it was almost time, he logged off.
