How Level Zero Devil Destroys Player Experience

I took out a bottle of medicine from somewhere and asked.

"Hey hey hey hey!" Tris was stunned for a moment, then her eyes widened, and she quickly started searching in the cabinet below, "How...how is it possible? Rongla clearly hid the breast enhancement potion in the cabinet."

"Oh, it's still there?" Cui Si quickly took out the potion she had made before from the cabinet. Not seeing Rong La's helpless expression, she subconsciously asked, "What is that in the Demon King's hand?"

Chapter 42: City Core

"It's just a random potion of similar color from the surrounding shelves."

I casually put the potion in my hand on the table next to me and took the so-called breast enhancement potion from the stunned Tris. "Tsk tsk, you really haven't given up yet."

"Demon... Lord Demon, you actually lied to me!"

Only then did Tracey react and quickly stood up and tried to take her precious potion back from me.

However, I dodged it and said, "I can give it back to you, but I think the Eye of Ugal should be added with a few pieces of Kagui metal. What do you think, Tris?"

Seeing my expression, it was obvious that I knew her background. Tris couldn't help swallowing, "That...that..."

"Hey, stop bullying..."

Rongla next to me wanted to speak, but I interrupted her, "Be polite to me, girl. Don't you want it?"

"Who would want something so boring?" Rong La was stunned and looked away unnaturally.

"That's strange. Why did Tris make two bottles? Ah, I see. It must be for Satasia. Tris is really kind. I will tell her the good news right away."

In the end, both Tris and Rongla were defeated, and the farce came to an end when they used several pieces of treasured Kagyu metal to forge four additional abilities for the Eye of Ugar.

"Wouldn't it be better if we did this earlier?" After taking the modified Eye of Ugar from Rongla, whose eyes were still filled with resentment, I shrugged and said, "Okay, then I won't bother you guys to verify the effect of the potion yourself."

Just before leaving, I suddenly thought of something, "Oh, by the way, let me kindly remind you, although I don't know much about the author of the book you read, but I know that her combat effectiveness in certain aspects was still A level when she published this edition of the book."

The two little guys who were originally expecting me to leave were stunned for a moment, looked at the potion refined in front of them, and immediately showed a look of doubt, and seemed a little desperate.

"Forget it, forget it. I won't lie to you anymore." Looking at their expressions, I couldn't bear it and told them the truth, "Actually, it's at the E level."

But before Rongla and Cuisi could show a look of relief, someone's voice that sounded like the devil's whisper rang out again.

"But, she is not only a yuri fan, but also a heavy flat-breasted fan who only likes loli."

After saying this, I left the two of them staring at each other in bewilderment.

Although I really wanted to stay and see what would happen after the two of them used the so-called breast enhancement potion, I suddenly received news from Hill just now, so I thought about the more important things, so I used the Demon King's ability to teleport back to the Demon King's castle in a remote corner of the alchemy workshop.

"Your Highness."

As soon as I appeared in the lounge of the Demon King's Castle, I heard Hill's familiar greeting from the side, and at the same time there was a clear and gentle voice.

"Hello, Lord Demon King." The Black Spider Queen Edith, who had transformed into a human form, bowed slightly to me.

The reason why the Black Spider Queen appeared here and looked like she had become my subordinate was of course related to my own plan at that time.

After the attack and defense of the ruins, many Constantina players vented their resentment on the Mist Forest, and in just a dozen days, they pushed the progress to over 90%.

Just when the Black Spider Queen was unable to hold on and was forced to show up to repel the players, I arrived at the right time to destroy the teleportation array set up by the monastery and rescued the Black Spider clan in the Mist Forest.

The alchemist played by Hill also informed the players that the teleportation array was destroyed and the power of the evil spirits was fading.

Faced with this copy that started off well but ended poorly, many players were naturally very dissatisfied and complained on the forum. However, they received a response from the official that there was no problem and the matter was left unresolved as time passed.

As for the Black Spider Queen, she was just as I expected. She was very grateful for my savior-like behavior and brought her subordinates from the Mist Forest to join the Demon King's Castle.

I didn't impose many restrictions on her. I let her and her subordinates continue to live in the Mist Forest as before, and just help me deal with the surrounding matters occasionally.

So after these two months of getting along, the Black Spider Queen has become more respectful of me. Little did she know that the culprit who caused the turmoil in the Hidden Mist Forest was the pink-haired creature in front of her. Of course, I couldn't let her know this.

Sometimes a "white lie" is necessary.

"Hill, Edith, how is your investigation going in that city?"

I sat down on the sofa, enjoying the black tea brewed by Hill while asking the two of them.

After the Heart of Herontis was upgraded to level three and gained the function of building a city, I have been busy collecting energy for the past two months. However, in addition to energy, there is another item that is necessary for building a city.

That is the city core. The city core is the most important key to a city. Only with this item can the necessary energy be provided for the teleportation array, defense shield, wizard tower, etc. in the city. It can be said to be the source of most of the city’s energy.

Similar to this item is the fortress core, which was the key for the guilds in the previous life to open the fortress. Although he was not clear about how to obtain the city core, he remembered how to obtain the former very clearly.

The guild needs to complete a series of national tasks issued by the empire to obtain them, and the difficulty varies depending on the type.

The highest level is a large fortress, and each guild can only own one at a time. The resources and gold coins produced every day can provide a guild with huge profits.

But in contrast, the corresponding task is also extremely difficult and challenging. In my previous life, I remember that in the Orwyn Empire, only four large guilds including Storm Wind mobilized a large number of manpower to complete it and built a large fortress of their own.

In addition to missions, there is another way to obtain the fortress core, or to be more precise, to rob it, which is to declare war on the fortress and launch a war against a certain guild's fortress.

If you fail, you will have to pay war reparations, but if the party declaring war wins, they can do whatever they want with the fortress, including abandoning it and getting the fortress core. However, generally speaking, this method will not be used, because once abandoned, only fewer resources can be obtained, so most of the winning parties will choose to directly occupy the opponent's fortress.

Except for those large guilds that are hostile to each other, if a guild occupies multiple fortresses, they will generally choose to radiate from one fortress to the surrounding areas to form an iron barrel-like posture, so that they can respond easily if they encounter a hostile guild launching a war.

Therefore, if two large guilds declare war and capture a piece of the other party's "iron barrel", they will most likely choose to abandon it directly, making the other party's previous investment completely in vain, rather than occupying that piece and being sandwiched by the fortresses around the hostile guild.

Unless it really comes to a point where both sides are desperate, but those big guilds have too many concerns and generally speaking they would never go to such an extent. In my previous life, I have seen very few cases of such a fierce confrontation.

Chapter 43: The Voice of Rebellion

Although we haven't reached the version that opens fortress battles yet, and missions won't be opened, the fight for the fortress core obviously gave me an idea, that is, the city core should also be obtained by capturing the city.

After this idea was finally confirmed by Alice, I immediately set my sights on a city about forty kilometers northwest of the Hidden Mist Forest.

Although there are smaller towns around that are easier to conquer, it is obvious that this area was built with the city as the core and is under the jurisdiction of the ruler of that city.

Those small towns can be attacked, but it will definitely alarm the enemy and cause them to send troops to assist. This will alert the enemy and make this force pay attention to the newly rising Demon City. It will be obvious what will happen then.

Since a bigger one will come if you defeat the smaller one, why not just start with the bigger one? Besides, given the current development of the Demon King's City, there is no guarantee that there is no chance of winning.

This was confirmed by Hill and Edith, the two people he had sent to investigate earlier.

"That city is called Berghead. It is a hub city on the southeastern border of the Demon Empire, Aubenro. It is currently under the jurisdiction of the Blood Eagle Lord, Ginnis. Except for the personal guards who have reached level 90, most of the garrison forces in the city are around level 60-70."

"Demon Empire Obenro?"

Although I didn't know much about the dark camp in my previous life, I knew that the dark camp was divided into five empires like the light camp: two demon empires, one demon empire, one undead empire and one black beast empire.

After the fall of the Demon King's city, Herontis, in the battle decades ago, it was divided up by the five empires and sandwiched on the border between the two demon empires.

"If it's the border, if we move fast enough, the news shouldn't be passed on very quickly, giving us enough time to develop." I thought about it and asked the two of them, "What do you think our chances of winning are if we face off?"

Edith showed a hesitant look, but Hill didn't have any extra thoughts. He calmly gave a conclusion, "Your Highness, I think it should be around 50%."

"Fifty percent?"

Although the monsters under my command have been greatly strengthened after two months of development, there are more than a hundred leader-level monsters, some of which are over level 60 and 70. Moreover, Satasia and Edith have also been upgraded to level 60 with the extra energy I spent.

But when dealing with a city of the size of Nalton, the chance of winning is only 50%.

Besides, Hill must have taken into account all the strength under the Demon King's City.

However, if we really go to war with Berghead, we cannot use all these troops. Otherwise, all the efforts from the launch of the Era to now will be in vain. Even if we occupy Berghead, we can only make up for some of it. This is obviously not in line with my original intention.

But even after hearing this conclusion from Hill, I was not discouraged at all. On the contrary, this was also within my expectations. "It seems that we can only start from the inside."

"Edith, how is the investigation going on with the matter I asked you to do?"

As a dominant monster, Edith naturally possesses unique abilities. Not only can she create illusions with spider webs containing neurotoxins, but she can also control monsters like spiders that are weaker than her. These little creatures can all become Edith's "eyes", allowing her to see many things that ordinary people cannot see.

This is why I asked Edith to go with Hill to investigate, and let Edith control the little spider to sneak into the city. Although there were not too many spies deployed to avoid being noticed by the Blood Eagle Lord Guinness, it was enough for Edith to obtain a lot of information.

"I'm sorry, Lord Demon King. My abilities are limited. Although there are signs of a rebel organization in the city, I can't find out the specific target. I can only feel that some sounds come from inside a bar called Nightingale." Edith replied.

According to Hill's previous investigation, due to the bad temper of the Blood Eagle Lord Guinness, there have been some voices of resistance in Berghead in recent years. However, due to Guinness' control of the main military forces in the city, all of them were suppressed.

Although these voices have not been completely eliminated and they have quietly established rebellious organizations, they are very small in scale. And because Guinness's ruling methods have become increasingly harsh in recent times, these voices are showing signs of rising again, but they are all carried out in secret.

This is why I chose Berghead. It is located on the border of the empire and close to the Demon King's Castle. The most important thing is that there is a rebellious organization inside that we can cooperate with. However, we must also be on guard against this organization.

"It doesn't matter. This is enough." At most, I can spend more time. After all, I don't have to build a city right away when I have enough energy. I can use it to enhance the development of other aspects of the Demon King's City. "Then is there any chance to connect with that tavern?"

Seeing that I had no intention of blaming her, Edith was relieved. "I found out that there is a caravan that is related to the Nightingale Tavern. They will return to Berghead tomorrow and will pass through the road in front of the Mist Forest."

"Very good, Edith, you stay here. If there is any unusual movement in the city, tell us immediately." I nodded. "Hill, let's set off early tomorrow."

After giving Edith and Hill more detailed instructions for the arrangements, I logged off as it was getting late.

"Ha, it's so tiring to be busy with so many things." I got up from my bed in the bedroom and stretched to reveal my petite but beautiful figure. Because it was Friday, I returned home to rest for a rare time.

Of course, my aunt and cousin also had a rare day off, but they were busy with some things. When I passed by the study just now and heard my aunt's weak voice coming from inside, I remembered that my father seemed to have asked us to help organize the information in his study yesterday.

"Oh no, I have to go back to my room and pretend I'm still playing games."

Just when I was about to sneak back to my room, my mother, who noticed the commotion in the living room, found me. "Hey, Xiaotong, why are you here so early today? The meal isn't ready yet. Why don't you help Xiaorou and Youyou clean up dad's study room first?"

"Um……"

Finally, she could only helplessly come to the study. Seeing this, her aunt, who had been lying powerless, immediately perked up. "Hey, I knew Tongtong felt sorry for her. Come, these need to be sorted out. I'm going to watch TV first~"

However, before I could react, or before my aunt handed me the large stack of documents, my aunt next to me tapped my head and said, "Don't think about being lazy, Youyou, there's not much time left, hurry up."

"Xiaotong, go sort out the pile of information over there. There are marks in the upper left corner. Just classify them according to the different marks."

My aunt pointed to a smaller pile of documents nearby and said to me.

"Yeah." I nodded, and according to what my aunt said, I sorted the documents into categories and put them into different file bags.

Not long after, my aunt couldn't sit still anymore.

Chapter 44: Expansion and Invitation to Issue Shares

"Xiaotong, don't forget, you promised us that you would lead our team building in a few days." My aunt came to me with a pile of information and touched my arm.

Apparently Sister Changan had already told Sister Fengye what she had said, and then she explained the matter to the other people in the guild.

Originally, the aunt wanted to blame her aunt for being lazy, but she became interested after hearing this and chuckled, "Xiaotong, remember to show your authority as the president. Many people joined with expectations for you, the mysterious and lovely president."

What kind of dignity does it have? The dignity of a mascot...

I couldn't help but roll my eyes. "So wouldn't it be better if you didn't use me as publicity in the first place? And I doubt that people who come in with this idea have ulterior motives."

I already have a bunch of lolicon people under my command, and I don't want my guild to become another group of lolicon people.

"Isn't this great? This way, more people will know how cute my daughter Tongtong is, right?"

My aunt giggled, but she also thought of something, "Speaking of which, should we relax the standards or set up a branch? This way, we can attract more people, and then we may even develop into a large guild like Storm and Imperial Epic."

The first part seems to be somewhat feasible, but the second part is purely a delusion.

I couldn't help but roll my eyes. "I can barely manage this small group of people. Are you trying to tire me to death by hiring more people?"

"You make it sound like you've been in charge." My aunt rolled her eyes at me. "Besides, have you forgotten that there's a famous talented graduate student in the Department of Management at CUHK here, Sister An Rou?"

"Ah?" Hearing her aunt's voice, the aunt was stunned.

"Auntie, do you want my aunt to help manage it?"

I came to my senses and remembered that my aunt was indeed a prominent figure in CUHK, just as my aunt said. Not only that, after graduating from graduate school in her previous life, she joined a famous multinational group and held an important position in project management.

Although I had asked my aunt to handle some matters in the guild before, given Alice's current scale, such small affairs would certainly not reflect the advantages of management.

If Alice expands into a second-rate or even first-rate guild in the future, with a larger scale, asking my aunt to help might really save me a lot of effort. Although Sister Maple Leaf is now in charge of most of the guild's affairs, compared to management, she is obviously more suitable for leading the elite group.

"Yes."

Without waiting for her aunt's response, she put down the materials in her hand, took her aunt's arm, and continued, "And Sister An Rou, don't you have a project assigned by the professor? Isn't this a good opportunity to simulate practice?"

The young aunt thought about it carefully and felt that it made sense. However, she was still a little hesitant when faced with this situation. Perhaps she was not confident in her ability. She scratched her cheek and said, "But, will I be able to do it alone..."

"Who said you're left alone? Aren't there some of Sister An Rou's juniors in the guild? You can ask them to help you. It will help them accumulate experience for the future."

My aunt counted on her fingers, "Sister Fengye can help, or you can ask Sister Qiuru. Yaoyao, Cantou, and Xiaoqing have experience as class monitors and league committee members. Mimi, Ayuan, and Mushui also have experience in the student union. And most importantly."

"With me, a young, beautiful and invincible girl, here, it won't be a problem at all."

I simply ignored the last sentence, "What do you think, aunt?"

"It sounds like it's possible." The young lady smiled slightly, with a confident look on her face, which made her look very charming. "I don't have any talent for fighting monsters and leveling up, but I can still help with management."

"It's just that the reputation of our guild is a problem. If it's not famous, even if we relax the requirements, not many people will be attracted to join the guild." The aunt raised a key point.

After all, only a small number of lolita fans are attracted by the title of Lolita Guild President. Most players are concerned about the guild's strength, welfare benefits, and fame as my aunt mentioned.

"Well, I'll figure out a way to do that. Anyway, you and your aunt should start by slowly expanding the size of the guild."
