Chapter 238
238 Chapter 238: My Territory, my rules
There was still more than half an hour before the “Post-disaster reconstruction”mission ended. The few of them seemed to have an endless supply of building materials in their backpacks. They were completely comparing their submission speed.
Under the cursing of the players in the world channel, Meng Jingtian quickly rushed to the third place on the contribution board.
Each submission of building materials could only be 1,000. Among the few players around Meng Jingtian, the first and second place on the contribution board were also present. They continuously confirmed the submission of building materials and stared at Meng Jingtian cautiously, unwilling to give in.
It seemed that they had hidden quite a lot. Originally, the first ranked player on the contribution board only had 580,000 contribution points. Now that they had crazily submitted, the contribution points of the first ranked player had risen to 1,030,000!
There were still ten minutes before the mission ended. Seeing that he was still 200,000 contribution points away from the first ranked player, Meng Jingtian frowned. He was afraid that he would not be able to catch up!
The top few on the contribution list were not lacking in building materials, but in the speed of submission.
Looking at the crazy changes in the numbers on the contribution list, the top 10 rankings also rose and fell crazily. The players who were originally paying attention to this list because of Meng Jingtian could not help but stop cursing and stare at the list nervously.
The final period of time was the most intense period of the competition for the list!
They couldn’t help but turn from cursing Meng Jingtian to caring about the final ranking.
“Do you guys think Meng Shen will be able to reach first place if this goes on?”
“I saw that he posted a purchase message yesterday. I’m afraid he received quite a lot of materials. It shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
“The top few are all rich! I saw that he received materials for quite a few days. I told you that there’s more than that. He’s saving it for the final ranking!”
..
Meng Jingtian had been single for 20 years, so he was quite fast in submitting materials. Now, he had surpassed the second place and was steadily catching up to the first place.
However, according to his estimation, he didn’t have enough time to catch up to the first place.
Meng Jingtian rolled his eyes and couldn’t help but think of other ways.
“Mao Sheng, look, I have enough building materials. Are you looking down on me by accepting others?”Meng Jingtian noticed the city Lord of Fire Sparrow City who submitted the quest.
This fire sparrow city was his territory!
Hearing Meng Jingtian’s words, the castellan of Fire Sparrow City, who was happily collecting building materials, trembled. At least he wasn’t so scared that he knelt down.
‘Ding! The castellan of Fire Sparrow city has rejected your quest submission, and his friendliness towards you is-10!’
Almost at the same time, the other players who were submitting the quest items heard a system notification, and they couldn’t help but be stunned.
What the hell? The NPC rejected their quest submission? Friendliness dropped by 10! The quest time was not up yet, they were all staring at the time!
Moreover, to lose friendliness after completing the NPC Quest, wasn’t this too F * cking weird?
Meng Jingtian glanced at the dumbfounded players and sped up the submission of the quest materials.
The other players saw that Meng Jingtian was still submitting the quest materials and naturally guessed that it was Meng Jingtian’s doing. They all glared at him, “What did you do? This isn’t fair...”
“Fair? Didn’t you guys see the game’s promotion before you entered the game? This is an unfair game to begin with. Everything depends on luck and ability.”
Meng Jingtian saw that the materials he submitted had surpassed the original first place and obtained the first place on the contribution board. He calmly answered their questions.
“You’re the young master of the Mystical Pill Pavilion’s branch, right? Then can you tell the npcs in the mystical pill pavilion not to sell medicinal pills to any player?”Meng Jingtian looked at the information on the original first place and asked him.
“This... I can set up a blacklist. So What?”The player hesitated for a moment before replying.
Not only could he set up a blacklist, but he had also set up a blacklist for the players who had offended him.
“So What? Then I can also tell him not to accept your materials. It’s as simple as that!”Meng Jingtian shrugged and smiled.
This time, the people around them looked at each other, speechless.
They were doing well in the game, and their identities weren’t bad either. Naturally, they knew the convenience of their identities.
Meng Jingtian’s identity was that of the god of fire sparrow city. This had already been known from the previous system announcements.
The problem was that the identity of a god was too special in human society. No one knew what kind of identity a god was and what benefits they had.
Even Warhawk had yet to fully understand what sort of position a god held in this game. Apart from their powerful strength, what other special rights did they have.
However, these players had now seen that even the highest-ranking NPC City Lord of Fire Sparrow City had to listen to the orders of a God like Meng Jingtian!
It seemed that a god was not as simple as they thought. They only had to bow to him when they needed him, and ignore him when they didn’t need him.
In the 23rd century, the gods in the real world were only in this situation. As a result, the players’impression of the gods had already solidified.
In their eyes, other than being a synonym for power, the relationship between gods and humans was just a matter of faith. When needed, they would be highly worshipped for comfort, but when not needed, they would be thrown to the back of their minds.
“Meng Shen is number one!”
“F * ck! Did the other players get stuck at the same time? Why did their numbers stop increasing in the last few minutes?”
“Ai! Meng Shen is still number one for all eternity! I really want to see when Meng Shen doesn’t get number one.”
“Wake up, brother! As long as it’s a ranking, is it possible that Meng Shen isn’t Number One?”
“That’s not necessarily true! For example, the battle between the righteous and the evil. I’m afraid the evil faction will win this time.”
“I really don’t know what Meng Shen is thinking. If he makes a move, Nangong Lin or the evil faction players won’t have a chance at all, okay?”
..
The players in the world channel started discussing again. As they reached the end, they couldn’t help but sigh.
“Ding! System announcement: the post-disaster Reconstruction Mission has ended. The system will now calculate the rewards according to the contribution points. All players participating in the mission are invited to the Messenger’s office to receive the mission rewards!”
The moment the event ended, the system announcement rang out as well.
Meng Jingtian left behind a few people who were sighing. They turned around and went to the Messenger Office of Fire Sparrow City to collect the reward.
“Ding!”! “Congratulations, you have obtained the items: Fire Sparrow City South city street 1-5 land lease, grade-2 forging workshop construction blueprint × 1, grade-3 green brick city wall construction blueprint × 1, Grade-2 bedroom construction blueprint, Grade-2 Kitchen Construction Blueprint, Grade-3 Flower Garden Construction Blueprint, Grade-2 Green brick water well construction blueprint, Dragon and Phoenix embossed sandalwood bed × 1, mahogany table and chair set × 1, yellow pear eight immortals table × 1...”
The reward items were all sent to him in an email. After Meng Jingtian confirmed that he had retrieved them, he heard a long list of system notifications. The reward items fell into his backpack one after another.
...
These forging workshop and city wall blueprints would probably only be useful after the city was built. Meng Jingtian directly brought them back to the mountain and river Pearl and placed them in the warehouse.
After that, he used the remaining blueprints that he could use and used the furniture that he had received as rewards to decorate the space within the mountain and river pearl.
