Chapter 155 Welcome To My Territory
Hikaru listened to Selvih's explanation, he felt like he understood it and at the same time he didn't understand it. Selvih saw that he was confused so she smiled and said: "Don't worry, I can help you manage the territory well even though the territory Will accommodate many players, this place is being taken care of by me, Saraya and the others, so no one will be able to harm our territory."
Selvih used the word 'our territory' instead of 'your territory', which proves that Selvih had also considered this place her home.
Hikaru of course noticed this, he nodded and said, "So if you need anything just tell me, I'll try to fulfill it."
Selvih said: "First of all, you need to level up Saraya to the highest level possible so that she can have the power to defend the territory. Next, we will come up with a plan, you just have to do what we say."
Hikaru nodded, he didn't know how to manage or operate a territory anyway, he just had to do what everyone said.
After a long discussion, Hikaru used his Void Lord status to issue an announcement to all the players.
[Void Lord: Hello players, I am the Void Lord.
First of all, I would like to thank all the players who have supported me in building the territory. Although the relationship between us is that of business partners, it is a win-win relationship. However, without you guys, I wouldn't be able to build the initial territory so quickly.
Although my domain is in the process of being completed, nevertheless, I still welcome all players to my domain to come and take residence.
I can provide you with a safe place to live with clear laws, and accompanying quests and rewards that enable you to live on your own without relying on anyone.
Of course, I'm not forcing you. Taking shelter in my domain is obligatory.
My location will be attached below with 1,000 Misty Lamps for the first 1,000 people to read this letter.
Welcome to my domain.]
After sending this message, Hikaru sighed, he hoped that everything would go according to plan. Currently, the main house of the territory was nearing completion, Darnag would build the next residential area, and the residential area needed to have some occupants.
Therefore, in Selvih's opinion moving players to this place as soon as possible was a good idea.
Currently, Hikaru could not level up Saraya because it required 50 billion soul points to level her from level 10 to level 30, which was a huge number. However, Hikaru felt that he could quickly earn 50 billion soul points. no to be more precise, He felt he could earn way more than 50 billion.
After the meeting ended, Saraya, Anno and Selvih all refused to leave, until each of them left with satisfied faces, and a day had passed before they left.
Hikaru wanted to cry, he felt like he was about to turn into a tool to produce milk for them. However, Hikaru sighed and immediately got to work because there were two treasure chests waiting for him outside.
…
After all the players received the message coming from Hikaru, no, to be more precise, the message coming from the Void Lord, all the players were once again boisterous.
[Did you guys receive a message from the Void Lord?]
[Of course, every player receives a notification from him.]
[What do you people think about it? Do you want to go there?]
[To tell the truth, I took a Misty Lamp and am going to the Void Lord's domain. At least, I can live there safely.]
[Aren't you worried about your territory being taken over by someone else?]
[Damn it! If you want to take my territory, do it, I don't care. Compared to defending the territory, I'm more afraid of starving to death or being killed by monsters.]
[The above player is right, even if the territory is lost, we can still be free players. If we want, we can also occupy other players' territories. But we only have one life.]
[That's right, I will also go to the Void Lord's place. There are no rules in the guild that I live in, strong players use their strength to suppress weak players. Compared to the current guilds that sprout like mushrooms after the rain, I choose to trust the Void Lord NPC.]
[Me too. Besides, the Void Lord also said that he will issue various quests and rewards.]
This time, in a cave somewhere on Misty World. A leading player stood at the entrance of the cave guarding it, in the cave was a group of about 100 players. However, the special thing was that these players were all female.
With the exception of the leading player who was guarding the cave, the other female users were all in a state of lethargy, exhaustion, or mental instability. They didn't have any equipment on them except for the spare Misty Lamp they carried.
If you pay close attention, there were many wounds and beatings on these female players. Some people were even beaten to the point that their faces were deformed, while some had their arms or legs broken, and they found it difficult to move.
"Norra, Norra…"
Suddenly, a girl in the group stood up and shouted. This girl was quite beautiful appearance-wise, fortunately she did not have too many injuries, in general her condition was fine.
The girl quickly weaved her way through the other girls in the party, and approached Norra and said, "Norra, did you see the general announcement for all the players?"
Norra was a girl over 170cm tall, she had an extremely slim body like a sports athlete. Although her body was not as glamorous as Selvih's or Tsuraguki's, she was still very beautiful and her body showed her flexibility and strength.
Norra has long brown hair, a slim face, white skin, blue eyes, and a high nose. She had an extreme personality and strong appearance, her beautiful face also showed a resilient temperament that stimulated the desire in men to conquer her.
Norra heard this and said, "I haven't seen it."
"Then you see, the Void Lord has a new announcement for all players."
Norra opened the bulletin board and read through the announcement that Hikaru had sent to all the players. After reading it, in contrast to the other girl's eager expression, Norra frowned again.
The other girl, seeing Norra's expression confused, asked, "What's the matter, Norra?"
Norra sighed and said, "Do you think we should go to the Void Lord's domain, Amile?"
Amile nodded and replied, "That's right."
Norra said, "Haven't the lessons of the past taught you something, Amile?"
Hearing that, Amile lowered her head in silence. Yes, they went through a lot of suffering.
In fact, the female players in the cave were all rescued by Norra. She had rescued a lot of girls from the hands of other male players.
In this lawless world, weak women would be turned into sexual toys and tools for male players.
They were treated like animals, they were raped, t mistreated, and were treated horribly like slaves. They were forced to mate with several men, and do other crazy and horrible things.
Norra was a female player, but she possessed a higher strength than the vast majority of other players. Before coming to this world, she was a police officer, that's why her sense of justice was very high.
When she saw women being abused by other men, she couldn't ignore it. Because of that, she saved many girls from that hell.
However, during the rescue and escape, because the health of the rescued women was still very weak, some of them were easily caught by male players or killed by monsters.
In the end, Norra could only lead over a hundred people to hide inside this cave.
Amile gritted her teeth, raised her head and said, "But we have no other option. Norra, look at everyone, they don't have the will to live anymore, they're tired, if we keep moving aimlessly like this, sooner or later we'll all be destroyed by monsters or we will fall into the hands of other players again."
"The Void Lord is different, he is an NPC, compared to all the people out there, he is more trustworthy. Also, since we get more food from selling our resources to him, should we be suspicious of an NPC?"
Norra shook her head at that: "Yes, we must be suspicious of everything including NPCs. Is an NPC supposed to help the player? Maybe this is a trap, and he is luring players to his domain, then taking over all of those players."
"For what?" Amile asked: "What is the Void Lord taking over all those players for?"
Norra, hearing Amile's question, could only say, "I… I don't know."
"You don't know, so why can't you trust the Void Lord for once? At least compared to the players out there, an NPC should be a hundred times more reliable."
"Amile, you don't understand."
"I don't understand? So should we continue living here? We don't have any resources left to sell or exchange for food. The remaining food is only enough to sustain us for the next 10 days. If we continue staying here, we will starve to death."
Norra glanced at the women inside the cave, they all sat still, their eyes blank, as if they no longer wanted to live.
Norra of course knew what she and the women here were up against. The only ones capable of fighting here were her and Amile.
If she continued staying in this place, she and Amile wouldn't be able to find enough food for everyone, the worst case scenario would be that they would all slowly starve to death.
If they moved, she was afraid that they would meet monsters or other bad players. At that time, their outcome was no better than starvation.
Norra thought for a long moment, then clicked on the Void Lord's location. From what she saw, it took 3 days to get from this place to the Void Lord's location.
Fortunately, the Void Lord left his location in the notice, otherwise, even if she rummaged through the fog for a year, she would not be able to find the Void Lord's location.
Norra took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I have a plan. I will go to the Void Lord's domain. If it is exactly like what the Void Lord said in the announcement, I will come back and bring you guys."
"If I can't come back or you receive bad news from me, lead everyone out of this place."
