Almighty Shopkeeper

Chapter 173 D2. Counties 2
Su Fu is not the first player to step into Zerata City. After notifying Zerata City of its opening on the first day, many players came here admiringly, and saw that this is the largest city known so far, and at the same time , In the area around the city of Zerata, they also learned that there are five cities in the Viscount territory, and the city of Ellenk in Kroll is one of them.

These cities are generally named after the lord's surname, so it is easy to understand that after the battle, the Acassius Empire, which gained control of the entire continent, distributed these pieces of land. The powerful nobles managed the territories under their jurisdiction for generations.

Basically nothing happened.

It's just that some remote areas, such as Haiye Town and seaside cities like Blue Shark Town, may be ignored.

Such a place is too barren, there is no need to put the center there.

There are also seaport cities on the mainland, just to the west of the mainland. Although the volcanic system is developed in that place, it is the only area that can be explored. It is also the place where pirates are the most rampant.

All the exiles, some who secretly evade pursuit, also live on the islands to the west of the mainland, and the strong have always maintained the inheritance of power.

The Lord of Fire may be dangerous, but he is also considered the most stable of the several elemental kings, except for the occasional volcanic eruption.

"Leader, let's go to the 'Keze' area over there first, it's where our players gather for the time being." Hearing that Su Fu was going to explore Zerata City, his subordinate said hastily.

"They are all there, you can exchange some information with them directly."

"Is that so? Let's go and have a look." As for how to explore Zerata City and grasp the information here, Su Fu is not too clear, so it's okay to go and see what other people have gained first.

After all, this is the territory of a legendary lord. Although the lord may still be in Elenke City, he still has to be careful not to do anything out of the ordinary, otherwise it would be bad if he was caught.

In fact, the information of the players has already been passed on layer by layer. The reason why the people above ignore it may be that they are affected, or it may be that the players are favored by the gods and they dare not act.

There are all kinds of possibilities.

Not long after walking, Su Fu, led by his subordinates, came to the player gathering place not far away.

This is a dilapidated street. The houses on both sides of the street seem to have been abandoned for a long time. It can be known that this street should be uninhabited.

In such a place, there is a street that is uninhabited, which is really magical, and it also brings some problems to this street.

However, the players were fearless, directly ignoring the abnormal situation on the street, and built a temporary stronghold here.

Originally, the street had been abandoned for a long time, but after being rebuilt by the players, the street has become completely new, and it is more luxurious and extravagant than some of the central streets in Zerata City.

"Hello, what do you need?" Here, some people have already set up shops to sell various things.

With the opening of Zerata City, some surrounding areas that were previously unexplorable can now be explored. These explorable areas naturally consume a lot of things like potions, weapons, and equipment, so it is normal for someone to open a shop and set up a stall. .

Su Fu took a few glances and found that they were all third-level things, which were of little use to him, and he didn't pay much attention to them. He mainly looked at the things and information provided by those who came back from exploring to judge the surrounding situation.

"What's the situation around you? You should ask those big teams. I just went to explore a jungle. The jungle was extremely dangerous. I almost didn't come out. If it wasn't for the help of a kind race, I would have lost my life."

"Sounds dangerous. Do you remember the location of that jungle? What's its name?"

By asking for information from people who explored different areas, Su Fu quickly sorted out the information on the eastern and southern parts of Zerata City.

The southeast direction is the road they came to Zerata City. There is nothing to introduce. The road passes through a canyon. Before there is a special force restriction, they cannot cross it. Now that the restriction is lifted, they can come naturally.

Part of the source of food for Zerata City is the plains to the east, where there is abundant grain, and there are extraordinary people who use their abilities to cultivate and increase grain production, which is already enough to feed millions of people.

At the same time, the five viscount territories nearby will contribute a large amount of food every year, and this part will also be stored, basically there is no shortage of food.

Even if it is meat, there is a vast pasture here, and a lot of meat animals are domesticated. The specific location should be in the west of the city. I haven't explored that far away, but I only got part of the information.

The south is the main area that players are currently exploring, and the south is a lush jungle, where several kinds of intelligent creatures live, and the communication with the city is fairly close, but it is not something that ordinary people in the city can see. People with powerful power, that is, the nobles and some special churches.

This jungle is called the Silent Jungle. There are some places in it that are very quiet and seem to hide some kind of special secret. The dangers that explorers encounter in the silent area are very terrifying, and usually cause heavy casualties.

No one can fully describe the monster, sounds really dangerous.

Inside the city, it is divided into nine areas. The above-mentioned Keze area is an ordinary area, inhabited by a large number of ordinary people. Among ordinary people, these people also belong to the lowest level. It can be understood as a slum.

The laws of the empire, to a certain extent, cannot affect the operation of this area, and it is a black area.

Su Fu guessed that it was due to the influence of some kind of special power that this place was like this.

The other party can't manage the Keze District, so this place may also become a gathering place for those illegal Extraordinary, just like their players have also chosen this area now.

Could this be a simple coincidence?
It should not be.

There are also three areas, which are the normal work areas, where ordinary people work professionally in exchange for rewards to maintain order in their lives, and spend a simple life alone in the ordinary.

There are also agricultural areas to the east, pasture areas to the west, and a technology area to the north. Acassius is not completely uninhabited by people, but changes take time, and technological research and development is not a temporary matter.

After all, they have only come from the final battle for 200 years, and it is just an extravagant hope to expect the level of technology research and development. In fact, most of the current technologies have not appeared in the civilian field, and more of them belong to the nobles who are responsible for research and development of technology. alliance.

The other two areas, one is the core area, which belongs to the private land of the nobles. In the northwest direction, in that beautiful area, the famous nobles, at least the barons, all have their own manors.

The quasi-rank is just a title handed down by the viscount himself. In fact, there are no awakening-level Extraordinary. These quasi-ranks, in Zerata City, are at the level of some patrol captains, which are similar to those in the war relics.

Then there is the central area of ​​the city. The central area is very special. It belongs to the center of the city, but it is not used in any way. The area is about two kilometers in diameter. No one is allowed to enter it, and there are special people to guard it. .

There is no need to worry about what the nobles are doing inside, because the nobles will basically not go to the central area.

Hearing this information, it is obvious that there is some kind of secret in the central area, but it is not what Su Fu should know now, and he will not think too much about it. Instead, he focuses on the Heze area and the other technology areas.

They already have a lot of mechanical equipment in their hands. If they can combine the technology developed by the nobles, they may have new ideas.

Just wanting to contact and trade with nobles is probably not an easy task, after all, they are the embodiment of arrogance.

Of course, arrogance is just an attitude, and it can actually be avoided, just like Su Fu, he eliminated the influence of arrogance.

From Su Fu's point of view, the higher one's own level, the more one can restrain the influence of arrogance. Earl Zerata is already at the legendary level, not ordinary, and should have the power to control his own spirit.

It’s not that easy to meet the count directly. Things still have to be done slowly, and we still have to see how Count Zerata will deal with those player areas after they appear.

Knowing about the terrain of the city and its surrounding areas, Su Fu didn't ask any further questions, it was unnecessary.

The information collected by some low-level players is limited. For some important information, you still have to look at the other big forces. Their exploration must be more professional and detailed. It is good to understand the information.

Just when Su Fu was about to take someone back, someone came to the door suddenly. Su Fu took a closer look and found that the man had the sign of the Arctic Army on his body, and he seemed to be a member of the Arctic Army.

"Is there anything you want from me?" Su Fu looked at the other party, without any politeness, and said directly.

"Well, we were able to meet Mr. Su here this time. It's really rare. There are indeed some things that I want to ask Mr. Su."

Since the other party can lead a team to explore the city of Zerata, he is not an ordinary general, at least he has his own status in the Arctic Army, so there is no problem in talking with Su Fu.

"Oh, just tell me if you have anything to say! I don't guarantee that I can answer you." Su Fu didn't mean to answer affirmatively, but just wanted to ask about the situation first.

"There are so many people here, Mr. Su might as well go over there and have a chat." The man pointed to a nearby house and said.

There were quite a few people coming in and out there, most of them were members of the Arctic Army. It seemed that this was their temporary stronghold.

"Alright!" Su Fu nodded in agreement, and then came to their stronghold with the commander.

In a relatively spacious reception room, after Su Fu sat down, the other party served him something to entertain him.

Then the other party began to explain the situation, "That's right, I invited Mr. Su over this time, mainly to find out about the mechanical ruins."

"Mechanical ruins? The difficulty of that ruins shouldn't be too high. Haven't you got anything useful after so long?" Su Fu was a little surprised. After all, he was still in a coma for three days after his exploration was over. It's been almost a week. However, the Arctic Army didn't have any clues yet, which really made him unable to understand whether they were too weak or he was too strong.

"Ahem... It's a bit difficult, mainly because there is no direction. You can only meet some crazy robots inside. They will attack us when they see us. There are endless battles and no rewards. The exploration above is not very interesting."

"Not interested? Then explore what to do with the strategy. The mechanical pet industry can let us do it. If you don't want this piece of cake, it's fine." Su Fu naturally knew that what the other party wanted his information for was also openly stated. come out.

"Mechanical pets... that's what it means, but not all of them. As for other information, it's confidential, so please forgive me for not being able to say."

can not say?Su Fu looked at the other party's thoughts that he had obtained through the Dream Stealer ability, a little funny, brother, you have been completely exposed.

Through the other party's thoughts, Su Fu finally understood why they were so keen on exploring mechanical ruins. It turned out that at the beginning, they found a very strong mecha from the mechanical ruins. This mecha must have They don't want to let go of the extraordinary level. Naturally, they want to conquer the ruins and obtain mecha repair methods, repair tools, etc.

Su Fu's ability to make mechanical pets made them feel that repairing the mechs was a game, so they wanted to learn more information and speed up their exploration.

'It shouldn't be, the location of the research institute is not considered hidden, did they not explore it? Su Fu was secretly stealing the other party's ideas, while thinking about whether he should tell them the information and let them repair the mecha.

In the previous battle with the Demon Spider Dias, if there was an armor, then their battle would be easier, and it didn't take so many coincidences to kill Dias.

With the mecha, it is a mass-produced five-level extraordinary. No matter what level is suppressed, it will tremble in front of the huge number.

"I can tell what I have gained, but what can you give?" Su Fu said. He did have the idea of ​​letting them repair the mecha. In that case, he might also get the mecha at that time.

Afterwards, Su Fu and the other party started a transaction discussion. After a long time, the two reached a consensus, and the other party paid something in exchange for Jinx's news from Su Fu.

"The deal is concluded, and it's time for me to go back. When the time comes, you have verified the information, just remember to send the things to Jianbao Pavilion."

"no problem!"

Saying goodbye to the other party, Su Fu brought his subordinates back to the temporary base here.

In the following time, he wandered alone in Zerata City, saw many special buildings, and also saw some successors of new powers.

It seems that Earl Zerata is not a person who wants to kill them all. He has allowed the existence of these Extraordinary people. They are not in the Koze District, nor did they hide their intentions.

After walking around to confirm the situation in Zerata City, Su Fu sent a message to ask Longyeon to arrange a ceremony to summon him back.

Now with the Gold Swallowing Beast, the arrangement of the ceremony no longer needs to be scheduled every day in each place, or urgently called. The Gold Swallowing Beast saves a lot of money. Although the Swallowing Gold Beast also consumes gold coins, it is less than the consumption of the ceremony. It seems that the gold-swallowing beast is still making money.
