Conquering alien worlds starts from the game

The high-level executives of Lars City are impatient to manage the territory, but taxes still have to be collected.

The mayors of more than a dozen towns within the jurisdiction of Lars City are estimated to be the most "unlucky" low-level consuls in the Rhine Kingdom - they have to manage local security, local people's livelihood, and also be good tax officials.

The old mayor of Baboba Town is such a "unlucky guy". His personal wealth is less than one-tenth of the mayor of Westham Town who was overthrown by the players at the beginning, but he is the former mayor of Westham Town Ten times the heart.

The undead of Tarantan entered, the upper echelons of Lars City fled en masse, and the city hall had been taken over by the black magician Yang—after realizing this fact, the old mayor did not hesitate to... surrender his knees.

The main reason is that even if he wants to resist, it’s useless. Baboba Town can guarantee tax payment every year. It’s not bad at all. The old mayor of the dozen or so militiamen under the supervision of the official will not be so crazy that he thinks that this little force can fight against the undead.

What's even worse is that in other places, consuls can also borrow private soldiers from noble families, but this place can't borrow it even if they want to - the geographical environment in the southern part of Taqia Territory is too bad, except for Lars In the generation around the city, there were few decent plains in other places.

The local nobles are not willing to squat in this kind of mountainous area for a long time. Even the nobles with fiefs here almost all squat in the city to live.

Anyway, Inadler and Adler were ruled by the undead regime, and it became worse than before. Every year, there is an endless stream of caravans passing through Takia to the south... If you rebel, you will rebel!

The old mayor, who looks old but has a bright heart, made a decision and then watched the group of Adler militiamen outside the town with cold eyes for a long time, making sure that these militiamen would even pay for vegetables and potatoes from the townspeople and villagers, and they were not unreasonable. The bandit army sent their servants to respectfully invite the Adler militia officer to the town hall, and presented the local household register with both hands to show their sincerity.

The team officer is also a sensible person, and did not accept the household registration list.

First, he declared that the army had no orders and could not get involved in civil affairs, so that the old mayor's heart could be settled, and then the team officer asked the old mayor to continue to fulfill the duties of the local consul, and wait for the city hall to send someone to talk about it... not ready to establish a new order The old order cannot be destroyed hastily. This is the first lesson the team officers learned after entering the undead regime system.

The poor management model of Lars City is definitely not used to it, but before taking Taqiya as the leader, the team officer believes that the above will not make too much action-the undead regime is in the people's livelihood He is also very knowledgeable about being careful and cautious.

The old mayor was not appeased by the team officer's words.

Worried that his surrender would not be accepted, and that he might be liquidated by the new regime in the future, the old mayor struggled over and over again, and simply decided to take out a bigger bargaining chip——

"My lord, I...I know the secret of the lord of Lars City."

Wiping cold sweat, the old mayor who was over [-] years old reported to the team officer with great courage: "Since your boss has taken over Lars City, if you want to come... you should also know about the night watch in Lars City. Something happened to someone."

The team officer, who was about to resign from the pedestrians and go back to work, was shocked.

"What do you know?!" The shocked team officer hurriedly sat back.

"I don't know much..." The old mayor swallowed and said tremblingly, "Although I don't know how those night watchmen were killed...but I think, I might know why those night watchmen were killed .”

Next, the old mayor uttered in cold sweat a secret he had buried in his heart——

Before fleeing, City Lord Lars would send out butlers to various places every year to recruit "manor servants" and "farm laborers".

Not many people were taken away from each town or village, and the recruitment sites were rotated every year, and people would not be continuously recruited in the same place... But over the years, those who were recruited away never came back.

The old mayor noticed this when he was young, but he didn't dare to inquire about it curiously, let alone delve into it.

The old mayor only has the title of lord, which is the "one-generation noble" only when he becomes the mayor. The retiring mayor automatically abdicates and cannot pass it on to his son. He dare not provoke those who he and his descendants are absolutely It's something you can't afford to provoke.

"Three years ago, no, it should be four years ago... When my cook went to the countryside to buy a kind of wild fruit that we specialize in here to make flavored jam, a night watchman asked him for directions." The old mayor looked scared. Tunnel, "Nearby... Later I heard that the night watchmen in the city were investigating an important case. After not appearing in the city very often, I vaguely knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly sent the cook to Otis. Tell him never to come back."

"This is not the first time this kind of thing has happened. About ten years ago, two night watchmen 'disappeared' in the city. I didn't dare to ask what happened afterwards, but after that, people seemed to have forgotten about it." Things are normal..."

"Please also understand, my lord, Takia is always so strange, and some inexplicable and unreasonable things often happen."

The team officer looked at the old mayor thoughtfully.

Agent Stanford and Captain Mace were able to find that the people in Lars City ignored the night watchman too much because the agent and captain were originally from outsiders.

The old mayor could see something was wrong, obviously, he didn't "dare" to inquire, "dare not" to investigate deeply, as he said.

The team officer guessed right, if he hadn't personally gone outside the isolation camp to listen to the propaganda, confirmed with his own eyes that the undead regime is indeed merciless against the cult, and the fact that the top executives of Lars City fled without a fight, the old mayor would definitely I will not tell this secret to the second person, but will only bring it into my own coffin.

Whether the old mayor "inaction" or not, the team officer will not comment, and this is not within his scope of responsibility.

He paid more attention to whether the information provided by the old mayor was accurate.

The clerks, operatives, and non-commissioned officers in the militia who "set off" with the ship this time are all in Mr. Yang's magic net matrix.

The team officer also knew about the fact that the affairs officer of the Night Watch branch in Lars City betrayed the Night Watch and joined the "Degenerate Whisperer" sect.

It is a pity that the traitor of the Gold Coin Church only revealed the clue that the "Whisperer" sect was entrenched in the Taqia Territory, and died out of control, without providing any more information.

Agents Stanford and Captain Mace searched the city for several days. Even with the help of the powerful undead of Tarantine, they only found a few low-level believers who were connected with the betrayer Sam Atwood.

In other words... Although Mr. Yang, Agent Stanford, and Captain Mace all knew that the upper echelons of Lars City escaped were not clean, but they couldn't find any convincing evidence and couldn't completely nail down those who fled from the city. Die, get an invasion that no one can fault... Ah, an excuse to liberate Lars City!

"Mr. Mayor, can you guarantee that everything you said is true?" the team officer asked cautiously.

The old mayor breathed a sigh of relief.

The other party cares about whether the voting certificate he submitted is reliable, which shows that the information he provides is valuable to the other party.

"My lord, I know there are a few places that may have something you and your boss need."

The militia officer strode out of the town hall and saw the undead Tarantan, who was enthusiastic and helpful, and immediately issued a mission invitation.

Miaobi Shenghua happily accepted the task, and greeted the large group on the way back to the city to turn back (it doesn't take so many people to carry the prisoners back to the city), and then happily started the legal looting journey.

The first clue given by the old mayor was a fruit forest farm [-] kilometers east of Baboba Town.

This distance is a little far for normal people, but for players... it only takes less than half an hour.

This half hour also includes the time to gather in Baboba town.

Arriving at this fruit forest farm covering three low hills at an extremely fast speed, the players didn't even have the slightest thought of saluting before fighting, and rushed up cheering directly...

In less than 10 minutes, more than a hundred workers and thugs moving up and down the mountain were controlled by the swarming players.

After another 5 minutes, all the buildings scattered in the fruit forest, placed on the front, or slightly camouflaged were looted by the players.

Another 10 minutes later, the players who searched all over the mountains and plains for "task clues" discovered the secret road behind the mountain spring, and found this fruit forest farm as the transfer point of the "living sacrifice".

Another 15 minutes later, a player found a stack of living sacrifice transaction deeds hidden in the mezzanine of the wall in one of the fruit forest farm buildings, as well as several letters that were not signed but stamped with the seal of the Takia nobleman.

An hour later, the captured fruit forest farm suspect and the carefully hidden transaction deed and letters were brought back to Baboba Town by the large group of players.

The militia officials received the captives and some evidence without changing their expressions, and issued the next task.

The players set off again happily...

Before dark, this group of players successively destroyed the suspicious locations provided by the four old mayors, and collected some evidence of the collusion between the local nobles in Lars City and the cult.

The militia officer was very satisfied with this super-efficient "undead speed", and released the last task: to ask the players to send all the captives and evidence they captured back to Lars City and hand them over to professionals.

"The tasks given by human NPCs are simply done, not as constipated as zombie NPCs."

"That's right, not to mention fat and beautiful rewards, it's still easy to lose treasure!"

On the way to escort the captives, a group of rewarding players happily praised the militia officer who made them turn around.

At one o'clock in the afternoon of the earth time, and 12 o'clock in the night of the foreign time, the players who were expecting to receive the "hidden mission final link reward" rushed back to Lars City, jumped into the municipal building through the window, and pried open the gate of the Department of Justice. Awakened Agent Stanford who had just fallen asleep, and smeared a lot of physical and witness evidence on his face.

In order to investigate clues and collect evidence, Detective Stanford has been working tirelessly for several days: "..."

The agent stiffly looked down at the thick evidence bag in his hand, then turned his head to look outside the corridor window, where there were hundreds of "witnesses" standing in the courtyard of the city hall. The expression on his face was indescribable. .
