Chapter 531: A Surprising Turn at the Banquet

.""My Lord Bishop, it's alright. You are imbued with Holy Energy, you are one of us. You are powerful, and we all look up to you!" said the man in black."Alright, this is [Sindagross]'s chest cavity....It's said that Lu Cheng could only offer a military camp and a legion. The vice-chairman was obviously not as enthusiastic anymore, but it was better than nothing. Fortunately, Lu Cheng didn't make unreasonable demands. [/p]

After leaving the Competition Association, Lu Cheng conveniently participated in the council vote. Of course, Rick was not eligible to attend this time, and the guy stayed at the association to discuss advertising details with the vice president.

This time is a true battle for national fortune. If we succeed in reshaping the "Trojan War," expanding our capacity and boosting its level, our nation will prosper once again. But if we fail, we are doomed to ruin.

The council and all the arenas have poured their resources into this.

Everyone should fully support this nationwide competition, but the specific rules are hotly debated, primarily concerning the distribution of benefits.

This time, Dong Yue plays the Greek army, which will consist of over 30 battlefields and over 100 forces, including transcendent card masters, making up the game. A large number of card masters will participate in the competition.

Then how are resource cards and energy cards divided, and how are they allocated

If it's not arranged well, I'm afraid that on the field, our own people might end up fighting first.

Finally, a proposal was passed.

Pay according to one's work.

First, the parliament and various leaders will contribute money, along with investments, to create a massive funding pool.

This fund pool contains mixed resources, and you can exchange gold race points for rewards.

This time, there are many players. Players can form teams freely or play solo. Players can perform any actions to defeat opponents, capture domain cards, break through secret realms, and hand in resources to earn points.

And what about the fighting ring

Besides basic work, the Arena doesn't participate in competitions but will be responsible for the appearance of elite squads and bosses.

Players can spend points to post a battlefield plea, summoning their own boss to join the fight.

If the backstage of your own side can accept the battle arena, then the points will belong to the battle arena.

And when a player on that team calls for a battleground, the special corps or boss will be immediately dispatched to support the battlefield!

The arena gains resources through accepting orders. The more orders accepted and the higher the star rating, the more points the backstage force earns, allowing them to obtain more resources.

All integration pricing will be determined by the arena itself, with free competition. The gains or losses from card consumption or energy consumption during a match are borne by the individual participant.

This price must be reasonable.

The price is too high, the value for money is not good, so there are no players who choose it.

... and it's very cheap, the price-performance ratio is super high, and the resources you get by exchanging points from a single play aren't necessarily profitable.

This is both a protective mechanism on the morally ambiguous battlefield and a mechanism for distributing interests.

Players should consider how to use their points. Do they want to exchange them for resources or spend them on buying temporary helpers

Everyone agreed to this proposal because it's relatively fair and rewards those who are capable. There's nothing more to say.

And the establishment of the fund pool is nothing to worry about, because many investors this time have put all their assets in.

Once the final [Trojan War] is completed, the overall level of the Greek expansion pack will rise significantly, and your current investment could be multiplied several times!

But once we lose 【Troy】, the background will be taken away by malicious energy. At that time, I estimate everyone will have to leave this continent by boat.

As soon as the meeting adjourned, representatives from all sides gathered at a hotel for a dinner and began discussing the creation of a prize pool store.

Although Lu Cheng didn't want to attend such an occasion, he had no choice.

The Zhongdu Hotel is located in the city center. At the banquet, celebrities gathered, clinking glasses and enjoying each other's company.

Every clink of glasses might just be a trade of interests.

Li Cheng sat in the corner, writing and drawing on paper.

Rick, who smelled of a married woman and alcohol, pushed Lu Cheng aside: "Our Ghost Family and the Magic Academy will be participating in the competition. The old man said you're not ready yet, so don't cause any trouble this time."

"Understood." Lu Cheng replied, "Then will you compete"

"Of course, this honor is no small feat. If we win, we can directly enter the Master Tournament next stage! If I were the Hall of Fame Duel Master, how many girls would come after me" Rick mysteriously approached and whispered, "By the way, Miss Northwood's second daughter just asked me about the mysterious new lord of Dongyue. I think you should have no problem winning this."

"I'm really busy, swamped actually." Lu Cheng said, adding another line on the paper: "Don't worry, I'll do my best to save you from elimination. Anything else, you'll have to rely on the rules and earn points."

"No, what does 'doing one's best' even mean"

“The literal meaning is, I did my best,” Lu Cheng said with a smile.

"By the way, I'll go home for a bit. When I get back, I'll figure out a way to get you a shipload of goods. Before you have points, you'll have to pay out of pocket and do some promotion yourself. I estimate there won't be too much business."

"Holy crap, you're my brother then!"

In ancient arenas, it was customary to provide gladiators with scattered weapons and weapon racks as well as various props on the field.

Now it's the same.

This time, the arena provided players with weapons, adopting a points purchase system.

The arena can set up its own themed esports shop, selling cards within it. Players can use points to purchase and obtain them.

Points earned in the arena can be used to obtain more resources from the Golden Vault fund pool. While it's not guaranteed to make a profit, you won't lose money either.

Lu Cheng was thinking, what kind of store would he have

He was thinking, and suddenly

A major earthquake occurred.

"Ah!" A passing female waitress shrieked, spilling wine on Lu Cheng's clothes.

But Lu Cheng disregarded wiping, because the entire hotel suddenly twisted, and then the surrounding environment crumbled inch by inch!

"Summon [Qingyi Girl], synchronize and possess!"

"Summon [Cotton Lan Number Battle Flag], deck assembly summoning!"

Enemy attack

Who is so bold

This banquet saw most of the lords present, with flashes of gold intermingling as domain cards clashed.

Lu Cheng looked up. Outside the window, under the black curtain, figures in gray robes floated in the air, their long robes rustling in the wind.

In mid-air, a dragon protruded from the black curtain, a terrifying blizzard brewing in its mouth.

Then, the frigid air from

【Breath of Raidon】 brought the entire area down to freezing point.

The grey-cloaked man chained three cards together, and the black curtain in the air extended dozens of chains wrapped in black mist, pulling the dragon back!

"Bold!"

With a sound like thunder, the sky suddenly crackled with lightning.

The chain was instantaneously enveloped by electric snakes, then vanished into thin air.

It was the Thunder Lord who made the move.

The original Jin 9-Star Cardmaster, having ascended to the peak during the battle to overthrow the Imperial City, is now the leader of Zhongdu and the current chairman of the Council of Elders.

"Haha, it's time for the competition. We from the Holy Domain just wanted to see if we could put a team together. Since we're not welcome here, then everyone, continue drinking! We'll be taking our leave!" The leader of the gray-cloaked people laughed.

"Heh," Grand Chancellor Lei Ting chuckled. "You burned so much energy just to come and liven things up for us Quite the atmosphere from the Holy Domain, isn't it"

"It's okay, Mr. Chairman, take your time with your drink. I'll go first!" The man in gray tossed a card and then all the men in gray tore up the cards they were holding.

One by one, the celestial channels open across the heavens and earth.

The black curtain retreated, and the world was instantly restored to tranquility. Apart from the shattered hotel, it seemed as if nothing had ever happened.lm.
