The Great Thief - Chapter 1419

Chapter 1419






Nearly all the houses along the beaches were wooden .

Lu Li also owned property here . Although he couldn't quite understand the spirit of exploration that came with these scenic views, he could at least appreciate the beauty contained within them .

"We want to build a city that people would want to travel to," Ruling Sword's Jia Ren suggested . "So, we'll have to add some special features . I had a look at some real tourist cities and have prepared a fresh analysis report . You can look at it when you're free, Boss . " He had been put in charge of construction and pointed to the street . A document was handed over after he finished speaking . There were quite a few text descriptions, most of which were for the blueprints .

"Oh, I don't think I really get it," Lu Li commented . He could read it, but it was clear that Lu Li couldn't understand all of it . Jian Ren had heard a rumour that Lu Li was born into poor circumstances and had risen from the bottom . He smiled apologetically and explained, "I simply intend to turn this street into a street called Leafy Street . The advantage of being in a game is that you don't have to worry about how the trees grow – you can just artificially adjust their life cycle . I want to exclusively plant a cherry blossom festival on this street . "

Even if Lu Li was an idiot, he could at least understand the Chief Engineer's explanation .

However, he was more concerned about something else .

"If you do this, you will have to propose it to the System . Will it be costly?"

"Yes, the bigger the plan, the more expensive it will be," Jia Ren said . "However, my brother has an idea . We can get some of our guild friends or property investors to invest in the project . The clause in the contract allowing us to plant a few trees in front of their houses is no big deal to them . This clause that they need to agree on when purchasing the house will support our plans for the Stronghold . "





"It would be better if you discussed this sort of thing with Wandering," Lu Li decided .

Since it didn't cost money, he didn't have to worry about it . He wasn't someone who could appreciate the aesthetic, but he looked forward to seeing the new city that Jia Ren had planned .

"I have also mentioned religious architecture in my report . You don't have any resistance towards religious beliefs, do you?" Jia Ren asked .

"I don't care, as long as they don't interfere with my life," Lu Li mumbled . He used to live near an old lady that didn't want anyone to eat pork . Lu Li had once acquired some meat for his sister after some great difficulty, only for her to flip the plate of food onto the ground .

"Noted," Jia Ren said, then paused and continued, "There are not a lot of construction funds left . The materials used for the city walls were a little over the budget . They were all made of fine stones, and Mercenary Groups have used this as a business opportunity . "


"Talk to Three Bro," Lu Li said as he looked at his communicator . "Someone is looking for me . Let me deal with this . "

The name of the person looking for him was rather unique – Dawn Customer Service 316 .





If Lu Li remembered correctly, players in Dawn couldn't registered with the words 'Dawn' in their name, nor could they register with numbers .

Only an official account could be opened with those words and numbers . These would usually be controlled by the AI if they were testing some signing-in functions .

"Esteemed Lu Li, Dawn Customer Service 315 wants to talk to you . Please confirm," a mechanical voice rang out from the communicator .

"I confirm . "

"Hello, I am Customer Service 315," a human voice spoke . It seemed like they had taken over this account .

"What are you looking for?" Lu Li asked .

"Do you have a place we can meet?" the other person responded, avoiding the question .

"Come to our Grey Valley Stronghold— the new taverns are very good," Lu Li said . Official Customer Service generally wouldn't contact the players and it wasn't easy to get in touch with them . Lu Li was quite curious why they took an interest in him and personally called him .





Lu Li waited in the tavern for a while, until the so-called Customer Service 316 arrived . His level wasn't very high, and he didn't seem to be wearing any equipment . He was just wearing work clothes which seemed out of place in such a stylish place . There were all sorts of fashion in the game, but no one was dressed like that . The gaming industry had developed to the point that Game Masters had to be clear about their identity in the game . If it was suspected that they had Game Masters hiding as normal players, the Game Company would face a lot of pressure .

However, there were all sorts of dodgy Game Companies that tried different strategies . Dawn had once been part of a scandal . Several Game Designers had used an account to play the game and had triggered a World Announcement on accident which revealed their names to everyone . The officials then had to deal with the accident and several Game Designers publicly apologized for this matter . Dawn's Game Company's stocks plunged, and it took a lot of effort just to settle the scandal .

"Want something to drink?" Lu Li asked .

"Thank you . A dark beer is fine," Dawn Customer Service 316 said, then looked around and praised him, "This place is very nice, even better than the System's Taverns . I like the vibes . "

"Everyone else had taken care of it . It has nothing to do with me . Why have you come looking for me?" Lu Li asked .

"I need your help with something," Customer Service responded .

"Hey, don't make fun of me . You are part of Dawn's game company; how could I possibly help you?" Lu Li shook his head .

"Mr . Lu is now the owner of Dawn's first Stronghold . Ruling Sword is the only club that holds two Strongholds, which is obviously a big deal in the gaming circles," Customer Service said . He was taking a while to get to the point .

"And so?" Lu Li patiently prompted .

Generally, the players didn't like to be contacted by the Game Company as it was usually bad news . As a professional player, Lu Li was known due to the competitions he participated in . He didn't want the game company to interfere or do anything that would take away his sense of security . If the world was constantly being manipulated, how could anyone feel any sense of security?

"Thank you," Customer Service continued as the beer arrived . "Well, let me be straightforward . Has Mr . Lu ever been on the forums?"

"Occasionally," Lu Li nodded .

"Do you know what often reaches the top of the forums?" Customer Service asked with a smile .

"The number one post…" Lu Li thought about it for a while to work out what he was talking about . If his guess was correct, the post probably had something to do with him .

Due to the gaming industry flourishing, many new gaming communities emerged . One of the most popular communities was Dawn's official forums that had emerged in the last six months . This was inevitable as the forums were officially supported, and any news was announced there first .

As for the post that topped the rankings, it was probably about the Marriage System . Unlike the 'level effect reduction rule' which was strictly confidential, the Marriage System that would be launched at the same was already at the forefront . Almost all players knew that the players would soon be allowed to get married . Therefore, there were often related posts on the forum filled with gossip about their favourite players pairing up .
