Lord Of The World: I Become The Lord Of The Desert From The Start



Opening a spatial passageway would be as easy as drinking water and eating rice with detailed coordinates.

The big problem that troubled them seemed as simple as a child counting his fingers.

However, they still needed the void sandworm to maintain them after one opened these spatial passageways. At most, one could open ten spatial rifts at the same time.

That was far compared to the plan to connect all the primary nodes in the Mortal Plane.

However, Richard had already provided the primer, and the gamers immediately had an idea.

Three thousand five hundred guilds. What a vast amount of resources.

On the second day, with the efforts of all the guilds, a 5-star unique blueprint, the space portal, appeared on Richard's desk.

In addition, there was a detailed plan attached.

The Ell Players Association built a fixed portal after the void sandworm opened the portal.

They connected all the primary nodes of the Mortal Plane.

However, one built these portals in the territory of the members of the Ell Players Association in the early days. 

That was an additional benefit.

The morale of the newly established Ell Players Association rose a lot. And many guilds began to increase their investment in Mountain Range City after Richard had fixed this problem.

All kinds of new facilities and buildings rose from the ground. The bustling crowd brought life back to the city. The Raging Blood Duke had massacred this way of life.

Ell Players Association and [Trading Market] were both valuable items.

Any of them could increase Richard's influence by tenfold or even a hundredfold.

It would also allow Twilight City grow rapidly.

However, the benefits before Richard had not blinded his vision. He issued a few decisions that made all the guilds feel excited about the official establishment of the Ell Players Association. 

Every guild that entered the guild would only need to hand over 100,000 units of rare resources to obtain a piece of land or a building as the guild's base.

At the same time, the Ell Players Association members had the clothes to protect the Ell Plane. They had to send ten legions when the Ell Plane was in danger.

Each guild would send a large troop of soldiers to Mountain Range City. And the guards would be in charge of the arrangements.

The guild would pay for the troop members' supplies. (f)ir(e).nᴇt

The last one was the key to the guilds–Richard would distribute 70% of the annual income of the [Trading Market] in Mountain Range City to all the association members.

The cohesiveness of the Ell Players Association would immediately increase as soon as one announced the strategy.

"The Ell Players Association is safe with these conditions!"

"Military power, personnel, and future benefits are all in the hands of the other party. If we want greater benefits, we will protect Ell."

Kelde, the president of the Dragon Fang Guild, looked at the heated discussion on the forum about the Ell Players Association and sighed.

The white-haired, pale-faced old player beside him said with a burning gaze.

"How can guild leader Qingqiu be simply the number one player?"

"He has tied all the members together, although this arrangement has paid a lot of benefits."

"From now on, whoever wants to attack Ell will attack the 3,500 members!"

"Each guild has only sent out a single brigade, yet Shanling City has 3.5 million soldiers!"

"The troop strength will soar to hundreds of millions if one triggered the wartime policy."

"More guilds will join in the future as the Mountain Range City grew bigger…"

Richard vaguely saw the rise of a giant from his current layout.

The move to sharing 70% of the profits was simply fatal!

Mountain Range City would be extremely stable even if the enemy would spy on them with thousands of guilds and millions or even tens of millions of guild members. 

Don't make a sound. That was okay. But one will amaze the world with a sound.

However, what surprised them even more was the other party's calmness under the temptation of such benefits.

That was a [Trading Market] that involved tens of billions of players!

How exaggerated were the benefits?

Think about the wealth and taxes the big cities with tens of millions of people on Planet Blue yearly generate. Now, the other party had given up 70% of this interest.

How many people could be so decisive and open-minded?!

The white-haired, pale-faced old player's tone sounded more respectful.

"Only President Qingqiu can establish a player association and a trading market.

"It would be difficult for other guilds to reach this level even if they wanted to replicate it.

"The future Ell Plane has unlimited potential. President, we've grasped an amazing opportunity this time."

Kelder took a deep breath and said with a complicated tone.

"Previously, the forum said that Guild Leader Qing Qiu was a loner. And he had no interest in establishing a player faction. Now, it seemed the other party was just waiting for an opportunity to gather everyone."

This move was earth-shattering.

Even the top player guilds were as weak as ants before the Ell Players Association. Thousands of guilds comprised this organization. 

Qingqiu's influence could spread to all aspects even though the control and binding power were not mandatory. 

What Richard wanted to do would become extremely simple.

Furthermore, Qingqiu had the authority to mobilize the Mountain Range City troops. That was a few million soldiers.

The people could ask the guilds for help if Qingqiu encountered trouble. Each guild could borrow a troop. As long as half of the guilds borrowed, they could instantly raise tens of millions.

The two of them looked at each other, and the more they thought about it, the more awed they felt for Richard.

The other party's move had pulled his influence to the extreme.

"We could complete the planned spatial teleportation in half a month. We will witness unprecedented prosperity after the official opening of the Mountain Range City to the public."

Fortunately, they were participants, witnesses, and even creators.

He was inexplicably excited.

Richard had thought carefully about how to deal with and interact with the players.

In the end, the conclusion was that there was no need to include the players in the rule of Twilight City, but they could leverage it.

A great man once said, make few enemies and many friends.

They could gradually raise eyebrows as the players grew, especially in the last dimensional war, after the player guilds defeated the native forces. 

No one could guarantee what would happen, although he could beat up a top guild like the Blazing Flame Guild.

The Ell Plane was his first move.

Next, there were more plans to come.

Richard had received accurate news that the players, as the favorites of the world's will, were in the battle between the old gods and the new gods in the new expansion pack of the Crimson Moon. That is if he remembered correctly.

The scales would tilt in that direction on whichever side the players stood on. 

Ell Players Association. Richard already had the power to influence the situation.

And he was the controller of this power.

Richard curled up his lips. His eyes revealed a light difficult for outsiders to understand.

"Windsor, what would you give me in exchange for this gift?"
