Chapter 89 Your player is simply a genius!
If these big-nosed moles were left alone, the load-bearing walls of the third level of the maze would be eaten up and torn down by them sooner or later.
Although the maze under Thunder City is large, it cannot withstand such trouble, so it still needs to be managed.
Following Luo Yan's order, Zhuangzhuang was quickly promoted to chief, and the original Tieya tribe was upgraded from a garbage dump to "Iron Ya City".
Since it is a city, it should look a bit like a city.
Luo Yan first made three rules with the moles here.
Firstly, he didn’t expect these guys to put the parts that had been removed from the maze before back in place, but they were not allowed to continue digging around in his maze in the future.
Otherwise, he wouldn't mind de-urbanizing Tieya City.
Although Zhuangzhuang and the other kids didn't know what de-urbanization was, seeing the devil's ferocious look, how could they dare to say no? They all nodded and swore to agree.
Second, it is forbidden to urinate or defecate anywhere in his Iron Teeth City.
The huts and the manure that filled them had to be cleared out, and areas for growing mushrooms and aphids had to be separated from residential areas.
Although this group does not seem to be afraid of the plague, there is more to this world than just the plague.
Some special behaviors... especially collective behaviors, have the probability of triggering rituals unconsciously, such as pleasing the God of Plague, thereby attracting even more terrifying things.
Luo Yan didn't want to see another creature like "Gachi" suddenly pop up in his territory.
However, contrary to Luo Yan's expectations, these moles showed no resistance when they heard his first request, but showed embarrassed expressions when they heard the second request.
Unable to withstand the pressure behind him, Zhuangzhuang spoke tremblingly on behalf of the tribe members.
"But, but sir... it's easy to separate the breeding area from the living area, but where should we dump the feces after we clean them out?"
They don't have the ability to get out of the maze.
Luo Yan looked at him with disdain.
"It's easy. Just find a place to gather them. There's also a cemetery. Aren't you afraid that your dead compatriots will stand up again?"
It's not just humans who become undead. Almost all creatures with a complete mind have the chance to stand up again after decaying.
Several mole people looked at each other with obvious embarrassment on their faces, as if they had something to hide.
Looking at these guys who couldn't even take care of themselves, Luo Yan finally gave up trying to force them and said with a sigh.
"I'll ask the experts from the Gecko clan to come and help you."
Although they didn't know what the Gecko Clan was, when they heard that someone was coming to help them, all the Mole People showed happy expressions on their faces.
"Thank you, Demon Lord!"
Luo Yan ignored their flattery and continued with a stern face.
"My third request is that from now on you are not allowed to produce that kind of junk for me, the kind at the door... and those things that can do nothing but explode."
When the Mole People heard the Demon King's third request, they all looked as if they were about to die, and they looked at each other in panic.
This time, Zhuangzhuang couldn't sit still without anyone's instigation and spoke tremblingly.
"But my lord...we don't know how to fight. We can only protect ourselves with those little gadgets."
As soon as Zhuangzhuang finished speaking, Gabang and Kuangkuang, who were standing behind him and glaring at him covetously, also echoed him this time.
"The monsters in the maze are so scary!"
"My Lord! We need to use big guys to protect our home!"
Although their claws are strong and nimble, they are not sharp enough, and they cannot even defeat ratmen of the same weight on the battlefield.
You don't even have to fight at all.
Without the machines and robots, they had no choice but to surrender.
Besides, building huge machines is their lifelong pursuit since they are born small.
They did not worship the Machine God, nor did they know much about him, but they could not refrain from using the inscriptions they had stolen from the dwarves.
"So that thing protected you?" Luo Yan chuckled and looked at the moles who were arguing with him.
Hearing these words, the moles' faces instantly turned red and they lowered their heads in humiliation.
Luo Yan raised his chin slightly and continued.
"I mean you are not allowed to produce industrial waste anymore. I didn't say you are not allowed to produce truly useful things! I will send my experts to teach you what a real robot is."
After hearing the words of the Demon King, all the Mole People present opened their mouths in amazement, revealing their wrench-like front teeth.
Teach them? Real robots?
Necromancer???
"I must have heard it wrong... The Demon King wants to teach us what robots are," Kuang Kuang looked at Gabang beside him tremblingly, with an expression on his face as if he had seen a dead ghost.
Gabang also opened his mouth wide and took a long time to squeeze out a few words in a low voice.
"This is... such blasphemy."
Mechanical spells are taboo everywhere.
Isn't it in hell?
Luo Yan did not waste time explaining to them the difference between hell and the cemetery, because it was not important to them at all.
He has conquered their flesh.
Once they witness the advanced "ghost writing" technology of the cemetery, their souls will surely fall as well.
That's almost certain.
Although the order is a little different from what you imagined, the result is no different.
…
After explaining everything, Luo Yan temporarily left Bond next to Zhuang Zhuang as a physical deterrent to the recent conquering forces, and also as the latter's bodyguard.
This fellow, who was not strong in any other way except for his name, was too weak in martial virtue. Luo Yan saw the way other mole people looked at him, and without exception they all wanted to kill this fellow and take his place.
However, this is exactly the reason why Luo Yan chose this little guy.
For the newly conquered territories, there are only two ways to consolidate rule: either find the local "nucleus" to win them over, or create a nucleus for them yourself.
These mole people who can't even elect a chief naturally have no concept of condensation nuclei. If you leave them alone, they will be beaten to a pulp.
So we can only use the second method.
The more these mole people envy and hate the little guy's status, the more he can only cling to his own thighs.
With Bond's current strength, although it may not be enough to do other things, it is more than enough to suppress a few small moles.
After getting Luo Yan's permission, Zhuangzhuang immediately climbed onto Bond's shoulders.
The mole looked so arrogant and domineering, as if it had moved into the big guy's body again. The whole aura of the mole had changed.
After saying goodbye to Bond, Luo Yan took Octo and Sarah out of the "Iron Tooth City" and returned to the first level of the maze along the same path they came from.
Standing at the fork in the road on the first level of the maze, Luo Yan stopped, looked at Octo and gave instructions.
"...Go to the Gecko Clan and ask Zerik to send you a few slime breeding experts, then take them to Ironfang City to see if they can design a sewer or something for the moles there. If construction is needed, contact Arakdo, they are good at digging holes."
"Yes, sir."
Octo nodded calmly, carrying two scimitars, and went towards the sewer corridor alone.
With the departure of the lizard-man corpse, only one man and one cat were left at the fork in the road.
Perhaps because there were suddenly two people missing from the front row, the two cat ears on Sarah's head shook nervously.
It's good to be alert.
Even on the first floor of the maze, you could still fail if you're not careful.
Luo Yan tapped the ground with the magic wand in his hand and summoned two skeleton warriors and two zombie dogs to protect him in front and behind respectively.
Most monsters will not come closer on their own initiative after smelling the scent of the undead.
"Let's go too."
"Um……"
Her erect ears folded down, and Sarah, who was very energetic a second ago, became listless again for some reason.
Probably because he's tired.
Luo Yan is a demon king who cares about his subordinates.
Looking at the listless figure, he spoke in a voice that only Youyou could hear.
"Youyou, I want to eat grilled fish tonight."
Youyou: "No problem, Lord Demon! I'll let the players go fishing for you!"
It’s good to have a sensible secretary.
Luo Yan laughed and spoke as usual.
"Well, I leave it to you."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
…
More than half a day has passed since the A06 version was launched.
Luo Yan estimated that with the level of noise his players were making, ten hours would be enough for them to mess around. However, he didn't expect that when he stepped into the Demon King's territory, he was still shocked by the ideas of this group of little players.
In the corner of the Suzhi Square, there were two square curtains, about one meter wide, just enough for a lizard man to stand inside.
A little devil was floating nearby, holding a wooden sign in its hand, collecting money and shouting at the players returning from the maze.
"Paid toilet! 50 Hell Coins for the little devils! 200 Hell Coins for the lizardmen! If it exceeds five minutes, 20 Hell Coins will be charged per minute!"
Can't afford to play: "Fuck! You're robbing me!"
Pig-headed Knight: "I'm so angry! Why should a lizardman give you 200 ghost coins? You are being racist!!"
The little devil Ayanami rolled his eyes.
"Then go back to the maze and use the restroom!"
The Pig-Headed Knight didn't tolerate this guy and turned around and walked into the maze... although he had no intention of hiding there at all.
The little devil with the ID [Can't Afford to Play] didn't want to poop at first, but he couldn't hold it back when he smelled the smell, and finally he gritted his teeth, took out the money, and got behind the curtain.
In less than half a minute, the little head popped out from behind the curtain again.
"Not enough time to return the money?"
The little devil Ayanami chuckled.
"You can retreat if you put it back!"
Can't afford to play: "%¥#@!"
The unpleasant smell filled the entire Quality Square. Although most players couldn't smell it, it stunk the Demon King who had just returned from the maze.
The same was true for Sarah, who was sensitive to smells. Her wide-open eyes were filled with shock, and she even began to wonder if she had returned to the wrong home.
In the cave not far away, looking at the pay toilet that was doing a booming business, Shark, who had just returned from outside, said in amazement.
"Damn... Brother Jing! That guy... bought our fitting room and used it as a toilet!?"
Not long ago, they finished their last deal and were about to close the stall when a player came up to them and proposed to buy their mobile fitting room.
The three of them discussed it and decided that this thing was not difficult to make and would take up space in the warehouse. The market was saturated these days and it would be better to do quests in the maze and level up instead of setting up a stall. So they sold it to the strange player at twice the price.
However, they never expected that the guy was not a fellow clothes seller, but had installed a bucket in their fitting room and started a paid toilet?! Lizardmen poop fast, and the frequency of the little devil is high. Although they don't make much money at a time, it is a considerable amount when accumulated.
Jingluonanbei frowned, counted with her fingers, and suddenly found that the profit was even more considerable than she had imagined!
"I was careless... I didn't expect there was such a way to make money!"
Xiao Wan looked at her in surprise when the shark dropped the food.
"???"
"Are you serious?!"
Jingluonanbei's cheeks flushed slightly, and he coughed lightly and said.
"This is more reliable than crosstalk, right?"
As the three people finished speaking, a row of dark green pop-up windows suddenly appeared before their eyes.
[Announcement for the entire server: New server rules have been added, prohibiting defecation in the "illegal areas" of the Demon King's territory, and prohibiting the private operation of toilets...]
The moment she saw the server-wide announcement, the little devil Ayanami, who was counting money with her mouth wide open, was suddenly shocked and couldn't help but swear.
"Fuck! The Demon King even cares about this?!"
At least let him earn back his money!!! I was shocked that he couldn't afford to play because he stayed in the toilet and didn't come out. I just hated why the server-wide announcement didn't come two minutes earlier.
"MMP! Give me your money back!"
The little devil Ayanami cursed.
"Back off! No way! Don't even think about it!"
Just as the two were arguing, a scream like a pig being slaughtered suddenly came from the toilet next to them.
I saw a lizard man jumping out from the curtain, covering his butt, and running towards the maze without wearing pants.
"Help! Slime!! It's fucking getting in!"
Can’t afford to play: “???”
The little devil Ayanami was horrified.
"What the hell! What did you do to my employees?!"
There was another commotion in Suzhi Square.
There were those who just wanted to watch the fun, and those who were trying to help but were actually causing more trouble. Only the Demon King covered his forehead with his hands, unable to bear to look at the scene.
“Hahahaha! How embarrassing!”
Arakdo laughed heartily, and suddenly noticed the Demon King standing at the entrance of the maze. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he twisted his big butt and moved closer, saying with a flattering smile.
"Master Demon, you are back!"
Luo Yan said, covering his forehead.
"Arakdo, get your engineering team here immediately and build a public toilet near the entrance of the maze... according to the plan I told you before."
This matter can't be delayed any longer.
Arakdo immediately raised his front legs and saluted.
“Yes, sir!”
After giving the order, Luo Yan immediately walked towards the other end of the cave. He really didn't want to stay here for another second.
However, just as he passed by Oak's magic workshop, he heard an anxious voice and hurried footsteps coming towards him.
“Demon, Demon King—Huh?! You’re here!”
Seeing Ou Ke's anxious face, Luo Yan's heart skipped a beat, but he still stopped and chose to face it bravely.
"Tell me, what trouble has my player caused again?"
"Mess? Your players?"
Oak was stunned when he heard this, not understanding why the Demon King said that, but soon his wrinkled face regained its excited expression.
He was so excited that he danced and jumped up and down while talking.
"How could it be! Lord Demon, Oak must give you a compliment! Your minions, your players——"
“They are geniuses!!!”
