The carriage drove further and further away, leaving Ma Shishi far behind.
Gu Mu finally had a moment to open the system panel in his mind.
In fact, the mission rewards had already been distributed the moment Shen Ling fell into the water.
At that time, Gu Mu was busy rescuing Shen Ling, and he and Shen Ling also played a trick on each other underwater.
Back on shore, another dramatic power struggle within the household unfolded.
He hasn't had time to check the mission rewards.
The reward for this mission is a city, which is quite special.
Gu Mu finally looked over.
"A secluded city"
It doesn't occupy a separate slot in the inventory.
Instead, it has a dedicated icon, just like the system store, located below the system store.
When Gu Mu tapped the icon in his mind, it was like a god's-eye view, overlooking the city from above.
The city's buildings are already constructed, all in a uniform style, with a luxurious ancient feel. Along the streets, even ordinary houses are at least three stories high, adorned with large red lanterns and colorful lights, creating a dazzling spectacle at night.
In addition to the uniformly styled houses, there is a landmark building in each of the five directions of the city: east, west, south, north, and center.
Above the building is a bubble, and in the center of the bubble is the word "Main City".
Gu Mu clicked on the bubble, and the scene in front of him kept zooming in, his perspective directly entering the main hall of the city.
He can control his perspective and move around the main city, but he can't leave the main city gates.
Gu Mu guessed that the five buildings with long bubbles were ones he could directly manipulate through the system panel, but apart from these five iconic buildings, the other buildings were just like any ordinary house in the capital, not within his scope of authority.
He controlled the city through these five buildings.
Sure enough, in the center of the main hall on the first floor of the main city, there was a long, vertical panel that confirmed his guess.
Above this panel, three large, bold black characters written in a flowing, calligraphic style read "Wanted List".
At the top of the panel, there are three gold bars displaying the following:
Task 1: Unknown (editable). Reward: Unknown (editable)
...
Task 3: Unknown (editable). Reward: Unknown (editable)
Besides Task 1, Task 2, and Task 3 being marked as editable, Tasks 4 through 20 are also listed below, all displaying:
"Task Four: Unknown. Reward: Unknown"
...
"Task Twenty: Unknown. Reward: Unknown"
It seems that, apart from the top three rows with a gold background, which belong to the city lord and can issue tasks, the other seventeen rows belong to the task slots that can be issued by others.
Gu Mu wasn't sure if he could issue tasks in the other seventeen lines, but at least he couldn't edit them directly in the system panel. Just like if he wanted to see the scenery of the buildings in this city other than the five major cities, he had to go to this city in person. He would have to try to find out if he could edit other task slots.
But the top three lines,
Gu Mu gave it a try.
Just like typing on a computer, you can directly type text on it.
As for the reward... at the very bottom of the bounty board, there is a huge box. Open the box, put the reward inside, and then close the box. If the item you put in matches the reward, the box will light up, and at the same time, the posted task will be officially displayed on the bounty board.
Gu Mu can put the reward for the task he wants to post into the system's inventory, and then move it from the inventory to the reward box on the bounty board.
If the bounty is successfully posted, the reward in the box will disappear. It will only be taken by the bounty hunter if the task expires and the task automatically disappears from the bounty list. Otherwise, it will be taken by the person who completed the task.
Otherwise, once a bounty is posted, the bounty hunter cannot remove the bounty himself; he can only wait until the deadline arrives or the bounty is completed.
Gu Mu left the main city and adopted a bird's-eye view from above.
Only then did he notice that the other four cities, although they also had small bubbles, were all grayed out and he couldn't click on them for the time being.
In other words, he, as the city lord, does not currently have the right to control the other four landmark buildings.
It's possible that the city is currently deserted and lacks activity, preventing the granting of access to the other four cities, or it could be due to other restrictions.
Gu Mu did not study them one by one.
After all, the permissions for the main city are enough for him to play around with.
Besides the bounty board in the center of the main hall.
As the city lord, he also had many other miscellaneous powers.
For example, a hidden city has only one entrance, and no one can enter without the city lord's approval.
For example, badges can be issued in the main city. Only when a badge reaches a certain level will it be recognized by the bounty board and a task can be posted on the bounty board.
...
Therefore, this city can provide shelter for those who are being hunted.
Located in a borderland where good and evil coexist, if used properly, it can accumulate Gu Mu's strength in another aspect. Some things that the imperial court cannot do can be done entirely through this city.
However, only when this secluded city accumulates a certain reputation in the martial arts world can it fully realize its value.
Inside the carriage, Gu Mu gave a slight smile.
It seems that his current goal is to build this city and win over heroes and powerful figures.
The first step is to make as many heroes and warriors in the martial arts world as possible aware of this city.
He named this city Hidden City.
He not only wanted to build the imperial court,
He even gets involved in matters of the martial arts world.
Although it is said that since ancient times, the imperial court and the martial arts world have been separate entities, and have not interfered with each other.
