MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter

Li Yao's mood was complicated. Owning a main city seemed very glorious, a huge profit.

But in reality, managing it was fraught with difficulties. He didn't have a race as his foundation, and his Worm Tribe didn't have that capability, which was a limitation of the race.

Thus, becoming a main city, players have their own functional areas, is a completely different concept from supporting a guild base.

By then, there would be a shortage of people everywhere. Citizens, personnel in various industries, etc., if the Gordok Ogres could be subdued, it would solve certain problems.

The most direct solution would be to solve the issue of guards and main city defense, and it could also tackle some other kinds of work.

Although Ogres are lower in terms of civilization, with most being gluttons and simple-minded, there are some smart ones among them, and as long as they are given orders and fed well, they can execute a lot of commands.

However, the limitations of the Ogres cannot support a main city, and Starfire and other guilds settling in can only solve the issues of one region.

By then, merging Dire Maul and the Ogre Main City, the area of this city will be unprecedented; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it will become the largest main city of the current time.

In this way, the shortage of population will become a very huge problem.

Dire Maul itself is an enormous and grand city. Although old, once it is cleaned and reorganized, it will regain its past glory. Here, the functional buildings that are restored will be of the highest grade.

Li Yao's plan is for Dire Maul, the magnificently glorious city of the Elves, to become the central zone. It will become the administrative core and the core area of the Starfire guild. It will not only provide various benefits to Starfire but also become Starfire's new garden-style residential area.

The sub-dimension Ogre Main City will be analyzed in detail and partitioned into different areas and functional zones. It will also become a gathering place for other guilds or foreign players.

By the time the Dire Maul instance is developed, there won't be any concerns about foot traffic.

Thus, the urgent problem is still the population, quickly supporting the main city.

By then, the Withered Sun Legion might be able to support with some manpower, the Shadow City Queen will surely support another batch, and Li Yao plans to have the Dark Camp support another batch. If it's still not enough, he will find other ways.

This Goblin will be very crucial. He was troubled by the city's bank and financial issues, and the idea flashed into his mind upon seeing this Goblin.

Do not underestimate the energy of a Trade Magnate; though he seems down and out now, his industry and manpower are not few.

Moreover, in order to become a Trade Viscount or even a Trade Prince, the Goblin will also understand how vast a market a main city will possess. There is a basis for cooperation between both parties.

After discussing with the Goblin for a while longer, both parties reached a preliminary cooperation intent.

"So it's settled, I can stay here for ten days at most, I've suffered heavy losses this time, you should understand that time is money, my friend," Goblin Galio said seriously.

"You'll see, it won't take that long. You should start drafting out how to control and operate the future vast market," Li Yao chuckled.

"Then it's settled. Damn it, before you retake this place, I need to leave this damned place," Goblin said and suddenly transformed into a tall Ogre.

Li Yao nodded, watching as the Goblin who turned into an Ogre swaggered away.

"Prairie Fire boss, you've calculated everything so thoroughly, already starting to recruit people, seems like you're full of confidence," Iron Tower said enviously.

Blood Rose also said, "This place is really too beautiful, with the buildings and environment perfectly integrated. Living in such a place would be very relaxing. God, you won't extensively remodel it after you occupy it, will you?"

Li Yao shook his head, "No, the city's layout and construction were both meticulously designed and calculated. Starfire is wealthy, but doesn't have the funds to rebuild a main city, we can only renovate it, especially here. A little restoration and pruning the plants, it'll be perfect."

"Cough, cough, such a big place, Starfire certainly can't occupy it all. Starfire has been promoting real estate, don't know if this time it'll be open to outsiders," Blood Rose asked the most concerning question.

"That's the plan," Li Yao paused, "But this place will become a core area, not open to outsiders. However, sub-dimension Ogre's side will consider opening some to guilds and players friendly with Starfire."

"Alright then, we also want a small building as a mercenary group's base, hope the god can give us a discount," Blood Rose said.

"Of course, at that time, just find Sister Li, I don't handle specific matters," Li Yao said as he took out a pile of Ogre Dolls, handing them out to everyone, "Everyone take one, we should be on our way."

"What's this thing?" Iron Tower asked, confused, "I'm not interested in dolls."

Li Yao sighed, "I'm not interested in dolls either, but this is a transformation toy. Everyone take one, it's a good thing. If it weren't for completing a quest, this thing could be sold for several hundred Gold Coins, and there would be rich people buying it, believe it or not."

Ogre Transformation Doll

Quality: Purple Epic

Transforms into a two-headed Ogre upon use. Appearance adjusts based on class and race. Transformation duration: twelve hours, cooldown: six hours. Transformation effect disappears upon death.

After transforming, Magicians, Shamans, and melee classes gain Fel Affinity, Elemental Affinity, and Wild Release effects respectively.

Strength increased by 400 post-transformation.

Equip Level: 60

Seeing this attribute, everyone couldn't wait to bind it to themselves. It's definitely a good thing.

In the world of the Old Gods, transformation items are very rare, and many require harsh conditions to achieve, and they are often bound and non-tradeable.

Tradeable ones often have a ten-minute transformation. Better ones, like the one-hour transformation via a delicious Wind Snake, sell for exorbitant platinum prices, with mutated fish fishing spots guarded by numerous people.

Moreover, for such long-duration transformation tools, selling for a few hundred Gold Coins, there are plenty of rich buyers.

And this transformation tool is not just for fun, it also increases attributes, and finally increases strength by 400, which is crucial and practical. Estimated, when fighting monsters in the future, they'll probably use Ogre form.

"Cough, cough, Prairie Fire boss, do you have more? Can I have one more? My wife loves transformation toys," Iron Tower shamelessly asked.

"I do, a few dozen more, I'll give you another one for a discounted price of 500 Gold Coins," Li Yao said, "Don't think it's expensive, it's just for you guys, I won't sell it to others. I'll give one to each member of the Starfire Core Group, and the rest will be placed in the merit warehouse for Starfire Guild members to exchange."

In reality, there are several sets, over a thousand transformation tools, but Li Yao didn't say anything, nor would he take them all out...
