Chapter 279 Triggered Tasks
"Which two choices?" Du You showed the curiosity he should have shown.
The city lord didn't give up, and said directly: "The first option is to return to the country and become a hereditary baron. In the future, your descendants will also be nobles. The system of nobles is every three generations. If you can't have enough merits, It will reduce the title level by one, but it is still very easy to mix meritorious deeds, White Rock City is the place where nobles mix meritorious deeds."
Well, as a city lord, is it really good for you to say that about your city?
"Of course, if you choose to return to the country, then there will be no territory. After all, the territory in the country that can be divided has basically been divided, and it is impossible to find a new territory. And even if there is, it will not be your turn."
"There is another advantage of returning to the country, that is, you can get in touch with more other nobles and gradually integrate into it. The reason why they can give you hereditary status is because they want to integrate you into it."
"Then what about the second option." Du You didn't want to intrigue with those nobles.
I am not a person from this world, I am a professional, and I go to fight with the nobles all day long, so what do I do in this world? The reason why I came here is to improve myself.
The corner of the city lord's mouth twitched, and then he said solemnly: "The second choice is very difficult, and that is to become the pioneering lord here in White Rock City. You will be qualified to establish a territory, but the title cannot be hereditary."
The city lord continued: "Baishi City has a special environment, so all the territories you conquer will be yours and do not need to be handed over to the empire. But this place is too desolate and dangerous, so the nobles who established the territory here , either gave up, or was destroyed. There are few that can still exist after so many years."
Du You's eyes lit up, this is the route he wants to take. As for danger, what are you afraid of?
It is precisely because there is danger that there is a chance to fight, and there is a chance to fight, so that you can quickly improve your strength. As a professional, the choice is completely different from that of the indigenous nobles who want to enjoy life in peace.
"I choose the second option and become the pioneering lord."
Hearing Du You's words, the city lord seemed very happy, but he still said: "You have to choose carefully, this choice is very dangerous, maybe you will have to fight the sand people to the end for the rest of your life, the danger is too great, it is impossible to enjoy life And once you choose a pioneering lord, no matter how high your status is, you can't be transferred back to the country. You can only return to the empire if you give up everything and become a civilian."
It turned out that those who couldn't hold on gave up.
Du You somewhat understood in his heart.
"Once you give up, you will not be eligible to become a noble in the future. This is the rule."
This, Du You really doesn't care. I can't stand it anymore, I just leave. If you believe that if you can get a chance to establish a territory, you will definitely get a second time, if you can't change the world.
Many things are simple, and Du You himself doesn't cherish it very much, at least he doesn't think it's true.
"I chose this one. It is my wish to become the pioneering lord, fight against the sand people, and contribute to the empire." Du You felt that at this moment, he became an actor, and he played really well.
The city lord smiled and nodded: "Very good, I really did not see you wrong, I agree with your request. If you really can't hold on in the future, you can return to Baishi City. Although you can't become a noble, you can become a The officers are fine."
What the city lord didn't say is that the former pioneering lords couldn't hold on, and they all returned to White Rock City. Now many officers in Baishi City, and even the ancestors of many military nobles, are such people.
Although they were losers, they were respected in Shiroishi Castle.
"Here, this is your lord token, don't lose it. Your new badge and noble documents will be prepared for you before today. You won't be able to live in White Rock City for a long time tomorrow."
I don't know what to think, the city lord suddenly said: "By the way, there is one more point. Now you have to choose the place where you want to build your territory. I will give you two choices. One is the north, these oases, we have a firm foothold. Almost all of the lords are here. There are also the mountains in the south. The environment here is not good, but because it is a mountainous area, there are relatively few sand people."
Du You nodded in thanks, and then took the token. The moment he got the token, Du You's body trembled involuntarily, then recovered and left the place with a salute.
"You can see it, I didn't persecute." The city lord said to the place where no one was around.
"Hmph, I don't know how to lift up, I deserve to die." A voice came from the wall. It turned out that there were so many nobles hiding in it. Every time a new baron is born in White Rock, they do.
At this time, Du You was excited, because the moment he received this token, the panel changed.
Triggerable quest: You have successfully become a baron of the Shenyan Empire and obtained the lord qualification. Please choose a territory of your own to trigger the task of establishing territory.
"Really successful! I didn't expect that the territory is really related to the lord of the outer world. I don't know if it is to become a bandit, or to occupy the mountain as the king, etc., can trigger similar tasks."
Du You didn't choose to trigger the quest, and now his strength is too poor.
Those sand people, don't look at yourself as if you are restraining them, but that is because there are a large number of soldiers and you can deal with them. If you face a group of sand people by yourself, and there are several second-order existences among these sand people, you will definitely die without a place to die. If you want to build a territory, you can't do it without strength.
Du You decided that he must figure out the situation of the territory, and wait until he has broken through to the second rank before establishing the territory.
Besides, when I was in the Awakener stage, there was no way to find any information about the territory from the magic net. These things seemed to be hidden from people at the Awakened level.
But in any case, with this qualification to trigger the task, it is equivalent to being one step ahead of others.
During this period of investigation, Du You found that, at least in Baishicheng, no one suspected of being a professional has ever visited. Even within the Divine Flame Empire, I have never heard of it.
In this way, at least the possibility of secrecy is greater, and I don't have to worry about the pressure from the earth. To develop the territory, as long as you can do yourself well, there is no problem.
