Chapter 307 Popularity Exceeds 2,000 Points!

Looking at the discussion on the [Fenghuaxueyue] forum, Chen Ye raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said with a smile:

"It seems that the fame bonus brought by good things is still very good."

"The first players to arrive at the restaurant to try it out are generally not simple characters."

"If not, you wouldn't dare to go into my restaurant despite the pressure from Qinglong Hall."

"But with the leadership of this group of players and the increase in word-of-mouth..."

"Soon, the reputation of Chengxin Restaurant will rise, and the progress bar will continue to increase."

The current progress is only on the first day, and the number of players coming over is not very large.

It was midnight, and it was not a time for players to be frequently active.

It's already half past four...

During the day, it is estimated that there will be more players and customers coming to the store to enjoy it.

[Famousness +7! 】

[Famousness +10! 】

【……】

Within the [Territory] panel, the rate of increase in popularity still maintains a significant and rapid increase.

Chen Ye raised the corners of his mouth slightly and thought to himself:

"If we continue at this rate, it will probably take less than a day for my popularity to reach the second level. By then, I will be able to unlock new features and attract new special guests."

Currently, Chen Ye’s [territory] characteristics are only—

[Parasite], [Tentacle], [Soul Realm], [Heart of Conquest]...

I wonder what kind of skills will be unlocked once the popularity reaches 2,000 and new characteristics are obtained.

Take the heavy bronze doors on both sides of the casino and step out.

At this moment, [Wanderer Map] marked his location.

Chen Ye's thoughts moved slightly, and he opened the map. Based on the surrounding ink contours, he outlined the maze-like underground world and identified his current location.

"The location of the casino is quite far from the paradise, and is closer to the east of the City of Destiny. If you leave from this place, you will probably arrive at an industrial area."

Among them, the casino is also a dark place, judging from the map obtained through redemption, it is displayed in green.

It shows that this place is relatively safe...

On the map of the underground world, special areas marked as lightless lands are scattered throughout the dark maze like stars, independent of each other.

However, most of the dark places near casinos are marked in red.

Like mottled blood stains, scattered in the corners of the maze with an ink background.

Chen Ye frowned slightly, silently guessing in his mind the location of the City of Destiny above this underground world.

"In the industrial zone... there seem to be very few players there. Most of them are heavy industrial land. A few players are responsible for going to work and doing part-time jobs there. All they do is hard work."

"Stretching eastward from Longhua Avenue is the industrial land."

"I remember that when I first arrived in the City of Destiny, I didn't feel very good about that area, even though it showed signs of luck and a faint glow of blood..."

At that time, Chen Ye didn't have such a deep understanding of what he saw with the Eye of Destiny.

Now that I think about it...it seems that the entire area is a bit more dangerous than other places.

Chen Ye was a little glad that he had followed the gaze of the Eye of Luck and headed towards the alleys of Xining instead of going deep into the dangerous area.

At that time, Chen Ye didn't have a very good career. He was still starting from hell as a "Wanderer" and would explode if he looked at it one more time.

If you enter a dangerous area...

Not to mention surviving until now, whether he can survive a day or two is still a question.

Although it is not visible on the surface of the forum, judging from the activity of [Public Screen], it is getting less and less every day.

How many players died quietly behind this is an uncountable number.

Players who can be active on public screens and red mobile phones are already the lucky ones among millions of creatures.

"This area corresponds to the industrial area of ​​Destiny City..."

"There is relatively little information on industrial zones in the forum, there are only a few possibilities..."

"Either there are no players there at all..."

"Either it is too dangerous, and it involves deeper secrets. Even players who know the information will not choose to come out to discuss it, or it is subject to some kind of restrictions."

“But whatever the reason, industrial areas are certainly not as simple as they seem.”

"This underground world is located at the bottom of the industrial area. Most of the lightless lands nearby are red, and the maze-like roads are more winding. If it is the first time for ordinary players to arrive here, it is easy to get lost and it is difficult to find the direction to leave. ”

"There are no entrances or exits nearby..."

"It can be said that this is a deeper area in the underground world."

Realizing this, Chen Ye knew that this area was probably not as safe as he thought.

Regarding the red lightless land... Due to the current lack of information, it is of course impossible to directly explore it with your face, otherwise you will risk your life.

In essence, the game of Strange Era is still an intelligence war, and you need to understand the unknown before you can start the battle.

You don't even know the details of the enemy or the dangers in the area ahead, so you just rush over. It's no different than giving someone a death.

Chen Ye quickened his pace, planning to leave this place quickly and return to the entrance and exit.

Walking all the way deeper into the dark, empty underground cave.

With the speed of [Wanderer's Boots], even if the distance is far, as long as there is no danger nearby, you can still rush to the destination at a faster speed.

Chen Ye used the Eye of Luck to confirm that the route ahead was basically safe, and then he sped up and quickly returned to the underground market.

Noisy and noisy voices came from all around like a tide.

When he arrived at his shop...

Suddenly, a lizardman stood in front of him and said with a bad face:

"No passage here."

Chen Ye looked up and found that a blood-red information box floated above the head of the lizardman in front of him——

[Lizard Warrior]

"A second-level profession formed by the fusion of the monster-like [Lizard Tribe] and [Warrior]?"

Chen Ye took a glance and judged that the strength of the [Lizard Warrior] in front of him was the type that could be killed directly.

He was too lazy to pay attention and passed directly.

At this moment, a group of [Lizard Warriors] next to him suddenly surrounded him with bad faces.

Just as Chen Ye's face changed slightly, and he was about to turn on the demon form to deal with this group of things...

"Boss!"

A sound came from the crowd.

Chen Ye turned around and found that Bepsi had rushed over and was calling him.

He frowned slightly and asked, "Bepsi, what's wrong with this group of lizardmen?"

Bepsi responded indignantly:

"This group of lizardmen recently opened a charcoal barbecue shop in the nearby market. However, because our shop is doing so well, we almost took away all their business."

"They can't compete in business, so they use the method of blocking the road."

"Anyone who wants to pass through the lizard tribe must be charged an extra fee."

"Otherwise..."

"They will be killed by them."

Chen Ye frowned and was about to ask the manager of the underground market, wouldn't he come out to manage the market order?

However, he carefully recalled the rules of the market and found that there seemed to be no description of rules related to order.

This shows that the manager here has always allowed this chaotic market order.

Only the strong can gain a foothold in such a place.

"Lizards... monster type... are not a big threat to me."

Chen Ye glanced at the lizards lightly, not taking them seriously.

This kind of monster race is actually no different from the nest. Even if some third-turn and fourth-turn creatures are born, due to the lack of wisdom and evil means, it is difficult for them to use evil sacrificial methods in secret to affect themselves.

If it is a head-on battle, then Chen Ye will not be afraid of anything.

Even if it is a [Monster] above the third turn...

The spiritual field that he has chosen corresponds to the spiritual system.

Generally speaking, [Monsters] are just a little stronger in body, but in terms of mental power, there is almost no additional points.

Therefore, even if he encounters a monster of the third turn to the fourth turn, Chen Ye has a way to deal with it.

As for after the fourth turn...

Generally speaking, it is unlikely to be encountered.

The path of the [Monster] sequence, generally after reaching the fourth turn, if you want to advance to a higher level, you need to have a path to the 'authority of God'.

For example, the ‘Dragon God’ obtained the ‘Divine Authority’ of the [Sea God], so it can reach the power after the fifth turn.

However, due to the barbarity, violence, and lack of intelligence in this sequence, it is generally difficult to find the ‘Divine Authority’.

Moreover, obtaining the ‘Divine Authority’ is, in a sense, still the agent of God. No matter what actions and decisions are made, they will more or less represent the ‘will of God’.

At that level, any action must be particularly careful.

If this group of [Lizard Warriors] really have the ‘Divine Authority’ behind them, they will not provoke disputes because of this little business competition.

Generally, those who cause conflicts in this field are not too high in level.

Click!

The sharp knife light flashed.

The horns of this group of [Lizard Warriors] were instantly cut off by Chen Ye.

Before they could react...

At this moment, the tentacles of dozens of [Lizard Warriors] fell to the ground in this field.

They were stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and fled like a mob.

This scissor cut instantly woke up all the lizardmen.

They realized that Chen Ye's level was not something they could provoke, so of course they fled.

"You are worthy of being the boss!"

Bepsi looked at Chen Ye with admiration.

If he stayed in the store, Bepsi would be fine, but if he went out and fought with so many [Lizard Warriors] at the same time, even if he was a [Demon], it would be difficult for him to bear it.

However, the [Demon Executioner] unlocked by Chen Ye was infinitely close to the third level.

Even without using the characteristics of [Ferryman], directly turning on the execution mode can cause a crushing effect on this group of lizardmen.

If it was him, he could only make sure that he would be fine within the scope of the estate.

After all, with the rule domain set by Chen Ye, the group of lizardmen naturally did not dare to run into the branch estate of "Integrity Restaurant".

If you violate the rules and violate the characteristics of the [Parasitic Land Deed], you will be devoured mercilessly.

If you have not reached the level of the fourth turn or above, you dare not say that you can escape from the constraints of the rules.

Even if one can reach the fourth level, he will not rashly do such a dangerous thing.

In the world of the strange era, the higher the level, the more cautious he will be and will not do anything that crosses the line.

However, in order to hinder the normal operation of the "Integrity Restaurant", the [Lizard Warriors] can still fence it up and set up obstacles on the necessary roads to prevent other guests from passing normally.

In this way, the source of customer flow of the "Integrity Restaurant" is naturally intercepted.

As a result, the customer flow of the branch was not very large on this day.

Moreover, as an aboriginal, Bepsi had no means to notify Chen Ye, and the information was delayed, so it was naturally delayed until now to understand the situation.

If Chen Ye hadn't thought about going to the branch in the underground world to see the situation as soon as possible, it would probably be delayed for a longer time, thus affecting the income.

At this moment.

After Chen Ye dealt with those [Lizard Warriors], the customer flow next to it was immediately restored.

In fact, it was even more lively than at the beginning.

[Popularity +20! ]

Chen Ye was slightly startled when he saw the prompt popping up in the panel.

It seems that the speed of popularity increase is faster than before!

At this time, the popularity of the panel has reached 1,950 points.

It is only a little distance away from breaking through 2,000 points.

"Is it because of the underground market branch that the popularity has increased?"

Chen Ye looked around and found that the customers passing by could not help but look at him.

There was a look of admiration in his eyes.

Bepsi smiled and said, "Boss, because of the strength you have shown, our store has become more famous in the underground market."

"In the underground market, strength is the hard truth."

"Even if it is a relatively ordinary store, as long as it shows enough strength and reputation, it can get a good source of traffic."

"There are also some powerful characters who will follow the strong and become part of the traffic."

Chen Ye suddenly realized.

It seems that you can't be too low-key in the underground market. Showing your strength appropriately will attract more customers!

At present...

The traffic in the underground market is still very good.

On the contrary, the scale of the store has somewhat limited the upper limit of revenue.

However, if we can attract higher-level customers, it will also help with revenue.

These customers have higher professional levels and are generally in the [Monster] or [Glutton] sequence, so their appetite is not ordinary.

If a single customer eats more, it will naturally help with revenue.

"It seems that we have to find a way to expand the customer flow of the underground market in the future."

After a while...

Finally, a prompt popped up in front of Chen Ye——

[Your popularity has exceeded 2,000 points! ]
