Chapter 1886: Chapter 1886: An Ant Swallowing an Elephant
When Li Jie mentioned the biggest gain from this war, everyone immediately focused their attention.
Li Jie lightly coughed and continued, “First, let’s talk about the monetary gains, mainly from two treasuries and a bank, with quite substantial gains from the noble district as well. Most of it is in gold bricks, with a total value of around 4.5 billion.”
Boom!
Even though they were mentally prepared, hearing this number still made their minds buzz with disbelief.
To think, as a player nowadays, having a hundred Gold Coins is considered wealthy, but tens of billions? It’s simply unimaginable.
“How is this possible? I’m afraid, apart from Silvermoon City, the combined wealth of other Dark Camp races might be like this,” Qin Feng Yi, busy with promotions and other matters, was shocked upon hearing the number.
“Isn’t this too exaggerated? Sister-in-law, did you make a mistake?” Tongtong said while swallowing her saliva.
For current players, getting a horse for a thousand Gold Coins is a big issue, tens of billions of Gold Coins are just unthinkable.
Li Yao said, “You guys look terrified, it sounds scary, but this is just Gold Coins, the other treasures haven’t even been estimated yet, right?”
Li Jie nodded too, “The treasures and materials in the treasury are too many; their value hasn’t been estimated yet, but based on my judgment, it’s likely more than three times the value of Gold Coins.”
Everyone was nearly fainting from shock; three times 4.5 billion is more than 100 billion, an incredibly surreal number.
“No, no, I need to log off for a moment; this is too exciting, I can’t handle it,” the Guardian Angel said exaggeratedly.
“It’s indeed a bit over the top; the various races in the Dark Camp don’t have this kind of wealth now, do they?” Everyone couldn’t believe it.
“Yeah, why would an Ogre have so much wealth?” they questioned.
Li Yao laughed and said, “It sounds exaggerated to you, but this is a main city, not comparable to a guild’s base. Also, this is the accumulated wealth of an entire race, including players. Consider that if an average player saves ten Gold Coins, the number of Gold Coins accumulated by Ogre players is over a billion, which is not exaggerated at all. Moreover, you have to understand that the Ogre’s original realm included more than three map zones of a mid-sized sub-dimension. With Ogres ruling the sub-dimension for so long, the accumulated wealth seems a bit underwhelming to me.”
“No way, is it really this exaggerated?” the Guardian Angel looked skeptical.
“Ah, you’re still thinking in terms of small-scale guild operations. Even though we’re earning a lot now, we need to rebuild the main city, plus other expenses, and we don’t know how much Gold Coins we’ll save in the short term. Great gains, great expenses. Plus, as a main city, coupled with the Dire Maul dungeon group, facing a huge number of players, without a foundation of over a billion Gold Coins, we can’t support Dire Maul’s military needs. Without these funds, nothing will operate,” Li Yao shook his head.
Li Jie nodded and said, “The president is right, Gold Coins seem plenty, but we face many issues. Especially those treasures in the treasury, they can’t be absorbed by the market in a short time, and we can’t sell them off. Those top-tier materials and treasures play a very important role in the comprehensive development of the main city. Many materials are invaluable, for example, if we wish to establish a super Array, even the camp won’t sell it to us. Also, the Khorgonite, this is a mutated mineral generated through void radiation in the sub-dimension, we can’t buy it from the camp, but there’s over a dozen tons in the treasury.”
Everyone swallowed. Khorgonite is a necessity for forging Gold Equipment, enhancing it to top-tier attributes, it’s truly invaluable and is rarely sold, usually obtained piece by piece, making it extremely valuable.
Li Jie briefly explained the approximate quantities of various items, making everyone continuously amazed.
Then Li Jie proposed the suggestion and plan to move the treasury to Dire Maul, considering that Starfire’s focus is on Dire Maul, with the sub-dimension Ogre’s main city being secondary.
Although it’s called Dire Maul, the city is dilapidated, yet even so, one can see how splendid this city once was.
In the ancient times, Aesslyn was naturally the first city of the ancient gods, possessing the Eternal Well, unparalleled.
And this city is one of the cities second only to Aesslyn, ranking in ancient times without a doubt.
If this city is restored today, it will definitely become one of the top cities in this world, especially with the addition of the sub-dimension Ogre’s main city. When Starfire completes its transformation, it will indeed be terrifying.
“The funds and treasures are roughly like this. Additionally, the various spoils and resources are really piling up, but with the influx of players, these things won’t be too big a problem and can be disposed of quickly. Worth mentioning is the large number of equipment we gained, most of which are excellent military uniforms. There are quite a few excellent military uniforms: three million suits of plate armor, five hundred thousand of chain armor, one million in leather armor, and two hundred fifty thousand in cloth armor. These are all seized from elite troops, the armory also has a large number of semi-finished products, totaling two million or so. There are also many Epic Grade Equipment armors, seized from the officers.” Li Jie said happily.
Li Yao looked at everyone’s happy expressions and said, “Don’t be too happy just yet, the Ogre’s armor and equipment need some modifications before they can be used. But the harvest is indeed gratifying, firstly the Gordok Ogres can directly upgrade their arms, and then the guild’s boarmen legion can also be fully armed.”
Everyone nodded, the gain this time is simply beyond what the guild could fully absorb, in fact even when a camp occupies a main city, it needs time to properly digest, let alone a guild.
The harvest is such that even individual player participants can get hundreds of elite equipment which is wonderful, and compared to the mass quantity, it’s not even on the same scale.
This truly is a breakthrough harvest, if Starfire can digest it all, they will leap ahead in development, and the other super guilds won’t be able to catch up.
“You just need to know the general idea of the harvest, and with our limited manpower, we can’t achieve completely accurate statistics. The most important thing for our guild now is to build the main city. But there’s one key point, since I’ve become the Great Lord here, I have complete autonomy, which means it’s easier to recruit troops, and established corresponding race and legion bases. This not only benefits the main city’s security but allows the guild to recruit the corresponding troop types as well.”
Li Yao’s words excited everyone again, their eyes lit up instantly…
