Chapter 70 The Guard Team's Strength Improvement

Seeing everyone's excitement, Zhang Pingfan certainly couldn't let them use their permissions carelessly, otherwise, Pingfan Town would truly fall into chaos.

"I'm granting you permissions, but there's another rule to limit you. Anyone who dares to arbitrarily use their authority to lock others in the confinement room will be judged by the system for misuse of authority, and will also be locked in for 6 hours! Their guard status will be revoked, and their cloaks confiscated!"

This statement silenced everyone present.

The possibility of colluding for personal gain seemed to be eliminated, as you only get one chance.

Zhang Pingfan wanted them to manage Pingfan Town, not to lord over it.

At this moment, one of the players raised a question.

"Village Chief, do we get a salary?"

Zhang Pingfan replied, "Yes, each successful capture will automatically earn you a salary of one silver coin from the system!"

"Awesome, 100 per capture, who wouldn't do such a good thing?"

"Do all our members get to do such a good thing, or is it only for specific members?"

Zhang Pingfan nodded and said, "When troublemakers appear in Pingfan Town, all guard members will receive a system notification, and everyone can go and capture them. Only those who succeed in capturing will receive the reward!"

Everyone present was eager to try.

One capture for one silver coin, no one wanted to miss out on such a good deal, and everyone could participate.

Zhang Pingfan wanted to harness this enthusiasm.

While one silver coin wasn't a lot, it wasn't insignificant either.

However, their immediate task was to level up to level 30 as much as possible.

Zhang Pingfan said, "Your only mission now is to raise your levels to level 30 as much as possible. Youyou is your role model. Pingfan Town is mine, and it's everyone's. If you want Pingfan Town to become even stronger, then grow faster!"

"Yes, Village Chief!"

Zhang Pingfan looked at the players in front of him, all brimming with excitement.

"Very good, you must complete the upcoming mission as soon as possible!"

Ding! System notification: The Village Chief has issued a leveling mission to you. Starting from now, within the next 15 days, raise your level to 30 to obtain ten free attribute points and the exclusive level 30 Guardian Guard armor set! Failure to do so will result in no rewards!

Fifteen days was indeed very tight.

After level 20, the difficulty of leveling up increased significantly, with each subsequent level requiring more experience.

Reaching level 30 within half a month would require everyone to put in their utmost effort, otherwise, this mission would be impossible to complete.

The rewards offered by Zhang Pingfan were also incredibly enticing: 10 free attribute points and the exclusive level 30 Guardian Guard armor set, which was enough to drive any player to madness.

The moment the players received the mission, they rushed out of the city without even having time to say goodbye to Zhang Pingfan.

They didn't want to waste a single second of the remaining time.

Zhang Pingfan shouted from behind, "You are a team. Grouping up to level up will be more efficient. Go for it, young heroes!"

Watching the group of players disappear from his sight, Zhang Pingfan felt an indescribable sense of accomplishment.

Dou Youyou, standing beside Zhang Pingfan, was also full of confidence.

"Master, don't worry, I will level up to 30 as quickly as possible!"

"Slap!"

Zhang Pingfan tapped Dou Youyou on the head.

"Then why are you still standing here foolishly? Hurry up and go!"

Dou Youyou said in pain, "Hmph, can't you hit a little lighter? I'm a girl, you know!"

Zhang Pingfan raised his hand again, frightening Dou Youyou into running away.

"If you don't run, I'll spank you!"

After finishing all this, Zhang Pingfan felt a sense of relief.

However, he felt that his actions hadn't quite achieved his intended purpose.

But for now, it was time to deal with the equipment he had.

He still had a sky-blue shield and two blue level 30 equipment pieces.

Blue equipment would likely become commonplace soon, so it wasn't very valuable.

But the sky-blue shield was different. He wondered how much it could sell for.

It was past 10 PM, and the major guilds should still be online, as guild members typically didn't log off until late.

So, Zhang Pingfan headed to Pingjiang City, where the most players were gathered.

As soon as Zhang Pingfan arrived in Pingjiang City, he noticed that he was being watched.

"Strange, why is my sixth sense suddenly so strong? I feel like those random NPCs are monitoring me!"

Zhang Pingfan shook his head. He must have been mistaken; they were just ordinary NPCs, and his perspective was different from others.

Zhang Pingfan's appearance immediately drew the attention of other players, but this time they didn't dare to surround him. Players were, to some extent, wary of Zhang Pingfan.

As the Village Chief and an NPC in the game, he also had a stall system.

It was a pity that he couldn't use the player trading system, otherwise, selling equipment would be much simpler.

He sat cross-legged on the ground, opened his stall system, and placed the three pieces of equipment on the ground.

The moment he displayed them, he startled some players nearby.

"Holy crap, a level 30 sky-blue shield! These stats are terrifying!"

"Impressive. The defense alone on this shield is frighteningly high. It also adds attack and health. Whoever gets it will probably be the first tank in the history of this game!"

"The Village Chief isn't holding back either, he's opening the bid at 100 gold coins! That's ruthless. I wonder which sucker will buy it!"

"You're underestimating the rich players! The highest level is currently 21, and high-level players are around sixteen or seventeen. But there are still only a few pieces of golden-attribute equipment on the market, most of which were sold by the Village Chief. The golden equipment we players can craft is very rare; most of it is green or blue. Who knows when we'll get a piece of sky-blue equipment!"

At the same time, upon receiving the news, the major guilds rushed to Zhang Pingfan's stall location in Pingjiang City.

It was during this time that Zhang Pingfan met the guild leaders of the three major guilds.

He had heard about how impressive the leaders of the three major guilds were, but as a nobody before, he had no way to interact with them. Now, however, things were different; he was someone they sought to curry favor with.

Zhang Pingfan's stall was surrounded, with three layers of onlookers, all wanting to witness the appearance of the sky-blue equipment.

Its exquisite appearance, emitting a sky-blue glow, clearly indicated it was a valuable item.

The leaders of the three major guilds also pushed through the crowd and approached.

The moment they saw the shield, no one could take their eyes off it.

However, after Sky启皇朝 spent twenty-five million to acquire the hidden profession, the guild's funds were tight, causing Sky启皇's expression to turn grim.

At this moment, a mocking voice rang out.

"Haha, Sky启皇, your head must be spinning! Such a great item, and you don't have the money to buy it!"
