Chapter 71: Plenty of Bootlicking

The migration of an entire tribe was not a single day task.

William got Nox to lead 1000 men and horses to accompany them in moving. He personally led Fiu Roeser and some others back. With Fiu Roeser in his hands, the Tauren tribe had lost their leader. They did not dare to rebel easily.

And the most important fact was that they had just pledged their loyalty. To the people of this era, loyalty was typically more important than other things.

But he had to keep his guard up against their intentions. This was a habit that William had maintained from the very beginning.

Interestingly,

William’s trip caught the attention of the players.

Changli Jiuge observed from the grass along the streets. He checked all their attributes.

But the attributes were nothing to what followed.

He realized that the elite warriors following closely behind William were all elf NPCs. Among them, there were even head NPCs and a few master NPCs…

What was this?

An army of bosses?

His eyes then went to the Taurens, and he discovered that there was an epic level Tauren soldier!

“Tsk tsk. This city wall is as lofty as a cliff. This street…” Fiu Roeser stopped. He could not find a good phrase. He nodded and came up with another praise. “It is light and spacious. My feet don’t rub against the ground. I feel comfortable walking here. Lord, you know how to govern!”

Fiu Roeser was diligent all the way in his attempts to curry favor.

William glanced at his hooves. He laughed but did not say anything.

After all, this Tauren had comfortably and satisfyingly sucked up to him. Even an uncultured Tauren like him could curry favor. Of course, this pleased him!

Even though William had never admitted that he was a self-indulgent ruler who would give others benefits if they sucked up to him!

But he could not help but say, “Currying favor is a skill. You will be rewarded for this. I will ask someone to bring you to the blacksmith. You can have a suit of silver equipment and gold weapons created for you!”

“T-this is wonderful. Thank you for your kindness, my Lord!” Fiu Roeser bowed respectfully as he fawned on William.”

“Currying favor is a skill?” When Changli Jiuge heard this, his eyes became full of disdain. Though he could not help but lick his lips.

“Go and do it too!”

“Hm… hm?” Changli Jiuge nodded without thought. He then cautiously turned around. Angry Fatty was just beside him. He was also looking at the army who had just returned.

“You…” Changli Jiuge pointed at Fatty with a complex expression on his face but did not say anything unpleasant.

“Look above my head. Do you see a sign of a live stream? Relax!”

“Oh!” Changli Jiuge patted his chest. He could not help but roll his eyes. “You scared me to death.”

“But I have started recording!” Fatty blankly picked his eyebrows.

“Big Brother, I have faulted.”

“Good boy.” Fatty wanted to laugh. But he saw that Changli Jiuge did not have a kind expression on his face. He quickly explained. “You want to fawn on him, but so do I. But the important thing is that he is a Legendary Boss. Epic level bosses are able to fawn on him because of their own skills. Players like us, our level is too low. We would stand no chance”

“I know that too. But if we don’t try, it is not worth leaving this chance!” Changli Jiuge looked at the army that had just returned and were receiving loud cheers from the civilians. Suddenly,

“I have an idea, but it is…”

“What do you mean?”

“We charge forth and slap him. We are his mercenary soldiers. We will not die even if we rashly approach him. Even if our affinity drops, it does not matter. We will have the chance to gain it back in the future.” Changli Jiuge badly wanted to try.

After all, each NPC had different habits.

Some NPCs were tough, while others were very stubborn.

Some NPCs were masochists. They only had a favorable impression of someone if that person manages to hit them.

No one knew what interests the Legendary Boss had.

There were many fictitious games. Many players who focused on maintaining good relations with NPCs had mastered many skills. They had plenty of experience. This method of revealing themselves in an intense and dangerous way was not recommended, but the difference between them was too large. They would only have a chance if they tried.”

“Then let’s go together.” Fatso clenched his fist. He also decided to take the risk.

“Okay, but turn off the recording!”

“Okay.”

“One!”

“Two!”

“Three!”

The people who had been observing in secret suddenly stopped the advance of the army. Unkind expressions appeared on many soldiers and civilians alike. They had not expected anyone to be irrational and run into the returning army.

Drip drip drip drip drip…

The two of them heard the noise of the notification of their affinity dropping.

But the significant thing hadn’t happened,

No notification of affinity increase with city lord William had reached them.

But since Changli Jiuge dared to suggest this, his reputation as a master bootlicking had to count for something.

He looked at William, who was looking at them with deep interest. He pulled Fatty and knelt on the ground with him. His voice was full of gratitude, “Welcome back from your victory, my Lord. When the two of us saw it, we were wild with joy. We could not control ourselves.”

As Changli Jiuge spoke, his expressions changed to one of – as if he had done something wrong and should be punished.

Thus, he took out his weapon with great grief and aimed it at his own arm. With great regret, he said, “We rushed out because of our uncontrollable excitement. I, Changli Jiuge, regret this. I will cut off my arm to make up for this. I hope that the Lord will be magnanimous enough to forgive me.”

“How awkward…” Angry Fatty was dumbfounded. He regretted not recording this.

“Wait…”

“My Lord.”

“Are you my mercenary soldiers?” William leaned forward on his horse. He looked at these two people. These famous people were not unknown to him, and he could not help but laugh.

Changli Jiuge showed the badge on his chest. He happily said, “Yes, my Lord. That is the case. We wanted to join the army, but we did not have enough resources. We could only become mercenary troops in the Dawn Mercenary Team. But as long as we are under you, we will always be satisfied!”

William laughed. It was as if he had seen some outstanding juniors. “Oh well. Rushing out to the city lord is not a big deal, but you cannot avoid punishment. Follow me to the mountains tomorrow. If there is a chance for you to perform, don’t disappoint me.”

“Thank you, City Lord, thank you, Lord!” The two of them repeated their thanks. Then, they retreated to the sides and watched the army walk through the city.

A sigh filled with emotions appeared on their faces. This risk had been worth it.

The other civilians quickly forgot about this and again started cheering for the army.

Every time the City of Dawn’s Army returned from a victory, they would wave their flags and walk through the city. This was what William had planned.

He wanted to use the army to strengthen the feelings of the people and public security.

Their results over the past half showed the improvement. Many people had even treated William like their faith.

After all, a city lord could not distance himself from the development of the city.

William gave them food and drinks, as well as money and glory. How could they not be grateful to him?

But the thing was,

William’s natural endowments were rigged. The results were not always good, but the affinity of the civilians always increased.

“They are able to adjust their affinity? Interesting.” William smiled and returned home. He did not increase his affinity with the two of them.

Their actions had been slightly overboard. He did not want other players to follow in their footsteps and disrupt his future progress.

But this encounter with the two of them provided him with the chance to fulfill his desire for spreading the news of his strength. Then, a large number of players would come to the City of Dawn.

No matter whether it was Angry Fatty or Changli Jiuge, they were all famous in their previous lives.

A news anchor with high viewership, and a professional player with extraordinary skills who had won a world championship. They were good tools he could use to spread the news of his strength…
