Chapter 143: New Clothes
After eating, Li Xiang didn't go out for a walk. Instead, he turned on his computer, logged into the official myth forum, and started browsing.
As expected, all the trending hot articles on the forum were related to himself and the Gods Guild.
The few unrelated to himself and the Gods Guild were basically gossip about some expert player. As he kept scrolling down, Li Xiang saw an interesting article.
It was about the Guild system.
This was a post by an anonymous player.
Currently, since the second batch of players entered the game, 2 billion players worldwide have registered and entered the game. Undoubtedly, this is an extremely terrifying number. Currently, there are only 20 billion people globally.
Now, one-tenth of the population is in the game, the vast majority being young people, who are the main force of the game and also the main force in reality.
With so many young people immersed in the game World, no countries have made any statements. It must be said that this game definitely has a deep-rooted official background.
Of course, this piece of news is not the main topic of this article; it's just an introduction. The following is the focus.
Currently, the average level of mainstream players throughout the game has reached level 30. They dare to fight monsters they didn't dare to fight before, can take down BOSSes they couldn't defeat, and the chance of Guild tokens dropping has greatly increased.
Currently, over a hundred Guilds have been established, and new Guilds are being built every day.
Certainly, maintaining a Guild requires significant financial resources, materials, and manpower, but for the various forces and wealthy individuals flourishing in reality, it's not a major difficulty.
These hundred Guilds are distributed across different servers in myth. Currently, the Huaxia Region has the largest number of Guilds, firmly holding the top spot with an exact count of 34 in this article.
The increase in Guilds has also brought about a problem: some game Cities have multiple Guild forces due to good resources or player luck.
However, the resources and number of players in a game City are limited.
Not every Guild force has the strong appeal of the Gods Guild, capable of directly attracting players from other Cities.
This leads to resource competition once a game City has multiple Guild forces.
Currently, game Cities where multiple Guilds exist have seen Guild wars break out.
This is a small-scale event, but it's undeniable that as time passes and the game progresses, it will inevitably become more frequent.
Furthermore, in the article, Wu Shuang City was specifically used as an example. The Gods Guild is undoubtedly a hegemonic presence among all Guilds in the entire game, and also the only force in the game about to be promoted to a town-level Guild!
Wu Shuang City has a large number of players and many forces. Although currently there is only the Gods Guild, other Guilds will definitely appear later.
How these Guilds will coexist with the Gods Guild is a huge problem. Submitting to the Gods Guild allows them to get some resources from the Gods Guild's leftovers. If they resist, they will only die miserably.
Under these circumstances, although Wu Shuang City seemingly is about to be promoted to a City, and the amount of resources will greatly increase, some local forces in Wu Shuang City have instead begun migrating towards other game Cities where no major forces exist.
The idea of preferring to be a chicken's head rather than a phoenix's tail is constantly encroaching upon all other forces in Wu Shuang City besides the Gods Guild...
"This person... thinks quite deeply..."
Leaning back in his chair, Li Xiang's eyes flickered.
The Gods Guild was established in Wu Shuang City. Wu Shuang City benefited from this, attracting a large number of players and is being built towards becoming a City.
Undoubtedly, a City possesses more game resources. The few Guild buildings in the Guild Residence are the best proof.
This is just during construction. After completely transforming into a City, more resources will definitely be released.
Li Xiang himself, as the one who created all this for the Gods Guild, is unwilling to give up such great benefits and advantages.
Only by completely annexing all the resources of this City into himself can he thoroughly consolidate the hegemonic position of the Gods Guild!!!
"Someone has already realized that if the Guild develops like this, it will completely occupy Wu Shuang City..."
"Truly clever..."
After thinking for a moment, Li Xiang took out paper and pen and started writing and drawing.
Every word he wrote represented Li Xiang's plan and general direction for the Guild's future...
...
Putting down the paper and pen, Li Xiang looked at the filled paper with satisfaction, pulled open a drawer, and put it inside.
"Sleep!"
...
When Li Xiang woke up, feeling refreshed, he came into the living room and saw Wang Zhiyan walking in, carrying large and small bags.
Li Xiang glanced over and found that they were all men's clothes.
Li Xiang looked at her doubtfully, "This is..."
Wang Zhiyan quickly explained, "Li Xiang... From the time I met You until now, You seem to have always worn this same set of clothes. I haven't seen any other clothes in Your wardrobe either..."
"These... aren't brand-name clothes, but they should fit You. You... You want to try them on?"
As she spoke, Wang Zhiyan's expression was unnatural.
Just yesterday, Li Xiang raised her monthly salary to thirty thousand. She felt that if she didn't do a better job, she wouldn't be worthy of this salary, which led to this scene.
But...
Going to a men's clothing store alone to buy clothes for a man felt like a wife buying clothes for her husband. The clothing store staff were experienced and knew that nine times out of ten, when a woman buys clothes for a man alone, it's a wife buying for her husband. They would say things like, 'How tall is Your loved one, how much do they weigh, what style do they like...'
Thinking about the staff's misunderstanding, Wang Zhiyan's pretty face started to blush.
After a brief moment of surprise, Li Xiang took them with a smile, "Okay, I'll try them on. Thank You. I'll transfer the money to You later."
"Mm... Okay..."
Taking the clothes back to his room, Li Xiang changed into a few outfits and found that they indeed fit his figure well, and the effect when worn was very good.
This girl has good taste!
Opening the door, Li Xiang saw Wang Zhiyan standing at the entrance.
Seeing Li Xiang wearing a new outfit, Wang Zhiyan's eyes lit up.
He's quite handsome...
Li Xiang's previous style was really... too ordinary, it didn't show off his handsomeness at all!!!
After all, sometimes, handsomeness is a feeling...
Thinking that these were personally selected by her and the effect was actually so good, a sense of pride and satisfaction arose in Wang Zhiyan's heart.
"Zhiyan, thank You. I really like them!"
"Hehe~ You're welcome! Then, I'll take care of all Your clothes from now on."
After speaking, Wang Zhiyan realized that these words seemed a bit ambiguous, and quickly added, "This... this is also my... my job responsibility..."
Li Xiang naturally had no objection. He was completely unskilled at buying clothes. He smiled and agreed, "Okay, then I'll trouble You with it from now on."
