The Immortal Player

Chapter 220: Planning Their Next Steps: Conquering the Tarala Kingdom, Part 1

"Before we discuss something else Can I get my earnings first? I am worried that something bad might happen with those gold coins" Pedro said as he rubbed the back of his head whilst forcing out a smile.

"Yes, of course!" Duke Albert simply said as he handed over the pushcart to Pedro. He can't help but take his seatopposite to Pedro, as Pedro was starting to take pouch per pouch, carefully counting the gold coins inside.

After Pedro counted them, he placed the checked pouches in his inventory bag. And while doing so, he took this chance to message his Aunt Veronicatelling her to inform the spy of Weyron to hide back to the treasure chest.

He said to his aunt that he would obtain the said treasure chest, on the next day, so the spy of Weyron should not be worried about his character dying anytime soon. And other than that, Pedro also said to his aunt to tell his cousin to go to the Tarala Kingdom soon and meet him there.

Although he was unsuccessful in conquering the Kingdom due to several circumstances, he was about to establish an authoritative and governing force for players instead. Pedro and Weyron would use this chance to rebuild the gold farming force that they had lost from the war.

With profit easily obtainable whilst gaining the favor of the other NPCs in behalf of the other players, it was truly the new definition of gold farming force. And although the other players are not necessarily part of their gold farming guild/organization, it would soon require their approval if the other players ever wanted to obtain quests from the NPCs.

Unfortunately, the Adventurer's Guild that they would be able to establish would only be available to the players within Aquari Continent. Expanding their influence to the other continents would be difficult, whether through the gameby traveling through the seas, or offlineby creating accounts overseas.

There is a possibility that there would be other players or gaming organizations to imitate what they would do on other servers. But One thing is for sure. It won't be that easy! After all There are no other players who had a similar influence with Pedro in the game.

Besides It was not like the players in the other continent are from a single big guild of some sort. There would definitely be different factions to form as the number of players continuously increases each second. There would definitely be a conflict in terms of control and authority, making the establishment of Adventurer's Guild a challenging task in other continents.

'If only teleportation portals could bring us to other continents' Pedro grumbled deep inside. Even he himself knew that it would be difficult to establish Adventurer's Guild in other continents. It was akin to establishing a similar organization to Bearth Human Organization but mainly composed of adventurers or players.

Well Although BHO members are at the pinnacle of what humanity could achieve, there was still a huge possibility that the players would be able to reachor even overcome, them within a few decades. So If such another global organization was established, and it was composed of players Not only does the strength of humanity would significantly increase, but they might even start to stand toe to toe with gods, goddesses, and demons.

That said, the expansion of Pedro's Adventurer's Guild would still be difficult, especially when he won't be able to do that at this point of the game. Because in the future, the different factions like guilds or gaming organizations were bound to have their own Kingdoms or strongholds. By that time, the need for quests in the NPC governed strongholds would decrease.

Fortunately, Pedro already knew of these challenges, especially when he thought of establishing the Adventurer's Guild in contingency to the desire of Weyron to govern a strong force by capitalizing on the weak state of the Tarala Kingdom.

Before Pedro finishes counting the gold coins, his Aunt Veronica went online and had informed him that they were able to successfully transmit the message to Weyron's spy. Unfortunately, his cousin won't be able to head to the Tarala Kingdom immediately, because he was busy gathering the thousand men of his guild.

His Aunt Veronica said that his cousin estimated that it would take them two to four more days before they would be able to march towards the Tarala Kingdom. This made Pedro scratch his head deep inside and thought, 'Two to four days??? That's too long! I need him to arrive as soon as possible so that I could transfer the authority to him and let him manage the Adventurer's Guild in my stead! Besides I can't let the spider dungeon left open that long It's not that I am worried that other players would take advantage of the source of my bug attack damage, but I am more worried for both players and NPCs falling prey to the spiders and consequently increasing their numbers... then, later on, be able to attack the nearby villages!'

'I even promised Neerak that I would protect their village' He sighed deeply. Coincidentally, at this moment, he had just finished counting the gold coins he earned. He forced out a smile to Duke Albert afterward, and said, "I am done Sorry for making you wait, Duke Albert."

Duke Albert simply rubbed the back of his head and said, "You need not worry I understand why you wanted to do this first! It was a skyrocketing amount that even set a new record in my auction den. There would definitely be some evil entities who would aim to steal your earnings. It is only natural that we handle it as soon as possible!"

Pedro nodded in response and said, "Thanks for understanding, Duke Albert! This profit is of importance to me. It would play an important role in the establishment of the Adventurer's Guild."

Duke Albert smirked in response and mockingly teased Pedro, saying, "It seems like you have carefully planned everything, sir Aron From the coins to the establishment of the Adventurer's Guild Are the members of the Legendary Bearth Human Organization this scary?"

Pedro laughed out loud in response and said, "It's all just coincidence, Duke Albert! Just coincidence! My true motive was to prevent a disaster from happening and save as many human lives as I can The strength, money, and power I gain were just additional rewards I get along the way."

"Coincidence, huh?" Duke Albert chuckled. Then, he took a deep sigh and said, "Anyway Since it is already evening and we are yet to eat our dinner, I would like to get straight to the point and ask yousir Aron, about how we should deal with the ones who were behind the chaos in the Kingdom and the death of the King?"

Pedro simply rubbed the back of his head and said, "I am not against the vampires nor do I have any suspicions to anyone so far. So although I did say to Duke Ersi that I would help find and exterminate such evil beings, that is only limited within the Tarala Kingdom. If the vampires go out of the Kingdom, then they would be out of my jurisdiction."

Duke Albert simply nodded in agreement and said, "You are right! However won't we risk the possibility of the escaping vampires to seek the help of the other vampires in other strongholds and act revenge for their fallen comrades in the future? I mean won't it be better to silence them all and avoid confrontation and battle against them in the future?"

Pedro simply nodded in response and said, "You have a point, Duke Albert! But Annihilating them would be extremely difficult I fear that a cornered snake would even bite harder, so I would suggest leaving them be if they can escape. Besides We won't gain anything in killing them other than buying time before the vampires from the other strongholds notice what happened here in the Kingdom. There's still the possibility of the enemy preparing their force and attack us once again later on."

"Well You have a point." Duke Albert said after making a bitter smile. Then, he continued, saying, "I guess we'll just have to avert the attention of everyone from the vampires when the news about the death of the King and Duke Kleon spreads out. Besides We are only certain that they are somehow involved in this mess We just don't know how much their involvement was."

Pedro simply nodded in response and said, "In any case Whoever is the one behind all of this I am confident that they would be found and persecuted by you and Duke Ersi."

"By us???" Duke Albert asked as he forced out a smile. Then, he continued, "What if the perpetrator was me o Ersi? Would we still be even persecuted?"

Pedro simply burst into laughter and said, jokingly, "The both of you are shapeshifting wolves, right? How would the both of you be acquainted with the vampires when you are amongst the werewolveswhich are their arch-enemy?"
