. Condolences..............Back in his room, Lu Cheng took a deep breath and double-checked all the competition rules...Afterwards, he picked up the map of Wangbingdao Island, and carefully studied it...The Red Moon Guild gathered over 700 people in a short period of time, and almost all the combat-capable Card Masters in the town where the Red Moon Manor is located joined.

There are over 600 auxiliary and low-combat power farm staff, while there are only a few dozen blue staff.

But what's truly formidable is the Flower Brigade under Prince Rose. This consists of nearly 50 elite Blood Race cardmasters, most of whom are low-star purple cardmasters, wielding unique blood powers and possessing terrifying abilities.

The Crimson Moon Brigade's business currently only operates within the town, but their reputation has reached Wintermoon City. Basically, everyone in Wintermoon knows about this civilian group that can exchange aggravated energy for some cards.

It can not only protect one's own farm, but also bring practical benefits.

For the sake of reputation, the Crimson Moon Manor's exchange window is open to everyone. However, for non-Crimson Moon members, deteriorated cards can only be exchanged for some small souvenir cards, which is better than nothing.

"Captain, here are today's earnings. Please take a look~" A female vampire carefully handed Lu Cheng a card shrouded in black mist, then bowed.

"Thank you for your hard work." Lu Cheng nodded.

He didn't know what order the rose had given, but Lu Cheng found that he could now bypass the rose and directly order the flower group. He also had control over the building card [Crimson Moon Manor].

Here, transformed by the Rose Prince into a fortress, every inch is bristling with thorns and traps.

Lu Cheng was just about to go back and wash his card when Rose walked over.

"Captain, these deteriorated cards are useless. Your storage space won't be much either, right"

"Um," Lu Cheng now didn't even dare to say he could wash it, let alone make a big profit!

"Alright, I have some more. What's up" Lu Cheng asked.

"The new decree has been issued, Your Majesty." said Rose.

Lu Cheng was taken aback. What decree did this young lion king have

"With the wartime economy strained, the guild's subsidies were replaced with war bonds, and he ordered that the guilds transition to a commission system for dealing with escalating energy problems within the province. They could receive payment for their work, but," Rose smiled, "taxes would apply. After transitioning to a commission system, the guild leader's expenses weren't as burdensome."

Wow!

Lu Cheng still thought that Young Lion King would at least give a portion, but it turned out to be replaced by bonds instead.

This is freaking daylight robbery! Not only did he make the civilian groups work for nothing, but he also wants to charge them!

But here, with extraordinary power suppression, lords, kings, and the divine authority hold absolute power. Uprisings are very difficult. On this continent, lords are basically not good people.

It is truly a hardship for the people, bringing both suffering and demise.

Go back to the card domain.

After having a stable income, the development is still very fast.

Youdu Mountain already has a 【Mine】 and a 【Logging Camp】.

Every day, it will steadily produce [Iron Ore] and [Midnight Bamboo].

However, according to Kong Ming's opinion, it was still insufficient.

There is a limit to the number of card buildings that can be built in a domain card, as well as a slot limitation. It also requires energy from the cardmaster himself.

But the most important thing is safety.

When I become a lord later, I can put buildings inside the province.

After securing the materials, Lu Cheng is expanding the [Institution Workshop], intending to upgrade it into the [Celestial Engineering Pavilion].

He has already expanded a specialized 【Forgemaster's Guild】.

Of course, the current director is also like Zhuge Liang, the elder brother.

The Foundry can currently craft the 【Zhu Ge Lian Nu】 and 【Fire Lance】.

Mysterious Iron Fire Gun

Card Type: Equipment Card

Expansion Pack: Oriental Mythology - Human World

Card Rank: Blue 10-Star

Ramen Energy: {Explosive Power (100)}

Introduction: Seven steps away, the gun is fast. Within seven steps, the gun is both accurate and fast!

Card Skill 1: Firepower (This card requires no energy to use. When used, it consumes the [Gunpowder] and [Bullets] on its face to deal "Moderate" physical damage.)

Card Skill 2: Precision (This card has 6 levels of precision, which makes its ranged attacks hit more often than normal.)

Card Skill 3: Bayonet (Combine with [Black Iron Bayonet] in your deck. This card is treated as a melee weapon and can deal melee damage.)

After learning about the existence of fire guns, Zhuge Liang immediately ordered Lu Cheng to stop all other tasks and urgently investigate all mines within the winter month. He purchased a massive amount of stock at extremely low prices.

Things like muskets and cannons, while powerful, wouldn't even scratch a [Apostle] or a [Birdman] in the Overworld. It would be ridiculous to try using them.

But it has a very buggy skill.

Under normal circumstances, the card master needs energy to draw out the blue 10-star crossbow cards. That definitely requires a blue 10-star card master.

But 【Firearm】 is different, even low-star card masters and cards can use it.

and

Of course, even after equipping bayonet, you still need a Level 10 star card master and cards to fight.

Moreover, it's still long-range. Perhaps an insignificant sharpshooter could assassinate a high-ranking official giving a speech by the shrine

【Firearms】are well-suited to the current situation.

Unfortunately, only Lü Cheng is currently available, and the output is not high.

During the Three Kingdoms period, archery and cavalry had made significant progress.

But I presume Brother Zhuge has never seen the 【Ghostly Bird Scout of Youdu (Firelance)】.

---- Aside ----

Well, this chapter was reviewed, so it's late.

Because, um

I pulled an all-nighter, cough cough, deleted a few hundred words.

But it's okay, haha, I don't know why today, just happy, make up for it tomorrow! were a Gold Card Master, I could probably have a special attack against 【Sindragosa】, but as the incarnation of 【Guardian】, at most I'd only be a purple level, which is pretty good.But Lu Cheng didn'...
