Chapter 172: Guard against fires, theft, and NPCs

"If you're really planning to stake out the place, I suggest you do more Heaven Kings' tasks beforehand to gain hidden reputation points. If you rank high, you might catch the attention of the city lord while staking out, and he might invite you in," Leo said nonchalantly, resting his chin on his hand.

This wasn't a game mechanism, but simply the Heaven Kings' city lord's way of attracting talented individuals. 

The city lord would try to win over valuable players and NPCs alike, believing that talents should be put to good use. 

Moreover, the tension between Heaven Kings and the Night Dragon City was escalating.

The city lord was increasingly reliant on the players, and there would likely be hidden tasks released by him alone. 

"And then what?" Emperor asked, his eyes wide as he sat at the bar, staring intently at Leo.
