Chapter 562: Secrets of the Ancient City, Lin Ye’s Choice

At this time, Lin Ye, who was still in the secret realm, really didn't know what happened in the tavern.

To be honest, he even forgot about Chi Yue...

If Chi Yue hadn't had to provoke Cang Kewu at the beginning, he would definitely not have ended up like this.

It can only be said that his character doomed his ending at this time.

In fact, Chi Yue was already one of the few lucky ones who could survive Lin Ye's hands and not be killed.

But Chi Yue relied on his strong ability to commit suicide and let Lin Ye indirectly destroy his loyalty...

Although he is still alive now, for a lord who originally had a promising future, this is simply worse than death.

Even he ended up like this because of Lin Ye, and Lin Ye had no idea at all, which made it even more ironic.

Lin Ye was too lazy to pay attention to these at this time.

Because the secret realm settlement was over, everyone else received the reward and was forced to leave the secret realm, but he hadn't received his reward yet.

This is not surprising. It is possible that the ending of the hidden mode of this secret realm is open.

Moreover, it is obvious that this ending is only related to Lin Ye, and the other people who made up the numbers were forced to leave.

After Lin Ye killed the shadow, the entire Gulos City was clear of the haze.

In the ruins of the royal court, some golden light spots flew out, and a golden figure condensed in front of Lin Ye.

This is a tall man.

"Brother, as I thought, you will eventually choose to come back and end it all..." The golden shadow said.

Lin Ye raised his eyebrows, he knew that he was not the younger brother.

The "Destroyer Commander Seal" on his body is the real younger brother...

Although Lin Ye basically didn't care about the plot in the secret realm before, it is not difficult to see that what happened in Gulos City is nothing more than a drama of brothers fighting.

It is probably that the younger brother wants to compete with his elder brother for the control of the city-state, but he can't compete, so he has a perverse idea and borrows the power of evil demons.

As a result, one of them failed to control the whole city-state.

As the "Destroyer Commander", Lin Ye played the role of the younger brother in this secret realm. Combined with the title "Atoner" obtained after completing the task, it is not difficult to analyze that the content of the entire task is that Lin Ye played the role of the younger brother and came back to clean up the mess he left behind.

There was no reward at the end of the task, which meant that Lin Ye had to choose the content of the reward.

As expected, after a slight pause, the other party spoke again: "I am very pleased that you finally found your way back... It's just a pity that I didn't protect Gulos City in the end. As you can see, this city-state is now only in ruins."

There was loneliness in the tone of light and shadow.

After all, he had tried his best, even to the last moment, even if he was swallowed by the shadow demon.

"I can no longer take on the burden of Gulos City, but I hope you can... or, will you be willing to restore the glory of Gulos City?" Light and shadow asked expectantly.

At this time, Lin Ye finally saw the two options in front of him:

[Choose ‘Yes’, you will directly obtain the core of a super-large city-state, but the ‘Royal Court Ruins’ secret realm will disappear permanently]

[Choose ‘No’, the ‘Royal Court Ruins’ secret realm will continue to exist and be under your control! ]

Of course, in addition to these two options, there are some fixed rewards.

[Fixed rewards: Shadow Demon Eye (gold, necklace), Shadow Kingdom map fragments]

In addition, there are a lot of material and experience rewards, which have been given to Lin Ye in advance when the settlement is made.

Ignoring the fixed rewards for the time being, Lin Ye looked at the two options...

To be honest, both options have their own advantages.

The first one is to directly obtain the core of a super-large city-state, which is enough to make many races crazy.

In addition, building a super-large city-state is also of substantial benefit to the lord.

In the area affected by the core, the city lord is basically invincible, and the influence range of a super-large city-state is often hundreds of miles!

In addition, there are various benefits.

For example, opening up the quota for entering the city, conducting business activities, etc.

It can be said that a super-large city-state is enough for a lord to gain a foothold in the war zone, and even the race he belongs to can get more space for activities in the war zone.

However, Lin Ye directly skipped this option.

The reason is simple...

The preciousness of this super-large city-state core is reflected in the fact that other races are difficult to obtain through normal challenges.

But Lin Ye does not have this worry.

Lin Ye can upgrade any city-state core to the level of a super-large core through challenges.

So this option is meaningless to him.

Lin Ye basically blindly chooses the second option and it's done...

According to Lin Ye's previous experience of gaining control of the "Falling Thunder Valley", this choice is actually not bad.

Because, this is equivalent to opening up a second field for Lin Ye!

And this is something that very few people know. After all, in history, lords who have the ability to complete hidden tasks and control secret realms are absolutely rare. This information may not even be known to the top leaders of most races.

If you choose not to continue to build Gulos City at this time, then this city-state in a semi-ruin state will continue to exist in the abyss as the secret realm of the "Royal Court Ruins".

Lin Ye chose to keep Gulos City as it is without hesitation.

The light and shadow sighed and said, "Since this is your choice, I respect you... In fact, this is a relief for both you and me, isn't it? My brother..."

As he spoke, the light and shadow in front of Lin Ye's eyes dispersed with the wind. Although he was regretful, he still rested in peace.

Or for emotional considerations, Lin Ye should agree to this "brother" to continue to build and restore the glory of Gulos City.

After all, this city-state also fell to this point because of the greed of Lin Ye, the "brother".

But this kind of forced "moral kidnapping" plot orientation is completely ineffective for Lin Ye.

In Lin Ye's view, this kind of dog-blood plot is a test for the lord who completes the task...

After all, if you are a little more emotional, you may choose the first option among the two options that seem to have the same benefits.

But in Lin Ye's opinion, choosing not to accept is the best solution...

A city-state in a level 60 war zone has a ceiling.

But the secret realm can be transformed into a domain, which can always be used by you...

There is no need to think hard about which is better or worse.
