Chapter 258: The Galaxy's Scheme
Until the two of them walked all the way to the gate of the Lancarlos City Lord's Mansion, Xingyun Yijian's mind was still dizzy by the words spoken by Xinghe.
The official operator of Redemption has developed such a popular online game, not to make money, but purely to let players achieve the ultimate mission goal of the game - in other words, to make players completely raid the game rather than make players' money, which is simply ridiculous.
But even so, the examples given to him by Xinghe and the analysis made through these examples...... Although not all details can be perfectly justified, they are generally logical. Nebula Yijian's mindset made him not immediately persuaded by Xinghe, but if he wanted to say how to refute Xinghe, Xingyun Yijian couldn't find any obvious thinking loopholes for a while.
Looking back at Xingyun Yijian's expression, Xinghe, who knew his subordinates, could also see that Xingyun Yijian was not really convinced by his statements. Xinghe was not angry or disappointed by this, after all, as the proposer of this idea, he knew better than anyone the absurdity of this, in fact, even he himself had always been full of confusion and lack of confidence in this kind of idea, if it wasn't for an unexpected discovery by him in this national war, I am afraid he would not have made a decision like now, give up and fight with the dark domain in the national war and then run to Lancarros in the rear for a plausible clue.
“…… Yijian, I know, it is difficult to be convincing to say these words all of a sudden, although I do not have any evidence to prove the correctness of my unbelievable guess, but I have to say that I did find some interesting clues in this national war...... Yijian, have you paid attention to the players on the side of the empire, who are the most prominent people since the beginning of this national war information chapter? ”
Although Xingyun Yijian is not in charge of intelligence gathering in the Star Palace, after all, he is also a high-level figure in the guild, and he still has some knowledge of some important intelligence information in the game, so after thinking about it for a while, he immediately found out some news from his memory that he had read on the forum recently.
"It should be the one who shepherds the world, right? I remember not long ago, the Empire attacked and destroyed a small military camp on the side of our Federation, and the leader of the team seemed to be one of the vice presidents of Mu Tianxia. ”
Hearing Xingyun Yijian's words, Xinghe shook his head.
"It is true, but if you judge it based on this kind of thing alone, it is a partial generalization."
"Uh...... The subordinates are ashamed. ”
"There was indeed a hype on the forum, but in fact, if you investigate it, you can find that this seemingly wonderful surprise attack is the only achievement worth talking about in this national war. I asked Promise to do a detailed statistical survey on the battlefield of the national war and within the empire side, in fact, the player force with the most active battlefield on the imperial side in this national war is not the herding world at all, but the blood rage tribe. ”
Xingyun Yijian was stunned for a moment, the Blood Fury Tribe, in the Inland Sea camp battle with the Dark Domain, chose the wrong camp and lost a big loss, and was finally squeezed into the second position of the Imperial Guild Power Ranking by the rival Mu Tianxia, and in various senses, the Dark Domain on the side of the Federation is like a brother.
As the first guild, Mu Tianxia is weak, while the Blood Fury Tribe, which has not completely lost its competitiveness after being squeezed into the second place, is showing its skills in the national war, and this situation is exactly the same as on the side of the Federation...... Could it be ......
"After I found out about this, I immediately asked Promise to use the manpower on the side of the empire to investigate the whereabouts of Mu Yun and the main elite forces of Mu Yun and Mu Tianxia, according to the report, Mu Yun and some of the elite members of Mu Tianxia did not enter the southern area of the empire close to the battlefield of the national war, but stayed in the north of the empire, claiming to be a strategy when a dungeon group in the north was fully developed."
Saying this, Xinghe laughed, but he was not laughing at Mu Yun for not fighting the national war but running to play the copy honestly, but seemed to be laughing at Mu Yun's level of making excuses.
"Raiders script group? Is Mu Yun really a fool when everyone in the game, anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is preparing for the plot of the invasion of the beast spirit clan that may appear next, and I can even imagine that his old opponents on the side of the empire, including the Blood Fury Tribe, may not be less than laughing at him. After all, even if the invasion of the beast spirit clan really happened, it was just a new main story, compared to the national war information that invested in stable and controllable benefits, and even could accumulate a large amount of popularity and morale in a short period of time, the benefits of the game with the main story were not so easy to predict, and it was even possible that the final plot evolved like the late stage of this storm inland sea, and it became a pure NPC battle that had nothing to do with the player, if that was the case, Mu Tianxia would lose a lot this time......"
“…… It's just that I can figure out this kind of truth, the Blood Fury Tribe and others can figure it out, and he can't figure it out if he can't figure out Mu Yun, who has risen from the world with a pure grassroots background? ”
"Young Master, what do you mean...... Mu Yun: He has other plans? ”
Xingyun Yijian said a nonsense, but just as he said that cross talk should be praised in addition to teasing, his just right sentence not only did not affect Xinghe but made him more and more interested in talking.
"Mu Yun, to be honest, I can't see through him, but what is certain is that he was able to build Mu Yun from scratch, relying on more than just his ability to play games...... It's an accident to take the lead in the game's plot or even in the duel with hostile forces once or twice, but if you can do it almost every time, then this person's strategy is definitely not to be underestimated. I'm not sure yet, but I do have some doubts...... The speculations I just told you, with Mu Yun's understanding of this game and his own mind, are not unexpected. And if Mu Yun and I have the same idea, then the matter of him taking the elites of the guild to the north to prepare to participate in the invasion of the beast spirit clan is really worth studying. ”
"The grievances between the Northern Beast Spirit Clan and the Empire can be regarded as a plot line that has continued on the Empire side since the beginning of the game, and there is even a reason why the Federation took the initiative to declare war on the Empire this time and opened the National War Information Chapter, according to the information we collected from the high-level NPCs of the Federation Council, in fact, the Federation was actually secretly instigated by the Northern Beast Spirit Clan, and accepted the alliance request of the Northern Beast Spirit Clan to attack the Empire from the north to the south. If the Federation and the Empire have always had a vendetta and a good reason for war, then why are the Northern Beasts so obsessed with attacking the Empire?
"Although the Northern Beast Spirit Clan and the Radiant Empire are also considered to be enemies who have been at war all year round, but unlike the Federation side that has never died because of mortal hatred, the Beast Spirit Clan is not so much a grudge against the Empire, but with the entire human race, and hundreds of years have passed, and I don't know how many old feuds have been left over from the Creation War through mediation and pacification by peacemakers such as the Black and White Dragon King, the Goddess of Creation Sect, and the Elf Clan, and the Beast Spirit Clan has been harassing and attacking the empire on the border all year round, in order to most of them are not seeking revenge at all, Rather, it is because the beast spirits, who are not good at farming, must rely on raiding the human race to obtain enough food to survive.
"At least from the background history and other materials available to players in the game, the Northern Orcs have never really shown a desire for the territories under the Empire, and to put it mildly, they even need the Terrans to occupy these lands for a long time, so that they can have a place to loot when their food and resources are insufficient...... But only this time after the players entered the game, the Northern Beast Spirit Clan showed a completely different desire for aggression. Hope--not for plundering but for occupation, this abnormal desire for war is undoubtedly quite abnormal compared to the northern beast spirit clan in the past. ”
Speaking of which, the two of them had already walked to the gate of the inner courtyard of the Lancaros City Lord's Mansion, and Xinghe did not immediately go in to find the City Lord NPC Farouo they were looking for, but stood still and looked up at the sky in the direction of the Eastern Continent.
"In the plot of the Inland Sea turmoil, after being eroded by chaos, even the original gentle and upright order will be free from evil and rage, especially aggressive - although the northern beast spirit clan does not show any signs of erosion, but their abnormal aggressiveness this time is itself a rather doubtful point, and referring to the previous Prince Yekal and his subordinates even have the ability to deceive the player's system judgment of camouflage order, It is even more doubtful whether there is chaos behind the invasion of the empire by the Northern Beast Spirit Clan this time.
"And to exclude this point, once the war of the beast spirit clan invading the empire breaks out, it will be no different from the national war on the surface, it will be a meaningless internal friction of the order camp, but considering that the old feud scars between the beast spirit and the human race that have been gradually healed over the years may be torn apart again bloodily, in fact, this will weaken and harm the order camp much more than the national war. If you think about it from the perspective of 'expelling chaos to defend order', then going north to participate in the defense of the border, repel the beast spirit clan, and even deeply explore the secret behind the beast spirit clan's abnormal aggression is the most correct and most suitable approach to the purpose of the game - and I suspect that Mu Yun withdrew from the national war this time and led the team north. ”
Speaking of this, Xinghe narrowed his eyes, as if he could cross the long map distance and directly see the man in the Eastern Continent who was named the "thief god".
"The Dark Realm and the Bloodfury Tribe...... These old professional guilds seem to have a big business, but in fact, the twilight is hidden in them without knowing it, if nothing else, our future opponent in the game is likely to be the empire's Shepherd World - since Mu Yun's vision is no longer limited to the national war, we naturally can't lag behind him, that's why I handed over the national war to the magic knife and the promise to be in charge, and then brought you here to find the city lord of Lancarlos Farouo. ”
With that, Xinghe turned his head and walked into the inner courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion, and after showing a certificate of federal honor to the NPCs of the guards who wanted to stop him, he walked straight to the house where Farouo usually worked.
Seeing this, Xingyun Yijian hurriedly followed.
"But young master, why is it Farouo, the lord of Lancarros? Although he is also a member of the New Liberal Legislature, hasn't Lancarros County already begun to decline within the Free Federation? ”
Xinghe shook his head disapprerovingly.
"Farouo, the lord of Lancarros, I have been following him since the time of the invasion of the undead, if you compare Lancarlos to a small country, this 'country' and all the characters in the country have been going downhill since the invasion of the undead in Bekaz, but this Farouo has been going all the way upstream, not only single-handedly supporting the situation of the declining Lancarlos County, but even becoming the only representative of Lancaros County in the New Liberal Council because of his performance in the invasion of the undead.
"This NPC has almost never made mistakes in its decision-making in major plots, and has always maintained a good relationship with the Goddess of Creation Sect, and this time he is the only one in the Free Council who has been resolutely opposing it until the end, and believes that the Federation should now focus more on the strange realm on the west side that has recently had strange rumors related to Chaos, rather than on the battlefield of the national war with the Empire...... Obviously, if 'expelling the Chaos Guardian Order' is the main theme, then this Farou is the most 'rooted' one at the mental level among the high-level NPCs of the Federation.
"So, instead of bothering to convince those NPCs of the main battle faction to give up the national war, let's see if this NPC who is firmly opposed to the national war has any way to reverse the situation, and even, the chaos rumors on the side of the strange domain that he said may be a good opportunity for us in the Hall of Stars to go north to deal with the beast spirit clan."
