Chapter 044: The bottom line can't be lost
At the same time, at the cloud forest.
A team gradually returned from the rest of the Cloud Forest.
Among them, including Ke Gaojie's cronies Ling Mingzhi, the first time he saw Ke Gaojie, Ling Mingzhi took him aside and talked about their experience, "The nearby resources have obviously been collected, and the number of demonic beasts is particularly small, so it should have been cleaned up." ”
You know, the materials revealed by the surrounding material points will be updated from time to time every day, although the things that come out are all based on the environment, but there are definitely a lot of them, and there are also demonic beasts, with the improvement of the strength of the territory, there will only be more and more, but it will not easily become less or even disappear.
Especially the boss, which must be refreshed every day, even if the number is limited, it is the biggest source of harvest for the territory team in a day.
In this way, this matter can only be done by Hope Village.
But they came relatively early, and the residents of Hope Village also collected supplies and cleaned up the demonic beasts, which obviously shows that the residents of Hope Village are preparing for the battle all the time, and took advantage of the night to do this.
Don't talk about how they did it at night, just say that this strength is even higher than they imagined.
Ke Gaojie was not stupid, even if Ling knew that what he said was vague, he also knew the meaning of what he said.
His face was slightly gloomy, he was also thinking about a sneak attack at night just now, and during the day, when they were defending, they cleaned up the material points of Hope Village, which could be regarded as taking advantage of some Hope Village.
But he didn't expect that Hope Village would also be plucked by geese.
"!" Ke Gaojie couldn't help but curse.
Reason told him that he should retreat, but emotionally he really didn't want this battle to end like this.
In his opinion, the apocalyptic game system created this war is obviously to hook up the competition between territories and territories, and use the resources of weak territories to promote the development of strong territories.
He failed this time, not to mention the loss of territorial resources, the development of the entire territory will lag behind, and if he falls behind, he will be beaten, and his territory may be controlled by other powerful territories in the future, which makes Ke Gaojie, who became a lord after the doomsday game, how can he bear it.
So he couldn't give up.
"As soon as it gets dark, we'll attack!" Ke Gaojie said calmly.
Ling Mingzhi looked at him blankly, he still had to fight like this?
"The pseudo-attack feints, consume their resources first, and wait until the early hours of the morning when they think we are going to retreat before sneaking up."
This was his last chance.
Moreover, if it is really defeated by then, the other party will not be considered without losses.
"Will they be fooled?" Ling Mingzhi asked rhetorically.
Ke Gaojie glanced at him, "Only we know, and others don't know, just make them think that we are really attacking, if a few people die, can make them believe that we are really defeated, what is it?" Anyway, there are quite a few people who die in the apocalyptic game. ”
Listening to Ke Gaojie's words, Ling Mingzhi couldn't help but feel a spirit.
originally thought that Ke Gaojie was just arrogant, and even harsh, at least he still maintained the stability of the territory, but he didn't expect that Ke Gaojie's heart was still so poisonous.
He's getting used to the apocalyptic game too quickly.
"Don't worry, you are my cronies, you have always supported me, and no one will give up on you if I give up." As if sensing Ling Mingzhi's concern, Ke Gaojie hurriedly comforted.
Ling Mingzhi said: "...... Be. ”
Seeing that Ling knew that he was so knowledgeable, Ke Gaojie turned around and returned to the crowd, and spoke to the team that was gradually returning, "Everyone recuperate, as soon as it gets dark, we will start attacking with all our might, then there will be Lucas and they will take the lead in the attack, everyone just follow behind them to attack, and then listen to my orders, retreat at any time, rest assured, if I can't fight, I will retreat as soon as possible, and I will not let our team die in vain, if someone is injured, I will also be responsible, and the reward will be doubled." ”
Ke Gaojie's words made many people at the scene feel at ease.
It looks like he's just trying to attack.
Ling Mingzhi in the crowd listened to the other party's high-sounding words, and the coldness in his heart was even worse.
Is such an indifferent and ruthless person worth following?
And when they were mobilizing, in a tree not far from them, Heidi and Frey glanced at each other and left in an instant.
As they were leaving, Lucas seemed to sense something, looked in the direction they had just been, and searched keenly.
"What's wrong? Got a problem over there? Tiger man O'Neill asked.
"I just felt a slight wave of magic, maybe it was my delusion!" Lucas the kobold thought about it for a moment, but still felt that it was wrong.
It should be unlikely that a mage will appear among the inhabitants of a level 1 village, and even if it does, it should not be able to escape his eyes.
"It's your delusion, I don't feel anything." The tiger-headed man O'Neill said firmly, and then looked at the stunned minotaur and pig-headed man on the side, "What about you?" ”
Fred the Minotaur and Paul the Hog-headed shook their heads and said in unison, "No." ”
Looking at their appearance, the tiger-headed man O'Neill's eyes were disgusted, there is also a chain of contempt among the orcs, the minotaur has a brute force, and the pig-headed man can only eat, and he is basically the vanguard of the orc clan.
But it's not bad to have them, they take the lead, and he just needs to enjoy the blessings in the back, O'Neill, the tiger-headed man, thought and began to count the gold coins in his account again.
What a lot of money in this human territory! It would be nice if I could summon more tiger heads in the future.
Silence had returned to the scene on one side, and while everyone was thinking about how to sneak up on the night, Heidi and Frey on the other side had returned to Hope Village.
Seeing the two of them appear, everyone's eyes on the scene fell on them.
"How?" Bayer was the first to ask.
"There are about two hundred people, all of them are above level 7, and there are four orcs, kobolds, tigers, bulllords and pig-headed people, kobolds have special skills, they should be able to estimate our population, coupled with the deterrence of the city wall, they dare not act rashly, and plan to collect materials and hunt demonic beasts in the cloud forest first, but I didn't expect them to be cleaned up by the residents of our territory."
As Heidi spoke, Bayer's gaze glanced at Zhou Bai without a trace.
He knew that as soon as it was past 12 o'clock last night, after making sure that it was not raining in the territory any longer, their lord immediately issued a night mission, saying that it was to train the team's ability to walk in the dark.
Their soldiers also cleaned it up, and it was used as training.
Before, he really felt that Zhou Bai, the lord, really wanted to exercise the night action ability of the residents in the territory, after all, many battles in the territory did take place at night.
But now, he doesn't think so!
He had a feeling that this was clearly Zhou Bai's reluctance to let other territories pick up the wool of their Hope Village.
It's so "stingy"!
But...... He loved it.
At this time, when listening to the other party's hopes being disappointed, Bayer was really happy.
Zhou Bai noticed Bayer's vague gaze, and his expression was calm.
Those are the resources of the territory, how can she give the opportunity to others? Not the slightest possibility.
So, she did the right thing.
Another day to protect your property.
After Heidi finished talking about this matter, she continued to talk about Ke Gaojie's follow-up plan, and when the plan was released, Li Xingteng and Zhou Zhengping, who were listening to the scene, couldn't help but be angry.
"Isn't this Overlord Village Lord too disgusting?"
"What the hell is a resident to him?"
"It's so inhuman!"
"Obviously all human, he ......"
“……”
The residents of Hope Village on the scene were all angry, Bayer and other NPCs were very used to it, looking at everyone's indignant appearance, they said indifferently: "On the Stan Continent, in the territory, this is too common, if some people can be sacrificed to win, many lords are willing to do this, and even are already doing it!" ”
Even the reason why he and Heidi became ghosts was that they were forced to sacrifice in the battle between territories.
Zhou Bai in the crowd listened to Bayer's words, looked at the accustomed faces of several NPCs, but said directly, "Others do that, it doesn't mean that we have to do it, there are sacrifices in the territorial war, we admit it, but we don't admit it if we deliberately send people to die to win the victory!" ”
Even if the arrival of the apocalyptic game world has changed the way of the world and changed the rules of survival, she has learned to fight hard, but no matter what, some bottom lines cannot be lost.
"Yes, we don't admit it, war can be tactical, but not intrigues." Zhou Zhengping also spoke in agreement, glanced at Zhou Bai, and his eyes were full of relief.
"That is, deliberately sending people to die, such a territory will not last long."
"If we know that a territory is so for us, such a territory is not worth serving."
"Fighting openly, even if we die, our skills are not as good as others, but if it is deliberate, I will definitely die blindly."
“……”
One by one, there were voices of opposition at the scene.
At this moment, the hearts of several NPCs such as Bayer were touched a little.
Although the residents of Hope Village are weak and even have all kinds of minor problems, at the same time, most of them have something different from the humans in this world, kind and principled......
What made Bayer care more about the lord was Zhou Bai, they didn't forget that Zhou Bai was the first to jump out, in addition to opposition, it was also more of a warning to them, warning them not to use the same method as Ke Gaojie.
Bayer exhaled a long breath in his heart and said seriously: "Even if other territories are doing it, our territory will not do this!" ”
He had a hunch that if this territory could really develop so openly, in the future, it would definitely become a force to be reckoned with on the continent of Stan.
Because beauty is always desirable.
