Chapter 807: The Sunlit Secret Realm (Part 8)
Chapter 807: The Sunlit Secret Realm (Part 8)
"Right, we can't turn on each other," Akane said first.
If Xiaotian and the others were on the same team, they might follow the script and eliminate the opposing team to win. But now they are on different teams. Whether Xiaotian dies or the other three die, it's completely unacceptable.
If the other three sacrifice Xiaotian to gain the rewards, what would the people of Blue Star think? They would definitely feel guilty for the rest of their lives. How could they explain this to Su Yu?
So, the only solution left is to break the script.
"Even if we get no rewards, we four must leave the secret realm together alive!" Senpai Nozumi said firmly.
"Right, I love a saying from your world—'If the land is lost, all people are lost; if the people are lost, all land is lost. Even if we get no rewards, we cannot easily abandon any of our companions!" said Fujiwara Chika.
"Thank you, there are not many people from your world who share this awareness," Xiaotian walked forward and smiled, putting his arm around Fujiwara Chika.
"Now, the only problem left is this one," Akane said seriously. "With the situation as it is now, how do we break the deadlock?"
"This..." Senpai Nozumi and Fujiwara Chika were immediately stumped. They had no good ideas to break the deadlock.
However, Xiaotian seemed prepared, and Senpai Nozumi asked, "Xiaotian, do you have any ideas?"
"Of course, I do have some, but it needs to be verified," Xiaotian nodded. "On the way here, I've thought of many strategies. Now, let's think about it. The only one that might work is to kill Duke City Lord and the Hive Queen!""
"Kill them?" the three of them were taken at the same time, this plan is indeed quite bold!
"Right," Xiaotian said seriously. "I don't know the situation at the hive, but from my observations, Dok City Lord is a core leader of the Blue People and a mental totem. The entire Sunlit City is because of Dok City Lord that the Blue People can come together as a cohesive force. If Dok dies killed, the Blue People's core armies will likely fall completely destroyed, and they will no longer be able to fight. The only way to break the deadlock is to kill Dok City Lord and the Hive Queen. If they are successful, the entire secret realm will be in chaos, and the Blue People will be in disarray. But Xiaotian was still focused, and he said, "I'll do it. The only way to break the deadlock is to kill Dok City Lord and the Hive Queen. If they are successful, the entire secret realm will be in chaos, and the Blue People will be in disarray."
The three of them were still taken aback by this bold plan. "This is a big risk, but it's worth the try. If we can't kill them, we might be able to break the deadlock. If we succeed, the entire secret realm will be in chaos, and the Blue People will be in disarray. But we will try. If we are successful, we will have broken the deadlock. The only way to break this bold plan, we will see it. If we are successful, the entire secret realm will be in chaos, and the Blue People will be in disarray. But we will try. If we are successful, we will have broken the deadlock. The only way to break the deadlock is to kill Dok City Lord and the Hive Queen. If they are successful, the entire secret realm will be in chaos, and the Blue People will be in disarray. But we will try. If we are successful, we will" "Let's do it," Xiaotian said, and they began their discussion. The discussion continued from the afternoon until late into the night.
The next morning, the explorers gathered at the entrance to the craftsmen's district, eager to earn points on the battlefield.
The assistant of the insectoid hive lord arrived on time and addressed the explorers, "Are we all here? Is anyone still missing?"
"Everyone should be here," the explorers looked around. There were only 25 of them, so it was easy to confirm.
However, after a quick scan, they realized only 22 had shown up. Three were missing.
"Lord Assistant, Gu Hong, Xu Yun, and Fujiwara Chika haven't arrived," one of the Skrull explorers reported to the insectoid hive lord's assistant.
"Late… very well, these three will have 5% of their points deducted," the assistant said, taking out a small notebook and using his front claws to write. The points of the three missing explorers were immediately reduced by 5%.
Seeing the points deducted from the trio, some of the other explorers couldn't hide their satisfaction, especially those whose rankings were close to the missing three.
"Go find them," the assistant said calmly. "If you find these three, the deducted points will be yours."
"Got it, we'll find them right away!" The explorers were excited and quickly dispersed to search the depths of the artisan district.
Honestly, those points were a significant amount!
But unfortunately, things didn't go as planned.
They searched the artisan district for half an hour, combing through every corner, but found none of the missing explorers.
It was as if the three had vanished without a trace.
When the news reached the insectoid hive lord's assistant, he was taken aback, his antennae twitching irregularly.
The disappearance of the three was completely unexpected.
However, there was nothing he could do about it.
They needed to head to the front lines immediately and couldn't waste any more time on this issue. Since the three had deserted, there was no choice but to proceed without them.
The insectoid hive lord's assistant used a summoning bug call to gather everyone and the high-level magical beasts.
Once the 22 explorers were assembled, he said, "Gu Hong, Xu Yun, and Fujiwara Chika have disobeyed orders by hiding and refusing to join the battle. This is a serious violation of discipline!
Hereby, I announce that 30% of their points will be deducted according to the rules. These points will be awarded to the explorers who perform best in the battle."
"Great!"
"Thank you, Lord Assistant!"
The explorers were now more motivated than ever.
Fujiwara Chika and Xu Yun were fine; they didn't have many points to begin with.
But Gu Hong was at the top of the points leaderboard, and 30% of his points were more than many others had in total!
The explorers were determined to perform well in the battle, as this was their only chance to surpass Gu Hong in points.
...
After getting organized, the insectoid hive lord's assistant led the 22 explorers out of the artisan district and the hive, heading southeast toward the core battlefield.
This was the first time the 22 explorers had left the hive, and they were quite intrigued by everything outside.
As they walked out, the explorers kept looking around, examining their surroundings with curiosity, like elementary school students on a field trip.
The insectoid hive lord's assistant ignored their curiosity and led them directly to the core of the battlefield.
In this area, the insectoid hive lord and the Dok City Lord were about to engage in battle. The confrontation between high-level entities was imminent.
Both sides were ready, and the battle was about to begin.
