Chapter 69 Chapter 69: Free Meal?
Although Ren Qi did not know what was in the mountains behind him, he could feel that the mountains behind him were definitely very dangerous.
In the chat group, the new lords were still discussing the matter of the monsters attacking again three hours later.
[ Lords, is there anyone near the trading channel No. 22? Please cover me, I can give you everything, as long as you can keep me alive. ] [ It’s over, it’s over. I don’t have any other lords around me. Last night’s monster attack caused my troops to lose everything. The defense around me was also damaged. I can only wait for death! ]
[ Don’t be discouraged. There might be a chance for things to turn around. No one can say for sure until the last moment. ]
Turn around?
Some of the weaker new lords smiled bitterly. With their current situation, if they had a day or two of buffer time, there might be a chance for things to turn around.
But now, there would be a new monster attack in three hours. What other turn could there be?
( Damn it, I’m really unwilling. I learned so much knowledge just for the sake of displaying my skills when the territory space appeared. I didn’t expect that I would awaken a Tier-2 soldier, making it difficult for me to control my own life and death. ]
[ That’s right, it’s not fair. How can others have a high-tier soldier? ]
[ Sigh, what’s the point of saying all this? This world isn’t fair to begin with. )
Because of the upcoming new monster attack, some of the new lords who knew that they couldn’t handle it began to complain.
However, this wasn’t a game. They couldn’t just report back to the customer service.
Reality was reality. Even if they were unwilling, they still had to accept it.
[ Everyone, don’t say such disheartening words. Think about whether there’s any other way.)
( What other way? We can only depend on luck. Don’t tell me we can just abandon the territory and run away? ]
[ Don’t talk like that, person above. This might really be a way. After all, we know that the territory will be broken through. We might as well just run away.]
[ But the territory is the foundation. Without the territory, how can we establish ourselves here? ]
[ What is there to establish ourselves now? It is already good enough to keep our lives. ]
[ Although there is basically no room for development after giving up the territory, the existing resources and troops will not disappear. Didn’t there used to be hunters in the past? ]
[ The so-called hunters are a group of people who gave up the territory and focused on improving the strength of the existing troops. They can not be compared to the lords. Moreover, they basically need to return to the city to recuperate for a long time after hunting in the wilderness once. There is no city here for you to recuperate. ]
[ So what if that is the case? If you don’t have the city to recuperate, then find another lord to seek protection. Hand over all the resources and your own troops to work for the other party. I don’t believe that no one will take you in. ]
[ That’s right, brothers. Let’s not talk about it anymore. Olly will do it! Cheers! I have already brought my troops and resources out. Who is willing to take me in? The resources are all yours. The troops will work for you. They only want to save their lives. ]
[ The person upstairs is really fast. Wait for me, I’ll come too. )
[ In any case, waiting for death here is the same as waiting for death elsewhere. I’ve also given up on my territory. Even if there are no other lords taking me in, it’s still better than staying in my territory and waiting for death. ]
Following the news in the chat group, many of the weaker new lords started to choose to give up on their territory. They brought their troops and resources to seek the protection of the stronger new lords, or they directly found a hidden place to hide.
To them, staying in their territories was the end of their lives. There wouldn’t be any other outcome.
If they gave up their territories, it would be better if there was a big shot taking them in. If there wasn’t, it would be better to find a secluded place to hide. It was better than directly losing their territories and dying.
Ren Qi looked at the news in the chat group, and his eyes flickered slightly.
It couldn’t be said that these new lords made the wrong choice. Their choice was very correct.
Of course, after making such a choice, they would basically be wiped out. Their lives could only depend on the big shots or luck.
[ Haha, it’s too depressing to stay in the territory. I finally have a chance (courage) to come out.)
[ Screw the demon wave, screw the monsters. I don’t care. Even if I die, I want to see the scenery around me. I must not be so cowardly that I can’t even take a step out of the territory.)
[ That’s great. My life will ultimately be in my hands.]
In the chat group, some of the new lords who were about to give up their territories immediately became excited.
Most of the other lords remained silent because they knew that this was the last time this group of people would celebrate.
Of course, some of the other new lords would still accept them. After all, they would be given resources and support jobs.
However, it was still a little dangerous for others to bring other’s troops into their own territory, so not many people could be accepted.
Most of the new lords who gave up their territories could only rely on luck to survive.
Just as Ren Qi was feeling emotional, a new message appeared in the chat group, attracting everyone’s attention.
[ Brothers, my military branch is an electronic intelligent military branch. After reaching level 50, I awakened a new ability. I spent a day and a night to create a list. ]
[ My electronic intelligent military branch will release a large number of small electronic devices that will be distributed throughout the entire region. They will be able to record the number of monsters killed by all the new lords. ]
[ I will temporarily name this list as the Kill list. Three hours later, when the monsters attack, the calculation will begin. The number of monsters killed by each new lord will be displayed on the list. ]
[ Of course, this list is not open to the public. Those who want to see the list can pay me 100 kilograms of Tier-6 demonic meat or 20 energy crystals. That is the payment to see the list for seven days. ]
[ This is only the initial function. There will be more and more functions developed in the future. If you need anything, you can contact me. ]
Everyone was shocked by this piece of information.
How could he earn resources like this?
He could create a Kill List and provide it to those who needed it in exchange for resources.
This was a very feasible path. Of course, the prerequisite was that one had to have such an intelligent army.
Ren Qi raised his eyebrows. For those newborn lords who couldn’t survive, they naturally wouldn’t buy this kind of ranking list. After all, a hundred kilograms of Tier 6 demonic meat or 20 energy crystals would only allow them to view the seven-day ranking list.
This guy was quite smart to think of making money like this.
The key was that his price tag was also very
good.
A hundred kilograms of Tier-6 demonic meat or 20 energy crystals wasn’t too expensive for those lords who wanted to check the strength of other new lords.
However, if more people bought it, the amount of resources gathered together would be terrifying
This guy was about to take off!
Although his army sounded like a support force, with the accumulation of large amounts of resources, his army’s strength would increase very quickly.
Ren Qi thought for a moment and directly sent a message to the other party. [ I offer 100 catties of Tier-6 demonic meat for the right to check this list for seven days. ]
100 catties of Tier 6 demonic meat was nothing to Ren Qi, but this list could record the killing of other lords, so it was worth a look.
With this, he could roughly guess the strength of the other new lords.
Soon, the other party’s reply came.
[ So it’s Big Brother Seven. I’ll immediately send you a portion. You don’t have to pay for the demonic meat. Just treat it as a gift from me. )
Ren Qi was stunned. What was going on?
A free meal?
