Chapter 773: Chapter 299: The Sand Sculpture Players and the Battle of Dorun Lake City (6200)_4
Cao Xing coughed twice, then pretended to speak deeply, “Everyone, I just saw your conversation, and many of you want to go to Dorun Lake City to join the battle.”
“But before that, I need to remind you.”
“You want to take a risk on the battlefield; that’s correct. You might just strike it rich overnight and obtain a massive amount of resources.”
“But you should know that opportunity and danger coexist.”
“On such a large battlefield, a moment of carelessness could cost you your life.”
“And this time, things might not be as simple as they seem.”
“After all, even the Ice Crystal Kingdom’s army didn’t launch an attack immediately, indicating that the enemy’s strength is far from as weak as it appears.”
“I think, before going, you should seriously consider whether your power can ensure survival on this kind of battlefield.”
“After all, most of you here, I believe, have families, so you should think about your loved ones.”
Upon hearing this, the survivors were slightly stunned.
Then many began to ponder.
If an ordinary person were to advise them, they might consider them ill-intentioned, thinking they just didn’t want them to gain too many resources.
But who was this? This was none other than Cao Xing, the big shot.
As the number one person in Area 17, no one would think he was that kind of person.
So, the survivors began to think.
And thinking about it, they indeed noticed something amiss.
After all, as Cao Xing said, if it were a favorable situation, why did the Ice Crystal Kingdom’s army wait so long?
Why did they need to gather those rangers, mercenaries, and even survivors?
The current behavior of the Light Church could be said to have given the Ice Crystal Kingdom a slap, then stomped on their face.
It must be understood that near the Ice Crystal Kingdom, there were also several neighboring kingdoms.
A giant city being slaughtered, such a thing couldn’t be hidden.
Basically, all the nearby kingdoms knew of this event.
So, if they couldn’t quickly reclaim Dorun Lake City, it would become a laughingstock for neighboring countries.
Under normal circumstances, the Kingdom Army would have launched an attack the moment they arrived, to prove their strength and wash away their shame.
However, now, the situation seemed particularly odd.
Many people were blinded by the Honor Points reward, thinking that following the Kingdom Soldiers was equivalent to picking up money and experience on the side.
Now, with Cao Xing’s reminder, they realized things might not be so simple.
“Damn… Cao Xing makes sense! Analyzing it like this, it looks like the Ice Crystal Kingdom is just gathering cannon fodder to die!”
“Indeed, is there something in that city that’s keeping them wary?”
“Damn! I’m not going; I knew there’s no such thing as a free lunch.”
“I’m not participating either; it’s hard for me to get a Construction Week to develop. I don’t want to lose my life so quickly.”
“You all don’t go, I will. After all, I have no family, nothing holding me back. If I succeed this time, I’ll soar to great heights!”
“I’m going too, damn it. I’ll risk it; otherwise, life is unbearable.”
…
In the chat channel, everyone’s reactions were different.
Many gave up the idea of heading to Dorun Lake City.
But a portion felt they should seize this chance and didn’t heed Cao Xing’s warning.
Some even thought Cao Xing was meddling in their business.
After all, the fewer people heading to Dorun Lake City, the weaker the survivors’ power would be, and they wouldn’t gain anything on the battlefield.
Cao Xing, of course, knew this would be the result.
He wasn’t genuinely advising these survivors; he was just mentioning it casually.
For Cao Xing, these people were a sustainable crop.
They were an important way for him to quickly obtain resources.
Compared to the natives, Cao Xing preferred more survivors to stay alive.
At this moment, Cao Xing pretended to sigh, saying, “I know some people will definitely still go.”
“However, before heading to the Dorun Lake City battlefield, I suggest you bring some life-saving items.”
“Recently, our territory produced with all its might, exhausting the resources available, and created over two thousand bottles of Life Secret Medicine…”
