1561 The danger behind the benefits (1)
A big battle was about to happen, and the atmosphere in Harvest City was very tense, especially the residents of the city. If there was nothing important, they would definitely not go out.
When the city gate caught fire, the fish in the moat would be affected. The war between the trial-takers and the native gods caused these ordinary people to suffer in fear every day.
The loucheng cultivators in the sacred dragon battle zone also looked solemn. After all, there was a big gap between the strength of the enemy and their own side. Even if the loucheng cultivators were fierce and brave, they could not fight against ten people at once.
If the enemy really attacked them on a large scale, the only thing that awaited them was perhaps death on the battlefield and the return of their souls to their homeland!
Taylor and the others were very excited. To these spiritual emperors who had invaded more than one plane and killed countless creatures, a 100000 cultivators formation was just a small scene. They were used to even bigger scenes.
Even if they couldn’t teleport to the city like they did in the past, they were still fearless. Instead, they hoped that the divine warriors would come soon so that they could get points like a snowball.
When the number of cultivators under them exceeded ten thousand, they would Dare to Lead their own cultivators to attack cities even without an Alliance!
Although the losses of the cultivators in loucheng city would also make them feel heartache, compared to the return, these losses were completely acceptable.
The kind did not command troops. They had the demeanor of decision-makers and knew how to make choices.
However, Tang Zhen was different. He was not as optimistic as Taylor and the others. He would not sacrifice his subordinates in exchange for benefits.
The other party had come prepared this time, and both sides were bound to have a head-on battle. God knew how many cultivators in loucheng would die in battle.
Even if he could collect souls and let them return to their homeland to rebuild their bodies, it would still take a long time for him to recover his cultivation. If anything happened during this time, he might end up with his soul scattered.
Too much loss would not only be unbearable for the battle zone, but it would also lead to the loss of points. Naturally, it was best to avoid it as much as possible.
Therefore, he had been thinking about finding a reasonable way to avoid casualties. After thinking about it, the way to solve the problem still fell on the trial-takers.
When he thought of this, Tang Zhen opened the cornerstone platform and posted a message.
[ the Lord of the Holy Dragon War zone, Tang Zhen, has now taken control of the Manas Empire’s Harvest City. He has also prepared several trial-takers to cooperate with each other to fight against 100000 divine warriors and subsequent enemies. If any trial-takers are interested in participating in this war, please arrive at Harvest City within one day. ]
It was just a short sentence, but it cost him 100 million points, which was equivalent to the reward for killing a level Seven divine warrior.
However, these points were well spent. When the news was released, the participants would see it immediately. If they really wanted to participate, with the speed of a spiritual Emperor, they could arrive in one day even if they were in the corner of the sky!
Tang Zhen was prepared to use these Battle Points to break the stalemate. As long as the enemies attacking Harvest City were eliminated, they could then chase after the enemy and attack the capital of the Manas Empire.
As time passed, the number of cultivators summoned would increase. When the trial-takers were united, no country in the world would be able to resist this turbulent torrent.
This was also a problem that Tang Zhen had just thought of. Although this trial was to test the strength of the residents in the city, it did not mean that they had to fight on their own. Otherwise, if they were to encounter a strong enemy like the Manas Empire, they would probably be stuck in a quagmire and unable to extricate themselves.
Since the rules of the trial allowed it, then what was wrong with working together to benefit each other?
After releasing the news, Tang Zhen found Taylor and the others and told them about the matter.
If his guess was correct, Taylor and the other trial-takers should have seen the news. The purpose of his actions was just to express his attitude of cooperation.
As for how sincere this cooperation was, everyone probably knew it in their hearts.
Tang Zhen did not discuss with them before releasing the information. This was to avoid useless arguments. With the greed of these trial-takers, they would definitely not be willing to give away the fat meat that was already in their mouths.
Even if he couldn’t swallow it, he didn’t want to let others have it.
Therefore, Tang Zhen acted first and reported later. Regardless of whether you agree or not, this matter has already become a foregone conclusion. So what if you are unwilling in your heart?
Tang Zhen had said before that if he was dissatisfied with something, he could withdraw at any time in order to deal with such a situation.
The most important point was that Tang Zhen had taken over Harvest City by himself. Taylor and the others had only played a supporting role, and they had come uninvited to take advantage of the situation.
Even though they had formed a so-called Alliance, it was only a form. If Tang Zhen insisted on doing something, it was useless even if they wanted to object.
As expected, when they saw Tyler and the others again, their expressions were a little unnatural.
“I’m sure you’ve all seen the message posted by this Tang. What are your thoughts?”
Since he had already confirmed that Taylor and the others had seen the information, there was no need for Tang Zhen to repeat it. Instead, he directly asked a question.
“Sir Tang Zhen, I don’t understand. Why would you give away the benefits that you’ve already obtained?”
If Tang Zhen had not mentioned this matter, the few trial-takers would not have opened their mouths to ask even if they felt depressed in their hearts. However, since he had taken the initiative to mention it, it would not be considered as offending them if they asked.
The one who spoke was a Yaksha-like cultivator with tentacles as thick as a thumb on his back. Tang Zhen knew that the other party’s building was located in a super swamp and could move freely in the mud like an eel.
you only see the immediate benefits, but you don’t see the hidden dangers and the long-term benefits.
Upon hearing Tang Zhen’s words, the few trial-takers revealed an expression of being all ears. They wanted to hear how Tang Zhen would explain.
“The number of enemies from the God of War temple has been confirmed. They are several times more than us, and we can’t rule out the possibility of more reinforcements. If the nearby sub-temples of the God of War turn out in full force, it is possible for them to double the number of enemies.”
we can’t decide the winner in a single battle against so many enemies. We can only wear them down slowly.
it seems like we’re the ones benefiting from this. As long as we have enough points, we can summon more residents of the city. But in fact, this is a self-destructive act.
it’s not easy to cultivate Lou Cheng’s cultivators, and there’s not an endless number of them. So even if we win in the end, we’ll have to pay a painful price.
“Once the war god temple is determined to fight with us, and they send millions of divine warriors, how many cultivators will they need to summon?”
“What will you do when you have no more loucheng cultivators to summon?”
Looking at Taylor and the others who were deep in thought, Tang Zhen sneered and said, the final result is that the enemy will kill all the remaining cultivators in loucheng, and we can only watch our points decrease until there’s nothing left!
“If that moment really comes, we won’t be able to participate in this trial anymore!”
The trial-taker who asked the question first gasped. If things really developed to that stage, they would be the ones who would be dumbfounded.
“What you said is only a possibility. I don’t think it’s possible for the war god Hall to do such a thing,”
Another trial-taker thought for a moment and said in an uncertain tone.
Tang Zhen coldly laughed when he heard this. He used a tone that did not carry a trace of emotion as he said,”It’s not impossible, but very possible. Our goal is to kill those native gods, and cultivators in Lou Cheng are our weapons.”
as long as the indigenous gods destroy our weapons, we will be helpless, and the price is just some insignificant believers.
“If it were you, would you miss such a good opportunity to give the enemy a chance to breathe?”
Taylor and the others nodded and found that Tang Zhen’s words made sense. Those native gods were afraid of the trial-takers and didn’t dare to show their faces. They could only rely on their divine warriors to fight against the trial-takers, and the cultivators in loucheng city could only watch from the sidelines because of the rules.
When the two sides fought in the air, they relied on the divine warriors and cultivators of Lou Cheng.
Now that one side had the opportunity to destroy the other’s weapon and completely remove the opponent’s qualification to participate, the God of War, anthéris, had no reason to miss this opportunity.
As for the casualties of the divine warriors, the indigenous gods would not care. Even if they all died, so what? at most, they would just develop a new batch!
After mulling over Tang Zhen’s words in their hearts, Taylor and the other participants nodded their heads at the same time, acknowledging his words.
“Then may I ask Sir Tang Zhen, what are the long term benefits you mentioned?”
Tang Zhen merely smiled faintly when he heard this, but he did not say anything.
The long-term benefits would naturally be to use the general trend to sweep the entire world. However, how to operate it would be a matter between Tang Zhen and his true allies.
The few ‘allies’ in front of him were not qualified to participate in this for the time being.
