Chapter 821: Death Battle 7

~8 min read 1,484 words

The specific plan is as just said.

First, quickly take care of the Neutral Alliance and seize the flag.

Finally, concentrate forces and attack the Huaxia War Zone.

Inside the temporary command room of the European War Alliance, many war zone representatives listened silently to Andre's command.

But it's different from the previous harmonious scene.

It is now the third day of the Death Battle; besides the North America War Zone, which confiscated flags from several small war zones under the pretense of protecting the flag, earning many honor points.

Their earnings are almost zero.

By this point, everyone realized they might have made a mistake.

Only by capturing flags can one earn honor points, which inevitably means some war zones will suffer losses.

But the pirate ship has already set sail; if they withdraw now, their only fate is to be surrounded and killed.

After a moment, an East German Awakened One, holding a cigarette, coldly retorted:

"We already know the locations of the Neutral Alliance and the Huaxia War Zone; why not prioritize attacking the Huaxia War Zone?"

There's meaning behind the words.

It seems Andre's arrangement is not wrong; prioritizing the biggest threat, the Neutral Alliance, to seize the most flags is the optimal solution.

Unfortunately, all war zone representatives are well aware.

The seized flags will certainly not be distributed to them.

On the contrary, besieging the Huaxia War Zone would at least earn some extra kill honor.

Moreover, isn't the Neutral Alliance also their "retreat"? After destroying the Neutral Alliance, who could counterbalance North America?

The meeting's chairperson, Andre, looked with a gentle expression at the questioning man:

"I know what you're worried about."

"Please trust us; since the agreement has been settled, when the final rewards are calculated, you will receive what you deserve, and we will not be stingy."

"If you still have doubts, I can offer a suggestion."

"What suggestion?!"

Hearing the question, Andre chuckled, completely unbothered by everyone's grim faces:

"Find Lin An and kill him!"

"Lin An has enough points."

"He alone can 'raise' hundreds of third-rank individuals!"

"You could think differently: if so many points were distributed to you all, after boosting your strength, what's essentially the difference from lowering the difficulty of the calamity?"

"It would even be more cost-effective."

His expression turned serious; Andre withdrew his smile and pointed a single finger at the coordinates of the Huaxia War Zone on the sand table:

"As long as Lin An dares to appear, we will surround and kill him with all our strength!"

"Moreover, I can promise that the North America War Zone will not participate in point distribution!"

The plan is also what everyone had already thought of.

The difference is that Andre this time gave a promise to yield points.

They whispered among themselves, their thoughts shifting.

Standing at the periphery of the meeting, a representative of some small war zone, his voice muffled, suddenly asked:

"If you don't participate in the distribution, that's about right."

"But what about Lin An? We haven't even seen his shadow yet."

"If he doesn't come, are you planning to renege on our rewards?"

His words were blunt; everyone glanced somewhat surprised at the burly man clad in beast‑hide armor.

His words were rough but sound; he actually voiced what they were thinking.

After hearing, Andre's expression remained unchanged, and he was not angry:

"Lin An will surely come!"

He spoke decisively.

"He lacks many points; without surprise, he should have reached a certain milestone, triggering the system reward mission."

To gain everyone's trust, Andre simply unfolded his own mission information while speaking:

"***Mission reward: S-rank skill exchange permit."

"Requirement: **** points."

The key information was all blocked.

Everyone instinctively looked, and a flash of shock crossed their eyes as they realized something.

"With more points, can the skill exchange option be triggered?!"

"No wonder Lin An has been trying to steal our points!"

Seeing the large S‑rank symbol on the panel, everyone's eyes burned with fervor, even tinged with jealousy.

Seeing this, Andre curled the corner of his mouth into a faint smile and spoke softly:

"No need for me to explain further; I believe you've all thought of it as well."

"So you can imagine... Lin An clearly already has so many points, yet he keeps participating in the trials nonstop."

"What level of skill do you think he wants to exchange?!"

"SS? Or even higher, surpassing our imagination—SSS?!"

Like a heavy bomb dropped into water, at this point no one will doubt whether Lin An will appear in the Death Battle.

Lin An, suspected to need seven or eight thousand points to exchange for a skill—just how formidable would that be!

Even, many people instantly wondered whether Lin An had exchanged many skills in the first trial, which would explain his formidable combat strength.

Just like a snowball... this way, Lin An's various strange abilities can be explained.

Where is he now!!

Emotions ran high; the East Germany war zone representative, no longer languid, crushed the cigarette in hand and glared at Andre.

If we say that the previous Lin An merely represented a large number of points.

Then now...

Moving treasure trove... this might be the highest "reward" since the Apocalypse.

If we alone snatched Lin An's points, wouldn't that mean we could also trigger skill exchange?

Undercurrents surged; after Andre said this, many war zones even suddenly felt.

The reward for natural disaster mitigation may not be as important as killing Lin An!

After all, even if our war zone's populace suffers, being strong... is not impossible...

Andre observed the crowd's emotions without changing expression.

Good, the attention of all present representatives was completely drawn to Lin An.

According to our deduction, Lin An should act alone, or with that burly man, hiding in the subsequent few levels.

If I were him, I would definitely wait for the melee, fish in troubled waters, and sneak attack a small war zone garrison.

His points should be almost enough, so he certainly won't take huge risks to expose himself early.

And the plan to attack the Neutral Alliance is essentially also to lure Lin An into action.

Otherwise, given his survival ability and spatial skills, it would be too difficult for us to capture him...

Andre let out a light laugh; he had already rehearsed over a hundred plans, especially the contact process of the will trial.

This gives him absolute confidence, able to predict Lin An's choice.

Facing Lin An,

A hiding mouse, then we use bait to attract him...

Alarm!!!

Alarm!!!

He was speaking halfway when he was instantly interrupted.

Sharp alarm sounds rang out; that was the agreed-upon alarm that would be issued when the alliance war zone suffered a devastating blow.

Red alarm light bathed the meeting room in red.

Red light flashing, dozens of Awakened Ones assigned to monitor the battlefield situation looked at the war zone markers on the map as if they had seen a ghost.

One disappearing could be understood as a mistake, but a whole...

Astonished.

On the main seat, Andre suddenly stood up, his surging mental power quickly linking to the monitoring center's screen.

In his pupils, a silver-white light flashed.

Only seen on the map, the red dots of the outer war zones suddenly disappeared in a patch.

Alarm! Unknown detected, supersonic flying object breached defense point 17!

Alarm! Detected unknown, supersonic flying object breached defense point 16!

Alarm! Detected unknown, supersonic....

Like being invaded by a virus, in the blink of an eye, the red dot representing an entire war zone suddenly disappeared consecutively; that movement trajectory actually resembled a black sword piercing the core.

What happened!!

After coming to their senses, all war zone representatives stared in shock at the real-time strategic map.

3 seconds, a red dot disappears; 10 seconds, the next linked one disappears.

Such exaggerated destruction speed simply exceeds their comprehension.

Even if the outer war zones had been stripped of personnel, and the stationed Awakened Ones were weak, there were at least hundreds!

If the flag is not captured, the red dot will not disappear.

What on earth happened, that could cause the flags, which the major war zones regard as life, to be seized one after another in a short time?

Like thinking of some terrible fact, Kim Jae-eun, who attended the meeting alone, turned pale and hastily contacted the Awakened Ones of his own war zone.

No one responded.

After a moment, his body swayed, his hands trembling.

Korea war zone, all gone??

His voice full of fear and disbelief.

Just as he was reminded, the representatives of the war zones whose red dots similarly disappeared also hastily contacted their own people.

1 second later.

A war zone representative's eyes showed dead ash, he plopped down on the ground.

Above his head, the red light blazed, like an omen before disaster strikes.
