Chapter 55

【That's right, maybe we'll be the ones to take down this S-level light pillar!】

The few lords on the front line were all very excited.

They had also worried before whether they would anger Chen Ping.

But judging from the current situation, Chen Ping couldn't even protect himself, let alone care about them.

And even if Chen Ping wanted to deal with them, the few lords of the alliance had the confidence to resist.

Everything was because the performance gap between the two sides under the gargoyles' pounce was too large.

At this time, the lords who stayed behind to guard the territory were also very envious.

They didn't expect to miss such a scene of being in the limelight.

If they really could suppress Chen Ping and get the reward of the S-level light pillar this time, it would be a big benefit for the alliance.

In the current Eastern District, everyone implicitly followed Chen Ping's lead, especially those commoner lords.

This made them very passive; major family lords wanted to develop, but they couldn't do without these commoner lords who were willing to be cattle and horses.

As long as they could frustrate Chen Ping this time, they could immediately stand on equal footing with Chen Ping.

The deterrent brought by being first on the Golden List would be offset to the greatest extent.

"Everyone, put in more effort! Prioritize attacking those stone tablets!"

A lord raised his sword high and issued an attack order to the coalition army.

Everyone was one in a hundred selected from the Holy Academy and wouldn't fail to distinguish battle details.

A group of archers set up an arrow formation in the rear and began to suppress the gargoyles remotely.

These gargoyles were very powerful; one-on-one, the alliance's soldiers were no match at all.

But there were enough alliance lords; under the blessing of multiple talents, they actually multiplied their strength several times.

On the other side, Chen Ping had also been observing the situation of the alliance.

Chen Ping was not surprised that the combat power of the alliance soldiers was so outstanding.

In fact, this was the power that should be possessed after human lords united.

When confronting powerful foreign enemies, human lords were all united, and one plus one was always greater than two.

He would inevitably have to take this path in the end.

He didn't do it now because he still wanted to examine the character of these lords in the Eastern District.

What he wanted was a batch of loyal allies, not a group of self-righteous separatists.

As for his army, it seemed to be surrounded by gargoyles.

But the shield guards' powerful defensive ability ensured their safety, and they were unscathed at this time.

So after observing the alliance side, Chen Ping shifted his attention to the Stone Tablet General.

This was the biggest obstacle to the S-level light pillar.

At this time, because the alliance side's momentum was great, the Stone Tablet General also shifted its attention to the other side.

The reason Chen Ping changed his previous attitude of quick victory was because he sensed something wrong.

With his knowledge of mysticism, his so-called sixth sense was also quite keen.

"Milan, prepare for a surprise attack."

"Yes, my lord."

Milan tapped her shield with her long spear, her ice-beauty face showing no fear.

67: Crisis upon crisis, layered arrival

To measure whether a power is powerful, look at whether this power has given birth to a god.

Mysticism was one of the knowledge Chen Ping carried out from the Hall of Knowledge.

As for the gods of mysticism, he had also seen one of them, the Ancestor of Mystery.

Mysticism represents the supernatural, represents the unknown.

Almost 100% of people who study mysticism would choose to awaken a skill.

Sixth sense.

Even if this skill is upgraded to level ten, the sensing probability for corresponding matters is only 10%.

It can be said to be a metaphysical skill, but this does not prevent it from being widely popular.

After all, if the sixth sense really comes true, what it saves in minutes is a life.

As for Chen Ping, he had received the blessing of the Ancestor of Mystery.

Although the role of the Seal of Mystery was to make him immune to the influence of calculation and divination skills.

But knowledge can be understood by analogy.

Through the study of the blessing of the Ancestor of Mystery, Chen Ping inversely deduced a part of the high-level knowledge of mysticism.

This was also thanks to his Heaven Rewards Diligence talent; otherwise, he might not have been able to get results even if he vomited blood.

So Chen Ping's sixth sense sensing probability was as high as 20%.

After the alliance lords and other people who discovered the valley entered, the warning signs in Chen Ping's heart were unusually sensitive.

It was as if an activated radar had detected some dangerous signal source.

So he changed his order immediately, having the shield guards contract their formation and defend nearby.

This, in the eyes of others, naturally became a situation where Chen Ping was besieged.

At this time, the discussion topic of the entire Eastern District public channel was revolving around what happened in the valley.

After all, this was the first S-level light pillar discovered.

At the same time, one of the two participating sides was first on the Golden List, the hope of the commoners.

The other was a family alliance, a group of old-school forces holding together.

Because of Chen Ping's temporary contraction, it led to a large number of people looking down on him at this time.

【I said it long ago, commoners are commoners, with insufficient foundation; what's the use of forcibly taking first place?】

【You guys have many people and are powerful, so you're proud? Shouldn't the area be divided according to each person's military strength?】

【Retard, opportunity is in front, who's going to be fair with you?】

【Hmph, he is first on the Golden List, so he should have the treatment of being first on the Golden List.】

【We admit we are not as good as him, so what's the problem with dividing the area equally? Is there a problem? Hahaha!】

【Chen Ping, come on! Everyone who is close, hurry up and help Chen Ping.】

【I would like to help, but with these dense gargoyles, I can't get in at all.】

【Chen Ping didn't ask for help either; why bother to stick a hot face to a cold butt? Let's wait until he speaks.】

【It's broken, more stone tablets have been summoned!】

Because the public channel canceled the restrictions, messages were refreshing very fast.

Even those who were not nearby were very clear about the changes in the entire battle situation.

The alliance side's army had already killed their way into the valley, less than one hundred meters away from the Stone Tablet General.

All the heroic souls of the alliance side were gathering strength.

Preparing to join forces to give the opponent a heavy blow and strive to take the initial advantage.

There were even people who intentionally or unintentionally attracted gargoyles to Chen Ping's side.

This scene was naturally seen clearly by the lords watching from afar, and there was immediate condemnation on the public channel.

However, in order to ensure the result, the alliance side couldn't care about these anymore.

【Despicable and shameless, actually still luring monsters over.】

【Hmph, he is first on the Golden List, so the capable should do more work.】

【After taking down the light pillar, we will allocate enough credit to Chen Ping.】

【Sounds good, who knows if it will be like that after the fight.】

【If what you guys are saying about the battle situation is true, even if there is an allocation, it's useless; Chen Ping's loss this time is estimated to be heavy.】

Many people were worried.

After all, there were too many gargoyles; even if Chen Ping could hold on in the end, his army was estimated to be almost exhausted.

Either return to the territory for replenishment and recovery, or continue to take risks.

But with the attitude of the alliance side.

If Chen Ping suffered heavy losses and still insisted on being outside, it was really hard to say whether he would be plotted against.

After all, wouldn't it be better to take down a commoner lord who was first on the Golden List and bring everything in the Eastern District back to the right track?
