Chapter 2187: Back-to-Back Development
Xiao Feng was quite confident: "No problem, you can safely make contact, Langli Bailong, don't attack—I'll send a message to Zichen."
"Okay, great god!" Langli Bailong replied.
Xiao Feng was still on the road, opened his friend list and sent a message to Han Zichen: "Are you guys near the Peaceful Plain now?"
Han Zichen quickly replied: "Yes, fellow Daoist, we're currently split into three teams, planning to first secure our footing… wait, we seem to have encountered something?"
At that moment, she obviously also received the news of discovering the Blue Star 8 War Zone team.
Xiao Feng: "Yeah, we met. Our bases aren't far apart, we can cooperate and develop back-to-back."
"This… might not be good?" Han Zichen felt a bit worried.
If it were just the two of them, not to mention developing back-to-back, even sticking together would be fine.
But this is a super-large collective activity on the scale of 100 million people; it's impossible for everyone to obey.
If they accidentally start fighting, wouldn't it be…
"Where is your main base on the map?" Xiao Feng asked her.
Han Zichen hesitated a moment, then replied: "It's in the Godburial Ancient City beside the Peaceful Plain."
Xiao Feng checked the map, then said: "We're 200,000 kilometers apart; this central area has few resources, we can quickly clear it out cleanly, and I've scanned with my Divine Sense—basically no enemies. You take root in the Godburial Ancient City, expand east and south; I'll take root in the Qingcheng Fertile Plains basin region, develop west and north. With our two regions' strength, we can easily sweep aside most enemies. If we encounter large numbers of enemies, we can also provide mutual support."
Han Zichen looked at her map.
She hadn't
killed a venerable, so her known map isn't as rich as Xiao Feng's.
Upon hearing that, she thought for a moment and replied: "Okay, then we won't explore the west; you handle that."
"Yeah, I'll also call back the east and south teams and move them toward the northeast and southwest."
The two commanders immediately agreed.
Soon, Xiao Feng told all the chairmen the result of his discussion with Han Zichen.
Zhandao: "Since that's the case, our forces can be slightly more concentrated—we no longer need to scout the 180-degree angle, and efficiency in a single direction increases considerably."
Shen Di: "But… we'll also lose the detection opportunities in the southeast and south."
As a high-ranking leader of the war zone, one must prioritize the war zone's interests; if the Kyushu War Zone were to backstab the Blue Star 8 War Zone later, this distance would be very dangerous.
Xiao Feng knew Shen Di's worry and laughed: "With me holding down the main base, Elder Brother Shen Di can put his mind at ease. The ones to worry are the Kyushu War Zone—they'll surely have someone doubting Zichen, fearing I'll sweep through strongly and attack their base."
This… also seems right.
Shen Di and those who were hesitant, upon hearing this, all felt it made some sense.
Xiao Feng's individual strength, although possibly unable to be used to dismantle warehouses,
but as long as he sweeps all the enemies, dismantling warehouses is just a matter of time.
Therefore, the Kyushu War Zone knowing the Blue Star 8 War Zone is nearby will certainly have some people worried and cautious, fearing a sneak attack.
This point, Han Zichen will have to oversee.
Xiao Feng's sword never cuts his own people; proposing mutual back-to-back reliance is purely for the shared benefit of both sides.
The dissent in the group quickly disappeared; regarding Xiao Feng's strength
, everyone has sufficient confidence.
On the other hand, Han Zichen was somewhat troubled.
As Xiao Feng expected, upon learning that the Blue Star 8 tiger lay 200,000 li away, everyone inside the Kyushu War Zone became very worried.
Although everyone is allied outside, here there's no such thing as alliance; anyone not from our zone is marked red, and even formerly friendly friends could turn into enemies.
If we only consider average player strength, they actually aren't afraid of the Blue Star 8 War Zone.
But with Xiao Feng that monster present, the situation is different.
Facing these objections, Han Zichen could only say: "Daoist Xiao Feng has already become an immortal, came to the Kyushu World and met many of us. I trust his character, and as a proper immortal, how could he be as vile as you imagine?"
But…
Some gang leaders still held skeptical attitudes.
Han Zichen directly snapped: "This is my decision; whoever thinks there's a problem can lead their troops to set up another base elsewhere—I won't stop them!"
Those doubtful voices temporarily disappeared.
However, it's not that they simply trusted the Blue Star 8 War Zone; rather, Han Zichen's prestige is high, and no one wants to upset her.
However, the seed of doubt remains; until the very last moment, they will always have reservations.
Han Zichen also knew what everyone was thinking, and told Xiao Feng about her situation.
Xiao Feng heard her slightly aggrieved tone and soothed: "Don't worry, after this event they'll trust you more and also revere me more. I'll share some map info with you—go gather resources first, and meanwhile clear out the enemies in your direction."
Speaking, he then passed on his known southeastern map.
He shared the information with her.
After receiving it, Han Zichen's mood improved considerably, and she immediately led her troops into action.
On the Blue Star side, Langli Bailong's team and over ten D-series guilds began shifting to move north.
Also, the guilds on the southern side all followed Xiao Feng's orders to adjust.
As the event time passed, unnoticed another half hour went by.
During this period, several guilds discovered small-scale enemies and casually eliminated them.
A million-strong army sounds exaggerated, but for supreme god-level players, whose skill ranges span kilometers to tens of thousands of meters, slaughtering them is actually quite simple.
As long as there's a clear disparity in strength between the two sides, battles basically end within half an hour to an hour.
If it's faster, like the earlier Prosperity Society Guild being attacked from front and back, they barely lasted three minutes.
Not long after the event started, the gains from eliminating enemies are minuscule—basically no resources can be seized.
As time passed, all chairmen and regional leaders also realized that map exploration and resource gathering are the first-stage competition; if it evolves into the later stage, the ultimate focus remains on fighting.
Strong zones plunder weak ones, weak zones hide—this is the trend!
So the weak zones are now searching for hidden locations to prepare warehouses that others can't find, and meanwhile quickly mining the resources they can obtain, and hurry to store them.
And for a strong war zone like the Blue Star No. 8 War Zone, all that needs to be done is to scout out the camps of other war zones within reachable range, wait until they have mined enough, then launch a wave to seize them.
Of course, in the early stage we also need to mine resources, otherwise we can't make equipment like plunder cannon carts,
Killing all the enemies but being unable to demolish the warehouse and take away the resources is also quite embarrassing.
In battle after battle, the blueprints seized by the Blue Star No. 8 War Zone gradually increased, and they were about to piece together a complete equipment blueprint.
And at this time, Xiao Feng had also reached the northern 'Hidden Peak Valley'.
