Chapter 527: Lao Da's Wealth

~7 min read 1,205 words

What if Zhinü calls out an unfamiliar name, what if Dong Da Qu's highest rank is only seventh?

Although the odds are slim, the World Channel is silent at this moment, as quiet as an uninhabited void.

Everyone is waiting.

Waiting for Zhinü to say that line: "Finally, the first place that everyone's eyes are on, the truly deserving strongest power——"

【First place, Black Feather (Dong Da Qu), leader: Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji.】

Zhinü's voice fell.

The World Channel stayed silent for a full three seconds, then——

The Dong Da Qu channel exploded first.

Ahhhhhhh——!

Black Feather! It's Black Feather! It's our Dong Da Qu's Black Feather!

Long live Wuya Lao Da! Long live Black Feather!

Friends of the Great Wall Guardians, don't cry! We Dong Da Qu have first place!

Wuuuuuu—I knew it! I knew it! Wu Ya is the strongest! Black Feather is the strongest!

Who just said Dong Da Qu's highest is only seventh? Come out and get hit!

Black Feather is awesome!!!

From sub-zone to whole server, Black Feather has never let us down!

Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji! Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji! Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji!

I'm truly convinced, my tears are flowing—so what, it's got nothing to do with me?!

So what! Exactly so! I'm from Dong Da Qu, so I can hold my chin high and look down on the other three major zones!

……

Inside Cheng Shuili's office.

The atmosphere here also became extremely tense for a moment; even though reason clearly knew first place wouldn't belong to anyone else, emotions still remained uncontrollably suspended in midair.

Until that name truly appeared.

Bang——!

Wan Yi's teacup in her hand dropped straight to the floor, tea splashing everywhere, yet she was utterly unaware, merely staring blankly at the finally filled list, at the two shining golden characters at the top.

Black Feather.

"We are……" Ailin's voice trembled a little, "Are we first?"

"Yes." The guide nodded, his wrinkled face beaming with joy: "We are first."

This one was relatively calm, while Xinxue and Jiang Tang sitting together had already happily embraced each other.

"Ahhhhh Jiang Tang! We are first! We are first!"

Xinxue grabbed Jiang Tang's shoulders and shook hard, her hair swinging like a rattle drum.

Jiang Tang was shaken by her to wobble left and right, the smile on her face impossible to hold back: "Don't shake, don't shake…… shake me any more and I'll faint!"

"No way! We must shake! Not shaking—would that be worthy of this first place?"

"Then you shake gently, ahahahaha, forget it, go ahead and shake!"

The two ended up in a tussle, nearly falling off their chairs.

Guanghui and Chen Qing Shan were also not calm, standing up and walking several circles in the room; if not for their expressions and clenched fists, who would think they were acting from joy?

Cheng Shuili lightly supported her forehead, yet her face also bore a hint of helpless smile.

She quietly watched these people make a fuss for a while before finally speaking: "Alright, alright, didn't you hear Zhinü say? There's also an individual ranking. The power ranking at least had some foreshadowing, but this individual ranking truly has no information at all."

"Individual ranking?" Xinxue's eyes lit up again, "Then Lao Da, you're definitely first!"

"Need to say more?" Jiang Tang immediately chimed in, "The power ranking is already first—if the individual ranking isn't Lao Da first, who would be?"

"Hasn't the individual ranking always been based on just two things—mileage driven and wealth value…?" Guanghui pondered a moment, then suddenly looked up and said, "Lao Da, should we, at the fastest speed, consolidate our resources and put them all under your name?"

Bringing up the matter, the atmosphere in the room turned solemn.

Guanghui saw no one speaking, then continued: "This method isn't really a secret either. Zhanlang previously told me that they've been using this method for the major zone rankings."

"Then this time's ranking, wouldn't all those factions have to consolidate their supplies into one person's hands? That's completely unfair."

Xinxue frowned; with the ranking about to be announced, Black Feather is currently trying to consolidate resources on the fly—surely there's no time.

Several people's gazes involuntarily turned to Cheng Shuili, after all, ultimately who decides what to do—she is the one who can decide.

Cheng Shuili certainly knew this method as well; the reason she hasn't carried it out isn't anything special.

Besides finding it troublesome, it's just because she has absolute confidence.

Even without consolidating resources, she has an absolute advantage on the wealth ranking.

There's no other reason—just the income from the safe zone alone leaves other players and factions far behind in the dust!

Cheng Shuili had just thought about this for a moment when Xinxue grew anxious and stamped her feet: "Lao Da, say something! Right now consolidation is still possible—I'll have everyone transfer their supplies to you as gifts within a few minutes, definitely in time!"

Xinxue was truly anxious and angry; she not only got worked up, she also glared fiercely at Guanghui.

What Guanghui said was correct; although this method isn't really a secret, it has never been spread in the regional channel.

Furthermore, Xinxue's daily work keeps her busy, so she doesn't really pay attention to the rankings.

So… this method is something Xinxue only just learned.

Her glaring at Guanghui means nothing else—she's just blaming him!

Since Zhanlang previously brought this up with Guanghui, this matter should have been announced to everyone beforehand; saying it now is nothing but hindsight.

"No need." Cheng Shuili's voice was gentle, the corners of her mouth smiling as she soothed Xinxue's emotions.

Cheng Shuili leaned back in her chair, her fingers still lightly gripping the armrest, her posture exactly the same as before the power ranking was announced: "Too late, also unnecessary. Moreover, even if there were time, resources would easily get mixed up, making future handling a hassle."

But— Xinxue wanted to say something more, but upon meeting Cheng Shuili's confident gaze, she swallowed her words again in silence.

She didn't say anything anymore, because she believed Lao Da.

But Guanghui really went too far with this…… Xinxue thought, and gave Guanghui a fierce glare.

Guanghui also felt guilty, lowered their head and touched their nose, not knowing what expression to show.

Cheng Shuili took it all in, her gaze sweeping between Xinxue and Guanghui, then spoke confidently: "Trust in my strength as your Lao Da—no one in this world is wealthier than me. Even if they gather the resources of a faction, it might not surpass me!"

Cheng Shuili's words were even somewhat arrogant, but everyone present knew she truly had that strength.

Xinxue thought of the triple ticket revenue from those two days of the flood, and also thought of the batches of goods she had resold.

Yes, Lao Da's wealth fundamentally doesn't need to be doubted.

The Weaver Girl's voice was silent for only five minutes, then it rang again in every survivor's ears.

Players, you've been waiting a long time!

The Weaver Girl's voice carried a hint of mischievous amusement, as if she were enjoying the suspense created by that five-minute silence just now.
