Chapter 274: Bully Alliance, Internet Cafe Joint Punishment

Meng Yuan Chu Altar.

Qi Sheng has been monitoring the actions of the Earth-Will Bully in establishing the projection teleportation array at all times.

This action is essentially an expansion of the activity space for players in the newbie village, giving players multiple selectable combat zones.

It indirectly accelerates the players' development speed.

But the main purpose is for the Earth-Will Evil Spirit to reduce its own war pressure, distributing its pain through the projection teleportation array.

To avoid the Black Tide defense line being breached by the players' continuous fierce assaults during the waning crescent and last quarter moon phases.

This action was clearly the result of deep consideration by the Earth-Will Evil Spirit.

It also considered that players might become stronger, bringing more pressure upon itself.

The deeper layout behind this is to incorporate other nodes under war pressure from players into its own jurisdiction, establishing an alliance to jointly resist the players.

Secondly, it is also to open channels for external development.

Trapped beneath the Emperor's Tomb Mountain Range by players and the Insect Clan, it has no other channels to expand its territory and acquire resources except for horizontal development.

But with this mutual-aid alliance structure, it can participate in the expansion of other nodes by investing Black Tide energy, acquiring development dividends.

If this plan Zhen Neng Cheng Gong, the Earth-Will Evil Spirit will use itself as the core to construct an Evil Spirit Legion, with authority even superseding part of the Monarch's influence.

What Qi Sheng is curious about is, assuming the Monarch learns of the existence of such a Black Tide internal alliance, what reaction would it have?

He asked the Guide this question.

The Guide's answer was that every Evil Spirit Warrior in the Black Tide system has a potential thought stamp.

It is just that this thought stamp has disappeared on the Earth-Will Evil Spirit.

But it still exists on other Evil Spirits.

Theoretically, Evil Spirits at other nodes, and even the Monarch, would not suspect the Earth-Will Evil Spirit.

They would automatically direct the Earth-Will Evil Spirit's behavioral logic towards layouts benefiting the Black Tide as a whole.

If the internal alliance centered on the Earth-Will Evil Spirit develops smoothly, it would not only avoid punishment from the Monarch, but might even be seen as attempting to innovate and optimize the war system, and be rewarded.

Plus, with the Earth-Will Evil Spirit's identity as a graduate of the Abyss Trial, the innovations it implements have no possibility of being suppressed by the Monarch.

The only hidden danger is the projection teleportation array set up in the Emperor's Tomb Mountain Range area.

The Earth-Will Evil Spirit has already detected the potential risk of exposure in this regard, so it is still undergoing continuous optimization and upgrades.

To let Evil Spirit Warriors at other nodes know that the player legions come from the Emperor's Tomb Mountain Range area managed by the Earth-Will Evil Spirit, but the manner of their arrival is not its doing, and they cannot effectively stop it.

After understanding the details, Qi Sheng had higher expectations for the Earth-Will Evil Spirit.

Such a special Evil Spirit Warrior, even the Guide had never encountered before.

He is very curious about the unknown changes on the Earth-Will Evil Spirit, what future picture they will weave, and where they will direct its fate trajectory.

He even has a premonition that the Earth-Will Evil Spirit's future is likely to break free from the control of the Black Tide system.

Compared to other Evil Spirit Warriors, it is too free, even so free that Qi Sheng feels it is excessive.

It actually spawned the idea of "framing" other nodes, truly absurd.

As thoughts surged, Qi Sheng's gaze jumped to the "Covenant Alliance" section of the forum.

Recently, this section has been incredibly lively, constantly refreshing posts recruiting players.

【Second Brother seeks powerful players, 300-person warband, only players with Main Painful Painful Minghun 63+, any profession, private message to share attribute interface and resonance weapon effects, pass certification to join, strong commander, guarantee a satisfying grind for Shou Shou Jili.】

【Fifth Brother seeks powerful teammates, 500-person warband, commanded by a player famous on the Sinful Land leaderboard, strength absolutely guaranteed, those lacking Shou Shou Jili join quickly, tank-flow players get extra hunting revenue subsidies, if you think you have strength private message with screenshots, departure imminent.】

【Those with water navigation vehicles join, target Third Brother, no special strength requirements, Main Painful Painful Minghun 55+ is fine, tank-flow players can be 50+, 800-person professional team, led by a capable warlord, do not join if you won't follow orders.】

【Flower Sea Guild recruits powerful players, the future lies in mixing in the Fourth Brother's scenario, players with Main Painful Painful Minghun level 65+ can apply, receive real-world benefits after passing audit to join the guild, the Guild Master can even help solve your single status, tank-flow players can have requirements lowered slightly, everyone sign up quickly.】

The meddlesome forum players named the villain alliance established by the Earth-Will Bully: Bully Alliance.

They also imagined the scene of them swearing brotherhood, and ranked them according to the strength of the five Evil Spirit Warriors' personal abilities.

First Brother Earth-Will Bully, Second Brother Blood-Textured Bully, Third Brother Iron-Spine Bully, Fourth Brother Rotten-Heart Bully, Fifth Brother Ghost-Tooth Bully.

Among these, the Earth-Will Bully is an old acquaintance of the players, and the one least willing to engage in combat.

The weakest is undoubtedly the Ghost-Tooth Bully, which is currently the main target of player teams to conquer.

Especially the newly formed joint warbands are preparing to take the Ghost-Tooth Bully as their first target.

For new teams, this is a rare opportunity.

The God King leads the God Hall Guild, and several guilds within the joint warbands all grew up alongside the Earth-Will Bully.

They know each other very well.

But for new teams to challenge the Evil Tide in the Emperor's Tomb Mountain Range, there is no gradual growth process; they face the Earth-Will Bully with all capabilities maxed out right from the start.

This growth opportunity created by the Earth-Will Bully is one that ambitious guilds do not want to miss.

Just as players are actively preparing to challenge the Bully Alliance, the Earth-Will Bully at the Tian Yuan Domain node has also begun a new layout.

At this moment, on the platform of the Gao Ta in the Tian Yuan Domain, the Earth-Will Evil Spirit stands suspended in the air, communicating with Evil Spirit Warriors at other nodes through a mental connection.

What makes it feel slightly helpless is that these guys, having only come into contact with players for a short while, have all been led astray.

Recently, they have habitually started using player catchphrases, cursing with every word they speak.

At the tactical level, the first thing they learned was the "Taunt Tactic" it shared.

Through the connected mental network, the angry curses of Evil Spirit Warriors from other nodes, furious with rage, occasionally ring in its mind:

Ghost-Tooth: What the hell is "speed-running"? Laozi will slaughter you all today, let you speed-run the Spirit Hall, can tank-flow players hold up? I'll hold your lungs, all of you die!

Blood-Textured: You ignorant maggots still dare to challenge me? Go back to your mother's womb and retrain, Laozi playing with Evil Spirits using a keyboard is better than you, trash!

Beautiful language art constantly bursts forth amidst the collision of war confrontation.

The behavior of the Evil Spirit Warriors also made the participating players so angry they cursed loudly.

Except for a small number of veteran players from the Emperor's Tomb Mountain Range area who have been specially trained by the Bully, who do not easily lose their temper.

The result of the new guilds and the Evil Spirits trading insults was often that both sides lost their composure.

This was also the first time the Evil Spirit warriors, aside from Di Nian, experienced purely mental attacks in war.

No need for remote release of mental abilities; with just a mouth, they could deal extreme emotional damage.

By sharing visuals to observe the war's progression at other nodes, Di Nian Evil Spirit began a lesson, its voice frequently echoing across different nodes:

"Bing Xue Wen, try generating Disaster-type units in combat to execute a Disaster Backlash tactic. Remember, never be greedy. For initial training, set the life line at around 40%, then control a retreat to trigger the backlash. Start training with engagements in local areas."

"Gui Ya, though Death Calamity-type units are strong, you must learn to reasonably attempt unit combinations. Start with Apocalypse-type units. Bring out the full advantage of our Black Tide system's complete unit roster. Players are not other factions; relying solely on Death Calamity-type units, you will be exhausted before long."

"Fu Xin, try using the chest tactic I taught you. The players' greed for profit can become our means to expand our war advantage."

"Tie Ji, I am unfamiliar with underwater warfare, but I offer some reference suggestions regarding your unit combinations..."

Under Di Nian Evil Spirit's guidance, the war modes at the four nodes were continuously optimized.

Tactical success also made them trust Di Nian Evil Spirit even more.

This gradually established trust was precisely the result Di Nian Evil Spirit wanted to see.

At this moment, an idea even sprouted in its heart.

Could the Black Tide's interconnected node network combine the advantages of these few Evil Spirit warriors to form a joint command network?

In the future, Black Tide energy and units would interconnect, transmitting through the network nodes.

They could enter the battlefield of any one node at any time to provide support, forming an efficient war mutual-aid network.

They could even activate a joint command mode to leverage their respective strengths.

Having the idea, it immediately began simulating the feasibility of applying this mode in actual war, as well as a series of potential problems.

Two days later.

Di Nian Evil Spirit proposed its concept to the Evil Spirit warriors at the other four nodes.

Di Nian: Brothers, I have an idea. Can we strengthen our node docking network to form a joint command system, command operations together, and leverage our respective strengths?

Gui Ya: Commanding together? Won't that interfere with each other? Who do we listen to?

Di Nian: My idea is this. Gui Ya, you are best at using Death Calamity-type units; on the battlefield, you handle the output and fire suppression. Fu Xin, your Mad Tide-type assassin units are elusive; you are responsible for sniping high-threat targets of the player clans. Bing Xue Wen is skilled at using Apocalypse-type units; you handle battlefield cutting and frontal confrontation. Tie Ji handles battlefield support, generating units primarily of the Ruin type for all-around support. I will serve as the overall commander and control Disaster-type units to protect important rear-line combat units...

As Di Nian Evil Spirit explained, the Evil Spirit warriors at the other four nodes understood its idea.

The core of joint command has two points.

First, divide the war into different battlefield functions; each Evil Spirit is only responsible for the part they excel at.

Second, the Evil Eye's computing power sharing.

The vision of the five Evil Spirits is fully synchronized in war mode.

Player skills detected and analyzed, even combat habits, will be recorded by the five Evil Eyes in the shared intelligence database.

Next is dynamic computing power adjustment.

As the overall commander, Di Nian Evil Spirit will allocate computing power to the other four Evil Spirits based on battlefield changes, providing precise war support.

Finally, intelligent resource allocation; Black Tide energy flows according to battlefield needs.

For example, when deciding to assassinate a key target of the player clans, the Mad Tide-type units controlled by Fu Xin can receive additional Evil Eye computing power and Black Tide energy supply.

Di Nian Evil Spirit named this plan: War Network.

After learning the details of Di Nian Evil Spirit's plan, the four Evil Spirit warriors at the other nodes all expressed willingness to try.

This was also their first contact with a joint combat mode; they were all curious about the performance effect of this mode in actual combat.

Just as the Evil Eyes were laying out the new war mode.

The players were also studying the war styles of different Evil Spirits, wanting to formulate targeted combat strategies.

During this period, a combat mode proposed by a player on the forum sparked heated discussion.

The poster was Ye Lan, the tactical commander of the Starfall Guild.

The combat concept he proposed was very novel, named: Tidal Rotation Tactics.

This tactic overturned the traditional model represented by the God King; it was not constructed with the segmented team model of tank teams, support teams, archer teams, melee teams, etc.

The core of the Tidal Rotation Tactics is that all players in the team are free-style practitioners of both magic and martial arts.

They can output damage and also tank.

Every player can switch styles based on the battlefield situation.

There is no situation of being cut off from the backline.

For example, front-line players are both warriors and tanks, and can occasionally act as assassins; they can change roles at any time.

Back-line magic-type players are both supports and magic users, and can also change roles at any time based on the situation.

Turning the fixed segmented team model into a dynamic conversion mechanism.

This mode was indeed unusable in actual combat during the early development of the player camp, but now the number of Star Vein Slots is constantly growing, and the number of Painful Painful Minghun players can embed is increasing.

Taking three Painful Painful Minghun as a group to match a class template; nine Star Vein Slots can match three Liu Pai Wan Fa.

For Painful Painful Minghun level advancement, choose the most balanced growth ratio; all Painful Painful Minghun grow synchronously.

The advantage of this mode is obvious: every combat unit possesses the characteristics of integrated offense and defense, and mastery of both magic and martial arts. They can respond quickly to any type of Black Tide unit, avoiding the situation in traditional combat teams where certain units are countered, and there is no true output backline.

The feature is strong battlefield adaptability, high fault tolerance, the ability to change and adjust formations in real-time, and the capability to handle any form of emergency.

But the disadvantage is also obvious.

Although this system is comprehensive, it is mediocre; balancing multi-dimensional combat leads to none of the single aspects being outstanding.

Output is not as violent as the extreme-output Star Vein combinations; defense is not as solid as traditional tank-style players; support efficiency is not as high as pure support-style players... Under prolonged combat, the stamina pressure is also considerable.

Secondly, the learning cost is very high.

It requires every player in the team to master the playstyles of different schools, able to shift combat thinking after switching roles. Ordinary players wishing to master this need to devote a large amount of time to learning.

Regarding this war system, forum players held mixed opinions.

But the players who posted also elaborated on their views afterward, stating:

The strength of the Black Tide Legion lies in the free switching of all system troop types; no matter how you adjust the Wanjialiu Sect roles within your team, the opponent will always find a troop mode to counter you.

And the greatest advantage of the Tidal Rotation tactic lies in countering the Black Tide system by using its own "formlessness" to weaken the Black Tide's advantage of countering all systems.

That is to blur the battlefield roles of one's own combat units, disrupting the targeted combat mode of the Black Tide Evil Spirits.

While lowering one's own upper limit, it indirectly raises one's lower limit; it is a tactic specifically designed to counter the Black Tide's creation of war advantages.

The greatest feature of this tactic is using homogenization to counter specialization.

Traditional tactics require commanders to precisely seize opportunities in war to expand their own advantages, whereas the feature of Tidal Rotation is to keep the players in the war constantly at a passing grade of 60 points.

Essentially, it uses the mediocrity of everyone to drag the Black Tide's advantage of specialization down into the same mud pit to fight.

Although it cannot completely offset the Black Tide's advantages for now, and there are a series of shortcomings.

But in the future, as the number of player Star Pulse slots increases, these shortcomings will gradually be made up for, bringing comprehensive invincibility.

Regarding this tactic, forum players have different views.

Some players expressed agreement, feeling that this innovative tactic will surely have a place to be used in the future.

It may even become the mainstream combat plan for certain top teams in the future.

Other players expressed disdain, believing it is far less effective than traditional tactics and can bring out the advantages of every player.

The establishment of the Bully Alliance made more players start thinking about how to fight effectively.

Many novel ideas sprouted in this process, including many team commanders joining the discussion on this tactical update.

Many players transformed into tactical masters, putting forward views, refuting others' views, and engaging in fierce clashes between the lines.

During this period, whenever a novel tactical view emerged, it would be instantly dismantled by other players, or give rise to more variant tactics.

Posts on the section's popularity list updated every hour; the entire forum was immersed in an unprecedented thinking carnival, sounding the rousing prelude to countering the Bully Alliance.

Whether players or Di Nian Bullies, all were seeking breakthroughs and growth.

Three days later, at four in the afternoon.

Di Nian Bully waited for the opportunity to test the new tactic.

The player army assembled and advanced toward the node where Gui Ya was located, obviously wanting to capture the Gao Ta occupied by Gui Ya in one go.

But it naturally would not let the players have their way, sending connection invitations to the other four nodes.

Before long, black light pillars shot out simultaneously from the tips of the Gao Ta at the five major Black Tide nodes, docking with the Evil Moon hanging high in the sky, completing the connection of the resource-sharing network.

At the same time, the five Evil Spirit Warriors, led by Di Nian Evil Spirit, floated into the air simultaneously.

Their backs docked with the tentacles of the Evil Eyes, entering command mode.

At the same time, the Evil Eyes also completed docking through the node network, with invisible tentacles connecting.

With the total command authority obtained, Di Nian Bully's Shen Se Qi tightened, and his thoughts spread out like an explosion.

"Holy crap!"

Simultaneously taking control of five Evil Eyes caused Di Nian Evil Spirit's sea of consciousness to trem violently.

Five distinct floods of perception were surging madly into the depths of its consciousness.

Gui Ya's killing intuition pierced in like sharp arrows, every thought carrying a strong desire for killing and destruction.

Tie Ji's tactical analysis was like a cold river of data, dividing the battlefield into countless calculable modules.

Fu Xin's poisonous schemes turned into sticky poison fog, weaving deadly traps at the level of consciousness.

Bing Xue Wen's berserk war will was like a burning meteor, constantly colliding in its sea of consciousness to spark new war desires.

Five battlefields appeared simultaneously in the mind, as if entering a state of omniscience and omnipotence, possessing a god's vision.

The actions of every player clan member on the battlefield only needed perceptual focus to deduce the next action trajectory.

Thinking speed multiplied.

The time required to generate a tactical decision compared to before increased by at least 13 times.

The even stronger point was that its prediction and reasoning ability changed from active to passive.

The moment a spell-casting player raised his hand, it had already seen the ink-flame output trajectory to be released one second later; it didn't even need to actively deduce, as the five major Evil Eyes would synchronously provide precise calculations.

A complete tactical network gradually took shape in the mind; what Di Nian saw was no longer the slaughter of a single battlefield, but a three-dimensional chess game covering five nodes.

The Black Tide energy of the five major nodes could all generate evil chess pieces that it could deploy at will.

"Awesome!"

After a brief experience, Di Nian Evil Spirit distributed the authority to the other four nodes.

After all, this was not a war for him alone; he still needed the assistance of the Evil Spirits of the other four nodes.

The location chosen this time was the battlefield of the Ash Lands where Gui Ya was located.

In the scene, hundreds of thousands of player troops advanced toward the Gao Ta from different directions.

Above the Gao Ta platform, four Evil Spirit phantoms appeared out of thin air beside Gui Ya.

The internet cafe five-in-a-row mode was activated, starting the initial combat test.

"Follow the steps I shared with you; there will definitely be coordination problems in the first combat test. What we need to do is constantly improve this war mode, bring out each other's ability advantages, and build an invincible Black Tide Legion."

"Understood, let's start." Bing Xue Wen grinned, revealing sharp fangs, with an expectant Shen Se Qi.

Di Nian Evil Spirit nodded, weaving a simulated tactical demonstration scene in the spiritual connection network with the Zhong De Xiang Fa in his mind.

Then he looked up, gazing toward the direction from which the hundreds of thousands of player troops were attacking; the dust storm raised by the player war boots trampling the scorched earth formed a sky-obscuring cloud, and the tank-flow players at the very front were surrounded by red air currents, forming a continuous red wave.

In the blink of an thought, Gui Ya quickly generated Death Disaster Archers in front of the Gao Ta, who fell from the black fog like dumplings.

After forming ranks, the Death Disaster Archers drew their bowstrings to the full simultaneously, with plague fire shared over by Tie Ji after generating plague-type troops jumping on the arrowheads.

When players entered the range marked by Di Nian's Evil Spirit, the arrows manipulated by Gui Ya, entwined with plague and storing Black Tide energy, whistled skyward, only to have their trajectories twisted mid-flight by Tie Ji's Annihilation-class troops; the arrow rain suddenly split into three waves.

The moment they landed, corrosive power spread across the front line of the battlefield, forming a corrosion domain.

After the Black Tide energy stored in the arrowheads exploded and dispersed, under Bing Xue Wen's control, it rapidly generated Apocalypse-class war troops, whose grotesque figures materialized stepping through black mist.

These five-meter-tall, lava-structured Apocalypse Warriors transformed into battlefield chainsaws upon appearing, launching a fierce assault on the damage-tanking player camp.

Meanwhile, under Fu Xin's control, Frenzy Tide Assassins spawned from the battlefield's flanks, approaching the player army from different directions, using shared marking information to locate assassination targets.

Following that came the appearance of the Disaster-class troops most familiar to players, standing respectively at the very front and the very rear of the battlefield.

In this initial black-market cooperation, the Bully Alliance demonstrated considerable war control.

Without Di Nian's Evil Spirit needing to multitask, each Evil Spirit Warrior possessed a clear battlefield role definition.

Under the combined efforts of the Five Great Bullies, the players instantly felt immense pressure.

At this moment, the God King, who was commanding his own United Warband, also sensed something was wrong.

During the Black Tide Legion's advance, there was both the familiar feeling of Di Nian Bully controlling evil spirits and many new tactical applications.

It felt to him that the Five Great Bullies were conducting a live combat test of a new war mode.

They wanted to maximize the synergy advantages of the Black Tide's different system troops.

Di Nian Bully had played this way before, but ultimately chose to abandon it; now he had started again.

Upon asking for guidance, the God King received an affirmative answer.

The Five Great Bullies had truly joined forces.

Fortunately, the Disaster Backlash tactic was not used in this war; the Disaster-class troops controlled by Di Nian Bully served only as pure defensive units.

Secondly, this test did not activate the energy-saving mode Di Nian Bully was best at; although the pressure was high, the returns were not low.

Understanding the situation, the God King simply abandoned the thought of seizing the Gui Ya node.

With the Five Great Bullies Alliance sharing resources and Evil Eye computing power, swallowing the Gui Ya node was unrealistic.

Now, the most important thing was to acquire more Shou Shou Jili resources before defeat, picking soft targets on the battlefield to attack.

The God King's voice rang out in the United Warband channel, and a new round of war deployment was rapidly organized.

On the other side, on the platform of the Black Tide Gao Ta, Di Nian and four floating Evil Spirit Warriors were engaged in intense consciousness exchange.

When one party had a need, Di Nian's Evil Spirit provided Evil Eye computing power and Black Tide energy assistance immediately.

Letting resources and Evil Eye computing power become the blood flowing through the war network.

Among them, Di Nian's Evil Spirit played the role of the brain, responsible for coordinating the whole situation, letting the "blood" circulate within this five-in-one war body according to its own will.

Under deep linkage, the entire battlefield presented an unprecedentedly clear picture in Di Nian's Evil Spirit's mind.

In the initial testing phase of this mode, although unfamiliar, the performance effect was excellent.

It allowed every Evil Spirit to have no worries about the rear, needing only to be responsible for their own battlefield role and maximize their advantages.

When Gui Ya controlled Death Disaster-class troops and needed to predict the positioning of player rear-output combat power, Di Nian's Evil Spirit's tactical analysis module merged into its consciousness, providing computing power support.

When Tie Ji needed to precisely calculate the plague dispersion trajectory, Di Nian's Evil Spirit's battlefield environment map immediately injected into its consciousness, providing real-time dynamic deduction; countless pale green information streams intertwined in Tie Ji's mind, precisely outlining the shape of the poison fog changing with air currents every second.

When Fu Xin plotted to assassinate powerful enemy output units, the "Player Psychological Game Yan Suan Fa" written by Di Nian's Evil Spirit accessed its thoughts, providing early recorded player thought models, predicting action trends; the assassination timing flashed as light points in the thought map, with success rate numbers marked on every choice.

When Bing Xue Wen prepared to launch a frontal assault, Di Nian's Evil Spirit would allocate more Black Tide energy and provide the most optimized charge route planning.

The relatively weak points on the player defense line lit up with red light simultaneously, and the expected casualty ratios for each breakthrough point jumped and updated in consciousness.

The fused torrent of thoughts perfectly blended under the coordination of the "Di Nian Main Brain."

During this process, Di Nian's Evil Spirit was also incredibly excited.

"This is true war art."

Its projected body trembled with excitement.

Sharing resources and Evil Eye computing power allowed its understanding of war to upgrade once again.

The seemingly chaotic battlefield was, in its mind, a three-dimensional picture woven together by slaughter, calculation, fury, death, and tactics...

Every Black Tide unit was a limb extending to the battlefield, and every attack was like a precise strike from the Grim Reaper's scythe.

Under the efficient war mode, the player army was constantly cut apart and slaughtered.

It became a purely satisfying match in Di Nian's Evil Spirit's eyes.

But as the war intensity escalated, friction began to appear among the Evil Spirits.

After a volley of Death Disaster-class troop arrows, within the mental network:

Gui Ya: Damn, Tie Ji, your plague poison fog dispersion is too slow; Laozi has already finished shooting, and your corrosion armor break hasn't even been applied yet, what the hell are you doing?

Tie Ji: Bullshit; clearly your Death Disaster-class troop output was too early; the damage-tanking players in the player legion haven't even entered the plague dispersion circle yet; you completely don't understand what you're rushing for.

Fu Xin: Can you two idiots stop arguing? Bing Xue Wen, why the hell are you pushing forward so fast on the front? Laozi's assassin troops aren't even in position yet; are you rushing to die?

Bing Xue Wen: Wait for your assassins to get in position, and the player legion's support group will have already healed the damage-tanking players to full; don't drag your feet, cut the battlefield from the flanks immediately and relieve pressure for me.

Gui Ya: You damn fool, do you think this is hitting a training dummy? The plague dispersion is slow, and you still have the nerve to make excuses?

Tie Ji: Heh, now you're blaming me? Who just said the plague poison fog coverage needed to be precise to provide debuff buffs for you, so your output could be maximized?

Fu Xin: Stupid Bing Xue Wen, Laozi's assassination rhythm is completely messed up; screw your xxx!

Bing Xue Wen: Damn! You're the stupid one; the problem is with you, not me, you dog.

Hearing the mutual cursing content in the consciousness connection network, Di Nian's Evil Spirit's forehead veins throbbed.

He knew that if they kept arguing like this, the war simply could not proceed smoothly.

So he immediately spoke up to interrupt:

"Everyone shut up; internal strife solves nothing. I said the first cooperation would definitely have a series of adaptation problems; what we need to do is mutual understanding, giving comrades more room for error. Mistakes won't make us fail; don't forget our original intention is to defeat the players."

After speaking, Di Nian's Evil Spirit took a deep breath and began to correct the mistakes they had made in the joint operation:

"Gui Ya, your output rhythm was indeed a bit fast, but Tie Ji, your poison fog dispersion speed also indeed needs optimization; this isn't a question of who is right or wrong, but that we all need to adapt to this completely new combat style."

Speaking thus, Di Nian pulled up the combat footage from just now in the shared consciousness and listed the data:

"Even with coordination errors, our casualty ratio has improved by 47% compared to fighting alone. Imagine how terrifying it will be once we are fully synchronized?"

Speaking here, Di Nian Xie Ling softened his tone:

"Bing Xue Wen, I know you are used to a fighting style that charges forward without hesitation, but a Corrupted Heart assassin needs time to take position. Also, Corrupted Heart, you should understand that sometimes a frontal assault can create better assassination opportunities for you. Your coordination also needs synchronization and mutual understanding."

"From now on, you must all remember: once we enter War Network Mode, we are no longer five separate individuals, but a single whole."

"Gui Ya's firepower is the spearhead piercing the defense lines; Tie Ji's plague is the Zhou Yin corroding the enemy formation; Bing Xue Wen's charge is the sharp tooth tearing the battlefield; Corrupted Heart's assassination is the venomous sting of the fatal blow... and my command is your shared brain, forging our sharp edges into a black tide storm that destroys everything!"

Under Di Nian's coordination, the four Xie Ling warriors who could not stand each other chose once again to calm their hearts and cooperate.

The internet cafe's five-man black mode sets sail again.

But even with Di Nian Xie Ling responsible for coordination, during the confrontation with players, members of the Bully Alliance would occasionally still be unable to hold back from insulting each other.

Sometimes, when emotions rose, they simply could not hold back even a little.

We are all Xie Ling warriors of the same class; who is going to indulge whom?
