Chapter 123: Confrontation? it
"In the City of Waiting, my subordinates are working on a powerful weapon of war that, once mass-produced, will allow me to crush my enemies. So I decided, we're going to stick to Osgilia and wait for the right time. β
Facing the presidents of the Necromantic Players Guild, Qingyi said this, and passed the "roaring detonator" in his hand to everyone to watch. As soon as Super Burger King saw this attribute, he geared up and had a high fighting spirit.
"In addition, we may not be able to hold the gates. Therefore, I decided to ...... Seal the city gates. β
"Seal the city gates?!" Necromantic Judge Nave, who had been listening, couldn't hold back and stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, please take back your order. If you seal the city gates, the cavalry will not be able to attack in time, and your situation will be extremely dangerous! This is undoubtedly cutting off his hands and feet, and then tying his body with iron cables! β
"Don't doubt my orders." With a wave of the Black Dragon Scepter, Qingyi's entire [Soul Force Field] squeezed and wrapped Naf, pressing her armor with a clicky sound. "You're my knight, understand?"
Nav gritted her teeth and said, "With all due respect, although I am your knight, I am also the supreme commander of your army. Sitting? I can't understand such a stupid act-"
Rumble! Frankie has vanished from the spot like a teleporter, pinning Nav to the ground! Four strong claws pressed firmly against the joints of Nave's limbs, and Frankie showed no pity for the jade. It leaned its head close to Nave's neck, grinned, and said in a low voice, "Don't talk about the master...... Stupidity. β
"This ......" Deadly Stinger was a little stunned. Why did your own people beat your own people?
"It's fine." Qingyi said to him.
Nave's delicate, smooth face was grounded, bloodied. She glared at the phoenix and shouted angrily, "Frankie, what are you doing here? You are foolish, you know? β
"Whatever you say, the fire of my soul is given by my master, my body is shaped by my master's own hands, and my destiny is always maintained with my master. It's you who are stupid. You are your master's subordinate, and your army is entrusted by your master, but that doesn't mean you can question your master's orders. Obeying orders is the first duty of a soldier, and you should understand this truth. Frankie, who has always used "don't speak" to be cool, can actually speak clearly, which makes Qingyi slightly surprised. "You just have some command talent, but you don't know what to do."
"No one in sight...... It's you! Nave turned her headβshe twisted her head 180 degrees, and then slammed her head upwards! She was decapitated before she died, and of course her head could fall off at will!
Frankie has been through a hundred battles, how could he not guard against this sneak attack? It lifted its chin and narrowly avoided the blow that smashed the masonry. But Neve had already had a chance, and as soon as her waist arched, her back pressed against Frankie's abdomen, lifting Frankie into the air. After the two jumped away, they collided again, and the heavy black streamers had instantly separated them.
"It's a matter of time." Qingyi's voice is full of majesty and cannot be disobeyed. "You are colleagues, not enemies, and there is no need for [Iron Will] to be used against each other. Nave, I don't want to repeat the order again, you go and rest the cavalry now. β
Nafu glared at Qingyi before bowing her head deeply: "Obey, my ...... Your Majesty. She walked away with each heavy step, as if she were about to smash the stairs.
Watching the beautiful knight leave, Super Burger King shrugged: "Your subordinates really have personalities. Well, what's next? β
Qingyi also shrugged.
The next step was to seal the gates. This is an old routine in film and television dramas, blocking behind the city gate with huge stones is a way to block even your own retreat. However, Qing Yi did not hesitate at all when he chose this decision, because the necromantic creatures could be evacuated from the sewers, and it was the living players who needed to have a headache. He took it upon himself to seal the South City Gate - Xue Duo stretched out countless shadow tentacles and smashed the stones to the ground, and the job was done, envying the other guild presidents to death.
I have to say that in the past few days of contact, the presidents have a deeper understanding of Qingyi, so they have begun to change their views on Qingyi (like Super Burger King no longer raises the bar with Qingyi). But there is still one person who is completely unmoved, and that is by the water and the mountains. No matter what strategy Qingyi proposes or what strength he shows, he is lukewarm by the water and mountains.
"Also, you read the posts at the top of the game forums." Qingyi said: "The publisher of the post is the gossip sect leader who is currently ranked fourth on the 'gospel' heavenly list and is known as 'dust'. His stealth and penetration skills are probably the best in the world, and he can sneak into our cities, eavesdropping on our every conversation, and peeking at our every setup. In other words, everything we do will be conveyed to the bald eagle in detail. β
The deadly stinger muttered with a worried face, as if asking someone else but also asking himself: "What then...... It's not good......"
"Yes, it's very bad, so we try not to say important things or show them. I'm even going to do some fake moves to let the gossip leader get mixed information, which can also interfere with Bald Eagle's tactical arrangement. Qingyi yawned.
Unknown shook his head and said: "In this case, our dialogue is also restricted, and we can't communicate well, so that even our own people can't figure out what is true and what is false, which is even more detrimental to our arrangement." β
"Soul wavelength."
Qing Yi raised his right hand, summoned a Silent Annihilation Raven, and then said with a smile: "When the Silent Annihilation Raven delivered a message for us, it was conveyed by copying the soul wavelength, and it was not speaking the lingua franca of the continent. Moreover, the Silent Annihilation Raven is a one-to-one communication tool, and the "Qiankun" system makes them confidential, even if the gossip leader can understand the soul wavelength, there is no way to eavesdrop. So, it's safe for us to have a private conversation with the Raven of Silence. β
whispered something to the bird in his hand, and Qingyi handed it over to the unknown. Knowing Bubai was slightly surprised, and received Qingyi's soul wavelength from the Silent Annihilation Raven, and couldn't help but nod. The rest of the presidents also took over the birds and learned about Qingyi's arrangement.
"But ah, even if we can tell the truth in private, what should be arranged will always be arranged, and this will also be seen by the gossip master?" This time it was the Super Burger King who raised the question, and he couldn't imagine the five big and three coarse rigid martial artists, and his brain was not slow: "As long as the other party ignores what we say and concentrates on what we do, then he won't be confused?" β
When the presidents thought about it, this was really the case. Morale is low again.
"I know. We're just going to show each other. If you give up defense and focus on offense, you can find the key point by the gossip master...... And what about defense? We try our best to defend, no matter what information the other side knows, they will never be able to take advantage of it, and they must fight a tough battle with us! If the other party has any targeted tactics, then we will see the move, and then think of countermeasures to crack it temporarily! β
"Is this really possible?" β
"Yes! As the old Chinese saying goes, 'If you keep the same, you can cope with all changes', and there is nothing wrong with that! Look at it, this siege battle, we will definitely win! As if declaring war on someone, Qingyi confidently pointed the Black Dragon Scepter into the distance, and then yawned.

Around noon.
In the command room dedicated to Bald Eagle, the base camp of the living players, Bald Eagle is holding a telescope and carefully looking at the opposite side. He's the only one here, and each guild leader has their own guild affairs to deal with.
Osgillia did not move.
"Wow, this crystal is the 'Communication Crystal'? High-tech! Suddenly, a voice rang out from inside the tent, but it was from an elf. The elf had a lot of dark green tattoos on his face, making him mysterious and cool, and he was curiously studying a red crystal that stood on a shelf, with no image to speak of.
"Don't move that! Also, can you knock on the door the next time you come in? Bald Eagle put down his binoculars and said angrily.
"Sorry, I don't have that habit." The gossip sect leader was fiddling with those magic props in the tent, and when he heard this, he rolled his eyes.
"Well, then, Mr. Okami, please sit down and tell me what you have seen."
The gossip leader plucked his ears, the bald eagle yawned, and the two began to talk.
"Junesunshine knows that I'm spying on intelligence, so I'm using the Silence Raven to communicate. I've seen their properties, and those birds can't be completely killed, and what they want to convey is sure to reach their target. Also, I don't understand the cry of the Silent Raven, so I should find a druid. β
"Aren't you an elf?" Bald Eagle asked.
"Don't pretend to be stupid, I'm an elf, but I can only communicate with plants a little. No, I'll take that back because the druids probably won't be able to do it...... Druids only talk to angry creatures, not to understand the words of undead creatures. β
"So, did the enemy communicate openly?"
"Yes." The gossip leader said with certainty, and put the "video crystal" on the table: "I said you, if you want to watch it, I can just send the video to you outside the game, and I have to do so many tricks in the game." β
"No, I can't. Even if you watch a video, something may happen in the game. As a 'chess player', I can't just leave the board, and the guy across from me is no differentβeven though he doesn't deserve the title of 'chess player' at all. Bald Eagle picked up the "video crystal" and began to watch.
(During the viewing, the gossip leader was bored, and just as he was about to get up, the bald eagle said, "Don't touch anything here.") βοΌ
Putting down the "video crystal", Bald Eagle smiled: "Interesting, really interesting." It is useful to deceive the layman by saying that he will be able to cope with all changes if he remains the same. β
"Was this a lie?" The Gossip Sect Master was surprised. "He said it so confidently that I thought it was true."
"On the premise that 'the gossip sect leader is peeping on the sidelines', it is naturally impossible for June Sunshine to tell the truth, that is to say, all his public conversations are false. He had no intention of defending the city at all, either retreating or attacking it. From now on, he's a liar and you can't trust a word. β
"So, you have the confidence to see through his lies?"
The bald eagle stared at the image in the crystal and said, "What faith does this need?" He couldn't have done anything against me, so I knew everything he was doing. In this battle, he will definitely lose. β
