"Don't get too happy too soon... Judging from what happened to the previous strongholds, these 'villain' forces don't just attack foreign strongholds... Moreover, the two you mentioned are unlikely to appear now!"
Ji Ye frowned.
He understood now, no wonder there was no call for "race war" this round.
Because "evil people" have appeared in the civilizations created by various races. These people may even kill their own people, let alone aliens.
The conflicts between different civilizations and races will only become more intensified.
"These villains who represent the 'evil' within a race's civilization are probably one of the hidden meanings of the second half of the sentence mentioned at the beginning of the mission, 'not only competing with alien races, but also facing various difficulties at the same time.' .”
"However, what I am more curious about is that the several strongholds mentioned by Mr. Meng all belong to villain forces that have encountered foreign strongholds. Is this provoking internal conflicts within our civilization?"
"If we advance with this, will there be a situation where we encounter villains in the background of our stronghold? For example, Wang Qing and other forces in "Water Margin". And 'Skynet' will also appear in the form of villains to form the Terminator. ?"
Guo Wei's eyes under his silver technology glasses were thoughtful.
"There is currently too little information for me to answer these questions."
Mr. Meng shook his head.
"However, I think these villains are also outstanding people after all. Under the same conditions, they would probably be more willing to attack foreign races, right?"
Then, he said something else.
This is not unfounded.
There are still more than 50,000 "strongholds" on the earth in the land of inheritance. Only a few of them have encountered "evil people" belonging to the human race, and the rest have encountered "villain" forces from alien races!
It shows that at least the place of inheritance has not deliberately allowed the "good and evil" forces of various races and civilizations to "kill each other"!
Otherwise, even Erlong Village will inevitably have a headache.
Because the term "Water Margin heroes" is a complimentary term in most people's minds, but some "Liangshan heroes" are indeed not qualified to be called "heroes"!
For example, the little bully Zhou Tong, the short-legged tiger Wang Ying, the two-gun general Dong Ping, Sun Erniang... If these characters appeared in the form of "villains" and came into contact with Erlong Island, Ji Ye would be in trouble.
After all, with the "loyalty" that Wu Song and others emphasize, it is estimated that they will be inclined to "incorporate" them by then.
If nothing else, at least Lu Zhishen and Wu Song will definitely remember their "old love" for Sun Erniang, the dominatrix who is also the leader of Erlong Village!
…
After discussing this new "villain" force and deciding on some countermeasures.
The topic of the meeting turned to "Ghost Ship" again!
"Judging from the fact that this ghost ship controlled a lot of 'Tyrant Lizard' and 'Snake Ape' souls, it should have attacked the strongholds of these two races before, and even killed the leaders of the other strongholds, so it gained a lot of Wealth and treasure!”
"I guess this process went very smoothly and we didn't encounter too much resistance."
Mr. Zhou analyzed.
This ghost ship has mastered truly "extraordinary" abilities.
It can be said that it is not too difficult to destroy a fifth- or sixth-level metamorphosis stronghold without any targeted means.
And it was precisely because it went so well before that Captain Ghost, who was the "villain" of the four-armed snake-man civilization, launched an attack directly without any probing.
However, it happened to hit "Erlong Island"!
The most powerful existence among the human strongholds on the entire earth cannot be defeated by some soul creatures with obvious weaknesses. In this battle, only a dozen people died in Erlong Village.
But what you gain is not only equipment, but also the talent of "Ghost Captain".
Ji Ye has an idea that these "villain" forces may appear in the inheritance land. In addition to testing, they also play the role of "treasure-delivery boy".
This treasure not only refers to equipment and resources, but also refers to "talent"!
As Brother Chong said, some villains and characters, such as the villains he just gave examples, have "famousness" that is not inferior to that of heroes, which naturally provides them with powerful "innate" abilities!
It is obviously a waste for these outstanding talents to fall on these "evil people".
"Inheriting" it to some "outstanding people" with insufficient potential is the correct way to enhance the strength of the entire civilization!
Ji Ye even speculated that inheriting the "talent" might have a deeper meaning.
"A single villain poses no threat to us. We are afraid that these 'evildoers' will join forces with each other to attack a strong stronghold!"
At this time, Mr. Jiao spoke.
"Well, Mr. Jiao said the possibility cannot be ruled out."
"I suspect that these villains need to complete certain 'tasks' just like us!"
"Well, next, we will arrange for rotating personnel to guard the player base. Once there is new information about the 'villain' on the forum, we can directly notify it online."
Ji Ye nodded.
Compared with the 'villain forces', the frontal stronghold where players are located undoubtedly has a huge advantage, that is, they can obtain information through players going offline.
Then, Ji Ye announced the final decision.
"After defeating the ghost ship, our stronghold gained a large amount of luck power, which has completely replenished the power of luck consumed by leading Zhao Yun!"
"And this time we have gained three more leader-level civilization souls, and a seventh-level quasi-leader-level civilization soul."
"In view of the current situation, I have decided to recruit a few more outstanding people later!"
Ji Ye said to the others who looked a little surprised.
The reason for the accident is that the "reception" ceremony consumes a lot of luck power, and the current stronghold level of Erlong Island has reached the ninth level of transformation.
At the last meeting, everyone discussed whether to temporarily stop "sacrifice" and other activities that consume the power of luck to see if there is a chance to be the first to complete the task of "promoting to the extraordinary"
But when Ji Ye said this, he definitely didn't intend to continue accumulating.
First, the conditions for a stronghold to advance to the "extraordinary" level are still not clear at all.
Ji Ye's intuition was that he would not be able to "advance" simply by accumulating the power of luck, as he had before when he transformed into a mortal level!
The two of them have just encountered the ghost ship, a "villain" force with thousands of dead souls, at the beginning. It is not ruled out that they will encounter stronger and even weirder beings in the future.
It is also necessary to recruit a few more outstanding people to better deal with complex situations.
And the third reason is because Ji Ye can feel that the power of luck gained by the stronghold after defeating the "Ghost Ship" is much more than what it would have gained by stopping consumption in three days.
Feeding war with war, increasing revenue rather than cutting expenditure, this is probably the more correct "promotion" strategy!
Of course, the most important point is that the soul of civilization revealed by "Ghost Captain" has reached the seventh level of transformation, and it is still classified as a "quasi-leader".
This is completely enough to attract another "extraordinary person"!
The only thing that needs to be thought about is, which sacrifice should be used this time
