Fatal Shot

Chapter 968: Divine insect?

Views:

After about ten minutes, the team entered the stronghold of the Nightless City.

It is said to be a stronghold, but it is actually just a very simple camp building plus some warehouses surrounded by wire fences, as well as some open spaces where transport vehicles are parked.

This is because the strongholds set up by players in "War Chronicles" are not like guild stations where monsters will not be refreshed after killing them.

Therefore, if the construction is simpler, it will be easier to maintain and the loss will be small after encountering an incident.

However, perhaps it is because of the existence of the Zerg base.

Therefore, the density of monsters in this area is not high, and the security of this stronghold in the Nightless City is still very good.

At least, there have been no BOSS-level creatures nearby.

"The cause of the matter was four days ago. When our people discovered a quasi-BOSS and killed most of its health, the Sand Wolf Guild suddenly rushed out with a group of people to grab monsters."

"The two sides fought a battle, and most of our people were killed because they were not in good condition during the battle with the quasi-boss."

"However, Sand Wolf's people actually complained first, saying that our people stole their mission target, and the area where the quasi-boss exists is also within their sphere of influence, so they asked us to apologize to them."

In a conference room in the stronghold, Muzi said to Feng Luo angrily.

"Of course this made our people very angry, so we had a really bad fight with them in the forum."

"I originally thought that this matter was in the past, but I didn't expect that when our people were spawning monsters the next day, we were attacked by Sand Wolf and all of them were killed."

"It made everyone angry at once, so we also organized people to kill the two mission teams of the Sand Wolf Guild and steal their monsters."

"After that, it gradually became a matter of meeting each other. In the past few days, there have been more than ten games."

Muzi's words made Feng Luo frown.

"The Sand Wolf Guild? I remember it was just a guild with no more than a thousand members."

Then, he turned around and asked.

"There are a total of 1,753 people, and the core combat members are about 500."

In the conference room, in addition to Muzi and Feng Luo, there was also Mu Wu who appeared opposite Feng Luo through the projection of the communication device. After hearing Feng Luo's words, he spoke.

"I got you… "

After answering, Mu Wu did not let Muzi explain to Feng Luo anymore, but continued talking himself.

"I specially asked someone to check it out... and found that the Sand Wolf Guild received a large amount of financing five days ago, which came from the financing of the Miki Consortium."

Mu Wu's words were a little jumpy, but Feng Luo understood them clearly.

Because he knows this "Miki Consortium".

Just half a month ago, this consortium approached Evernight City to discuss buying shares.

When discussing the establishment of a city that never sleeps, Feng Luo and Mu Wu agreed not to accept capital injections from any real consortium.

Therefore, Evernight City rejected any intention to buy shares or invest, and the Miki Consortium was naturally defeated.

Speaking of which, there are actually quite a few financial groups eyeing the Evernight City.

Because the city that never sleeps is indeed a bit eye-catching right now and has great potential.

As the only guild in the depths of the Death Desert, the fact that Nightless City could be established on a map of over 70 levels is a miracle in itself.

Considering the significance of the game "Legacy of War", the benefits of establishing a guild here are naturally impossible to avoid being noticed.

Just wanting to establish a base in a desert is almost impossible.

Because there are too many restrictive conditions and it consumes too much financial resources.

But the city that never sleeps is because of the "underground city". Not only has the city been successfully built, but the area currently used is less than one-tenth of the entire underground city.

This alone is actually a huge "wealth", enough to save 90% of the city's basic cost of building the city that never sleeps.

As for a city located in the only desert map above level 70 in the game, although the advantages are not big now, the benefits in the future are obvious.

Even, not only the hardware, but also the software is also eye-catching.

The only player guild with two top ten masters at the same time, and the only guild with the only female mecha master player in the game...

Even super guilds such as Nine Star Guild, SK Group, Tianxia Group, and Yuehuang Guild would not have these two.

The most important thing is that because of the space battleship, Evernight City has become an important partner of the military, backed by the federal military.

This guild station is completely different from other stations built by players. You need to consider the possible risk of being directly razed to the ground if you provoke a super BOSS one day.

All put together, there is no need to say more about the attraction of the Evernight City to the real capital and consortiums that are now entering the game in large numbers.

However, no matter how favorable the request for shares was, Mu Wu rejected it with a smile.

And if these consortiums go to find the person in charge of the real guild, they will find that the "number one sniper in the war" seems to have never turned on the communication prompt and cannot be contacted at all.

This Miki Group is very wealthy and is a super large consortium headquartered in Capital Star.

Previously, he wanted to acquire 90% of the shares of Evernight City at a price of 9 billion star coins!

As a result, it still failed to succeed.

Obviously, after determining that there was no way to acquire shares, the Miki Group chose another strategy.

Since there is no way to buy shares, then suppress it. With the wealth of the Miki Consortium and the Evernight City that does not accept investment from outsiders, it will definitely be dragged down.

"The Oasis Town is located in the middle of the Withered Desert, 78 kilometers away from our stronghold in a straight line. It is the largest oasis in the Withered Desert.

"The average level of the surrounding monsters is between level 45 and 55, which is most suitable for current players to level up, acquire equipment and quests... In addition, within a radius of 100 kilometers around the two of them, there is also a special and extremely rare material. This material It’s only around the oasis town in the whole game.”

In the communication device, Mu Wu opened a map and pointed to an area of about four to five hundred square kilometers.

"In addition, in the middle of the entire withered desert, this is the only place with sufficient water."

"The Sand Wolf Guild is one of several guilds in this oasis town with thousands of members."

"The latest news is that in addition to investing in the Sand Wolf Guild, the Miki Consortium is also discussing acquisitions with several other guilds with thousands of people, as well as some powerful mercenary groups."

"Once the acquisition is completed, it will be merged into a guild that includes more than 90% of the players in Oasis Town. It is said that the name has been chosen and is going to be called 'Sand Covenant'."

When Mu Wu said this, he suddenly looked at Feng Luo with a strange expression.

"how?"

Feng Luo looked at him a little strangely.

"Don't you think this name seems to be directed at you?"

Mu Wu smiled.

"It's really a bit... By the way, please don't make fun of my ID. This is not the beginning of writing a book. I haven't thought about it, okay... I can't change it..."

Feng Luo was a little speechless and didn't want to answer Mu Wu's words.

"Okay... let me tell you about the situation in Oasis Town."

Mu Wu smiled and returned to business.

"Because of its location, Oasis Town has now become the preferred supply station and transit station for many players entering the center of the withered desert to do missions."

"This largest oasis in a blighted desert is named a town and belongs to the Federation, but it actually has autonomy."

"This is because most of the NPCs in the oasis town are refugees who hid in the desert to escape the war and their descendants."

"So, although they have joined the federation, they have a certain rejection of the federal government. The federal military and laws do not apply here. The residents of the small town have the power to decide their own laws and administrative policies!"

"so what?"

The tacit understanding between Mu Wu and Feng Luo allowed Feng Luo to know that Mu Wu's words were not off-topic, but that there must be something more to them without even thinking about it.

"While collecting information about the oasis town, I discovered something interesting."

"Many residents of the town, especially the older generation, have feelings of admiration and gratitude for a kind of 'divine insect'!"

"God insect?"

Sure enough, Mu Wu's next words aroused Feng Luo's interest and moved his heart.

"Yes, I took a video of the mythical insect sculpture they built in the center of the town!"

Muwu smiled and switched the drawing to a video.

The "divine insect" on the picture has scorpion-like pincers, a purple-brown carapace, and wings that resemble inverted bats.

"Is this a Zerg worker bee?"

Feng Luo could tell at a glance what the prototype of this sculpture was.

He suddenly understood why Mu Wu could be so relaxed and even joke with him when the news was actually quite serious and would most likely affect the subsequent development of Evernight City.

The NPC in the Oasis Town actually regards the Zerg worker bees as "divine insects" and "worships and appreciates them"

This is very interesting.

Obviously, although the Sam Group brazenly used destructive weapons when dealing with the Zerg, it turned the entire Death Forest into today's Death Desert.

However, because the Zerg population was too large, although the main base was destroyed, it was not completely exterminated.

In particular, although the worker bees are the least combat-effective units among the Zerg, they are likely to have survived the explosion because of their ability to go deep underground.

Later, these Zerg worker bees interacted with the residents of the isolated oasis town who entered the desert to escape the war, and became the "divine insects" in their hearts...

The specific details of this process are not of great significance.

The greatest significance is that these "indigenous" residents of the town who are grateful and even worship the "Zergs" have the power to decide the town's policies!
