Heitu City.
A low-level fortress was under attack.
Outside the city, Qingcheng stood among a group of people.
Beside her was naturally her vice-president.
The person who had always stayed by her side.
"Has the message been sent out?"
Qingcheng asked.
"It has already reached Tianya Kuangdao's ears!"
Qingcheng nodded upon hearing the reply.
She didn't ask how it was delivered.
She trusted this man implicitly in his dealings.
The latter, standing behind Qingcheng's side, stared at her blankly.
Qingcheng suddenly turned around.
Startled, he quickly shifted his gaze elsewhere.
"What?"
The moment Qingcheng turned, she saw his flustered look and asked with a frown.
"N-nothing!"
The latter became even more flustered and quickly replied.
"If it's nothing, why are you so flustered? Alright, we're done here. Let's move to the next location!"
Qingcheng gave him a bewildered glance.
Leading her people, they set off for another low-level fortress.
Now, her subordinates were strong and well-equipped.
Dozens of guilds had pledged allegiance to her for their preservation.
This made her feel invigorated.
Heitu City, without Slaughter or the Nihility God Alliance.
She had never imagined the situation would turn out this way.
Previously, she thought the Huang Corporation's efforts to win hearts and minds in Heitu City were meant to achieve something significant.
Who would have thought they were drawing people to Siji City?
This resulted in no guild being able to curb her development here for the time being.
At the same time, she was grateful for having connected with the Nihility God Alliance.
Thinking of this, she subconsciously glanced at the man beside her.
It was he who had persuaded her to maintain good relations with Deshen back then.
Thus, she had given Deshen face on that occasion.
This had led to the current situation.
Otherwise, her Qingcheng Guild might have been extinguished in this fortress war.
Because she could not bear to submit to another guild; it would be a blow to her pride.
The northern war zone of the Dragon Country was currently stable.
On the surface, it appeared to be a three-way split.
The Nihility God Alliance controlled the Shengjing City area.
Slaughter was flourishing in Siji City.
Qingcheng, the dark horse, seemed to be getting further and further down the path of picking up scraps.
Everything had become a foregone conclusion.
There was no need to mention Qingcheng's side.
Because Slaughter had not yet settled things in Siji City.
They could not manage her for the time being.
By the time Slaughter dealt with Siji City,
The Nihility God Alliance would also be finished.
They would absolutely not allow Slaughter to deal with Qingcheng unchecked.
Therefore, she didn't need to consider the consequences at all.
What she needed to do now was to grow stronger.
High-level and mid-level fortresses might be too difficult for now.
Then she would take down all the low-level fortresses.
As much as possible, she would avoid destroying the siege equipment within the low-level fortresses, preserving these devices.
To be used for attacking mid-level fortresses.
The path she was taking was the most ordinary and correct path in the fortress war.
Meanwhile, in Siji City, Huang Xueyi and Tianya Kuangdao were discussing their next move.
Tianya Kuangdao had even created a sand table.
This item was now quite valuable.
When Huang Xueyi saw it, he rolled his eyes.
Because the money Tianya Kuangdao spent was all provided by him.
The sand table Tianya Kuangdao purchased from the system was currently priced at over 8000 gold coins.
And that was only for the current war zone.
The man pointed to the high-level fortress in the northernmost part of Heitu City.
It was already displayed as occupied, belonging to Qingcheng.
He then pointed to an adjacent low-level fortress, almost as close to the high-level fortress, and said.
"It's this one. Qingcheng's guild was originally going to attack here!"
Huang Xueyi followed his gaze and nodded.
The geographical location made sense.
As they approached the low-level fortress, the entire view of the high-level fortress could be seen.
This made him believe Tianya Kuangdao's information even more.
Seeing Huang Xueyi nod, Tianya Kuangdao smiled and then shifted his perspective back to Siji City.
"I plan to lead people to take this one."
He said, pointing to a fortress.
Huang Xueyi looked at it. This was also a mid-level fortress.
It wasn't the closest to their current location.
However, after capturing this fortress, it would create a pincer movement towards the high-level fortress on the western side of Siji City.
If the other two mid-level fortresses were also captured,
A perfect encirclement would be formed.
With the siege equipment from the mid-level fortresses deployed.
They could launch an attack on that high-level fortress without a long journey.
After all, siege equipment moved very slowly.
And they could not use teleportation arrays.
So, Tianya Kuangdao's intention was quite clear.
However, just as he was about to nod in agreement.
Someone suddenly shouted from outside.
"Boss, boss, someone wants to see you."
This "boss" was naturally not referring to Huang Xueyi.
"Do I just see anyone I please? Tell him to get lost!"
Tianya Kuangdao was always very pompous.
Like a petty emperor.
He usually had entourages wherever he went.
Anyone who wanted to see him had to submit a request.
This was completely the opposite of Chu Tian.
Chu Tian did not have such airs.
However, Chu Tian was always elusive, like a dragon seen but not its head.
It was even harder for others to meet him.
"Uh, he says his name is Yi Zhi Rou Rou, and that if you meet him, he'll gift us a high-level fortress. If you don't..."
The person outside paused here.
"Yi Zhi Rou Rou? The one from the Nihility God Alliance? And he'll gift me a high-level fortress? Can he die without bragging?
Those scoundrels from the Nihility God Alliance are all high and mighty.
A guy who betrayed a guild, what's he doing showing off here?
If I don't see him, what can he do to us?"
Upon hearing this, Tianya Kuangdao flew into a rage.
He stormed out of the council hall.
"Uh... Boss, I think you should meet him!
He also said that Qingcheng's high-level fortress was the result of his practice."
This person pointed outside and said to Tianya Kuangdao.
"Nonsense, his practice... What did you say?"
Tianya Kuangdao was about to curse.
He suddenly realized.
"He said that Qingcheng's high-level fortress was taken advantage of by others after he finished practicing and left!"
The person repeated.
"Let's go take a look!"
Huang Xueyi also came out at this moment.
Tianya Kuangdao also calmed down.
Despite his usual lack of foresight,
After so long, he had come to understand the game, Heavenly Dao World.
One form of strength in this game is luck.
Look at the Nihility God Alliance; they were all people with heaven-defying luck.
Many people felt this game was unfair.
But in reality, where is there fairness?
Opportunity and luck are all forms of strength.
The Heavenly Dao World is a 100% virtual game that simulates the real world.
It also adopted this model.
The appearance of those fortuitous encounters was precisely like this.
If you are lucky, you might ascend to heaven in one step.
Similarly, not all fortuitous encounters are good.
If you are unlucky, a fortuitous encounter might leave you bankrupt.
And ultimately gain nothing.
This Yi Zhi Rou Rou had fallen out with the Nihility God Alliance before.
He had also wanted to find him and win him over.
However, due to the start of the conquest war,
It was put on hold.
Now that the person has come to visit, isn't it perfect?
He heard that he was an hidden class, capable of summoning undead creatures.
And it seemed he could summon hundreds at once.
Although the attack power was reportedly average,
The sheer numbers were vast.
Setting aside other things, even as a suicide squad, he would be top-tier.
Using players as a suicide squad is very costly.
And many situations in the Heavenly Dao World require the use of suicide squads to overcome crises and explore maps.
"Bring him over!"
Tianya Kuangdao gave the order.
He turned and, along with Huang Xueyi, returned to the council hall.
