Chapter 1348 - 1254: Beelzebub Appears for Real
At 10 am Beijing Time, under the leadership of Little Pig Run’s Flying Dragon Army, the battle situation in China’s Divine Punishment City achieved an overwhelming victory. Not only were the main players of Japan too afraid to show themselves, but even the Hell’s Side NPCs were completely unable to resist.
In no time, the Hell Race NPC strongholds around Divine Punishment City were cleared one by one under the sweep of the Flying Dragon Army. The ground team, already prepped and ready, promptly received the supplies from these strongholds. In just one to two hours, the resource-gathering missions by each team accrued more results than the past three days combined.
The guild team of Royal Family’s Ninth Heaven consolidated a large amount of supplies on their main players to turn in mission tasks all at once. And so, the Royal Family and Ninth Heaven finally secured a reward of 30 Angels, a stark contrast to the past three days when they couldn’t even leave the city for tasks, much less dare to take out one or two troops they’ve painstakingly gathered. It could be described as an overnight windfall and a morale boost.
These 30 Angels are undoubtedly the precious first pot of gold, the foundational start of the snowball effect. At this moment, the Royal Family deeply realized why back then, foreign teams in the European Union Zone were willing to pay a high price to buy troops from Da Fei.
Not only have the large guilds achieved significant gains, but some ordinary players have also finally acquired their first Angels. Meanwhile, under the lucrative purchase offers from the Royal Family, ordinary players are eager to sell their troops.
As such, Little Pig Run transitioned from a roving attacker to an aerial scout, considering the heavy consumption of the Rust Dragon’s breath; it’s better to avoid using it if unnecessary.
With the battle situation now reversed, no one doubts that the China Region will achieve a comprehensive victory. The entire forum is ablaze with voices singing high praise, with calls to flatten the Hell Fortress and drive away Japanese players resounding ever more loudly.
...
At this moment in the U.S. Supernova Team’s video chat room, the heads of the Japan Mitsubishi Team, British Royal Ark Team, and Indian Sky Dragon Eight Parts Team were invited to a video meeting. No matter what, Igarashi, even while convalescing, insisted on attending such an important meeting.
Captain Fordson of the United States spoke with a solemn expression: "Friends, you must have seen the battle happening in China’s Divine Punishment City, and you have also received the mysterious Dragon Clan damage video sent by the Mitsubishi Team. How do you all feel now?"
Nehru of the Indian Zone chuckled in surprise: "I feel that our Japanese friends must be very desperate, right? After all, out of everyone present, our Japanese friends are the only ones who cannot contend with the China Region and have been repeatedly humiliated and defeated by Chinese players."
Igarashi retorted discontentedly: "Mr. Nehru, can it be that you in the Indian Zone are capable of countering the Flying Dragons from the China Region?"
Nehru responded with a proud smile: "I wouldn’t say counter, but defending ourselves is not a problem. By the way, Mr. Igarashi, you should focus on recovering. These matters can be left to the young people."
Igarashi snorted: "Why don’t you leave things to the young people?"
Prince George waved his hand to stop the quarrel and sighed while shaking his head: "Since Da Fei showcased the mysterious airborne unit Beelzebub, we have expedited the development of our air combat units. But not to mention catching up with Da Fei, even ordinary Chinese guilds now have large-scale air forces, and we must abandon our differences and unify our efforts."
Igarashi immediately responded: "Yes, His Highness the Prince is absolutely correct."
Nehru chuckled: "I also have no reason to oppose, but the prerequisite is that we can afford the cost of unifying our efforts, as our professionalization process in the Indian Zone is still lacking compared to those present."
Fordson smiled and said: "Your significant advantage is you’re the only one capable of competing with the China Region in player numbers. The battle of human waves versus human waves, only your region can accomplish that. Our plan requires your manpower resources. As long as Mr. Nehru is willing to cooperate, we can even contact Silicon Valley to sponsor another million client machines for your country, resulting in an extra million players for you."
Nehru beamed: "Since Captain is so sincere, let us hear your plan."
Fordson nodded seriously and said, "I’m talking about Beelzebub!"
Everyone was stunned: "Has Captain made a breakthrough with Beelzebub?"
Fordson called out in the chat room: "Sawsaw, show your results!"
"Yes, Sir!" Following an odd laugh, the video in the chat room suddenly showed a fly as large as a dog!
Everyone exclaimed: "A fly?"
Fordson solemnly stated: "Exactly, this is from the Beelzebub family among the Seven Great Demon Lords of Hell! We were all fooled by Da Fei! In fact, SAWSAW almost missed it when it was discovered, thinking it simply a large type of insect. As an insect, it’s indeed big, but as a descendant of a Demon Lord, the size is beyond imagination!"
Everyone was astonished: "How exactly was it discovered then?"
Sawsaw laughed heartily: "Inspired by the Chinese, we dug out the toilet!"
Nehru exclaimed: "Then what are those ugly creatures Da Fei has?"
Fordson sighed: "I don’t know. This only makes me more curious."
Everyone came to a realization: "Then Captain, what do we need to do?"
Fordson said seriously: "The Demon Lords only exist in the New World. Our mission is to build a Fly Altar at the location designated by the Demon Lord. This requires massive manpower and resources. I hope that you all will actively participate and cooperate. After all, as we’re developing airships, it’s vital to have Beelzebub providing escort cover."
Igarashi immediately declared: "As friends of the American people, our Japan Zone will fully support it!"
Fordson smiled and said: "Indeed, and being part of the Hell Race, the Demon Lords will definitely value you more."
George smiled: "Although our main focus isn’t the Demon Lords, if you need us to contribute, it’s no problem."
Nehru also nodded: "We can only provide manpower, and we will follow the plans for specific implementations!"
Fordson said with satisfaction: "Very good, in a few days the National War Zone will open. At that time, we will not rush to seize territories, but first locate the Fly Altar designated by the Demon Lord, then build territories around it. Of course, to distract Chinese players, we will still send some main forces to seize territories. In the coming days, we will finalize the list of city-building members, striving for resource complementation and member capability complementation..."
...
At 11 am Beijing Time, Cold Jade City.
In the game, a day had already passed, yet the city’s wine transportation convoy showed no signs of stopping. At this moment, an additional Wine Pool, as large as a swimming pool, appeared by the Holy Vine Center Lake. The Secret Realm Stone was submerged at the bottom, emitting dim light, while wisps of steam rose from the water’s surface.
The three Druids chuckled: "It seems the pool can’t hold any more, so let’s activate the barrier and use up some of the wine. However, Warrior, I must explain that our capability is in maintaining the barrier, not directly assisting you in battle, so in the upcoming expeditions, we will remain here—the specifics of the battle will be up to you, Warrior."
Da Fei replied hastily: "Got it! There’s no need to trouble the three elders; you are too kind."
"Then, let us begin!"
The three Great Druids formed a triangle around the Wine Pool and began to cast a spell. A gigantic Magic Array covered the entire pool, causing the water level to decrease and steam constantly until boiling, while the Secret Realm Stone at the bottom emitted a dazzling light.
The Great Elder explained while casting the spell: "Warrior, do you see the wine steam permeating the entire space? That’s no longer simple wine steam but a kind of Barrier Energy purified by the Secret Realm Stone. When the energy is purified to a certain level, a barrier similar to the Wine God Domain will be born. We must create this barrier within the remaining day, so the wine must keep flowing!"
Da Fei nodded repeatedly: "The wine will keep flowing! Miss Daelir said that when the merchants in the capital heard someone clearing out their wine, they happily opened the Military Teleportation Array to deliver wine to me at their own expense, fearing that the goods would all be looted if the city fell."
The three elders chuckled: "They’ll probably be disappointed because, with you, Warrior, that won’t happen."
"You’re too kind, Elder!"
One elder asked: "But Warrior, the value of merely this one pool of wine is already a significant expense. Have you thought about what specific means you’ll use to repay it? If the debt isn’t settled, Warrior cannot complete the National War mission and return home."
Da Fei was amazed; he hadn’t expected this clause.
Da Fei then laughed: "How about looting the wealth of the Demon Race?"
The elder shook his head: "Supplies from the battlefield might not suffice."
Da Fei’s heart skipped a beat: "Are there Demon Race cities nearby?"
The three elders also seemed surprised: "What is the Warrior’s meaning?"
Da Fei smiled: "Only the Demon Race robs our cities; can’t we rob their cities?"
The three elders exchanged glances and then laughed: "Truly worthy of a Warrior, there surely are some behind the Pool of Radiance battlefield, though we still don’t know their exact locations."
Da Fei gave a nod: "I see."
Just then, Selvia approached quietly and said: "Captain, Deirdre has something to discuss with you!" (To be continued.
