Chapter 181 The NPC's Proposal

At the same moment, in Changmao Fortress, inside the Tower of Stakes.

"Captain..." The expression on Reborn as King's face didn't change, but a hint of undisguised surprise flashed in his eyes. "Vice-Captain, he..."

"Ah... I saw it." Sanyu Strong Assault immediately interjected, knowing what he was going to say. "Things don't seem to be going as smoothly as expected..."

They both received the news of their teammate's demise in the team column at the same time.

"Yeah..." Reborn as King responded, "I'm afraid... he was the target of a concentrated attack by the enemy..."

"That's not surprising." Sanyu Strong Assault lowered his voice and whispered, "Shui Shi's marksmanship is very strong, but correspondingly... he lacks in other areas. In team battles, sharpshooters are always the priority targets... plus, he's teamed up with those two NPCs right now... it's only logical that he'd be killed."

"Indeed... Xi Xi Man and Du Du Mo can't provide him with the same level of support as we can, and relying on Crossing as King's cover alone..." Reborn as King shook his head, then raised his voice, changing the subject, "However... the strength of those two Changmao Celestial Officials is undeniable. I estimate that any one of them... could easily take on three members of Hell Frontline, excluding Feng Bujue." He confidently analyzed, "After all... judging from the match recordings, Hell Frontline mainly relies on that powerful summoned creature to win. That's why their preliminary data statistics are so impressive and they achieved a high ranking in the top ten." He paused. "But in essence... the only first-rate expert in that team is probably Feng Bujue. Wang Tanzhi can only be considered second-rate. If my calculations are correct... although Shui Shi sacrificed himself, Hell Frontline must have paid a considerable price at this moment, and they are very likely to have already summoned that 'Blood Corpse God' under pressure..."

"Hmph... if they don't use that trump card summon, they might be wiped out by two NPCs and Shui Shi; but if they do use the summon, then when they encounter the two of us and the other Changmao Celestial Officials..." Sanyu Strong Assault didn't finish his sentence, but forced a smug smile onto his face.

Reborn as King also nodded, trying to put on a knowing and unfathomable expression.

Although they were both very satisfied with their confident act of "strategizing," in the eyes of the viewers watching the match... their behavior was extremely embarrassing.

Because... while they were saying those words, very unfavorable changes had already occurred in Xiazhong Village for the Corpse Blade team...

...

"To... to think it would be over in an instant..." Xi Xi Man looked at the corpses strewn behind him, feeling lingering fear in his heart.

Du Du Mo's reaction was similar. He looked at Ruoyu with the eyes of someone who had seen a monster, muttering to himself, "I never thought... there would be such a powerful person among the Earthlings..."

As for Crossing as King, he now wore an expression as if he were constipated. It was really uncomfortable to be in a state where his emotions and fear were suppressed by drugs, but he was also agitated by extreme tension.

"Now... I can still give you two choices..." When Ruoyu said this, she had just finished using the [Heavenly Gate Four Steps Slash]. With the power of the [Xuanyuan Sword], coupled with the seventh level of [Mingyu Gong], she had killed all the miscellaneous soldiers on the other side in one move. "One, go back and hand over the other two Earthlings hiding on your side to us. Whether they are dead or alive doesn't matter..." Obviously, she already knew the current situation of Corpse Blade Second Squad. "Two... still death."

"Hmph... woman, who do you think you're talking to?" Hearing this, Xi Xi Man sneered, and his massive body suddenly erupted with battle qi. "If this great lord went back like this, how could I ever show my face in the city again?"

"Hold on!" At this moment, Du Du Mo suddenly stood in front of Xi Xi Man and said to Ruoyu, "This lady... the conflict between you Earthlings... has nothing to do with us." As he spoke, he consciously glanced at Crossing as King. "In my opinion... why don't we make a deal..."

As soon as Crossing as King heard this, he immediately glared at Du Du Mo warily and quickly retreated a few meters, distancing himself from the NPC.

"Our goal... is just that village ahead." Du Du Mo didn't pay much attention to Crossing as King's actions. He just looked at Ruoyu and continued, "We are not companions with those guys named Sanyu, Reborn, or whatever..." He spread his hands. "So... there's no reason for you and us... to fight to the death."

"Hey! Du Du Mo! You bastard..." Now, even Xi Xi Man turned around and glared at the Sivilized Star Lord, "As a Celestial Official, negotiating because you fear the enemy's power... don't you feel ashamed?"

"Idiot!" Du Du Mo roared at Xi Xi Man, "We've been used by those Earthlings! Can't you see that?"

"Wh... what..." Xi Xi Man was stunned for a moment. A few seconds later, he suddenly understood, and then he turned to look at Crossing as King. "Ah! I understand... you bunch of bastards!"

"Alright!" Du Du Mo stopped him, took a half step forward, and continued to say to Ruoyu, "Lady, I have a proposal..." He paused for half a second, then continued, "As long as you and your companions are willing to hand over that village, then we will fully cooperate with you... to kill that guy called 'Crossing as King' and his other two companions."

"You [beep]!" Before Du Du Mo could finish speaking, Crossing as King couldn't help but curse out loud.

But Du Du Mo still ignored him, only concerned with negotiating terms with Ruoyu: "How about it? Everyone gets what they want... and then we all go our separate ways, leaving each other alone." After saying that, he raised his hand and gestured at the pile of corpses behind him. "Oh... as for the deaths of these guys, you don't have to worry about it at all. There are plenty of these cannon fodder."

It has to be said... this NPC named Du Du Mo has very high AI. Although his character (rabbit) seems to be not so good... but in this apocalyptic environment, his approach is indeed justifiable.

If Feng Bujue were here at this moment, he might have directly reached an agreement with the other party...

Unfortunately...

But...

However...

"I see..." Ruoyu looked at the other party, a hint of disgust flashing in her cold eyes. "I've changed my mind..." On her sword, sword intent surged, and a momentum as if a storm was about to break made the surrounding air become heavy. "All three of you... stay here..."
