"Sign it quickly. Once this opportunity is gone, it won't come again. There are no hidden clauses, rest assured!"
Gao Kai saw Tianya Kuangdao hesitating to sign.
The man's expression kept changing; no one knew what he was thinking.
"Whoosh... Thank you!" The man actually let out a sigh, a hint of gratitude on his face.
"Haha, we're comrades in arms from now on, no need for thanks!"
Gao Kai patted Tianya Kuangdao on the shoulder.
The man looked as if he were about to cry.
He regretted ever opposing the Ni Shen Alliance.
Thinking back, he probably would still have done the same if given another chance.
After all, everyone wanted to dominate the entire war zone by grabbing resources.
Look at the other three war zones; one guild was dominant in each.
Only the Northern War Zone had a three-way split.
The three main cities were ruled by three different factions.
Furthermore, he had been living in constant fear,
worried that if the Ni Shen Alliance advanced north, Jisi City's position would also be threatened.
He was also controlled by the Huang Corporation, completely losing the freedom of playing a game.
The Slaughter Guild had been established for so many years,
and had gone through numerous games.
At a turning point in gaming history, the full-dive VR MMORPG, Tiandao World, emerged.
The Slaughter Guild also met its demise because of it.
Back in those countless online games,
the Slaughter Guild, due to its vast influence and large membership, was the foremost power in any popular game.
Yet now, because they were in the same war zone as De Shen's Ni Shen Alliance guild,
they had been suppressed for two years.
Although they had earned more money than in any previous online game,
that was because Tiandao World was the only game globally. Now,
the professional players, non-professional players, and casual players were incomparable to any game from the past.
Now they wanted to leave the Northern War Zone, and they had to ally with the Ni Shen Alliance.
They would become an affiliated guild of the Ni Shen Alliance.
The former glory of Slaughter would cease to exist.
Tianya Kuangdao's heart churned.
The Slaughter Guild was a profit-oriented guild belonging to an alliance.
When the guild's leadership was passed to him, he thought the emergence of Tiandao World
would be his opportunity.
He never imagined he would have to be subservient.
However, it was fortunate that the fools behind the guild were only after money.
They didn't care about the guild's development,
nor did they care about being affiliated with anyone, as long as they made more money.
As long as there was money to be made, those guys wouldn't complain.
Now that De Shen was giving him such significant profit margins,
his influence would also increase in the future.
This was because this decision was made by him personally.
Also, he had used his own money to compensate the Huang Corporation.
Those guys still didn't know about his current actions.
However, despite the increased profit margins, they were now tied to the Ni Shen Alliance.
Now, it all depended on this war.
If they lost, he would still be ruined.
The Slaughter Guild would no longer belong to him.
If the Ni Shen Alliance won,
then he could return and show off. Who would dare to boss him around then?
He was gambling.
Gambling that his old rival would still be as confident as ever in dealing with him.
Signing the agreement, it was instantly recognized by the system.
"Go back and have your people stand further back, don't follow so closely to avoid being caught in the crossfire. When we need you... we'll call you!"
Gao Kai said this as Chu Tian had instructed him.
Tianya Kuangdao nodded, and Gao Kai returned to the war chariot.
...
"The Lian Jun Military Camp is still ten kilometers away!"
"Five kilometers!"
"They've deployed flying mounts! Visually estimated... a hundred thousand!"
"What do we do? Should we use..."
On top of the demonized evil energy chariot, Hou Tian received battle reports one after another.
Gao Kai suggested at this moment, with so many flying mounts approaching, should they deploy some flying pets to counter?
Chu Tian shook his head instead.
Flying combat pets were currently his trump card.
"They are just flying mounts; they can at most drop some things from the air!"
"But the range of a hundred thousand flying mounts is too vast. Even ordinary high explosives will cause significant casualties to us. Moreover, if we don't take them down, they will provide endless harassment!"
Someone pointed out the seriousness of the problem.
As they spoke, they could already see a dark cloud in the distance, carrying a killing aura, rapidly approaching them.
And until now, Chu Tian had not given the order to stop advancing.
If there was no better way to respond, the best course of action would be to set up camp in place.
Form a shield formation with shield warriors.
And have archers and other ranged professions engage in aerial bombardment.
Flying mounts, when flying in the air, change direction less agilely than combat pets.
Therefore, ranged professions had a chance to knock out their mounts when attacking.
If the opponent were flying combat pets, their flying altitude would be beyond the reach of ranged professions.
Furthermore, flying combat pets possessed super long-range attacks.
In Tiandao World, flying combat pets, after merging with their masters, were like bombers.
They possessed absolute air superiority.
Everything on the ground would be mere fodder.
If such flying combat pets could undertake dungeons, ground bosses would be ruthlessly crushed.
The dark cloud formed by a hundred thousand aerial mounts was getting closer.
Members of the Ni Shen Alliance were still advancing on the ground, not having received any orders.
Zhao Lei was getting anxious. He kept looking back upwards.
"What is boss thinking? If it continues like this, a single aerial drop might cost the lives of countless brothers!"
Everyone felt anxious, but their formation remained orderly.
When the aerial mounts were only 500 meters away from the Ni Shen Alliance's vanguard,
Chu Tian slowly turned his head.
"Mage Master, time for your show!"
Everyone's gaze instantly focused on the Mage Master.
"It's me again..." The Mage Master sounded reluctant.
"Stop the nonsense. I know you've equipped anti-air systems on the chariot!" Chu Tian glared at him fiercely.
"You... How did you know?" The Mage Master was surprised again.
"Hurry up!" Chu Tian urged again.
As for how he knew?
Did he even need to ask? He himself had suffered from this before.
The Mage Master, with a pained expression, pressed several buttons on the control panel.
The folding panels on both sides of the chariot made clanking noises.
Rows and rows of devices extended out.
These devices were like missile launchers.
Each row contained countless warheads.
"Are we really firing? This press will cost at least 50,000 gold coins!"
The Mage Master felt immense pain thinking about those 50,000 golden coins.
His demonized evil energy chariot indeed had powerful functions,
but it was also an extremely costly piece of equipment.
"Don't talk to me about money. I'm so rich, money is all I have!"
"Fire! If you dally any longer, I'll throw you out!"
Chu Tian flaunted his wealth in an understated way.
"Sigh..."
Beep beep beep beep...
The Mage Master sighed.
He also thought to himself, it wasn't his money anyway.
He pressed his fingers down, and a blaring alarm sounded.
The missiles that had extended out instantly shot into the sky.
A wave of missiles, a hundred in total, were fired.
These warheads, not far into the sky, split and exploded.
Each warhead contained at least a thousand extremely small warheads, even as small as sniper bullets.
Swish... Swish swish swish...
