The next day.
Yan Kuangshan hummed a tune happily. He was too lazy to act and showed unabashed gloating over Mu Che's situation.
Until he saw a soldier of the Silver Tragedy Army walking towards him.
"A meeting? What a meeting! It's so annoying!"
Yan Kuangshan's loud voice directly spread throughout half of the village, including the six city lords and Mu Che who had gathered in the conference hall.
Mu Che, who was sitting in the main seat, looked calm, as if he didn't care at all about the dissatisfied and even provocative words.
After Yan Kuangshan entered the conference hall and sat down, he stood up and said:
"We can start preparing for the final battle."
Several city lords below began to look at each other, not sure whether the other party meant to prepare for a decisive battle or to make a bold move.
But Mu Che suddenly changed his voice and said:
"I believe everyone here should know that we must win this battle, which also means that we have no way out, unless someone with ulterior motives wants to take advantage of this opportunity to gain some shady benefits!"
When he said the last sentence, he directly set his sights on Yan Kuangshan.
Yan Kuangshan said helplessly:
"Lord Zhou Mu, are you trying to hold me back? Are you going to take the blame this time?
It's better to just say that the Ten Thousand Poison Palace opposite has secretly defected to our ghost market.
Including the rebellious Stone Palace Master has already bowed at the feet of Lord Ghost. "
Mu Che took a deep look at Yan Kuangshan, but did not respond. Instead, he changed his voice again and said:
"Currently, we have 30,000 silver-trapped troops in our hands. The total strength of the city lords is 45,000. The remaining Jianghu forces plus the reinforcements from Wangyou Ghost City total 15,000.
And what is needed next is to divide the troops! "
Without allowing the objections of the city lords present, Mu Che named the four city lords in turn and said:
"The four of you will lead a total of 25,000 people under your command to cooperate with the 20,000 soldiers of our Silver Army and move towards this location in batches."
After everyone watched Mu Che point to a location on the map, they basically understood Mu Che's intention.
It was obvious that the Master Zhou Mu had been forced into a desperate situation and was about to encircle him. He even ignored the loss of troops and used this to swallow up all the Ten Thousand Poison Palace and its reinforcements in one fell swoop!
"The poisonous mist of the Ten Thousand Poison Formation is still spreading. Your transfer will be based on the complete elimination of the poisonous mist. As long as I am still in this village, I will not arouse the suspicion of those outside."
Seeing that someone was about to speak, Mu Che took the first step to block what the other person was about to say.
"Besides, the biggest worry during the siege is that the prey will escape early. If it is discovered that a top master at the Grand Master level is not in the Palace of Ten Thousand Poisons, it means that one of us has leaked the plan.
I will truthfully inform His Majesty of the suspected target candidates. "
When he said the last sentence, Mu Che stared at Yan Kuangshan again, and even pointed at his nose and said, you are that little traitor!
However, his behavior made Yan Kuangshan frown slightly.
Mu Che even doubted himself, and even revealed his purpose in advance. Wasn't this because he was rushing to report the news to himself.
As for Mu Che's warning to report to Emperor Xuan, Yan Kuangshan curled his lips and didn't take it seriously at all.
Now that he has Qin Fan at his back, it is equivalent to having Wangyou Ghost Market to take care of him. Don't forget that the one who occupies the place of residence in the Ghost Market is the eldest princess.
Without evidence, just a small false accusation will not have any impact on Yan Kuangshan.
And now Mu Che is the first target of Emperor Xuan's surgery, so what he says can have a lot of effect in the court.
Yan Kuangshan then fell into deep thought and began to guess why Mu Che did this. After all, Mu Che should have a very clear understanding of his own situation.
Mu Che's eyes were already looking at the city lords present and said:
"Three days!
I will complete the batch transfer of 20,000 silver trapping troops and four city main armies within these three days. I will issue some high-paying tasks to the Jianghu forces to distract their attention.
At the same time, you must also be prepared for the decisive battle. After all, we cannot delay it any longer.
And next (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 0400 Compromise
Ask City Lord Zhang, City Lord Chu, and City Lord Yan to suppress the spread of the poisonous mist. I will give each of you a five-poison bead, which can be used to weaken the Ten Thousand Poison Formation with the help of military force. "
Yan Kuangshan looked stunned when he heard that he was called out again. Mu Che calmly placed a bead in front of him and reminded him kindly:
"Don't worry, I didn't do anything shameful.
Even if I wanted you to die, I would not choose this time. After all, you are a good assistant who is here to help me conquer the Ten Thousand Poison Palace. "
These words made the originally relaxed atmosphere gradually become more solemn.
Yan Kuangshan laughed and said:
"Of course I believe in Brother Mu's character. The conflicts between the two of us in the past two days are not known to everyone, but the leaders of the forces outside have heard about it to some extent.
If I died suddenly, Brother Mu would definitely be the first suspect.
Especially the people in the entire Jiuzhou area are waiting for us to solve this critical juncture in the Ten Thousand Poison Palace. Once this scandal is exposed, I am afraid that Brother Mu will follow his brother to join him in Huangquan. "
Then Yan Kuangshan directly picked up the Five Poison Pearl and played with it in his hand. Feeling a special aura coming from it, he couldn't help but secretly feel surprised.
At the same time, he also guessed Mu Che's plan.
Before, he had been thinking like a Jianghu person, and all he thought about was that if I cheated on you, you would stab me back with a knife, and we would fall in love and kill each other to the end of the world.
But considering Mu Che's situation and identity, he suddenly realized that whether Wangyou Ghost City or Wangyou Ghost City was secretly plotting against Mu Che was not that important to him.
Or rather, it should be said that this level of priority is not as important as solving the Ten Thousand Poison Palace as soon as possible.
For Mu Che, the pressure he had to bear came from all aspects. Even if he knew that there was a third party's plan, he could not waste time on scheming with the third party at this critical juncture.
Although he was angry and furious, he even wanted to grab Yan Kuangshan and slap his big face!
But that must wait until the Ten Thousand Poison Palace is destroyed.
Destroying the Ten Thousand Poison Palace means that the pressure on the court will not be so great, and he will not always occupy the focus of this land of Kyushu, and his reputation will also bring a certain bonus.
Therefore, even if he knew that there was one, or even multiple troublemakers, he could not delay the time to destroy the Ten Thousand Poison Palace.
For this reason, he no longer cared about his own losses, put aside all kinds of calculations, and directly brought all his troops forward for a head-on confrontation.
The previous warning to Yan Kuangshan, or rather a compromise, showed that he did not reciprocate and hoped to keep Qin Fan, who he thought had been causing trouble on the other side.
So he took the initiative to open up a way out and wanted to use Yan Kuangshan's mouth to drive the broom star away quickly.
In this way, he can win the war with smaller losses. After all, it will be difficult for a top master in the Grand Master realm to fight to the death.
If there were three, it could be said that the difficulty of this battle jumped directly from easy mode to hard mode. At the same time, he also had to worry about the five thousand troops in Yan Kuangshan's hands, the two thousand Red Phoenix Army and the eight thousand machine puppets. military.
Therefore, after a night of hard thinking, even if Mu Che thought that he had been smeared with shit by the other party, he had to send him away with a smile.
After all, victory in this battle is the key!
For this reason, he took the initiative to compromise after some psychological struggle. As an old man who has been in official circles for decades, he knew very well which choice was more beneficial to him.
Even if this makes him feel frustrated, as long as he gets through this, everything will be fine.
He has enough determination to suppress all kinds of resentment, and enough patience to have the last laugh, just like now.
"Brother Yan, this siege is very critical. If any prey escapes early, it is very likely that we will fail.
But even if the rats in Ten Thousand Poison Palace ran away, where would they go? It would be interesting if someone really braved the world to take them in.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, as long as the people who should be there are still there, that's enough.
After all, we have only one goal together, which is to destroy the Palace of Ten Thousand Poisons, not the Sword Forging Hall, the Star Alliance, or the Forgotten Ghost Market. "
Yan Kuangshan looked at him with a look on his face (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 0400 Compromise
Sincere Mu Che, his rather rough facial features immediately changed, and he said a little aggrievedly:
"Brother Mu, your example is not a good one. We are also a big force in Nanxuan Prefecture. Compared to the Sword Forging Hall, which has done nothing, our Ghost City has sent elite soldiers and generals to help.
In the previous test battle, the two thousand machine puppet army was destroyed and you haven't let me bear the losses yet. "
Then his expression changed again, pointing at the city lord who counted the battle losses last night and said:
"By the way, the two thousand puppet army was destroyed on the battlefield because of Brother Mu's stupidity... Bah, it was a less wise command from Shenwu.
Those Jianghu people have all lost money. We, a powerful force like us, can't explain it away in just two sentences.
You kid, hurry up and write it down. After converting it into resources, I will ask Mr. Ban to come and get it right away. "
The city lord who was pointed at by Yan Kuangshan did not dare to scream. The one who dared to fight with Yan Kuangshan had been taught a lesson by several of his big rivals, and later died on the battlefield.
Then he quietly glanced at Mu Che. When he saw him nodding slightly, he quickly agreed to Yan Kuangshan, took out a small book and began to calculate the value of the two thousand machine puppet army.
But seeing Yan Kuangshan starting to make jokes again, Mu Che had no intention of continuing to play this kind of verbal test with this real person pretending to be stupid.
As soon as the meeting was dismissed, the city lords prepared the arrangements according to Mu Che's arrangements. Yan Kuangshan informed Ada and others about the meeting contents, and then Yao Wanqing notified Qin Fan.
At the same time, players who were waiting for the third ring also received the task list they had been thinking about.
[Faction chain mission has been triggered - neither enemy nor friend (3)]
[Grade: Xuan Grade High Grade]
[Task description: Because of your efforts, the emergence of the Poison Punishment Alliance has continued, and the chain of tasks will not only stop at the third ring.
I believe that you have now understood the meaning of the words "neither enemy nor friend". Remember that your position is always in Wangyou Ghost City! 】
[Task requirement: When the decisive battle breaks out, protect all the forces that have joined the Poison Punishment Alliance as much as possible, and rewards will be issued based on their damage. 】
[Task reward: For every man in the Poison Punishment Alliance who has been damaged within 10% of the damage, 30,000 experience points will be awarded!
The Poison Punishment Alliance damages 10% to 30% of its manpower and rewards 20,000 experience points!
The Poison Punishment Alliance damages 30% to 50% of its manpower and rewards 10,000 experience points!
The Poison Punishment Alliance damages 50% to 70% of its manpower, and will be rewarded with 5,000 experience points! 】
[Note: When more than 70% of the Poison Punishment Alliance's manpower is damaged, it will be regarded as a serial mission failure, and subsequent missions will be terminated directly! 】
[Note: Rather than using your fragile little body to protect those forces, you should learn to use your verbal skills. After all, you are the most professional when it comes to paddling! 】
"Sure enough, the development trend of the series of tasks has changed!" [Beautiful Beauty] flashed a light in his eyes.
According to her guess, these Jianghu forces should have been used as cannon fodder in the decisive battle, and they would even let their players take the initiative to push these cannon fodder to death, and the more people died, the richer the rewards would be!
But when the Poison Punishment Alliance appeared and gradually turned against Mu Che, the controller of Nanxuan Prefecture, then the value of these power leaders' survival was actually higher!
The conflict between the court forces represented by Mu Che and the Jianghu forces that broke out here will continue.
Unless one party takes the initiative to compromise, Mu Che's bowing to Qin Fan is the limit. If he continues to bow his head to these disdainful people, it would be better to kill him directly.
As for the Poison Punishment Alliance, I believe that when interests have blinded them and this confrontation has become more severe, they have no choice.
The role of the players is to help the Poison Punishment Alliance strengthen this belief. As long as they are still passionate about money, fame, and power, they will not be willing to shrink back.
Especially the several elders who currently control the Poison Punishment Alliance. These are the best candidates with ambition, courage and other characteristics selected by players after various analyzes and even the intelligence of the ghost market.
This type of people will not let go of any opportunity. They prefer gambling to making steady progress, and the victory of a big gamble is worth ten years of development, which makes them even more obsessed.

Chapter 0400 Compromise
"The Poison Punishment Alliance has taken the right step, but we must be more careful." [Qian Zong Mie] said after thinking for a while, "Don't underestimate any NPC!"
Several veteran players present nodded in unison. Seven game months had passed since the first test, and countless bloody examples had taught them how to behave.
“Our biggest advantage is the background of Wangyou Ghost Market, and now the boss’s Wolong Group and the Six Land Selling Demons are building caravans unique to our players.
With the help of our friendly relationship with the NPC of our own power, we can get a lot of profit from it, and use part of it to fish for the Poison Punishment Alliance to ensure that this move will not leave the chessboard. "
[Happiness is the end] These words shocked several people present. They came forward and looked at Sister Happy carefully. Their expressions seemed to be that they suspected that the other party's account had been hacked.
"That's what the boss told me!" [Happiness is the end] said dissatisfied, looking at each of them as if they were despising her IQ. With her smart brain, she could come up with this trick, right?
All the players present were stunned, unable to realize for a moment who the boss that Sister Happy was talking about.
Until [Add some force] who belongs to the same player camp said:
"Niu Niu is afraid of difficulties."
They just started to discuss it.
"By the way, where has Brother Niu been lately? He hasn't been seen since before the martial arts conference."
"I heard that he went out to play with the man from our ghost market, and then disappeared for a hundred chapters."
"There are only seventy chapters gone! It's less than a hundred!"
"I seriously suspect that he has decided to practice hard for a hundred years and then bring back a Dragon King!"
