Now that the general combat policy has been determined, the follow-up action ideas will also be clear.
The word "union" sounds simple, but how to implement it and how to ensure that it can be finally realized still requires a lot of thought.
If it were forced, for example, in the simplest and most crude way, it would be possible to let Vivian take off her mask right now and call on players from both sides to join forces, but Liao Zixuan felt that the final effect would definitely be greatly reduced, at least not to his satisfaction.
Because in Liao Zixuan's view, the most difficult thing for players from Qiandao and Yanyu to unite is not Yanyu, but Qiandao.
There are already some frictions and conflicts between the two sides. Although it cannot be called hostility, they are definitely unhappy with each other.
So as a Qiandao player, after learning that his NPC actually came from Yanyu, he would feel a little confused. If Vivian rashly asks players from Yanyu to come and help Qiandao at this time, then What will the local players of Thousand Islands think?
It must be very uncomfortable.
Why do we still need people from Yanyu to help? You still don't believe us?
This idea is not surprising.
After all, the current Qiandao players, except for the first few days of the public beta, can be said to have had a smooth journey and made great progress since meeting the fox-faced witch. In other words, they are full of confidence and very inflated.
For those who are more radical, she may also have a "betrayed" mentality. For example, she is still more partial to Yanyu. She even thinks that Vivian deliberately wants Yanyu players to come to Thousand Islands and get a cup of their plot rewards. soup.
All these will lead to the damage to the image of the fox-faced shrine maiden who is loved by Thousand Island players through her own actions... No, it was the little girl who used her own actions to win the business.
Even though Vivian has never thought of it this way.
So to sum up, the key point is to make Thousand Island players aware of this crisis.
Only when they realize that this crisis is completely different from the previous ones, that they are unable to compete with their current strength, and if this continues, their base will really be destroyed, will they accept assistance from the bottom of their hearts. , even longing for support and a turning point.
The hardest part of a player is his mouth.
Liao Zixuan felt that there was a high probability that the Qiandao players at that time were still holding on for the sake of face, but in fact, in their hearts, they really didn’t hope that someone would come to help in times of need. Of course they did!
At this time, what Liao Zixuan wants is for Vivian to reveal her true identity and speak out on behalf of the Thousand Islands players, hoping to form an alliance with Yanyu and join forces to defend Thousand Islands.
In this case, let’s start from the original why, why? We don't need it!
It turned into a little girl who did not hesitate to reveal her biggest secret for them and to save Qiandao. What else is there to say?
Under the two plans, there was no change in what Vivian did, but the result was hugely different.
So not only "malice" needs to be packaged, sometimes even "goodwill" is needed.
This may be what Vivian lacks, but don't worry, after all, there is always a little wolf cub beside her protecting her like an old father.
At least...for now.

[Ding, you have received the B-level mission "Desperate Investigation" issued by "Fox-Faced Witch"]
【Desperate Investigation】
[Mission details: Thousand Islands now looks like a calm sea, but in fact it is already full of dangers. Not long ago, a drastic change occurred in the depths of the sea. Ancient things began to stir up the sea water, and the evil tentacles from the abyss have broken through the shackles. , this will be a catastrophe sweeping across Thousand Islands, and what you have to do is to find the glimmer of hope from this endless darkness]
[Mission goal: Take a boat, go to the designated sea area coordinates for reconnaissance, and return a report]
[Task reward: 5000 experience points, 1 to 3 silver coins, random "low-level" skill book of this profession]
Many Sakuragijima players have received this mission from the fox-faced witch.
Most of them were just like the big local dogs today, a little surprised.
"Holy shit! Brother Dog, is the reward for this mission really fake? Five, five thousand experience points?" The younger brother beside him couldn't help but exclaimed.
Five thousand experience points is definitely a huge sum of money for players who are currently around level 13 or 14. It can allow them to level up by more than one level directly, which is faster than their leveling speed in a week.
"Why is the wind blowing today? Why is our miko sister so generous all of a sudden... Uh, okay, although she is usually quite generous, but this time she gave too much, didn't she?"
Players who were surprised by the mission rewards began to speculate. Many people felt that it must be related to the "Abyssal Sea" plot that just happened. Unfortunately, only players from Yueyuan Island participated in this part. Players from Sakuragi Island could only rely on Check online posts to find out.
"Brother Dog, are you saying that our fox-faced witch is really the same as those people said on the forum? In fact, she is actually the Wei from the Flame Territory..."
Before the boy could finish his words, he was kicked by the person next to him.
As a closed beta player, Big Tugou suffered a lot at the hands of "Vivian" when he was in the Flame Domain. Even "to avoid Vivian" was one of the main reasons why Big Tugou chose Qiandao to speak out. one.
Now, if you mention this in front of a big idiot, you are looking for trouble.
"Okay, stop guessing! Hurry up and do the task!" The big dog waved his hand a little irritably.
"Speaking of which, the name of this mission is a bit interesting. It's called a desperate investigation. It seems like something big is coming."
Nowadays, the reconnaissance mission of the fox-faced witch, coupled with the countdown to "The Fall of the Abyss is coming" that the system has given players, has made Qiandao players feel like a storm is about to come.
But now many Thousand Island players are similar to this little brother. They are full of anticipation and excitement, and they can't wait for the three-day countdown to start right now.
They even conquered Sakuragi Island and defended the gathering place from the wave of cursed distortions. What's more terrifying? In the eyes of the players, this "Abyss Arrival" is nothing more than a bigger defensive battle.
Only the big native dog's brows still maintained their previous frown.
In fact, his subordinates misunderstood. Of course, a small number of big dogs have a headache with the name "Vivian", but more importantly, as a beta player, big dogs have experienced the Flame Realm. "The fall into the abyss".
That disaster scene….
No, they are much stronger now than during the closed beta, so what if they fall into the abyss?
Yes, yes!
Secretly cheering himself up, the big dog and his team, like other Sakuragi Island players, began to board small reconnaissance ships in batches.
Yes, players finally have a water mobile tool that can be controlled independently.
As the provider, it is Dazunxing, one of the Three Thousand Islands.
The first stop before releasing the mission to the players was that the little wolf cub and Vivian rushed to Yueyuan Island to find Liu Dao Luo Sui.
During the three days when the Fallen Abyss is still spreading in the sea, it can be imagined that there are still three days before the zombie virus breaks out. This is definitely the golden time for them to race against time.
The entire country of Thousand Islands is composed of islands. The final plan shape is an arc similar to the "waning moon".
This is definitely not a good thing for defense. Just imagine the shape of the waning moon, with long and pointed ends, and facing the sea entirely, which means that the creatures that have fallen into the abyss can climb out from any position on the coast and land.
The battle line was really stretched too long, and there were simply not that many manpower to support such a long battle line, so the little wolf cub took Vivian and asked the little girl to inform Liu Dao Luo Sui that the entire Thousand Islands would now enter an absolute state of emergency, and Immediately begin the evacuation of people.
Since the front is too long, it must be shortened, and it is inevitable to abandon the outermost small islands.
In the little wolf cub's plan, all the residents of Thousand Islands will eventually be moved to four or five large islands in the center, and then all the defense forces will be assembled to defend these islands.
This was also a strategy that Qiandao Sanfeng came up with after suffering a painful lesson in his previous life, but the little wolf cub only informed them in advance.
When Vivian told Liu Dao Luo Sui all this, as Liao Zixuan expected, the general opposite was extremely nervous and shocked at first, but then hesitant.
"I'm sorry, Vivian, although I believe you won't joke about such a big matter, but I can't decide the behavior of the whole country alone. Now that the Lord Water God is not here, it requires the consent of all three people. .”
"I believe you, but others..."
Vivian nodded to express her understanding and interrupted Luo Su's words.
"I understand, Luo Sui, so can you please take over our ship and let the strangers go to the deeper seas to investigate? That is the closest to the Abyssal Sea."
"When they bring back what they saw there... you'll understand."
Urging players to unite is a big thing. On the other hand, it is equally important to get local NPCs to start doing things quickly. Not everyone has an almost God-like perspective like Vivian, and not everyone can sense the fall. The breath of the abyss.
So the little wolf cub came up with this, the most efficient way to kill two birds with one stone is to directly send players to investigate near Yuanhai and get intelligence evidence.
The reason why they insist not to bring any aboriginal people who follow the Dazu is because both Little Wolf Cub and Vivian know that it is impossible for this reconnaissance team to come back.
Therefore, only foreigners who are not afraid of death and have the ability to "resurrection" are the only candidates.
And Liao Zixuan knows that the next players will definitely give up "resurrection in place" and choose the more punishing "rebirth at the birth point" of returning directly to Sakuragi Island.
Although I feel a little sorry for not knowing the Thousand Islands players who are going to die, Liao Zixuan also compensated them with the mission rewards, and he was a little more sinister, which indirectly saved the time of traveling back and forth in the middle.
Then, we just have to wait for the news...
...
...
"Wuhu! Boss, don't you really come and try it? It's so fun to sail a boat!" On the small reconnaissance ships, the players were having a great time.
They were all playing around, fighting for the operating lever, trying to enjoy the pleasure of sailing.
Only the big dog stood on the bow of the ship, silent and silent, looking at the sea in the distance and watching on the small map that they were getting closer and closer to reaching the mission goal.
"Okay, stop playing around. Bring over the mission prop responsible for recording images, the magic ball. I have a bad feeling. After we finish shooting later, we will return immediately. Do you hear me?"
"Yes, it's Brother Dog."
After one of the players took out the magic ball from his backpack, he probably played with it out of curiosity and used the functions inside. The magic ball contains the magic of recording images, which is somewhat similar to a camera, and naturally also includes the magnification of a telescope. Function.
When this player puts his eyes on the magic ball, then aims the magic ball at a distant destination, and looks over...
"Huh?"
He suddenly made a strange questioning sound.
Because through the telescope function of the magic ball, he could vaguely see some of the sea conditions at his destination, and he could only see black dots falling from the sea.
Is it raining?
When he increased the power of the magic ball and zoomed the camera to the limit...
No, it's not raining.
But... "fish"?
It turned out that those were not raindrops, but fishes jumping up and down one by one on the sea.
There are so many of them that they make it feel like "raining" across a large area of the sea.
Moreover, this group of fish seems to be repeating this action tirelessly, as if... consuming their restlessness that has nowhere to vent?
what's the situation?
Are the fish here going crazy?
Fortunately, this player does not have trypophobia, otherwise the level of fear would have doubled, but despite this, such a strange sight still gave him a chill.
Just when he wanted to quickly repay this to the big country dog.
Just by turning his head, the scene in the magic ball suddenly changed!
The rain stopped.
To be precise, all the black spots jumping back and forth on the sea surface stopped jumping back up after falling back to the bottom of the water at the same time.
They float shallowly on the sea, forming a black tide.
The reason is simple, because in the players' reconnaissance fleet, the fastest ship at the head of the team has entered their perception range.
Then the black water began to move.
It was really at a crazy speed, and it could be seen that it was like a tentacle, grabbing the prey at high speed.
The scout ship at the front may have also reacted and quickly turned around to escape, but before the ship could turn around, the black tide had already surrounded the ship, replacing the normal sea water under the ship.
The players on top felt as if their ship was being pushed up by something on the sea surface.
And then the next second.
thump! thump! thump!
One after another "fish" jumped up from the sea under the boat and rushed toward the players on the boat. From a distance, it looked like the black tide under the boat stretched out a hand from the sea. The reconnaissance ship was dragged into the bottom of the sea.
In the blink of an eye, the scout ship and its crew disappeared into the sea.
Soon, a screenshot was posted in the chat channel of the current area.
That's a screenshot of the monster's panel.
【Piranha Fallen into the Abyss】
[Level: Level 19]
[Race: Abyssal creature]
(Under the influence of the "Yama no Orochi" that became the mother body of the Fallen Abyss, it transformed from an ordinary fish into an extremely aggressive piranha that will devour all living creatures around it. It usually acts in a group and is one of the most powerful descendants of the Fallen Abyss. medium, the most numerous low-level species)
"..."
Looking at the black tide of piranhas on the sea surface, it is like a shark smelling blood and swimming towards the next nearest player's reconnaissance ship...
"Turn around, turn around quickly!"
