Lord Game: I Have 100 Million Talents-Chapter 117 - 87: Good Bros Shoulder Problems and Fight Enemies Together

Chapter 117: Chapter 87: Good Bros Shoulder Problems and Fight Enemies Together

"Wait, are you saying you were attacked by a Lord Player named ’Gale’?"

"And they were aiming to destroy your Lord’s Hall?"

Sparks flew from the barbecue grill at the streetside food stall. MC held a foamy mug of beer in his left hand and a sizzling, oily lamb skewer in his right. The air was thick with the aroma of meat and chili powder. With a smear of grease on the corner of his mouth, his eyes were filled with shock:

"Holy crap!"

"Isn’t that the kind of thing that’s all harm and no gain?"

"Taking out a Lord Player gets you 10 Dragon Drills at most, plus fifty percent of the remaining resources in their territory... Other than that tiny bit of profit, there are no other benefits."

"Plus, not only would he have to sacrifice a ton of his Divine Chosen Soldiers during the fight, but he’d also be hated by other Lord Players for such a disgusting move that endangers someone’s life. Who knows how many mortal enemies he’d make down the line."

MC put down the fragrant lamb skewer, and golden grease dripped down between his fingers.

"Honestly."

"If you’re really that greedy for some basic resources,"

"you’d be better off forcing other Lord Players to be your ’Black Slave’ tools."

"That way, not only can you skim all sorts of resources produced in the ’Black Slaves’’ territories for free every day, but you also get an extra Divine Chosen Legion to help you fight."

"Killing them outright just makes no sense..."

Suddenly, as if realizing something, MC hurriedly waved his hands and explained:

"Uh!"

"Tingfeng!"

"I was just analyzing it from the logical perspective of a typical bad guy!"

"I wasn’t saying that enslaving other Lord Players and forcing them to be your Black Slave tools is the right thing to do!"

"Please don’t take it to heart!"

Qin Feng grunted in acknowledgment, then picked up his beer mug. Their mugs clinked together sharply. He threw his head back, downed more than half the beer, then set the mug down and continued,

"Besides that,"

"the Player Alliance behind this ’Gale’ guy is also very strange."

"I clearly wiped out Gale’s main Divine Chosen Legion, demonstrating the power gap between us."

"But yesterday, a Lord Player with a game ID similar to his secretly moved his Lord’s Hall to the area around my territory and sent a bunch of scouts to probe my land."

"It looks like they want to try another Strong Attack on my Lord’s Hall."

"And,"

"it seems like they’ve gathered more than just one person."

"They’ve brought their entire Player Alliance."

MC frowned.

"Huh?"

"Moved his base?"

"What a scumbag move."

"Don’t tell me it’s some kind of murderer’s alliance formed by a bunch of asshole players who just like killing people?"

"But using a Rebirth just to kill a newbie... that doesn’t quite add up..."

Just then, Su Mumu, who had been sitting beside them quietly nibbling on a skewer, suddenly put down the bamboo stick. Her expression was serious as she interjected:

"Cousin."

"What if..."

"What if these people are trying to follow a... different development path?"

"Like... Evil God Faith?"

MC shot up from his plastic stool so fast that the full beer he was holding almost sloshed onto the tablecloth.

"Holy shit!"

"You know what!"

"You might really be onto something!"

"If they’re going down the ’Pledge to the Evil God’ route, then this whole bizarre killing spree actually makes sense!"

Hearing this, Qin Feng had a growing suspicion, but he didn’t jump to conclusions. Instead, he continued to gather more information from MC and Su Mumu.

"What’s the ’Pledge to the Evil God’ route?" 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Su Mumu wiped her fingers with a napkin and explained quickly, her tone cool.

"It means not aligning with any of the Native Powers and instead pledging allegiance directly to the Evil Gods who were exiled to the Void."

"This allows them to receive powerful Evil God Talents through the Blessing of the Evil God, as well as unlock the extremely strong Soldier Types exclusive to the Evil God Faction."

"Most importantly,"

"after pledging allegiance to an Evil God, they keep all their existing Lord Talents. They can also recruit other native soldiers and heroes from the Lord World who are willing to follow the Evil God Faith."

"The development speed of their own territory also becomes faster than that of ordinary players."

"Giving them an absolute advantage."

She paused, and her tone grew heavy.

"But the price is... they will be hunted down by all the Native Powers and Lord Players. The conflict that results is almost Undying and Unyielding."

"Moreover,"

"these Evil God Lords can’t hide their identity as ’Evil God Believers’ in the real world."

"The moment they appear in the public eye, they’ll immediately be hunted by Lord Players from all over the world. Some of the more hot-tempered ones might even go after their families and friends."

"It’s basically a heretical playstyle with extremely high rewards, but also extremely high risks."

"It’s almost equivalent to making an enemy of the entire world."

MC sat back down on his stool, placed his half-spilled beer mug on the table, and added:

"Tingfeng, doesn’t the ’Strongest Lord’ event start tomorrow?"

"After the Strongest Lord event ends,"

"it signals that all of us Lord Players in this Lord World have officially left the Newbie Stage."

"After that,"

"the ’King’s War’ event will begin, which requires Lord Players to fight each other."

"But this ’King’s War’ event isn’t about us just randomly fighting each other. It’s about helping the Native Power you’ve pledged allegiance to conquer the other Native Powers and become the sole ruler of this continent."

"Then,"

"once the final victor of the King’s War emerges,"

"our Lord World will enter its second phase. The level cap for Extraordinary Professions will be raised from 25 to 50, and 2-star Extraordinary Soldier Types will be unlocked."

"It’s kind of like the Spiritual Energy Recovery you see in novels..."
