CHAPTER 519: CHAPTER 174: PLAYER DIVERSION, LORD EMERGES

But he didn’t think much about this issue, after all, when it will be completely open is still unknown.

By then, there will definitely be very powerful players appearing, and he may not necessarily still hold the highest command of the Player Corps.

As for now, with the blessing of Brain Overclocking, he still has spare capacity to command a scale of fifty thousand, but for any larger scale, it will be necessary to increase the level of the Eagle-Headed Demon and Brain Overclocking Soul.

Stowing away the tableware into the Space Bag, the Divine King looked up again towards the surging Black Tide in the distance.

During the expansion operation in the past two days, they have had encounters with three small factions.

The decomposition information shows that these three small factions are all Descending Forces.

The Divine King doesn’t see any issue with this.

He has a detailed understanding of the power structure in the Pale Continent Region.

Basically, any force with a bit of strength in the Pale Continent has joined the Reverse Tide Army, gaining the protection of the Reverse Tide Army, while those outside are basically Descending Forces.

Following the advance of the Black Tide, he discovered a very peculiar phenomenon.

All three forces view the other two as opponents, but whenever there is an obstructing force during expansion, they always redirect their firepower to attack the obstructing force.

Like the obstructing Descending Force "Ghost Residence Clan" just now.

Facing the active attack of their players, the Ghost Residence Clan’s resistance was unusually fierce, several times forcing them to retreat actively.

At this point, the Earth Thought Bully controls the Black Tide to attack.

Facing their players, the Earth Thought Bully completely ignored them, focusing entirely on devouring the Ghost Residence Clan.

Seeing the Earth Thought Bully begin to devour and grow, he, who originally intended to engage the Black Tide, also decisively redirected his focus, ordering the Warband players to continue attacking the Ghost Residence Clan.

The thought was, by killing one more, the Earth Thought Bully would devour one less.

Moreover, the Evil Spirit is always a poor monster, and compared to the equally astounding number of the Ghost Residence Clan, the yield from hunting and killing them is three times higher.

Whether for the sake of fighting the Black Tide or maximizing profit, the Ghost Residence Clan is the best target.

Clearly, the Earth Thought Bully thinks the same.

In his eyes, players can’t even be described as poor monsters, as fighting against them only leads to negative returns with no energy output.

Compared to the "fresh and delicious" Ghost Residence Clan, players seem more like a combat-capable waste that dissolves into the air upon death.

The choice between the two is obvious.

Though the Insect Race only focuses on killing, when faced with a devourable target, they too will redirect their firepower.

Although Insect Warriors are brainless, the mastermind behind the Insect Race is wise.

Behind the brutal bloodthirstiness lies an understanding of the balance between profit and loss.

Thus, a bizarre scene of three forces unanimously directing their firepower outward appeared.

But as long as the obstructing forces are cleared, the mutual brawl of the three forces will commence.

To seize the resources of the obstructing forces, they fight fiercely, dealing lethal blows to the other two forces.

But the Earth Thought Bully’s utilization of tactics has reached a superb level, and what he can do is minimize explicit combat orders, creating chaos and uncertainty in the war.

Any explicitly intended order is easily countered by the Earth Thought Bully, causing even greater losses to their players.

For instance, the previous assassin switch explosion was countered by the Earth Thought Bully.

Another example is when he changed the order for the frontline tank player, giving the Earth Thought Bully the opportunity to complete the retaliatory restructuring of the frontline tank unit.

There are many other similar cases.

He is simply no match for the Earth Thought Bully in playing tactics.

So his current combat strategy is only one, which is to make the most of the chaotic and disorderly trait of players, attacking the Black Tide through a semi-free war mode.

As a commander, he now functions more like a resource dispatcher.

Through the Eagle-Headed Demon Perception, he observes the battlefield and then reminds different small teams of players: health is not healthy and needs replenishment, beware of Evil Spirit surprise attacks, don’t forget to harvest when the opponent’s health is low, etc.

From unified command, he has turned into a reminder robot.

As a commander, having reached such a state, he sighed inwardly.

There’s a feeling of diligently studying, striving hard, only to be ruthlessly overpowered by a talented monster.

At this moment, a voice rang in his mind:

"Boss, we found a Sixth Generation Primordial (Primordial Screenshot.jpg)!"

The Divine King, his thoughts interrupted, was startled, and immediately used his consciousness to click on the screenshot, enlarging the image.

[Lord (Sixth Generation Primordial)]:

Hunting Level: 129.

Source Introduction: A Primordial Monster mastering the Lord’s characteristics, capable of increasing abilities through occupying territory (territory marks).

...

The image was sent by a guild brother exploring ahead.

The scene is in an area not yet swallowed by the Black Tide, with beautiful scenery, and the player responsible for the screenshot appears very tiny in the image.

The lord in the image is over a hundred meters tall, with a humanoid appearance, standing in front of a mountain peak overlooking the players below.

At first glance, it looks like a giant tower standing on the earth, with taut azure skin on a muscularly inflated body, the muscle lines on his body cast like iron, the undulations between muscles like mountain folds, or like tough armor, glowing with a strange dark light, his arms as thick as giant pillars.

The most notable feature on his body is the dense white beard on his chin, hanging down like waterfalls, giving a strong sense of the passage of time.

Hearing the guild brother say it is a Sixth Generation Primordial, the Divine King immediately perked up.

But when he clicked on the screenshot to see the Hunting Level, most of his enthusiasm was extinguished.

In his view, the Hunting Level of this Primordial Monster is simply too high.
