286 Taking Action
After a short pause, Zelda continued.
“If that’s the case, then if there’s anything you can’t do, just tell me. I’ll do it.”
Once he finished speaking, Zelda looked at Su Ming before him and said, “Then we…when do we make our move?”
“The sooner the better, tomorrow it is.”
…
In the Far East of Silver Wind River Valley.
The base of the Lin family’s Guild.
This was a beautiful forest riverbank, and all kinds of buildings and facilities had already begun to take shape.
At least in this era of primitive society, the various facilities and buildings here were extremely advanced.
Compared to the ordinary players, this place was much more advanced.
The Lin family’s young master, Lin Tian, had the ID ‘Mighty and Domineering’ above his head. He was standing in front of his residence, looking at the scenery not far away.
Beside him were two players with slightly fawning expressions.
“How is it? Has Traceless Snow loosened up yet?”
Hearing Lin Tian’s words, the fat man of the two quickly said, “Not yet. She is very stubborn. Even though we’ve been disrupting his leveling rhythm, she hasn’t given up.”
Hearing fatty’s words, Lin Tian’s brows furrowed, and a look of displeasure flashed across his face.
“She’s got a strong personality. Since that’s the case, we’ll continue to torture her. I’ll see when she can’t take it anymore.”
“Hmph! I’d like to see how long you can be tough for going against my Lin family!”
After saying this unhappily, Lin Tian headed back to his residence.
As the young master of the Lin family, one of the top families in the great land, he had been living a smooth life since he was born.
Wealth, power, status, these were all things that he could easily obtain.
Since he was young, he had rarely met people who would disobey him.
But recently, after he received a mission to develop his power in this game, this idea was broken many times.
Many so-called closed beta players, after receiving his invitation, did not give him face and chose not to join his guild.
Lin Tian naturally couldn’t stand this.
Thus, he made the reaction he should have.
For players who weren’t that strong, he would just use the human wave tactic to kill them and collect their corpses.
As for the stronger players, he would simply send out suicide squads to disrupt their leveling rhythm.
After this combo, most people chose to surrender and join his Guild, or just quit the game.
There was also a small group of people like Chen Yixue, who were stubborn to the end.
Therefore, Lin Tian was very unhappy with her.
The so-called top five players on the player rankings would still have to kneel in front of their own forces!
Just as Lin Tian was imagining Chen Yixue prostrating herself in front of him or being forced to quit the game, a panicked voice suddenly came from outside the door.
“Not good! Not good, President! Something has happened!”
Lin Tian’s thoughts were interrupted, and he frowned in displeasure.
He took a deep breath and said coldly to the door, “Why are you panicking? Come in and talk!”
After hearing Lin Tian’s words, the people outside finally squeezed in, their chubby bodies looking a little flustered.
“Guild leader, bad news, something big has happened.”
The veins on Lin Tian’s brows twitched, and he grabbed the cup on his table and threw it at the man.
“Something happened, something happened. What the hell happened to you? just tell me!”
Lin Tian’s voice was clearly filled with anger. When the fat man who came to report saw his reaction, he naturally didn’t dare to say anything else and quickly continued.
“Our base was suddenly attacked by an unknown force, and the other party’s firepower is very strong.”
“Looking at the current situation, we can only hold on for another half an hour at most.”
“Our base will fall in half an hour!”
Lin Tian’s eyebrows twitched as he listened to fatty’s story. He was shocked and in disbelief.
“Is this a siege by some NPC force?”
Lin Tian was very clear about the strength of his faction.
Although when he developed this force, he did it for fun.
However, because of his foundation, the momentum of his power’s development was still quite rapid.
Among the player forces, there were many who could fight with him.
However, there was no one who could finish him off in half an hour!
Therefore, after hearing the fatty’s report, Lin Tian’s first reaction was to wonder if his base was being attacked by some NPC forces.
However, when the fatty heard Lin Tian’s question, he shook his head and then nodded.
Lin Tian’s eyes twitched. After taking a deep breath, he said in a ferocious tone, “You’d better hurry up and explain everything to me, or I’ll kill you right now!”
The fat man swallowed a mouthful of saliva and quickly said, “No, no, young master Lin Tian.”
“Looking at the situation outside, it seems like a player faction is commanding a large group of NPCs.”
“Looking at this, it’s very likely that it’s an NPC force that the players themselves have cultivated.”
Lin Tian furrowed his brows. “How many people do they have?”
Upon hearing this question, a trace of fear began to appear in fatty’s eyes.
“According to our estimation, the other side should have around two thousand players. As for the NPCs…”
Lin Tian took a deep breath. “How much is there?!”
Fatty’s body trembled, and he did not dare to hesitate anymore. “At least twenty thousand!!”
BOOM!
As soon as he said that, Lin Tian seemed to have been struck by lightning, and he was dumbfounded on the spot, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
When he finally reacted, he widened his eyes in disbelief and stared at the fat man in front of him.
“Twenty thousand…twenty thousand? Do you know what that means?”
“You’re telling me that at the current stage of the game, there are players who can cultivate 20000 NPC forces? Are you joking with me?”
When the fatty heard this, he immediately shook his head like a rattle and quickly denied it.
“Young Master Lin Tian, I wouldn’t dare lie to you about this! The number of people on the other side…it’s really that exaggerated!”
Hearing Fatty’s words, Lin Tian’s expression flickered for a while before he took a deep breath.
“Let’s go out and take a look.”
With that, Lin Tian strode out of his residence.
When he was outside, Lin Tian could hear the sounds of battle from the river bank.
