Speaking up to this point, everyone already understood what was going on. Things were just as Li Huailin said. Landeville and the Divine Emissary seemed to have reached an agreement. In any case, the trial participants were to participate in the attack on the Undead City. After all, the designated time was before sunset, which meant that they only had one afternoon. The Undead City must have been sealed, so if they wanted to enter, they would have to help take down the city.
Of course, although this was the actual situation, they couldn't really say it out loud. After all, the Divine Race generally didn't interfere with the matters of the lower realms. So it was equivalent to finding an excuse. Although everyone understood the reason behind the trial, no one would actually say it out loud. After all, everyone who came here wanted to become Voidwalkers. So why would they expose the Divine Race's lies? Although the Divine Race's main goal was to become a Voidwalker, they didn't want to expose the Divine Race.
Of course, what Li Huailin was more concerned about was that the Divine Race's actions seemed to be a little too big. Yes, even if they found an excuse, anyone could see that this matter was a little too blatant. According to the Divine Race's previous practice, even if they wanted to do something, they wouldn't do it in such a "blatant" manner.
However, Li Huailin was actually quite happy. Previously, he said that he wasn't afraid of the Divine Race making a move, he was afraid that the other side wouldn't react. Li Huailin had been waiting for so many days. He was waiting for the Divine Race to react. Now that the Divine Race had reacted, it was too big. Of course, this was a good thing.
Judging from the current situation, Li Huailin could see that the Divine Race … seemed to be a little anxious. Judging from the current situation, it seemed like the Divine Race wanted to rope in the Undead. After all, Landeville was originally a competitor for the throne. Now that he had the Divine Race's support, it was very likely that he would directly ascend to the throne. And Landeville should have already reached an agreement with the Divine Race. He would definitely side with the Divine Race, and it was very likely that he would directly worship the Divine Race. This way, the Divine Race would naturally gain a lot of strength and power of faith.
Of course, this matter itself was quite strange. After all, for so many years, the Divine Race hadn't completely eliminated the Undead. But now, they suddenly began to intervene in the Undead's affairs. There must be a reason behind it. Could it be the result of tearing down the shrine in the past two days?
If this was the case, then Li Huailin was quite happy. However, he was worried that there might be other reasons. After all, Li Huailin wasn't clear about the Divine Race's movements. Their current actions might just be an illusion, so he had to be careful.
However, with the current situation, Li Huailin still had to ask the Oracle about it. Li Huailin didn't know why the Protoss gathered these undead soldiers and elites, so of course, he wouldn't stop them.
Of course, most of the others thought the same. That's right, the people who came here were basically none of the Undead. As mentioned before, the Undead didn't believe in the Divine Race. This time, they were looking for an Executor. To put it nicely, it was equivalent to an Oracle. But to put it bluntly, it was like they were working as laborers for the Divine Race. So why would people who didn't believe in the Divine Race come here? The Divine Race never said that an Executor could give them any benefits. Wasn't this just a spontaneous action of the people who believed in the Divine Race?
So even though everyone basically understood what was going on, no one said anything. Instead, they continued to discuss what to do. After all, this mission didn't have a limit on the number of people who could complete it. It was better for everyone to complete it together. After all, there was strength in numbers.
The core of the discussion was still Landeville. It was obvious that Landeville already had his own plan. Apart from working for the Divine Race, he also wanted to become the Emperor of the Undead. Everyone understood his purpose, so he must have a plan. And for now, Landeville wouldn't trick them. At least for now, their goal was the same.
Sure enough, Landeville also began to talk about his plan. "Currently, I've basically dispatched all my troops. There are about 3000 soldiers, and they are all elites."
Landeville was very confident when he said this. After all, he had been enduring hardships for more than 40 years. Landeville still had some resources. Because of their race, the Undead didn't have any problems with aging, so their combat strength was guaranteed. Also, Landeville seemed to have developed a lot of zombie beasts (the monsters at the foot of the mountain were actually abandoned after the failed development), so their combat strength was even stronger.
After introducing the combat strength of his side, Landeville also talked about the combat strength of the other side. First of all, the Divine Race had issued an oracle to attack the Elves. The Undead would definitely participate in such a major event. Although the Undead on the continent hadn't declared war on any country yet, and there weren't any large-scale battles, their troops had been sent to the front lines. In other words, their main forces weren't present, and they wouldn't be able to return in a short period of time.
However, the Undead weren't stupid. They wouldn't send all their troops, especially in the Imperial City. Of course, they still had a considerable number of garrison troops. According to Landeville, there were at least 20,000 of them. Of course, they were all elites, well-equipped, and their combat strength was unquestionable. Of course, they also had zombie beasts, and their numbers might even be higher than Landeville's.
"The difference in strength is too big." Hearing the ratio of 3,000 to 20,000, everyone felt a headache. Forget about the disparity in military strength, this was still a siege, okay? One had to know that Sun Tzu's Art of War stated that ten should surround and five should attack. But now, they didn't even have one-sixth of the enemy's troops. How could they fight?
"That's why I need everyone's help." Landeville laughed and said, "If I could take down the city by myself, why would I need you guys?"
To be honest, looking at Landeville's face made many people want to beat him up. But thinking about it, this guy was really lucky. If it weren't for the appearance of the Divine Race, he might not have been able to gather an army to rebel against the Undead even if he stayed dormant for another hundred years. And this time, Landeville really had a chance.
That's right. Although there were only 500 people on his side, many of them were people with real combat strength. They were the kind of people who could single-handedly turn the tide of the battle. For example, take Vozmont for example. A Saint-ranked combatant's power on the battlefield was basically equivalent to an atomic bomb. So, although no one knew how many Saint-ranked combatants there were in this group, there should be some.
Even if they weren't Saint-ranked combatants, their combat strength shouldn't be underestimated. In fact, there was no need for an army. With just these 500 people, they might be able to take down a city. However, compared to the NPCs, the players here were far inferior. Indeed, the levels of the current players were on the low side, and their combat power wasn't very high. The few players who managed to reach the Undead Lord City had only managed to do so because of their good luck. They never expected that they would be forced to participate in the Undead Lord City's attack. Was this a joke? To them, the Undead City was one of the main cities of the Dark Faction. How big of an impact would it be if they succeeded? Of course, it would be great if they succeeded. If they failed, they would be in big trouble. They might not even be able to enter the Undead City in the future.
To be honest, the Dark Faction players were reluctant to participate in this mission. After all, they hadn't seen any benefits yet. Moreover, if they failed, they would have to pay a huge price. Of course, there were also some players who weren't afraid of death. After all, the greater the risk, the greater the reward. Who knew if they could complete the mission? On the other hand, a few players from the Light Faction weren't worried at all. The Undead City was their enemy, to begin with. So what if they attacked the Undead City? They might even gain Honor Points. If they succeeded, they could even take a photo to show off on the internet. Therefore, Plashan and the others, who came with Li Huailin's group, were naturally willing to participate.
Seeing this situation, Landeville expressed that he would be responsible for helping the Oracle register the participants. After all, they had arrived on time to participate in the trial. When they found the Oracle, they would have to confirm their identities through the name list. Otherwise, the Oracle wouldn't know if they were participating in the trial. Coincidentally, Landeville noticed the hesitant expressions on the players' faces. So, he indicated that those who wished to participate in the mission could register themselves. Those who did not wish to participate could leave.
Speaking of registration, Li Huailin had a slight headache. He didn't know if the Celestials knew his in-game name. He also didn't know if he could use a pseudonym. After giving it some thought, Li Huailin wrote the name "Zhang Quan Dan" as a test. After writing the name, Li Huailin received a Quest Notification. So, it should be usable.
Looking at the Quest Notification, the Quest Notification only stated that they had to find the Oracle. It didn't state that they had to conquer the Undead City. As for the deduction of Experience and Money, Li Huailin didn't care. Of course, this Quest didn't have any special rewards.
Some players chose to leave at this time. It wasn't just the Dark Faction players. Some NPCs also chose to leave. Perhaps they were worried about the plan to attack the Undead City. Anyway, Landeville didn't stop them. He asked his subordinates to open the door. Then, he said to the others, "I'm going to the frontline now. If anyone wishes to enter the city, follow me."
