Xin Xiaoqi turned on the standard crystal processor that she had just received from the Godly Fist Union and logged into a small-scale local battle network. The green light beam immediately refreshed the list of quests and the execution conditions that were as overwhelming as a waterfall.
According to Xin Xiaoqi, A Boxing Champion and the leader of Liberty City were still in the 'preparation period for the final battle'. Both parties had sent tremendous invitation cards to the entire Land of Sins and recruited gangs and bandits to join their side.
A Boxing Champion had risen unstoppably in the Land of Sins in recent years. Most gangs and bandits had high hopes for him and were coming from everywhere. Therefore, A Boxing Champion was growing stronger day by day. He was not in a hurry to attack the city immediately but simply blocked the main road to the Bloody Plateau from Liberty City with Great Iron City, his mobile fortress, and besieged Liberty City with an army.
From the day he assumed the posture of attacking the city, the Heavenly Rails had cut off the supply of assets to Liberty City. It was obvious that they were suspicious of Xiahou Wuxin's identity as the leader of Liberty City. They would not reactivate the Heavenly Rails' supply of assets to the 'Elysian World' until the collision of the two giants was over.
Xiahou Wuxin was confined to Liberty City. He had tried to break out of the siege and open the roads to the outside world many times, only to be stopped by A Boxing Champion every time.
However, A Boxing Champion could not wait indefinitely, either.
So many unruly villains and bandits gathered together to eat, drink, defecate, and cultivate. The amount of resources consumed every day was astronomical.
Also, many bandits had territories where they made a lot of money in the first place. It was impossible for them to besiege Liberty City together with A Boxing Champion all year round.
On the other hand, the bandits often had conflicts with each other. The more gangs there were, the more intense their conflicts would be. They were mobsters in the first place. Once their numbers exceeded the limits of their control, it was possible that they would collapse on their own before they attacked the city.
Therefore, Xin Xiaoqi estimated that A Boxing Champion would certainly launch an attack on Liberty City in half a month to a month at most.
During this one month, both sides fought openly and in secret. Sporadic conflicts naturally rose and fell incessantly all day long, and this gave rise to all sorts of missions.
They could choose to be the guards of A Boxing Champion's camp and watch out for the attacks and sabotage from the leader of Liberty City at the periphery.
Naturally, they could also join the scouting squads or the assault squads at the risk of sneaking into Liberty City to investigate the enemy and sabotage the city.
He could also go to various parts of the Bloody Plains to find the wavering gangs and force them to join A Boxing Champion's camp.
They could even find the gangs that were loyal to the leader of Liberty City and sabotage and assassinate them as a warning, exactly like what Li Yao fabricated in Double Dragons City.
All in all, the "game" carefully designed by the Immortal Cultivators had a very high degree of freedom. There was not the slightest restriction. As long as one was strong enough, they could do whatever they wanted.
As the missions were completed, their evaluations would be higher and higher. After they made a name for themselves, they would be qualified to carry out missions of a higher level. In the end, it was possible that they would be noticed by A Boxing Champion and march into Liberty City together with him!
After hearing Xin Xiaoqi's introduction, Red Viper clicked on the list of missions on the light beam casually and asked with a smile, "What about the weapons, ammunition, and equipment?"
"A Boxing Champion will provide the most basic chainswords, storm bolters, and ancillary power armor."
Xin Xiaoqi opened her hands and said, "But for the magical equipment of a higher level or the weapons that need tailor-made, you will have to purchase them on your own! Every time an expert was going to attack an Elysian World, it would be a great event in the Land of Sins. All the gangs nearby would bring their best equipment and rarest secret treasures to trade. Therefore, there was a black market of an enormous scale in the place. Anything could be bought as long as one had money!
"It doesn't matter if you don't have money. You can either barter with your own magical equipment, rob the carriers of Liberty City by accepting missions such as looting and harassment, or gamble in the arena.
"Don't underestimate the arena here. Although it is temporary, because the experts of the entire Land of Sins have gathered here, the level is very high, and the competition is very fierce. Many unknown experts want to rise to fame in this place.
"All in all, the competition between A Boxing Champion and the leader of Liberty City is a great stage. All the ambitious people want to show themselves on the stage and leave their name in the boundless Land of Sins. As long as you are strong enough, anything will flow into your pocket incessantly!"
"How interesting."
Red Viper smiled and pointed at the two little fellows. "Hey, let's set up our camp quickly. Then, let's take a look at the arena. My two teammates are 'starving'!"
"Hehehehe."
Black Spear, the brawny man, rubbed his fists and grinned hideously. "I can't help but want to take a good look at what the so-called experts in the Land of Sins are made of."
"It is indeed interesting."
The mental devil smiled lazily next to Li Yao's soul, too. "What kind of 'war' is this? It is more like a 'game' that is carefully planned for the players of the Immortal Cultivators. It is hilarious that 'A Boxing Champion' Lei Zonglie and Xiahou Wuxin, the leader of Liberty City, have been manipulated by the Immortal Cultivators and reduced to 'props' in a large survival game despite their ambitions. Tsk, tsk, tsk. How sad, pitiful, and regrettable!"
"A very interesting idea has suddenly occurred to me."
Li Yao said. "Take a guess. Do 'A Boxing Champion' Lei Zonglie and Xiahou Wuxin know the truth?"
The mental devil was slightly dazed. "Since Xiahou Wuxin controls an Elysian World, and it is said that he has a lot of supporters in Manjusaka, the City in the Sky, perhaps … he knows part of the truth, right? But 'A Boxing Champion' Lei Zonglie should know nothing about it. He is still dreaming about attacking the city, thinking that he is the main character of the 'war game'! "
"That's right."
Li Yao said. "If we can find an opportunity to tell 'A Boxing Champion' Lei Zonglie and Xiahou Wuxin all the truth, what will it be like?"
The mental devil exclaimed in surprise and said, "Don't be rash. Both 'A Boxing Champion' and the leader of Liberty City must be the key surveillance targets of the Immortal Cultivators. Since the Immortal Cultivators are bold enough to play such a game, they are naturally very confident that they can control everything. For them, everybody in the Land of Sins, including the unparalleled experts in the Yuanying level, is nothing more than 'test subjects' that have been carefully refined, like cockroaches and mice.
"Even if you can instigate 'A Boxing Champion' and the leader of Liberty City to rebel together, I'm afraid that you will not be able to do anything to 'Manjusaka, the City in the Sky'. You will only expose your own existence."
"That does make sense."
Li Yao pondered for a moment and said, "However, I don't think that we are fighting on our own. Don't forget that there is still the mysterious' Starlight '. If a secret resistance organization of Cultivators has been active in the darkness of the Land of Sins for hundreds of years, I don't believe that they will not show up in such a grand occasion as the battle of Liberty City.
"Therefore —"
Li Yao smiled. Looking at the three arrogant, ignorant 'players' of the Immortal Cultivators next to him, he said casually, "Perhaps, we will have an opportunity to deliver a great 'surprise' to the Immortal Cultivators.
"Since you can turn the fertile land into the Land of Sins and turn living human beings into test subjects and chess pieces in your game, let me play the game of 'life or death' with you!"
…
In A Boxing Champion's camp, the enormous tent that blotted out the sky was bulging out of the stink of blood and sweat, like a hot air balloon that was about to soar into the sky.
The iron chains with sharp spikes intertwined into a narrow ball cage, which was then suspended in midair. The ball cage was also connected to high-voltage electric arcs. From time to time, dazzling sparks would surge out from the collision of the iron chains, turning into clusters of gorgeous waterfalls that splashed onto the bodies of the people below. The slight stinging pain stimulated the most primitive of bestial instincts.
"Kill them all!"
"Go on, you garbage!"
"Stand up. Stand up now, or I'll kill you!"
Countless muscular men with ferocious faces waved their hairy fists and roared furiously at the fighters in the cages.
"Ohhhhhh. 'Mad Bull' of the Black Flag Gang has taken down his ninth opponent. Ninth! Is there anyone else who dares to come up and compete with 'Mad Bull'? The prize pool has been accumulated to 120 standard boxes of spiritual energy! Come on, you bitches. Come on, all of you! Great. Finally, someone with guts is here. What's your name? Black Spear! Black Spear of the Red Viper Squad! "
In the middle of the boos, 'Black Spear', one of the three Immortal Cultivator players, took off his clothes unhurriedly. With a mocking smile on his face, he grabbed the electrified chains and crawled into the blood-stained cages.
"You are screwed."
Outside of the arena, Xin Xiaoqi covered her face and said to Han Te and the Coloured Glaze lethargically, "Let me tell you the truth. Somebody paid a lot of money to take part in the Battle of Liberty City. Now that you have been involved in the matter for no good reason, and you have even heard them introduce themselves, you will not be able to leave!
"In the future, you can only listen to them obediently and carry out missions with them. But their missions are all extremely dangerous. I estimate that you two brats will kick the bucket in no more than two days!
"However, you will not be able to escape, either. You cannot escape from the hands of the assassins from the Valley of Thorns. Once you are caught by them, your death will be even more miserable!
"All in all, you are on your own now. I really wonder how you two brainless idiots have lived to this age."
Han Te and the Coloured Glaze looked at each other and held their heads high. "We are not scared. 'Fiend Star' will protect us!"
"This trash can?"
Xin Xiaoqi rolled her eyes at Li Yao. Covering her cheeks, she lamented, "What an unlucky year. What have I done to deserve such an innocent weirdo like you in such a place as the Land of Sins?"
