While Ouyang Shuo was pulling strings in reality to recruit talents for the territory, there was an unusual change in the group of overlord players in the Lianzhou Basin.
May 30th, Duanren Town.
The Lord of Duanren Town, Domineering Blade, led a group of core members of the territory and waited by the teleportation array. Not long after, five players walked out of the teleportation array and chatted with Domineering Blade.
The five people who were teleported were the Lord of Tianfeng Town, Dawn Wind Waning Moon, the Lord of Yishui Town, Ruoshui Three Thousand, the Lord of Gushan Mountain Town, the Lord of Guangshui Town, Riding the Wind and Breaking the Waves, and the Lord of Evernight Town, Black Cloak.
Including Duanren Town, the six territories in front of them were all the town-level territories in the Lianzhou Basin, except for Shanhai County and Mulan Town. Among them, only Duanren Town and Tianfeng Town participated in the Battle of Zhuolu. The other four territories had been promoted to first-level towns during this period of time.
With the disclosure of the immigration news, hundreds of millions of players poured into the game, which indirectly promoted the rapid promotion of each territory. A large number of third-level villages were promoted to first-level towns. From then on, towns would become the mainstream in the game.
With the influx of players, many overlords couldn't withstand the pressure and began to recruit players to settle in their territories. A large portion of the recruited players were relatives of the overlords.
A feudal lord would have seven aunts, eight aunts, and other direct and collateral relatives. In addition to distant relatives, colleagues, good friends, and other social relationships, it was already a very large group. In addition, there were friends of relatives, friends of friends, and friends of colleagues. These groups added up to hundreds of people.
According to the players' ideas, compared to struggling alone in the system city, settling in a territory controlled by their family or friends was much more free.
Unfortunately, the cruel territorial war in the future would completely shatter these people's beautiful fantasies.
Of course, the overlords weren't fools. In addition to recruiting friends and relatives, they also recruited all kinds of professional players. As for combat professional players, because there were too many uncertain factors, the overlords were more cautious when recruiting people.
When recruiting players, the overlords had to be very careful and not recruit people with ulterior motives. In his previous life, there were groups that used the opportunity of the overlord's recruitment to pretend to not know each other and join a certain territory in batches. Then, they would pretend to oppose each other in order to gain the lord's trust.
The lord thought that he had the pearl of wisdom in his hands and played the role of a mediator, but in reality, he was toyed with by others. In the end, the player group that he joined made him a mere figurehead, and he became a lord in name only.
There were too many examples of territories changing flags. After all, there were too many smart people in the China region. It was undeniable that the Lords were elites in the game, but in terms of social experience, they might not necessarily be comparable to newbies who had just entered the game. They were all elites who had been in society for many years.
Needless to say, there was also a professional swindler group, which was even more terrifying. As this group of people entered the game, the game would become even more chaotic.
Thus, when this whirlwind blew, Ouyang Shuo specially solemnly reminded his allies on the alliance channel that they must be extremely cautious when recruiting people.
There was no need to worry about Feng Qiuhuang among the allies. She had the support of the elites of the various large families, so there was no need for her to worry. There was no player group that dared to provoke them.
Although the Siege Lion looked unruly, he was actually a very meticulous person. The Siege Lion's foresight and understanding of the territory's construction methods made Ouyang Shuo gasp in amazement in many areas. Thus, Ouyang Shuo was more at ease with the Siege Lion. With Fat Tiger's assistance, the chances of him being overthrown were very low.
Towards this mission maniac, Ouyang Shuo was a little worried. This fellow was a typical player who was extremely powerful in the game, but had low emotional intelligence in real life. Ouyang Shuo vaguely remembered that in his previous life, there had been a power struggle in Dragon Seeking City, but it seemed to have been resolved in the end. As an outsider, Ouyang Shuo had no way of knowing the exact details.
Bai Hua and her Lingxi Town were also a rather special territory.
Many players had settled in Lingxi Town before, and most of them were guild members that had been established by the Lingxi Workshop in the previous game. Thus, in this wave of players, Lingxi Town suddenly surged with over three thousand people, pushing the population limit of Lingxi Town close to the ten thousand population mark of a third-class town.
In theory, Lingxi Town was the most dangerous. In reality, Ouyang Shuo was not worried. In his previous life, it had been sufficiently proven that Bai Hua had the ability to control these uncertain factors. Otherwise, Lingxi City would not have become an overlord in his previous life.
What made Ouyang Shuo's heart ache the most was Mulan Town. As expected, the upheaval in his previous life still befell the pitiful little girl, Mu Lanyue.
As it turned out, Mu Lanyue's parents were both scientists who had been working at the Mars base. In order to continue their research work and observe the upheaval on Earth ten years later, the couple decided to temporarily stay at the Mars base.
The Federal Government left behind a spacecraft and enough supplies for the staff of the Mars base for 20 years. After the researchers finished their observation tasks, they could board the spacecraft and rush to Hope Planet.
Mu Lanyue wanted to stay at the Mars base to accompany her parents. How could her parents be willing to let their daughter suffer with them? They firmly refused.
Thus, the little girl, who was about to embark on a journey alone, was in an unusually low mood. After Ouyang Shuo and the others heard the news, they specially teleported to Mulan Town and comforted her. Ouyang Shuo even promised that after arriving at Hope Planet, he would let Mu Lanyue stay by his side.
Her good friend's consolation finally made Mu Lanyue's temperament not change drastically like in his previous life. Apart from feeling a little down, there was nothing unusual.
Ouyang Shuo also finally understood why Mu Lanyue worked so hard to manage her territory in his previous life. Presumably, she wanted to lay a good foundation for her parents who would arrive later.
Because of this incident, Mu Lanyue became closer to Ouyang Shuo. Under Ouyang Shuo's suggestion, Mulan Town temporarily did not recruit other players to settle in its territory.
Back to the main topic, it was very unusual for the six lords of the Lianzhou Basin to gather in Duanren Town.
The Qiushui River and the Friendship River, which formed a Y shape, divided the Lianzhou Basin into three parts.
The V part of the Y shape occupied more than half of the Lianzhou Basin. This was the territory of the nomadic tribes. Apart from Mulan Town, which occupied the geographical advantage of the Southern Guard Pass, there were very few territories that could survive in this area. Even if there were players who established territories in this area, they were basically uprooted by the nomadic tribes.
On the east and west sides of the Y shape, there were more than 30 player territories. Duanren Town and Tianfeng Town were the two winners of the Lianzhou Basin in his previous life. They were located on the east and west sides of the basin, at the upstream of the Qiushui River and the Friendship River. Next to their territories were the two major lakes of the Lianzhou Basin, East Lake and West Lake. The geographical advantage of being near mountains and lakes was also one of the reasons why Duanren Town and Tianfeng Town were so successful in his previous life.
Yishui Town was located in the middle of the Qiushui River and was built next to it. The lord, Ruoshui Sanqian, was the only female lord in this gathering.
Gushan Town was located in the southeast corner of the Lianzhou Basin. It was built at the junction of the eastern and southern mountain ranges. It was also an important place for defense. Ever since the lord learned that there were Mountain Barbarian Warriors in Shanhai Town, he had the intention to contact the Mountain Barbarian Tribes and had already made some progress.
In the future, Gushan Town would be Shanhai County's direct competitor for the Mountain Barbarian Tribes.
Guangshui Town was located in the middle of the Friendship River. It was similar to Yishui Town. The lord, who rode the waves, was the young master of a medium-sized family and was somewhat arrogant.
Lastly, Eternal Night Town was built near the Eternal Night Forest in the northwest corner of the basin. The forest on the west side of Shanhai County was the outermost part of the Eternal Night Forest. Therefore, Eternal Night Town was the territory closest to Shanhai County.
The lord, Black Cloak, was also a cruel and merciless person.
It was not hard to imagine that these six territories occupied the most important strategic locations in the Lianzhou Basin, apart from Shanhai County and Mulan Town. They would also be the biggest obstacles for Shanhai County to dominate the Lianzhou Basin.
They had come to this gathering to form an alliance. The six people stayed in Duanren Town for a whole day and officially established the Heavenly Saber Alliance. It adopted a two-master system. The two masters were Tyrannical Saber and Dawn Wind and Waning Moon.
In addition, Tianfeng Town, Eternal Night Town, and Guangshui Town formed an iron triangle. Duanren Town, Yishui Town, and Gushan Town formed another iron triangle. When the Heavenly Saber Alliance was first established, it had already split into two factions.
The six members of the Heavenly Saber Alliance attacked from the left and right, forming a strategic encirclement around Shanhai County. Their goal was to work together to remove Shanhai County from the Lianzhou Basin. Otherwise, if this trend continued, there would be no place for them in the Lianzhou Basin in the future.
The Heavenly Saber Alliance was a typical offensive and defensive alliance. The alliance had agreed that before Shanhai County was eliminated, the alliance would maintain internal peace, and the allies could not attack each other. At the same time, in the future territorial wars, all the allies would work together to expel other territories that were weaker than them.
This was a typical case of the big fish eating the small fish, and the small fish being afraid, forming an alliance to fight against the big fish. At the same time, they did not forget to eat the small fish to strengthen themselves.
This kind of interesting situation would also be the norm in the future territorial wars. After all, territorial wars were cruel. It was either you die or I live. There was no room for negotiation.
Whether the future Heavenly Saber Alliance could realize their vision or not would only be tested by time.
Although Ouyang Shuo knew nothing about this undercurrent, he had already arranged for the Military Intelligence Department to collect information on these lord players. Once the time was ripe, Ouyang Shuo would not hesitate to crush all enemies in front of Shanhai County. (To be continued.)
