In a certain hall.
Several voices were whispering, which slowly developed into an argument.
"After our two families join forces to destroy the Chen family, the Tonghuang clan should take 65% of the profits, and your Mugu clan can take 35%," the somewhat tough voice said.
"35%?"
Many pairs of eyes looked at them as if they were looking at an idiot. One of the Protoss said with a cold face, "Is this the sincerity of the Tonghuang clan? Do you think we are idiotic beggars?"
He said again in a cold voice, "My Mugu family will get at least 55%!"
"Impossible."
The emotionless voice said, "There are as many as six masters of the Shenguang Order in the Tonghuang clan now. The Mugu clan only has four. The Tonghuang clan is the well-deserved number one clan. With our strength, we should get more than 60%. You don't have the strength, so you can only follow behind and eat some bones."
His voice gradually became quite oppressive. "Stop being so picky. Originally, we wanted to take 70%, but seeing that you guys agreed to help, we reluctantly gave you 5%. This is the final plan. If you guys don't want to cooperate, then forget it. We can do it ourselves anyway."
"Hehe ~"
The representative of the Mugu family sneered again and again. "So what if there are two more masters of the Shenguang Order? Some time ago, when the various political parties revolted, the masters of the Tonghuang clan were the most ferocious in suppressing them, but they also suffered the heaviest losses. Out of the eight law enforcement halls, four of them were completely annihilated. Less than half of the practitioners of the remaining clan remained. They could only rely on the Shenguang order to keep up appearances. "
"There are two reasons for cooperating with the Mugu clan this time. Firstly, you want to use our clan's experts as cannon fodder. Secondly, you want to guard against us stirring up trouble behind the scenes. You can only pull a warship along with you."
"Moreover, although the Chen family is rich, they don't have the habit of saving money. Every year, the remaining savings are all used to strengthen the fortress of the Chen family. After decades of operation, the fortress has long been impregnable. To break through such a fortress, even a practitioner from the Shenguang Order might not be able to do it, let alone a practitioner with an ordinary level of practice."
"It must be because you don't have 100% confidence in taking down the Chen family, and you're even more worried about losing too much, so you pulled the Mugu family along to take action! Yet, with such an attitude, you want us to risk our lives for only 35% of the profits. Haha, everyone, aren't you dreaming? "
The representative of the Mugu family saw through the purpose of the Tonghuang clan at once and couldn't help but make sarcastic remarks.
However, the other party did not feel the slightest bit awkward.
"So what?"
The elder of the Tonghuang clan said faintly, "It's just some middle and lower level practitioners. As long as the Tonghuang clan puts up a recruitment notice, we can have as many as we want. We'll instantly make up for the number of cannon fodder. There's no shortage of manpower."
"Recruit? Should he try to recruit them? Let's see how many people we can find. "
The mocking voice said. After the chaos of the 'political parties', countless middle and lower level experts of the various families had fallen. Now, they were all in need of manpower, causing the supply of foreign elders to be in short supply. Unless they offered extremely tempting benefits, there were not many cultivators who would come forward to be recruited.
Moreover, in the chaos of the political parties, a large number of cultivators joined the political parties and were later slaughtered by the joint forces of the various clans. In the end, those who survived were likely to have a grudge against the various clans. Once they were recruited, there was a possibility that they would attract enemies and become unpredictable landmines.
Therefore, it was not a good idea to recruit people.
Cough, cough, cough ~
The elder of the Tonghuang clan finally revealed some of his original confidence. Of course, his words were still tough, "It's just the Chen family, there's no need to muster such a large force. With the strength of the Tonghuang clan, it's easy to destroy them. This time, we're giving you a rare opportunity. If you don't seize it, you'll be the ones who regret it in the future."
"If that's the case, then there's nothing to talk about. We'll go back now."
Several representatives of the Mugu clan quickly got up and said without turning their heads, "The descendants of the Chen family have publicly stated that to break through the Chen family's fortress, they need to kill five masters of the Shenguang Order, or about 10,000 practitioners of the Jushen Order and the Yuanying Order in order to completely take it down … This is almost the full strength of the Tonghuang clan. Since your clan intends to go it alone, then prove whether the words of the descendants of the Chen family are just rumors."
"If it's not a rumor …"
He smiled meaningfully and said, "The title of the 'first family' will belong to the Mugu clan, hahaha ~"
"Wait!"
The elder of the Tonghuang clan got up and called out to him. His face became gloomy and ugly, "Don't go yet, let's continue to talk."
He was very angry in his heart.
The damned Mugu clan had actually guessed their thoughts!
They knew that they were a little worried about the Chen family's fortress.
In fact, how strong the Chen family's fortress was and how fierce the attacks it could withstand had always been a legend and a mystery.
Legend had it that any practitioner below the Shenguang Order who broke into the Chen family's fortress without permission would die.
Regarding this, many practitioners who tried to break into the Chen family's fortress and steal some secrets or treasures used their lives to tell the world that this was true, that it was really dangerous inside.
It could not be said that all the intruders below the Shenguang Order were dead, but none of them came out.
In addition, perhaps in order to deter all the forces with bad intentions, the descendants of the Chen family living in the Chen family's fortress often bragged on the Internet and filmed some videos to promote the strength of the Chen family's fortress. They also released all kinds of boastful and heroic words.
"The strongest fortress from ancient times to the present."
"Unless many masters of the Shenguang Order join forces to attack, no matter how many practitioners come, they will definitely die."
"Do you see this laser cannon? Its power can easily cut through the immortal body of a master of the Jushen Order."
"The entire layout inside is similar to a large tower defense base. There are no blind spots and no weaknesses. We can only choose to attack by force."
"Probably more than 1 million people of the Yuanying Order will die before we can break through this fortress."
"Now, even if they are from the Shenguang Order, they can forget about leaving here alive!"
"…"
On the Internet, the descendants of the Chen family wantonly bragged.
These contents were noticed by the elites of the various families who coveted the Chen family's "fat meat."
The corners of their mouths could not help but twitch. The greed in their minds dissipated a lot.
"Are you kidding me?!"
The elder of the Tonghuang family was very unhappy. His face was full of violence and murderous intent. "No matter how hard the turtle shell is, I will break it for you! How dare a mere human boast so shamelessly? "
Considering that after the end of the political parties' chaos, the Tonghuang family's middle management was seriously disrupted and the losses were not small. The only way to stabilize their position as the top family and maintain their original momentum was to digest new interests and strengthen the family's interests.
Therefore, he set his target on the Chen family.
But they could not ignore the bragging of the Chen family. They were worried that they would suffer losses that would outweigh the gains.
The safest way was to rope in a powerful and threatening ally to share the risk.
But they did not expect the Mugu family to have such a big appetite that they were not satisfied with 35% of the interests.
"40%!"
The elder of the Tonghuang family said, "We can't give more. If you don't want to do it, we will find other families. The strength of the Black Lion family is not much inferior to the Mugu family."
The comprehensive strength ranking of the Black Lion family was around three or four. There were two masters of the Shenguang order in the family, and there were many middle and lower level masters.
"Then you go to the Black Lion family."
The representative of the Mugu family was unmoved. "55%, we have to take at least 55%! The Black Lion family is indeed a good cannon fodder, but to swallow the Chen family, the Tonghuang family will definitely pay a certain price. You will lose 20% to 30% of your strength, and even one or two masters of the Shenguang order. At that time, not only will the position of the top family be empty, but the strength of the Black Lion family, which is ranked third, will also be seriously weakened. I am happy to see such a scene. "
Hearing this.
The elder of the Tonghuang family's face was as black as charcoal.
But he still did not dare to gamble. The power in the Chen family's fortress was not as strong as the rumors said.
If he made a mistake, the Mugu family would really be the fisherman who benefited.
"50%!"
He gritted his teeth and said, "50%, but you must provide a sufficient number of people!"
"Oh ~"
Seeing that he had relented, the representative of the Mugu family smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and said, "We have a deal."
In this way, after several days of negotiations and quarrels, an end was drawn.
A short-term alliance to divide up the Chen family was thus formed.
…
Shanghai City.
Inside the villa.
The contents of the private conspiracy between the Tonghuang and Mugu families were clearly presented in front of Chen Jin and several of the Chen family's descendants.
Seeing that the agreement on the screen had been reached, both sides let out cold and sinister smiles.
Several of the Chen family's descendants were trembling with anger.
"Great Ancestor, this is simply not putting the Chen family in their eyes! They are seeing us as fish on the chopping block. "
"Do these guys really think that the Chen family is so weak that they can bully us at will?"
"Don't look down on the Chen family! I guarantee that you will not be able to return. "
However …
After venting their anger, they calmed down. Some people began to feel nervous and worried.
They looked at Chen Jin one after another and raised various questions.
"Great Ancestor, what should we do now?"
"Great Ancestor, the Chen family's fortress is incomparably powerful. There are countless mechanical weapons inside. We should be able to win, right?"
Chen Junfeng pulled Chen Jin slightly to the side and whispered into his ear, "Grandfather, the situation is dangerous. This time, it is better to strike preemptively like the last time when we got rid of the Jinwu family. Let's use that trump card."
As long as that trump card was used, the two clans of Tonghuang and Mugu would be wiped out. The crisis encountered by the Chen family could be resolved this time.
But …
Chen Jin shook his head, "After we used our trump card last time, the Protoss investigation team was stationed at the Chen family's house for five years. Because there was no conclusive evidence, they had no choice but to withdraw the surveillance. If we repeat the same trick this time and expose our motives, I'm afraid it will not be as easy as last time."
Once it was exposed that the Chen family was the culprit behind the deaths of millions of Protoss, the Chen family would probably become the "public enemy" of the entire Protoss. It was estimated that they would be drowned by countless Protoss in an instant.
"We won't use our trump card?"
Chen Junfeng frowned, "That won't do. The first and second clans will join forces and send countless masters. The Chen family's fortress may not be able to withstand them. When that time comes, we will all be finished!"
"Grandfather, it's two large Protoss clans. If we don't use our trump card, we may not win."
"If we use our trump card, we will definitely die."
Chen Jin still shook his head, "If we don't use our trump card, the odds of winning are fifty-fifty. It's not that we don't have the power to fight."
Fifty-fifty?
This was unlikely. The Chen family's fortress was so strong that there was still a chance of winning after blocking two large Protoss clans?
Chen Junfeng's face was full of disbelief. Forget fifty percent, there might not even be a thirty percent chance of winning.
"I'm not boasting. It was the artificial intelligence 'Abao' who told me this based on the results of the computer simulation."
Abao was the control center of the Chen family's fortress. It was also an artificial intelligence with an extremely high level of intelligence. It even said that there was more than a fifty percent chance of destroying the invaders.
A green light flashed in the air. The artificial intelligence Abao appeared and explained to Chen Junfeng,
"We have at least a fifty percent chance of winning this defensive battle."
"This is because we have three obvious advantages on our side."
"First, after the end of the 'political party' chaos, the Tonghuang clan has suffered heavy losses, and the Mugu clan has also lost one-third of its members. Their strength is not as good as before, and their threat is significantly lower than before. The practitioners sent below the Shenguang order may not even be able to destroy the three outermost lines of defense, much less break through the inner core line of defense."
"Second, our strength has become stronger! Over the past few decades, the Chen family's fortress has been under construction, improvement, and strengthening. The density of various defensive weapons is unimaginable. Some weapons based on celestial technology are so powerful that they may even be able to kill practitioners of the Shenguang order. "
"Also, in the fortress, a total of 800 'biochemical mechas' have been mass-produced for eight regiments. They are stationed in eight corners. After years of maintenance and self-cultivation, all of them have the strength of the Yuanying stage. But because of their large size, the total amount of spiritual energy they contain is equivalent to that of a practitioner of the Jushen order. In addition, they have the ability to penetrate the Upstanding Qi shield on the surface of the bodies of masters of the Shenguang order."
"Then, they are arranged into a 'killing formation' derived from a computer algorithm. The 'biochemical mechas' of each regiment have the ability to encircle and kill the practitioners of the Shenguang order."
"Eight regiments are equivalent to dealing with a maximum of eight practitioners of the Shenguang order."
"Obviously, in order to devour the Chen family, the Tonghuang and Mugu clans will send out all their elites, but it is impossible to send all the masters of the Shenguang order. At most, they will send five or six … This is within our acceptable range."
"Finally, we have the advantage of intelligence. Our surveillance system has penetrated every corner of the two major clans, and we have learned all their movements and information. Their next actions will be completely transparent and displayed in front of us. We have achieved an absolute understanding of the enemy."
"But they know nothing about us. They don't understand our strength and details at all."
"So, we have the intelligence advantage of knowing ourselves and knowing our enemy. We understand their situation and movements in real time, which increases our chances of winning by at least 20%."
"In summary, even if we don't use our trump cards, we have a greater chance of resisting this wave of malicious attacks. At the same time, we can also establish the reputation of the Chen family as not to be provoked."
The artificial intelligence Abao analyzed.
Chen Junfeng nodded and said with some surprise, "Our Chen family has actually become so powerful?"
"Prepare well!"
Chen Jin's eyes shone brightly. "The Chen family has kept a low profile for too long, leaving others with an image of weakness and bullying. This time, it's time to reverse this image! After we defeat the Tonghuang and Mugu clans, the so-called 'protection' and protection fees can be gone forever. "
The Chen family had the ability to defend their own interests.
