Chapter 1773: Chapter 1773: Mountain Tomb
Watching the two Air Fortresses, covered in countless Magic Chains, fly away, a Lizardman asked the leader.
“Boss, they’ve flown away. What should we do?”
These people barely escaped being bombarded by hiding in a cave, but now they were covered in dirt and looked quite pitiful.
“What can we do? We’ll return to the city. We’ve held off for half an hour for Mountain Tomb City. Isn’t that considered an achievent?” the Lizard Man Leader said through gritted teeth.
“Brilliant, truly brilliant.”
The eyes of a few guild leaders lit up. Initially, they were worried that their supposed straightforward retreat had instead turned into a desperate and disastrous effort—a blunder.
But looking at it from another angle, they had given Mountain Tomb City an early warning and delayed two Air Fortresses for half an hour. Didn’t that provide their people with preparation ti? Surely, that counts as a contribution.
“A bunch of idiots.”
Watching the guild leaders run out, the Lizard Man Leader muttered, feeling internally aggrieved. He had to vent, but against soone like Prairie Fire, he couldn’t hit him, nor could he outfight him.
Getting killed repeatedly had left him utterly humiliated.
“We will et again. Mountain Tomb City isn’t so easy to take,” the Lizard Man Leader said as he began using the Hearthstone for Mountain Tomb City.
Li Yao naturally didn’t care about a re Lizardman, nor was he concerned about any preparations that Mountain Tomb City might have.
If he couldn’t even steamroll over a tiny resource city, there was no point in talking about capturing a main city. The reason he entertained these people was simply to gather energy units. Eventually, he’ll show them the power of the Steel Worm Swarm.
The speed of the Air Fortress was exceedingly fast even without dinsional teleportation. In less than an hour, a city amidst the mountains ca into view.
However, at this ti, people from Mountain Tomb City were indeed prepared. A large air force was already in the sky.
Seeing the excited expressions of the main force players, Li Yao spoke loudly: “I believe everyone can see the city ahead. It originally belonged to our Dark Camp, and now we are going to take it back. Everyone is here to earn military achievents, that’s a given. But as the New Warlord, I must offer everyone a benefit to make a good start. In this battle, the guild with the most military achievents will get the right to a share of the city’s tax revenue.”
Instantly, the eyes of those in the super and large guilds sparkled. This was the benefit those who acted separately from the main force hoped to gain.
The price those people would have to pay to take a city was imnse. Not even a super guild dared to attack a city alone; they would always unite, and then the spoils would still need to be divided.
Yet the benefits they would gain here required little cost compared to facing the main force. Just strive with all they have to secure the most military achievents.
Li Yao looked back at them and smiled: “I say this knowing many of the dium and small guilds feel disadvantaged, feeling their chances are slim compared to the super and large guilds. But I’d like to say this: you all have a chance for this benefit. Super guilds are strong, naturally the competition is theirs, but the group guilds must have so opportunities. So I’ve decided to split this city’s tax revenue into ten shares. For this city assault, the first super guild will get four shares, the first large guild will get three shares, and the top dium or lower guild will get three shares.”
Hearing Li Yao say this, not just the dium and small guilds but even the large guilds’ eyes lit up. This gave them a chance. Otherwise, it would have been too tough competing against the super guilds, given their formidable resources.
A president of a dium guild asked, “Marshal Prairie Fire, I have a question. I’m not sure if I should ask.”
Li Yao nodded: “Go ahead.”
“I want to know, what if our dium guild outperforms the first large guild in military achievents?” the president of the dium guild asked intently.
Li Yao chuckled: “That’s a good question. It shows that many have noticed the issue. Let make it clear: this is an opportunity for everyone to gain benefits, making you feel assured to put in your effort. It’s not just about being an accessory, watching the super guilds eat at while you only drink soup. The rule is, if a dium or small guild not only ranks first in their category but also outperforms the large guilds and even super guilds, they shall enjoy all the shares themselves. Understand?”
A hint of fervor flickered in the eyes of most players. This was definitely an opportunity. At this mont, they no longer opposed the fact the Marshal was a player, knowing that an NPC wouldn’t implent such rules.
“Isn’t this unfair to the super guilds?” a mber of a super guild said.
Before Li Yao could respond, Sister Li said, “We of Starfire are not participating in the rankings, and I have to say this: if the super guilds can’t even outperform large or even dium or small guilds in military achievents, then what face do you have to demand a tax share. Our main force aims to capture the main city. If you’re half-hearted, then, heh…”
Most people nodded in agreent, as there were only a few super guilds compared to the large, dium, and small guilds.
Many guild leaders sighed at how ruthless Li Yao was. Under this rule, the dium and small guilds would certainly strive for military achievents, and the super guilds who wanted to loaf around wouldn’t be able to, as standing on the sidelines was nearly impossible unless they didn’t want a share.
The players on the two ships had eyes red with enthusiasm, eagerly taking on military achievent tasks. Those summoning aerial troops started doing so, while those proficient in ground combat accepted siege tasks, unable to wait as they enhanced Float and descended to summon their armies. The players were like wolves starving for a al.
In the air, a massive flock of aerial troops flew towards the Air Fortress.
Leading them was a Lizardman with a dragon’s head, evidently the vanguard. Among the flying mounts behind him were more than a dozen, including one who had been repeatedly killed by Li Yao.
“Prairie Fire, you are too arrogant to daringly co to Mountain Tomb City and provoke Dragon Head. Your end is nigh…”
Bang!
Once again, a headshot killed the Lizardman Leader mid-sentence, sending him tumbling off his mount, his Soul White Light rising as his body smashed into a bloody pulp on the ground.
The Lizardn shuddered, startled by the distance and the lack of any chance to dodge.
“So people never learn,” Li Yao sighed.
The dragon-headed Lizardman showed no emotion, saying indifferently, “No wonder you’re Prairie Fire, as domineering as the legends say. You’re sothing. I detest that waste too. If it weren’t for his well-connected father, I would have crushed him long ago. I’m Bobo Dragon Head. I believe you’ll rember this na in the future.”…
