Chapter 2492: The Double-Standard Woman
If it weren't for those unlucky three hours that wasted time, Jiangnan's personal points might have risen even further!
But to surpass Innocent, simply relying on robbing Group Armies for points was completely hopeless!
Jiangnan couldn't help scratching his head:
O(ꐦ≥皿≤)O "Ahhh~ The overall MVP, the title of Star Hunter King is so cool, I really want it, right?"
"Noob Yuan? How many players are still left in the field?"
Zi Yuan rubbed her stubble, counting on her fingers:
(͡°┏～┓͡°) "When the map was last refreshed, there were probably still over twenty million left! About fifteen Group Armies!"
"But now the point gains of each faction have slowed down, they're gathering their forces. The Bastard Legion is reinforcing, the Galaxy Legion is also storing energy, and everyone is being much more cautious in their actions."
Ye Yuanwei rested her chin on her hand, looking serious:
(◕･ˇกˇ･) "Hiss~ Only twenty million left? The progress this time is really fast, I'm afraid it might break the fastest record of previous Cosmos Grand Hunts!"
"These twenty million Group Armies are the final cake. Now the point gaps among the top ten sequences are fifty to sixty thousand, or even over a million!"
"And if we just ignore the other competitors and directly go for these twenty million points, the gap will only widen. Catching up or overtaking is hopeless!"
"So at this point every time, the collisions among the top ten sequences begin, all to fight for this last piece of cake!"
By reducing the number of competitors' personnel, they lower their efficiency in earning points, or directly clear them out!
Make it so they can no longer touch these twenty million points, then catch up in this final round!
This is also the sequence ranking battle of the major races!
And at this stage, Jiangnan's notoriety is no longer enough to stop them!
Jiangnan sneered: (๑¯ิ⇀¯ิ) "I don't care! I want to be MVP! I'm going to be the Star Hunter King no matter what!"
"So as long as I take out all the players ranked above me, stop them from gaining points, and then push my own points up, I'll be number one, right?"
Everyone looked at Jiangnan speechlessly. Hey hey hey, your method is way too direct, isn't it?
Ye Yuanwei's pretty face turned pale:
(☍﹏⁰◕) "Umm... I'm not planning to increase my personal points from now on. I'll give all the kills I get here to Se Se. Can you not take me out?"
Her own ranking was also above Jiangnan's!
Jiangnan covered his face. You actually believed that?
But just then, Li Si seemed to suddenly remember something:
(ﾟ┏～┓ﾟ)ﾂ "Ah, right~ The Nonexistent One told me to tell Brother Nan not to go to the Silicon-based Divine Engine Camp. They've already dug a trap there, specifically aimed at Brother Nan!"
"He said he'll handle that side himself, and we should focus on farming points here~"
Everyone was stunned. A warning from the Nonexistent One?
Jiangnan clicked his tongue. To be honest, the best way to take down the Silicon-based was to go to the Divine Engine Camp and destroy their production factories and temporary war terminal databases!
Only then would it be possible to completely eliminate the Silicon-based Mechanical Legion!
Jiangnan had indeed considered going to the Divine Engine Camp for a spin and two-dimensionalizing the Silicon-based data terminal!
But it seemed the Silicon-based had something nasty planned too, right? They hadn't shown their heads for so long, who knew what kind of grand Hongmen Banquet they had prepared at the Divine Engine Camp to welcome him!
Setting their headquarters so obviously there was a malicious intention, wasn't it?
Since he was warned, Jiangnan gave up the idea of visiting the Divine Engine Camp for a spin!
He'd focus on the immediate matters first!
But what incredible ability did that mysterious Nonexistent One have? How did he manage to get such confidential information?
(͡°͜ʖ͡°)✧ "Totally O98K, I'll remember!"
Li Si grinned:
(∗ᵒ̶̶̷̀┏3┓˂̶́∗) "Then I'll be relieved. Since this battle is over, I won't keep tagging along and being dead weight here!"
"I'll go find my Third Brother to duo queue. Bye~ Muah!"
With that, he directly used the Rift-Space Demon Butterfly to teleport away without looking back. Zhang San had called Li Si many times to hurry over; he was too lonely by himself!
But the Ye sisters widened their eyes. There really was that Nonexistent One? A mysterious big shot hidden in the shadows!
No matter what, they had to thank him in person afterwards...
Hmm? Why did they have to thank him?
Li Si went to find Zhang San for duo queue, while Jiangnan looked at the two rankings, his gaze shifting.
"For the rest of the hunt, we can't fight in groups anymore. The major clans aren't pushovers; if we encounter them in groups, it'll definitely be a tough fight, and we might even get cleared out."
"So from now on, we'll act jointly, always maintaining the highest combat power of the team."
Ye Yuanwei said, "You haven't answered my question yet. Should we continue hitting Group Armies, or clash with the major clans?"
Jiangnan grinned: "Put the Group Army matter on hold for now. With our manpower, if we don't split up, we can't compete with those major clans in efficiency."
"So the next step is to clean out the eyesore competitors!"
"Besides, even if we don't go to them, they won't sit still. If they don't take us out, those major clans won't be able to eat that last piece of cake peacefully."
"Passively taking a beating has never been my style. So we'll take the initiative and take them down one by one. As for the previous siege, the Insect Race provided plenty of insect soldiers to the Group Armies. It's time for them to see the price of having itchy hands."
Ye Jinshe widened her eyes:
(◕⁰̷̴～⁰̷̴) "We're... going to attack the Insect Race? Their Bastard Legion has a lot of manpower; hitting them would be a thankless task for us, right?"
"How about attacking the Galaxy Legion instead? They look big and dumb, easier to bully."
Jiangnan shook his head with a smile: "Don't bother debating who to hit. With us, no matter who we hit, it'll eventually turn into a situation where we get surrounded and beaten by all the major races."
"Don't worry, as we fight, the Galaxy Legion will show up."
Ye Yuanwei's mouth twitched. How did you guys manage to get through this road? To be able to speak such things so matter-of-factly, as if it's only natural?
But thinking about it carefully, it made sense!
With such a good opportunity, the other major clans wouldn't let it go; they'd definitely stick their noses in.
Some might say, "These major clans are all idiots. Why not sneak off to farm points from Group Armies while they're clashing?"
But if any major clan actually ran off first, just watch the other races unite to take them down!
Would they let you take advantage?
Everyone was too cunning!
Jiangnan rested his chin: (๑͡°ก͡°) "Although I'm confident I can take them down one by one, with just our numbers, facing the upcoming siege is still a bit too thin."
Odin pouted: (◦`┏～┓´◦) "Big brother~ So what are we going to do then?"
Jiangnan suppressed a laugh: "I told you, if we're going to play, play big! Isn't there still the Renqima Legion?"
"If they can form an alliance, why can't we? Excluding the Starry Sky overlord Bose Clan and the brain-dead Silicon-based, the only one we might borrow strength from is the Renqima Legion."
Ye Yuanwei shook her head: "I tried. Du Lingyu is completely impossible to communicate with, and has no intention of cooperating. She didn't even give me a chance to finish speaking."
Ye Jinshe nodded repeatedly:
(งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง "Right right right! Pfft~ That scheming woman has no manners at all!"
Jiangnan smiled bitterly: "If Du Lingyu agreed to cooperate with you, she'd be the one whose head was full of water! If you cooperated, the Renqima Legion would all be dead by now, right?"
Ye Yuanwei's face darkened. She had to admit Jiangnan was right!
That's why the position of the Dark Cosmos Entity was awkward!
The only one who dared to take on this mess was Jiangnan!
Jiangnan narrowed his eyes: "Once the cooperation is reached, that's three parts of the world. No matter what the Bose Body and Silicon-based think."
"Kicking the Bastard Legion and the Galaxy Legion out, at least half of this last cake will be ours!"
"By then, the order of our rankings won't matter. Control the points a bit, and everyone will have something to eat."
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help swallowing. Holy crap!
Jiangnan was determined to eliminate the Insect Race, Chaos Body, Celestial Star, and Stardust all at once?
He had quite the ambition!
But if it succeeded, then as Jiangnan said, the Cosmos Grand Hunt would be as stable as an old dog!
Ye Jinshe pouted: (◦`~´◦) "That's only if that scheming woman agrees to cooperate!"
Jiangnan grinned. Just wait and see!
"Noob Yuan? Where is the Renqima Legion currently?"
Zi Yuan shrugged. Liu Mang directly shared the map information, also pulling the Dark Cosmos Entities into the mental group chat!
Seeing the map information, the Dark Cosmos Entities were dumbfounded!
Whoa! No way? The full map of the Chuangjie Daxu? Humans have it?
How did they get it? Did they buy VIP or something?
Even the Dark Cosmos Entity, relying on dark energy sensing, could only identify regional maps!
A panoramic map was impossible. The Silicon-based relied on technology, the Bose Clan didn't need to say much—it was their venue, so not having a map would be strange!
The key was, even if humans paid, the Bose Clan wouldn't give map info!
Was it really the ability of this battle-five-scrub? No wonder she was so weak yet still being brought along!
"Not far. Let's go negotiate the cooperation."
...
In a ruined star region, the Renqima Legion was performing atomic transmission rapid marches!
Never staying in the same location for more than half a second. Up to now, the Renqima Legion had about 16,000 people left!
Their losses were also considerable, since they split the points evenly, pushing both sides' points to nearly four million!
The total points they earned together even surpassed the Bose Body's, so you can imagine how intense their battles had been along the way!
But even so, Du Lingyu and the others looked worried, constantly on alert around them!
And just then, Warning Ji and Du Lingyu both lit up!
Du Lingyu decisively said:
(｡･ˇヮˇ･)☛ "This way!"
Then directly led the legion turning left!
Everyone was a bit confused. Then Bai Gu snorted coldly, curling his lips with a sinister expression.
Wen Ge: (๑•̌～•̑) Hmm?
After a while, Jiangnan led the human team and the Dark Cosmos Entities, teleporting into view in the starry sky!
From afar, they saw the approaching Renqima Legion!
(ﾟꇴﾟ)ﾂ "Yo! I—"
Du Lingyu atom-transmitted straight to Jiangnan, stepped forward, grabbed his big hand, and held it with both hands!
Her expression was serious, face full of piety!
(ಠĹ̯ಠ˵) "I cooperate! Cooperate right now!"
Jiangnan: =͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇)
"Huh? I haven't even started negotiating... I prepared lines and scripts on the way, I—"
Du Lingyu's eyes sparkled:
(∗❛ั◡❛ั) "Between you and me, no need for many words. What you think in your heart is also what I, Du Lingyu, wish!"
"Cooperate! Cooperate immediately!"
Jiangnan: ╮(•́ω•̀)╭
Ye Yuanwei: (̿▀̿～▀̿̿)̄ Double-standard woman! Pfft!
