Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Guo Jia heard Mei Changge’s words, his eyes lit up.
“Yes.”
Mei Changge nodded. He knew that Guo Jia could guess what he wanted to do in the depths of No Man’s Land.
“My lord, is it for the sake of being an Overlord?”
Guo Jia pondered for a moment.
After Mei Changge returned from Green Lotus Market, he mentioned to him about the Overlord.
“Yes.”
“Do you still remember the Destiny Chessboard?”
Mei Changge shifted his gaze away from Guo Jia and looked out of the Dark Wall.
“The Destiny Chessboard is a precious treasure employed by the Great Xia
Academy, and it’s directly utilized in No Man’s Land.”
“That’s right. The Great Xia Token in my hand is the identity symbol of a Destiny Chess Piece.”
Mei Changge flipped his palm and the Great Xia Token appeared in his hand.
Outsiders might not be able to sense it, but Mei Changge could sense a faint power of Destiny gathering in the Great Xia Token.
Mei Changge could clearly feel the power of Destiny being nurtured in the Great Xia Token.
Most importantly, it contained his aura.
“The Destiny Chessboard and chess pieces… Who will be the final victor?” Guo Jia was deep in thought. Then, he looked at Mei Changge.
“I didn’t attend the Blue Star Academy with the intention of becoming the so-called Overlord and condensing the Destiny Seed.”
Mei Changge smiled.
If he became an Overlord with the Destiny Seed in the Great Xia Token, he would still be a pawn on the Destiny Chessboard.
However, after obtaining the Destiny Spirit, the current Mei Changge had a chance to escape the chessboard.
As for the consequences, Mei Changge was not very clear.
However, it was better than becoming a chess piece.
“My lord, do you plan to escape the Destiny Chessboard?”
Guo Jia frowned slightly, looking serious.
“Maybe.”
Mei Changge did not know if going to the Blue Star Academy could allow him to escape the Destiny Chessboard, but he still had to give it a try.
The two of them stood on the black wall. In No Man’s Land, Song Yubai and Lin Zifeng led their soldiers toward Mandrill City.
Although they occasionally encountered foreign races on the way, the two of them did not fight with them because their target was the Mandrill race.
As for the other foreign races, Li Xin and Zhang Xiang were in charge. After Li Xin and Zhang Xiang entered No Man’s Land, they found a large plain and tossed out the treasure that Mei Changge had given them.
It instantly turned into a city wall with some simple houses on the inside.
“Let’s begin!”
Li Xin said to Zhang Xiang with a serious expression.
“Okay!”
Zhang Xiang nodded. He stationed a group of soldiers in the city and walked out with the rest.
They began to attack the surrounding foreign races.
Beyond the Dark Wall, the flames of war were kindled as the soldiers mobilized.
Certain foreign races appeared to find hope, while others, driven by ambition, began to launch attacks on neighboring foreign races.
In just a few days, the entire No Man’s Land was in chaos.
The Phantom Horn race was obliterated, and the Mandrill race suffered significant losses. It seemed that some foreign races who had previously submitted to the Mandrill race found a new purpose and initiated conflicts with neighboring foreign races.
In the Green Cloud Palace, Mei Changge sat upright on the throne. Below him, Guo Jia was smiling.
“My lord, these foreign races are fighting each other.”
“I learned from the intelligence sent back by Li Xin that some foreign races are planning to attack the Mandrill race.”
“Do you think we should ask Lin Zifeng and the rest to stop?”
Guo Jia said with a smile.
The chaotic battle between the foreign races was something he had not expected.
This was a complete accident.
“There’s no need. Those foreign races are no match for the Mandrill race.” Mei Changge shook his head slightly.
Song Yubai and Lin Zifeng had not reached Mandrill City in the past few days.
Therefore, they did not know what was going on in the Mandrill race.
Nevertheless, the actions of Li Xin and Zhang Xiang plunged No Man’s Land into utter chaos.
As for Yan Zhen, up until now, he found no traces of the Thousand Heads race. It was as if they had disappeared.
However, how could a race disappear silently? Thinking of the Thousand Heads race’s ability, Mei Changge suspected that the chaotic state of No Man’s Land had something to do with them.
This was only his guess. Furthermore, the foreign races that Li Xin and Zhang Xiang were dealing with were only lesser foreign races. It would be impossible for the lesser foreign races to defeat the Mandrill race.
“The Mandrill race appears inactive. Feng Xiao, do you believe they are unaware of the current situation in No Man’s Land?”
Mei Changge looked at Guo Jia and said with a smile.
“Of course not. I think they might be preparing a trap.”
Guo Jia smiled.
No Man’s Land was in chaos. With the current location of the Mandrill race, it was impossible for them not to know.
After all, they had just destroyed the Phantom Horn race and had even sent a large number of Forest race members to try to occupy nearby territories.
Lin Zifeng and Song Yubai, along with their troops, marched on the Forest race, leaving destruction in their wake wherever they went.
However, the Mandrill race pretended not to know and did not care about the life and death of the Forest race.
They continued to send out the Forest race to occupy their positions.
“The Mandrill race must be eager to secure the nearby territory promptly, especially given their ties to the Forest race. I suspect that King Mandrill is keen on becoming the Overlord as soon as possible.”
Mei Changge still had some guesses about the actions of the Mandrill race. After all, in this situation, it was obvious that they wanted to occupy a
thousand miles of land as soon as possible.
“After becoming an Overlord, you will be baptized by the feedback of the
Destiny Seed.”
“Looks like the curse on King Mandrill isn’t simple.”
Mei Changge’s eyes were filled with thought. With King Mandrill’s strength, he could be said to be a top existence in the nearby No Man’s Land.
If he wasn’t cursed, he wouldn’t be indifferent to this situation.
“My lord, have Xu Chu and the rest not come out of the Phaseless Soldier Tower yet?”
Guo Jia asked with a serious expression.
The turmoil in No Man’s Land and the maneuvers of the Mandrill race were all leading up to an imminent eruption.
The Mandrill Guards of the Mandrill Clan were Transcendent.
With just the Mystic Yang soldiers and even the Nine Howling Wolf Cavalry, they might not be their match.
“Soon. In a few days.”
A golden light flashed in Mei Changge’s eyes.
“When Xu Chu and the others come out, I’ll personally lead them to Mandrill City to meet King Mandrill.”
Mei Changge’s eyes were solemn.
Once Xu Chu and the Golden Crow Guards came out of the Phaseless Soldier Tower, they would have 10,000 Transcendent soldiers.
Compared to the Mandrill Guards, the Golden Crow Guards were not bad.
Most importantly, Mei Changge planned to resolve the issue quickly while King Mandrill was cursed. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to stop King Mandrill after he removed the curse.
After all, Mei Changge was only at Transcendent Level 6. He was still a few levels away from the Dharma realm.
Mei Changge remained grateful to the Phantom Horn race. If they hadn’t put a curse on King Mandrill, he might not have had the courage to lead the Golden Crow Guards to Mandrill City.
“My lord!”
Guo Jia started to speak, but Mei Changge cut him off.
“Feng Xiao, don’t worry.”
“When the Golden Crow Guards attain Transcendence, they will undoubtedly be on par with the Mandrill Guards.”
“As for King Mandrill, if he is still affected by the power of the curse, I will lead the soldiers back to the Green Lotus Territory.”
Mei Changge said with a serious expression.
If King Mandrill had already removed the curse, he would have led Song Yubai and the rest back to the Green Lotus Territory.
At that time, he could only defend the Dark Wall and deal with the Mandrill race after he reached the Dharma realm.
When Guo Jia heard Mei Changge’s words, he finally nodded.
If they did not deal with King Mandrill, Green Lotus Territory would never be able to expand towards No Man’s Land. This was a huge obstacle that blocked the development of Green Lotus Territory.
Only by shattering it could the subsequent path of the Green Lotus Territory be unobstructed..
