Chapter 1224 - 1191: I Have a Solution!
At the beginning of its public beta, "Glory of the Gods" stated on its official website that the game would feature a completely open world structure.
Anything that exists in reality might happen in the game.
All settings within the game are established based on reality, allowing players to almost fully experience various emotions, flavors, touches, and pains in the game.
The game offered everyone an unprecedented experience.
At the same time, many players also encountered various incredible adventures and surprises in the game.
Therefore, when Lin Yi spoke about the He Clan Battle Zone completely turning into the Demon Realm, becoming a ’paradise’ for the Demon Race, Hojo Takeshi did not have any doubts.
The extinction of the Demon-controlling Race had already made players profoundly understand that in this world, nothing is impossible.
Though Hojo Takeshi was reluctant to admit it,
he had to say,
what Lin Yi mentioned will soon become reality.
Even Hojo Takeshi couldn’t think of any way to prevent this from happening.
With the current overall strength of the He Clan, they simply cannot contend with the Demon Race of Demon King level.
Not to mention the distant future.
Even now, the vacant City Lord positions in Sapporo City and Celestial River City have not found suitable candidates.
Especially considering what the He Clan Battle Zone can use to resist the Demon Race invasion in half a month.
Even though, by that time, the natives could also participate in the battle against the demons.
But faced with the overwhelming Demon Race army.
The few Demigod level experts in the He Clan Battle Zone are simply a drop in the bucket.
Thinking of this, Hojo Takeshi couldn’t help but look at Lin Yi:
"Do you have a way?"
Lin Yi said confidently:
"If I didn’t, I wouldn’t be here right now, would I?"
Unable to contain his curiosity, Hojo Takeshi asked:
"Could you then tell us, Mr. Feng Hua?"
"Of course I can!"
Then Lin Yi revealed his true intention for this trip:
"Give up here."
"What?!"
Hojo Takeshi even thought he heard wrong, looked incredulously at the man in front of him:
"You’re telling me to give up here? What do you mean!"
Lin Yi spoke bluntly:
"Because you simply cannot withstand the attack from the Demon Race, it’s your only choice."
"In half a month, this place will become the territory of the Demon Race, an unchangeable fact."
"The only thing you can do is leave here in advance."
"There’s an old saying in Hua Country: To retreat as an advance when it’s timely can return stronger."
Then Lin Yi glanced at the towering Border City behind Hojo Takeshi and said:
"These three cities, I can help you defend."
"In exchange! I can also provide you a place for your He Clan players to rapidly enhance their strength."
"You!!"
If Hojo Takeshi still didn’t understand Lin Yi’s intention at this point, he would have lived in vain all these years.
Hojo Takeshi, pointing angrily at Lin Yi, gritted his teeth and said:
"Crafty Hua Country people, I almost got deceived by you."
At this moment, recalling the rumors online earlier, Hojo Takeshi suddenly felt enlightened:
"Four cities again!"
"It turns out my three cities are among them."
Hojo Takeshi laughed in extreme anger:
"Unfortunately, I can only regretfully tell you."
"Even if this place falls into the hands of the Demon Race, we will absolutely not hand it over to you."
Then Hojo Takeshi left, not intending to give any chance for further explanation.
However, Lin Yi did not try to stop him, just quietly watched Hojo Takeshi leave, saying:
"The opportunity has been given to you, too bad you don’t want it."
"I will come here again tonight."
Lin Yi’s words gave Hojo Takeshi’s departing steps a slight pause.
Hojo Takeshi turned angrily towards Lin Yi, full of resentment:
"Hua Country people!"
"Do you really think my He Clan is easy to bully?"
Lin Yi shrugged to indicate:
"I’m pointing out a way for you."
"Persisting stubbornly will only make it harder for your entire He Clan to ever turn the tide."
"Consider my words carefully."
"If you agree to my terms, at least I can ensure you have enough time and space to grow.
"Otherwise, the only path ahead of you is death."
Yet Lin Yi’s sincere words only invited a cold laugh from Hojo Takeshi:
"If you want our cities, just come and take them, we await you."
After speaking, Hojo Takeshi turned decisively and left, leaving Lin Yi alone with three combat pets in place.
At this moment, the Bone Dragon Guderian behind Lin Yi suddenly roared towards the sky.
And the He Clan players in the Border City each looked as if facing a great enemy, their faces changed dramatically:
"Be careful!"
"Feng Hua is going to assault the city."
"Prepare for ranged output, close combat deploy."
"Close the city gate, quickly close the gates."
But within moments, the entire city wall was thrown into chaos.
Hojo Takeshi stood with a dark face in front of the city gates, an anxious player approached:
"Lord, quickly come in."
Still, Hojo Takeshi suddenly burst into fury toward the elite He Clan players in front of him:
"The opponents consist of only one person, yet we have a hundred thousand elite defenders, look at yourselves now."
"Do you still consider yourselves warriors of the Yamato Race? Huh!!!"
"Useless, all of you are useless!!!"
Hojo Takeshi’s words immediately left the He Clan players around him standing as if struck dumb, not daring to move.
Hojo Takeshi turned his gaze towards Lin Yi in the distance, his expression cold as frost, snorted coldly then entered the city.
As the gates of the Border City were heavily closed amid a roar.
The players inside the city inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief, everyone’s face involuntarily showed a hint of shame.
Just as Hojo Takeshi said.
These self-proclaimed elite of the He Clan Battle Zone were frightened to the bones by a single combat pet from Feng Hua.
If this gets out, the He Clan Battle Zone will surely become a laughingstock again.
The Bone Dragon Guderian did not launch the anticipated attack on the Border City, but rather remained suspended in the air.
It was only when Lin Yi watched Hojo Takeshi disappear within the gates that he activated the Town Recall Skill and said leisurely:
"Truly, one doesn’t learn until the last moment!"
Although Lin Yi’s objective indeed includes the three existing Border Cities in the He Clan Battle Zone.
Yet what Lin Yi said earlier was not exaggerated in the least.
Rather than let these three Border Cities be destroyed in the Demon Race invasion half a month later, it would be better to maximize their use now.
Some might say that Lin Yi doing this is exceedingly selfish, completely disregarding the feelings of the players in the He Clan Battle Zone.
Losing the three Border Cities leaves He Clan players with only the option to move to another Battle Zone.
Otherwise, just the punishment for losing the Border Cities would be enough to leave them with no improvements in their current Battle Zone.
However, these are no longer within the scope of Lin Yi’s considerations.
As the Demon Race invasion is imminent, Lin Yi must focus on ensuring that the Hua Country War Zone does not repeat the same fate as the He Clan Battle Zone.
Thus, the only choice is to rapidly elevate the strength of the Hua Country War Zone players.
This is the conclusion Lin Yi reached after careful consideration.
...

Lin Yi:
"After today, these three cities will belong to Hua Country!"
