97: Good heavens! He really is a Versailles bigwig.

"Having achieved over 30,000 points and topping the leaderboard, your territory's soldier count must have already surpassed a hundred, right?"

Zhao Xiangtian wiped a bit of wine stain from the corner of his mouth, unable to resist asking.

"Almost!"

Su Bai smiled slightly.

Zhao Xiangtian's face showed a sense of wonder, and his eyes revealed deep admiration.

"As expected, my guess was correct!"

"To this day, the total number of troops in my territory hasn't even broken fifty."

"But you've already exceeded a hundred; that's truly amazing."

Su Bai waved his hand and said with a smile, "Not at all! Actually, being able to top the list was just a little bit of good luck."

"You're still as humble as ever!"

Zhao Xiangtian paused, a hint of anticipation in his eyes: "After we become official Lords, the two of us must communicate and interact more. After all, we were classmates for three years; that friendship shouldn't be lost!"

"No problem! You're welcome to visit my territory in the future!"

Su Bai's face was adorned with a smile.

It was still that saying: one doesn't hit a smiling person.

If others showed goodwill towards him, then greeting them with a smile was also a proper way to treat guests.

"Really? Then I must see what kind of troops you possess to be able to completely overwhelm all Newly Promoted Lords from various countries worldwide!"

Zhao Xiangtian's face was flushed with excitement, filled with intense emotion.

This was truly a Big Shot!

He possessed formidable strength, achieving miraculous results, yet his demeanor remained so low-key and reserved.

He was about to speak again.

However, he noticed that the surroundings had become noisy.

Turning his head, he realized that a large crowd had already gathered around.

After dinner, the other Lords in the banquet hall did not leave.

Instead, they all moved towards Su Bai's direction.

"Big Shot Su Bai, a photo please!"

"I'm so excited to finally see my idol up close!"

"Excuse me, Big Shot Su Bai, where are you from?"

"We're both StarCraft Zerg, so why did I barely survive the beast tide while Big Shot Su Bai was able to crush it, surpassing all Newly Promoted Lords and reaching the top?"

"Wuwuwu! Big Shot, almost all the soldiers in my territory died. After I become an official Lord, can you send troops to support my territory?"

"Su Bai, are you single? I want to be your girlfriend!"

"Brother, leave your contact information~~~"

"Ying ying ying! Big Shot, are you looking for a buddy?"

"Get lost! How disgusting!"

"Let me absorb some of Big Shot's good luck, I absorb absorb absorb absorb!"

"Big Shot Su Bai, this is a specialty from my hometown. Please don't dislike it; consider it a small gift from your junior."

For a moment, Zhao Xiangtian was squeezed off his feet by the crowd, and the high-stemmed glass in his hand fell to the ground with a clang, shattering into two halves.

Su Bai became the center of attention.

An endless stream of Lords came over, wanting to get close to him.

Even just getting a familiar face was already extremely happy for them.

Many girls became Su Bai's fangirls.

They all came forward asking for autographs, contact information, home addresses, and various other details.

Of course, Su Bai still maintained a basic sense of caution.

He did not reveal a single word of his contact information or home address.

As for autographs, he was not stingy, writing quickly and fluently to give benefits to his fans.

Su Bai did not accept any of the gifts people offered.

One who eats from others' mouths and takes from others' hands is beholden to them.

He understood this most basic principle.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the number of people crowding towards him grew larger and larger.

Soldiers from the Military Region, service personnel, and even cafeteria aunties all gathered around.

Other people were relatively easy to deal with.

But these cafeteria aunties were more difficult to handle.

Each of them went all out, asking all sorts of bizarre questions that gave Su Bai a massive headache.

People fear fame, just as pigs fear getting fat—that's the meaning of this saying!

Just then, Wang Zhenguo led a squad of guards and quickly walked over.

"Everyone, maintain order, pay attention to safety, and clear the way now!"

"The Military Region is holding a special meeting. All Lords who made it into the top 100 of the Points Leaderboard (points leaderboard) are to gather!"

Hearing the voice, Su Bai finally breathed a sigh of relief as if granted a great pardon.

Being surrounded by a group of aunties was truly terrifying!

He took large strides, quickly arriving beside Wang Zhenguo.

At the same time.

Bai Mengyu, Zhao Xiangtian, and other Lords who made it into the top 100 also gathered.

"Follow me!"

Wang Zhenguo waved his hand and stepped forward.

Su Bai and more than ten other Lords followed closely behind.

...A moment later.

Conference room.

Guo Jing, the highest leader of the Military Region, sat at the head of the table.

Beside him sat Wang Zhenguo and dozens of military officers.

On the other side, Shi Lesheng, the expert representative from the Academy of Sciences, was also present.

In the middle sat the 19 Lords who made it into the top 100 of the list.

"Congratulations to you all for making it into the top one hundred of the points leaderboard."

"You are the outstanding individuals among this year's Newly Promoted Lords and have made immense contributions to the nation."

"From now on, you will be the backbone of the country."

"Let's hear it, what resources do you need? The Military Region will prepare them for you."

Wang Zhenguo cleared his throat, scanned the crowd, and spoke slowly.

The young Lords' faces were filled with joy as they quietly exchanged words.

Soon, Zhao Xiangtian was the first to raise his hand and said, "I want a defensive building blueprint!"

The reason he wanted this was because the massive impact of the beast tide had left a significant shadow in his heart.

"No problem!"

Wang Zhenguo nodded, instructing a clerk nearby to record it on the computer.

"I need an item to replenish magical energy."

Bai Mengyu raised her hand and quickly said.

She hoped that in the future, when leading Elf Warlocks out, she could get additional magical energy replenishment.

This way, she could summon more Treant Warriors.

She would then have more confidence in facing monsters and Indigenous Forces.

"Understood!"

Wang Zhenguo nodded.

Immediately after, the other Lords spoke up one after another, stating the resources, items, or blueprints they desired.

Finally, only Su Bai remained, still not having spoken.

"Su Bai, what resources or items does your territory need?" Wang Zhenguo asked.

"I don't seem to be lacking anything!"

Su Bai said subconsciously.

The number of troops in his territory was about to exceed 4000!

Even the mighty Purgatory Tyrannosaurus Rex was easily annihilated.

Furthermore, the Military Region simply did not have blueprints for StarCraft Zerg buildings.

Suddenly, he slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, right, I do lack entertainment facilities. Otherwise, staying in the territory is too boring."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the conference room was astonished beyond measure.

The group of Lords couldn't help but exclaim:

"Good heavens! As expected of a Versailles Big Shot!"

"Ordinary people are terrified, fearing their territories will be destroyed by monsters, but Big Shot Su Bai is already bored."

"Entertainment facilities? Big Shot's words are truly astounding!"
