329: John Bull Army Assemble!
Chapter 329: John Bull's Army Assembles!
Lu Ran found this scene somewhat amusing and frustrating.
He waved his hand and said, "That's not what I meant. You and us, we used to be allies. Although our relationship isn't as close as before since the Global Datafication, we are still considered allies. I won't attack you."
Upon hearing this,
The Bearded Man was stunned.
Then he said, "You don't have to be like that. You've seen our legion's setup; it's a scattered mess, not formidable. Even if you don't attack us, if other factions discover us, we'll likely be wiped out directly."
At the same time,
The people behind the Bearded Man also started chattering:
"Yes, it's normal to be wiped out by other factions."
"It's been like this every year."
"This year will certainly be no exception; we've always been at the bottom anyway."
"It's not that we don't pursue rankings, but we simply don't have the ability or skill."
"Since that's the case, it's our honor to meet you first."
"We're going to be eliminated sooner or later, and we'll be at the bottom no matter what, so it's better to be wiped out by you."
"That way, it can still accumulate points for Dragon Xia."
"Although Dragon Xia will definitely be first, this makes it even more secure."
"Consider it our contribution."
...
To be honest,
What Lu Ran felt wasn't really move (moved).
He even found it somewhat unbelievable.
These people, they could go to such lengths?
He shook his head again and said, "Forget it, I just came down to say hello to you and to tell you that our alliance is still valid. Since you're near Dragon Xia, that's perfect. I can't guarantee you won't be eliminated, but as long as I notice you, no other faction can touch you."
Lu Ran couldn't guarantee it.
It wasn't that Lu Ran lacked the ability.
It was that he didn't have that much extra attention to spare.
This kind of thing was just a matter of convenience.
Help if he could, don't worry if he couldn't notice, just help as much as possible as a matter of convenience.
And with Lu Ran's guarantee, if their luck wasn't truly terrible, and they weren't swiftly wiped out by another faction in a blind spot where Lu Ran wasn't paying attention,
Then, they would at least be in the top five!
These people, of course, knew this.
So, at this moment, they were all dumbfounded.
The Bearded Man swallowed hard and said, "You... are you serious?"
The people behind him also looked at Lu Ran with disbelief.
"Serious. I mean what I say and do what I say," Lu Ran nodded.
Instantly, the Bearded Man's eyes turned red.
With Lu Ran's guarantee, with the guarantee of the Global number one professional, with Dragon Xia's protection, what more was there to say?
One must know,
Today's Dragon Xia is truly globally renowned!
It's almost certain they'll take first place this time.
Given Dragon Xia's current attitude towards their Ba Country, their future Little Japan in this tiny land will definitely soar!
This faction war's ranking is just the beginning!
Following a big shot, how could their days be bad?
Everyone was incredibly moved.
Lu Ran, on the other hand, felt nothing much.
"That's all. I have other matters..." Lu Ran mused.
He didn't plan to waste any more time here.
He still needed to continue exploring the surroundings.
But then,
Lu Ran hadn't even finished speaking.
Suddenly, a guard ran over.
It was the guard assigned to patrol.
"It's bad! Enemies are gathering east of the camp!" the guard shouted anxiously.
Huh?
The Bearded Man was stunned, the people around him were stunned, and Lu Ran was also stunned.
Damn, it couldn't be such a coincidence, could it?
"East..." Lu Ran muttered, looking up towards the east.
He was calculating the direction in his mind.
Indeed.
He hadn't explored the east yet, which was exactly the opposite direction from Dragon Xia's camp.
Because Lu Ran had flown in a circle, when he saw Ba Country's camp, he came directly to check it out.
Naturally, he didn't know what was happening in the east.
Unexpectedly,
Other factions were also so fast; they had found Ba Country's camp, and they had even gathered?
Since they had started gathering, this wasn't just a simple reconnaissance; this was the rhythm of war!
The Bearded Man cautiously looked at Lu Ran.
Lu Ran, however, said directly, "Let's go take a look."
Not long after,
Above the tower east of Ba Country's camp.
Lu Ran and the Bearded Man stood side by side, their gazes fixed on the distant horizon.
The tower soared high, and a gentle breeze rustled their clothes, bringing a touch of coolness.
In the distant wilderness, dust billowed.
A dense mass of people surged like a tide, gradually converging into a large expanse.
"A large army is assembling, not small teams for probing and investigation. It seems they really intend to take us down in one go," the Bearded Man whispered, his voice tinged with helplessness and anger.
At the same time, he glanced at the flag still fluttering beside them.
Their totem on it was particularly striking.
It was a totem they were proud of.
But on the battlefield map, their totem was a sign of weakness.
The enemy had merely seen the totem.
In such a short time,
Without any tactical deployment, or formation, they had directly assembled a large army.
This was absolute contempt!
They intended to take them down in one swift blow!
Such a quick reaction and careless arrangement.
It was truly frustrating.
Lu Ran didn't respond, merely squinting his eyes slightly, gazing at the gradually approaching army of professionals.
Above the wilderness, flags fluttered, and the various weapons of the professionals gradually became clear.
They shimmered with different lights, and countless figures flickered in and out of view.
Their footsteps were somewhat chaotic; this wave of attack was clearly a temporary order.
"The number has exceeded three million," Lu Ran finally spoke, his voice low and calm. "And it's still increasing. They truly intend to take you down in one go. Do you recognize the totem on that flag?"
The Bearded Man stared intently.
Before, it was too far to see clearly.
Now that the distance was closer, he saw it distinctly.
It was a robust bull totem.
"John Bull?" The Bearded Man's face immediately turned grim.
Given their size, although the Bearded Man spoke pitifully,
In previous National Wars, they weren't completely at the bottom.
There were still some smaller factions they could dominate.
Most of the time, they were wiped out by other factions.
But even so, it was rare to encounter a super-large faction like John Bull!
These years,
Although Dragon Xia and Eagle-san were at odds,
John Bull, Polar Bear, and other big shots were also quietly developing and competing with each other.
They were absolutely top-ranked big-shot factions globally!
"Unexpectedly, our tiny Ba Country, with your Dragon Xia to the west, and now John Bull to the east, this is truly..." The Bearded Man was somewhat speechless.
Should he say they were lucky or unlucky?
Their small, tiny land.
How could they be so fortunate?
Their nearby camp was actually sandwiched between two super-large factions!
And to make matters worse, they were discovered by John Bull so quickly.
