82: The player’s first organization: the Great Love Alliance!
The sudden attackers didn't cause much of a stir, and their retreat was orderly, with some covering the rear and others scouting. Coupled with the caution of Heshui Prefecture's people who didn't pursue, they managed to withdraw completely unscathed.
After reaching a mountain peak and hiding in the woods, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, secretly feeling relieved.
"How was it? Did you catch any lone Cultivators?"
A man in bright red armor, holding a long halberd, slowly walked over. His eyebrows were sharp, his eyes bright, and he exuded an untamed, flamboyant aura.
"Brother Long, the people from Heshui Prefecture are very cautious; not a single one was alone."
"Now that the Golden Core Tomb has opened, they must have received some order not to act alone. They're all moving in groups."
"I guess this isn't targeting us, but rather they're afraid someone might secretly hoard treasures."
Listening to these words, Wang Long couldn't help but frown, a surge of anger constantly rising in his heart. He suddenly brandished his halberd, fiercely chopping at a nearby tree, actually cutting it down directly.
"This crappy game is truly boring! What kind of trash company is Huan Meng? Do they even know how to make games?"
Wang Long cursed and swore, clearly a hot-tempered person.
As the new ace of Xing Shi Club, Wang Long was not only quick to react and brilliant in his game operations, but he was also young and spirited, with extremely strong individual ability. In "Age of Glory," he could even pull off the arrogant feat of taking on three opponents at once, so he was never one to keep his cool.
Suddenly transferred into this Xuanhuan World, he initially took a soul-transmigrated Qi Refining account. As soon as he appeared, he sought out a native Loose Cultivator to rob, but ended up getting himself killed. Later, his physical body also died a few times, which finally made him settle down and no longer act so wildly.
Although he no longer dared, he still harbored resentment, feeling that Xuanhuan World was truly not a game for humans, but absolute trash.
"Brother Long, why don't we give up? Heshui Prefecture isn't that easy to deal with, and there's no need to bother with their Cultivation Technique. Let's just Cultivate properly."
"Or we could send people to infiltrate Heshui Prefecture. Even if we can't get the core direct lineage, we can at least get some outer Sect Cultivation Techniques."
"Not just Heshui Prefecture, other Sects should also be able to be handled this way. Even if there's no transmission medium, getting some copied Secret Manuals would be good."
Wang Long's head buzzed. He was already a reckless person not good at strategizing; how could he possibly handle this type of strategy-oriented management game?
He just waved his hand: "Forget it, you guys handle these things. I'm going to the Immortal Cave to Cultivate."
With that, he left without looking back, heading to the Cultivation Immortal Cave prepared by Seiya.
The Club, after all, had professional coaches. After their research, they discovered that the most important thing in Xuanhuan World was not average combat power, but top-tier combat power.
Therefore, the most suitable way to play was for a group of people to collect resources, specifically to support one player's Cultivation.
This player must also absolutely not thoughtlessly use Lifespan acceleration, but rather meticulously use Lifespan according to Cultivation resources, and even allocate some Lifespan to accelerate spellcasting, skills, Alchemy, and Artifact Refining.
It was precisely because of this that even though Wang Long was not good at strategizing, he was still the first to be sent into Xuanhuan World, precisely because his individual combat strength was valued, hoping he could bear the main responsibility.
Other Club members also understood this principle. Although they felt some regret at being overlooked, they also knew that the bigger picture was more important.
"Other players are probably still distributing resources evenly. Only Clubs like ours know to pile all resources onto one person. Once Brother Long achieves Immortal Foundation, our Seiya will be able to shine brightly."
"Xuanhuan World is definitely going to be a popular game. Everyone is shifting their focus; we absolutely cannot fall behind."
"If we don't have a Golden Core, if we don't have an Immortal Foundation, we truly can't sleep soundly."
Everyone discussed animatedly, made arrangements among themselves, and went to work... Meanwhile, on the other side.
Midnight Gao Sou, who had already been defeated and restarted, was streaming, his eyebrows raised, a look of cheerfulness on his face.
"Fellow Daoists, I, Old Potato, and some other streamers, whose names are all listed here, have unanimously decided to form a player Alliance for exchanging intelligence and Cultivation Techniques. You can also team up with each other within the Alliance to make it easier for everyone to Cultivate and become stronger together!"
Midnight Gao Sou was in high spirits, appearing very energetic and full of vigor.
The audience in the live stream also showed their support:
【Great, I'm joining this Alliance. Are there any requirements?】
【I read the details. No need to reveal identity, but everyone who joins must upload at least one Secret Manual and provide at least one piece of intelligence.】
【What if I don't have any?】
【If you don't, you can still join by revealing your identity, and then upload them once you acquire Secret Manuals or intelligence later.】
Everyone discussed animatedly, very curious about this Alliance.
Cultivation Techniques, skills, etc., in Xuanhuan World could be freely disseminated on the in-game mail System or forum, like a piece of code, considered a copied Secret Manual. Players could import them into the game at any time for their characters to learn.
However, because there was no transmission medium, learning through a "copied Secret Manual" required passing a Comprehension Ability judgment first, and also spending time (Lifespan) to get started. Even after getting started, it wasn't certain that one could truly learn it to Major Achievement—because there were always those who secretly modified the Secret Manuals, specifically omitting the latter half, just waiting for you to come begging to them and pay for it.
In short, these Secret Manuals freely circulated on the forum were looked down upon by tycoons, pro players, and professional players.
But for ordinary players, this was a treasure trove.
Forming a player mutual aid Alliance was a good thing for many players.
Coupled with the leading role of a popular streamer, the Alliance's framework was quickly established, even alarming the official side, who specifically opened a sub-forum for the Alliance's use.
【Gao Sou, what's our Alliance called?】
Not only were players asking, but the Huan Meng staff responsible for managing the forum were also asking to determine the sub-forum's name.
Midnight Gao Sou and others discussed for a while, then sought player opinions, and finally said with a smile:
"Our Alliance will be mutually beneficial, full of Great Love in the cold Xuanhuan World, so we call it... 'Great Love Alliance!'"
Thus, the first organization among players, the "Great Love Alliance," was established.
The first Alliance Leader was Midnight Gao Sou, and the Vice Alliance Leader was Old Potato.
Midnight Gao Sou was in high spirits. He thought for a moment and felt that the Alliance should organize some activities, where everyone could compete for resources and such.
He also felt that he couldn't handle this matter well himself and needed to contact his good brother, so he privately sent a message to Mage:
"Mage, we've formed a Great Love Alliance. Do you want to join?"
On the other side.
Mage saw the message and felt a bit confused.
"What the hell? Great Love Alliance? Formed by players?"
His mind was full of questions; he had no idea what Midnight Gao Sou was up to.
