Chapter 863: Chapter 71: The Mantis’s Poisonous Plot, Huang Que’s Ingenious Strategy_2
Although everything now seems to be flourishing, morale high, and advantage in hand, Xiao Jie still feels something is amiss.
Some information always doesn’t match, and several important questions remain unanswered.
He glanced at Chen Tianwen beside him, but his heart moved.
"Brother Tianwen, aren’t you going to sign up?"
"Of course not, let them do the charging and fighting, anyway, whoever kills Wang Xie, the ascension item is mine."
Chen Tianwen has already reserved the loot rights certified by the Four True People. As long as the Four True People’s contributions are sufficient, he can get it one hundred percent. In other words, he won’t lose at all, since ultimately he is assured of getting a treasure.
At this time, Xiao Jie’s teammates also came over to register, Jiu Jianxian, Ye Luo, Hao Mie, Xia Yi the Unrivaled... seeing Xiao Jie, they all gathered around him.
I Want to Be Immortal: "Feng, should we also sign up?"
"No, not signing up yet, I just feel there’s something wrong this time."
A few people were a bit surprised, but trusting Xiao Jie, they didn’t rush to sign up, just waiting for Xiao Jie’s decision.
Xiao Jie’s mind was quickly working, Demon Talisman, chessboard, chess pieces, Ten Extremes Formation, Long Wushang, Wang Xie... numerous pieces of information continuously circulated in his brain.
Too easy, this intelligence came too easily, although a few players died, the information on the Ten Extremes Formation came too smoothly.
But why does he feel it’s too easy, logically, isn’t this the usual procedure for pre-tasks in game events?
What gives this task a challenging feeling?
Xiao Jie suddenly reacted; he thought of the information he had left out—Divine Calculation Sky Demon!
The Pantheon made such a big move this time, how could there be no action? Allowing players to gather intelligence at will?
Yes, the Pantheon does not need Long Wushang to win, so they won’t stop it.
Divine Calculation Sky Demon’s target is the ascension item, which is bound to be on Wang Xie and Long Wushang, and only when they are heavily injured and near death does he have the chance to snatch it. Now with three World Bosses together, the Alliance Army is unlikely to win, how could Divine Calculation Sky Demon allow such a thing to happen?
He suddenly thought of the scene when Chen Tianwen revealed the strategy for breaking the formation.
Chen Tianwen seemed divinely assisted, instantly spotting the flaw in the formation, although Chen Tianwen previously claimed he had never seen the formation.
Why did he instantly report the names of each formation?
Xiao Jie tentatively asked: "Brother Tianwen, did Divine Calculation Sky Demon contact you?"
"Why do you ask?" Chen Tianwen’s tone was calm, but Xiao Jie instantly confirmed his suspicion.
"So it’s true then."
Chen Tianwen was silent for a moment and finally smiled helplessly, "Xiao Jie, I still underestimated you. Yes, Divine Calculation Sky Demon did contact me just now.
He told me where the flaw in the formation lies as for the reason—I guess you’ve already figured it out, haven’t you."
Xiao Jie said, "To allow the Alliance Army to smoothly break into the formation and defeat Long Wushang and Wang Xie?"
Chen Tianwen replied, "Yes, he must have prepared some backup plan, ready to act when we defeat Long Wushang and Wang Xie, to seize the fruits of victory. Therefore, to ensure this plan could be realized, he revealed some information about the formation to me.
He let me convey it to the Alliance Army. Although he didn’t say it, I could tell he was proud of his scheme. His backup plan must be sharp; only I haven’t figured out what it is yet."
Xiao Jie nodded; Chen Tianwen’s words filled in some gaps in his thinking. Divine Calculation Sky Demon is a player, his target is the ascension item, which only drops from World Bosses, so one thing is certain: Divine Calculation Sky Demon hopes they win, so this time the provided information is most likely true. Before the World Boss is defeated, Divine Calculation Sky Demon won’t act.
But at the final moment, he’ll grab credit. However, what makes Divine Calculation Sky Demon think he can get the first loot privilege? Loot distribution is based on contribution to killing the Boss.
Even if he lands the final blow, thus gaining some contribution, it’s still hard to get the first loot privilege. Otherwise, wouldn’t he end up with just an ordinary legendary treasure?
But not necessarily, this battle involves many experts, and many players, contributions will be quite scattered overall. If the Boss still has 10% or even 5% blood volume left, Divine Calculation Sky Demon can kill it in one stroke, then he likely could get the first loot privilege.
But he probably didn’t consider that Chen Tianwen has the backing of the Four True People, whose combined contribution values are indeed beyond his reach.
Another thing Xiao Jie couldn’t figure out is Wang Xie’s plot. Wang Xie surely wouldn’t simply orchestrate formations and deal with the Alliance Army, given he plans to overturn the chessboard and smash the pieces, his scheme must be grander.
Wait a minute! Xiao Jie suddenly glanced at Chen Tianwen; he recalled that Chen Tianwen once said Divine Calculation Sky Demon would surely team up with either Long Wushang or Wang Xie, targeting one to ally with the other.
Could it be—it has to be!
Xiao Jie immediately connected these two doubts.
Divine Calculation Sky Demon is teaming up with Wang Xie! That’s why he knows the formation layout so well.
Since Wen Tian Wuji is cultivating formation talents for the Pantheon, Divine Calculation Sky Demon’s understanding of formations certainly wouldn’t be that strong, only Wang Xie deliberately told him could he provide such detailed information.
Wang Xie deliberately tells Divine Calculation Sky Demon, and Divine Calculation Sky Demon deliberately tells Chen Tianwen, so Wang Xie deliberately wants the Alliance Army to break into the formation, to kill Long Wushang and himself?
They’re setting up Long Wushang!
With Wang Xie’s capability, at the crucial moment, directly teleporting to escape is indeed easy. Then the Five True People deal with Long Wushang and Beihai Demon Dragon, naturally, the odds are high.
As for Wang Xie’s plan—Demon Talismans!
Xiao Jie’s mind recalled those giant Demon Talismans he saw in the Ten Extremes Formation. Originally he thought these things were meant for dealing with the Alliance Army, but now it seems these Demon Talismans are targeted at the Four True People and Long Wushang,
Demon Talismans can transform people into demons; this transformative ability is effective not only on the living but also on the dead.
In this conspiracy, be it the Four True People or Long Wushang, they are equally chess pieces,
Wang Xie would never stay in the middle and live or die with Long Wushang; he would flee, leaving Long Wushang to confront Beihai Demon Dragon and the Four True People fiercely.
Once the sides determine victory or defeat, the loser dies, and the victor’s strength undoubtedly greatly reduced; at this time, Wang Xie can use Demon Talismans to resurrect the dead as demons and then join the battle himself. Thus, no matter who wins, they will be obliterated by demons + Wang Xie’s combination.
And those who are obliterated will be converted into demons again, thus Wang Xie controls everything, smashing all the chess pieces, and with no pieces left, the entire chessboard naturally gets destroyed.
And for Divine Calculation Sky Demon, as long as there is BOSS loot, it’s enough, as for whether he gets resurrected into a demon, he does not care at all.
Thus, both Divine Calculation Sky Demon and Wang Xie’s schemes can be achieved.
Yes, this must be it, Divine Calculation Sky Demon and Wang Xie certainly have an agreement.
The more Xiao Jie thought, the more he felt this is the case, the more he thought, the more frightened he was; these two old schemers had fooled everyone.
If he hadn’t realized this, rashly joining the battle would mean getting harmed together.
But now a new problem arises, now that he knows Wang Xie’s plan, how should he use it?
Directly tell the Five True People, or perhaps...
He pondered for a long time, a bold plan gradually formed in his mind.
The face behind the screen couldn’t help but show a trace of confidence and determination.
"What’s up, Feng, what’s going on? Do we sign up or not?"
"No, we have other activities," Xiao Jie said with a slight smile, "Brother Tianwen, can you trust me?"
Chen Tianwen was slightly stunned, "Certainly, I trust you."
"Then would you be willing to take a gamble with us?"
"Why bother to gamble, anyway we can sit back and benefit?"
"If you don’t gamble, your ascension item will likely be lost," Xiao Jie said, outlining his plan.
Chen Tianwen listened in disbelief, "You are crazy, you are absolutely crazy."
"Wanting to become immortal, how can it work without taking a gamble? Of course, if you aren’t interested, then forget it, anyway, I have my Immortal Dao path, but your ascension item will likely be lost."
Xiao Jie certainly doesn’t wish to settle easily. Without the third Dragon Ball, he can’t perform Dragon Transformation, and without Dragon Transformation, facing Red Dust is tough.
This battle must be won.
But if he wants Chen Tianwen to personally enter the field, he must give the other party some pressure.
Otherwise, with Chen Tianwen’s character, he would surely sit firmly on the sideline.
Chen Tianwen pondered for a moment, suddenly laughed, "Haha, I understand, fine, I shall risk my life to accompany you."
