Chapter 294 Fighting Without Hesitation
"Two supply points, one in the darkest part of the map and one in the brightest part. Good, good, good, they're even creating a contrast. Ziye, which one should we go to?"
"The Darkest Horizon is a good command for the Myriad Absolutes Academy. If they want to participate and get more points, they will come to the Darkest Horizon map."
"So what if it's extremely dark? Let's go! There are plenty of us, we're not afraid."
—Darkest Map—
"This supply point is really remote. This map is pitch black. Why not go to the extremely bright map? That map seems pretty good; it's always lit up, so you don't need to use any lights."
Li Ling turned on the light on the communicator.
This time, Jiang He didn't take out the oversized flashlight for illumination.
This time, she and Wan Qiziye had the same idea.
The map is extremely dark; from the point where you enter the map, it is pitch black, so dark you can't see your hand in front of your face.
Besides black, there are other debuffs such as black fog.
In the darkness and fog, visibility was only about five meters, even with the communicator's light.
Li Ling was having a bit of a headache as she tried to figure out the road conditions. Besides flat ground, there were also various small hills around here.
Shangguan Linghu, who often plays holographic games, glanced at the shooting games she usually plays. She looked in Zhu Yi's direction. If Zhu Yi was playing sniper and there was no fog of war, it would be a perfect map for headshots.
"The extremely dark map is indeed suitable for chaotic battles and ambushes; it feels like a map specifically designed for fighting."
"Fight? Besides us and the other three universities, which university would be so bold as to actually come and steal our supplies? If it weren't for the fact that there are so many of us in our team, I would definitely stay far away from here." Helian Fenghua suddenly thought of the college entrance examination.
Back then, it was the college entrance exam, and the team competition with ten people per team was already quite a challenge for her. If she hadn't fallen into the hole, she was afraid that she would have been caught by Huang Xi's crazy team.
"Let's get to the vicinity of the supply point first. Li Ling, be careful to clear the mines."
"okay."
Even after the cultivators from Wanjue Academy and Jingxu Academy left the secret realm, Hai Chongkong and the others did not choose to leave, and Jin Dazhu's team still maintained a size of 257 people.
Jiang He had a cooperation message sent by Hai Chongkong on her communicator.
Hai Chongkong is neither the commander nor the leader of Jingxu Academy, and cannot represent Jingxu Academy at all.
Therefore, the cooperation was between the two teams, and Jiang He agreed to the cooperation, which was still the 70/30 cooperation model.
If Wanjue Academy wants to maintain its lead over other academies, besides monsters, it also needs dungeon points. Jiang He can use all three academies as "health packs".
She and Hai Chongkong didn't trust each other much, but they were bound by shared interests, making them the closest of partners.
As for the others from Jingxu Academy, they would fight without hesitation if they encountered them.
Hai Chongkong was fully aware of the matter, but he wasn't worried at all about betraying his teammates in order to cling to a powerful figure.
If their leader were to cooperate with Ling Qing, it would be like having two paths to take. Regardless of which side wins, they, the Void Realm, would gain something.
However, he prefers to buy the stock of Wanjue Academy.
Looking at the cooperation between Jingxu Academy and Xiling Academy on the communication device, Hai Chongkong knew that Jingxu would choose one side, but he did not expect that Jingxu would choose Xiling.
Hai Chongkong overestimated their leader and commander; the best outcome of cooperating with Xiling Academy was only securing third place.
In this collaboration with Xiling Academy, if they want to get second place, Lingqing Academy and Wanjue Academy will have to be completely wiped out. Otherwise, it won't be their turn.
This is a major competition among universities; even if we can't win first place, we should at least get second.
Otherwise, it would be a waste of time to participate. Even being second place all the time sounds better than being third place all the time.
Jiang He and Hai Chongkong had just finished discussing the cooperation details over the phone.
Li Ling crouched low, dodging the assassins' pursuit, and returned to her group to glance at Hai Chongkong.
Jiang He noticed that Li Ling's expression was off, and she also looked at Hai Chongkong:
"It's alright, Hai Chongkong, we're on our side."
"That's good. I just went ahead to scout and encountered assassins from both Xiling Academy and Jingxu Academy. The total number of the two teams is unclear, but excluding those behind the hill, the total number is around 180."
The cultivators from the Jingxu Academy in the group fell silent upon hearing this, a rare occurrence.
Jin Dazhu glanced at Jiang He and then at Hai Chongkong.
This is just too much of a coincidence.
Ye Qing's eyes widened slightly upon hearing Li Ling's words; she was incredibly conflicted.
Actually, Yu Quanjing was her senior.
However, she also knew that she was now on the side of Wanjue Academy. Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to reconcile. Could this be considered a game between morality and interests?
In fact, Ye Qing knew that this was not difficult to calculate. They followed Jiang He to kill a wave of demons, then dealt with a wave of Ling Qing cultivators, and then were incredibly lucky to encounter a hidden dungeon.
Although the process was a bit dangerous, the key was that she got the points and also obtained a key to unlock a hidden dungeon. Anyone would be more inclined to side with Jiang He in that situation.
Ye Qing slowly breathed a sigh of relief. She really couldn't bear to swing her sword at her teammate, but one thing was certain: she had a lot of points, so she couldn't die and had to help Wanjue Academy.
With this in mind, Ye Qing's attitude became much more resolute, and she opened her communicator to contact Yu Quanjing.
"Commander, should we fight or not?"
Zhong Liyu was excited, and his sword was already ready.
"Fight! Of course we'll fight!"
Jiang He smiled slightly as she touched the hilt of her sword. The number of people involved in the collaboration between Xiling Academy and Jingxu Academy was still within an acceptable range.
Hai Chongkong and his fifty-odd men have already sided with them, and now Ye Qing has even managed to find out almost the exact distribution of personnel on both sides.
Ye Qing sent a picture to Jiang He, using the excuse of coming to seek refuge with Yu Quanjing to get Yu Quanjing to guess the distribution of personnel in Xiling and Jingxu on the polar night map.
As soon as she finished sending the message, Jiang He immediately formulated a relevant strategy.
It would be a waste not to use the terrain of extremely dark maps for guerrilla warfare.
Jiang He divided the more than two hundred people into about ten groups, with Bai Zhizhou leading the way.
On the other side, Yu Quanjing had just confirmed the arrival of Ye Qing and her group when she continued her negotiations with Lan Yingshu.
This time, Xiling cooperated with Jingxu, and Xiling had the upper hand. If Ye Qing had brought people, the situation would have been different.
Lan Yingshu's impetuous nature was somewhat tempered under Lu Xiaoxiao's strong insistence:
Are you sure your team can field another fifty players?
Yu Quanjing nodded:
"I'm sure and sure."
"Alright, no more talk, let's split it 50/50..."
Before Lan Yingshu could finish speaking, several assassins standing beside them who had been chasing the suspicious cultivator were killed one after another by having their heads blown off.
Startled, Lan Yingshu took a large step back.
"Everyone, be on alert! Enemy attack!"
