Battle Overture in the Darkness

It was as if God had turned off the lights, and the world was plunged into darkness in an instant.

It was pitch black... I couldn't see my hand in front of my face... It was completely dark.

In the boundless, deep darkness, only the flickering light of the alcohol lamp simmering beneath the hot pot could be seen.

As the saying goes, a single spark can start a prairie fire.

After a moment of silence, a candlelight flickered in the darkness, illuminating Ink-Stained Crystal's largely expressionless Poker face.

"It's just getting dark, there's no need to be afraid."

Looking at the various expressions on the faces of the people before her, she spoke calmly.

However, due to her long silver hair and her slightly pale face, perhaps due to her Constitution, she looked like a Female Ghost. Especially in this extremely dark and pitch-black environment, saying such things was not very convincing... For example, Young Feather was successfully startled.

"Could you please not do that suddenly again? It's really scary!"

After seeing Ink-Stained Crystal's face clearly, Young Feather inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief and began to speak to her with a righteous and stern expression.

"I don't know if it's scary or not, but could you please get off the table first?"

Looking up at Young Feather, who had somehow jumped onto the table, Bai Zhi's gaze held a rather subtle expression for a moment.

"This is the table for dinner later... Are you a Monkey?"

"Well..."

"This is night in this world, arriving abruptly without any transition from light to darkness."

Ink-Stained Crystal placed the candles she had prepared beforehand on the Coffee Table and began to explain in a calm tone.

"My personal fighting style favors assassinations in the dark. Copy a copy of that map for me; I'll be out fighting all night. With this rare and detailed intelligence, we can end this war within three days."

"The transition from day to night is abrupt, but what about the transition from night to day?"

Without answering Ink-Stained Crystal's request, Bai Zhi walked to the window and glanced at the Tian Kong, looking thoughtful.

"So, is the transition from night to day also such an abrupt change?"

The world was shrouded in darkness.

It was pitch black outside... This wasn't an exaggeration. Bai Zhi put his hand into the darkness and waved it, and sure enough, he couldn't see any fingers. It was as if his hand had been swallowed up by the darkness.

--Pitch black.

"That's right, that's exactly it. What, have you made some new discovery?"

Ink-Stained Crystal gaze flickered slightly before she turned to look at Bai Zhi.

"I noticed it's very dark... By the way, are you sure you can manage by yourself?"

Turning to look at the Silver-haired Girl in front of him, Bai Zhi raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Going out to assassinate at night is a good option, but if you're not careful and get surrounded, there's a lot of risk involved, isn't there?"

"War has begun in places we cannot see."

Reaching out to touch the Jade Straight Blade at his waist, Ink-Stained Crystal spoke calmly.

"If we don't try to gain a bigger advantage in the early stages, we won't be able to fight them once they reach the late game. And with that most detailed first-hand information, the probability of any risks is not high."

I have something to say.

At this moment, OriginDeficit couldn't help but speak up.

"If you leave, what will happen to the two of us? Logically speaking, in this dark environment, shouldn't Dominator from other areas also come to our area? War is a two-way street."

In the war between the Dominators, Racial Core are the key, since once Racial Core are taken, the ruler is automatically eliminated.

Therefore, generally speaking, those Dominators rarely leave their buildings; the fighting usually takes place among their Soldier.

The strength of Dominator is not much stronger than that of common. For example, the Five Dominators that Ink-Stained Crystal killed before were mainly spent on clearing out those annoying Soldier.

"Don't worry, I have a Trump Card here."

Shrugging, Bai Zhi turned and walked towards the hot pot.

"And all the Soldier we have will be there to protect you. Even if you encounter some invincible expert, you can rest assured... Come on, let's eat!"

"..."

Those who work hard are people of Soul of a Foodie; those who work hard are the best of the best.

Dark Night for Killing, Windy Day for Arson.

After finishing their meal, Bai Zhi and Ink-Stained Crystal discussed the matter briefly and then each chose an area to work separately in order to maximize efficiency.

After all, it's only the first night. Perhaps the Dominator in other areas have already decided the victors, but the extent to which they Enhancement the Racial Core is quite limited. Given the premise of having a complete grasp of all the opponent's intelligence and weaknesses, efficiency is naturally the priority.

The city is divided into Nine Regions, each with Nine Dominators. Bai Zhi and his team's goal tonight is to eliminate at least two districts.

As for the [Essmor Yacht], Bai Zhi also gave it to Ink-Stained Crystal, since although the other party was skilled in assassination, she was still lacking in travel skills.

As for Bai Zhi himself, with [Anna's Plush Cat] by his side, although his actual speed couldn't match that of the ship, Bai Zhi's speed was actually faster for Plush Cat that could roam freely in any terrain and at high altitudes.

Furthermore, due to the Plush Cat's ability to defy gravity, it will not make any sound while moving, making it the perfect camouflage under the cover of Boundless Night.

However, Bai Zhi did not set off immediately. Out of caution, he first rode the Plush Cat around the two buildings that belonged to him and Ink-Stained Crystal.

The Eagle Eye Special Effect provided by Pluto also gives the book night vision capabilities, not to mention the Night Vision Goggles in his Inventory.

He wasn't actually slacking off; he was completing the necessary arrangements.

One of the loot items I obtained from the hotel was the [Full Appearance Mirror]. Its Special Effect is that after reflecting the entire area with the mirror, it automatically creates an Independent Space.

Previously, the Shadow Guard had been diligently and conscientiously carrying out the work with this palm-sized mirror; he was merely finishing up the remaining tasks.

Although the preparation for using this item is quite tedious, its Special Effect are surprisingly powerful, making it ideal for defense.

Although the consumption of 100 points of Spiritual Energy Value per minute is astonishing, it is only consumed after the Mirror Space is activated, so its Spiritual Energy Value are actually quite significant.

"... Hopefully we won't need this thing."

Standing on the Plush Cat, Bai Zhi glanced at the mirror in his hand and let out a slight breath.

At this moment, he Perception that two Mirror Space related to this building had been successfully created. If needed, he could replace them with scenes from the Real World at any time with a thought, making them quite useful.

"Although according to Murphy's Law, things we hope we'll never need often end up being needed..."
