Although the nine cities had been teleported simultaneously, they had not landed in the same location.
All means of communication here had been cut off by some force.
It had been mentioned before that the terrain and environment of the New Battlefield were generated at random.
But was that really the case?
At least part of it was true.
First, the terrain and environment were indeed randomly generated.
However, two factors remained eternally unchanged: the distribution of the cities and their landing spots.
The former meant that the cities would not be clustered in one place and would instead be arranged neatly according to a certain pattern.
Moreover, aside from the order being fixed, Yue Fei could decide which city landed at which point.
In other words, Yue Fei's main city underfoot occupied the foremost position, with two Branch cities at each diagonal to its left and right.
At the same time, two other main cities stood directly behind him, lined up with the imperial city at the Frontline.
Viewed from above, the four cities connected from left to right, forming a flattened diamond shape.
The main city in the middle could likewise form a pincer formation with the Branch cities on either side.
The final main city, however, could not.
With only three points of support, that main city could only form a triangle with the other two Branch cities.
The cities on both sides followed the same arrangement, locked in a standoff much like Summoner's Rift.
If not for these reasons, Yue Fei would never have concentrated his forces in one place.
Nor would he have dispatched part of the forces from Big Dipper, Zodiac, Soul Beasts, the Sun, and the Bounty Hunter Guild all at once.
"Niu Gao, take your men out through the south gate."
