As topics related to Zhu Ri Zhi Di, the Mechanical Legion, and more exploded in popularity on the forums.
A spontaneous mass migration across maps began.
Regional Chat Channel (Emperor's Tomb Mountain Range):
"Brothers, we're transferring to the Emperor's Tomb Mountain Range to teach our old friends, the Mechanical Legion, a lesson. The topic is: 'A player's revenge is never too late.'"
"We can't beat demigods, but there's no problem with farming a ton of Sacrificial Power, right?"
"The units showing up now are all basic-level, and many of them don't even count as war forces. There's no pressure. We'll transfer over and roll right through them, so our fellow countrymen can see how strong we are. Time to show off!"
As several allied battle groups transferred over, Di Nian Bully, hovering atop the Evil Eye Tower, remained completely calm.
Based on past experience, those beastly players were about to leave for a while again.
As the players withdrew, Di Nian Bully decisively manipulated the black mist to retreat. He made no attempt to stop them and let them pass, refusing to create trouble for himself.
"A wonderful vacation has begun." The Evil Eye's slightly wistful voice rang out in Di Nian Bully's mind.
"Hopefully they'll never come back." Di Nian Bully fixed his gaze on the withdrawing player army and grumbled.
"Based on previous cases, the probability that players will return from vacation is... 99.99%, and they'll very likely be stronger."
"Enough analyzing. Shut up."
"Understood, boss. Enjoy your vacation." The Evil Eye closed its eyes.
