Gathering to Set Out

Thanks to the sharing by the Great Qin Guild, the top tier of the game quickly entered the elite era.

However, they found that even as elites, they still struggled to deal with the Insectoid in Starry Sky.

Every time the Mutant Insect appear in Starry Sky, a massive number of cannon fodder go first, followed by elite Mutant Insect hiding in the Swarm to strike the enemy.

Player are not NPCs; they currently lack understanding of the various Mutant Insect, so in the current skirmishes, Player generally lose more than they win.

Currently, the only Future that possesses the powerful weapon that is Old Wang can break through the interstellar Outpost and push humanity's exploration progress outward.

However, the Future is limited in manpower, and they are facing an endless army of Insectoid, even Old Wang is powerless to stop them.

Even other guilds, including the guild Alliance, were suppressed by the Mutant Insect and confined to their Outpost Star, unable to fly out at all.

The progress of the Starry Sky exploration is underwhelming. Neither Old Wang nor the guild Alliance is in a hurry, but some people are getting anxious.

These people are the military forces represented by Leng Feng. To Lao Wang and Old Wang group, the Star Spirit are just a group of NPCs who issue missions, but to those above them, they represent brand-new technology.

In particular, Old Wang's statement that his Molten Lava radar couldn't detect the Star Spirit ships at all has caused some concern among certain individuals.

The sooner they open up the air route, the sooner they can make contact with the Star Spirit and learn new technologies.

"I've called you all here for no other reason than to form a pioneering team."

"Let's try to open up a star path between the Starry Sky Outpost and the second Planet, and push the game's progress forward," Leng Feng said to everyone.

He contacted all the game guilds early in the morning, leaving no one out.

The gaming guilds also showed great respect to Leng Feng, arriving at the scene early.

Old Wang and his group were also present this time, since this was a gathering organized by the military on behalf of Leng Feng, not by any of the major guilds.

"What exactly are the regulations?" Wang Xinghe asked.

"Good question. Our plan is that each company will send one thousand elites, and those that don't have one thousand elites will send as many as they have."

"And with the support forces of each unit working together, we will make a concerted effort to open up this star path to the next Planet!" Leng Feng.

"Who's in command?" Yang Wanli.

"Of course, each organization will send out its own top commander to form a command center, but the lead will be our Teacher Zhang!" Leng Feng.

After he finished speaking, a handsome man with glasses and gray hair stood up and greeted everyone. Everyone immediately straightened their posture and nodded slightly in return.

Teacher Zhang is the commander-in-chief of the military guild. He's not from the gaming world; he's a true battlefield commander.

In the game, his abilities might not be stronger Liao Wuhen's, but no one had any objection to him being the commander-in-chief; this was a testament to their trust in his character.

"How will the spoils be distributed?" another person asked.

"What you kill yourself, you keep; what everyone kills, we'll distribute according to need; if the needs are the same, we'll distribute according to contribution!" Leng Feng.

Afterwards, everyone asked a lot of questions, and Leng Feng answered them all truthfully.

Everyone seemed to have no objections to this collaboration, as it was a win-win situation for everyone.

But only one guild remained silent throughout the entire meeting; they even closed their eyes to rest in their seats.

"What's the point of having a gambler like you, President Thousand King? I've noticed you haven't said a word!" Leng Feng finally finished dealing with the others and began to tackle this tough nut to crack.

"How do we calculate the losses from the total annihilation?" Upon hearing Leng Feng's words, Old Wang opened his eyes and looked at him, asking.

"You don't think our operation is going well?" Leng Feng asked doubtfully.

Future that their own guild has already completed one-third of the progress, they actually don't have a positive outlook on the collaboration of the entire game's guilds.

"I'm not too optimistic, but I'll still participate. However, we need to agree on how to handle a total wipeout first, to avoid further losses due to lawsuits on the battlefield," Old Wang said frankly.

"It's laughable that the Future Guild can clear 1/3 of the progress on its own and then thinks that all of us guilds will be wiped out if we join forces!" A member of the Ten Thousand Miles Guild said mockingly.

"Do you know why your Ten Thousand Miles can't even fly out to the Outpost? It's because of your ignorant and fearless spirit!" Old Wang retorted directly.

"You..."

"What do you mean, 'you'? You want a one-on-one fight?" Old Wang said with a Taunt look.

That one sentence shut the guy up, because he didn't dare to fight Old Wang one-on-one, and in fact, no one in the entire game dared to fight Old Wang one-on-one.

"Mr. Wang, would you like to share it?" Leng Feng.

"Of course I don't mind. Before I share, I'd like to ask if any of you know anything about the Insectoid?" Wang Qianduo asked.

"We don't understand," some said with shame. Yes! They still don't know much about their opponents.

"Beautiful, but I don't know anything about it!" Old Wang.

Everyone: "..."

So, what do you mean by "mua~"?

"I just wanted to remind you to understand your opponents. I may not know much about the Mutant Insect, but I do know the Legendary!" Old Wang said seriously after a bit of banter.

"Legendary?"

"That's right, according to the Legendary. Judging from the color of your names, you have already become elites. Above elites are Chief, and then Lord. We can deduce these from the monsters' levels."

After the Lord comes the Legendary rank, and the difference between the Legendary and Lord Tier is enormous.

"If we're facing a level 60 Lord Boss, we might be able to kill it if we try, but if we're facing a Legendary boss, it won't even give us a chance to make a move," Old Wang continued.

"Is it because of the Legendary Domain?" one of them asked.

"There's actually someone who knows about the Domain! Let's give him a round of applause!"

However, he was only right about part of it; another point is the Special Ability they awakened after becoming Legendary.

These abilities are incredibly diverse, and each combination is different, making them impossible to defend against!

"If our strength is compared to that of Legendary, we can only wait to die," Old Wang.

"Are we bound to encounter Legendary? How many Legendary does the Swarm have?"

"Currently, there are only 14 known units, and there may be hundreds or even thousands of unknown Legendary units," Old Wang.

The fourteen he mentioned refer to 13 Leviathan King and one Swarm Overmind. This is the 14 Legendary that Old Wang confirmed, and there will definitely be others as well.

Otherwise, how could they possibly fight on two fronts against both the Star Spirit and humans, suppressing them to the point where they could only defend themselves?

Old Wang's words silenced everyone; they hadn't expected their opponent to be so terrifying.

"So you think we should continue this operation?" Leng Feng.

"Of course I do, but there are a few points I'd like to clarify."

First, no one should be afraid of dying during this operation. Those who are afraid of dying should insure any items they are worried about losing, or simply not bring them at all.

Secondly, this is just an attempt. If it succeeds, all the better. If it doesn't, I hope you won't be discouraged. Just consider it an opportunity to learn about the Insectoid.

Third, and most importantly, never let yourself be Insectoid alive by the Zerg!

After Old Wang finished speaking, he sat down. The third point was something he made up to appear sophisticated.

"Alright, since everyone agrees, let's go back and start preparing. We'll meet at the Outpost in two hours!" Leng Feng.

After Leng Feng finished speaking, all the guilds immediately began to return and regroup.

The gathering of hundreds of guilds at Starry Sky Outpost made Normal Player of the game realize that they were about to make a big move.

It wasn't that Leng Feng and the others looked down on the skilled players among Normal Player; it was simply that they were difficult to contact!

Instead of contacting them one by one, it's much easier to just contact them all through the guild!

They quickly assembled, but only the Future Starry Sky Battleship arrived.

"Didn't you say the Swarm was extremely dangerous, and we could be wiped out? Why are we still using the Starship?" the group asked, puzzled.

"That's precisely because it's easy to be wiped out, okay? If we don't use Starship, we won't even have a chance to escape if we can't hold them off. With Starship, we still have the possibility of Space Leap," Old Wang said matter-of-factly.

"And..."

"And what?"

"Besides, I Future have three Starship; we can afford to lose them!" Old Wang.

Everyone: "..."

They asked, noting that not only would there be three Starship in the Future, but their costs wouldn't be high either, since their core components were all rewards.

Thinking of this, everyone felt envious, but they didn't go and bring their own guild's Starship because they couldn't afford the loss.

For smaller guilds, if their Starship explodes, the guild will inevitably disband, without a doubt.

After this little incident, the group set off in a grand procession, with various Mecha and small spaceships blotting out the sky, but no one knew how it would end.
