But the C13 Zone was different.
The recent zone merger had not torn the C13 Zone apart. Instead, under the military deterrence of the Expedition Alliance and Su Ye himself, it had become a tightly unified whole under highly centralized control.
Now, every battle group in the C13 Zone, large or small, had submitted, and even solo players were willing to follow orders.
At a single command from the Expedition Alliance, nearly a million people across the zone could operate like a seamlessly integrated war machine.
"Besides..."
Su Ye's gaze fell on the last two event rules, and a cold glint flashed through his eyes.
Connecting passages between the five zones would open, and Expedition Cards could be used to hunt players across zones!
Since the rules used the total mileage of surviving players as the scoring criterion, flooring the accelerator had never been the only way to widen the gap.
If the C13 Zone's total mileage really fell behind toward the end of the event, he could simply use an Expedition Card and personally enter the roads of the other four zones.
To defeat the enemy, strike down their leader first. He would specifically target high-mileage players near the top of their zones' individual rankings.
Every high-mileage player he eliminated would instantly deduct that player's mileage from their zone's total.
With each kill, three months of that player's efforts would vanish into nothing.
Those outside his own ranks could never be trusted to share his interests.
Since the rules permitted hunting, those players from other zones were nothing more than strings of data waiting to be harvested at the tip of his spear.
"Also, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to milk the market."
Five major zones, five million players!
That was an enormous, untapped field of customers ripe for
