Who's in the mood to play anymore?

Upon hearing Machine Spirit's words, the two groups, who had been full of fighting spirit, felt like they had been made fools of.

Although this monkey was kind-hearted and even knew how to play music for them to relieve their boredom.

But ultimately, I'm still very unhappy.

Many of the Soul Returner have already recognized the King of Fall Resistance, I Guess and have begun whispering among themselves in their native tongue from this other world:

"Why is the King of Fall Resistance, I Guess playing music?"

Didn't you see he had a private band with him?

"I mean, why does it play music?"

"Maybe he learned about the history of film from somewhere."

"It's not that complicated. Opera exists in this world too."

"That kid really got a good time."

"I think the Machine Spirit are doing better than us."

"That's true, after all, I don't think it needs to eat anything."

"Yes, what do you want to eat?"

Some skeleton soldiers clearly noticed this unusual scene, and one of the skeleton soldier squad leaders took the initiative to ask [ Mules and Horses Drive the Sun ] beside him:

Do you know the person on that machine?

I don't know the band [ Mules and Horses Drive the Sun ], but I'm quite familiar with the mobile stage.

But on the surface, he remained calm and composed, simply waving his hand and saying:

"Irrelevant."

After noticing that neither group was making any noise, the King of Fall Resistance, I Guess also fell into deep thought.

Standing on his "back," the lead singer of the band at the very top, also seemed to realize something and earnestly said to Machine Spirit:

"Dude, with us keeping an eye on things, they won't be able to make a move."

"Is that so?"

"How can we get them to fight?"

The band's lead singer thought for a moment and said:

"How about we add some prize money for them?"

What is a prize?

"It's a reward."

"But I don't feel like I have any rewards to give them."

No, you can.

Although the band's lead singer is a complete non-combat player, that doesn't stop him from really enjoying joining in the fun.

Since we're already here, wouldn't it be a waste not to fight another match?

So he thought about it and gave his suggestion to the King of Fall Resistance, I Guess:

Do you know why they haven't rushed over and beaten you up yet?

"Because we're in cahoots?"

"That's irrelevant— the Soul Returner are all in the same group, aren't they still killing each other right now?"

Why is that?

"Of course it's because you're strong enough. A Middle Tier fortress that looks like a giant cloud—who wouldn't avoid it?"

The band's lead singer explained:

"Tell them you'll watch the cavalry charge, and whoever wins, you'll join their side. They'll definitely fight tooth and nail to get you."

"Oh, so what should I do after they start fighting?"

"Yes, of course, I'm here to watch the show."

The lead singer thought for a moment and then added:

"However, you can also try to break up the fight, for example, by driving over and saying something like, 'Stop fighting!'"

That sounds interesting.

The King of Fall Resistance, I Guess" readily accepted, then added a reminder:

"But you forgot to turn off the amplification array."

"Um?"

The band's lead singer had just put down his water glass and looked up when he saw nearly a hundred people still alive on both sides glaring at him angrily.

"Well, friends, that can be explained."

The band's lead singer approached the Psionic Energy artifact, which had been specially designed to resemble a microphone, and shouted:

"I'm just a lead singer passing by, what do you want to hear? I can also sing 'The Grenadier's March,' and 'Dry Land Boating' isn't out of the question either..."

"When!"

A javelin struck precisely the top deck of the King of Fall Resistance, I Guess.

For the Machine Spirit, such a minor injury was no different from a barb, but the spear thrown only a meter away from the band's lead singer clearly startled the latter.

"Run! Run!"

Without any prompting from the players, the King of Fall Resistance, I Guess had already begun to accelerate and quickly disappeared on the other side of the sand dune.

The Machine Spirit felt no regret whatsoever.

Fighting is taking place everywhere along the entire border; it has witnessed such scenes seven or eight times in the past few days.

As long as you keep heading south, there are plenty of exciting things to come!

The mobile fortress, which had been like a commercial break, finally disappeared. [ Western Sharpshooter ] and [ Elderly and Children Fly First ], now free from interference, wanted to continue their unfinished battle, only to find that the "energy" that had sustained them was gone.

This feeling is like being halfway through "serious business" when you suddenly receive a work call; the only word to describe it is "down."

[ Western Sharpshooter ] raised his hands to indicate he meant no harm, and took the lead to the opposite front line, finding [ Elderly and Children Fly First ] and earnestly saying:

"How about we do this for now? Everyone collect the bodies and then we retreat."

[ Elderly and Children Fly First ] After thinking for a moment, he said:

"Okay, but let me clarify first: is it an exchange of bodies, or are we retrieving them separately?"

The [ Western Sharpshooter ] was stunned, because he realized a fact—

This matter really can't be left like this, because if we only bring back the bodies of our own family members, then it can't be considered a victory no matter what.

However, if he only brought back the enemy's corpse, he couldn't explain today's battle clearly. After all, he had even killed one of the skeleton captains. If he lost, Colin might just give him a taste of the knight's sword.

"Well, it seems like only one side can leave standing up today."

"That's what I think too."

Two minutes later, on the battlefield without background music, the cavalry of both sides began their final charge.

The battle ended in victory for the Skeleton Alliance, also known as the [ Western Sharpshooter ]. In any case, the hundred skeleton riders ultimately made up for the shortage of Soul Returner.

Even if it's two skeleton soldiers against one Soul Returner, the Skeleton Alliance still has the numerical advantage. Moreover, when everyone is fully armored and on horseback, the difference in combat power isn't as significant as one might imagine.

[ Elderly and Children Fly First ] The final act was a classic knight charge, ending in a heroic death as he fell amidst the piercing of countless skeleton soldiers.

Some of the Imperial Soul Returner, seeing the situation was turning against them, ultimately chose to retreat, as someone still needed to go back and report the news.

Meanwhile, a dozen or so others became "pragmatic" and surrendered with their hands raised in a very flexible manner.

[ Western Sharpshooter ] only then realized that the official version had added the functions of capturing prisoners and forcibly changing to a second faction for players, so he happily led the group of prisoners back to Sandcastle Number Fourteen.

As soon as the group entered the sandcastle's perimeter, they discovered that nearly a hundred skeleton soldiers on the walls had set up Alliance- standard crossbows.

Colin stood in the center of the crowd, loudly demanding to know why the [ Western Sharpshooter ] had killed his own men without authorization.

"That old bastard really could sense it. I wonder who developed this secret technique for dealing with these skeletons."

After making a comment in the small group, [ Western Sharpshooter ] immediately rode forward, still with a respectful demeanor.
