On November 30th, [ Ginseng Rooster ] experienced countless ups and downs in just one day.
He participated in the Demon Realm world war that broke out this afternoon, occupying the niche of a writing advisor or a cunning strategist.
At first, he was just a simple war correspondent. Later, when the horde of Blood Corpse attacked the front line, this "civilian official" had no choice but to pick up a knife and fight to the death with the enemy.
Later, they initially repelled the invading group of Blood Corpse, and [ Ginseng Rooster ] returned to being a war correspondent.
Before he could be happy for long, Rosalind swallowed him whole because he was too close to High Tier battle.
The [ Ginseng Rooster ], which would have turned into blood in no time, did not choose to revive, because according to the style of the game " World of Disorder," it would not torture the player to death.
Perhaps the key lies in the plot reaching a crucial juncture, or perhaps a certain amount of time must elapse before war can begin.
In short, the Resurrection Tree will definitely respawn.
As for why not just plant one yourself...
The land of the Demon Realm is too barren; only the Resurrection Tree, which Planting by Ed himself according to the system's design, can truly rise from the ground.
If players are forced to grow it themselves, it might take at least three to five months, if not a year and a half.
The underground battle in Klaf City a few months ago was a case in point; if it weren't for the mass suicides of those players that provided nourishment for the Temporary Resurrection Tree, reinforcements would never have arrived so quickly.
But this method didn't work this time, because the Soul Returner in this battle were all scattered among the skeletons and couldn't be gathered in large numbers in a short time.
On the other hand, the skeletons didn't consider the Soul Returner as their own, and the Soul Returner naturally treated the skeletons as ordinary NPCs.
Given the level of intelligence of the NPCs in " World of Disorder," how could we possibly reveal such a huge secret to them?
People usually use Temporary Resurrection Tree by secretly planting them in a corner of the battlefield!
In the end, Ed did not disappoint the Soul Returner ' expectations; a giant Resurrection Tree soon appeared in a relatively safe location on the edge of the battlefield.
Meanwhile, the [ Ginseng Rooster ], who had been watching the battle for half a day, quickly entered the tree in spirit form and completed its resurrection.
By the time he was resurrected, Grand Duchess Rosalind and Councilor [ Whale Tail ] had withdrawn from the battle, and even from the biosphere.
The King of Domination descended from the sky, instantly killed the unsuspecting York, and then the second wave of the battle began.
[ Ginseng Rooster ] quickly found Colin, thankfully the guy was still alive.
Colin was surprised that [ Ginseng Rooster ] had revived so quickly, but he didn't say anything and simply pulled him back into the battlefield.
After experiencing [ Divine Wings ]'s flashbang, Sailesi's illusionary AoE, and various strange aftershocks, the battle between the High Tier finally came to an end.
Although the Blood Corpse still littered the mountains and the battlefield still stretched as far as the eye could see, at least the Blood Pool beneath their feet was drying up rapidly at a visible pace.
Good, it's good that there aren't any High Tier.
[ The Ginseng Rooster ] This is a heartfelt remark.
Before he could do anything, Ed's update announcement popped up in front of him.
After a brief reading, [ the Ginseng Rooster ] found it completely unsurprising.
Ed, or Theocracy, successfully stole—no, not stole, but (emphasis) the spoils of victory—in the midst of the great chaos. Was that really anything unexpected?
If the answer is yes, then it only means that the player doesn't understand the Theocracy enough.
However, [ Ginseng Rooster ] believes he has a very good understanding of the players' factions.
Whether it was always like this or, like Seraphina and Duma, it was significantly influenced by the players, in [ Ginseng Rooster's ] opinion, Ed's behavior has also gradually become chaotic.
With players having different ways of doing things, the only possible outcomes are "medium win", "big win", and "super big win"!
[ Ginseng Rooster ] can serve as a testimonial on this point.
So, after everything seemed to have settled down, the desires in [ Ginseng Rooster ]'s heart inevitably rose again.
Of the three councilors, [ Divine Wings ] died, [ Whale Tail ] died, and [ Nether Crossing ] ran away.
Of the two High Tier warlords, Palmer died, and Osmond also died.
The strongest of the remaining warlords was only at the Upper Middle Tier.
However, as long as one does not reach High Tier, one's abilities will not undergo a qualitative change, and one can be overwhelmed by sheer numbers.
With this in mind, [ Ginseng Rooster ]'s idea became increasingly clear:
Osmond handed his team over to Palmer.
Palmer handed both teams over to Colin as acting overseer.
In such a chaotic battlefield, it's perfectly normal to overhear or miss a single word.
[ Ginseng Rooster ] just wants to say to the other players--
If you heard the word "substitute," then you're not one of our brothers; you're just a passerby.
In summary, the current situation of the Skeleton Alliance army is as follows:
After the great battle, all of their High Tier combat power was lost.
The various Middle Tier factions are eager to make their move, but external pressures ( the Blood Corpse and the Soul Returner Legion ) prevent them from centralizing power.
The power vacuum is there; if he doesn't seize it, it will fall into someone else's hands.
So if you can make some adjustments and gain a moment to catch your breath.
Is there a way to complete the power struggle?
Furthermore, is there any way...?
To seize greater profits?
Amidst the chaos of the battlefield, [ Ginseng Rooster ] felt he had grasped some kind of logic about how the world works.
[ Ginseng Rooster ], his face covered in blood, looked at Colin, whose face was also covered in blood, and asked a question that seemed to come out of nowhere amidst the chaos of the battlefield:
"Sir, would you like to become a member of parliament?"
Colin, who had just returned from the battle, sheathed his sword. Perhaps due to exhaustion, although he was clearly surprised for a moment, he seemed to have come to terms with it and waved his hand dismissively.
"Won't the congressman die?"
"I was already exhausted, both physically and mentally, after only half a day in this position as warlord."
"It seems this is my limit. As for the congressman?"
"Heh, forget it."
"Grown ups."
[ Ginseng Rooster ] revealed a fanatical smile:
"Do you still remember our title, the title of these Soul Returner mercenaries?"
What title?
Colin was puzzled.
"We are ' Fang Soldiers,' your henchmen."
Having said that, the cunning strategist drew his sword and committed suicide right in front of Colin.
"Sir, watch me do it."
[Current body has been detected as dead; consciousness has been ejected. Please select your resurrection location.]
[Should we automatically select the respawn location closest to the death point?]
"No."
The [ Ginseng Rooster ]'s consciousness, or rather, soul, said faintly:
"Choose your respawn point: Valhalla City Center Great Teleportation Tree."
[Respawn point already selected]
Light Blue.
[ Ginseng Rooster ] spoke again, and as soon as he finished speaking, a Pixel Blue Dragon appeared at the edge of his field of vision.
Call me a Dragon Force vehicle; the destination is the Shattered Castle.
Okay~
