“I know you're all probably wondering why Tidal Town!”
Hearing Sun Mingde's words, Ma Lingzhi and the other members all looked over. This was indeed everyone's question.
Why Tidal Town?
It was also because they had been tormented enough by Tidal Town and Battle Royale during this period.
Now, just seeing the name Tidal Town made them a bit agitated.
Noticing the confusion in everyone's eyes,
Sun Mingde sneered, raised his voice, and said with a heavy tone:
“On one hand, during this period, only Tidal Town did not actively participate in ‘Dungeon Duel’; on the other hand, it is…”
Sun Mingde stood up and looked at everyone, his gaze solemn, “As the leading force in this area, how can we just let such humiliation slide? We must get up from where we fell. Isn't Tidal Town just relying on Battle Royale to attract our Adventurers? Then we will use our Dungeon to attract those Adventurers back!”
“If Tidal Town can do it, can't we, Baiye City?”
“During this time, our Battle Royale Dungeon in Baiye City has almost reached completion. Now it’s time to act… to reclaim everything we’ve lost.”
While saying these words, Sun Mingde spoke with great passion.
It was as if his blood was boiling.
But the problem was...
The council members below remained silent.
Ma Lingzhi said with a headache, “Old Sun, you also know… our Dungeons are all modeled after Battle Royale. Leaving aside other things, just talking about this Duel… is it really possible for us to surpass Battle Royale in the hearts of Adventurers?”
To this day, a large number of Adventurers in Baiye City still miss Battle Royale.
Ma Lingzhi dared to say that once this Duel started, if the other party continued to bring out Battle Royale, they would surely get an extremely high score.
It could be said that they were at a disadvantage from the start. As the pirated version challenging the original, there was no benefit in this kind of thing from any angle.
How could they win?
“Don't worry!”
Sun Mingde confidently raised his head and said, “You might not know, but a genius Dungeon Lord has appeared in our territory. After watching the Battle Royale competition videos, he independently researched and integrated his insights from traveling through various regions over the years. He has already created a brand-new Battle Royale type Dungeon. With his work… we are bound to win!”
“Genius Dungeon Lord…”
Ma Lingzhi looked up in surprise, seemingly a little confused.
Where did this genius Dungeon Lord come from?
Why haven't we heard anything at all?
Sun Mingde did not explain, only saying, “As for the Dungeon Lord, you don’t need to inquire for now. In short, from now on… you only need to do one thing, which is to create some public opinion before the ‘Dungeon Duel’ begins.”
“Public, public opinion…” Ma Lingzhi felt it was getting more and more outrageous.
By now, he was completely tingling, and he was truly afraid of these so-called ‘tactics’.
Especially recently, the Adventurer's Guild forum had been overwhelmed by Adventurer public opinion, which made Ma Lingzhi even more fearful of the word ‘public opinion’.
However, Sun Mingde did not notice the change in his expression and continued on his own, “That’s right, public opinion. As long as the other party accepts this ‘Dungeon Duel’, then you will release public opinion, saying that Tidal Town only uses crooked methods.
Our truly orthodox Dungeons are about sword and magic, the orthodoxy of blades, pure might makes right, and not so-called firearms and grenades. Tidal Town is merely taking advantage of a crooked trend. If it's a true competition of blade orthodoxy, they are no match for us at all.
If the Dungeon Lord of Tidal Town has any backbone, he shouldn't use such crooked methods during the Duel. Let him come out and compete fairly, using sword and magic, using blade orthodoxy, to contend with us in a Duel of orthodoxy.”
Sun Mingde said so.
“This, can this work…?” Ma Lingzhi hesitated and said, “The core of Battle Royale is, firstly, the creativity of the Battle Royale type, and secondly, the impact of things like firearms and grenades. If we release this public opinion, the other party might not necessarily take the bait!”
In his opinion,
Who would abandon their most advantageous weapon to compete with others in a weak area?
The impact brought by the innovative firearm weapons in Battle Royale is huge; this is one of its major advantages.
It's simply impossible for them to agree because of a few words of public opinion!
“It’s even better if he doesn’t agree! What I want is for him not to agree!”
Sun Mingde sneered and said, “If he doesn’t agree, doesn’t that just prove what we said earlier, that without so-called firearms, Tidal Town is useless? Then the Adventurers over there will naturally see the fact that he is a paper tiger. By then, it will be a matter of minutes for them to migrate back. In short…
I have already arranged everything for you. You just need to follow through. A mere Tidal Town, and it can make you all like this. Baiye City is truly getting worse with each generation!”
Sun Mingde kept talking.
He shook his head.
And returned to the Dark World.
Only the people in the conference room were left looking at each other, then at Ma Lingzhi, unsure of what to do.
“President, should we do this…?” Xu Gaoyuan asked tentatively.
“……”
Ma Lingzhi was silent for a moment, then sighed helplessly.
“Do it. What else can we do if we don't…?”
“Fortunately, Tidal Town’s population is full right now, so people can’t even move in. Anyway, no matter what happens, things won’t get any worse.”
Yes.
Ma Lingzhi could only comfort himself this way now.
No matter how bad, it couldn't get much worse…
Maybe that genius Dungeon Lord really does have some tricks up his sleeve and will win?
......
Dark World.
In a castle's teleportation array, light flashed.
Sun Mingde appeared here.
“Uncle Sun, you’re back!” On the castle, a young man saw Sun Mingde and immediately ran down to him, “How was it, Uncle Sun? Is everything arranged?”
The young man asked impatiently.
It turned out that he was the genius Dungeon Lord Sun Mingde spoke of, Hua Zixuan.
Calling him a genius was not an exaggeration.
Hua Zixuan was a standard ‘second-generation Dungeon Lord’, having just reached adulthood not long ago.
But despite his young age, he had always followed his father since childhood, being influenced for a long time, and had already gained some insights into Dungeon construction.
When he was young, he had already shown very good creativity.
Now, several popular Dungeons in his father's territory were actually built based on his creative ideas.
It was also because of this that Hua Zixuan had always been highly valued by his father.
