Chapter 150: A Favor of the Current

Accumulate heavily and release thinly?

Shouldn’t Gold Territory be about speed of leveling up? Is this how it’s done?

After listening to her sister’s explanation, Shangshan Ruoshui nodded with a mix of understanding and confusion. “Even if you’re right, the problem isn’t just our Gold Territory. When we level up next, our territory will cover over ten thousand mu. Plus, a Great God’s territory is unlikely to be less than ten thousand mu. He must have completed the ‘Chaos of the Hundred Beasts’ quest, right?”

“You should ask him. How would I know the answer?” The woman waved her hand to close the Forum, stood up, and said, “You can go ask him and learn what preparations are needed.”

“Isn’t that supposed to be a secret? How do I ask?”

“If you want to ask, just ask directly. If they ’re willing to tell you, they will. I’ll go help Mom in the kitchen to serve the dishes. Come eat once you’re done.” The woman brushed her hair behind her ear, finished speaking, and walked into the mansion.

Ask directly?

Shangshan Ruoshui scratched his head. He had no other choice, so he decided to give it a try.

…

When Shangshan Ruoshui sent the communication request, Mo Xiaobai, who had just sat down to eat, raised an eyebrow.

He put down his chopsticks to answer, and the boy’s voice came through immediately:

“Leader, did I bother you at this time?”

“No, what do you need?”

“Hehe~ I just wanted to ask. Is the ‘Chaos of the Hundred Beasts’ quest really that hard?”

Hearing Shangshan Ruoshui’s question, Mo Xiaobai was momentarily stunned.

The ‘Chaos of the Hundred Beasts’?

It was already exposed so soon?

Thinking about the progression of the Plane in his past life, Mo Xiaobai asked, “How did you find out? Is your territory leveling up?”

“No, it was exposed on the Forum. A player from the Indian Peacock Dynasty leveled up his territory. He couldn’t withstand the ‘Chaos of the Hundred Beasts’ and finally lost his territory to the Intellect Brain.”

Exposed on the Forum? Peacock Dynasty?

Mo Xiaobai’s eyes narrowed, and an ID quickly popped into his mind.

However, to confirm if it was indeed him, Mo Xiaobai didn’t speak directly and asked again, “Is this an Indian Lord? Is it a Silver Grade or a Gold Grade?”

“It’s a Gold Grade Village Lord. Their Gold Territory is huge. A level two village already has ten thousand mu.” Shangshan Ruoshui didn’t think too much and answered directly. After all, this wasn’t exactly a secret anymore; anyone could check the Forum.

A Gold Grade Village?

It must be him, the one called Suoluomingwang.

Mo Xiaobai calculated the information about Suoluomingwang from his past life in his mind and smiled. “A Gold Territory does have good qualifications, but it’s not absolute. After all, developing in a Plane requires more than just having a patch of land.”

“Leader, you sound just like my sister. She said the exact same thing just now.”

“Heh, never mind others. You want to know how to survive the ‘Chaos of the Hundred Beasts’, right?” Mo Xiaobai found it easy to guess why Shangshan Ruoshui had contacted him and replied frankly, “This problem is actually quite simple. I won’t explain it now because you will figure it out later. If there are Beast Territories around you and you don’t feel confident fighting alone, you can completely cooperate with other Lords.”

“Cooperate? Won’t others kindly send troops to help me with the quest?”

“Obviously, you can’t expect others to send troops on their own. But you can organize nearby Lords to level up together. This way, the Beast Territories must split their forces. With good luck, some territories might not even have to face the Beast King.”

Telling Shangshan Ruoshui this trick was, for Mo Xiaobai, merely a small favor of the current.

In his past life, Shangshan Ruoshui’s territory leveled up this way. Obviously, they would have figured it out sooner or later. But if Mo Xiaobai’s rebirth caused some negative butterfly effect and led to Huaxia losing a vanguard against Japanese pirates, it would be a huge loss for Huaxia players.

Shangshan Ruoshui was a boy worth helping.

In future National Wars, there might be a chance to fight side by side.

Mo Xiaobai didn’t care at all about revealing his secret. However, Shangshan Ruoshui on the other end didn’t see it that way. Just by thinking about it for a moment in his mind, Shangshan Ruoshui could confirm it.

The method was viable!

He had approached Mo Xiaobai with just a trial idea to seek a guide, not expecting Mo Xiaobai to speak out before he even asked.

“Leader, you are really my Big Brother. Hehe, when I first saw the Forum, I was worried to death. Now I can finally relax. Thank you, Leader, for telling me such an important thing.”

“You’ve called me ‘Leader’ so many times. I can’t let you lose out, can I?” Teasing him a bit, Mo Xiaobai could guess Shangshan Ruoshui’s mood right now.

If one intends to do someone a favor, giving it proactively works best, so the other person will feel surprised.

“Leader is amazing. This method must be trustworthy. Now I even feel confident about leveling up my village to Level 3.” Shangshan Ruoshui couldn’t help but praise again. Then he remembered something else and asked, “Leader, when your territory leveled up, wasn’t it just you? You probably didn’t use this method, right?”

“Me? I endured it hard. When I was leveling up, almost everything around me was Level 1. If I tried to find others to cooperate, no one could have helped.”

Endured it hard!

No one could help!

Hearing Mo Xiaobai’s words, Shangshan Ruoshui could only sigh.

No matter when, Great Gods are always Great Gods.

Those trolls on the Forum said Leader’s territory might not have even reached ten thousand mu yet. That was simply contempt for the Plane’s greatest Great God.

Leader was far ahead. He and Wuyou Village also had to catch up.

With such thoughts flashing through his mind, Shangshan Ruoshui immediately said, “Leader, thank you for telling me this important secret. If you ever need me, Shangshan Ruoshui will never hesitate to help.”

“Okay, I understand. Is there anything else? If not, I’ll hang up first. I’m eating.”

“Okay, goodbye, Leader.”

“Mm, talk next time.”

After Mo Xiaobai finished speaking and hung up, he heard his mother say, “You were talking about your territory leveling up, weren’t you? I saw it in the Projection Hall this morning. I was thinking of telling you while we eat.”

“Did this get spread on the Forum after I left the Projection Hall this morning?”

“Roughly around 10:30.”

Ever since the Projection Hall opened, Mother Mo often went to help. Calculating the time in her mind, she continued, “Those Indian players were so arrogant. They lost their own Lord and territory, yet they kept insisting that Daming Village definitely didn’t reach ten thousand mu. They made me laugh out loud.”

“They are just like that. We don’t need to pay them attention. Let’s eat first.”

Mo Xiaobai knew what that group would do on the Forum without thinking. Compared to Forum matters, the lunch with a mix of meat and vegetables before him was more appealing.

“By the way, Mom, why haven’t I seen Little Dot today? Does she not eat?”

“She? She’s being punished at the Academy.”

Hearing her son mention Xiaoyou, Mother Mo immediately became cross. “This girl reads just like you did when you were young. Without a teacher watching, she wanted to slip through. I went to the Academy, and she’s there writing lines as punishment.”

“Writing lines? Cough, cough. Even with punishment, she has to eat, right?”

“I think Kongming taught her well, so just let her keep writing. Don’t interfere with this matter.”

“Alright. If you don’t feel sorry for her, why should I worry so much.”
