Chapter 21: The Plane Exploded
Chapter 21: The Plane Exploded
After persuading them for a long time, the two elders of the Mo Family still did not make up their minds to give up their own Territory. Mo Xiaobai knew his parents’ thoughts very well; the two elders did not want their son to have to take care of them while building the Territory, and they did not want to cause trouble for their son.
In the end, the persuasion was fruitless and had to be dropped. Mo Xiaobai decided to wait until the Territory was truly on the right track before persuading the two elders again; by then, his parents should agree.
Early the next morning, as soon as Mo Xiaobai went online, he saw the Territory Citizens who had finished breakfast starting their work for the new day. The number of people was a bit larger than the previous day; without thinking, he knew that Refugees had started refreshing again this morning.
“Hey, Great Lord, you are too lazy, actually getting up only now.” Second Miss Dong of the Dong Family popped out from somewhere, grabbing a small hamster in her hand and waving it in front of Mo Xiaobai.
“This, it seems it can’t be eaten.” Mo Xiaobai did not understand what she meant. Just as he spoke, he saw the girl roll her eyes at him.
“Who said I want to eat it? Quickly help me find a cage.”
“Where would I get a cage? You want to raise it?”
“Can’t I? I spent a lot of effort to catch it.”
Mourning silently for three seconds in his heart for this unlucky hamster pup, Mo Xiaobai then called a villager to make a small wooden cage for this girl.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Mo Xiaobai thought of something and asked, “I am preparing to return to Eagle Beak Mountain. Aren’t you going together?”
“Not going, anyway I’d have to come back over if I went.” Second Miss Dong was now completely focused on the hamster and refused directly without even lifting her head.
As for the matter of going back to pick up her older sister, she had already selectively forgotten it.
“It’s better if you don’t go; this way your sister won’t be able to escape from my palm.” Mo Xiaobai secretly rejoiced in his heart and smiled, then immediately gathered Ma Laoliu and the others to leave the village and head for Eagle Beak Mountain.
The two-day journey need not be described in detail. However, when Mo Xiaobai returned to Eagle Beak Mountain, he found that the stronghold seemed to have undergone great changes compared to a few days ago.
Most obviously, there were more bandits standing guard at the stronghold entrance.
“Has there been a battle?” Mo Xiaobai scanned the surroundings and discovered some mottled bloodstains. It was also at this moment that Li Ji walked out from the stronghold.
“My Lord.”
“Maogong, have you experienced a battle?”
“Reporting to My Lord, the day before yesterday, bandits from another place attacked, but they have now been repelled by me and the brothers in the camp.”
Sure enough!
He was right to leave Li Ji behind!
“Tell me the details of the battle situation. Also, how is that pale-faced Chief recovering?”
“Chief He Chun’s injuries have been suppressed, and walking is no major issue, but it is not suitable for him to engage in combat. As for the battle the day before yesterday, it was merely a hundred or so bandits; the brothers of Eagle Beak Mountain suffered no casualties.”
“No deaths or injuries is a good thing. I imagine Maogong contributed a lot.”
Mo Xiaobai already regarded all the people of Eagle Beak Mountain as his own Territory Citizens, so naturally he did not want to hear news of losses. Fortunately, Li Ji did not disappoint him; this matter was handled truly beautifully.
The only pity was for himself, missing this battle and failing to get upgrade experience from it.
However, Mo Xiaobai did not care much about that little experience. He walked into the young Chief’s bedroom together with Li Ji and just happened to meet Miss Dong taking his pulse.
“How is Chief He’s injury?” Although he had just asked Li Ji, Mo Xiaobai felt it was safer to ask a professional.
“The poison is deep; he will need at least four or five more days to fully recover.” Miss Dong released her right hand from He Chun’s pulse and shook her head.
Mo Xiaobai was not surprised by this at all. If He Chun’s injury had healed quickly in his previous life, Miss Dong probably would not have had the chance to become the female bandit Chief of the stronghold. He immediately said to He Chun at the side, “Chief He, your brothers have all returned as well. Let’s go out first so you can discuss it.”
“There is no need to discuss further. I am willing to lead the old and young in the stronghold to join under the Lord’s rule.” He Chun smiled bitterly and shook his head. He now had to admit that even if his injuries healed, it would still be very difficult to lead his brothers to survive.
Moreover, some people would not give up until they saw him disappear.
“In that case, on behalf of ‘Daming Village’, I welcome Chief He’s joining.” Mo Xiaobai smiled too, only his smile was very brilliant and very satisfied.
……
“Huaxia Announcement~ Player ‘Daydreaming’ successfully broke through the ‘Eagle Beak Mountain’ bandit camp, becoming the first Lord in the Huaxia Region to conquer a Plane Territory. Special reward: Renown 100, Gold 20, Territory Expansion Map ×1, Random Territory Special Building ×1.”

“Huaxia Announcement……”
Two days later, the aftermath of the previous ‘Daming Village’ Territory upgrade had not yet completely dissipated, and now the entire Huaxia Region was shaken into a mess by a new announcement.
Conquer a Plane Territory?
What was that thing?
However, before the Players could recover their senses, another Plane Announcement like a super bomb appeared:
“Ding~ Plane Announcement~ Sensing that a Plane bandit Territory has been broken by a Player Lord, Plane bandits will actively attack Player Territories after 24 hours. Please, Players, make Defense preparations.”
“Ding~ Plane Announcement~ Sensing that a Plane bandit Territory has been broken by a Player Lord, Plane bandits will actively attack Player Territories after 24 hours. Please, Players, make Defense preparations.”
“Ding~ Plane Announcement~ Sensing that a Plane bandit Territory has been broken by a Player Lord, Plane bandits will actively attack Player Territories after 24 hours. Please, Players, make Defense preparations.”
……
It exploded!
This time it was no longer just the Great Han Dynasty, and not just the Huaxia Region, but the entire Plane had completely exploded.
Sun Never Sets Empire Region, Britain Village.
“WTF?”
As the first Player in the Empire to log into the Plane, Two Smoking Guns had always felt he was developing quite well. If he continued at this pace, he would undoubtedly become the leader of all the Lords in the Empire.
But the Plane Announcement suddenly coming from the sky directly made him curse aloud.
“Who can tell me? What exactly is going on?”
Two Smoking Guns was a bit dazed and desperate, because just a day ago, he had tentatively tested the pirates appearing around him, but the result was not ideal. Half of his ten reserve soldiers had died in battle, yet they failed to kill a mere five pirates.
Whenever he thought of the pirates’ terrifying combat power, he felt he had been abandoned by Queen Elizabeth.
……
“Baga!”
“Who exactly provoked those bastard bandits? We will all be implicated and killed.”
“It’s over, it’s over, my Territory has no soldiers; who will help me?”
“Go die yourself, Baga! Baga!”
The Wa Country Region had already fallen into chaos, and the Player channel was full of exasperated Lords cursing loudly.
……
Foreign Lords all changed color and exploded; the many Players in the Huaxia Region also felt their lives had turned gray.
“Great God, what are you trying to do?”
“Great God, please put away your divine powers. If you keep tossing about, our Territories will all be finished.”
“We agreed you’d take me to show off and fly; is this flying into a garbage dump?”
“Weakly asking a question, do savages count as bandits? A nest of savages lives opposite my Territory; the highest is level 60, and the lowest is also level 20.”
“Buddy, I’ll teach you a method. When the savages come, you can lie on the ground, open your mouth wide, and roar at them with wide eyes.”
“Like that, is it really useful?”
“Um, at least you will die with a bit more dignity. Remember not to stick your butt up, otherwise your chrysanthemum won’t be safe.”
