Chapter 83: The Giant Pit Where the Wolf Eats the Sheep
Chapter 83: The Giant Pit Where the Wolf Eats the Sheep
The Player Forum became lively again because of the disaster in the Wa Country, but Mo Xiaobai had just finished inspecting an important project for his Territory in Juancheng.
Hmm, it was the brothel.
Under the tempting condition of three months of tax exemption offered by Mo Xiaobai, two small brothels that were not doing very well immediately expressed their stance.
They would move; they would move to Daming Village.
“Although brothels can solve the urgent need, they are not a fundamental cure after all. We still have to find a way to increase the female population.” After randomly finding an inn to stay in, Mo Xiaobai was still pondering the trouble of the imbalance between men and women in Daming Village.
After thinking for a long time without coming up with a solution, his friend communication device rang instead. He glanced at the communication prompt and saw it was from Shangshan Ruoshui.
What was that kid looking for him for?
Mo Xiaobai confirmed and connected the call, and Shangshan Ruoshui’s excited voice immediately came to his ears: “Great God, you are too amazing! How did you do it?”
What the heck?
What have I done recently?
Mo Xiaobai was a bit confused by Shangshan Ruoshui’s shouting and asked puzzledly: “I haven’t done anything recently. What are you talking about?”
“What else could it be? Of course, it’s about the Wa Country. Great God, how could you have not done anything? The great disaster in the Wa Country has already descended, and all the coastal Lords have perished.”
“The Wa Country? Oh, you mean the Nine-colored Spirit Clam disaster appeared? Hehe, I almost forgot if you hadn’t mentioned it.” Only after listening to Shangshan Ruoshui did Mo Xiaobai realize that this kid was talking about the previous bet.
After that forum event, Mo Xiaobai had dug a huge pit for the Wa Country Players and then stopped paying attention to the situation in the Wa Country.
There was a pile of things waiting to be dealt with in Daming Village, so how could Mo Xiaobai have time to bother with the Wa Country?
If the Wa Country Players really suffered a disaster, that was their own business. Anyway, Mo Xiaobai hadn’t sent a single soldier to kill people in the Wa Country.
However, while Mo Xiaobai didn’t think this was a big deal, Shangshan Ruoshui on the other end of the communication didn’t see it that way.
The collective death of all the coastal Lord Players in the Wa Country was equivalent to reducing the number of Lord Players in the Wa Country by one quarter in a single day.
Who would put aside such a big event?
How could they not think about it?
But listen to what the Great God said.
If you hadn’t told me, I would have forgotten… forgotten… forgotten…
How confident must the Great God be, or perhaps he simply didn’t take the Wa Country seriously at all.
He truly deserved to be a top Player in the Plane and the number one Great God of Huaxia.
“Great God, you forgot earlier, but you must remember it now, right? The Forum has already exploded. Everyone is saying that the Wa Country did too many things that angered the heavens in the past, otherwise why would they receive heavenly punishment? Great God, what do you think about this?”
Shangshan Ruoshui still had that tone of “begging to be told” and “begging for the secret,” which made Mo Xiaobai chuckle involuntarily: “Just treat it as heavenly punishment. Maybe the heavens really don’t like them.”
“Great God, those words might fool a child, but you definitely know the reason, right? Or was this all manipulated by you, Great God?” In order to know the truth, Shangshan Ruoshui let his imagination run wild. However, he didn’t realize that the answer he blindly guessed was actually only half a meter away from the truth.
“I don’t have that much ability. I’m not a Grand Magician who can remotely kill so many Wa People. Since the disaster in the Wa Country has happened, and it hasn’t been more than a month yet, I should be considered the winner of our last bet, right?”
“You won, Great God. I won’t ask about joining the Forum anymore. From now on, you are my Big Brother. Wherever you say to fight, I will resolutely fight there.”
Shangshan Ruoshui accepted his loss in the bet, but then he changed his tone and said with a playful smile: “But Big Brother, please have mercy and tell me the reason. It’s impossible for a tsunami sweeping the entire Wa Country to happen for no reason, right? The Wa Country Players even said they were attacked by monsters. What exactly was that?”
“When the national borders open up in the future, you will know.”
Shangshan Ruoshui didn’t guess the key point and only relied on intuition and the bet to speculate that this matter had something to do with him, so Mo Xiaobai didn’t plan to tell the truth and kept him in suspense again.
By doing this, Mo Xiaobai really tormented Shangshan Ruoshui quite a bit. Even after using the trick of acting cute, he still didn’t get an answer. In the end, he could only give up the idea of getting the answer directly from Mo Xiaobai and honestly went to browse the Forum, trying to find some clues from inside.
After ending the communication with Shangshan Ruoshui, Mo Xiaobai still couldn’t rest well, because Fatty Luyu also came looking for him.
“Bro, that move of yours was really awesome. Turning your hand makes clouds, covering your hand makes rain. I thought you were just giving the Wa Country Players a lesson, but I didn’t expect you to directly wipe out tens of millions of their Lord Players.”
As Fatty’s voice entered his ears, Mo Xiaobai laughed loudly: “Hold on, I didn’t wipe them out. I’ve been eating, drinking, and having fun in Juancheng. You say that, and I definitely won’t admit it.”
“Come on, I couldn’t guess it before, but now I know. You used a food chain attack, right?”
Fatty Luyu was worthy of being someone determined to become the number one farmer and rancher in the Plane; he saw things much more clearly than Shangshan Ruoshui.
As soon as the disaster in the Wa Country broke out, he went to the Forum and browsed around a couple of times, and he basically knew what was going on.
“I was wondering before why the Nine-colored Spirit Clam you mentioned was so powerful and could reproduce in such large quantities. Now that I think about it, that thing should be food in the mouth of an ocean BOSS? The Wa People used their entire coastline to farm Nine-colored Spirit Clams, which completely provoked all the underwater monsters.”
While analyzing, Fatty boasted: “You just tricked the Wa People into herding sheep under the wolf mountain. With so many sheep, wouldn’t that attract all the wolves? It serves the Wa People right for jumping around for so long, only to end up being played by you in the palm of your hand.”
“Cough, cough, I didn’t trick them. If the Wa People weren’t so greedy, why would they go to their deaths collectively? Any Specialty in the Plane has severe restrictions. They entered the Plane without using their brains and got themselves killed. Is that my fault?”
Mo Xiaobai actually didn’t expect the pit he dug so casually to have such a good effect.
Originally, he thought it would be about right to trap a few million Wa Country coastal Lords, but who knew the Wa People were truly courting death, and over ninety percent of the coastal Lords were farming Nine-colored Spirit Clams.
However, in this way, the effect of the second round of blows the Wa People were about to face would probably double as well.
“Alright, I finally know that you, bro, are the most scheming one. The Wa Country Players really had terrible luck to mess with you. So many Lords died; it will be very difficult for them to recover their Primeval Qi. There will definitely be a battle between the two countries in the future, and all the Huaxia Players will owe you for this favor.”
“Recover their Primeval Qi? Hehe~”
Hearing Fatty say this, Mo Xiaobai smiled somewhat strangely. And his laughter entered Luyu’s ears on the other side, which made Fatty’s heart skip a beat.
This laughter didn’t sound very normal.
Thinking about how Mo Xiaobai could dig a huge pit for the Wa Country so easily, Fatty suspected for a moment and spoke up: “I say, you don’t have another move you haven’t used yet, do you?”
“Fatty, what do you think?”
“Hiss~”
Hearing Mo Xiaobai’s rhetorical question, Fatty gasped again: “The Wa Country is already in this state, what other move can you have? To kill their inland Lords too?”
“The next move isn’t aimed at those inland Lords. And strictly speaking, it can’t be considered my arrangement.” Mo Xiaobai first denied Fatty’s guess, then spoke: “After playing the Lord single-player mode in the Plane for so long, the novice period should be over no matter what. What do you think the Intellect Brain will do next?”
