Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate - Chapter 335 - 333: Lords Gather
Chapter 335: Chapter 333: Lords Gather
The messages in the chat channel suddenly stopped.
Everyone in the discussion suddenly remembered that the representative of the Overlord Camp had not yet appeared, and they immediately became puzzled.
After all, it was obvious to anyone with a discerning eye.
This was the best time to recruit teams.
Even though they came from different realms, they could still temporarily cooperate for the sake of benefits, especially since their opponents were also people from other realms.
Naturally, they didn’t want the good stuff being snatched away by people from other realms.
“Could it be that the last Banner of Command was picked up by some lucky weakling who doesn’t dare to speak up?”
A Lord quickly speculated.
“Very likely, given how chaotic the scene was, it was impossible to see who snagged it once the marker disappeared.”
“Or maybe he was frightened by the four top players up front?”
“Hahaha, who would’ve thought there’d be such an unlucky fellow; some things you shouldn’t take unless you can back it up with power.”
“Who cares, this way we just eliminate one directly.”
The Lords cheerfully sent messages, either joking or making snide comments.
Some were already deliberating on which of the four to join, simultaneously analyzing pros and cons, or just observing for now.
Anyway, it wouldn’t start until tomorrow morning, so there was no rush.
“What’s going on? Why has the top of the Magic Ability Chart changed?”
Suddenly, a message popped up, interrupting everyone’s discussion.
The Lords who were deliberating over which team to join were immediately drawn to this message and instinctively opened the chart.
“Holy crap! It really changed, Michael has been knocked off the top spot!”
“Who’s so fierce, charging to the top on the last day?”
“It’s Lin You from the Primordial Realm! His magic energy surged by over eighty million!”
“Eighty million!? What on earth did he do?”
The Lords exclaimed in astonishment.
Eighty million magic energy is no small number.
Only a little over a hundred on the chart could reach such a number.
Some people barely had enough magic energy for recruiting species, almost exhausting their resources.
Lin You’s rapid rise was simply unimaginable.
This immediately sparked a flurry of discussion among the Lords.
…
At this moment.
Outside Lin You’s territory.
Lin You, accompanied by a large group of plant species, silently watched the two Lord’s corpses lying in the distance, his gaze calm.
Just earlier, when he rushed back with his species, he happened to encounter a Lord attempting to attack his territory.
Trying to seize his resources while he was away.
Needless to say, the outcome was clear.
Under a pincer attack from the stationed plants in the territory and himself, they were taken down on the spot.
The eighty million magic energy came directly from these two Lords, propelling him straight to the top of the Magic Ability Chart with a total of 270 million magic energy.
This was somewhat unexpected for Lin You.
Even the top-ranked Michael only had just over 230 million.
Originally, he didn’t want too many people to know about his Royal Species, trying to minimize contact, but who would have thought that someone would deliver resources to his doorstep?
What a charitable soul.
However, his objective was the final reward on the battlefield, so he paid little attention to the Lords’ discussions.
After dealing with the bodies, he returned to the territory with the Plant Legion.
He glanced at the chat channel, then quickly crafted a message and sent it out.
“Lin You (Primordial Realm): The Banner of Command for the Overlord Camp is with me; you’re welcome to join.”
He didn’t say anything harsh.
Because it wasn’t necessary.
The Lords present were shrewd individuals, with their own criteria for judgment.
Saying too much would make him appear lacking in confidence and presence.
As soon as he sent out the message, the entire chat channel paused for a moment, then exploded with activity.
“The fifth Banner of Command has appeared!”
“Lin You? Isn’t that the person who just topped the Magic Ability Chart?”
“Eh? It really is! Who would have thought it was with him.”
“Holy crap, yet another hidden master, this is going to be interesting.”
“Brother You! Finally, I’ve been waiting for you, I knew you’d be one of the five!”
Among those sending messages, there was even a familiar face.
It was Li Ke, the Son of the Great Emperor, whom he had met on the battlefield yesterday.
Even the other three Lords from the Primordial Realm also sent messages expressing their support for him.
Seeing this, a faint smile finally appeared on Lin You’s face.
He knew that compared to the other four, he was not as well-known and had no strong backing.
Just words alone would find it hard to convince those strong Lords to join.
The first place on the Magic Ability Chart just now added fuel to his fire, overall the effect was pretty good.
Next up.
The issue to consider is how to defeat those four formidable opponents.
He had encountered Cyan Phoenix before during the trial at the Sword Tomb, whose flame manipulation abilities were extremely tricky.
He hadn’t met the others, but he frequently heard people discussing them over the past couple of days, and he had a rough understanding.
But if he wanted to win, defeating just these few people wouldn’t cut it, he also needed to consider the overall strength of the 2,000 people.
After all, the influence of a single person in there is not significant, even very small.
However.
He held an advantage that others did not, which was the Divine Fragment.
Anyway, the Saint Radiance Emperor had already concealed his Divine aura, and when the time came among so many people, as long as he was cautious, nobody would notice.
If push comes to shove, he could simply say it was his territory’s ability.
Now, which Tier Eight Lord doesn’t have one or two extra territory abilities?
For example, the morale boost for Yan Lie’s Beastman Legion is one type of territory ability, and basically, no one suspects it’s because of a Divine Fragment.
“Alright, let’s do it this way.”
Lin You nodded silently; for the final rewards of the battlefield, this risk was worth taking.
Then he observed the chat channel for a while.
It wasn’t until the evening, after a simple meal, that he returned to the treehouse to rest.
…
The night passed without words.
After a night of silence, the final half-day of the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms finally arrived.
Early in the morning.
The central arena was already bustling, crowded with lords from various realms.
There was still more than an hour until the mission began.
Yet the lords were already eagerly awaiting, forming a circle outside the central arena, discussing incessantly.
Some of them had already joined factions.
Others were simply there to watch the excitement.
This grand gathering of top lords from the Ten Thousand Realms was a rare spectacle.
And on the sandy battlefield, The Cyan Phoenix of the Beast God Realm and Tang Wentai of the Eternal Realm were already standing proudly on their respective Commander Platforms.
In front of them, more than half of the 2,000 people had been recruited, gathering in small groups near the platforms, chatting quietly.
In front of Michael and Elans’ Commander Platforms, the numbers were even greater, close to two-thirds.
The reason why it wasn’t full overnight wasn’t due to lack of tempting rewards, but because the lords didn’t know the exact rules and feared hidden dangers.
So, many were still observing.
Soon after, lights flashed one after another on the remaining three Commander Platforms.
“Here they come!”
The lords were invigorated, looking in those three directions.
Michael, Elans, and Lin You appeared successively on their respective Commander Platforms.
Seeing Lin You appear, Li Ke and the others in the Overlord Camp became instantly excited and pushed through the crowd to Lin You.
“Brother You, you finally came!”
Li Ke rushed forward warmly.
His voice also jerked Lin You out of his teleportation-induced weightlessness, his vision gradually clearing.
He first surveyed the surroundings and then secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The number of people who joined the Overlord Camp was more than he expected, around a thousand.
Although less than the other four, it exceeded his expectations.
Besides Li Ke and the others, there were many familiar faces in the team.
One was an Insect Lord he encountered near his territory on the first day.
The others were lords who were overawed when he rescued Li Ke earlier.
After rising to Tier Eight.
His memory had improved greatly, easily remembering these people.
“What a coincidence, I didn’t expect you to join my team.”
Lin You nodded at Li Ke and the others, saying to those lords.
He didn’t know how they realized he was “Lin You.”
But Tier Eight Lords had their own means unknown to others, which didn’t surprise him much.
The Insect Lord and the other lords smiled awkwardly and said, “There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.”
“Aren’t you afraid you’ll lose by following me?”
Lin You smiled oddly.
It was a rare sight for people from different realms to gather and chat.
It was interests that made them temporarily put aside their grudices and stand together.
Those lords didn’t know Lin You’s thoughts, but they were clear in their minds.
Lin You’s strength.
Very strong!
Not just ordinarily strong!
At least from their perspective, no weaker than the likes of Michael and Elans, maybe even stronger.
So after some thought, they confidently said, “You can never predict who will win in the end, so why not place a bet.”
“Indeed, as lords, we strive forward bravely, and if we don’t even have this courage, we’re just like those outside watching, how can we talk about getting stronger?”
“I’ve heard that tasks like this on the first battlefield generally aren’t deadly mandatory.”
As they said this, a gleam appeared in their eyes, showing great confidence in their choice.
Lin You was surprised, realizing he underestimated other Tier Eight Lords.
Seeing their confident looks, he smiled too, boldly proclaiming:
“I have to say, your choice today is correct because we will undoubtedly be the winners!”
As they say, even if you lose, don’t lose your spirit, so just brag first.
Lin You even amplified his voice, spreading his words across the entire grounds.
Suddenly, the lords in his camp all lit up with determination.
Li Ke beside him was blushing, excited beyond words.
Indeed.
He had a good eye for people.
Brother You really was the reincarnation of a powerhouse destined to unify the Ten Thousand Realms again!
Following a powerhouse ensures no wrong!
As if in response to Lin You’s words, a sequence of prompts suddenly echoed in the arena.
[Attention, lords, there is only 1 hour until the start of the final mission of the battlefield, and now the mission rules will be announced.]
[This “Battle of the Five Kings” mission is for lords only, a group melee, no summoning of species, all aura-boost effects invalid.]
[Upon being judged killed, you will be forcibly teleported out of the field, no death involved, and the faction to which the last standing person belongs will be the winning side.]
[Note, if the bearer of the Banner of Command dies, the entire faction will have the task deemed a failure.]
