Chapter 217 Joint Crusade
The conference room, which was renovated from the villa area, is very luxuriously decorated.
Before the end of the world, the occupancy rate of this area of villas was not high. Most people bought them and left them empty, and would only stay there occasionally to hold a party when they came to visit.
This also directly led to the fact that the villa area did not suffer too much damage in the apocalypse. Of course, some villas were smashed to pieces by the powerful zombies, but at least some parts that were completely undamaged could still be found.
Palm-thick carpets, soft and comfortable sofas, magnificent decorations, and modern electrical appliances everywhere. Although there is no electricity, it sometimes gives people the illusion of escaping from the apocalypse and returning to normal life.
Until the man stepped in.
He has a kind temperament and a handsome face. His hair is too long and difficult to manage, so he ties it up casually behind his head. However, this hairstyle does not make him look feminine, but matches his temperament perfectly. When he sees guests, he draws a perfect smile at the corners of his mouth and greets them in a gentle voice.
It's hard to believe that the real pillar of the alliance, the strong man who once hunted Frost Ghost for a whole month, would actually have the image of a neighbor's brother. Although the leather armor somewhat ruins the gentle feeling, if he changes into a white shirt or something, it would probably be more in line with the image.
This was the first impression Chiyou gave to the two people.
However, the two did not behave unruly because of Chiyou's approachable image. Even Chang Jiaying, who usually likes handsome guys and has a slightly eccentric personality, sat on the sofa very obediently at this moment. If someone familiar with her saw this, they would definitely say that she had changed her personality.
But once you are there, you can tell where the two men's reserve and respect come from.
They could clearly feel the suffocating pressure emanating from Chiyou's body from time to time.
There is no doubt that this seemingly non-threatening and gentle neighbor boy is a top-notch fighter who can easily kill an organization according to the information.
Based on this point alone, the two of them did not dare to act presumptuously.
"So the two of you came here this time because of the hidden dangers of the ancient tree, and you want to cooperate with us?" Chi You put down the documents the two brought over and pretended to be considering it.
“Yes, the ancient trees are spreading outward every day, and there is no known limit. With Ancha City as the center, the surrounding cities are all severely affected. Instead of letting the ancient trees grow wildly, it is better to destroy them in advance.” Chai Junmin's tone rarely had some ups and downs, on the one hand because of the ancient trees, and on the other hand out of respect for Chi You.
"The ancient tree is still in its growth stage, so there should still be a chance to knock it down. Of course, relocating all the forces around us is also an option, but you have just experienced what happened in Ancha City, so you should know how big an impact relocation will have on us." Chang Jiaying also said immediately afterwards.
After saying that, the two of them stared at Chiyou nervously. Chiyou pretended to be thinking, but in fact, he had already made a decision in his heart.
Apparently, this is the plot of Ancient Tree.
Very reasonable.
The strength of the ancient tree is beyond the ability of the current alliance to deal with, but if all the organizations in the nearby cities unite, it is possible to defeat the ancient tree.
Li Shouyun can then use this to get to know the leaders of various organizations and develop more plots at the same time.
What he needs to do is to promote this matter and get the reward of the ancient tree.
"This matter is indeed within our consideration. Although we are some distance away from the ancient tree, there are also great hidden dangers. I can agree to it temporarily, but when the time comes, we still need to discuss internally how many people we can send. It is very likely that we will not send too many people. I hope you can understand." Chi You said after hesitating.
The two nodded. They also knew the situation of the alliance. It seemed huge, but its average strength was worse than that of normal organizations. It relied entirely on Chi You, Li Shouyun and some lone wolves to keep up appearances. As for those lone wolves, it was highly likely that they would not participate in the crusade against the ancient tree. After all, the information about the ancient tree was unclear. In the eyes of many people, crusading against the ancient tree was tantamount to suicide.
"I wonder if you will participate in the crusade?" The two men stared at Chiyou nervously.
The reason they came to the alliance was actually to hope that Chiyou could participate in this crusade. If Chiyou did not participate, their purpose of coming here would be a failure.
They don't need ordinary people to join them, they have no shortage of cannon fodder.
"Of course, if the alliance decides to join the expedition, at least my leader and I will definitely take part." Chi You said with a smile.
The two men visibly breathed a sigh of relief. The two greatest fighting forces of the alliance were Chi You and Li Shouyun. As long as these two confirmed their participation, their goal here would be 100% accomplished.
"Thank you for your understanding and support. We will leave first. After I gather everyone together, we will come here again to inform you." Chai Junmin stood up and said.
"The ancient trees are not just your problem, they are an enemy that we all need to face. If you need any additional support, we are willing to lend a hand if we can."
Chi You also stood up and invited the two of them to have a meal, but Chai Junmin declined on the grounds that he needed to go to other nearby cities. Chi You did not force it and found two people to send Chai Junmin and Chang Jiaying away.
Chiyou returned to the base and told everyone the purpose of the two people's visit.
No one objected to Chiyou's decision to join the crusade.
Just as Chang Jiaying said, the end of Ancha City sounded a wake-up call for everyone.
Even if everyone moves away and chooses to integrate in a gentler way instead of being as tough as in Ancha City, perhaps they will be able to land smoothly in the end.
However, those who had just enjoyed the benefits of a unified city could no longer accept sharing city resources with others.
What is currently controversial is the list of personnel who will participate in the crusade.
The first two people who can be confirmed are Chi You and Li Shouyun.
This is absolutely impossible to remove.
Even though the two of them have very important responsibilities in the alliance, if one of them dies in the crusade, the cost to the alliance will be devastating. But even so, if the two of them do not participate, what basis do others have to participate?
"I suggest that all ordinary members do not participate. Shouyun and I will lead the team. If there are lone wolves with stronger strength who want to participate, they can go to the warehouse to collect two sub-legendary items. But they must explain the risks. If they participate in the crusade, neither Shouyun nor I can protect their safety 100% when danger comes." Chiyou said.
A very reasonable suggestion.
Everyone nodded.
In the following time, Jiang Yin tried to simplify the matter as much as possible, and then sent a notice to every lone wolf above level 45.
On the protagonist side, Jiang Chifeng and others also wanted to join, but they were rejected in the end.
The stability of the alliance requires someone to suppress it.
Since Chi You and Li Shouyun are not here, Jiang Chifeng and others need to take on this responsibility. Their strength is still comparable to that of ordinary lone wolves, and staying in the alliance can reduce a lot of trouble.
The Alliance's power is still unstable, and no one can predict whether organizations from other cities will take advantage of the fact that Chiyou and others are in the forest to attack and attack the Alliance.
Being on guard against others is not something to worry about excessively, but something you must have.
Chiyou arranged all the affairs of the alliance. Time passed day by day. Just when Chiyou felt that the joint team should have been formed and they were ready to leave, a prompt suddenly popped up in front of them.
Chiyou narrowed his eyes slightly.
interesting.
One of the crystals he gave to the merchant was broken, but it was not the two in Sun Lu's hand.
trap?
Someone really discovered something?
