Chapter 219 Gathering in Huangguo City
The people from the alliance gathered at the gate. Looking at these people, Li Shouyun felt quite emotional.
Once upon a time, he was just a group of people, being forced to run around by frost ghosts and zombies, but in the blink of an eye, he had become the leader of an alliance with more than a thousand people.
Thinking of this, Li Shouyun couldn't help but look at Chiyou who was standing next to him.
He always felt that he was lucky enough.
Along the way, Chiyou gave him considerable help. Without Chiyou, he would never have achieved what he has today.
Therefore, although he was very unsure about going to Ancha City to defeat the ancient tree this time, he felt more confident because Chiyou was in the team.
He wasn't the only one who had this thought. The lone wolves behind him probably all had the same thought.
If Chiyou did not participate in this crusade, the number of people in the alliance who would actually respond would definitely not reach the current fifteen. It would definitely be even fewer, or even no one would respond.
These lone wolves were all alone not long ago. Even if they got along well with the members of the alliance, in the final analysis, they had only been together for more than a month or two, which was far from the point of risking their lives for them.
Even though those who go out on this expedition can get very generous rewards, no matter how good the reward is, one still needs to be alive to get it.
And Chiyou is the person who can ensure that they survive and get the reward.
"This time is different from the past, Shouyun, Brother Chi, you must be careful." Jiang Yin said worriedly.
"Okay, okay, you've been talking about this for more than a week, don't worry." Li Shouyun said helplessly.
He knew that this trip was full of dangers, so it was normal for Jiang Yin to be a little worried, but she didn't have to say it forty or fifty times in more than a week.
"I'm worried about you, and I'm worried that something might go wrong?" Jiang Yin raised her voice and pinched the exposed part of Li Shouyun's arm and twisted it.
Li Shouyun immediately cried out in pain and begged for mercy, but looking at the place where Jiang Yin pinched him, it didn't even turn red. The difference in their attributes was too great, and Jiang Yin couldn't break Li Shouyun's defense.
Everyone watched the two fighting with a smile. After a moment, Li Shouyun put away his smile and turned serious. He said to everyone word by word: "I will definitely come back alive, and I will bring everyone back with me!"
After saying this, Li Shouyun turned around and no longer looked at Jiang Yin. He had already explained everything that needed to be explained. He was afraid that if he talked for a while longer, his determination to take the risk of conquering the ancient tree would waver.
The expedition team organized by the Alliance this time did not include any auxiliary professions, and everyone had excellent attributes. Even though the distance was hundreds of kilometers, it did not take them too long.
Although they encountered several groups of zombies on the way, it was not dangerous for everyone.
When the tall blood-red ancient trees could be seen in the distance, everyone finally arrived at the agreed gathering place.
This is a town where the zombies have been cleared out, clearing out the residences and meeting rooms.
People from Huangguo City welcomed them outside the town.
Chiyou and others did not arrive too early, and there were already several teams of elites in the town.
These people were divided into teams, with each team separated by a relatively long distance.
Although we are in a cooperative relationship, necessary precautions must still be taken.
When Chiyou and others stepped into the square, everyone's attention was immediately focused on them.
"That's him."
"Well, Chiyou from the Alliance is biased towards archers."
"The strongest person in the alliance, I don't know if it's all real or fake."
People were talking in low voices.
Although this was the first time they met, they had heard of Chiyou's reputation long before that.
The first time was to suppress an entire organization remotely.
The second time was even more terrifying. In close combat, which archers were not good at, they were evenly matched with an elite team of thirteen people.
Because of this, even though the number of people sent by the Alliance was relatively small, no one was blind enough to come and provoke. Instead, representatives of several teams took the initiative to come and show their friendship, wanting to establish a friendly cooperative relationship with the Alliance.
Ancient trees are simply too dangerous.
If we can unite with Chiyou at this time, the possibility of survival will increase.
Even if everyone who comes here is ready to die, if there is really a glimmer of hope, who would be willing to die?
Chiyou handled his interactions with these people in a proper manner. Although he did not really agree to unite with anyone, these people did not feel disappointed. On the contrary, because of Chiyou's kind attitude, they felt that if they encountered danger in the forest, the possibility of them being willing to support them was very high.
"Mr. Chi, I have long heard of your name."
The sound was dull, like thunder.
The person striding towards them was a middle-aged man. He was wearing a full body armor of bright silver and no helmet, revealing a resolute square face with a beard, rough skin, and a long scar on his sharp eyes.
Looking at him, Chiyou’s mind flashed through the information Jiang Yin had collected.
Cui Ye, the leader of Huangguo City.
Warriors above level 50.
His level should be slightly lower than Li Shouyun's. Although their levels are similar, Li Shouyun's equipment is better.
Although Boss Du definitely has some trump cards, Li Shouyun also possesses godhood and god-level skills.
"Mr. Cui."
Chiyou extended his hand, and after the two shook hands, Cui Ye looked at Li Shouyun, still with that enthusiastic smile on his face: "This must be the leader of the alliance, Mr. Li, right? He is indeed a handsome man."
Chiyou watched the scene with a forced smile.
This Cui Ye is not as honest as he looks.
No matter what the real situation of the alliance is, at least Li Shouyun is still the leader.
Get close to him first, then talk to Li Shouyun.
This is clearly an attempt to flatter Li Shouyun.
If Li Shouyun was a petty person, he would have resented Shang Chiyou for overshadowing his brilliance.
However, Li Shouyun is not such a person. He hopes Chi You can help deal with things outside.
As for why Cui Ye did this, Chi You could probably guess the reason.
Although the Alliance is not a huge organization yet, it is not a small organization either.
The various core regulations of the Alliance are very attractive to lone wolves. In fact, not only lone wolves, but also some people who originally belonged to the organization, after leaving the organization, joined the Alliance under the name of lone wolves.
In the long run, the Alliance is likely to become a force that dominates over others.
This will damage the interests of Huangguo City and pose a threat, so it is normal to find a way to weaken it.
After that, Cui Ye did not use these little tricks again. People are not fools. It is okay to use them once or twice, but if they use them too many times, even if a powerful enemy is in front of them, people may not be able to suppress their anger.
People who survived the apocalypse have extremely bad tempers. It is common for them to draw their swords and attack someone if they are not responded to.
Soon, several more teams arrived.
There are a total of 31 teams with nearly 1,000 people.
Average level forty-five.
Most people's equipment is dark gold or sub-legendary, gold is very rare.
Such power is enough to overwhelm any force in the world today, but when facing ancient trees, people still lack confidence.
Half an hour later, after counting all the people and confirming that no new teams would arrive, Cui Ye welcomed everyone into the super-large conference room that had been prepared long ago.
