Nobody's stupid. This person is currently the highest-ranking person in Peach Blossom Village. Even the powerful village chief can't beat him, so who could possibly defeat him?
Seeing that no one came to challenge him, Xia Tianqiong suddenly took two steps forward and called out to everyone.
"Although you can fight monsters and level up here, and obtain strange artifacts, this is still a strange realm. There are bandits and villagers from other villages outside, so killing each other is inevitable. Do you want to stay here forever?"
This question left everyone stunned.
Many people have thought about this problem and are trying to find a solution, but no one has a clue.
Do you have any ideas?
Someone in the crowd shouted something.
Xia Tianqiong replied, "Of course I have a way, but we need everyone to fight alongside me. Only when we are united can we achieve this."
"What exactly is the method? Tell me!"
"Tomorrow morning at seven o'clock, all villagers will gather here. I will then inform everyone and also release high-reward tasks."
After saying this, Xia Tianqiong hurriedly left the square, leaving behind a group of bewildered villagers.
Some people were intrigued and wanted to know what tasks he would issue and how he would break through the mysterious realm.
However, many people dismissed this, feeling that he was being deliberately mysterious, or that he might be trying to use everyone to help him level up.
As the crowd gradually dispersed, Zhang Luyang and the others, along with Xia Tianqiong, returned to the open space outside the village.
"Captain Zhang, the rest is up to you."
Xia Tianqiong's initial plan has been completed. The next step is to incorporate the people of Taoyuan Village, which will take place tomorrow morning.
The reason for starting tomorrow is to allow enough time for Zhang Luyang and others to go to other villages today to make some preparations.
Zhang Luyang sighed, "We may not be able to convince many people, so you still need to be prepared for a strong attack."
Xia Tianqiong nodded, "I know. Even without you, we can still annex other villages, but many people will die."
Zhang Luyang then left with his men, but left Liu Shan and two other soldiers in Taoyuan Village.
Next, Xia Tianqiong continued to do quests and hunt monsters.
He spent the day searching for the materials needed for the next set of magical artifacts, and that evening he delivered them to the pharmacy for forging.
As for his own level, it did not increase.
Each subsequent level is difficult, requiring several times the amount of Netherworld power compared to the previous level.
The next day, Xia Tianqiong went to the pharmacy early to retrieve the strange artifact she had ordered the night before.
[Snake gall bladder beads: Wear them on your person; they can neutralize all poisons.]
This is a bead made from the bile of a giant python. It is dark green all over and about the size of a thumbnail.
In summer, Qiong strung beads on a thread and wore them on her wrist.
The set of artifacts consists of five pieces, and we are currently missing two more pieces to activate the set bonus.
However, there is no time to find materials right now; the most important thing is to annex other villages.
Two to three thousand people gathered in the central square of Taoyuan Village early in the morning, significantly fewer than yesterday.
Some people just wanted to level up quietly and didn't want to participate in Xia Tianqiong's so-called missions, so they didn't come.
"Everyone, please be quiet."
Xia Tianqiong stood in the center of the square once again, with Liu Shan in a purple uniform and two young men in military uniforms beside him.
As the crowd watched their group, they gradually quieted down.
"To break free from the Ghost Realm, it's actually quite simple: just annex all the other villages and leave only our Peach Blossom Village. This Ghost Realm, which is like a game, will then end."
Therefore, we need everyone to unite and attack other villages. This is the task I, as the village chief, am issuing to you.”
Xia Tianqiong stopped holding back and went straight to the point.
As soon as he finished speaking, the scene erupted in an uproar.
"Are you kidding me? Attacking other villages will result in deaths!"
"Isn't it better for us to level up by fighting monsters ourselves? Why should we go with you to kill people? What if we get killed?"
"Are you sending us to our deaths?!"
The crowd reacted strongly, everyone knowing that this was extremely dangerous.
For most people, this eerie realm isn't too dangerous. The key is that you can fight monsters, level up, improve your physical fitness, and even obtain various eerie artifacts. It's a rare opportunity.
They were naturally unwilling to risk attacking other villages.
Many people voiced their opposition, with some even saying that Xia Tianqiong had ulterior motives and wanted to harm everyone.
