Undead???
The ones who were even more shocked than Ke Gaojie were Lucas and others.
Who knows, although the Kingdom of the Dead is on the continent of Stan, it is isolated from the territories of other races. According to rumors from their ancestors, they were exiled to another land. The reason for their exile was that the power of the Kingdom of the Dead was too strong. The souls and even bones of the dead could become their tools, forming a huge undead army that was invincible wherever they went.
Since they were exiled, the undead have not appeared on the continent of Stan for a long time.
But there actually is one in Hope Village. Was it summoned like them?
Before they could think too much, the undead attack had already arrived, and Lucas and the other four orcs immediately engaged in a fight with the enemy.
The aftermath of the battle between the two sides also affected the people nearby. Not only were they knocked to the ground, but their health points were also reduced.
Seeing this, Bayer and others directly led the battlefield to another area.
In an instant, all that was left on the scene were the original humans.
Zhou Bai, standing in the crowd, thought about the order Ke Gaojie had just given, raised the iron axe in his hand, and shouted: "Let's charge! Beat this guy to death."
...
...
Disgusting, so disgusting!
Without the orcs' help, she wanted to see what else the Overlord of Overlord Village could do.
Zhou Bai took the lead, instantly stirring the emotions of many people around him, and a group of people followed Zhou Bai forward.
Li Xingteng looked at the furious Zhou Bai and glanced at Zhou Zhengping teasingly, "With a daughter like this, what else could a father ask for!"
Zhou Zhengping listened, smiled helplessly, and then rushed forward with his weapon.
With his daughter already in such a state, how could he, as a father, lose?
They went straight towards the stunned Overlord Village team. No matter whether they would listen to the Overlord Village lord or not, they could not lose in momentum!
Ke Gaojie's expression changed when he saw this scene. Without the orcs, their team was obviously no longer at an advantage.
We don’t have as many people as them, and our equipment isn’t as good as theirs, so why fight?
Ke Gaojie subconsciously looked at his control panel, his eyes fixed on the word "retreat"?
Or just give up?
But before Ke Gaojie could make a choice, Zhou Bai had already arrived in front of him. He looked up and saw an axe falling directly down. He subconsciously used his shield to block it.
But the force still made him take several steps back.
Before he could counterattack, several figures rushed over from the surroundings.
[Health -50]
[Health -70]
[Health -60]
Even with the shield and even though he tried hard to dodge, Ke Gaojie was still injured quite a few times. After all, there were a lot of people surrounding him! At the same time, the pain in his body also made him scream.
Since he became the lord, he has never suffered such hardship!
Without further hesitation, Ke Gaojie directly chose the "retreat" option.
If he doesn't retreat, based on the hatred value he just dropped, these people will definitely not let him go. If he dies here, who knows who will benefit from his territory?
If we retreat early now, we can still preserve our strength.
Isn't it just a few resources? As long as the territory is there, he will be able to make a comeback after a month. He doesn't believe that he will be unlucky enough to encounter such an unreasonable existence as Hope Village next time.
Soon after Ke Gaojie chose to retreat, he received a system notification the next moment.
[Dear host, are you sure you want to retreat? Retreating means admitting defeat! ]
"yes."
The next moment after he finished speaking, Ke Gaojie, as the lord,
Before leaving, he saw that the residents he brought with him did not go back with him, and his pupils shrank. What happened? Didn't he take everyone with him when he retreated?
**
At the same time, at the fighting scene, many residents of Overlord Village were still fighting bravely. Facing the residents of Hope Village who were surrounding them from all directions, the only thing in their minds was the word "confrontation". They did not notice that their lord had left, except for a small number of people who were captured by the residents of Hope Village as soon as the fight started.
They were also frightened when they were caught, but then they felt a little relieved when they saw that the other side had no intention of dealing with them. Then they had the mood to check the situation of the battle in their territory, and then they saw the scene where their lord disappeared.
The moment they saw it, they really felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, and their lord had abandoned them!
Immediately afterwards, they received a system notification.
[Dear host, the Overlord Village Lord has admitted defeat. This territory war has failed. As the loser, you have two choices: return to Overlord Village or join Hope Village? ]
[Note: Captured personnel will be retained in Hope Village by default and will become residents or slaves]
They stared at the words on it.
The battle hasn't even started yet, and their lord has just given up after a slight defeat?
Considering the other party's actions before and after, how could these people not understand?
It can only be said that when it comes to personal interests and life safety, their lords have always only considered themselves.
They were all guessing one thing, that is, given the other party's temper, would the reward the other party promised to them really count after they returned to the territory this time?
There was a vague answer in my mind.
The next moment, they laughed at themselves. As prisoners, they had no chance to choose at all.
I just wonder if they will become residents or slaves?
And the people who were fighting had the same thought after seeing the message notification.
But they had another idea.
That means there will be no reward or very little reward if they return. Will they still go back to Overlord Village?
They really could not forget what Ke Gaojie said: "Don't keep it."
What a vicious heart!
In addition, they also noticed that during the fight, the residents of Hope Village did not kill them, and it seemed that no one died at the scene, only people were captured. Because of this, after seeing the news, many people hesitated to take action, while those on the other side who were preparing to go back saw that no one was taking action and did not make a choice immediately.
At this time, Zhou Bai, who was watching Ke Gaojie suddenly disappear, had already noticed something strange about the residents of Overlord Village at the scene.
Although the system has not sent any notification yet, it is obvious that Ke Gaojie has chosen to give up, but his residents are still here, and some of the residents who are fighting are beginning to hesitate.
A little speculation would reveal that the reason why this territorial war did not send a message to her, the victorious party, was most likely because something had not been dealt with, and this thing should be referring to the residents of Overlord Village who were stranded at the scene.
[If the war fails, the enemy will plunder the buildings, supplies and even the population in the territory. ]
Diana's words came to mind.
Does plundering the population mean now?
They are making a choice! Return to Overlord Village or stay in Hope Village. After making the choice, it is time to settle the result!
After confirming this in his heart, Zhou Bai announced loudly: "The Overlord of Overlord Village may have surrendered. Let's stop fighting first!"
**
Zhou Bai was a recognized leader in the territory, so his words carried weight. After hearing her words and looking at the dazed looks on the faces of the residents of Overlord Village, they immediately stopped their actions and quickly moved away from the battle circle, forming an encirclement posture.
As soon as they stopped, the residents of Overlord Village also stopped.
Seeing this, Zhou Bai hurriedly continued, "Your lord has left. I guess you didn't leave because you now have a choice, whether to stay in Hope Village or return to Overlord Village. I hope you can stay in Hope Village. Hope Village is very strong and is directly managed by the Doomsday Game System. It is fair and just."
Zhou Bai said this because he had a basis for his judgment. If Overlord Village was really good, then when these people received the news of the selection,
What she wanted to say was that while the other party was hesitating, she should try to keep them in Hope Village.
"You don't have a lord? How is life in the territory?" Ling Mingzhi had long wanted to leave Overlord Village. When he heard Zhou Bai's words, he hurriedly asked.
"At least so far, no one has come forward to claim the title of lord. Our daily tasks are issued by the system. As for life, the harder you work, the more you get, and the better your life will be in Hope Village." Zhou Bai said.
At this time, the residents of Hope Village also understood what Zhou Bai meant by these words.
One by one, they all stood up.
Zhou Zhengping: "In Hope Village, there is a high degree of freedom. As long as you don't commit robbery or other crimes, no one will bother you."
Li Xingteng: "The prices in the territory are very low. To become a resident of Hope Village, you only need to pay 10 silver coins, a wooden house only needs 6 gold coins, and renting for a day only needs 100 copper coins. There are many types of buildings. There is a blacksmith shop for weapons, a tailor shop for daily equipment, a canteen for meals, a grocery store for materials, and the lord's mansion for selling materials."
Zhong Yongnian: "All the gains of the team belong to themselves, and the team leader distributes the gains according to their work."
As for the others.
"Yes, yes, that's it."
"We can guarantee that."
"Stay in Hope Village, you won't be disappointed."
"The lord of your Overlord Village is such a despicable person! Following a man like that will definitely lead to bad consequences."
"Look, after we've fought till now, have any of you died? No! That's because we know that we are all from the Blue Planet, we are all compatriots, and in this doomsday game we should help each other to survive instead of killing each other."
"People from country C don't cheat people from country C."
“…”
As Ling Mingzhi listened to the words of the residents of Hope Village around him, the balance in his heart once again tilted towards Hope Village.
"Okay, I'll trust you this time." After saying that, Ling Mingzhi chose to "join Hope Village" without hesitation.
As soon as he made the selection, a notification came from Ling Mingzhi's panel.
[Dear host, you have become a resident of Hope Village. ]
Seeing Ling Mingzhi's choice, his teammates took the lead in making their choices, and the other Overlord Village residents at the scene followed suit one by one.
The originally hostile forces directly became the same camp.
Zhou Bai kept receiving notifications of [You gained a new resident].
At the scene, many people showed some struggle on their faces as they watched Ling Mingzhi lead other residents to stay without hesitation.
There were also people who looked determined and were determined to leave. One of them was Tang Junliang, the captain of another team, who also had some friendship with Ling Mingzhi.
Ling Mingzhi could tell at a glance that he had made up his mind.
"You still have to leave."
"Well, my parents and wife are there, there's no way I can leave them behind." Tang Junliang said with a firm look.
He knew very well that Overlord Village was not a good place, and as the lord of Ke Gaojie it was even worse, but his relatives were there, and now was not the right time.
"Then take care of yourself. After you go back, he will definitely ask you about the situation here. Just tell him directly." Ling Mingzhi said.
"Okay." Tang Junliang nodded, looked around and said, "I'll go first."
He just stayed here just to see what Hope Village was like. It would be a way for him to have a destination and a way out in the future.
After saying that, Tang Junliang left.
After him, more and more people chose to leave. Some of them did so because their families could not let them go, and some thought that after learning about the situation at the scene, they might have a chance to please Ke Gaojie if they returned.
The residents of Hope Village did not stop or attack those who left.
After a short while, those who had to leave had left, and the remaining residents of Overlord Village all became residents of Hope Village.
【New residents: 178】
[New prisoners: 25 people]
[Dear host, you captured 25 prisoners in the territory war. You can choose to make them residents or slaves? ]
Seeing this news, Zhou Bai was surprised. Looking at the expressions of those captured residents, he directly chose the residents.
The next moment after the selection, the captives received the notification that they had become residents. They were in disbelief at first, but then they became excited after they realized what was happening.
“I’ve become a resident of Hope Village!”
Others didn't understand and asked directly: "We already knew it a long time ago, why are you so excited?"
"We were just captured. Didn't you see the note that Hope Village could take us as slaves? Although we don't know the specific role of slaves, their fate will definitely not be good."
"Then Hope Village is really kind." Many people felt relieved after hearing this. They had already stayed and allowed Hope Village to control them, but they did not choose to be controlled. This only proved one thing, that they made the right choice.
Looking at the "low demands" of these Overlord Village residents, Zhou Bai couldn't help but twitch his lips.
How unpopular this Overlord Village is!
Yes, if she had won the hearts of the people, she would not have taken so many "advantages" at this time.
Immediately afterwards, Zhou Bai received an official message from the system regarding this territory war: [Dear host, the territory war has ended. Congratulations on your successful defense of your territory and victory. Rewards are being settled. Please wait...]
Watching this, Zhou Bai couldn't help but look forward to the reward. He wondered what he would get from the other party's territory.
**
On the other side, in Overlord Village, Ke Gaojie also received similar information.
[Dear host, the territory war has ended. Your territory challenge has failed. The penalty is being settled. Please wait...]
But compared to the price to be paid, Ke Gaojie cares more about the people he brought to Hope Village.
Originally there were more than 200 people going out, but now only dozens of people are back.
Where are his people? Where did they go???
