...
After cleaning up the battlefield, Bao'er arrived late.
Li Qiusheng was just asking Weng Xintian and A Bao, "You arrived just in time! You're so lucky!"
Ah Bao raised his wristwatch: "I was just playing around and happened to be hunting mutated beasts nearby when I received Su Ye's message, so I rushed over."
Weng Xintian was always sensitive to such coincidences: "It's quite a coincidence. Business at the trading market has been booming lately, and I was thinking of expanding my territory, so I brought some people out to take a look. Just as we were about to head back home, I happened to receive a message from Miss Su."
Ah Bao snorted softly, still displeased by the way Weng Xintian was examining the objects.
Bu Yi, who was listening nearby, pondered to himself whether this coincidence was preordained or whether it was the effect of changing one's fate.
If it's about changing fate, then Ah Bao and Weng Xintian's decisions were made before she used her supernatural abilities.
If it was a coincidence, then she should never have asked and gotten such a terrible result.
After much deliberation, Bu Yi felt that perhaps the change in fate had taken effect. She had a feeling that a great calamity had been transformed into many small misfortunes, and that the nine of them might experience some difficulties in the coming days.
Weng Xintian was puzzled: "Not only is today's event coincidental, but I am also...hard to predict."
He deliberately spoke vaguely in front of Ah Bao.
Bu Yi, who was also a follower of metaphysics, understood the meaning, but she remained silent out of guilt. In any case, now that their fates had been altered, Xia Chuhe and Lu Dangui were certainly safe.
...
After the battlefield was cleaned up, the Meow Meow Legion and the Trading Post rested on the spot.
The other two groups, having witnessed their strength, did not resort to violence but instead selected representatives to engage in friendly negotiations.
The larger force belongs to Dream Chaser City, while the smaller force belongs to Crescent Moon City. They all come with only one purpose—to divide up the territory.
The Happy Five-Star Hotel copy disappeared, and 600,000 square meters of land appeared out of thin air. Although the place is not large, the soil that was just cleared is relatively clean. After the underground is prepared, it will be suitable for growing mushrooms or raising devil worms.
Weng Xintian, who comes from a lighthouse background, has encountered similar situations many times.
The rule on the other side of the lighthouse is that the game-breaker and the surrounding forces share equally. The game-breaker is the one who solves the instance, obtains its core, and makes a huge contribution to clearing it out. However, the game-breaker's actions also bring inconvenience to the surrounding forces. The disappearance of the instance means that the surrounding people can no longer profit from it, so sharing some land is a form of compensation for them.
If the disruptor does not have their own power and does not want the land, they can distribute their land equally among other forces in exchange for a certain return.
Dream City and Full Moon City had similar intentions. They demanded 150,000 square meters of land from each, with the remaining 300,000 square meters to be divided equally between the Cape Trading Center and Xia Chuhe. If Xia Chuhe didn't want the land, they were very willing to exchange it for goods.
Weng Xintian had already agreed to Xia Chuhe's reasonable request, and was even considering how to persuade her if she didn't agree.
Weng Xintian said, "As you all have seen, the Breaker encountered some trouble as soon as she came out. Since she's not here, it's not appropriate for me to make the decision. Please be patient, everyone. In any case, we will not break the rules."
The representative from Dream City looked at Bu Yi and the others, his tone slightly provocative: "Aren't they together? Can't they make the decision?"
Bu Yi asked politely, "Which faction are you from?"
The representative was taken aback and said unhappily, "Dream Chasing City, haven't you heard of it?"
Upon hearing the words "Dream City," Zhao Maomao's expression changed.
Others might not know what this faction represented, but he and Bu Yi had both run the Bird Island instance and would never forget it.
In the Bird Island instance, Xia Chuhe's intelligence is impaired, Lu Dangui becomes manic, Bu Yi's superpowers malfunction, and Zhao Maomao is overly sensitive. The main reason the four entered Bird Island is that the Star Seekers from Dream City want to poach Lu Dangui! Throughout the instance, the Star Seekers repeatedly eye Lu Dangui covetously!
Although Xia Chuhe and the others swiftly and decisively killed the Star Seeker in the instance, Bu Yi and Zhao Maomao were still displeased upon hearing the name of Dream Chaser City.
Li Yue and the other man looked displeased and were also annoyed by the words of the representative of Dream City. They couldn't help but say sarcastically, "What a powerful force you are, what a busy person. We are not even worth waiting for you for a moment."
The representative retorted, "You flatter me. I am a bit better than you, at least I have some right to speak."
Instead of getting angry, Li Yue laughed: "This is the first time I've heard of something as trivial as speaking being called power by some people."
The representative flew into a rage: "You glib-tongued woman, if you're so capable, then come up with an idea for me!"
"Hmph, I do have an idea, but you keep talking about rules, which are so overbearing. Your attitude isn't about negotiation, it's clearly about robbery." Li Yue wanted to continue, wanting to ensure that Dream Chaser City wouldn't get a single inch of land, but reason held her back. If she said that, not only would she be slapping Dream Chaser City in the face, but Round Moon City would also look bad.
The representative was speechless and turned red in the face. He tried to reason with the rules, but his sore spot had already been hit.
"Clap clap clap—"
"Well said!"
Applause erupted behind them. Xia Chuhe and Lu Dangui returned quietly, also releasing Zhu Guanshan along the way. Xia Chuhe was currently applauding Li Yue's words.
Xia Chuhe was indifferent to the ownership of the land. However, she considered that her teammates were native wastelanders, and having some territory would provide them with support in the future. At the very least, they could give the land to the trading market or the Meow Meow Legion to repay a favor or gain more say in the matter.
As for Dream City, if it weren't for the fact that we would be passing through this city, Xia Chuhe would have said even harsher things than Li Yue.
Xia Chuhe sneered, "Your rules are paramount. We are just lowly people with no influence. There's no point in saying more. Just follow the rules."
