Chapter 146
Blue Star Service.
Due to special reasons, there are not many ordinary players in this place, and most of the players are agents. Recently, the activities of many players have been converging on White Night Town.
Because as early as three game days ago, all agents active on Blue Star, as long as they were affiliated with the Star Alliance, no matter which civilization they belonged to, received a notice to go to the vicinity of White Night Town and stand by.
This mobilization covered a wide range. Many players who always seemed to act alone and did not belong to any civilization also appeared in this operation, revealing the secret that they belonged to a certain civilization.
Even civilizations that had fought wars with each other received unified action orders issued by the civilization.
Because this is a joint operation commanded by the Star Alliance, and the participants are the forefront of the entire Blue Star server. Among them, the top players have completed their second job transfer and their levels have exceeded 40.
Interstellar agents are different from the guild factions in traditional online games. They don't need to know the reason for the action to firmly carry out orders.
Standing on the watchtower of Baiye Town, one can clearly see that the number of players active in the wilderness of the territory is increasing, gradually forming an encirclement of this first town. It can be said that more than 80% of the players in the entire Blue Star server have gathered here, which shows its scale.
Even the sentinels who were used to seeing players in the wild noticed something was wrong and reported it to Ye Bai.
"My Lord, a group of divine-blooded individuals have gathered outside the territory..."
"I know." Ye Bai nodded calmly, looking like he had expected this.
Ye Bai could not be found in the Star Alliance's sphere of influence, and there was no response to the message sent through the Star Network. In this case, the only target of the Star Alliance's test was the "White Night" in the game.
In the past, the Star Alliance had always been confused about Bai Ye’s identity and purpose, and was unclear about her strength and whereabouts. Under heavy suspicion, they naturally did not dare to act rashly.
Now that they have the clue and suspicion of the ancient human Ye Bai, how can they just sit there and wait for death? Whether it is to test her strength or to take the opportunity to suppress Baiye Town, the probing action from the Star Alliance will eventually come.
What's more, how could other civilizations not be completely envious of the various resources possessed by the territory of the number one player in Baiye Town?
However, a single attempt was enough to mobilize 80% of the players on the entire Blue Star server, forcing Ye Bai to sigh that the Star Alliance was indeed the behemoth that ended the Dark Forest Era.
As dusk approaches, the players in the wilderness can no longer hide. The encircled White Night Town looks like an isolated island standing on the sea.
In this situation, Ye Bai did not deploy any unnecessary military actions, but instead came to the Tree of Creation in the territory and touched the trunk.
【White Night Town】
Lord: White Night
Current population: 1,241
Health: 93
Hygiene: 95
Entertainment: 96
Luxury goods demand: 100 (sugar, fine wine, furniture, fabrics, handicrafts)
Personal hobby needs: (1/7)
Happiness: 97
Education rate: General education (42%), full-time education (23%), extraordinary knowledge I (1%)
With the graduation of a new batch of general education students, Baiye Town once again met the upgrade conditions for a level six territory. Moreover, after the construction of the intermediate library, it also met the upgrade conditions for a level seven territory - the territory population exceeded one thousand; the intermediate library was built.
The system prompts followed closely——
[The conditions for upgrading to level 6 territory have been met. Do you want to upgrade? ]
【yes】
[The conditions for upgrading to level 7 territory have been met. Baiye Town will be renamed Baiye City. Do you want to upgrade? ]
【yes】
Ye Bai chose to upgrade two levels without stopping.
This means that the monster attacks on the night of the town upgrade will be 'merged', and the strength and number of monsters coming tonight will be multiplied.
The Tree of Creation in front of him had undergone obvious changes. This giant tree with a dreamy and mysterious appearance now emitted an unprecedented light. The golden, blue and red energy veins representing the three schools of technology were drawn from its void roots, flowing through its branches, and eventually became flower buds on the branches.
After a brief pause, a new system prompt appeared.
[The blossoming of the Tree of Creation has attracted powerful creatures from the dimensional rifts. Please be prepared for defense tonight.]
Different from the previous description of 'surrounding beasts', this upgrade is particularly different.
“Dangdangdang…”
The news of the territory upgrade spread throughout the town through the ringing of bells, and ordinary residents quickened their actions as they had done with every previous upgrade.
Ye Bai withdrew his hand and walked towards Blaise and Felix who were walking quickly.
The two of them knew that there were a large number of players gathered, and they were very puzzled as to why Ye Bai chose to upgrade the territory at this time.
Before they could ask, Ye Bai had already quickly issued an order:
"The entire town is under martial law. Without my order, everyone must stay inside the building and are not allowed to come out."
The two men stopped abruptly, stunned. "Including the personal guards? Including the sentry tower guards? Including the territory crossbowmen?"
"Yes, I mean everyone." Ye Bai confirmed again.
"My Lord..." Blaise and Felix hesitated and wanted to say something, but Ye Bai waved his hand and emphasized, "This is my order."
"yes!"
Hearing this, the two men were shocked, pounded their chests at the same time, and responded loudly.
"Upgrading the territory at this time?"
The strange phenomenon of the upgrade in Baiye Town did not escape the players outside the city. The strange fragrance after the Tree of Creation bloomed and the spores flying in the sky in the territory were now very familiar to every player in the world.
Among the large army of players, a regional operations commander shook his head.
There are a total of four temporary regional action commanders for this operation, all of whom are well-known military commanders in the civilizations under the Star Alliance. Each person's command range corresponds to the four directions of White Night Town.
These four commanders all possessed a telepathic talent, linking them to the ten squadron commanders, using them as their own 'tentacles' to direct the detailed actions of the army.
In the context of interstellar warfare, this kind of scene is completely overused.
Because of extremely advanced communications, a single commander can command the overall situation in an interstellar war. It is even possible that in a war, both sides will use unmanned fighter jets, and in the end there will be no casualties except for economic losses.
However, because there is no traditional online game communication method in the Myriad Worlds, the commanders and warriors of the Star Alliance can only choose to fight in a "primitive" way that they are not very adapted to.
But even so, Bai Ye's upgrade at this time seems to be an attempt to divert the blame...
"Too naive." Another regional operations commander was also communicating with his companions through the mental link.
Those gathered here are no longer ordinary players who put profit above all else, but combatants who obey orders.
When the territory is upgraded and monsters are besieging it, even if the player will pass through their encirclement, the priority target is still the player's territory. As long as the player army is commanded not to provoke the highest-level big BOSS at that time, other ordinary beasts will be of no concern to the player army.
They can even wait for the BOSS to consume all the combat power of Baiye Town, and then enter the scene to reap the benefits.
Anyway, now that their purpose has been exposed, Baiye Town will have no chance of getting any benefits.
When receiving the news of this operation, several commanders who understood the purpose of the operation all thought of the "Roy City Incident" that occurred before the entire galaxy entered the official player stage.
That was the only "Fourth Calamity" event that had ever occurred in the Myriad Realms. A civilization organized a large army of players to capture a city, but in the end, the entire army was annihilated.
But no one would think that the result this time would be the same as that time - even if they were facing the 'number one person in the world' and the 'number one player's territory'.
Baiye Town is only a level five territory. After all, player towns do not have the profound and extraordinary foundation of NPC towns. Moreover, they are all official players now and are no longer the tourist accounts they used to be.
Moreover, among the personnel in this operation, one tenth of the players have completed the second job change and their levels have exceeded level 40. Their strength has changed dramatically compared to the first job change period. It is impossible for them to fail, even if it is as Bai Ye wishes and helps her deal with some of the monsters attacking the city.
As time slowly passed, the isolated and helpless White Night Town and the encircled army of players were in a silent stalemate, welcoming the arrival of night.
The commanders who thought they had 'seen through' Bai Ye's plan also discovered something unusual.
"It's a bit strange... Why don't I see any crossbowmen from Baiye Town on the city wall?"
The ordinary residents of White Night Town faithfully carried out the lord's orders. Before night fell, they handled everything, returned to their homes, and closed the doors.
The lord's personal guards, territory crossbowmen, city defense tower guards...all military units are on standby in non-open-air buildings such as barracks and guard posts.
Soon, the gates of Baiye Town were closed and it looked extremely desolate.
After packing his backpack and preparing for battle, Ye Bai left the mayor's office, followed by Ottophis, who was walking on the deserted street with a paper man pendant hanging around his waist.
Cross the main road, walk to the edge of the city wall, and climb up the stone steps.
With the first step, a golden light flashed that only she could see.
Ye Bai upgraded from level 60 to level 61.
In the second step, the leather armor and light feather cloak on her body changed, and a black robe with a unique style covered her figure.
Ye Bai changed into the Assassin's camp uniform [Assassin's Robe], which he hadn't worn for a long time.
In the third step, the snow-colored sword that was almost becoming her signature weapon disappeared from her hand, and was replaced by a pure black code with mysterious words interwoven with gold and blood on the cover.
As a magic profession, Ye Bai put on equipment that matched his professional style for the first time.
"boom……"
The moment he picked up this artifact representing the law of death, all of Ye Bai's exposed skin turned pale blue-gray. The pupils of his eyes under the hood completely disappeared, and two clusters of dark green ghost flames suddenly lit up.
When Ye Bai stepped onto the high city wall.
At this moment, the identity column in her personal panel had completely changed.
Aside from the most essential Divine Blood, all other extra identities such as White Night Town Lord, Historian, Legendary Figure, etc., disappeared and became another identity—
Undead Lord.
