330: Chapter 330 Truce 330: Chapter 330 Truce Augustus, Long Ming, Ithlin, and Spade, after listening to their respective reports, exchanged glances and imdiately stood up to gather together for a discussion.
The surrounding counciln also sensed that sothing was amiss and gathered around.
“I always feel there’s sothing not quite right, the Earth Cup in the past never had so many changes.”
Long Ming said with a grave voice.
“The rules keep changing.”
Augustus pointed out the crux of the issue in one sentence.
“So what do we do now, do we keep fighting or not?”
Ithlin asked in a serious tone.
“What’s the point of fighting?
If we end up killing each other off and can’t even get the rewards from the Earth Cup, that would be the real joke.”
Spade replied irritably.
“Then, let’s not fight.”
Long Ming responded simply.
“Alright, that’s the decision.
The war gas end here, no more fighting, let’s have a ceasefire!
The priority now is to take down Praying Dragon City and Black Water City, and work together to secure the Earth Cup,”
Augustus agreed completely.
“That’s what we’ll do!
Hurry and notify everyone, cease hostilities imdiately!!!”
Ithlin couldn’t care less about the details.
The four of them took only a few minutes to reach a consensus in their discussion.
However, the others listening in nearby were still in the fog, having no idea what was going on.
…..
On Qilong Plain, Su Mo and the others watched each other warily, even though both sides had received orders for a ceasefire.
Still on guard against each other, they sent out scouts to verify the authenticity of the news.
Of course, this scene wasn’t only playing out on Su Mo’s side but was happening on every battlefield across Qilong Plain.
Especially on the main battlefield, where a lee had been raging, everyone stopped upon receiving the order, looking at the enemies before them, unsure whether to fight or not to fight.
After confirming the orders ti and again,
Commander Xiao Wen walked alone towards the enemy forces, and at this mont, an obese man also walked out from the opposing side.
Boendo and Commander Xiao Wen approached each other between the two armies and extended their hands to embrace one another!
Seeing this, the players present cheered loudly.
“Oye!!!”
Players from both sides rushed towards each other, hugging and jumping for joy.
Su Mo was stunned by the sight.
“What’s this, Sister Xue?”
“There’s nothing surprising, nobody really wanted to fight; it was just because of affiliations with different camps.
Initially, I was puzzled too, wondering why we couldn’t coexist peacefully and develop together.
Was it because the top brass failed to agree?
But at this mont, I understand completely; the Federation Council never had an issue with unity, the upper echelons didn’t fall apart.
Moreover, since nobody truly dies in this war, it doesn’t sow too many seeds of hatred, making reconciliation naturally easy.”
Qian Chengxue spoke reflectively.
“Then what was the point of our previous battles?”
Sun Li asked, perplexed.
“That I’m not sure about; perhaps only the strategists above know the inside story.
However, I have a bold guess that this might have been a training exercise in preparation for the Heavenly Cup.
After all, it’s been a long ti since the nations have gone to war; they need to sharpen their skills before entering the battlefield.”
After speaking, Qian Chengxue opened the cockpit, jumped down from it, and looked at the excited crowd embracing each other, unable to help but reveal a slight smile.
Nothing was more joyful than peaceful coexistence.
…..
At night, mbers from both sides sat together, drinking and eating at heartily.
Xiao Wen, Su Mo, Qian Chengxue, and Boendo gathered around a campfire.
Snowflakes kept falling.
Boendo spoke to Xiao Wen in his broken Z-country language, “Commander Xiao Wen, you are the most talented young commander I have ever seen.
You wouldn’t believe how your troops have caused us to curse up a storm in the rear.”
“Haha, you flatter too much, I owe my success entirely to Mr.
Su Mo and Miss Qian Chengxue.”
Xiao Wen replied fluently in M-country language.
Hearing Xiao Wen’s words, Boendo’s eyes lit up and he strode directly toward Su Mo.
“Are you Mr.
Su Mo?”
Su Mo, completely baffled, asked, “Do you know ?”
If he rembered correctly, this was definitely the first ti he had t Boendo.
Xiao Wen and the others were also very curious.
Boendo, grinning broadly, extended his hand and shook hands with Su Mo as he spoke, “Haha, I didn’t expect to et you in person so close at hand, I didn’t recognize you for a mont.”
“Er…”
Stunned, Su Mo was at a loss for words, wondering what was going on.
“Mr.
Su Mo, don’t be surprised.
You see, my daughter Brenna is your fan, she admires you greatly, and keeps talking about getting your autograph.
I wonder if it’s convenient for you?”
Boendo revealed sothing that shocked Su Mo greatly.
“My fan?”
Su Mo could not help but laugh and cry.
Since when did he also have fans?
Boendo smiled and explained to Su Mo, “I forgot to tell you sothing.
You may not be too famous in your own country, as there are many people famous from the battlefield.
Plus, you haven’t been promoted much and rarely appear in public, so not many people know you.
But in M-country, you’re sowhat famous and have hundreds of thousands of fans!
My daughter is one of your fans.”
After listening, Su Mo’s expression was very animated, and he coughed as he spoke to Boendo, “Alright, but since this is a ga, I can’t sign anything here.”
“No problem, once you log out, just send a letter to this address.”
Boendo, very happy, took out a pen and wrote down an address for Su Mo.
“Alright…”
Su Mo took it.
Xiao Wen smiled and asked Boendo.
“Mr.
Boendo, have you received any other orders?”
“Nothing at the mont, but I have so insider information.
We might all have to head to the main battlefield to join the main force.
If I’m not mistaken, we’re probably going to combine forces to attack Praying Dragon City.”
Boendo explained to Xiao Wen.
“I heard that Praying Dragon City is tough to take down?”
“Not just tough, it’s extrely tough.
We tried attacking it before and suffered terrible casualties.
But tough or not, we have to attack it, because I’ve heard sothing.”
Here, Boendo lowered his voice a bit.
“What’s that?”
Su Mo and the others listened intently with curiosity.
“The rules for the Earth Cup changed this ti, and they are quite peculiar.
Satellite images captured a bizarre scene: vast amounts of pale green fog released from the Central Continent, surging to the edges of all continents through the troposphere, and now it’s enveloping us.
The monsters touched by the pale green fog beco even more violent and powerful.
Players who co into contact without protection die quickly and turn into monsters.”
Boendo shared the latest insider information he had received.
“So, you an our ceasefire is related to the start of the Earth Cup?”
Xiao Wen mused aloud.
“Exactly, but the specifics are unclear to .
However, once we join up with the main force, everything should beco clear.
I’ve heard that the Council President and others are coming to Star Ring to take command in person.”
