Hulong Manor was not devoid of neighbors amidst the mountains.
In fact, the manor was established on the outskirts of a large city.
Therefore, the number of players nearby was quite substantial.
It was clear that a major city rested within the mountains; though a mountain city, it was extrely thriving.
Travelers and rchants gathered from all roads, and the teahouses, taverns, and inns buzzed with activity.
Moreover, due to the intimidation from the nearby Hulong Manor, not a single Green Forest Force presence lingered around this mountain city.
Thus, both Hulong Manor and Iron Gall Divine Hou enjoyed a fine reputation in this region.
At that mont, as Jiang Dali suddenly released three Black Wind Arrows, three gleaming eagle heads imdiately attracted the attention of many in the mountain city below.
So players who were riding into the city, and others peddling on the mountain roads near the city, glanced up at the signals in the sky, first pausing in confusion before reacting with surprise.
"Black Wind Arrow?"
"What’s happening? Are there Eight Desolate Disciples or people from Black Wind Village nearby in trouble?"
"Damn, to release three Black Wind Arrows at once, is this about showing off wealth or is it a Ten Thousand Fire Urgency?"
"One Black Wind Arrow, brothers from the Eight Desolates co to et! Roar! Is it my brother calling ? The Blood of Eight Desolates in is already burning."
The players were all abuzz.
Among them, so Eight Desolate Disciples imdiately boiled with excitent, kicked away the roadside stalls, grabbed weapons, and picked up packs filled with li powder and various other cheap hidden weapons, ready to act.
However, the commotion quickly grew even louder.
Many people now gradually spotted two giant birds descending from the sky, circling the location where the three Black Wind Arrows had signaled.
The two birds occasionally nuzzled each other, displaying affection in a way that was exceptionally eye-catching.
Players instantly recognized the two giant birds and could vaguely see the figures standing on them, emitting a dark aura indicative of extre danger, which caused imdiate excitent.
"Shit, it’s the Black Wind Village Chief and his people!"
"Could it be that the Black Wind Village Chief released the Black Wind Arrows? Damn, now even the BOSS knows how to use Black Wind Arrows to summon minions, I doubt we’ll ever defeat the Black Wind Village Chief in this lifeti."
"Does the Black Wind Village Chief need our help with sothing? This is a task signal, brothers, stop your escort missions, let’s go and join the fun!"
A large number of quick-witted players had already set aside their various tasks at hand.
Like exuberant huskies, their faces brimming with careless smiles, they ran as if it were spring, heading straight for the location of the signal flares.
...
"Wow! Old Jiang, your appeal among these Abnormal People is really sothing else, to draw so many with just a signal flare."
From atop Divine Phoenix, Lu Xiaofeng looked down to see several mountain paths filling with scores of Abnormal People converging on this location and couldn’t help but express his genuine admiration and envy.
Back when he was in Yingtianfu, he had also used Abnormal People, knowing they were very usable, clever, enthusiastic, and he too wished to be as popular as Jiang Dali was among the Abnormal People.
Unfortunately, it seed to be wishful thinking at the mont.
In terms of attracting Abnormal People, he and Jiang Dali truly had a significant gap, much like the difference in attracting won, where he admitted that even on his best day, he couldn’t match Jiang Dali.
"It looks like the number of players is really not small; this area’s ’garlic chive’ field is very fertile, it would be even better if it could beco my own personal ’garlic chive’ field."
Jiang Dali, stroking his half-inch grown beard, ignored Lu Xiaofeng and pondered quietly.
Just then, he felt a sudden change in his interface.
He also heard a harsh alarm sound rising from within the city below.
The city’s soldiers seed to have been mobilized, preparing for battle in a frenzied rush.
Ancient crossbow turrets, untouched for years, were being pushed up to the city walls, aid at the sky.
Jiang Dali calmly looked at his interface.
"Warning! Warning!
You have entered the territory of Xi City, Ming Country, and have been spotted by the Ming military garrison within Xi City, though they appear very nervous and frightened.
Your ’Force People to Do Things’ title aura has automatically activated, as has your ’Hidden Dragon’ title aura.
Please restrain yourself from recklessly approaching, and trust that with your infamous reputation, the Xi City garrison will not initiate an attack."
"Tch!"
Jiang Dali chuckled dismissively, looking disdainful.
Taking proactive action.
If the generals and officials of Xi City dared to order an attack after consuming the courage of bears and leopards,
then he wouldn’t mind staging the most sensational feat in the history of the Mixed Martial Arts World—taking down a city of Ming Country by force.
It would serve as a surprise gift in return to the Ming Emperor!
Almost at the sa ti,
A significant number of players within Xi City also received a notification on their interfaces.
"Ergency situation encountered! Ergency situation encountered!
