Surviving The Fourth Calamity

’Snow Cloud Peak’ sighed softly.

When there are too many people, the unity breaks.

Even such a trivial matter can be played out like this.

How simple it would be if everyone were like him!

He observed the movement routes of key personnel on the tablet and summarized the whispers from those families. He directly gave an instruction: ”Go through the back door when you leave. Let’s have a meeting later.”

He even sent this message to the entire Proud Sky Alliance without caring if outsiders might see it.

Whatever the matter, being open instead can reduce prying eyes.

As for the unavoidable ones... even if they are extra cautious, it won’t matter.

Heh~

As soon as the number of people knowing something exceeds ten, don’t think about keeping it secret for more than an hour.

Those fools from Black Rose, always thinking their people are trustworthy!

They don’t consider how many people are watching their movements?

It would be better to openly mention gathering at the back door; it might make those without ulterior motives ignore it.

Besides, it can confuse some of the observations.

’Snow Cloud Peak’ glanced diagonally backward... although he doesn’t really dislike ’Lu Huayu’, it doesn’t mean he will let that cunning guy have it easy.

The past is not something that hasn’t happened, right?

When it’s time to find fault, he must do it.

For instance, first throw some Rose’s dirt between those scheming allies.

Even though Zhu Meili and ’Lu Huayu’ already know they’re not good things, their alliance is fragile, but adding another strand is always better, right?

Rather than letting others take advantage of it, which will inevitably be discovered, it’s better to make their own adversaries have a hard time!

However, Black Rose is always straightforward, either cursing or fighting, so it’s not surprising here.

’Snow Cloud Peak’ put away his tablet, crossed his arms and thought carefully... whatever Black Rose is up to, it will not affect the overall interest of the Proud Sky Alliance.

The secret of the back door must only be related to money.

Shaer?

He couldn’t help but frown slightly.

Although ’Snow Cloud Peak’ knows Shaer means no harm, this feeling of being collected information still makes him uncomfortable.

Especially when it’s based on obvious human observation, which leads him to think of some unpleasant past.

But ’Snow Cloud Peak’ also understands, this is just to be closer to the image of the All Gods... the true humanity of the Undead Tribe can’t be shown by Shaer’s methods.

Many people, facing benefits in the game, may not be their true selves... there are plenty who are stingy in real life but spend copiously in the game.

Of course, there are also those who spend freely in real life but are stingy in the game.

The true character of the Undead Tribe is never displayed in a game.

But, the core of these western-style games, once overly realistic... heh~ Teraxil is okay, Toril over there, is a literal reflection of Western philosophy!

Every deity aligns with their own deep exploration of their soul.

Yet, this is also why ’Snow Cloud Peak’ feels this game can keep him engaged.

A game that can stir his fighting spirit against anyone, really isn’t common.

He is even willing to bind his future with this game... every time crushing the enemy underfoot feels so wonderful.

Wonderful enough that he is willing to send out his soul... nothing is more perfect than constant revenge, isn’t it?

’Snow Cloud Peak’ feels very eager to sign that invitation of ’whether willing to integrate one’s soul into the game’.

He is willing to become a warrior in the game whose existence makes both deities and humans tremble.

”Damn it.” Already down the mountain and starting to observe the ’Defense Tower Refugee Camp’, ’Old Age Striking King’ took out his tablet, unable to control his emotions, cursed directly.

”Haven’t we already achieved our goal?” ’Cunlü’ curiously looked at her, ”Why are you still so angry?

The top 20 best mission rewards, not one taken by outsiders!

Moreover, they probably overlooked such a task because of Passion Fruit’s presence. They might not compete with us for the top places tomorrow... we might even snatch a top 10 spot?

Why are you so angry!”

”Not a single good thing among them.” ’Old Age Striking King’ said angrily, ”Look at their reaction speed, apart from Zhu Meili who returned a bit later and is still clueless, the rest are just like living in our family’s homes!”

”That’s pointless. Aren’t we the same?” ’Hard Wind’ silently stretched, ”Speaking of which, you are quite impressive, managing to hide our existence!”

”Heh~” ’Old Age Striking King’ raised an eyebrow, ”Who told them to ignore that you were standing at the very front of the Scattered Ones team, just by the back door!”

’Cunlü’ touched her brown long hair, and then looked down at the formal earth robe she was wearing: ”If it were me, I wouldn’t have imagined that I’d dress so properly.”

She couldn’t help but sigh.

Although her outfit wasn’t inconspicuous among the Undead Tribe, it was unbelievably plain compared to her past self who always led fashion trends.

”So, what’s gotten into you lately?” ’Old Age Striking King’ asked with a tilt of her head.

”My daughter started school!” ’Cunlü’ said with a face full of melancholy.

”What’s the big deal about that?” ’Old Age Striking King’ asked, a bit puzzled, ”Even if you could play games with your kid, you’d have to wait until she’s 16, right?

Besides, she’d only be able to play in Teraxil. Toril is an adult channel; she can’t go there.

What are you worried about?

Sure, a mother has her obligations, but... it doesn’t mean you have to become an old maid.”

”She was bragging and let the kid know her gaming name.

Then my daughter learned how to search online terms.” ’Hard Wind’ said slowly, ”Now she just wants to do something proper to suppress some past things.”

”Aesces stuff, doesn’t matter much, right?” ’Old Age Striking King’ asked, curious, ”You’re so gorgeous, so...”

”What the heck! It was during that song on Toril!” ’Cunlü’ yelled exasperatedly, ”I don’t mind if my daughter thinks I’m stunning and adored by everyone.

But I mind her learning that song and saying I taught it to her.

My mom would rush from home and break my legs!”

”Uh...” ’Old Age Striking King’ glanced at ’Cunlü’ in a daze, ”What do you plan to do?

Seems like this place is just a battlefield world, isn’t it?

Humans mostly live in small residential areas, refugee camps, and such.

Nothing here to show off!”

’Cunlü’ rolled up her sleeves and struck a strongman pose: ”No opportunities mean creating opportunities.

I say, Old Age, did you forget, this world doesn’t suppress the upper limits that much... Our Wild Boar Legion can hit the field!

After all, dealing with Devils, it’s an honor for them to stomp and charge!”

”So, you’d rather let your daughter think mom is the Boar Queen?” ’Romantic Drunk Red Dust’, who had remained silent, couldn’t help but ask.

”Idiot!” ’Cunlü’ mercilessly scolded, ”To kids, the Boar Queen is the cutest mom!

Besides, my daughter is originally the Boar Princess.”

’Romantic Drunk Red Dust’ looked at ’Hard Wind’ incredulously, signaling the Boar Prince with his eyes... Have the couple gone nuts?

”Old bachelors shouldn’t speculate on people’s family lives; you wouldn’t understand even if I told you.” ’Universal Sky Net’ stepped forward to stand in front of her master.

’Old Age Striking King’ suddenly clapped her hands: ”Hey~ that’s right!

The Devils in this world, supposedly not that strong, the truly powerful ones have left, and the ones remaining can be stomped by our Duchess.

So all our animal companions can come out!

William mentioned that now the partner space’s retrieval ability is enhanced, ensuring animal companions can be retrieved when they only have a tenth of their health left, right?

Isn’t that right?

I remember this update said the partner space can prevent the misfortune of death from critical hits.”

”Exactly!” ’Cunlü’ said with a grin, ”So, our animal companions don’t need to only appear in advantageous battles like before.”

”Hehe~” ’Old Age Striking King’ waved a hand, and a wolverine appeared beside her, ”William didn’t let us bring dragons into this world; I felt quite lonely.”

Then her small body suddenly leapt onto the huge wolverine, hugging and rubbing it furiously, ”Hehe~ Nadia~ Nadia~

We can battle together now!”

The wolverine stood firm, merely adjusting its posture to let its partner rest more comfortably: ”Your White Dragon is wailing; she’s unhappy.”

”There’s nothing I can do about that!” ’Old Age Striking King’ shook her head, ”I don’t know why William didn’t allow our dragon companions to come to this world; didn’t he say there were dragons here?

Let her stay in Toril to play for a while by herself until I come back and return to me; she won’t agree.”

”Who would be willing to leave their partner?” The wolverine spoke with a hint of laughter, ”Though the partner space is cozy, I still prefer to be by your side.

Even if there’s danger.”

Faced with Nadia’s repeated old topic, ’Old Age Striking King’ simply smiled slightly... They all knew, no Undead would want their partner to disappear forever.

Especially for a funny reason... letting friends fight desperately for someone who won’t die.

Even the most shameless, cold-blooded people can’t do this... Of course, such people also have no friends.
