Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1909: Chapter 1913: Merely Pawns

Silver Fox was trembling, afraid, and constantly struggling on the edge of the abyss.

He once thought he was a clever man who could toy with those foolish cultivators.

Later he discovered that his little tricks were nothing more than child’s play in the eyes of the Lord.

After Lu Xiaobu and Lin Feng appeared, he once again thought he could compete with these two.

In the end, he was wrong again.

So, after much consideration, he chose to submit to Lin Feng.

Since then, he really had the feeling that he had made the right choice and everything was going smoothly.

And under his witness, Lu Xiaobu and Lin Feng also fought many times.

The strategies on both sides were endless, making him dizzy with amazement and admiration.

However, he later thought it through carefully.

So he realized that Lu Xiaobu and Lin Feng didn’t seem to be that powerful, if it were him, he just needed to think a few more steps to achieve the same.

But!

The scene happening now, this unprecedented battle completely shattered his arrogance.

He truly saw how terrifying these two were!

The over a hundred Mahayana of the Chaotic Domain and Lin Country not even having their own will to fight at this moment!

Doesn’t it feel terrifying and unbelievable?

Actually, if he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed it!

”Order, Hu Fei advance two hundred meters, stab with full force to the left with a knife.” Lin Feng coldly commanded.

”Yes!”

Silver Fox mechanically responded to the order.

Lin Feng: ”Jiu Liu retreat twenty meters and slay towards the sky.”

”Yes!”

Silver Fox nodded and took the order.

Lin Feng: ”After the slay, retreat immediately, wait for orders at original position.”

Silver Fox: ”Yes!”

He didn’t ask why after giving Hu Fei the order, there were no more orders for Hu Fei.

Because this question, Lin Feng had already given him the answer with several facts!

The answer was—those without subsequent orders, were to have their domain blown up next!

Sure enough!

After Hu Fei charged forward with red eyes according to the order and slashed, he was suddenly attacked by three people simultaneously, and his formidable domain exploded instantly!

Until the domain exploded, Hu Fei did not understand why his domain was suddenly blown up.

Even though every previous action according to orders resulted in safety!

Lin Feng: ”Let Liu He, who was on standby previously, replace Hu Fei’s position, entangle the person attacking in the middle.”

Silver Fox: ”Yes!”

Now, besides silently nodding in agreement, he couldn’t do anything else!

Not just him, all the combat personnel were like this!

They must act under command!

Because, following orders, there was a chance to ensure the domain wasn’t blasted!

And not following orders, the domain would inevitably be blasted the next moment!

...

Not only did the combat personnel on Lin Country’s side have this thought, but the combat personnel on the Chaotic Domain’s side had almost identical thoughts.

Because their leader, Lu Xiaobu, was also issuing one precise and almost shocking command after another.

How far, which direction to attack, with what strength, everything was planned tightly for them.

Even if fear and confusion lingered in their hearts, they could only move according to the orders.

Because like Lin Country’s combat personnel, if they didn’t follow orders, the result would be the same with their domain being blasted!

...

All the onlookers felt chills down their spines watching!

They had never expected that one day a battle could evolve into something like this!

Is this something humans could do?!

How is this possible!

...

Not only the onlookers, but even the No. 2 beside the Lord was stunned, her eyes nearly popping out.

She had never seen such an eerie battle scene!

Yes, eerie!

She could only describe it as eerie!

Isn’t battle supposed to be autonomous, chaotic, unpredictable?

Even with battlefield strategies, shouldn’t it be like Lu Xiaobu and Lin Feng’s plans before, contending in broader aspects?

How has it become detailed to this extent?!

These are not inanimate objects, but people, people with thoughts!

”Rather than saying they’re fighting, it would be better to say they’re playing chess.”

The Lord seemed to enjoy watching, even having the mood to offer an explanation to No. 2.

”Playing chess?! Making Mahayana cultivators into chess pieces?! How is that possible?! They all have their own thoughts, how could they be just controlled by these two?!” No. 2 wore a face of confusion and bewilderment.

”Thoughts?” The Lord’s lips curved into an arc: ”What are thoughts? Unpredictable is called thoughts, if it can be predicted, it’s just tolerance!”

”Could it be, the thoughts and strength of the Mahayana cultivators...” No. 2 suddenly became a bit terrified at this point.

Because the meaning contained in the Lord’s words was too frightening!

”Far too narrow!” The Lord glanced at No. 2, giving her a conclusion, then continued to gaze at the battlefield.

As he watched, he spoke:

”First, this is not reality. Even though the consequence of the domain exploding and coordinates being exposed makes them anxious, it’s still not death, not what they’re most afraid of! Since it’s not the most frightening, it won’t drive them to the most desperate place, meaning their fear has an upper and lower limit.”

”Second, the battles between Chaotic Domain and Lin Country have happened more than once or twice. Their thoughts of obeying Lu Xiaobu and Lin Feng’s orders have already formed a reflexive subconsciousness!”

”Third, when they first feel the danger was narrowly avoided by following these two’s orders, they’ll instinctively believe—so long as they follow orders, they won’t die! Coupled with those who disobey hanging immediately afterward, out of a tendency to seek fortune and avoid misfortune, they will reluctantly trust these two’s orders again!”

”Fourth, these Mahayana may have varying strength in reality, and many cultivators even have burst seed secret techniques or the like, but here in the Spirit Realm, their strength can be judged by the size of their domain. With the knowledge accumulated over time, for these two to memorize and analyze information from each of their fifty or so people, even the enemy’s, is a simple task! Hence, their strength now has an upper and lower limit in their estimation!”

”Thus, with a mental upper and lower limit, a strength upper and lower limit, I ask, in such circumstances, these Mahayana cultivators who act almost solely on instinct, these Mahayana cultivators, would there be any difference if you call them inanimate objects?”

”Isn’t it true that they are merely chess pieces in the hands of those two?”

As the Lord spoke, a mysterious smile played on his lips.

It was a smile of confidence and mastery.

And No. 2 was drenched in sweat from fear—this was too frightening!
