Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 1500 The Game Arena 50
When Linlang saw someone attacking, she naturally did the same thing she did with the previous Fengyun territory: she would wait for the other party to attack her territory first, then upgrade that territory to a level four territory so that the other party could no longer attack. After that, she would seek revenge and take down the other party's territories to further expand her territory.

Seeing that Linlang's territory had been upgraded to level four, those people knew they had fallen into a trap. After all, they had the strength to upgrade to level four but didn't, waiting until they attacked before upgrading. They didn't believe there wasn't a conspiracy involved.

Sure enough, seeing that they couldn't defeat them and left, their own territory was immediately attacked by the other side. They knew that the territory they attacked might be a trap, just waiting for them to attack. Once they attacked, that person could openly attack them.

While most people wouldn't go to such lengths, like fishing, and would simply shoot whoever they want, there are always some people with a high sense of morality who would do such a thing.

However, by the time they had finished attacking Linlang's territory, it was too late to regret it. They were destined to be dealt with. Linlang quickly expanded her territory using this fishing method and became almost the largest lord in the vicinity—at least that's how it seemed from Linlang's observation.

Seeing herself as the largest lord in a vast area, Linlang was very satisfied, as it meant she was safe.

However, she cannot stop here, because if she does not continue to expand her territory, and people in other places expand their territory and launch an attack on her one day, she may not be able to defend herself, and all her previous efforts will be in vain, which is naturally not what she wants to see. Therefore, she will definitely continue to expand her territory. Fortunately, the fishing method is very useful, and there will always be people who underestimate her and fall for it, allowing her to continue to increase her territory by fishing.

After she acquired one hundred territories, a leaderboard appeared in the game: the Territory Leaderboard.

The game area has leaderboards.

This will pop up when the player reaches level 20.

Linlang was wondering why there wasn't a territory leaderboard when there was a level leaderboard. After all, the game was a territory game, and it turned out that it was the same as the player level leaderboard, and it would only be displayed after reaching certain goals.

Once Linlang had access to the leaderboard, she saw that it would display if someone owned a level 5 territory, or had a hundred territories below level 4.

It ranks people based on the level and number of territories they own.

First, they are ranked by level. For example, someone with a level 5 territory will definitely be ranked ahead of someone with a level 4 territory, even if that person only has one level 5 territory and someone with a level 4 territory has a hundred.

When the levels are the same, the quantity matters.

For example, if all owners own territories below level four, then the comparison is made based on who has more level four territories. If the number of level four territories is the same, then the comparison is made based on who has more level three territories.

If the number of territories is the same, then rank them according to the number of official residents under their jurisdiction.

After all, the world is so big and there are so many lords, it's quite normal for some people to have the exact same number of territories.

The territory rankings have three categories: the world rankings, the national rankings, and the regional rankings. There are too many heroes in the world, and Linlang is not currently ranked very high on the world rankings. However, she has squeezed into the top 100 on the national rankings. Although she does not actively attack people, her fishing methods are obviously effective, achieving the same results as actively attacking other people's territories. Therefore, her territory expansion speed is not very slow.

Of course, it goes without saying that it's number one in this region.

Many people on the local forums are asking who the number one lord in the region is—because Linlang was anonymous when the rankings were made.

Linlang kept herself anonymous on both the ranking and territory leaderboards because she didn't want to be disturbed.

Although anonymity costs a little money every day, she is willing to spend the money to avoid being disturbed.

Unlike some people who are eager to announce to the world that they are the number one lord in the region and ask others to come and pledge allegiance to them, she just wanted to avoid trouble. After all, she always felt it was too dangerous to expose her identity as a lord.

She didn't want to be ambushed by malicious people when she went out to fight monsters in the future, so it was better to remain anonymous—unless the system store could sell face-changing items so that no one would know who she was, she wouldn't dare to reveal her identity.

In fact, many lords are anonymous, and few show their real names, clearly because everyone is afraid of being killed.

The reason why some players are asking on the forum is that after players reach level 20, not only will the leaderboard be displayed, but they can also access the forum in the system, finally giving everyone a chance to communicate. You know, before the network was down, everyone couldn't communicate, which was too troublesome.

However, having just reached level 20, one can only post on the local forum and cannot post on the national or global forums. This is probably because the game controls the system, fearing that if one goes to the national forum, some national officials might try to establish their own territories through the forum, disrupting the balance of the game. Therefore, to post on the national or even global forums, one needs to be at a higher level.

If you wait a long time before you can access higher-level forums, even if the official team wants to influence something through the forums, it will be too late. After all, the territories in various places have developed. If the official team wants to build its own territory, it will likely be targeted by those ambitious large territories, and it may not be able to build it, thus affecting the balance of the game.

Since people could only post on their local forum, and no one knew about the territory rankings before, when a local territory ranking suddenly popped up and there was a lord on it, naturally people started asking questions.

Linlang read the inquiry and secretly rejoiced that she hadn't immediately upgraded Yong'an Territory to Level 5.

She just wanted to keep her territory at level four to see if she could catch fish, so even though she could have leveled up to level five, she didn't.

Now things are much better. It's easier for her to hide now, because there are no level 5 territories nearby. Once she upgrades to level 5, the leaderboard will show how many level 5, level 4, and level 3 territories she has. She'll immediately expose them, letting everyone know that the territory on the leaderboard is Yong'an Territory. Then, seeing how many territories Yong'an Territory has under its control, no one will dare to attack Yong'an Territory anymore. There won't be any fish left to fish in Yong'an Territory; people will have to rely on her subordinate territories. Even her subordinate territories won't be easy to fish in anymore—others will guess that the territories around Yong'an Territory belong to Yong'an Territory, so they won't attack. That means she can catch far fewer fish, which isn't a good thing, since she still needs to continue expanding her territory.

Seeing that no one could guess her name or even which territories she occupied, Linlang breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't exposed, she didn't need to rely on this method to attract people to join her, since the number of residents was still sufficient, at least for the time being.
