I am a reincarnation player.

This order could not be questioned. If it were before Yuki was promoted to epic, they would only choose to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers, but now it is different. There is a tiger next to them, a tiger in sheep's clothing.

"Remaining players 55, 50, 47..."

Illya's clear voice kept counting. Before the battle, there were 57 remaining players. About 33 of them came to pick up lanterns, and including the Nameless King, there were 34 in total. Many of them died in just half an hour.

Of course, this is not the case for all players. Some are over a thousand kilometers away and cannot receive the news, but the terrifying battlefield movement has also attracted quite a few.

“How many retail players who heard the news have the Night Watch discovered?”

"About four camps, 10 people."

Well, 57 minus 34, minus 10, there are still 13 players who haven’t shown up, and there must be some who don’t want to join in the fun.

"What about the information from the Inquisition? How many people are there in the Night Tide? What's going on now?"

"There are four bright lights in total, one of which is extremely bright. They are chasing." Illya continued. The Night Watchman's radio can avoid prompt 1, so the information is conveyed quickly.

"Why is there one missing?" Yuki raised his eyebrows. The night watchman's previous report mentioned that there were a total of 6 abnormal lights in the Night Tide. Excluding the King of the Night, there should be 5 left.

This is absolutely correct, because without light you will be dragged into darkness, which is both an advantage and a disadvantage.

"Klein said a light went out a few hours ago. It looked like there was a battle going on?"

Oh, there is a high probability that they are killing each other, which means that there are still 4 teams of players in Tide, and some teams definitely have more than one person.

A lot of numbers have to be deducted from the 13 players who did not show up. There is also another key clue, that is, according to the team rating, each camp or each team can only have one epic player at most.

The five factions united before the dungeon in Valhalla and almost reached the highest score. Before upgrading themselves, there were a total of 3 monsters at level IV and 5 monsters at level III.

"So among the players who haven't shown up, there is at most one epic level I. Regardless of whether it's a subjugation team or not, if I eliminate the nameless king, I can gain an advantage in total combat power." Yuki rubbed his chin. This was the real reveal of the truth.

Either don't take action, or take action with all your strength to completely reverse the balance of power.

"Wait, how can you be sure that there is another epic player in the night?" Emiya was a little confused.

"Because of the light, the powerful soul lamp cannot be stored in the storage space. The Nameless King only has a torch. Let me ask you, would you give such a precious thing to someone weaker than yourself?"

The red-clothed hero suddenly stopped talking. It has always been the case that only the weak have to run errands.

"Full speed ahead, ready to join the battlefield."

"Uh, these lightning arcs have a detection function, we will be discovered." Manas reminded. She had used her manas consciousness to see the future of being discovered, but she could not see the response of the Nameless King.

"Let him see, Mana. Have you forgotten what I said before?" Yuki adjusted his tricorn hat and toyed with his musket. "I'm a special night watchman, and plot characters can't improve quickly, let alone achieve epic transformations. So there's nothing to fear from him."

Yuki didn't have 'I am epic' written on his forehead. Even after the qualitative change, his control over energy became more precise. He controlled every bit of overflowing energy. Without a face-to-face fight, it was difficult to judge even with professional detection tools.

The players in the cabin looked at each other, and all the puzzles were revealed at the same time.

Why did the Night's Watch shrink and isolate the players on the outside? Why did they let the players inside the tide take advantage of the situation? Why did they use the strength of Monster IV to fight Asura?

Surprise, here it is.

......

Players from Night's Watch and Valhalla are here?

As Mana expected, when the airship flew into the range of the lightning arc, the Nameless King reacted immediately.

This is much stronger than Del Dole's mental force field. He controls an area of ​​hundreds of kilometers in radius. He can not only observe, but also use it for attack.

A ball of lightning burst out in the distance, and the electric arcs gathered, directly blowing up the airship, forcing the people inside to rush out.

Five players, one Night Watchman, and Monster III or higher. Want to get a bargain?

Many players escaped from the Battle of Southern Plains, and the information was naturally leaked. Five players, Emiya, Mana, Illya, Sekiro, and Homura Akemi, were quite famous, and their information was collected in the "Hundred Eyes Complete Book".

Neither weak nor strong, the Nameless King wrapped himself in twelve lightning pillars to shatter those densely packed skills, while concentrating his energy and carefully observing the Night Watchman.

He held the Soul Fire Gun, unfolded the Soul Force Field, and advanced under the cover of several players. His appearance did not reveal anything, but he did not show any extraordinary power beyond his identity as a Night Watchman.

Just as Bishop Laziness had said before, this Night Watchman had no reason to hold back. Judging from the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle, this person's strength surpassed that of ordinary Monster IV players.

"He is indeed stronger than the previous one, so he is called the Special Night Watchman?"

The Nameless King tilted his head slightly. He personally dealt with a Level 1 Night's Watchman who came to explore the tides. This man was also very stubborn. After being defeated in the fight, he immediately blew himself up. If he had known that there were any special Night's Watchmen at that time, he would have tried every means to preserve his soul and read his memory.

There is only one suspicious point here, that is, the captured night watchmen did not know that they had a special night watchman. Of course, there is a reasonable explanation for this, that is, their level is too low and they do not have the authority to know this secret.

If you want to find out the truth thoroughly, you have to read the memories of the Level 1 Night Watchmen. However, there are only five such high-level people, and they all hide at night and never come out. If you arrest them by force, it will go against the plan of "being a bystander and focusing on the crusade."

Night City is the core of the safe zone. The arrival of the Nameless King will cause a chain reaction. Epic players are mobile treasures, and the soul materials exploded are priceless.

He is fighting a bloody battle with the Night's Watch, and the remaining players can only watch and see if there is any bargain to be found. Who will be the winner then?

Yuki guessed correctly that the Nameless King was indeed a conqueror, and the whole plan was very sound. He wanted to use the darkness to force out most of the players who had received the hunting mission, and then come to the end to finish it off and crack the darkness at the same time.

"The last powerful soul lamp is about to be obtained, and it's time to finish it." The Nameless King raised his sword and found that this was a good opportunity.

Most of the remaining jungle players are here, and the players on the Night's Watch side have also joined the game. The original plan was to let the two sides either die together, or open the lighthouse and then they would come out to clean up the mess. Now is a rare opportunity, so they can speed up the progress.

'That strange woman' is annihilating the remaining players in the tide and collecting two more powerful soul lamps. Once I simultaneously resolve this battlefield, there will be no resistance in the entire dungeon. Although it will take some effort, I will be able to return as soon as possible.

Every epic player is very busy and rules a faction, so they rarely carry out missions.

At the current rate of progress, it would take at least ten days for the tide to cover the continent and for all players in the safe zone to be wiped out. This was too slow, as ten days was enough to complete a short and intense faction war.

After she dealt with Tide, and I dealt with this place, the remaining players posed no threat at all, and the Night's Watch were even less powerful than ants. Oh, and there's one more thing.

The Nameless King saw that Yuki was approaching within a hundred miles. Since he was a special night watchman, he must know where the "lighthouse" was. He would not have to slaughter millions of lives and go to find those cowards who were hiding.

The king will only be kind to the brave. It is fair to exchange this courage for the lives of millions of ants.

The lightning suddenly became dazzling, like a brilliant sun appearing in the sky. The players closed their eyes and overloaded their defensive skills. Then—

He disappeared without a trace. This strange scene made the remaining twenty players stunned, but not very happy.

That's right, ants can kill elephants, not to mention there are dozens of "monsters" here, but everyone is very tired and gradually got really angry.

Companions from every camp died at the hands of the Nameless King, and the remaining ones were also heavily depleted, but no one dared to pick up the powerful soul lamps remaining on the ground.

This isn't about fighting side by side to forge friendship, but rather a cruel truth:

Epic players cannot eat so many monsters, but monsters cannot keep epic players either, so they have complete control over the initiative of attack.

The fertile central plains turned into the surface of the moon, dotted with craters of varying sizes, cut canyons and scattered energy particles. Several volcanoes stood tall, spewing out hot magma.

There is not a single weed or insect here. The battle seems to have moved the plain to another world. Perhaps there will be no signs of life here for a hundred years.

With the powerful soul lamp as the center, players are scattered within a radius of more than ten kilometers, and the remains of summoned creatures or dismantled machines are everywhere.

Countless observation skills are concentrated on the soul lamp. Anyone who dares to pick it up now will be targeted by everyone.

"Everyone be careful, that bastard definitely isn't gone."

"No one is allowed to grab the lamp. The Nameless King must be watching, waiting for us to fight among ourselves."

Roars came one after another, and flying machines shuttled back and forth. No one was a fool. The short and fierce battle caused considerable losses to the Nameless King, but it was far from enough to force him to leave.

Every player is trying to recover, waiting for the battle to resume.

"It's incomprehensible, incomprehensible, really incomprehensible!"

Bishop Laziness was standing on a meteorite that had been split in two. He had just smelled something wrong and did not join the siege.

Dust filled with death energy filled the air, making the already gloomy sky even darker, but highlighting the brightness of the powerful soul lamp.

He looked around, and the madness on his face suddenly turned calm.

"It's inexplicable, but it makes sense."

Everyone came for the game's airdrop, and a big battle was supposed to happen, because the airdrop itself is a setting in the reincarnation game that encourages cannibalism.

If the Nameless King wants it, he has to take it away, because he is the most powerful and should be 'taken care of' by all players.

But I always feel like something is wrong.

The bishop gnawed his fingers until his nails were all bitten off. The pain made his brain tremble, and the trembling brain made his thinking clearer.

I observed that at least eight players died and twelve were seriously injured. Well, minus the error, there are still more than a dozen who can still fight. The Nameless King also suffered heavy losses. At least three skills hit him.

As a bystander, the bishop has the clearest view of the battlefield.

The Nameless King didn't want to continue the head-on confrontation, so he chose to retreat in order to advance? Humph, even an idiot wouldn't fall for such an obvious conspiracy.

The two sides were stuck in this stalemate. The remaining players could not take the initiative to attack, and the Nameless King could not sit idly by and watch the players recover their combat effectiveness. This soul lamp seemed very important to him and he would never give it up. Whoever touched it would be equivalent to detonating the battlefield.

But stalemate is not a solution. Could it be that the Nameless King is waiting for reinforcements?

His heart stopped for a moment, but fortunately the bishop came to his senses immediately. The Nameless King had not left. Not to mention that there was no communication between the inside and outside of Tide, it was impossible for an epic player to go against the prompt. Even if there were companions, it would be impossible for them to get the news now.

"Hey, this stalemate is also a good opportunity for me." An idea suddenly lit up in his eyes. Didn't he want to be the boss? Now the jungle players had to unite under the threat of the Nameless King.

"Focus on me. A stalemate is not going to work. Don't forget there are other players. Anyone trying to grab the light now will detonate the explosive barrel!"

The roar penetrated the gray dust and completely closed the mouth of the Lazy Bishop, which had just opened. He gritted his teeth and drew blood.

The flower sword took the lead and tried to control the right to speak. It would be fine for others, but the bishop could not tolerate this person's laziness.

It was this lazy idiot who started the fight and ruined his own plan. This war should never have happened.

Someone stepped forward and immediately received a response from the players. The reason why it was difficult to fight against the Nameless King just now was because they were all scattered and had no coordination, and many of their skills hit their own people.

Many factions no longer care about the powerful soul lamp. Some want to retreat calmly, unite and find a solution, while others take the opportunity to escape, maybe even get something for nothing.

No matter how you think about it, the stalemate will definitely not work. The players are too scattered, and there is energy mist all around, and there is no sense of security at all.

The Lazy Bishop naturally did not respond. He still stood on the half meteorite, staring blankly at the bright lights and golden arcs in the distance.

It is estimated that the overflowing energy particles will take several years to dissipate. This plain will become a life-restricted zone. Anyone with a physical fitness below level 5 will die if they step in. All detection capabilities are concentrated on the lights. The most feared thing now is someone taking advantage of the situation.

This battle will surely shock the continent and attract everyone's attention. Hidden players will also arrive, and who knows, someone might dare to steal.

Wait, other players?

The bishop's pupils shrank sharply and goose bumps appeared all over his body. This scene seemed familiar.

"Focus on me, Valhalla and the Night's Watch are coming!"

This roar startled every player suddenly. It's not that they didn't realize it, but facing an epic player, who has the ability to be distracted?

The detection skills concentrated on the powerful soul lamp suddenly disappeared a lot. The scanner penetrated the thick fog, forcibly resisting the energy attenuation, covering the battlefield for dozens of kilometers, and the result was—

"They come and hide in the fog!"

An electronic synthesized sound rang out, and the T800, with its outer skin torn, revealed its steel-like body. The electronic scan was very accurate, and several energy sources were rapidly crossing the periphery of the battlefield.

Swift, decisive, and clear, this is the battle plan that has been laid out long ago:

Use powerful soul lamps to attract everyone's attention, use the players' own power to cover the battlefield, and only then will the big net be thrown out.

Fortunately, we still have strength left, and the Nameless King is watching from the side. Maybe we can use them to break the standoff and force our way out.

Logic was operating, and the super brain calculated the most reasonable plan. Since the stalemate was broken and since all three parties wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife, it would be better to evacuate quickly and leave the battlefield to these two parties.

The computing power has reached its limit. At this moment, the ferocious-looking T800 saw the man in the conical hat walking out, and projected holographic images in his eyes, trying to simulate dozens of possibilities for the other party to see. However, the next moment.

Swah——

The man flashed through the light curtain so suddenly and so fast that even the computer couldn't react.

The black blade slashed into the brain of the intelligent machine. Like a black shadow, it passed directly through the skull made of super alloy and cut the frantically calculating CPU into two halves.

The scarlet electronic light flickered a few times, as if questioning the other party's reason, but without uttering a single word, it went out completely.

"I'm sorry, you're just a supporting role in this drama." The man adjusted his hat, revealing a rough face without a trace of extraordinary energy leaking out. This was a game, a hunting game he specially arranged, and the next participant was a thousand meters away and knew nothing about the situation here.

Kyoraku Shunsui drew his sword, looked at the thick fog filled with energy particles, and smiled bitterly.

"Of course, I'm also a supporting role."

Chapter 16: Storm King vs. Soul King

The best battlefield.

Yuki stood quietly in the gray fog. A fool would launch a war regardless of the consequences, a wise man would find ways to create geographical advantages, and a real bastard would let the enemy create a cage for themselves without having to do anything himself.

The battle just now was too intense. There were no less than ten types of energy particles in the air. They would take years to dissipate, so there was no need for Yuki to take out the Heart of the Ice and Snow Goddess to interfere.

The response of the Nameless King was within his expectations, just like Tiger Vanguard would work hard to learn math, physics and chemistry. Epic players can be arrogant, but they will never be stupid.

After forcing a breakthrough and alerting the enemy, the Nameless King immediately retreated, leaving the battlefield to both sides and hiding aside to watch the show.

The king is very cautious. Even in such a fierce battle, he will keep an eye on his surroundings and be fully prepared.

If the newcomer is too reckless, he will kill them with a borrowed knife, and the remaining players will be difficult to deal with, so he will come out and take advantage when both sides are hurt.
