Chapter 824.1: Before the Battle
After the "unknown liquid" incident, several leaders led by Yang Chen started discussing strategy.
Suddenly, there was the sound of footsteps, and a man in a black windbreaker went up to the seventh floor. The man seemed to have just woken up, and behind him was erha.
— Whose is it?
— Not ours.
— I don't recognize him.
Several leaders immediately spoke out.
— Friend, wait downstairs, we will discuss important things now, we will inform everyone when we come to a decision — " a frail-looking man in a neat suit and gold-rimmed glasses blocked Su Xiao's path.
— Su Xiao, who had just woken up recently, looked at him. He took advantage of his free time to get some sleep, knowing full well that he wasn't going to be able to get any sleep anytime soon.
— Friend, I said...
— Let him in, " Yang Chen said.
— The man in the suit immediately stepped aside.
Yang Chen was its leader.
Su Xiao walked to the seventh floor. In contrast to the previous dead silence, the seventh floor was now quite lively. Now it smelled of cigarettes, cigars, and wine.
Contractors of various appearances were standing or sitting all over the seventh floor. Some of them were silent, and some were making loud noises. The only thing they had in common was the smell of blood. Looking at each of them, one could immediately tell that they were desperate people who were willing to fight anyone at any given time.
— We meet again, " Yang Chen's sister said, and then continued to discuss the defense plan with the other leaders.
When Su Xiao stepped forward, Yang Chen himself was a little embarrassed.
— This is a detailed map of ancient ruins. I came here earlier than everyone else and drew it because I was bored, " Su Xiao said and handed Yang Chen an extremely accurate map, turned around and walked to the side.
Yang Chen glanced at Bubtney, who was following Su Xiao, and roughly understood why Su Xiao had come here so early.
— It will help us a lot. You seem to have some very unique skills.
Yang Chen was well aware of how valuable this map was.
— Given your abilities, would you like to discuss your plans with us? Yang Chen asked Su Xiao.
Su Xiao didn't want to participate in the leaders ' discussions. He was well aware of the limits of his commanding qualities. He had never led people and knew nothing about how to allocate people for defense.
He didn't want to get involved in matters he didn't understand. Compared to Su Xiao, all the people present on this floor were the most genuine experts in this field.
People who didn't understand anything in the right area, but tried to push their opinions through their own strength or authority, in Su Xiao's opinion, were stupid and short-sighted. When someone dealt with such people, they usually ended up trying to eliminate them first, so that they wouldn't interfere with the real experts.
Seeing that Su Xiao had no intention of participating in the discussions, Yang Chen nodded. Loners were usually strong, because the fact that a Lone Ranger was still alive was already a sign of their strength, but most loners often didn't understand anything about managing and distributing manpower.
However, right now, fortunately, they didn't have many decent singles, plus the ones that did were surprisingly quite calm. There were four singles in total, two boys and two girls, of course, there were actually more of them, but only four of all singles were eligible to go up to the seventh floor.
The two girls were obviously familiar with each other. The strange thing was that they didn't form a temporary group, but they still went together. Their names were Ada and the Zerg Queen. When they saw Su Xiao, they quickly turned their heads away from him.
— Why is this monster here? Ada asked as she stole a glance at Su Xiao.
— I don't know. Can you pretend you don't know me at all? The Zerg Queen replied in a weak voice. On planet T12K, Su Xiao had a profound effect on the two of them in the Zerg nest. In their hearts, Su Xiao was an extremely dangerous monster.
As for the other two singles, one of them was a Bear who had previously tasted the "unknown liquid". This guy was currently holding a cigar in his mouth and looked very gloomy.
And the fourth loner on the "worthy" list was Su Xiao. Now he was sitting next to a stone pillar, holding a tablet in his hand and carefully playing some game, clearly completely giving himself up to this process.
Seeing this, Yang Chen's eyebrows rose. Given Su Xiao's eerie aura, Yang Chen never expected to have such a simple and peaceful hobby.
For about an hour, several group leaders discussed the strategy.
The ancient ruins of Alterac were too big. With just over 700 contractors at their disposal it was only a pipe dream to completely protect the ancient ruins of Alterac.
Since they couldn't protect the entire ruins, the guild leaders finally agreed that they would have to reduce the defense line and concentrate the manpower they had to protect the palace and the surrounding areas.
The palace itself was accessible only through three stone bridges. These three stone bridges could be said to be the best places to set up defenses. Thanks to these bridges, they didn't have to worry about backstabbing and could immediately retreat back to the palace if anything happened.
