Chapter 318 - 146: What the Hell Are You?
At this very moment, in a certain corner of the Blue Star.
At the top floor of a sunlit office building, this place is decorated with a distinctly classical European style.
The fusion of ancient artistic aesthetics and modern architecture offers a unique charm.
If no one pointed it out, it would be hard for others to believe that this is the headquarters of the largest terrorist organization on the Blue Star—Salvation Resistance Army.
Or rather...
The headquarters of the Blue Star Branch.
A high-level supreme meeting is being held as scheduled, and the organization’s development seems to be on the rise, exuding a vibrant and competitive atmosphere.
Hmm...
Except for the Divine Continent.
Due to its unique management system and cultural foundation, the organization, although absolutely powerful and capable of dominating the world, has never fully extended its reach into the Divine Continent.
Development across the ocean, in the United States, for instance, has been quite successful.
The fifty states have almost become independent entities after the Dungeon System descended, and the upper echelons don’t really care much about the lives of the lower classes, making this a natural survival ground for *teach.
"It’s a pity... When the Divine Continent was nearly collapsing, our forces were too weak, and those allies weren’t united." An elder lamented, "Now the Divine Continent has revived, glowing with strength, its upper echelon is a solid entity, making it difficult for us to save the people from suffering."
"Divine Continent..."
Mentioning the awakened giant dragon from its slumber, everyone present sighed in regret.
Back then, they failed to dismember it completely; now trying to act again has become incredibly difficult.
It... is too stable.
"How is the previous plan to introduce external forces? What’s the response from the Abyss?" A middle-aged man with golden hair, like a lion, asked beside him, "After so long, there should be some response."
"Your Grace, the Abyss has given an ambiguous attitude; we contacted one hundred and fifty-eight Abyssal Dominators, but they all gave evasive responses, with one even explicitly rejecting us," the secretary holding a tablet responded.
The golden-haired middle-aged man snorted: "I knew these Abyss Demons were unreliable."
The previous elder shook his head: "After all, they are Abyss Demons, inherently inclined towards neutrality; chaos neutral is also neutral, and lawful evil is still evil. Without enough benefits, they won’t fight for us."
"Ignorant people, only know to accept and endure blindly..."
While everyone was lamenting the poor environment and the shortsightedness of the people, a young man rushed forward and whispered a few words at the ear of the elder in the Zhongshan suit.
The elder suddenly widened his eyes, revealing a trace of surprise and anger.
Such behavior immediately attracted the attention of other participants, who all directed their gaze towards him.
"I understand, you may leave." He irritably waved, looking sharply at the others, "The Life Lamp extinguished, I lost an A Tier disciple, killed by another player’s hands; she had the talent to advance to S Tier."
For Lu Wenwu, reaching S Tier is just a matter of time; he can even defeat S- Level opponents now.
But for others, getting there requires talent, capability, luck, courage, and resources, all indispensable.
S Tier is nearly the pinnacle the world can accommodate, and not easily achieved.
In the players’ common understanding, at least an Ultimate Skill level cultivation technique is needed to have the slightest chance of breaking through to S Tier.
Of course, it’s only a possibility.
Even players cultivating with Foundation level cultivation techniques have lingered at the Peak of A+, unable to advance for many years; advancement is truly not easy.
As for players cultivating Inquire Dao level techniques.
Who would broadcast that they are cultivating at such a level?
Spreading the word, what? Invite others to target them?
"Advance to S... is it Yu Sha? That little girl with the umbrella?"
The middle-aged man sitting beside the Zhongshan suit elder paused slightly, speaking in speculation.
He is Guo Xianglong, a long-standing friend, quite familiar with the elder’s disciples.
"Old Wen, didn’t you give her any force quit items or life-saving items?"
"Of course I did," Old Wen held back his anger, "She never had a chance to use them; she died directly at the opponent’s hands."
"What is the opponent’s strength?" The Grand Elder sitting at the head inquired.
Old Wen’s face grew darker, his voice like muffled thunder: "B+, Xiao Sa’s backpack resources were halved, and that Epic Weapon is gone."
Salvation Resistance Army is not as weak as Lu Wenwu imagines.
Since they claim to overthrow the Dungeon System’s jurisdiction and rule, naturally, they possess strength beyond common players’ knowledge.
Also, Salvation Resistance Army is very strict in recruitment; they don’t entertain those are slackers.
They have a unique method to recover personal backpack resources, equipped gear, storage in personal space, etc., after a member’s death.
The quantity of resources allows them to roughly determine the cause of death of that member; if man-made, they can roughly approximate the opponent’s level.
No matter how wide the gap in strength between the two sides, in a system rule-permitted PVP kill, they can acquire some resources.
This affords them the opportunity for guessing and recovery.
"What?"
"B+?"
"Hiss..."
"..."
As soon as Old Wen spoke, the entire meeting room burst into a chorus of astonishment.
Yu Sha is a very promising A- Level player, and most of the dungeons she participated in are above her current level of strength.
