Going back in time. Two hours ago.

When Adelia returned to the graveyard injured, a few rangers in blue windbreakers followed behind her.

They stole a glance at the relatively ‘luxurious’ camp and silently envied it for a while before secretly returning.

Ten minutes later, a team of fifty people rushed over.

They were the five human lords who had attacked Adelia alongside the rangers who they had recruited.

The leader was a bald man with large tattooed arms. His face was fierce as he stared at the camp.

His pupils constricted, and the greed in his eyes was undisguised. He grinned and said, “Good fellow, your luck is quite good. You’ve already developed to this scale on the second day of arrival. Your speed is more than ten times faster than the eight of us.”

“Brother Qiang, this is troublesome. I think we better run. There’s no need to offend the strong just because of a Silver Treasure Chest.”

A pale-faced young man behind him groaned inwardly.

If he had known that the other party was so powerful, he would never have dared to ambush him with Brother Qiang.

“Run my a**! People have to die first. In this day and age, those who starve to death are cowards and those who are brave will get a full tummy! Little Qi, it’s not that I’m looking down on you. Bullying the weak and fearing the strong is your weakness. If you’re not ruthless, whether it’s on Earth or the other world, you’re useless.”

The tattooed man revealed a look of disdain. Then, he turned to look in the direction of Lin Ye’s territory. Especially when he saw the Level 5 bunker, the greed in his eyes intensified.

He licked his dry lips as his eyes flickered. “This b.a.s.t.a.r.d must have discovered some unknown loophole. As long as we can get him, we will definitely be able to gain some benefits. We might even be able to play around in this world.”

“Brothers, are you interested in fighting alongside me?”

His gaze swept across the other four.

Brother Qiang was disappointed that no one dared to look him in the eye. They seemed to be frightened by the powerful lord in front of them.

“Brother Qiang, it’s not that we don’t want to give you face, but looking at the scale, this person has at least 700 to 800 soldiers. For us, even if we add the Boss’s team, we’ll only be 90 people at most. We can’t even compare to a fraction of that. There’s no way to fight this battle.” Someone objected.

“Bulls.h.i.+t! A bunch of cowards! If you’re a coward, just admit it, stop making excuses!” The tattooed man cursed angrily.

His gaze was fixed on a refined student wearing gla.s.ses at the very edge.

He was young and looked like he was only 18 or 19 years old. If he was on Earth, he would be a university freshman.

“Gla.s.ses, you’re smart. Think of a solution for Brother Qiang. Once it’s done, I promise you that I’ll protect the girl in the camp. Even if my brother wants her, I’ll help you hold him back,” the tattooed man said with a burning gaze.

“You will keep your word?” The scholar looked up. The lenses reflected a different color in the setting sun.

“People call me Liu Huaqiang in this world. My word definitely counts.” The tattooed man patted his chest and guaranteed.

The scholar mused. After a moment, he looked up slowly. “It’s not like there’s no way…”

“Quick, tell me, you are making me anxious.” The tattooed man was overjoyed and urged.

“On the surface, we have no hope of defeating the other party. The only chance we can take is with the zombies.”

The student stood up and looked to the north. “We’ve sent people to investigate that area. The number of zombies there is definitely the largest in the surrounding area. There are probably several Haunted Houses there, and they are considered a sort of territory for zombies. I suspect that the zombie wave seven days later will most likely come from there.”

“You mean, you want to make use of the zombies to deal with this guy?” The tattooed man raised his brows and hesitated.

They had done something similar before with a small number of zombies.

For example, using the Venom Zombie to plot against Adelia.

But even he had lingering fears about the zombie wave in the north.

Seemingly sensing the man’s fear, the student continued, “If you don’t want to take risks, how will you gain anything? Only by using your life can you close the gap between us and the man on the other side. I have a plan here. Everyone, listen to it first. If you think it’s feasible, we can give it a try.”

“Tell us about it first,” Little Qi said solemnly.

Immediately, the five of them gathered together. The student said the plans he had, making everyone’s blood boil with excitement as they listened on.

As long as they followed the student’s instructions, there was a high chance of success.

“Indeed, in terms of schemes, only scholars like you can come up with such despicable tricks.” The tattooed man laughed and looked at the scholar with an even more admiring gaze. “Gla.s.ses, follow me in the future. As long as I have food to eat, I will definitely not let my brothers starve.”

“Sure,” the scholar replied with a fake smile.

“Then, I’ll leave this matter to you?” The tattooed man probed.

After all, going to the north to attract the aggression of the zombies was a life-threatening mission. The other four were cunning. They would not agree even if they were beaten to death.

“Sure. Everyone, wait for my news. When the zombie wave comes, take the opportunity to kill the lord and occupy his territory. As for those rangers and soldiers, don’t worry about them. Their lord only has a boss-subordinate relations.h.i.+p with them. If he is dead, what can they do to us?”

“I’ll wish for you guys’ success. I’m going.”

With that, the scholar adjusted his gla.s.ses, turned around, and led his eight rangers and two level 1 attributeless soldiers into the forest.

Half an hour later, in a huge graveyard four kilometers away.

Since they were in a party mode, their basic graveyard was much larger than the individual mode’s.

The scholar ran all the way back with his subordinates, panting from exhaustion.

“The Fifth Lord is back!”

Along the way, native workers and rangers guarding the territory greeted them warmly.

“Boss, come out quickly. It’s a joyous occasion.” The scholar nodded his head and shouted loudly with a face full of smiles.

Moments later, two figures walked out of the camp.

It was a man and a woman. The man was not tall and was in his forties.

He was bald and had large tattooed arms, looking similar to Brother Qiang.

Comparatively, the woman was young and pretty, but there were a few palm prints on her face, as if she had been slapped.

A trace of coldness flashed across the scholar’s eyes, but he hid it well.

“Gla.s.ses, what’s the good news? Where’s Qiangzi and the rest?” The bald boss didn’t suspect anything and asked happily.

“Today, we caught a big fish with a blue-tier weapon. We used a little trick and killed him. Brother Qiang brought some people to occupy that guy’s territory. You know me. My combat power is trash. I pant just from running. Brother Qiang asked me to bring some treasure back to show our respect to you.”

As he spoke, the scholar smiled and took out a blue tier dagger from his Civilization Archive. He handed it to the bald boss.

“Aish, not bad. This is the first blue tier weapon of this camp.”

The bald man was overjoyed. He took the dagger and examined it, his eyes full of smiles.

However, in the next moment, a cold glint flashed across his eyes and his vision was instantly dyed red.
