CHAPTER 74: CHAPTER 74: SERVED UP ON A SILVER PLATTER

The mountaintop was barren, with no one passing by.

Among the rugged stones, four guild leaders and Lu Ran sat facing each other, casually chatting and shooting the breeze in the sea wind.

"There’s not much time left before the national war, and for some reason, I’m quite looking forward to it," Yu Qingcang remarked contentedly.

His past worries had long disappeared.

Especially since the U.S.A had successfully cleared the normal difficulty of the Black Dragon Mountain, he almost assumed that Longxia would be suppressed by the U.S.A in the national war.

After all, there had been long-standing resentment between the two major countries.

The U.S.A currently monopolizes the Black Dragon Equipment, having gained the advantage, and is sure to target Longxia.

But at that time, Longxia was helpless!

Forcing continued assaults on the Black Dragon Mountain posed a huge challenge to high combat professionals, with many dying yet still unable to clear the Black Dragon Mountain, creating an extremely awkward situation.

Until Lu Ran appeared.

"Calculating the time, when the national war starts, Lu Ran’s skill coverage and casting distance will basically cover hundreds of kilometers without a problem," Liu Xinxin nodded affirmatively.

"Hundreds of kilometers of Undead Touch, hundreds of kilometers of Skeleton Storm, striking enemy generals from hundreds of kilometers away with Blood Spear, tsk tsk tsk... Truly worrying for other countries," Lei Tai exclaimed excitedly from the side.

Longxia had no chance of losing!

Moreover, it seemed that there was no need for other professionals from Longxia to participate; they just had to watch and avoid unnecessary casualties.

Lu Ran alone could dominate the national war and conquer the world!

"It’s just a pity that by then it won’t be possible to hide anymore, Lu Ran is bound to be exposed," Ye Hongyi expressed a slight concern.

"There’s no need to hide by then; the national war is just the beginning of Lu Ran’s global dominance," Liu Xinxin said with a smile.

And Lu Ran, being the protagonist.

Watched as several guild leaders spoke eloquently.

Their help to Lu Ran was indeed significant; recently, except for Yu Qingcang who had urgent matters to handle.

The other three guild leaders accompanied him day and night, providing good equipment and expensive consumables, throwing money without concern.

They were responsive to Lu Ran’s requests!

Lu Ran kept it in mind.

Honestly, Lu Ran didn’t really consider himself a fervent patriot, his level of patriotism was only average.

He even thought that after the global digitization, corruption still existed among the leaders of Longxia, but after interacting with several guild leaders, Lu Ran’s perception changed somewhat.

In a world where the weak are preyed upon, the nation is a whole!

Lu Ran had such capabilities with the nation as a support, walking with the country, this was indeed an opportunity.

"It’s just a pity, there’s never been a chance to test whether Lu Ran’s Skeleton Throne attributes can control Japan’s Shikigami. If he can control them, he’ll have plenty of fun during the national war," Liu Xinxin pondered aloud.

"There’s no choice, with the current cross-nation teleportation being blocked, plus Lu Ran’s performance in the Deathmatch Arena, it absolutely can’t be opened, we can only wait for the national war," Yu Qingcang said helplessly.

Although everyone felt it was a pity, there was no other way.

"The field BOSS is coming out soon, Lu Ran, don’t rush to throw the Blood Spear, I’ll check it out first," Liu Xinxin instructed Lu Ran.

She needed to assess how much the Blood Spear could damage the field BOSS.

If the BOSS came out and the Blood Spear didn’t manage to kill it, that would be a tragedy.

"Understood," Lu Ran nodded.

Elsewhere.

After coming ashore, Japan’s dozen or so people dared not proceed further inward, mostly communicating through glances rather than using their language, fearing immediate recognition.

Unlike other countries, in Longxia, anyone rashly speaking Japanese will definitely evoke considerable discontent from a crowd.

They were here to secretly investigate the Undead Mage, they couldn’t be exposed prematurely!

However, shortly after landing.

They stared at the teleportation array at the mountainside, where the field BOSS was, somewhat astonished.

"A field BOSS actually appeared here, let’s wait here, don’t go forward," one person whispered after looking around.

Due to the appearance of the field BOSS, too many professionals teleported from other main cities.

The crowd posed a great risk of exposure.

So they had to wait.

As for participating in hunting the field BOSS, they didn’t even think about it!

If they went in for the fight, the signature curse art and Shikigami manipulation of the Yin Yang Masters would be an absolute giveaway!

With so many people fighting the field BOSS, even getting the final hit was very slim.

If exposed, and if Nanami found out, it would be an irreversible disaster!

Moreover.

Now that they’ve entered Longxia’s territory, they can’t use cross-nation communications, shouting to the sky is in vain, calling to the earth is futile, dying here with no one knowing!

"Bad luck, too many professionals came to Kun Roc Island, we can only avoid for now, but it’s alright, once the field BOSS is dead, they’ll quickly leave," one person said.

But at that moment.

On the mountaintop.

Among the rugged stones, Liu Xinxin gazed over.

"Did you see that group of people by the coast?" Liu Xinxin suddenly asked.

Everyone looked up.

Because of the distance, they couldn’t see clearly, just a dozen people gathered there.

"Also here for the field BOSS?" Lu Ran asked casually.

"Doesn’t seem like it, the field BOSS is almost out, they can see the position clearly but show no interest in participating, I noticed them earlier, not only did they not go to fight the field BOSS, they also didn’t leave, nor hunt monsters, more like..." Liu Xinxin pondered.

"More like avoiding other professionals," Lei Tai spoke up this time.

Perhaps due to his position, Lei Tai was very sensitive to such odd behavior.

Upon this realization, the group was momentarily stunned.

Lei Tai pondered, "This area is near the Forbidden Sea, the National Defense Army hasn’t set up a frontline here, could it be professionals from other countries sneaking in through the Endless Sea?"

Upon hearing this.

Ye Hongyi raised her eyes and said, "The closest on the opposite side is Japan, are you saying... Japan’s professionals have infiltrated?"

Liu Xinxin said, "If it’s really Japanese professionals, calculate the time, they should have set off two or three days ago, at that time, Lu Ran was pressuring Nanami globally on the Endless Tower rankings, given Nanami’s position and status in Japan, it’s possible to send people overseas, considering cross-nation teleportation is blocked, Japan wants to infiltrate Longxia, they can only cross the Forbidden Sea!"

With this, the guild leaders’ expressions immediately became serious.

Instead, Liu Xinxin’s beautiful eyes lit up, "Once the field BOSS is killed, let’s test them, if they really are Yin Yang Masters, won’t Lu Ran have a testing opportunity?"

Upon hearing this, everyone was suddenly enlightened.

Indeed!

Just troubled with no Yin Yang Master to aid Lu Ran in testing the control ability of his Skeleton Throne attributes.

Didn’t this just come knocking on the door?

"During the testing, Lu Ran will be exposed, won’t the information get out?" Ye Hongyi worriedly asked.

"This is within Longxia’s territory, cross-nation communication is blocked, they can’t get the information out, if they’re really a bunch from Japan, they’ll just have to face their doom!" Lei Tai shouted angrily.

As a guild leader of the Battle Banner National Defense Army.

A bunch of Japanese infiltrating right under his nose was akin to flaunting their power!
