Chapter 528: A New Era
Do you want to take this resurrection coin?
Su Xia rubbed her chin and thought for a moment.
In fact, the emergence of the resurrection coin means that the Zero Point Tavern has retreated, or at least retreated a small step.
As long as Su Xia agrees, this bloody battle that has lasted for several months can end with reconciliation between the two sides.
Su Xia doesn't need to pay any price himself, and he won't lose even a bit of reputation.
On the contrary, in the past few months, he has completely established his reputation.
His fame now far exceeds that of any legend in the Psychic Age.
In the eyes of many people outside, the four words "Masked Stranger" have become a legend among legends.
"Did the Zero Point Tavern really withdraw, or are they trying to set a trap for me?"
Su Xia knew very well that he had no connection with the first elder.
He searched his mind for a long time, thinking about all the people in this world, and he didn't think anyone could be the first elder.
Before he could make a decision, new news came out.
Another resurrection coin was given out!
"Another one?"
Su Xia was stunned for a moment and began to search for information about this resurrection coin.
The person who sent out this resurrection coin was the second-ranked elder, code-named "Blade", who was also a very mysterious figure.
There is not much information about this veteran on the Internet.
Of course, most of the original founders of the Zero Point Tavern are mysterious.
Therefore, many people have speculated before that the so-called first-generation elders may not exist at all, and the Zero Point Tavern was most likely supported by the Mechanical Clan in order to collect information and intelligence from humans.
But after several months of fighting, three elders died at the hands of Su Xia, and those speculations were refuted.
"One is Cocoon Breaker and the other is Blade. Two consecutive veterans have sent resurrection coins to the masked weirdo. The Zero Point Tavern probably really doesn't want to fight anymore." said the captain of the Fiery Suicide Squad.
"But it could also be a trap, a superficial reconciliation but a stab in the back. We have to be on guard against the masked weirdo." The leader of the Legendary Investigation Team spoke.
His remarks soon gained support from many people.
After all, the Midnight Tavern had acted too tough before, always saying "never compromise", and now suddenly giving out resurrection coins, it's hard not to be suspicious.
Maybe that's what they really intended.
Just wait for the masked man to relax, then stab him in the back!
However, before people could discuss the result, the third resurrection coin was given out!
"Another one?"
Everyone was shocked.
This resurrection coin was given by the third elder.
This third elder, codenamed "Green Fish", is also an extremely mysterious figure.
The appearance of three resurrection coins in succession directly disrupted people's thinking, so that everyone didn't know which direction to discuss.
Even if the Midnight Tavern was setting a trap, there was no need to make it so obvious, right?
The intervals between the appearance of these three resurrection coins are too short, giving people a feeling of impatience.
Just a few minutes later, the fourth resurrection coin appeared.
The one who sent out this resurrection coin was the fourth-ranked elder, code-named "Night Walker". He is less mysterious than the first three.
Some leaders of major forces know that this night-walking weirdo, whose real name is Zhuang Ren, is the master of Yi Yi, the man in the Coral City Tavern branch.
"Zhuang Ren?"
Su Xia's eyelids jumped when she saw the news.
“How could this guy be ranked fourth?”
He had met Zhuang Ren in Conch City and worked with him to rescue many people who were abducted to Conch City by the Left Eye Group.
Su Xia only knew that Zhuang Ren was also a first-generation elder, but he was not clear about his position among the elders.
"I saved his disciple's grandson, and he still owes me a favor." Su Xia whispered to himself, "If one resurrection coin can save a life, he should have taken it out long ago... It seems that there is something wrong inside the Zero Point Tavern."
If Su Xia guessed correctly, Zhuang Ren should have taken out the resurrection coin a long time ago.
However, the other elders of the Zero Point Tavern disagreed and wanted to take action against him by force.
After several months of killing, the other elders saw how terrifying Su Xia was. Three elders were killed by Su Xia himself, and two were seriously injured.
Therefore, the elders had to find a way out for themselves and brought up the matter of the resurrection coins again.
The appearance of the first elder might also be related to Zhuang Ren.
Of course, these are just Su Xia's guesses.
I can only ask Zhuang Ren about the details when the time comes.
While he was thinking, the fifth resurrection coin appeared.
The person who sent out this resurrection coin was ranked fifth among the first generation elders, codenamed "Polar White Bear". He was also extremely mysterious and no information about his past could be found.
At this point, the only five resurrection coins left in the Zero Point Tavern had all been given away.
That's their sincerity.
"It doesn't look like a trap." said the captain of the Fiery Suicide Squad.
"The Zero Point Tavern has really bowed its head this time. I don't know if the Masked Stranger will agree."
"He's been killing for several months, so he should be tired, right?"
" It's hard to say. What if he just likes killing?"
“…”
In the evening of that day, the northwest region welcomed the long-awaited sunshine.
It was a very peaceful day.
The masked man did not kill anyone, and there were no additional announcements at the Midnight Tavern. It was so quiet that people were a little uncomfortable with it.
The five resurrection coins sent out at midnight have arrived in the northwest region, in a city branch called "Dusk City".
At eight o'clock in the evening, the sun was setting.
The sunset in the northwest comes later than in the southwest.
Countless people's eyes are focused on this city.
"Will the Masked Man come?"
With the speed of the masked man, he can get here from any city in the northwest within a day.
If he doesn't come before twelve o'clock tonight, it means that he is unwilling to accept the solution of the Midnight Tavern and wants to continue killing.
Time passed slowly, and the sun gradually sank into the horizon, leaving only half of its body.
In the city, countless people are waiting.
For many members of the Midnight Tavern, time today seemed to pass slower than ever before. Every minute and every second was extremely torturous. They really didn't want to fight anymore and just hoped that the masked stranger would show up sooner.
Many people looked outside the city anxiously, their palms and backs sweating.
"Isn't he going to come?"
"But he didn't make a move today, which means he is also considering it."
"Wait a little longer, it's not even midnight yet, the sun hasn't even completely set yet!"
wait……
Keep waiting...
Deep anxiety was like a raging fire, burning the nerves of many tavern members.
"Here he comes!"
I don’t know who shouted.
In an instant, everyone's eyes turned to the outside of the city.
Outside the city, the light of half of the setting sun covered the earth. A masked figure walked slowly through the weeds in the light.
Seeing that figure, everyone was shocked.
"It's him, that's him!"
That masked figure has been appearing on the front pages of major news outlets recently, and it's impossible not to pay attention to it.
Getting closer!
Under the nervous gazes of countless people, the figure was getting closer and closer.
Is he here to negotiate or to kill?
After a moment, Su Xia's cold voice came out and gave everyone an answer.
"Is this how the people at the Midnight Tavern treat their guests?" His tone was indifferent, without any emotion, which was exactly what everyone imagined.
This is the masked man, a cold-blooded killer!
"Mask, my friend, how are you?" A laugh came from the city, and then a man in a wheelchair dressed in white slowly appeared.
"Charlatan?" Su Xia glanced at him with a cold look.
"It's me." The man in the wheelchair smiled .
"Is there no one else in the Midnight Tavern?" Su Xia asked him coldly.
"You've killed everyone else, so I'm the only one left. Please forgive me." The man in the wheelchair code-named "Shengun" said with a smile.
"Well, that's true."
Su Xia didn't take it seriously and continued forward without worrying about any traps.
With his current strength , he can force his way out even if there is a trap.
Accompanied by the man in the wheelchair and several pub members , Su Xia entered the city and walked towards the pub branch in the city at a moderate pace.
“Here they come!”
In the tavern branch, many people looked nervous and were worried about the man in the wheelchair, fearing that Su Xia would turn against him and kill him on the spot.
The man in the wheelchair is also very strong, but he is no match for Su Xia.
He looked calm and composed, and said, "Mask, a new war is about to begin. I don't think you will have much energy to focus on the Zero Point Tavern in the coming time. How about we end this?"
"Yes, sure."
Su Xia agreed readily.
Anyway, the initiative is in his hands. If he doesn't like the Zero Point Tavern, he can just attack again.
As for the "new war" mentioned by the man in the wheelchair, it naturally refers to the war between the four races: humans, Zerg, Undead, and machines.
In recent months, news about him and the Zero Point Tavern has appeared on the front pages of news in every city.
Many people have overlooked the movements of the mechanical race.
In fact, the mechanical race is the one that should be paid the most attention to.
During this period, there were movements of varying degrees in the mechanical bases in various places, and countless war machines sleeping underground were awakened.
As for the Undead, players held an offline meeting for the server-wide mission "Battle of Destiny", and even international players from the other two continents participated in the meeting online.
The game is not only about fighting and killing, but also about human relationships.
After communication, the players in the Central Continent agreed to some of the international players' requests, such as waiting for them to cross the sea and launch an attack together when the time is right.
At that time, who will enter the Silver City first will depend on their own abilities.
In the past few months, players from the other two continents have sneaked in through various means almost every day.
There are also some players who stayed in those two continents to deal with the mechanical tribes in those two continents.
As for the Zerg, after Su Xia's ugly clone conquered the entire southwest Zerg swarm, it did not stop, but crossed the mountains and continued its conquest, directly breaking through the entire southern subcontinent and not stopping until it reached the seaside.
Afterwards, the ugly clone followed the Zerg Queen to the other two continents and conquered the Zerg on those two continents.
The entire Zerg race is close to unification.
On the human side, after a tripartite meeting a few months ago, Lion City, Bear City, and Dragon City became an offensive and defensive alliance.
Not long after that, Xiangcheng, further south, could no longer sit still and took the initiative to apply to join the alliance, becoming the fourth member of the offensive and defensive alliance.
And just half a month ago, seven major cities held a gathering place conference.
After the conference, three other cities also joined the offensive and defensive alliance.
Even the proud Eagle City had to bow its head. After all, it alone would not be able to resist the mechanical army in the future war.
After this, the seven major cities began to gather members from small settlements in their respective areas in order to gather enough strength before the war began.
In general, a new era has arrived.
The dark cloud of war hangs over every city.
No one knows when this melee will break out, maybe tomorrow, maybe in the next second.
"Mask, please sit down."
"Um."
The two men came to the tavern branch and sat opposite each other, with the rest of the tavern members standing far away.
On the table in front of the two people, there was a metal disc.
On the plate were five coin-sized resurrection coins.
This coin has a gear pattern on the front and a fang on the back, and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the Zero Point Tavern.
Su Xia felt that wine barrels should be printed on both sides, one for beer and one for red wine, which would be appropriate.
"How come, for such an important negotiation, not a single elder came?" Su Xia asked indifferently.
"It will come." The man in the wheelchair smiled.
"I'm a little confused. Why would the mechanical race be afraid of the power of the Zero Point Tavern?" Su Xia picked up a resurrection coin at random and flicked his thumb, and the coin flew high into the sky.
The resurrection coin did not fall, but slowly rotated in the air.
The man in the wheelchair smiled bitterly. He knew that if he didn't answer properly, the spinning coin would most likely pierce his head.
Su Xia was not the only one who wanted to know the answer to this question.
In fact, many people have been discussing this issue recently.
The power displayed by the Zero Point Tavern is indeed strong, but it is not enough to compete with the mechanical race.
This organization does not have a formal army, only small-scale hunting teams, and cannot pose much threat to the mechanical race.
However, whenever there is a conflict between the Mechanical Clan and the Zero Point Tavern, the Mechanical Clan will restrain themselves and choose to negotiate instead of taking direct action.
This is very intriguing.
If it were any other organization, the Mechanical Clan wouldn't be so restrained.
The wheelchair man sighed, glanced at the spinning coin, and said, "Mask, I don't know much about this either. Maybe it has something to do with the First Elder."
"Oh? Any explanation?" Su Xia continued to ask.
“It is said that when the First Elder rebuilt the Zero Point Tavern, he negotiated with the Mechanical Clan and signed an agreement.” The man in the wheelchair told in detail what he knew.
"Just 'supposedly'?"
"Mask, Elder Zhuang Ren is coming soon, maybe he knows more inside information."
"Why did he come later than me?"
"Elder Zhuang returned to Coral City and asked the Coral City branch to lift the restrictions on members of the North Wind Story Club."
"oh……"
