Chapter 630: Splitting up the Course of Actions

On the other side, beside a small river.

Since they were going to be meeting aliens, being a country of etiquette, they naturally had to prepare tea, nuts, sweets, and so. However, they weren’t sure if there was tea in this virtual world. Even if there was, they couldn’t find it at such short notice. After all, it was not like that was something growing everywhere.

Therefore, Tang Muxin, Li Nianwei, and the nine lackeys found sound tools to get water from the river. Then, they wandered around in the forest, trying to find some nuts and such.

“Li Yang, you go search on the Eastside.” Tang Muxin directed. “Liu Yiliang, you go to the Northeast side and take a look. Huahua, you go to the North. Remember not to go too far, or it will be troublesome if you get lost!”

Li Yang nodded and said, “Don’t relax, Miss Xinxin, we will be careful!”

The other female lackeys went with Ling Xiaoyi to find tools to hold water and also try to make some wooden cups and such.

“Miss Xinxin, you really have the mannerism of being a lady of the house now.” Li Nianwei smiled and hugged her shoulder. “You are indeed the Young Master’s fiancée.”

“Ah, Sister Nianwei, you are making fun of me.” Tang Muxin’s face blushed and softly said, “I just don’t wish that rascal Dali to be embarrassed outside, that’s all. We can’t allow him to be embarrassed in front of some aliens, right?”

“Hehe, since when has the Young Master ever embarrassed himself?” Li Nianwei shook her head. “I reckon only other people would embarrass themselves in front of him.”

“That’s true, this rascal Dali is actually quite formidable…”

…

On top of a small hill.

Lin Chuyin, Lucifer, and Zhang Yi, three members of the Holy Grail, stood here, looking for usable tools.

Towards these three people with an intelligence quotient of more than 180, it would definitely be a waste if they didn’t build a research laboratory or something after entering this world. But the problem was that the tools were really hard to find.

Of course, as long as there was a will, there would be a way. After all, even if they couldn’t find tools, that didn’t mean they couldn’t make them. Or rather, that didn’t mean that they couldn’t find something else to replace the tools.

“Miss Chuyin, have you discovered what’s different about this place?” Lucifer asked, “I realized that this place seems to be different from the real one. The animals here are different, and I keep feeling that there is something strange in the air. However, I can’t tell what it is…”

“Oh.” Lin Chuyin thought for a while and then said, “Maybe it’s because this world isn’t a normal technological world.”

“Hm? Not a technological world?” Lucifer thought for a while. He was after all a guy with an IQ of more than 180 and quickly came around. He smiled and said, “When Young Master Dali met Deca, Deca used a sword and not a gun, right? With their technological level, it isn’t possible that they don’t have any powerful far-range weapon. Also, he mentioned something like dragons and such. In that case, that means that this world is a world of swords and magic?”

“That’s possible.” Zhang Yi exercised her elbow and walked to a small tree at the side. She suddenly exerted force and instantly uprooted the tree. “My strength is still here, which means that I belong to a close combat profession?”

“Chuyin and I can’t compare to your body strength.” Lucifer smiled and asked Lin Chuyin, “Why don’t we research on how to use magic here?”

“Oh, okay.” Lin Chuyin nodded and said, “If we really can use magic, we should ask Dali to try too.”

…

About two kilometers from where Dali and his people were, space suddenly got distorted. Then, Deca and a large group of people were teleported here.

Speaking of which, this was an ability Deca obtained through adventuring in this world. Using more professional words, it was called mass teleportation. Using a more amusing way of describing it, it was called gathering a gang to come and make a bluff…

“Deca, remember, the main objective is to deter them with our might.” Graham meticulously instructed him. “This Hong Dali probably brought others with him into this world this time, you have to check them out first thing. If there isn’t any problem, we shall go according to the plan. Remember to keep your distance from them and not get into a close relationship with them. If not, you might not be willing to make a move on them in the future.”

“I know, Father.” Deca nodded and said towards the two women, “Let’s go.”

“To be honest, this time’s mission is really boring.” Shelley and Susan pouted and said, “We actually have to go seduce a bumpkin. Even if he has the ability to control animals, doesn’t he still have to work for us next time? With his identity, it isn’t possible for him to become a core member of our group, at most just better than being a slave. Once I think about having to seduce such a guy, I feel uncomfortable all over.”

“I know.” Deca didn’t have any other options too. “For our business, I can only ask the two of you to sacrifice yourselves for a bit.”

“We will try.” Shelley answered, “Consider it a contribution to the crew.”

After Deca and the women left, Graham directed the ten plus soldiers who came with him. “The few of you, go wander around in the forest and see if you can find anything valuable. If you find any attribute stones, report to me immediately! Also, be careful about your safety. If you die, you will have to return to our home planet. It would be troublesome for Deca to go and fetch you guys.”

“Understood!” The soldiers saluted and instantly moved out.

“As for the rest.” Graham lastly instructed. “We still have eleven people here, all of you are elites with stats of more than 300 points. I believe it’s enough to surprise Hong Dali and his people. Therefore, we shall find a spacious place and make preparations. After Deca sends back the news, we shall start the competition. After Hong Dali comes, let’s show them the most astonishing performance they have ever seen!”

Everyone replied, “Roger that!”

…

In the forest.

The soldiers who came with Deca were softly discussing. With a face full of disdain, one of them said, “Isn’t it just some low civilization aboriginals, why do we have to make such a competition. If it was up to me, since we already have the locations of their planet, we should just go over and blow up some of their cities. Then, naturally, they would submit to us. Why is there a need to go to so much trouble.”

It must be said that his words actually made quite a bit of sense, quite a few of the others nodded in agreement.

Then, another soldier rebuked. “What do you know, this is called deterrence force, understand? Think about it, with our current technology level, it isn’t a problem to blow up their cities, but what about after that? That would definitely result in them retaliating with all they have. You can’t expect us to just hide in the ships and blow up the entire planet, right? If that’s the case, what’s the purpose of us coming here? But if we leave the ship to battle with them on the planet, there’s only so little of us, isn’t it? There’s only about 20,000 of us, each death would mean one less. But if we use technology and combat might to deter them, things would be different. As long as they are afraid of us, we would be able to obtain whatever we want from the planet. Honestly speaking, how much is a slave worth? The really valuable resources are what the other planets don’t have! Other things aside, if there are some beautiful animals or such, if we sell them on the black market, that would be worth much more than slaves!”

“That’s true.” The previous person thought for a while and then nodded and said, “Carefully thinking about it, that’s indeed the case. It would be better if there isn’t a need to fight. If there’s really something precious in this world, it would be much more reliable carrying those onto our ships than loading our ships with a bunch of slaves.”

“Isn’t that so.” The other person smiled and said, “If we capture a large bunch of slaves, we still have to feed them, right? If it’s resources, it would be much better. If we can discover Ideon ores or Immium ores and such, we will be rich!”

“Yes yes, what you say makes sense!” The previous person agreed and said, “You are more thoughtful than me.” Saying so, he continued to ask, “Do you think we can really find any precious materials wandering around like this?”

“That’s hard to say.” Another person added, “Those things are all very hot stuff in the large cities in the Virtual Universe. If it was virtual worlds like the one corresponding to our Galleon Planet, the resources on it were already exploited. All the valuable mines are being controlled by large families. This world is still a virgin world, there might really be a lot of good materials lying around. Also, the exchange rate of the currency in the virtual world and the real world is one to one. If we can discover a mine or something, that would be fabulous!”

“Yes, yes.” Everyone all agreed with what he said. “That’s right, let’s hurry up and go search around!”

At this moment, the first person reminded. “Don’t be careless, I heard that there are Planet-level beasts in this world. If we are unlucky, not to mention a Planet-level beast, just meeting City-level beasts would not be something we can handle. Once we die here, we will have to return to our home planet’s revive area. This isn’t a joke.”

“Yes, yes.” Everyone agreed again. “That’s true, we must be careful!”

…

“How long more is it?” Walking in the forest, Shelley asked. “It’s quite tiring walking like this.”

Susan nodded in agreement and said, “That’s right. I am not nagging, but the Captain is really too careful. Why do we have to be teleported so far away? The weather is quite hot.”

“Father often says that we must be as careful as we can in the Universe. If not, it would be easy for us to meet trouble someday.” Deca helplessly said, “There’s nothing wrong in being careful. My father was able to become the owner of such a large fleet from just a small businessman, all because of being careful. Don’t fret, we will be reaching shortly.”

“Alright, just take it that what you say is right.” Susan grinned and pinched Deca’s waist. “Speaking of which, you don’t have a girlfriend yet, right? What do you think of me?”

“You?” Deca helplessly shook his head. “Forget it, I still wish to live for another two years.”

“Chey, look at how timid you are.” Susan scolding laughed and said, “You deserve to be single for your whole life.”
