The Hundred Flowers Valley was very inconspicuous.

Besides, the interference of the enemy's power of providence had slightly changed the geological environment when the battlefield was established.

Generally speaking, even though there were other players who were as familiar with the original novel as Elder Meng was, it wouldn't have been easy for them to find Hundred Flowers Valley.

After all, the settlements that were qualified to enter this battlefield had all won the Ten-Species Compet.i.tions. The players from those settlements were bound to have special abilities…

“Master Ji, they said that they needed to talk to Swordsman Condor for something urgent, so we took them here.”

s.h.i.+ the Fourth, who was sitting on a male elephant that was carrying a lot of resources, spoke to Ji Ye, who had just walked out of the mist, with a hollow smile on his face.

s.h.i.+ the Third, or the Gold Armored Lion King, had been treating his wounds in the Hundred Flowers Valley, and all the supplies in the Hundred Flowers Valley were delivered by the Manor of Beasts.

Obviously, those players had found the deliverers!

“Master Ji, it's an honor to meet you!”

Except for s.h.i.+ the Fourth who was sitting on the elephant, the others were dressed the same way. They were all covered in thick black robes.

The tall man standing at the center, who was clearly their leader, spoke to Ji Ye, revealing a pair of gray eyes.

“Sorry, but the Hundred Flowers Valley doesn't welcome guests!”

Standing at the entrance of the Hundred Flowers Valley where a fog was forming, Ji Ye said casually.

“Why are you so unfriendly, Master Ji? We're all from the southwest, and we all admire the heroes such as Swordsman Condor, Reverend Yideng, and others. We only want a meeting with them!

“Besides, you don't have the right to make a decision for them, do you?”

The tall man in black said solemnly and aggressively.

“The southwest?

“Isn't the Twin Dragon Mount fort in the north?”

s.h.i.+ the Fourth, who was sitting on the elephant, was utterly confused.

Ji Ye, however, knew exactly what those people meant.

As he expected, the strangers were here for the projections of the heroes.

It was indeed slightly immortal that the Twin Dragon Mount fort monopolized the projections of those heroes.

After all, to some extent, those heroes on this Battlefield of Providence belonged to all of Earth civilizations and were meant to improve the strength of the whole team!

However, the Twin Dragon Mount fort was able to monopolize them because it had completed the Ten-Species Compet.i.tion quest sooner. That should be part of their reward. If the hero projections became freely accessible to all the other settlements, what if someone had malicious plans and caused problems?

Furthermore, Ji Ye was 100% sure that other settlements were approaching Yang Guo, Zhou Botong, and the others not just to ask for their guidance on martial arts.

More likely, they would try to obtain the keepsakes of those heroes!

If they could summon the heroes to their settlements, they could use the heroes' guidance at any moment.

Ji Ye didn't think that he was a selfish man, but he definitely didn't consider himself an altruistic man either.

Besides… Ji Ye peeped at s.h.i.+ the Fourth.

“Leave!”

Then, he casually spoke to the black riders.

“What the h.e.l.l. Aren't you a sn.o.b?

“You think you can just tell us to walk away? Have you no respect for the Castle of the Walking Dead at all?”

The short man in the black robe, infuriated by Ji Ye's countenance and tone, shouted in a high-pitched tone.

“For the sake that we're all from Chidragon, I won't punish you for that.

“Leave this place in one minute, or let's see which of us is stronger!”

Ji Ye remained as expressionless and nonchalant as before.

“S*it!

“He's having a good time being a sn.o.b. Let's find out who is stronger right now!”

The short man in the black robe was filled with anger.

Before the leading tall black-robed man said anything, a staff that had a black ball on the top appeared below the black robe and was pointed at Ji Ye.

Whoos.h.!.+

A narrow and straight stream of black energy darted out and hit Ji Ye's arm precisely.

“Is it magic?”

Ji Ye raised his arm, only to see a dark hole where the black energy hit him. Certain black air that emitted strange waves was spreading in his body too!

Because of the cultural coalesce after the establishment of the Confederate government, settlements like Ren Hamlet, with the setting of the Republic China, had appeared in Ameagle, and certain settlements that involved magic appeared in Chidragon too.

“As I expected, my response is still not fast enough!”

However, Ji Ye evinced no pain on his face even though a hole had been left on his arm. He merely frowned for the first time.

Then, white steam popped up on his arm and drove away the black air that infiltrated his body.

“How is this possible?”

The short man in the black robe cried in disbelief with his high-pitched voice.

He seemed to have launched a spur-of-the-moment attack because of his fury, but it was actually his ultimate trick.

The staff in his hand was highly unusual. Although it didn't cause any fatal wound on Ji Ye's arm, the black air should've spread out like a lethal poison and forced Ji Ye to concede with the special abilities.

Yet the black air was simply nullified after it hit Ji Ye!

The tall leader, upon seeing that, had flas.h.i.+ng eyes. There was no telling what was on his mind.

“What are you doing? Why are you attacking Master Ji?”

Seeing that, s.h.i.+ the Fourth changed his expression and reached for the copper pipe next to him!

“s.h.i.+ the Fourth, you feel sleepy and want to go to bed, don't you?”

The tall man in the black robe turned his eyes to s.h.i.+ the Fourth, and his pupils were covered in Extraordinary glow.

After that, s.h.i.+ the Fourth, who had just picked up his copper pipe, closed his eyes beyond his control and fell off from the back of the elephant.

“Wa, wa…”

However, a plump black-and-white creature suddenly charged close from the fog behind Ji Ye.

Boom!

A rider on the back of the horse was flung away by the creature and hit a rock. The black robe that covered the rider's body was partly torn apart by the blast.

Underneath the thick black robe was a humanoid creature who had an extremely skinny body and whose arms were as thin as blades and covered in black necromantic energy!

Clearly, they were some sort of “aliens” rather than human beings.

However, the innocent panda was so powerful that its previous impact shattered half of the alien's bones. Its black necromantic energy kept leaking!

“My undead warrior!”

The short man in the black robe cried in a high-pitched voice.

After seeing Bao, one of the men in black robes changed his expression and whispered something to his boss.

“What?!

“Miss Panda? Are you sure?”

After that, the tall leader seemed rather b.u.mmed.

“Yes, I've watched her live stream…”

The man in the black robe nodded.

He was among the second batch of players to enter the Land of Inheritance. Being from Guan City, he had watched Han Meimei's stream and recognized the panda.

“So, it's 'Miss Panda'. Are Guan City and Yang City so blatantly monopolizing the resources?”

The tall leader was rather grim.

Then, instead of launching an attack, he criticized Ji Ye.

Clearly, the Castle of the Walking Dead wasn't a settlement from Yang City or Guan City.

He was clearly warning the Twin Dragon Mount fort and Han Meimei's settlement that by doing so they would p.i.s.s off other settlements from Earth and might get into trouble!

For example, after the Battlefield of Providence was closed, he could post this incident on the forum, and the two settlements would be publicly condemned. The reputation of the cities they were from would be tarnished too.

After all, the Confederate government had advocated cooperation among the players on the Land of Inheritance. It would be a scandal if the Twin Dragon Mount fort and the First Settlement of Guan City wanted to monopolize the heroes and expel other players!

“Wa, wa…”

Bao cried and then twisted the neck of the “man” who had just managed to get back to his feet.

As a summoned creature, Bao wasn't its namesake character from a certain movie, and it wasn't smart enough to understand the human language!

Nevertheless, it could detect the “threat” in those guys' tone, so he responded with real action.

“My undead warrior!”

Seeing that Bao twisted the neck of his undead warrior, the short player shouted with an even more high-pitched voice.

“What are you looking at? Come on and help!”

The short player was definitely quite influential in his own settlement.

After he said that, all the men in black robes took action except the tall leader.

Some of them initiated remote attacks at Bao and Ji Ye, whereas the rest rode toward Bao and Ji Ye at a high speed!
