Chapter 494: Share Allocation, Wu Lun’s Confidence,
Moment of Slaughter… Has Arrived
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The efficiency of the Journey to the West team in spreading information was quite high. In just half a day, more than twenty players arrived from nearby areas, all belonging to the Ba.s.s Kingdom camp.
Despite the unprecedented defeat in the Feiguang City battle, the Ba.s.s Kingdom still maintained control over the region hundreds of kilometers east of the border.
If one were to look at the current strategic map, one would see that Feiguang City and its surrounding areas were among the few places not yet fallen under the control of the Ba.s.s Kingdom, like a conspicuous protrusion on an otherwise smooth and gentle line, very eye-catching.
However, this also meant that players belonging to the Lienhardt Grand Duchy camp needed to avoid the control zone of the Ba.s.s Kingdom and take a longer route to reach Feiguang City, requiring more time.
These players, who without exception, wanted to claim Ji Chen’s head for the bounty, were pleasantly surprised when they saw thousands of unfamiliar troops openly stationed on the peninsula.
They had also heard the rumors on their way to Feiguang City. Initially, they were just pa.s.sing by to take a look, but they didn’t expect the news, which had no clear source, to be true.
That player named Ji Chen was really hiding here.
They exchanged glances, and excitement and antic.i.p.ation shone in their eyes.
Moreover, it seemed that the major guilds had not arrived yet, so perhaps they could be the first to pluck the fruit!
Wu Lun stood on a high point, gazing at the peninsula in the distance, shrouded in a faint mist, a hint of delight in his eyes.
The player who was wanted didn’t seem to be thinking clearly due to the bounty on his head. He actually left the heavily guarded Feiguang City, where many soldiers from the Lienhardt Grand Duchy were stationed, and brought his army back to this place.
He already sent out reconnaissance units and learned that this peninsula was basically a dead end.
Three sides were surrounded by the sea, and one side was connected to the land.
The terrain of the peninsula was mostly flat, except for this abandoned small town, there was no place to defend.
There were only a few stranded dilapidated small boats on the sh.o.r.e, and there were no transport vessels to cross the waters.
And the peninsula’s only exit had already been firmly blocked by them.
It could be said that the player named Ji Chen was already a trapped turtle in a jar.
Thinking of this, a greedy look flashed in his eyes.
The reward for the bounty was a whopping five million gold coins, one million units of resources, and ten 2~4-star treasures!
Even if he could only get a portion of it, for a solo player like him, it was enough to become incredibly wealthy overnight!
Wu Lun looked at the other players who had also arrived and said with a smile.
“Brothers, since we’ve all come here for the bounty, let me be straightforward. It’s probably impossible for one person to claim it all now.
We’d better be open and discuss the distribution issue together to avoid any conflicts!”
Other players nodded in agreement. Their strengths were quite evenly matched, and if they started fighting among themselves over this, they might not only fail to get the bounty but also end up severely wounded, leaving themselves vulnerable.
They came all this way for a reason, and meaningless bloodshed wasn’t it.
“So, how do you suggest we split the bounty?” a player with a stern expression asked.
Wu Lun smiled and said, “It’s simple, we’ll allocate based on the troops each of us has sent. Since the player we’re after has a personal bounty set by the Ba.s.s Kingdom, he’s bound to be formidable, so don’t underestimate him.
In a life-and-death situation, even a rabbit will bite, and if we push him to the brink, he might use all means to resist. By doing this, those who send fewer troops will suffer fewer losses, and those who send more troops will naturally incur more injuries. What do you think?”
Hearing this, the other players pondered for a moment and then voiced their agreement.
The distribution method seemed fair, and it followed the principle of “the more you contribute, the more you get.”
“I agree.”
“This plan sounds good, 1 support it!”
“1 think it can work too…”
Seeing that everyone agreed, Wu Lun’s face was filled with satisfaction. This feeling of being recognized and obeyed by everyone was immensely enjoyable, much like his supreme and authoritative position in his own territory.
After a moment, he spoke with a self-satisfied tone, “Now that everyone is on board, let’s discuss the issue of troop strength. I’ll set an example. I’m willing to contribute eight hundred 2-star elite werewolves and three hundred 4-star bloodthirsty werewolves.”
The expressions of the other players changed slightly. Werewolves were known as a formidable race among the Orc units, excelling in speed, a.s.sault capabilities, and their bloodthirsty nature. They were strong in combat and particularly suited for complex terrains like ruins.
No wonder this guy was so delighted earlier.
The other players couldn’t help but think to themselves.
But, to be fair, an army of this caliber was already quite powerful among solo players.
Who knew how many solo players were still developing, with their troop strengths at the 3rd tier.
Seeing the change in their expressions, Wu Lun’s smile grew even more p.r.o.nounced. “1 wonder how many troops you are willing to contribute?”
A player with a face full of freckles stepped forward slightly and looked around before speaking, “1’11 contribute nine hundred 2-star elite Forest Barbarians.”
Forest Barbarians were a primitive tribe that lived in mountainous forests. They were known for their brute strength, resilience, and savage nature. While they possessed formidable power, they couldn’t be recruited through military recruitment camps. It seemed this player had found a way to subdue a tribe of Forest Barbarians and lead them into battle..

Moment of Slaughter… Has Arrived (2)

Another player chimed in, saying, “I’ll contribute fifteen hundred 5-star tier 3 Muck Dwellers.”
Upon hearing this, the other players couldn’t help but be taken aback.
In the eyes of many, Muck Dwellers were among the weakest races in terms of combat capability, even less formidable than the hybrid half-fish races.
Fifteen hundred 5-star tier 3 Muck Dwellers alone had combat power that could rival three hundred Forest Barbarians, which was quite a laughable contribution.
It appeared that this player was here just to get by.
However, they had still provided fifteen hundred cannon fodder troops, and their share in the final distribution would undoubtedly be smaller. So, the other players merely sneered in secret without saying much.
This player was clearly aware of the situation but showed no signs of embarra.s.sment or awkwardness on their face.
In this world, having thick skin was essential to survive.
Resources and wealth were the true currency!
Soon, more than twenty players had stated the types of troops they were sending and the number of troops.
There were humans, orcs, various other races, and some less common troop types.
After months of development, players had already developed thousands of troop growth paths, and no one had exactly the same troop composition.
Naturally, the troops sent by Wu Lun were the most powerful among them.
However, what surprised him slightly was that two players had brought sea races, totaling fifteen hundred in number. These sea-based troops, capable of freely traversing shallow waters, would serve as a safeguard in case Ji Chen attempted to escape through the ocean, thus perfecting their encirclement.
As the various players a.s.sembled their armies in front of them, excitement lit
