Yeyun picked up the phone and said coldly, "It's you."
Zhang Yusheng sighed, "It's me."
Yeyun sneered, "Is this your plan? To wipe out all the T players in Kowloon without lifting a finger, and in the end, only a few stragglers are left?"
Zhang Yusheng on the other end of the phone was clearly taken aback, "You know about it?"
Yeyun said, "It's not hard to guess, right? As long as you don't fall into a misconception, a little hint is enough to figure it out."
His eyes swept over Su Ya and the motherboard, who were both looking at him, and he decided to say it all, "To have a team led by a lieutenant colonel wiped out, your best move is to do nothing. After all, the major event that precedes the main mission was initiated by the Ghost Team. After the mission changed to a faction main mission, the Ghost Team would clearly have an additional [Important Mission] compared to everyone else in both factions!"
Zhang Yusheng said, "I thought you were a new player who had never participated in a faction main mission, but I didn't expect you to know such secrets."
Yeyun said, "I indeed haven't participated in a faction main mission, but that doesn't stop me from deducing it... Do you know how much Roger spent for this faction main mission? At least 200,000 game points! He turned a group of ragtag players into an army! If there wasn't an equivalent reward, why would he do it? Someone reminded me of the existence of mission penalties, so logically, Roger's huge investment for 'a certain mission' must come with a substantial reward and an equally substantial penalty. Even if he could afford the penalty before, after spending 200,000, he definitely couldn't afford it anymore."
Zhang Yusheng said, "You're right. If you want to turn a certain area into a base dominated by one faction, you must eliminate 99% of the players from the opposing faction. For the major event, it's natural for Roger to invest everything he has."
Yeyun said, "But the major event changed to a faction main mission, and the task Roger originally considered as the 'trigger' naturally turned into the 'important mission' I mentioned earlier. This mission must be different from our current mission, but if you think about it carefully, it should ultimately lead to the same goal."
Zhang Yusheng said, "Yes, based on our faction's inference, Roger's mission should have changed from 'clearing out the CT faction players involved in the major event' to 'clearing out the forces of the mysterious organization in this event,' and the reward is calculated based on the number of enemies cleared. According to past situations, when Roger initiated the major event, he would have received the number of CT players joining the concert at the same time. Now, it has changed to the number of the mysterious organization's combat forces, as indicated by the first branch of the faction main mission system prompt."
"Hmph, I guess his final reward hasn't changed, right?"
"Yes, as long as 50% of the forces of the mysterious organization are eliminated, his mission is considered complete. If 90% are eliminated, the system will indicate that the Ghost Team will dominate Hong Kong, not only restricting the actions of CT players of a certain level in Hong Kong but also erasing all CT players in Kowloon who participated in this faction main mission!"
Zhang Yusheng's words made Yeyun shudder, "So serious?"
Zhang Yusheng said, "The police and the criminals are in a life-or-death situation, which is very normal. Moreover, even if the major event hadn't turned into a faction main mission, Roger would still have taken action to kill the CT players involved. This change actually made the Ghost Team's mission a bit easier."
Yeyun sighed, "High risk, high reward... Since the goal is to eliminate a large number of CT players in Kowloon, the penalty for failing the mission must be terrifying, right?"
Zhang Yusheng said, "Do you think anyone can initiate a major event? If it hadn't turned into a faction main mission, the game points Roger spent on you would have been used as a deposit to initiate the major event... In other words, if the major event mission fails, he would also be kicked out of the game. The system always forces both factions to fight to the death, which is not hard to understand."
Yeyun said, "With the major event turning into a faction main mission, Roger must have breathed a sigh of relief. Both factions dealing with the mysterious organization means his chances of completing the mission are almost 100%, but whether the CT faction will let him reach the 90% elimination requirement is still unknown."
Zhang Yusheng said, "Isn't this enough to make him relax?"
Yeyun said, "Taking advantage of his relaxed state, you thought of this plan? Doing nothing and letting the mysterious organization complete their mission and escape. Even if Roger realizes it in the end, he will be caught off guard, and it will be impossible for him to complete his mission."
He sneered, "The ordinary players of the CT faction are truly pitiful, being sold and still helping you count the money... The inaction of the CT faction will certainly lead to the Ghost Team being kicked out of the game, but the ordinary players of both factions will also be unable to afford the penalty for mission failure, leading to a large number of them being kicked out of the game. And you, the CT leadership, by paying some penalties and sacrificing the hundreds of ordinary CT players who follow you, can easily eliminate a major enemy and turn Kowloon into your base. What a ruthless calculation!"
Zhang Yusheng was silent for a few seconds and said, "I called to tell you to pass this information to Roger."
Yeyun was puzzled, "Why do this? Don't tell me you were abandoned by the CT leadership and betrayed them out of anger."
"No..." Zhang Yusheng said, "Do you know that Roger has a strategist named Scholar by his side? He might not see through our plot immediately, but no matter how strong the deception, it can't completely blind a wise person. He will eventually realize it. When the Ghost Team rushes out in a hurry and the ordinary players of your faction are about to be erased, they will surely fight back fiercely. At that time, the fighting will spread to Hung Hom... and even most of Kowloon, causing heavy casualties among the civilians!"
These words raised Yeyun's opinion of Zhang Yusheng a bit.
But he sighed and said, "Do you think I don't want to tell him? Do you know what will happen if I tell him?"
Zhang Yusheng was taken aback and pondered, "The T faction will immediately act in Hung Hom."
Yeyun said, "Their action means that the CT faction, which has been monitoring the surroundings, will shift from a passive to an active position, and the CT faction will have no burden. At that time, they can fully cooperate with the mysterious organization to attack the T faction..."
Zhang Yusheng said, "The T faction will certainly suffer heavy casualties, but it's better than doing nothing... Ultimately, our goal is to protect the five girls or the item they possess. As long as the mysterious organization doesn't complete their mission, our mission is complete."
Yeyun said, "That's what I'm afraid of. The T faction's hasty action will certainly lead to chaos, and with thousands of civilians on the scene, if the mysterious organization... or even the CT faction, hides among the crowd and causes trouble, it will be even more detrimental to our mission."
Zhang Yusheng had to admit that Yeyun was right, but at this point, what choices were there?
"The biggest problem is that without someone in charge to evacuate the crowd, chaos will eventually ensue."
"You're right, and if the T faction doesn't enter the scene, even if we try to protect the girls and the CT faction doesn't cause trouble, how can we two alone deal with fourteen Nusha?"
Both fell into silence.
"Who is the leader of your CT faction? Decisive and ruthless, treating human lives as nothing."
"He is the external support invited two days ago, the strategist of the famous mainland school team 'Seven Wolves,' codenamed Unlucky Wolf. As his name suggests, wherever he goes, misfortune follows. I forgot to mention, the major event of the Asian Jewelry Exhibition in August was planned by him."
"He!?" Yeyun's heart trembled, and he instantly recalled the scenes of dozens of wealthy people and hundreds of innocent civilians being brutally killed.
"If it comes to that..." Zhang Yusheng gritted his teeth, "Kill the five SGIRLs and burn their personal items!"
Yeyun was puzzled, "Aren't you a fan of theirs?"
"I know what's more important!"
This was a good idea, at least the mysterious organization's goal wouldn't be achieved. If it could be completed so easily, Yeyun wouldn't mind destroying the flowers... even if he and Kula had developed a bit of affection.
Which is more important, a little affection for a woman or 18,000 points in fines? Yeyun knew the answer.
The key is...
Yeyun looked at the mission list and sighed, "No, the second branch of the system's mission is 'protection.' I don't know if killing them would be considered defying the system, but if it ruins the Ghost Team's mission, I'm afraid I won't survive the pursuit until tomorrow morning."
