"Song Yu".
Cheng Xue took the initiative to greet Song Yu, a faint smile appearing on her face.
It seems her plans in Marriott City are progressing quite smoothly.
Song Yu nodded to her and threw the empty can of soda into the trash can.
"Hello, Cheng Xue."
Among the national team members, there are those with unwavering will like Chu Langtanghong, and those with deep thoughts like Cheng Xue.
Song Yu had this feeling from the very first time he saw Cheng Xue.
This person isn't even a player.
Song Yu also found it very strange.
Is it because players on the national team can only be "simple-minded"?
Song Yu's thoughts drifted far away, and he turned to leave.
"Song Yu".
Cheng Xue called out to Song Yu again.
"What price would it take for you to give up Marriott City?"
Cheng Xue suddenly asked.
Currently, Song Yu and Xin Jia are the most threatening players, while the others are relatively less formidable.
Sister Shen owes money and has been temporarily placed under house arrest by them.
Of course, it's possible that Sister Shen has other trump cards up her sleeve and might suddenly use them against them.
The remaining people—Mist Bell, Twilight Society, and Nine Luminaries Green Cicada—are all easier to deal with than Song Yu and Xin Jia.
Song Yu has many helpers: a skilled player and an NPC.
Xin Jia... This person has been keeping a low profile since entering Marriott City, and it seems that he has been assimilated by Marriott City.
However, according to Cheng Xue's observation, this person had quite a few subtle tricks up his sleeve.
If we can get Song Yu out of the game, things will be much easier to deal with next.
"You can't afford it."
Song Yu, biting into an ice pop, said casually.
She was stating a fact, not mocking.
The world is bustling and noisy, but it all boils down to one thing: profit.
If there are enough benefits to tempt her, Song Yu is certainly willing to give up Marriott City.
But the question is, can the national team produce one?
Song Yu wasn't that great; he wasn't willing to sacrifice something so readily available for humanity.
If the national team asks her for potions to improve her attributes, Song Yu would honestly give them to them for free.
This was more than enough for her; she could make it with ease.
But Marriott City is different.
Who could give up such a huge asset?
Instead of trying to persuade me, you should think about how to kick Xin Jia out.
Song Yu waved his hand.
Xin Jia is a very shrewd person.
She has the advantage of being strong, and Xin Jia is not only strong but also cunning.
This person is even better at pretending than her.
Cheng Xue wasn't surprised by Song Yu's answer, but...
Cheng Xue watched Song Yu's departing figure, lost in thought.
The national team, of course, has its trump cards and backups.
"..."
After saying goodbye to Cheng Xue, Song Yu prepared to go find Xin Jia to see if she could find out anything from her.
As soon as they arrived at Xin Jia's office door, they saw Xin Jia about to leave.
"Song Yu?"
Xin Jia was somewhat surprised to see Song Yu arrive; she had thought that Song Yu and the others wouldn't come again after the last time.
While it wasn't that Xin Jia did it intentionally last time, there was definitely a similar implication.
After all, we're in a competitive relationship now, and the more we interact, the greater the conflicts will become.
It's better to avoid contact, each do our own thing, and at least leave some lingering affection.
"I came to ask you for some information."
Song Yu accurately threw the popsicle stick into the trash can in Xin Jia's office.
"You... you've discovered something?"
Xin Jia looked at Song Yu hesitantly. She had been staying in Marriott City and hadn't paid attention to what was happening outside.
Xin Jia had no idea what was happening outside.
"Sister Shen has acquired a city. If nothing unexpected happens, Sang Ning should be able to acquire a city as well."
Song Yu said it very bluntly.
"Xiong Yuanfeng?!"
This really surprised Xin Jia.
She still believes Sang Ning.
But Xiong Yuanfeng, she wasn't always in Marriott City, so how did she get the BOSS binding?
wrong!
Xin Jia stared wide-eyed at Song Yu, who nodded.
This guy already knew about these things and even managed to get his hands on the bound BOSS.
"Judging from the timing, it should be after the incident in the capital is over."
Maybe even earlier.
"As expected, Xiong Yuanfeng is the one we need to be most wary of."
Xin Jia took two deep breaths. This guy had actually done so much without saying a word.
They were completely unaware.
Song Yu and Xin Jia sat down facing each other and sighed at the same time.
They underestimated Sister Shen.
They actually overlooked this guy who was ruthless from beginning to end.
However, there's no point in dwelling on this. Since things have already come to this, let's think about how to get rid of the others.
Marriott City is the only city.
"Song Yu, don't you already have Bai Tu City?"
"That emotional monster in Bai Tu City is also a powerful weapon."
Xin Jia offered her advice tactfully.
The two of them naturally began to divide up these emotion bosses, completely disregarding the other players and the emotion boss monsters.
"I'm not the only player in my family, and that 'emotional monster' really hates me."
Song Yu pulled over a cushion and leaned comfortably against the sofa, saying lazily.
That emotional boss is not a good match for her.
"Where's Xiao Hei?"
Xin Jia asked.
Xiao Hei hasn't been with Song Yu lately. Could Song Yu have arranged for Xiao Hei to run off on his own?
Xin Jia is now feeling extremely insecure. Even if Song Yu is in a bad situation, she still has that strange guy in Bai Tu City as a safety net, unlike her.
"It went to the instance world."
Song Yu was telling the truth, but it's unclear whether Xin Jia believed him.
"I see."
Xin Jia nodded.
After the incident involving Sister Shen's early departure, she had to be somewhat skeptical of the credibility of Song Yu's words.
Relatively speaking, Song Yu is more trustworthy than Sister Shen and the others.
Song Yu looked at Xin Jia without saying anything more, just quietly watching her.
Xin Jia remained silent for a long time before speaking.
"what are you thinking?"
Xin Jia is referring to the place called Marriott City.
"I don't think either of us could get our hands on Marriott City on our own."
Song Yu pursed his lips.
It's more likely that the two of them will team up, but how they'll divide the spoils after they do so remains to be seen.
This is really hard to categorize.
There aren't many individually strong players on the national team, but the national team has enough resources.
With money and power, they are the bosses.
Players of Qingfu and Jiuyao will be tempted.
These people have been won over, and it's dangerous for her and Xin Jia to work together.
Although I don't want to admit it, the facts are right here.
Song Yu is not so greedy now; no matter what, she has Bai Tu City as a safety net.
As for Marriott City, it would be best if we could get it, but if we can't, so be it.
As long as she doesn't get involved in the battle for Marriott City, all the forces eyeing the Evergrande Nest will have to try to win her over.
After visiting the old capital, Song Yu had a change of heart.
Xin Jia hesitated, knowing that Song Yu was right.
However, a city suitable for human habitation has abundant resources.
It's not something you can just give up so easily; the benefits involved are just too great.
"Song Yu, what price do I need to pay if I want your help?"
Xin Jia took a deep breath and got straight to the point.
Xiong Yuanfeng has been kicked out of the game, Sang Ning doesn't care about what's going on here, and Song Yu is now also showing signs of wanting to watch the show.
So her only competitors are the national team, Kiri-no-Sakura, and Twilight Society.
Both gangs have been keeping an eye on Marriott City.
"That depends on what the national team's offer is."
"Besides, I'm actually here to persuade you to give up."
Song Yu peeled a candy, popped it into her mouth, and looked at Xin Jia with a smile.
If the Eternal Gold Nest cannot fall into her hands, then it absolutely cannot fall into the hands of players outside the national team.
If this person is Xin Jia, then it's even more unacceptable.
"Why don't we use Marriott City to exchange for a large sum of benefits from the national team?"
Song Yu advised.
By bringing Xin Jia along, the two of them could better negotiate terms, as she believed the national team must have comprehensive information.
They probably already have control over other bosses.
Before coming to see Xin Jia, Song Yu had some other ideas, but after entering her office, Song Yu overturned her previous thoughts.
No need.
She controls Bai Tu City, which is not much worse than Wan Hao City.
With proper management of Bai Tu City, Song Yu is confident that he can attract players from other instance worlds who want to retire.
Putting everything else aside, the mere fact that Bai Tu City possesses both a time-related attribute and an old-world charm is enough.
With Bai Tu City in the picture, taking over another resource-based city would be enough.
Seeing the struggle in Xin Jia's expression, Song Yu knew that she had no intention of giving up; if she didn't want to, then so be it.
She estimated that Xin Jia would collude with Xiong Yuanfeng. If the two of them were to collude, it would be easier for her to negotiate with the national team.
"Anyway, I'm not planning to get involved. As for you, you can think about it yourself."
Song Yu stretched and stood up, saying nonchalantly.
She then decided to wait and see how things would develop.
Once Xin Jia gets in touch with Xiong Yuanfeng, she will then go to the national team.
Given Xiong Yuanfeng's ability to stir up trouble, Song Yu suspected that Wu Zhong's group would be won over.
The Twilight Society will probably side with the national team.
So, in the end, the real competition is between the national team and Xin Jia.
Her stance and Sang Ning's stance are quite crucial.
As Song Yu stepped out of the Xinjia office building, he stroked his chin and began to think seriously.
Let's look for Sang Ning.
Song Yu thought to himself.
Although he had made up his mind, Song Yu did not reveal any intention.
On the surface, Song Yu is still one of the parties involved in the competition for Marriott City.
Xin Jia wasn't that stupid; she wouldn't reveal that Song Yu had already withdrawn, otherwise she would only face more trouble.
After leaving Xin Jia and returning home, Song Yu clearly felt that there were more players in the player gathering place.
and……
Song Yu stood on the balcony, watching the players trading below.
The players who came to Marriott City were much stronger, and many of them were unfamiliar faces she had never seen before.
If players' strength is divided into several levels, Song Yu and her group are undoubtedly among the top tier.
Song Yu plus Xiao Hei can crush them.
Chu Langtanghong also belongs to this group, while Cheng Yue from the national team belongs to the second tier.
The new players this time are all from the second tier.
Not to be underestimated.
Moreover, judging from the appearance of these players, they are all the type who have a special skill and shine in various aspects.
The national team is keeping a low profile.
Song Yu sensed an impending storm.
It's estimated that the final version of their world will be officially concluded around this time.
It's finally coming to an end.
Song Yu sighed.
This conflict in Marriott City was the last time players would divide up the world's resources before the instance was generated.
She needs to grab the good ones.
As Song Yu was pondering what he should rob, he suddenly caught a glimpse of several familiar faces in the square below.
"..."
Chen Jingyao?
And Hua Qing?
How did they get here?
Song Yu was quite surprised.
She frowned as she scanned the group of new players.
Then, it dawned on me.
She really underestimated the national team.
They've trained ordinary humans so quickly.
Should we say that the national team truly lives up to its name?
As long as they don't clash with players, these ordinary humans are more than enough to deal with emotional monsters.
Song Yu was not surprised by Hua Qing and Chen Jingyao's remarkable achievements and their joining the national team.
This is perfectly reasonable.
The people downstairs also noticed Song Yu.
After joining the national team, they truly realized how formidable Song Yu was.
Song Yu and Xiao Hei are no longer on the same level as them.
From the moment Song Yu was selected by the system, they went further and further apart.
Perhaps that's how friendships are, going through one phase after another.
Chen Jingyao looked at Song Yu with a complicated expression. Since the last time she saw Song Yu, her feelings had changed a lot.
Is it growth, or being influenced by reality?
When Chen Jingyao saw Song Yu again, she couldn't think of her as much as before.
After a long silence, Chen Jingyao did not go up to greet Song Yu, but simply nodded at her.
Then he left without looking back.
Do you hate Song Yu?
Knowing Song Yu's abilities and having experienced the attack from the emotional monster, she felt hatred.
Song Yu was clearly capable, and everyone had such a good relationship.
How could Song Yu treat them like that?
Looking back, perhaps Song Yu didn't intend to treat them that way.
Perhaps Song Yu simply... forgot.
Because I've seen a wider world, because time in the dungeon is too long, because everything else is more important, because...
There are many reasons.
These friends, with whom they had very little contact, became less important.
When they appeared in front of Song Yu, Song Yu suddenly remembered.
Ah, so I have these friends after all.
We should help them.
When they met last time, Chen Jingyao could still tell herself that she was still Song Yu's best friend and that Song Yu cared about her.
This time, she probably can't deceive herself.
To Song Yu, they were not that important, they were insignificant.
Song Yu stared at the departing figures of the group and blinked.
She could sense the changes in the others, those intangible shifts in their emotions.
But... let it be.
Everyone is alive, that's good.
Song Yu leaned against the balcony railing and looked up at the sky.
The national team has gathered so many non-players here; it seems like a tough battle is about to begin.
I don't know what their plans are.
According to Song Yu's own thinking, she was not inclined to take Marriott City by force.
Because it's a bit difficult.
There are too many thugs in Marriott City.
The AI didn't stay in Marriott City for so long for nothing.
In addition to player-controlled attackers, the Eternal Gold Nest also has many emotion-based monster attackers.
"These are turbulent times."
Song Yu sighed.
The players below were trading busily, completely unaware that death and danger were about to befall them.
