Seeing Bai Yunkong's shocked and somewhat flustered expression,
Zhang Tianle, while feeling envious, calmly said in the group chat, "@Bai Yunkong, kid, a mere 1,000 magic crystals shocked you like this? It just goes to show you're still too young and know nothing about our Alliance."
After Bai Yunkong saw the message, he immediately sent a private message, "Brother Le, do you mean... the Alliance Leader didn't make a mistake, it really is 1,000 magic crystals?"
Zhang Tianle pouted, but still maintained a certain ineffable demeanor, "Of course not, just use them. These 1,000 magic crystals are just a drop in the bucket."
Little punk, if you knew that the person behind our Alliance has at least tens of thousands of soul crystals stockpiled in his warehouse, wouldn't you be scared witless?
Zhang Tianle made an estimate.
With an income of one to two tens of thousands of soul crystals a day, there should be at least tens of thousands by now!
He truly is the man behind the Alliance.
Terrifying as such.
Zhang Tianle couldn't help but smack his lips as he thought of this number.
On the other side...
After confirming there were no issues, Bai Yunkong immediately began training his troops without delay.
Although magic crystals are not as useful as soul crystals, they are still considered a high-level resource, and when mass-producing troops, they are much more effective than other ordinary resources.
Bai Yunkong immediately invested these magic crystals into the War Mill to produce soldiers.
Speaking of which...
Having been in the Dark World for so long, this was Bai Yunkong's first time fighting such a wealthy war.
He was even a little unaccustomed to it.
"Should I conserve them...?"
"Forget it, forget it. Alliance Leader said to spare no expense, so it must be no expense. Let's do it."
The War Mill in Bai Yunkong's territory was operating at full capacity.
Instantly.
One by one, winged Feathered-folk walked out of the War Mill.
...Meanwhile.
Dark World.
East of Boulder Hills, a certain Lord was bragging to his allies in his Alliance, "Brothers, I'm telling you, I'm going to get rich this time. You used to call me Little Xu, but from now on, you'll have to call me Boss Xu."
Xu Hu said smugly.
In the Witch Alliance chat group, a Lord sneered, "I say, Old Thief Xu, you're always doing sneaky things. How could that make you rich? Stop making a fool of yourself in the group every day, okay?"
Xu Hu said indignantly, "Pah! What do you know? What do you mean sneaky things? I'm telling you, this time I've pulled off a big one. From now on, I'll be able to walk sideways across the entire Dark World."
"Heh heh!"
"With your low-level troops, you still want to walk sideways?"
"Unless you can get tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of Harpies, but do you have that kind of money?"
"A mere clown."
It was evident that this Xu Hu was not well-liked in the Witch Alliance.
Although the Witch Alliance itself did not have a good reputation.
The Lords in the Alliance were not good people either.
But Xu Hu was usually stingy. When he was asked to send troops to support an ally, he would demand benefits and even took the opportunity to plunder two territories.
This kind of behavior made the other Lords in the Alliance very dissatisfied.
If it weren't for some connections, he would have been kicked out long ago.
At this moment.
A Lord named Lin Qingqiu said in the group, "@Xu Hu, what exactly have you discovered? Hurry up and tell us, stop hiding it."
Xu Hu chuckled, "Vice Alliance Leader, please allow me to keep you in suspense for a bit. Once I succeed, I will definitely give you ladies great benefits."
That's what Xu Hu said.
But what he was thinking was, you stinky women, once I succeed, I will definitely take you into my harem and make you the seasoning for my conquest of the world.
After speaking, he directly closed the system interface.
He also ignored Lin Qingqiu's @.
Then he opened the military panel and found the two units on an expedition outside.
One of them, numbering seven to eight hundred, was currently circling a small village, hovering above it.
The other unit had only a few dozen members.
However, their location was within the Harpy Kingdom.
Xu Hu was a very conceited person.
But he wasn't so conceited that he lost his head.
Yesterday, when his Harpies were patrolling this area, they saw a village protected by a shield. He immediately thought of the level 10 Dungeon Lord incident that had been widely circulated in the chat channel a few days ago.
Xu Hu immediately connected these two events.
He finally came to a conclusion... The owner of this protected shield was very likely that level 10 Dungeon Lord, and even if not, he must be a very profitable individual.
Then, as long as he took it for himself.
From now on, in this Dark World, if not walking sideways, then ruling a territory would certainly not be a problem.
However...
Xu Hu also knew in his heart that he might not be able to take it on alone.
So what to do?
Call for support from the Alliance?
No, that's not right!
Xu Hu knew his own strength. By then, the lion's share would definitely be divided cleanly by those guys from the Witch Alliance. If that were the case, what would he even gain?
Therefore...
Xu Hu thought of an absolutely reliable ally, which was the Harpy Kingdom.
It must be said.
Xu Hu was quite lucky. His spawn point happened to be in the Harpy-ruled Boulder Hills, and his troops happened to be the Firehawk Clan, which had a purer Harpy bloodline.
This allowed him to speak a few words with the Harpy Kingdom.
Compared to the allies in the Witch Alliance, the Harpy Kingdom was much easier to fool and didn't have a big appetite. As long as he promised them some benefits,
They would definitely assist with all their national strength.
That was tens of thousands of Harpies. Such a powerful force, let alone that level 10 Dungeon Lord, even if the Witch Alliance army came, it wouldn't be enough to fight.
With such assistance, why would Xu Hu still need the Alliance's help?
Why would he need more people to share this pie?
Heh!
When I succeed, that will be the time for you guys to bow down to me.
"Report..."
Suddenly, a Harpy messenger descended from the sky.
He said urgently, "Reporting, Lord, a large number of Feathered-folk have appeared outside our castle. They... they are attacking the city."
"What?"
Xu Hu was stunned, "...No, what Feathered-folk? Is it that good-for-nothing we robbed a few times before?"
Upon receiving this news, Xu Hu rushed out of the castle in a hurry.
He looked up at the sky.
He saw a dense mass of figures in the sky, all Feathered-folk warriors with white wings. Xu Hu just glanced at them and knew there were probably over 1,000 of them.
He couldn't help but curse.
"Damn it."
"How did this poor guy suddenly turn his fortunes around?"
