Black Book

Chapter 157: Faction Confrontation
In a trance, Feng Zhaobai looked at Zhu Haomiao with complicated eyes, and vaguely understood Wang Hua's mood.

You really deserve to die!

We are both [God's Destiny], why are you so outstanding? ! !

But as a mature hegemonic-level extraordinary being, Feng Zhaobai's [Dao heart] is tenacious. After a brief emotional imbalance, he quickly adjusted his mentality and regained his composure.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. It's a good opportunity for you to come over. I have something to tell you."

Seeing Feng Zhaobai's serious expression, Zhu Haomiao perked up a little.

"You said."

"The third stage of the Ascension Tournament has begun. It is a faction confrontation, with the Sino-Japanese War as the background, and the location is on the peninsula!"

"What?!!"

His heart skipped a beat, and the boy asked subconsciously.

"Can you still play like this?"

Hearing this, Feng Zhaobai looked at him strangely.

"We often did this kind of thing in the past, such as the Civil War in the United States, the Crusades, the Hundred Years' War in England, the Thirty Years' War in Europe, and the Han-Xiongnu War..."

"Every time I encounter a similar Fantasy Realm Organizing Committee, they like to have faction confrontations, euphemistically calling it an epic feeling. In fact, it's just to make the real audience feel involved, to get high ratings, and to do some gambling."

"........."

Seeing the boy's indescribable expression, Feng Zhaobai smiled and raised the corner of his mouth.

“A bit disillusioned, huh?”

"Uh... I originally thought that the Ascension Competition was very grand, but I didn't expect..."

"I didn't expect it to be full of the smell of money?"

"Ah."

"Haha, there isn't that much idealism in this world. Everything has to bow to practical interests."

"The Olympic Committee was like this, FIFA was like this, and the current Ascension Tournament Organizing Committee is also like this..."

Listening to Feng Zhaobai's soft whispers, Zhu Haomiao was filled with emotion.

So real!

The extraordinary people at the initial heaven level are far from being transcendent. Perhaps only when they reach the middle heaven level or even the high heaven level can they truly break away from the cause and effect of reality and look down on all living beings with a transcendent attitude!
Seeing Zhu Haomiao lowering his head in deep thought as if he had realized something, Feng Zhaobai smiled slightly and changed the subject.

"However, this time the schedule is slightly special, and it also includes some other considerations..."

"Other considerations?"

"Well, a certain superpower was dissatisfied with the war that happened decades ago and wanted to get back at the cause, but it didn't dare to turn against the enemy in reality, so it could only push for a 'bloodless' war in the fantasy realm."

Zhu Haomiao's eyes moved, and he suddenly realized, then frowned again.

"We didn't object?"

Feng Zhaobai pursed his lips meaningfully and shook his head.

"It's just what I want..."

"We also need an opportunity, a chance to shake the old king's majesty!"

At this point, Feng Zhaobai suddenly remembered something and laughed.

"The one that really reacted strongly was South Korea. Decades ago, the peninsula was a chessboard, and decades later, it was still a chessboard. All those years of strong foreign propaganda suddenly became a joke."

"Their self-esteem was already a bit abnormal, and now it has been completely broken. They have come up with a lot of hysterical and confusing actions... For example, they clamored for the commander of the Ugly Country to kneel down and apologize..."

"In comparison, the little bastard is much more sensible. He knows that he should not interfere in the fight between gods. At most, he can make a few sarcastic complaints."

"However, when the two powers both wanted a war, no one cared about the opinions of the two colonies."

"A weak country has no diplomacy~"

Seeing Feng Zhaobai sighing, Zhu Haomiao smacked his lips. For the first time, he felt that the geopolitical contradictions in reality had extended to the fantasy realm! After speaking, Feng Zhaobai sighed, patted the boy on the shoulder, and looked expectant.

"Go ahead. The battlefield is where you can show your skills."

Stop messing around in the country!
Feng Zhaobai secretly complained in his heart, but inexplicably a sense of relief surged in his heart, as if a huge burden had been lifted from him.

Finally, we are sending this scourge abroad...

On the other side, Zhu Haomiao also felt a surge of excitement and anticipation in his heart, and nodded vigorously.

Immediately afterwards, after discussing some details with Feng Zhaobai, Zhu Haomiao decisively said goodbye and ran straight to the dock.

"Wilson, is the cruise ship ready?"

"The people and the boat are ready and waiting for your arrival at any time."

"very good!"

Cutting off the mental connection, Zhu Haomiao followed Wilson's guidance to a British-owned dock. From a distance, he saw a huge and luxurious cruise ship floating on the sea like a small mountain.

"My lord."

Wilson, dressed in a neat suit, came forward like a competent butler, and respectfully guided the young man onto the red carpet.

"It's a bit too high-profile. Let's keep it simple from now on."

Noticing some curious glances from people on the dock, Zhu Haomiao pulled up his hood to cover his face and strode onto the cruise ship.

"As ordered."

Wilson followed the young man closely, explaining the vehicle under his feet to him in a low voice.

"According to your previous instructions, we have prepared this high-speed cruise ship. It will only take two or three days to reach the Goryeo Peninsula from the Magic City."

"In addition, the chef team on board is also a royal chef hired at a high price. The entire cruise ship has more than a hundred service staff who can meet any of your needs."

Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao looked at him with a complicated expression.

Any needs?
There is something behind your words, kid!

Could it be that they brought the brothel’s top lady up here as well?
I just casually mentioned a logistical request, I didn't expect you to make such an exaggeration...

Such a big cruise ship serves me alone...

So decadent!

With a long sigh, Zhu Haomiao touched his shriveled belly and smacked his lips.

"It just so happens that I woke up and haven't eaten yet."

"I'll arrange for the kitchen to prepare the meal right away."

Woo~~~~~
As the young man walked into the cabin restaurant to have his meal, a deep whistle sounded into the sky, and the cruise ship weighing thousands of tons slowly left the port of Magic City and headed north.

A few hours later, Zhu Haomiao, who had eaten and drunk his fill, lay on the magnificent and luxurious bed, took off the sword at his waist and threw it aside.

Smacking his lips, savoring the taste of the meal, the boy couldn't help but nod slightly.

The chef team is no worse than that of Xinghualou, only the taste of the dishes they specialize in is slightly different, but the nutrition is basically at the same level.

Touching his newly filled four-dimensional stomach, Zhu Haomiao narrowed his eyes, wondering whether he should continue the [Pupation] breakthrough.

The closer he got to the war, the more he wanted to push all his skills to the limit.

But there was obviously not enough time, so we could only choose the most important breakthrough, and then see how intense the war was before making a decision...

I heard that it is normal for this kind of faction competition to last for several virtual years. It is impossible for me to not [transform] during such a long war.

After thinking for a moment, Zhu Haomiao decided to follow the established plan. When he arrived at the front line, he would not rush to get involved, but would first find out the battle situation.

With a thought, a gray-white silk thread emerged from the void and wrapped around the young man at a level invisible to the naked eye.

Typhoon Gemei seems to be coming, brothers along the coast please be careful |ω｀)
