Infinite Sun in the East China Sea

Chapter 3: The Emperor's Blade
On the other side, the old man also ended the fight with the help of the man in suit and glasses, and cut the fat bandit's neck with a knife.

"Ten bonus points... a voice appeared out of nowhere in my head... It seems we have really come to an extraordinary place."

The white-haired old man wiped the blood off the knife and sheathed it.

He frowned and studied the black watch on his left hand.

What made him frown was that when the woman died just now, he seemed to hear a sentence, "Kill one member and deduct one thousand reward points."

He didn't know the purchasing power of the reward points, but he worked hard to kill a bandit and only got ten reward points. It would not be easy to earn the thousand points deducted for killing teammates.

"You mean we didn't travel to ancient times, but entered a game?" The middle school boy who was almost scared silly asked tremblingly.

He didn't expect that there would be such ruthless people in the mediocre team.

He killed people in a flash.

Even that seemingly cute peer is not as harmless as he seems.

"That should be it. It can transmit information directly in people's minds. The real world definitely does not have such ability. We have entered a game created by real gods and demons. If we want to survive, we may have to do what the game makers want." The man in the suit and glasses sighed.

Xu Feng looked at the man a few more times. His tone was so decisive, as if he had already confirmed that this was the main god's space.

Another traveler? Or perhaps... a guide to the main divine space?
"In other words, we are going to the Lion Sound City next? But, where is the Lion Sound City?" The white-haired old man frowned and asked, thinking of the small words on the watch.

He glanced at the corpse on the ground, sighed and said, "I shouldn't have acted so decisively. I should have left someone alive."

"I think I know where the Lion Sound City is." The fat otaku who was hiding at the back took a deep breath and stood up to speak.

Including Xu Feng, the others immediately turned their eyes to the unprepossessing little fat man.

Suddenly, the little fat man became a little nervous. He stammered, "When I first saw the name... Lion Sound City Walled City on my watch, I actually felt a sense of... strange familiarity. Later... when I saw those bandits, I had an even stronger sense of déjà vu."

"That scene is very similar to the opening scene of an animated film I watched yesterday. Before entering here, I was rewatching the film on my computer, and then an option popped up on my computer..."

The man in the suit and glasses stroked his chin, interrupting the fat man and saying, "Do you want to know the meaning of life? Do you want to truly... live? I remember I saw this question on the computer before entering here. In other words, did we all click YES before entering here?"

"That should be it." Xu Feng agreed. Although he didn't know why he entered the main god space without even clicking YES, he didn't want to make himself too special.

"Let this little guy continue to tell us what he knows first." The white-haired old man waved his hand, signaling the little fat man to continue.

He asked hurriedly, "Let's not talk about where Lion Sound Stronghold is. Will those bandits who left earlier come back?"

Although they had seized weapons from the two bandits, with their combined strength, they could only deal with two or three bandits at most.

If those dozen people return, all six modern people who are still alive will die.

The little fat man took a deep breath, grinned and said excitedly: "If the plot hadn't changed, those bandits who left earlier would have all been killed!"

He excitedly recounted the story:

"The movie I watched before was called 'The Stranger: The Legend of the Bladeless Emperor.' The bandits in that movie were just minor characters. At the very beginning, they attacked the Ming Dynasty's Jinyiwei who were heading to the 'Kingdom of Red Pond,' but were completely slaughtered by Luo Lang, a powerful member of the Jinyiwei, a blond, blue-eyed stranger."

Hearing this, several listeners breathed a sigh of relief.

They most likely wouldn't have to face those vicious bandits. The fat man continued, "The Jinyiwei came to the Kingdom of Chichi to capture a special child named Zaitaro. They planned to use his blood to create an elixir for the emperor. The Lion Sound Fortress was where the lord of Chichi Kingdom had built an altar for the Ming people and refined the elixir."

"During his escape, Tsai Taro met the wandering samurai Wuming, who had retired from the sword, and hired this red-haired foreigner. With Wuming's help, Tsai Taro arrived at Wanjue Temple, where Master Xiang'an, the master who had sent him from Ming to Fuso, was. However, in order to protect the temple, Master Xiang'an betrayed Tsai Taro to the Jinyiwei."

"At the same time, the local lord, while accepting the Jinyiwei's employment, also had strange ideas. After he found out the Jinyiwei's purpose, he planned to capture Zaitalang and directly negotiate with the Ming emperor to obtain greater benefits."

"Finally, the battle between the Fuso warriors and the Ming Dynasty's Jinyiwei took place in Shiziyin Fortress. When both sides suffered heavy losses, Wuming also arrived here to save Zitaro, killed several Jinyiwei, and rescued Zitaro."

The little fat man said excitedly: "Among them, the final battle between Wuming and Jinyiwei Luolang is worthy of being called the pinnacle fight in anime movies."

After listening to the little fat man's explanation of the plot, Xu Feng also recalled some details.

The plot is very simple. In general, a yellow-haired Spanish man and a red-haired Dutch man fight a life-and-death duel on an island country for a child from the Ming Dynasty.

So the name of this animated film is "Stranger".

The best thing about this animated film is the fighting scenes.

He had also encountered that battle many times when he was using a certain pink software.

It's fantastic, and there are very few fights in anime that can rival it.

But if we regard the scenes shown in the anime as reality, the fighting power displayed by Wuming and Luolang is obviously too strong!
Their physical strength is clearly beyond that of ordinary people.

"If the so-called plot is all true, it's actually not difficult for us to complete the task. Generally speaking, there are three methods: the best, the middle, and the worst."

The fat man said confidently, "The best strategy is to reach Shiziyin Fortress before the Jinyiwei arrive. After all, we only need to stay there for an hour to complete the mission. Those Jinyiwei didn't decide to build the altar in Shiziyin Fortress right away. Now, that fortress is just an abandoned place."

Xu Feng nodded.

If you know the exact location of Lion Sound City, this method is indeed the best way.

Of course, this approach also has risks.

They couldn't be sure when the Jinyiwei would find the Shiziyin Stronghold. What if they just entered the stronghold and the Jinyiwei came to their door? Then they wouldn't be able to escape even if they wanted to, and their lives would be completely decided by those characters in the plot.

What if one of the Jinyiwei is unhappy with them, or thinks they have some hidden secrets and kills them directly? They will have no power to resist at all.

The fat man continued, "The middle strategy is to infiltrate the workers when the Jinyiwei are building the altar. The altar they are building is very large, so they will definitely be hiring workers. That will be our opportunity."

Xu Feng was stunned for a moment.

Is Zhongce so unreliable?

Doesn't this guy really know how big the gap is between himself as a modern person and an ancient person?

Sneak in?
I'm afraid you're courting death!

"As for the worst plan, we'd like to wait for the plot to end. By then, both the Jinyiwei and the warriors of the Akaike Country will have been killed or wounded. The Shiziyin Castle will have been reduced to ruins in the battle, and no one will stop us from entering."
