[System prompt: The first statistic of the points leaderboard has ended. Since your team's "Purple Moon Mercenary Group" ranks last, 50 points will be deducted;]

The system prompt for deducting points was as expected, Su Mo opened the leaderboard again, and the gap between Ziyue and Sirius was even bigger.

Points leaderboard:

First place: Sirius Mercenary Group 100 points;

Second place: War Tiger Mercenary Group - 115 points;

Third place: Ziyue Mercenary Group - 174 points;

Statistics countdown: 04:59:52

"Damn, that insidious group of Zhanhu must have entered Tagil Forest ahead of schedule!"

Shao Qian stabbed the last goblin to death, and the points of the Purple Moon Mercenary Group changed from -174 to -172, but the gap with Sirius still did not shrink much.

Su Mo nodded noncommittally, as if he didn't care about losing 50 points.

Four hours ago, he finally persuaded Shao Qian to get in touch with Ao Xue, who was far away in the Alliance Army.

Unsurprisingly, the appearance of the points leaderboard and additional clues from Sirius made Ao Xue and others panic. Su Mo wasted some words, reluctantly appease Ao Xue, and with Ma Tao's help, successfully persuaded the Ziyue mercenary group to agree to his own adventure plan - they had to agree, otherwise Ziyue would have no chance of winning. .

Afterwards, at Su Mo's suggestion, Ao Xue and others did not move, and under the premise of ensuring their own safety, they dragged them out of the camp until the end of the 'pledge meeting'. As for Su Mo and Shao Qian, who were far away in the land of the sand dunes, they did not go further, but went the opposite way and returned to the goblin's territory: Tagil Forest with the unconscious Bailey.

Returning to Tagil Forest is also a helpless move. After all, if they continue to go deeper, they will not only face the more powerful orcs, but also encounter the pursuit of the super-powerful blood elf Druid. In the unfamiliar and difficult land of the dunes, the two of them have a very slim chance of keeping Bailey and surviving successfully.

Second, it is naturally unwilling to make trouble;

After the ranking list appeared, Shao Qian realized that Zhan Hu, who had lost two chances of resurrection like them, still had more points than them.

Fortunately, the gap between the two sides was only 9 points. In order not to be deducted 50 points in the first point tally, as soon as they returned to Tagil Forest, Shao Qian couldn't wait to find the traces of the goblins, trying to kill a few to save the points. gap.

It's a pity that the goblins are no better than the orcs. They are not only cunning but also timid. Most of the patrols are in groups, and the two of them don't dare to take the risk of sneak attack. Within four hours, the two of them worked hard to kill only 10.

An even more irritating situation appeared. The points of the Zhanhu Mercenary Group also rose by 20 points within five hours!

Shao Qian didn't believe that Zhanhu's points were obtained through quests. Eight out of ten, nine out of ten, like them, also entered Tagil Forest ahead of schedule.

After the first point tally, Shao Qian, who was unwilling, watched Ziyue get another 50 points deducted. Not only did the gap with Sirius reach an astonishing 274 points, but there was also a difference of nearly 60 points with Zhanhu.

"If you don't think about it, 50 points will definitely be deducted after 5 hours!" Looking at Su Mo with a calm face, Shao Qian hated that iron was not steel, "Su Mo, don't you have a lot of ideas? Can you think of a way? You and Ziyue are grasshoppers on a rope now, and you won't be able to live after Ziyue!"

Without Shao Qian's reminder, Su Mo also knew how difficult the situation Ziyue was facing right now.

According to Su Mo's original plan, the Ziyue Mercenary Group will change its camp after the oath-taking meeting. It is no coincidence that it is just five hours away from the swearing-in meeting at this moment. At that time, Ziyue will not only lose 100 points of switching camps, but also have a high probability of deducting 50 points from the leaderboard. Under this situation, the difference between Ziyue and Sirius will expand to a terrifying 524 points!

How can the huge gap of 5 head points be erased so easily?

Tricky is tricky, but Su Mo is not omnipotent. Before the alliance army entered Tagil Forest, they really had to resign themselves to fate.

Of course, if there is no way to do it, it is not always the case. For Ziyue, the only advantage they have is goblins - as long as they kill enough goblins, they can even directly kill the goblin leaders and elders. It is not impossible to surpass the Zhanhu mercenary group with poor points.

This is clear to both Su Mo and Shao Qian. However, to be clear, Su Mo did not recommend doing so.

First, the goblin elders and the leader are not vegetarians, and only relying on two people to take a risky attack, the chance of success is not high, and it is even possible to take their own lives; secondly, even if they have the ability to kill the goblin elders and Chief, Su Mo does not recommend doing this either.

The reason is very simple. The goblins who lost the elders and leaders will no longer have the slightest power to stop the pace of the alliance army, which is very detrimental to Su Mo's next plan.

"Perhaps, we can start with Zhanhu."

After pondering for a moment, Su Mo suddenly smiled and said, "Since there is no way to get higher points, then take down all the points of Sirius and Zhanhu!"

Guiding the enemy to make mistakes is a better, faster, and more convenient method than racking your brains for points. In fact, most loot dungeons do this.

Hearing Su Mo's words, Shao Qian's eyes lit up and quickly asked, "Is there any good way?"

"The method is not very good, but Sirius must be caught, and Zhanhu has to eat this secret loss."

The plan provided by Su Mo is very simple, so that Zhanhu has to conflict with Sirius, knowing that there is a punishment...

The border of the Tagil Hills, where the three major guild alliance troops are stationed;

The sky was getting dark, and there were only three hours left before the 'Pledge Conference'. After Che Junmin completed the task, he returned to the camp with a worried expression.

Two hours ago, Su Mo and Ao Xue spoke again and told them their plans for Zhanhu and Sirius.

The plan provided by Su Mo is not very subtle, but Sirius, who ranks high in points, will definitely be hit. It's not so much a plan as it is a conspiracy - a way of doing things in return.

Ke Lao once put Ziyue into a situation that is neither embarrassing nor embarrassing through the register, while Su Mo used the same conspiracy to make Zhan Hu have to suffer this secret loss.

The solution he provided was very simple: share the true identity of the protagonist Beren with Sirius.

With the strength and arrogance of Sirius, Zhanhu and Ziyue were not taken seriously at all. Especially at this moment, they have the advantage in points. After learning Beren's true identity, they will definitely act for more 'potential'.

In this way, they will have a head-on conflict with Zhanhu.

"Will this be too risky? Sirius is not stupid, will they believe it? Also, we betrayed Zhanhu, they will not be reconciled. If the angry Zhanhu unites with Sirius, wouldn't we be more trouble?"

This is Ao Xue's concern, but Su Mo doesn't think this will happen, "No need for Sirius to believe it completely, as long as there is a possibility, they will try it."

As for the combination of Sirius and Zhanhu?

Hehe, not to mention the huge 'potential' in his hand, it is impossible for Zhanhu to give up in vain. Even if they are willing to share, Sirius is not necessarily willing to cooperate with them.

Taking a step back, it doesn't matter if the two sides reach a cooperation. In the slaughter scenario, cooperation with suspicion and caution is even deadlier than outright hostility!

The person responsible for spreading the rumors is Cha Junmin. He doesn't even need to have direct contact with Sirius, he just needs to spread the 'rumours'.

Unsurprisingly, less than an hour after the rumor spread, Sirius made a new move. Cha Junmin, who was in charge of surveillance, did not dare to neglect, and quickly retreated quietly before Sirius found him.

"Zhanhu, like us, is at an absolute disadvantage in points. They must be reluctant to reveal the 'resurrection mechanism' to Sirius."

Inside the tent, Ma Tao frowned and said, "If nothing else happens, Zhan Hu will most likely make some concessions and compromises on the 'situation'. At that time, Sirius received a warning from the system, plus Zhan Hu's concession, ten The eighth.ninth meeting is over, at least there will be no more chaos before the oath meeting."

Ao Xue nodded and agreed with Ma Tao's statement, but still worried: "They must be able to guess that we did the ghost... Sirius doesn't care, I am afraid that Zhanhu will not be reconciled after suffering a secret loss, and his main goal is to focus on on us."

Although according to Su Mo, even if Sirius and Zhanhu reach a cooperation agreement, they are not afraid, but Ao Xue is still worried. No way, who made the current situation so unfavorable for Ziyue?

Ma Tao yawned carelessly and said indifferently, "Let's take a step by step, the big deal is that the fish will die and the net will be broken in the end!"

After becoming an official player, Ma Tao had already made up his mind to die - it's just that sooner or later.

"That's all it takes."

Ao Xue sighed, then turned to Che Junmin and said, "There are still three hours before the pledge ceremony. We can't pin all our hopes on Su Mo, we must act!"

Che Junmin nodded solemnly. He knew what Ao Xue meant by 'action'—before switching camps, he gave Sirius the final blow at the swearing-in meeting!

After that, the four discussed the swearing-in meeting for nearly an hour, until the assembly horn sounded, and they left the camp together...

[System prompt: The blood elf Druid has reached the land of the sand dunes. At the same time, the half-orc army in the land of the sand dunes is heading for the Tagil Forest. Please complete the task as soon as possible;]

When prompted by the system, Su Mo was checking the ranking list, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth after seeing the latest changes in the ranking.

Points leaderboard:

First place: Sirius Mercenary Group 50 points;

Second place: War Tiger Mercenary Group - 165 points;

Third place: Ziyue Mercenary Group - 174 points;

Countdown to Statistics: 02:09:11

Unsurprisingly, Su Mo's conspiracy worked, and Tianlang and Zhanhu were deducted 50 points at the same time.

The only regret is that after being punished by the system, Sirius did not rashly choose to kill to earn the lost points, but stopped cautiously.

"What a pity, why didn't they fight?" Shao Qian sighed with regret.

Su Mo didn't know if it was okay or not, "Naturally, I am reluctant to bear the 'aura of the protagonist'."

After being warned by the system three times, not only will a large number of points be deducted, but they will also be forcibly expelled from their own camp. At this moment, it is only the last two hours before the pledge meeting. Sirius, who has the advantage of the "protagonist halo", is of course unwilling to risk chaos.

"That's fine, at least we know that there are no reliable wise men in Sirius."

Otherwise, you will definitely take the opportunity to understand the resurrection mechanism.

Of course, there are 'wise men' in the Sirius Mercenary Group, but the wise men in Su Mo's eyes are obviously not the same as the general public. Shao Qian glanced at him suspiciously, then gritted her teeth and said, "I don't know about others, that traitor is very insidious!"
