Chapter 410: Chapter 292: Fusion, the Change of Heaven and Earth! (4K)_2

“`

He thought.

Just as he did, a prompt message popped up.

“The Astronomical Society’s official has a new message for you.”

This message was precisely about the precise warning of the world fusion.

The time would be in twenty hours, with an error margin of no more than half an hour.

Aside from the time prediction, there was also a survival guide for avoiding various disasters during the fusion. These were all old topics of discussion.

Once the world fusion began, one by one, the cities of Xuan Country would sink into Eternal World. Whether for players or ordinary people, the task was to maintain order, stay within the cities to wait for support, and not venture into the wilderness on their own.

For the lords, it was imperative to avoid dispatching troops.

Even if there were troops outside, they should avoid staying in the wild as much as possible.

During the fusion, the territories of the chosen lands are the safest places. Even if spatial overlaps or folds occur, the areas protected by the territories’ forces would not be affected.

Secondly, stay inside the cities of Xuan Country. Do not go out, do not go out, do not go out!

Thus, a week ago, Mu Yuan had already asked Sophia to cease all inter-city operations—long-distance travel was becoming increasingly unsafe. Now, Sophia was in Baijiang City, buying materials and Remnant Souls from local players, which also meant that he, Lord Shepherd, was assisting in defending Baijiang City.

Lian Yue and several other officers took turns defending Baijiang City.

While he pondered, the Lord of Han Yue City looked over, pondered for a moment, and spoke, “After the matter of Lanxing concludes, come to the Pioneer Group.”

The Tai Xuan Alliance had three main organizations—Pioneer Group, Tai Xuan Liangyi, and the Players Association. The Astronomical Society could perhaps count as half.

Among them, the Pioneer Group had the fewest people, but they were elites.

This was a loosely structured organization; after all, each member within the organization was a high-level player or even a lord. The organization didn’t impose constraints on pioneers, and how one wanted to pioneer and explore, or hunt monsters, was entirely a matter of personal preference.

The main duty of the pioneers was to explore unknown territories and snipe and eradicate powerful groups of monsters.

In return, the pioneers could get the latest intelligence on undeveloped lands and pocket various treasures for themselves.

Whether considering future development or from the perspective of faction and geographic location, joining the Pioneer Group was the most appropriate for him.

Mu Yuan had no objections.

He was also aware that the Lord of Han Yue City preferred him joining the Pioneer Group.

Despite the lack of constraints on internal members, even the Exploration Generals couldn’t order or interfere with other pioneers. But the generals still wished for more manpower within their territorial areas.

Mu Yuan himself also wished to have a powerful leg to cling to.

So that in crucial moments, he could call upon strong allies.

For him, pioneering to the northwest was no different from pioneering to the northeast. The only thing was that proper pioneering was unlike his current short-term explorations; it meant truly delving into the wilderness, and it was normal to spend a month or two deep in the wild.

Therefore, there was the Pioneer Group.

Pioneers could use special items to contact other pioneers in ‘nearby’ areas to exchange information or rally teammates.

Such items, once Lanxing merged into Eternal World, became even more crucial.

“Then, that settles it.”

“Let’s talk in detail after the affair of Lanxing is over.”

The Lord of Han Yue City was, as ever, abrupt in his coming and going, leaving the assembly of promising lords looking at one another.

They watched the direction where Boss Han Yue had disappeared, then turned towards Tianyuan, eyes wide, speechless for a long while.

It was Jiang Luoxing who broke the silence after a moment.

“You, did Boss Han Yue personally invite you into the Pioneer Group?”

“Yes.”

“Isn’t it said that the threshold to enter the Pioneer Group is extremely high, and one needs several veteran pioneers to vouch for them?”

“Yes.”

“Then…”

Jiang Luoxing suddenly fell silent.

Though Big Boss Tianyuan was really cool, having been selected for the main competition of Dragon Court, but…

Alright, God Tianyuan is just that cool, an eternal deity.

…

The group didn’t continue on this topic but quickly turned back to the sad reality of Lanxing’s imminent fusion that was about to happen.

They were still worried.

So was Mu Yuan.

If he had a bunch of Legendary Realm Combat Power in his hand, he would certainly have no worries, but he didn’t. He couldn’t help but be concerned that in the last twenty hours, whether legendary powerhouses from outside might break in; whether The Land of Two Realms might appear next to his territory; whether space might suddenly displace, delivering a legendary monster right before him?

Such accidents were worrisome, and he had to be cautious.

(General Dead Bone in Tianyuan Territory gave a like from afar.)

Jiang Luoxing said, “Actually, what Big Boss Liu said makes a lot of sense, panicking is useless, as if our worrying could change reality. If by some one in a million chance we do encounter an accident, then we die, so be it.

“But we’re not that unlucky, let’s think about what we’ll do in the future. Guys… oh, and ladies too, feel free to come to Luo Xing Territory for some tea if you get the chance.”

Mu Yuan said he would definitely visit if he had the chance. Seeing Jiang eager for his attention, he said, “Alright, when I’m done with things for this period, I’ll treat you… I’ll treat everyone to a big meal.”

Wait a second, why does it feel like he just jinxed it?

Ptui, ptui, ptui!

Mu Yuan drank a few cups of tea that Jiang had paid for, then returned to his territory.

The world’s reflected image in the sky grew clearer and more oppressive, as if it were about to crush them, unable to breathe. One by one, the Area of Two Realms bubbled up like bubbles, appearing one moment and vanishing the next.
