Chapter 151: Chapter 149: ’Battle of the Factions’ (Helmsman’s Additional Update)The players who suddenly attacked him might be members of the Revolutionary Army mixed among the Regular Army. By killing them, Hui Shuhang had ensured the Contribution Value was credited to him.
If he could make good use of his high status within the Regular Army to harvest the heads of the Revolutionary Army, he could firmly secure the top position on the faction leaderboard.
He noticed that, at this stage, the players who chose the Revolutionary Army had relatively high Contribution Values. Considering the current situation of the Revolutionary Army, he almost understood why.
The Revolutionary Army must be akin to an army that rose in rebellion, while the Regular Army was his current faction. Engaging in acts of killing and plundering, the Revolutionary Army could quickly acquire Contribution Values. As for the Regular Army... for now, he could only see this peaceful and tranquil square, unaware of any other means to acquire Contribution Values.
If he could devise a method to mobilize the Regular Army to attack the Revolutionary Army...
"Ding-dong!"
He heard a new system notification again:
Before Su Ming’an even had time to check the public chat, Hui Shuhang had already approached him.
"It looks like it’s time to clear out some trash from the guard squad."
Her gaze was indifferent as she looked at the bodies being dragged away, her wine-red eyes intensely focused on him, "Are you alright? I’m very sorry, it was our oversight... Didn’t expect someone to infiltrate at this juncture..."
"Are these people who attacked me from the Revolutionary Army?" Su Ming’an tested.
"Yes, just a bunch of disorderly thieves," Hui Shuhang replied. "After escorting you to the laboratory, I will go and report to His Majesty, clean up these well-hidden rats. You don’t have to worry about your safety, we will protect you thoroughly."
Su Ming’an did not respond.
...Protect me, and then kill me again on the tenth day?
From his experience in the last loop, he knew what these people were thinking.
But on this journey, he had seen many people greeting him with faces full of respect; he knew he was perhaps a respected figure, and if he were to be killed, it wouldn’t be done overtly. He wanted to know exactly who harbored ill intentions towards him.
In theory, his status as the Ruler meant that characters of the same faction should at the very least start off being "friendly" and not just want to kill him for their personal desires.
Therefore, if not for personal desire, it must be for the sake of...
He observed Hui Shuhang’s expression, which she masked well, appearing calm and unemotional. But he had seen the regret and apology in the depths of her eyes before—she had also wanted to save him once.
...Those were her words from the previous loop.
He always suspected that the "His Majesty" she spoke of wanted him dead.
If he could meet this Majesty and forcibly increase his favor, he might obtain more information.
He followed Hui Shuhang, noting the instance chat that had just been activated was swarming with messages:
Su Ming’an watched these people chat.
He learned that many players’ initial roles were things like "Regular Army Guard," "Revolutionary Army Member," "Regular Army Square Attendant" and the like, and they were all currently blindly following their own troops.
He saw roles like squad leaders too, but not many.
He looked at his interface, which showed that Lv Shu and the Healing Series player had joined the same instance as him, but the private chat was blocked, so he couldn’t message them to find out their whereabouts.
The instance chat continued, but now the conversation seemed to have changed:
Su Ming’an no longer looked at the instance chat.
He had chosen not to speak for now and hadn’t met up with Lv Shu and the others. Lv Shu and his team had limited abilities, and even if they met up, it wouldn’t change anything and would only make the situation more chaotic.
He now knew—in the square, among the many originally loyal guards, many players with different intentions had mingled. They had a variety of roles and missions and might engage in behaviors that the NPCs couldn’t predict.
Along the way, he had already seen a guard suddenly shout, "Number One Player, where are you! I want to be your follower—" and then someone dragged that guard away.
