Chapter 251 The Compromise of the Pure Land
From the tomb guard, Lu Mo not only heard the story of Glory City, but also learned a truth from the game of chess that he lost to the tomb guard. It is not the chess player who really decides whether to win or lose, but the size of the chessboard and the number of pieces. .The reason why Lu Mo thinks this is all because the gravekeeper's chessboard and chess pieces are too weird, or extremely mismatched.

The chessboard used by the gravekeeper and Lu Mo to play chess still has a large area of ​​spare space after Lu Mo has played all the chess pieces.And the reason why Lu Mo lost in the end was because Lu Mo played all the chess pieces, and there were still many chess pieces that could be used in the gravekeeper's chess box.As a recreational game or a game of chess, it may seem very unfair, but as a true portrayal, Lu Mo feels that this game of chess is simply too real.

"Little friend, do you think it's unfair?"

The gravekeeper suddenly handed the chess box in front of him to Lu Mo. After Lu Mo took it, he found that the remaining chess pieces in the chess box were all white chess pieces.

"I don't think it's unfair. It's just that some people don't understand. Is there really no winner in this game of chess? Or is this game not over yet?"

"Little friend, since you already have the answer in your heart, why do you need to ask more?"

After the gravekeeper finished speaking, he picked up the teapot to refill Lu Mo's tea, and then he went back to his cabin with the teapot.Only Lu Mo was left sitting there without moving. Lu Mo looked at the chessboard in front of him. After a long time, Lu Mo picked up the teacup and drank it down. Then he bowed to the gravekeeper's wooden house, and then left .

When Lu Mo left the gravekeeper's place, he already understood the meaning of the gravekeeper's words.In fact, what Lu Mo played with the tomb guard just now was not chess at all, or chess was a kind of imagery, and the tomb guard was telling Lu Mo a truth.Just like the exclamation of the gravekeeper when he finished telling the story of Glory City, there is no true thought in history, but some eternal truths will remain.

Lu Mo felt that what the tomb keeper wanted to convey to him was something that could only be understood but could not be expressed in words. Lu Mo couldn't tell the reason, but Lu Mo did understand the meaning of the tomb keeper.It's just that Lu Mo has a way to verify whether he really understands it.The dispute between Sin City and Pure Land is Lu Mo's most practical opportunity for verification.

The dispute between Pure Land and Sin City is just like Lu Mo playing chess with the tomb guard before, except that the chess players are gods and city lords.The chess piece in the hands of the gods now has the Supreme Master who is the commander of the regiment in Sin City. At the same time, through the Holy See, it can also affect the supply of materials and personnel in Sin City.At the same time, the gods are still striving to open up new cities. This is not only a chess piece in the hands of the gods, but also an expansion of the chessboard.

The sin city side represented by the city lord seems to be at a disadvantage, but in fact the situation is not always the case.Although the Supreme Master is the commander of the regiment in Sin City, the city lord can still suppress it with authority, and now the ranger regiment is actually controlled by the city lord.Although Sin City is controlled by Pure Land in all aspects, Sin City is also against Pure Land. Once Sin City falls due to the restrictions of Pure Land, it will be Pure Land itself that will be unlucky in the end.

"I understand, I finally understand, it turns out that the city lord came up with this idea."

Lu Mo walked all the way back to the Corps camp, but he kept analyzing the current situation. When Lu Mo was thinking about how the city lord would counter the Pure Land, he suddenly understood a previous confusion.The biggest threat of the sin city to the pure land is actually that after the fall of the sin city, a large number of dragons will attack the military area, and even threaten the safety of the pure land itself.

Lu Mo has never understood why the city lord collects dragon crystals through Uncle Liang, and why he sends his men to throw dragon crystals into the dragon group. The city lord's seemingly aiding the enemy is actually creating a hole card.The dragon clan, a hostile existence that stands on the opposite side to humans, has become the last and biggest trump card in the hands of the city lord. The stronger the dragon clan, the safer the city of sin. The pure land must fully support it out of fear of the dragon clan's invasion. The city of sin, in order to let the city of sin be set in front of the pure land.

The greater the threat of the dragon clan, the more important it is to be able to resist the invasion of the dragon clan.Even if the gods want to build another new city, as long as the new city has not been built, the sin city will never be able to give up, and even the gods will take the initiative to help the city lord grow step by step, otherwise once the sin city falls, the dragons will directly attack the military area, even It is possible to break through the military area and enter the pure land area.

Judging from the current situation, it is impossible for the Pure Land to restrict the Sin City, because once the new city fails to be built, the Sin City will have fallen first. It's like shooting yourself in the foot with a rock.And since Lu Mo said that to Xichen before, it is obvious that the city lord will not passively wait for Sin City to fall.

The core issue in terms of sin city and pure land is the new city, but since the gods have already made plans, the establishment of the new city seems to be imperative.But Sin City will never sit back and watch the new city replace it. If Pure Land wants to continue building the new city, it must make concessions. Although Lu Mo does not know what conditions the city owner will propose, the compromise of Pure Land is basically an inevitable result.

Lu Mo rushed all the way back to the camp, and directly pulled everyone from Team 35, as well as Xichen and Wang Tong, to the empty field of the camp.Lu Mo asked everyone to pair up and practice confrontation.Although Lu Mo also knows that this kind of person-to-person offensive and defensive practice is useless in the actual battle against the Dragon Clan, but the days of the 35th team Ma Fang Nanshan are too long. Know what surprises will happen again.

There has been a famous saying since ancient times that people sweat more in normal times and bleed less in battles. The members of Squad 35 have cultivated for a long time before. Lu Mo is really afraid that they will not have much combat power left.As far as Lu Mo can see, these guys have not only healed their injuries, but everyone has grown fat to some extent. This really makes Lu Mo a little worried. Looking back, because of negligence, the gutter capsized.

"Captain, it seems to be a bit difficult. These furniture seem to be a bit heavy."

"Captain, what about the uncoordinated use of weapons and features?"

The few newcomers in Team 35 soon became overwhelmed. They were wearing protective furniture and had to use weapons and characteristics at the same time. This made the few newcomers who had been fighting only with their characteristics before completely unable to fight.Seeing their uncoordinated appearance, Lu Mo guessed that after using these equipments, not only did their combat effectiveness not improve, but their original combat effectiveness was greatly reduced because of their clumsy actions.

"Your current state, it is estimated that the mission may not be able to return. If you are really not used to the equipment I gave you, you can consider giving up, but if you decide to use it, I hope you can practice it well. Then go to the dragon to try your hand, remember the last time you said you were going out to fight the dragon? If it wasn’t because you couldn’t get out during the city defense phase, I’m afraid some of you have already gone to the southeast corner.”

Lu Mo loudly warned everyone under his command, especially Cheng Zhiqiang and the others. Although they were no longer rookies, it did not mean that they would not lose their lives during missions.The southeast corner of Sin City that Lu Mo mentioned is where the cemetery where the gravekeeper is located.

Since then, Team 35 has had one more task every day. Whenever there is free time every day, they will always go out in twos and threes to practice and compete.Even Xi Chen, who was equally idle and boring, once offered to confront everyone.It's just that after Xichen swung the handleless great sword with strange strength and pierced Populus euphratica's armor, no one dared to make gestures with her in fright.

Every time Xichen sees other people practicing offense and defense there, she always wants to give it a try. Fortunately, Lu Mo still has a certain understanding of Xichen. Under Lu Mo's suggestion, she uses Xichen to only defend and not attack. Taking turns to attack, Xichen once again joined the drill of attack and defense.In the scuffle between Xichen and the others, they all had their own gains.

The four people who joined after the 35th team unexpectedly practiced a four-person team-up offensive and defensive tactics during the siege of Xichen.This made Xichen, who could only defend but not counterattack, bear even greater pressure. In the end, under the pressure of a strong offensive, he finally succeeded in changing his thinking. A large sword with a handle and a split double-edged sword are used for defense.

Just as everyone was recovering and increasing their combat power, a piece of news about the compromise of the Pure Land spread like wildfire in Sin City. At the same time, the news about the new city that had been circulated before was also confirmed, which made everyone in Sin City excited. Surprised.It has been confirmed that the new city is not a rumor, but a military fortress city under construction.As for the prisoners who were not assigned to Sin City before, all of them went to Xincheng.

However, the city lord could not hold out in Sin City, and he notified Pure Land with his determination to break the net. In the end, the Pure Land side had to compromise. With the continuous spread of the news, the voice of support for the city in Sin City became louder and louder.Regarding the concessions made by Pure Land, Lu Mo didn't even need to inquire about it, he was already familiar with it.

The Pure Land side promised that all the prisoners who had been sent to Xincheng before the routine resupply would be transferred to Sin City, and at the same time ensured that the routine resupply in the future would prevent the practice of transferring people elsewhere without permission.At the same time, Pure Land officially released the news that the new city is under construction, and will listen to Sin City's opinions on this matter. At the same time, Pure Land requires that Sin City must properly dispose of all the dragons outside the city before the next routine replenishment. Sin City Removes the siege phase.

"It seems that the city lord won this confrontation, but will the pure land side really compromise so easily? And if the new city is really established, the city lord is sure that the pure land side will really not turn their backs?"

Lu Mo has a very clear understanding of the current situation. Both Sin City and Pure Land are afraid of beating wolves with a stick. Everyone has a weakness to be taken by the other side, but now there is a conflict of interest between the two sides.
