Chapter 78 The Dwarfs' Treasure [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

Xu Jiang's statement that "Lawyer Lin's opinion should be taken as the primary one" stunned the other three people.

But soon, Li Hong and Zhao Yanbin understood what it meant.

Thinking to myself, Teacher Xu is indeed very thoughtful. This is equivalent to directly naming a team leader. Obviously, this team leader cannot be given to either Li Hong or Zhao Yanbin, because the other person will definitely not listen or cooperate.

Similarly, that young Chen Wang doesn't seem like someone who can shoulder great responsibilities.

That leaves only two people.

Xu Jiang himself and that Lord Lin.

In other words, the fact that Xu Jiang recommended someone surnamed Lin shows that Xu Jiang knew the other party's strength and was ashamed of his own inferiority, which is why he gave the other party this decision-making power.

I must say, Teacher Xu is really steady.

Instead of vying for fame and fortune, we respect objective facts and let whoever is stronger lead the team. This also avoids the internal power struggle between Li Hong and Zhao Yanbin over command.

It can be said that with just this first move, Teacher Xu demonstrated his experience and shrewdness.

The fact that they were able to build Dawn Fortress and attract so many survivors to live around it shows that they have some skill.

Lin Mo naturally saw the depth of Xu Jiang's arrangements, and he also approved of them, because even if Xu Jiang hadn't given him the command authority, he would have taken it anyway, because no one else had the ability.

This wasn't Lin Mo being arrogant; it was because he knew how to play the otherworldly map "The Dwarf's Treasure," and arguably, no one was more suitable than him.

But one of the five people couldn't understand it and immediately expressed his dissatisfaction.

"Why should we listen to him? Who does he think he is?" Chen Wang said directly.

It's clear that this is how the other person usually speaks. To put it kindly, it's straightforward and doesn't hide anything. But to put it another way, this hothead is overly arrogant and self-important, and he doesn't even try to hide it.

"Chen Wang, I think I've made myself clear. When problems arise, everyone can discuss them, and anyone can offer suggestions. As long as we agree, we can work together. But if we disagree, we can't just stand still. Someone needs to make a decision. I believe Lord Lin Mo can take on this responsibility. Do you have any opinions? Speak now." Xu Jiang was also annoyed by the young man's arrogance and asked directly.

Seeing that no one was speaking up for him, Chen Wang on the other side thought for a moment and reluctantly said, "If none of you have any objections, what objections could I possibly have!"

However, he still muttered to himself, "Anyway, I might not listen to him; I only trust myself."

Xu Jiang acted as a mediator between the various parties. He whispered to the other three, "This Chen Wang is indeed powerful. He's established a cemetery territory, right over at the Three Pagodas Garden..."

"7

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo's heart stirred slightly.

"The Three Towers Garden, isn't that the location of one of the exits of my underworld? Moreover, it's cemetery territory. If it falls into my hands, it can be connected to the underground city. Then, the surrounding area, both above and below ground, will be under my control. Besides, I remember there's a magic spring and a teleportation portal in the Three Towers Garden..."

""

In Lin Mo's mind, the area where the Three Towers Garden is located is very good and suitable for development, especially the magic spring water, which can not only restore magic power, but also double magic power for a period of time.

Lin Mo understood all too well the value of doubling magic power.

That represents battery life.

"I wish he could be even more arrogant!" Lin Mo chuckled at this moment.

In short, the five-person team was assembled. Xu Jiang had obviously checked the strength of the other four members and found no problems. So he took out the map of another world.

[Activate the Otherworld Map: The Poison Dwarf's Treasure?]

Map Level: 2

[Upon activation, you and your team will be teleported to an alternate dimension. You can return only after completing the designated objective.]

[Remaining number of entries to the current map: 1/1]

[WARNING: Death in the otherworld map is considered a true death.]

Do you want to enter the map immediately?

Xu Jiang did not hesitate and chose "yes".

The parchment emitted a dazzling golden light, which surged from the paper and enveloped the five lords like a tide.

The next second, they entered the otherworld map.

The light faded, and the five people arrived at a valley.

They all looked around at the same time. Even the most arrogant Chen Wang had this quality; otherwise, he wouldn't have become a lord.

In Xu Jiang's words, this man may be arrogant, but he is indeed capable and has a strong military force.

Lin Mo made a preliminary judgment after just one glance: the area they were in was a relatively safe valley, surrounded by low hills, and not far away was a fortified castle belonging to a stronghold.

Upon seeing this, the others' eyes lit up.

.

Li Hong, in particular, was almost the first to rush over, followed closely by Zhao Yanbin and Chen Wang, who reacted quickly.

Xu Jiang didn't move.

"Stop!" Lin Mo shouted immediately.

Li Hong was taken aback when he heard this. Although he frowned and was somewhat unconvinced, he still controlled his wolf mount to stop. Zhao Yanbin did the same. Only Chen Wang seemed not to have heard anything and continued to rush over. When he found that the territory castle was empty and there were no guards, he directly occupied it.

Seeing this, Lin Mo frowned deeply, looking extremely angry.

He rode over on his skeletal warhorse. By this time, Chen Wang had already begun to check the troop strength stored in the castle, and it was clear that the guy looked quite smug.

"Didn't you hear me say stop?" Lin Mo asked at this moment, his tone unfriendly.

Li Hong and Zhao Yanbin were equally annoyed. They were also staring at Chen Wang, thinking to themselves that this little brat was too unruly. He dared to hog the castle before they had even taken it over.

Even Xu Jiang, who is usually a nice guy, frowned at this moment.

Chen Wang, however, didn't care at all: "Why should we stop? Besides, we're all in a team. If I take the spot, it won't affect you guys, right?"

In short, I'm right, I did nothing wrong!

"What if this is a trap? Your actions will endanger us all." Lin Mo started to stir up trouble, doing so subtly and gradually.

"Isn't this because there are no traps? Not only are there no traps, but there are also plenty of troops to recruit." Chen Wang was like a hedgehog.

These words, once spoken, made Li Hong unable to hold back: "Even without a trap, what you did was still dishonest. We're on the same team, and our actions need to be coordinated. Besides, the absence of a trap just means you were lucky, it doesn't mean you did the right thing."

Chen Wang immediately retorted, "What's it to you? Stop your nagging..."

"7

"Damn it..." Li Hong was about to rush forward when Lin Mo pulled him back.

Having achieved his goal, he didn't say anything more to Chen Wang. Instead, he addressed the others, saying, "This should be the starting point of the otherworld map. Now, we're all in the same boat, so I must explain some rules to everyone."

"You can think of this otherworld map as a separate world. The first principle is that you can't take the territory and castles here out of the world."

These words were clearly directed at Chen Wang.

The latter wasn't stupid; he understood.

"What about the types of troops...?" Chen Wang immediately asked back.

"Those recruited normally can be taken out, but troops from this territory cannot be taken; they can only be used here!" Lin Mo interrupted the question, adding, "This is the second important rule I want to mention: giving such readily available troops at the starting point of the map means that a major battle is about to begin..."
