What was worth mentioning was that Guhan also saw Andreevich and Harry Chang Ruo in the conference room. It seemed like they had already held a flag-planting ceremony. They seemed to have successfully arrived at the battlefield in the Star Shuttle.
As for the remaining sword-bearers led by Ashima and Ladia who were responsible for providing support to Planet Suzaku, they were nowhere to be seen. They were not in the conference room either. Could it be that they had not returned to the human settlement?
Guhan could not help but worry. There were more than ten sword-bearers at the Famed Sword level, and there were also the elites of the elites like Ashima and Ladia.
Just the fact that the Saintess of Jerusalem had gone missing was enough to cause an uproar in Jerusalem.
"Everyone is here!
Let's begin! "
A man and a woman were sitting in the middle of the conference table. Guhan knew the man as well. He was the leader of the Yaoguang Sword Sect, Yaoguang. His name in Shanhai Pass was also Yaoguang. Therefore, there was no doubt that he was the leader of the Yaoguang Sword Sect in the game.
Guhan heard a total of three familiar names in Shanhai Pass. They were Hongyu, Yaoguang, and the guardian of the Green Dragon Emperor Star, Miaobi.
It seemed like the three friends of the Yaoguang Sword Sect were in Shanhai Pass. Guhan could not help but let his imagination run wild.
He recalled that the Yaoguang Sword Sect had become famous in the game three years ago. Could it be that the main force of the Yaoguang Sword Sect was actually the sword-bearers in Shanhai Pass?
This was not surprising. In order to maintain the boring activities of the sword-bearers in Shanhai Pass, the Sword Committee had spent a lot of effort to complete the scientific research and transmit the network signal to Shanhai Pass through the quantum amplification device.
However, because the Zhou Tian Star Formation was filled with the power of the stars, the quantum communication signal was very bad. They had to set up a set of relay equipment every few guarded areas, or else the network would not be able to run smoothly.
That was why Guhan could not contact the personal terminals of other people in the occupied areas because the quantum relay equipment was destroyed. After the various guarded areas were reclaimed, the network would return to normal, and Guhan would be able to enter the game.
Alright, back to business.
Ever since the meeting began, Lilith, the guardian of the Sun, had been talking non-stop. Yaoguang remained calm and listened to Lilith with a smile. He had no intention of interrupting her.
After more than 10 minutes of narration, Lilith finished her speech, and the entire conference room was in an uproar. The sword-bearers of the Sun Star and the Moon Star were arguing like a bunch of scoundrels, regardless of the fact that they were fellow swordsmen and the dignity of each other.
As an outsider, Guhan had no interest in participating in this quarrel. He was just silently thinking about what Lily had just said.
There was only one reason why they were arguing like this, and that was how they were going to recover the areas that the Sun had lost and how they were going to rebuild the Sun's defense network.
As mentioned in the previous chapter, there were only slightly more than 1,500 sword-bearers left on the Sun Star who could fight. This small number of people could not even form a basic defense network on the Sun Star.
The situation on the Moon Star was much better. There were nearly 5,000 sword-bearers who could continue fighting.
According to the news from Yan Jing City, the sword spirit of Gui Hall was trying to build a support team of 6,000 sword-bearers to support Shanhai Pass.
However, the problem was that it would take at least a week for such a huge team to be built. Within this week, they would have to rely on the remaining forces in Shanhai Pass to restore the defense network of the two Sun Stars.
Therefore, Lilith made it very clear to Yaoguang that she wanted to borrow a batch of sword-bearers from the Moon Star to fill in the gap of the Sun Star.
This request was actually understandable. If the Sun Star was destroyed, the existence of the Moon Star would be meaningless. Therefore, the guardians of the Moon Star, including Yaoguang, agreed to Lilith's request in principle.
However, the problem was that Lilith was asking for an exorbitant price. She wanted to borrow 2,000 sword-bearers from the Moon Star in one go. This number instantly caused an uproar among the guardians of the Moon Star.
The Sun Star originally had 1,500 people. With the addition of these 2,000 people, they would have a lineup of 3,500 people. However, in that case, the Moon Star would have less than 3,000 sword-bearers left. They had fewer people than the Sun Star. No matter how they thought about it, this was unacceptable.
Lilith spoke with conviction in response to the objections of the Moon Star's sword-bearers.
The reason why there are so many people left on the Moon Star is because the Sun Star withstood the attack of the Wu people's main force. The sacrifice of the guardians of the Sun Star was exchanged for the survival of the Moon Star's guardians. Therefore, the Moon Star should compensate the Sun Star.
Moreover, if the Wu people made any strange moves in this week, the Wu people would definitely attack the area guarded by the Sun Star.
Because the entire defense system of the Sun Star had been destroyed, the various defensive facilities were also gone. It would be very easy for the Wu people to attack.
Therefore, from a safety point of view, it was necessary to strengthen the defense of the Sun Star.
Hearing Lilith say this, the people of the Moon Star immediately expressed sarcastically that if their own people had not held back the most powerful Great Sorcerer, the Xingtian, the Sun Star would have been destroyed long ago. How could it have lasted until Lady Ling returned? Therefore, the credit of the Moon Star was actually the greatest.
The people of the Sun Star immediately said that the people of the Moon Star were shameless. They said that the people of the Moon Star were simply dawdling. It was obvious that two-thirds of the Wu people that were used to besiege the Moon Star had retreated, but the people of the Moon Star did not even realize it. They were still foolishly confronting the Sun Star. They were simply the world's number one idiot!
If it was not for the guardians of the Sun Star fighting to the death and being invincible, the entire Zhou Tian Star Battle Formation would have been destroyed long ago.
When the people of the Moon Star heard this, they were immediately dissatisfied. They mocked the people of the Sun Star for lying. The fact that the Solar System was able to defend itself was not the credit of the people of the Solar System, but the credit of Lady Ling!
When the people of the Sun Star heard this, they were immediately enraged. If they had not delayed long enough, even if Lady Ling had come, the eye of the Sun Star's formation would have been destroyed.
Therefore, the people of the Moon Star immediately said that since Lady Ling's role was not important, they wanted Lady Ling alone.
As long as Lady Ling's area was transferred to the Moon Star, the Moon Star would immediately allocate 2,000 sword-bearers to the Sun Star.
F * ck!
The people of the Sun Star immediately expressed their rejection. They said that Lady Ling was already their Vermilion Bird Imperial Star. For the next three years, she would be a member of the Sun Star. The people of the Moon Star could forget about it.
Therefore, this dispute gradually evolved from a dispute over the number of people to a dispute over the ownership of Liunian Ling. The sword-bearers of the Sun Star and the Moon Star were arguing that they wanted Liunian Ling to be in their own area.
The reason was very simple. Liunian Ling was too powerful. As long as such a great god was around, unless the Wu people gathered the power of more than eight Great Magi, they would not be able to defeat Liunian Ling … However, the problem was that three Great Magi had already died in the hands of Liunian Ling, and two more Great Magi had already died in the previous battle. Therefore, the Wu people now only had seven Great Magi left. They could not even gather eight Great Magi, and it was absolutely impossible for them to defeat the side with Liunian Ling.
Whoever had Liunian Ling in their hands was equivalent to having a life-saving trump card. Therefore, Liunian Ling naturally became the focus of the two sides.
Seeing that this group of people was about to start fighting, Yaoguang, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke.
"Lilith, how many sword-bearers do you have left?" Yaoguang asked this question as soon as he opened his mouth.
"About … I think … I think … I think there are … 48 people left …" Lilith hesitated for a long time. In the end, Hongyu, who was next to her, gave her the final answer.
Before the war started, the Sun Star had a full field of 183 sword-bearers. Now, there were only 48 of them left, and 125 of them had died on the battlefield.
"To maintain the basic defense network of the Sun Star, you need a total of 68 sword-bearers. Am I right?" Yaoguang asked again.
"Yes …" Lilith replied in a drawl. Everyone in Shanhai Pass knew that maintaining the basic defense network of the Sun Star required 68 sword-bearers. There was no need for him to confirm it. He was just pretending.
"How about this? First, I promise to provide you with 20 sword-bearers from the Sun Star. That will make up the basic 68 sword-bearers. What do you think?" Yaoguang said in a deep voice.
"Are you kidding me … You want me to not even have a reserve team?
If one of these 68 people dies, won't my whole army collapse? "Lilith immediately retorted.
"I know. I will provide you with reserve sword-bearers later. Now, I will confirm the minimum number of people from the Sun Star to support you. Is there any problem with that?" Yao Guang said in a tone that did not allow for rejection.
"… Forget it … I admit defeat!" Lilith felt helpless. She could only confirm what she had just received.
"Does anyone think there's a problem with my suggestion?"
Yaoguang asked the other sword-bearers present. No one answered. Clearly, they agreed with Yaoguang's suggestion.
After all, this was the basic number of sword-bearers needed to maintain the defense network of the Sun Star. This was something they had to do.
"How many ancient sword-bearers do you have left?"
"… 1,492."
"You need at least 3,023 people to maintain the defense network. I will give you 1,600 ancient sword-bearers. That will make up for that number. What do you think?"
Next, Yaoguang decided on the number of ancient sword-bearers according to the Famed Sword-Bearers method.
In fact, adding all of this up, Lunar Star had obtained a total of 1,620 sword bearers. Although it was still a little short of her requirement of 2,000 sword bearers, it was already a very good result.
After all, Lilith knew that it was impossible for Sun Star to give her 2,000 sword-bearers. Lilith had reached her bottom line by being able to maintain the defense network.
Although the other Famed Sword-Bearers were not satisfied with this number, it was necessary. After all, the Sun Star had suffered too many casualties. They had no choice but to send so many people over.
"The number of people that Sun Star will send to you is decided. Next, let's discuss the distribution of the new reinforcements!"
At this point, Yaoguang looked at Guhan, Andreevich, and the others who were sitting at the end of the conference room.
"What's there to discuss?"
Lilith frowned. "These people were originally arranged to support the frontline of the Sun Star. Of course, they are all my people. Is there a need to distribute them?"
"Of course there's a need to redistribute them!"
Yaoguang smiled elegantly. "Her Highness Ming's list clearly states that these are reinforcements for the entire Shanhai Pass.
These reinforcements have always been distributed by the Sun Star and Moon Star. Are you going to go back on your word, Lilith? "
Therefore, the focus of the conference shifted to the fight for Guhan and the others.
