Volume 5: Protracted War Chapter 149: Distribution of Benefits (1)
There were six people in total, and the leaders of the four factions that controlled the real power of the "Resistance Alliance" were all present. In addition to Long Xing Tian Xia, Qing Wu Fei Yang, Qiu Shui Chang Tian and me, the Desert Eagle also brought Tian Xing. The "Witch Killing Union" pulled Qing Wu Fei Yang, who was originally excluded, in, and facilitated this private meeting of the four most famous undead wizards in "Tian Xia". On the one hand, they took the initiative to sell Qing Wu Fei Yang a favor and get closer to her. Without her cooperation, the so-called "not to trouble me about the issue of the Eye of Glory" would only be empty talk; on the other hand, they put on a "coalition" posture to further put pressure on me and "force" me to agree to cooperate. It is obvious that they intend to divide the positions of the four witch kings into one person, so as to avoid "unequal distribution of spoils" and some people taking more than others.
After meeting, we exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then got down to business. There was no need to elaborate on the high-sounding principles such as working together, helping each other, and strengthening the construction of the undead wizard team. I couldn't help but agree that the right to freely dispose of the "Eye of Light" was put there as a bargaining chip, but the key was the distribution of benefits after successfully killing the Witch King. If we couldn't reach an agreement on this, there would be no way to achieve cooperation.
Before that, I, the current Fourth Witch King, naturally have to introduce the relevant information of the Witch King in order to decide how to divide the benefits. There is nothing to hide. Once you come into direct contact with the Witch King or wear the Witch Crown, everything will be exposed. I will state everything I know. When I heard that the Fourth Witch King's "mental attack" actually consumed nearly two-thirds of my mental power while wearing the "Supreme Corpse Crown" and the "Dark Demon Robe", Qiu Shui Changtian and Tianxing were somewhat moved and exchanged glances involuntarily. Obviously, they thought of the attack of the "Witch Killing Union". If they rashly confronted the three Witch Kings, without being on guard, I am afraid that most of the undead wizards may be killed by the three more powerful Witch Kings. Of course, I will never disclose the existence of the "Blood Pool" and the blood lich Temur, so as not to cause trouble and arouse their "greed".
The problem of sphere of influence is easy to solve. If we can kill the other three witch kings, the four undead wizards can unify the corpse wizard tribe. We can re-plan and determine the division of territory. Everything is up to the four of us. Anyway, whether it is the first witch king or the fourth witch king, they have to personally subdue the corpse wizards one by one. Just pay attention to the number of corpse wizards in their respective territories to maintain a rough balance. I used the excuse that I have already subdued a large number of corpse wizards in the area where I am stationed now, and it is not easy to migrate. I want to divide my sphere of influence with that place as the center. Even though they have doubts, they can't find a suitable reason to object. At the same time, I also made public the existence of the "bottomless abyss", the second of the four forbidden areas, claiming that it is best to treat it as a public area, not under personal jurisdiction, and anyone can go in and explore it on their own - I just want to use the "extremely yin water" in the "bottomless abyss" to unlock the first seal of the "dead scepter". I don't want to and don't have the ability to dominate it. As long as it is convenient for me, I don't mind making it convenient for others.
Hearing that there was a second forbidden area, the "Bottomless Abyss", hidden in the territory of the corpse wizards, Qiu Shui Changtian and the others looked at me with a little more surprise. They had all been in and out of the "Valley of Yinfeng", and the existence of the third forbidden area, the "Hell Volcano", was no longer a secret and was known by more and more undead wizards. However, due to the extremely harsh natural environment there, it was unclear what benefits , so few people ventured into the depths. Now that the second forbidden area has appeared, naturally everyone is interested, and without exception, they all agreed with my suggestion that it should be a public territory that can be freely explored.
The ability and authority of the Witch King were clarified. These were actually minor issues. The most critical and difficult issue was how to distribute the four Witch Crowns and who would get them. The "Fourth Witch Crown" could increase mental power by 200%, which was twice as much as Qiu Shui Chang Tian's "Supreme Bone Crown". The three Witch Crowns above would naturally increase it even more. Combined with the powerful "mental attack", it was definitely a powerful piece of equipment that could greatly improve an individual's strength in the "Dead Soul Space". Whoever got the first and who got the fourth was a major issue of mutual interest. No one would be willing to show their "high moral integrity" and be willing to choose the worst one.
When it came to this question, the harmonious and heated atmosphere of the previous discussion disappeared immediately. We looked at each other and watched each other. No one was willing to speak first. Long Xing Tian Xia and Desert Eagle also roughly knew the interests involved. Since they were each involved in one of the cases, they were not qualified to be middlemen, so they could not say much. We could only negotiate and decide on our own. For a while, no one spoke, and the scene seemed a little dull.
But now I am no longer the rookie who just started playing the game. My reputation as the "world's number one necromancer" is growing day by day. If it is decided by strength, I should get the biggest share. Moreover, on the surface , joining forces to deal with the Witch King is just icing on the cake for me, but it is a necessary way for Qiu Shui Changtian and others to further improve their strength. Although I have the free disposal right of the "Eye of Glory" as a bargaining chip, I can't give up too much benefit easily. What I should fight for should not be given up.
"Since no one is willing to speak first, I will be the first to speak up. I will give up the 'Fourth Wizard Crown' and take over the position of the First Wizard King. Do you have any objections?"
"We, the 'Witch Killing Federation', are composed of thirty-eight undead wizards and have assembled more than two hundred thousand terror knights. We are definitely the main force in the battle. After the war, there will definitely be heavy casualties and our strength will be greatly reduced. We must be given a reasonable compensation, otherwise we really have no way to explain to the brothers who participated in it." Qingwu Feiyang remained silent. Qiu Shui Changtian glanced at Tianxing. He used the name of the "Witch Killing Federation" to increase the weight in his hand. Although he did not say it explicitly, his intention to oppose was undoubtedly exposed.
"To kill the three Witch Kings, more than 200,000 Terror Knights alone may not be enough, otherwise your 'Witch Killing Federation' would not intend to cooperate with me. From a fair point of view, the distribution of benefits should be based on the strength and contribution of the parties involved. In this regard, I should be no worse than anyone else. Not to mention the detailed information about the Witch King and the actual combat situation I provided before, which will not only help to deal with the Witch King, but may even save some players from harm. Moreover, I have the 'Fourth Witch Crown' and have a certain induction with the three Witch Kings. I also have a ghost royal family and dozens of ghost kings responsible for reconnaissance. There is no need to worry about alerting the three Witch Kings and falling into the ambush set by them." Upon hearing this, Qiu Shui Changtian and Tian Xing's faces changed. They had tried their best to block the news, and no outsiders knew about the battle situation, but I "pointed" it out. I guess they were very surprised and shocked by my ability.
