821 Calming Down Allies (1/2)
Chapter 821 – Calming Down Allies
Ouyang Shuo was still a little worried, so he asked, ”If they all take out their reserves at the same time, will it affect us?”
Meng Zhida said, ”It definitely will have some impact but not much. After a year of development, we have a lot of reserves and do not rely on them anymore.”
”What if hundreds of mid and large-sized guilds remove their reserves at the same time?”
Ouyang Shuo had learned about the influence of Silver Hand. Since they could influence the guilds to stand on their side, they could naturally make them take out their investments.
When Meng Zhida heard that, his face also became solemn, ”If that's the case, we will enter a shaky period. However, if we prepare for it in advance, it will not affect our foundation.”
Ouyang Shuo nodded, finally relaxing, ”In the future, the Four Seas Bank will focus on scattered customers. Only by setting our roots deep in the masses can we sit in an unbeatable position.”
”Yes Monarch.”
It was time for the Four Seas Bank to change.
Ouyang Shuo waved his hand, ”Go prepare for it and take the necessary precautionary measures. I estimate that once the dust settles, they will start to act.”
”Understood, I'll take my leave.” Meng Zhida turned around and left.
Ouyang Shuo continued to stay in the reading room and waited for the final results of the Satellite City battle.
************
2nd month, 26th day, 3 PM.
Since the siege started till now, the situation slowly became clearer.
The numerous sacrifices finally awakened the mid and small-sized guilds from their dreams. Looking around, they were left with very few brothers and sisters, sending a chill down their spine.
After the players died, their dropped equipment laid all over the ground.
Many of these items were despawned by Gaia before players could even pick them up.
The only ones still fighting were the guilds in Dali, Jianye, and Xianyang. Even Yimeng Pavilion and Shadow Alliance gave up after paying a heavy price.
At 4 PM, Silver Hand finally faced a setback.
Even under heavy assaults, the Snow-War Rose Mercenary Group in Jianye and Blood Evil Mercenary Group in Xianyang stood tall and did not fall, letting Silver Hand learn of the strength of giants.
Helplessly, Silver Hand could only give up. They had no choice. Even if the guild leaders they controlled were willing to attack, their members did not want to die for nothing.
The guild leaders in the game could not decide the fate of their guild members, especially in Earth Online where the game had an effect on reality.
No one was a fool.
The only one that was barely holding on was Qingfeng Pavilion.
During the first stage, Qingfeng Pavilion had suffered heavy losses and was also betrayed by their allies. The sieging guilds all saw hope, so they grit their teeth and continued to fight.
It seemed like Qingfeng Pavilion was unable to hold on.
When Ouyang Shuo saw that, he had a depressed look. There were many things that were not under his control.
At 6 PM, an Imperial City Notification sounded out.
”Imperial City Notification: Congratulations Xiao Nianying for leading the Xiao Alliance to break through the Satellite City guarded by Qingfeng Pavilion, obtaining the rights to be the guardian. Congratulations.”
...
The moment the notification sounded out, the world was in an uproar.
The unassuming Xiao Alliance had jumped up and become the greatest dark horse.
At this point, Silver Hand's goal of breaking apart the Shanhai Alliance-Guild Alliance had basically succeeded.
Only two guilds of the guild alliance had absolute control in the China region.
What about Silver Hand?
They had seven out of nine.
When night fell, the Guardian Guilds were basically set and there were no more accidents. Gaia was extremely efficient, immediately announcing the ruling details and underground world opening rules.
Based on the rules, although the Guardian Guild had the right to own the Satellite City, they could not reject players from entering. As a result, players could freely move in and out of the Satellite City.
However, Gaia would not bother about whether or not they could rent houses or shops. The guardian groups could use this to solidify its relationships with their allies to make themselves undoubted ruler in the imperial city.
The underground tunnel was an actual tunnel set in the central square. As long as one went down the steps, they could enter the mysterious underground world.
The entrance was open to all players and the guardian group had no power to stop players from entering.
