Chapter 741: 741
On the airship, people were idly wandering back and forth, full of curiosity about this item that only existed in the magical world.
“Which direction are we heading this time?” Tongtong asked Li Yao as she stood next to the helm.
Li Yao replied, “It’s been several days since we left the base, let’s go to the tank base first and see. We can get some tanks to bring out for sale.”
“Er, can tanks be loaded onto the airship?” Tianxiang paused before asking, “Aren’t tanks too heavy?”
“It’s alright, we can fly a little slower. These airships have excellent propulsion systems,” Li Yao explained.
Soon after, the airship flew directly to the tank base, only to find, unexpectedly, that there were no leftover tanks.
...
It turned out that the players that bought tanks, understanding their benefits, arrived early at the base. Every day, people were reserving tanks, causing a shortage.
When Li Yao arrived at the base, an Angel gave him a stack of silver military medals, which surprised him.
Then the airship took off again, this time without a specific destination in mind. A direction was randomly chosen, and they headed off.
“We should be reaching base soon. We’ve been flying for an hour now, and we finally encounter it,” the Guardian Angel stated, pointing ahead.
Li Yao nodded, “Indeed it’s a base, a medium-sized one. This will be the first batch for sale.”
“It seems that many teams are vying for this place, and if we intervene now, we’ll offend many,” the Unparalleled Demoness remarked.
“We’ve already offended quite a few people anyway, so it doesn’t matter. Also, the path to being first will inevitably upset many,” Tongtong said, clearly excited.
“Well, let’s just head over,” Li Yao turned the helm around.
The enormous hull of the airship slowly appeared in the players’ sight. At least hundreds of teams were here, assaulting the base.
The center of the area housed a tower-like position. Only when they were near did they realize that the building was, in fact, a gigantic plant.
Every once in a while, numerous demons would pour out from the tower. Additionally, the entity, resembling a black tower, would occasionally let out a sky-shaking roar.
At this point, hundreds of teams had almost reached the center. Teams nearby had even started fighting because, regardless of what kind of base it was, only one team could occupy it.
Moreover, the bosses guarding the bases would often drop a Colonel Medal, a temptation that was certainly not to be taken lightly. Therefore, fighting each other became the norm.
The arrival of Starfire’s airship immediately caught the attention of the players. They couldn’t decide which way to go and could only halt their attack, but each team remained wary of the others.

As the airship approached, all the players started to breathe heavily.
The airship was indeed intimidating. The enormous size of it made it appear like a floating fortress.
They could clearly see the loaded cannons on the three-layered deck, the launchers on the deck were equally daunting.
Although they had never seen the power of an airship, they could imagine what the result would be if these numerous cannons fired simultaneously. The muzzle of these cannons was significantly larger than that of tanks.
But when they saw Starfire’s banner and realized that the airship was controlled by players, they were even more shocked.
The airship slowly stopped at a distance from the base, silently hovering 200 yards in the sky. The figures of Li Yao and his team appeared on the deck.
All of them swallowed, knowing that if the airship wished to claim this base, they wouldn’t stand a chance.
“Friends, are you also here to seize the base?” a warrior asked loudly.
Li Yao glanced at him, quickly surveyed the crowd, and didn’t see any familiar faces, which relieved him.
Looking down, he said casually, “No, we are not here to snatch the base.”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. If the other party wanted to claim the base, it would have been real trouble.
“So, brother, are you asking for directions?” The warrior player continued, “If you want to find a large base, head southeast. The ownership of a large base there has not been determined yet.”
Li Yao nodded, “Thank you, friend, for the useful information. If you wish to buy this base later, I’ll offer you a 5% discount.”
The relaxed expression on the warrior’s face froze, “Your base, here?” he stammered.
Li Yao smiled, “What else do you think?”
“Damn, I knew it was bad news.” Swore a member from a team to the left of the warrior.
“We don’t know the power of an airship, but it must be extremely formidable. It’s more than enough to secure a large base, so why do you want to fight with us small guilds for these negligible gains?” the warrior frowned.
“Of course we’re going to the large base, but a medium base is a bone with meat too. Why not take it if we can?” Li Yao pointed to the base, “Now, I hereby declare that I’m auctioning this base. We accept military medals as payment, and the highest bidder wins.”
Hahahaha…
Everyone burst into laughter, sneering at Li Yao.
The first team to laugh at Li Yao spoke up again, “You’re such a fool. The base is unowned now, and you actually want to auction it off. Whoever buys it is a fool. Does this base belong to you? Almost fooled me.”
“It didn’t belong to me initially, but since I’ve spotted it, it’s mine now,” Li Yao replied, “This is the second call for bids. Please place your bids, folks. If you let this pass three times, we’ll no longer sell the base.”
“This is just hilarious.”
“Is this guy mentally ill? He’s not fully awake yet.”
“Our Paladin Guild of Holy Fire has set our eyes on this base. You should know the name of our guild. If you know what’s good for you, get lost now.”
Li Yao’s gaze turned cold as he replied nonchalantly, “Paladin Guild of Holy Fire, sorry, I haven’t heard of it before. However, out of all these teams, you’re the only ones with loose tongues. This makes you the perfect example to others.”
With Li Yao’s words, a ground-to-air launcher on the deck roared into life, firing off a rocket with a burning tail.
“Damn it, defend!” the leader of the Paladin Guild of Holy Fire turned pale.
Although the distance was over 300 yards, for a cannon shell fired at high speed, this distance was too close. Agile professionals with teleportation skills would be able to dodge, but it was impossible for the short-legged ones to do so.
Teams around were cursing while dodging.
The opposing team was frantically building up magic shields. The melee players were acting as human shields for the frail long-ranged players. Meanwhile, a colonel in their team, a Paladin, cast the Holy Shield spell, holding up the shield and hovering above the team.
The high-speed shell hit the Paladin with a huge impact, causing him to fall straight to the ground.
Then the shell exploded. A white flash dazzled, followed by a deafening roar.
Everyone saw players flying high into the sky amidst the flash of light, screaming in the air. But most turned into a Soul White Light, their in-game avatar killed.
After the explosion, the ground around where the shell hit was all in ruins, at the center, there was nothing but scorched earth…
