I'm bad, but players love me

If countries are not allowed to fight each other, then who would have the time to study how to fight a war?
"Report, Captain!" A figure quietly appeared behind the captain, and with a heavy voice, he reported with his head lowered, "The noble lady...she's dead..."
"That's all." The leader sighed silently, as if this sigh could release the heaviness and powerlessness in her heart. She didn't turn around, still gazing at the boundless sky, her eyes revealing a depth and confusion.
She murmured softly, with a hint of helplessness and desolation in her voice, "It's gone, it's gone..."
To be honest, after seeing that divine power was just such a thing, she no longer felt that there was much hope of winning this battle.
The most powerful thing about "divine power" is when people have imaginations about it.
She recalled ELO's previous setbacks, and a chill welled up in her heart. Perhaps it was all just a deception set up by the enemy to paralyze them. And they, lost in this illusion, fell into a deeper crisis.
The leader slowly closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
The wise choice was obvious: continue the fight or retreat.
Her voice trembled slightly, but she still gave the order firmly: "Notify the entire army, retreat..."
However, what responded to her was a cold pistol, pressed against her back.
Since the other party didn't kill me immediately, it means that I am still useful.
The leader froze, "What... do you mean?"
"Everything is for ELO. Please surrender immediately." The voice of the man behind was very calm, and it was obvious that this decision was not made on impulse.
"How many people have rebelled?" The captain's heart sank to the bottom.
From the moment the supervisors were killed, she had anticipated betrayal, but she hadn't expected the shadow of betrayal to now loom over the entire legion.
It was quiet behind him, no one responded, everything seemed to have fallen into deathly silence, so quiet that only the captain's own heartbeat could be heard.
If the feeling of the gun muzzle had not remained on his back, the captain would have really doubted whether the person behind him had just left.
Seeing that the other party had no intention of answering him and had no intention of killing him and letting the entire Third Regiment completely collapse, the leader knew that what the other party wanted was to let as many people as possible survive the Third Regiment.
So, she gently raised her hand, then slowly raised it upwards, indicating that she had no intention of resisting, and said in a deep voice: "I surrender."
Then she just turned around, and the person behind her didn't make any move.
When he looked up, he saw that the person pointing the gun at him was the soldier who had hurried over to inform him of the death of the captain of the supervision team.
The opponent was still wearing the uniform of the Corey Army, but a blood-soaked bandage on his arm was particularly eye-catching—it was not a battle scar, but the symbol of ELO.
The smoke of gunpowder of this war finally came to an end with the collective rebellion of the Third Regiment of the Kori Army.
The captain originally thought that she would not live for more than a few days, but after waiting for a long time, all the surviving members of the supervision team collapsed one by one, and she was still breathing here.
Such anxious days continued until Ah Dai arrived.
[Hello.] Ah Dai's voice broke the long silence. She casually picked up a chair and sat down leisurely.
Ah Dai had deliberately locked up the leader of the Third Regiment and the rest of the supervisory team together, and then made her watch as these people were dragged out and killed one by one, which scared her out of her wits.
This sounds useless, but it is quite interesting to see the captain calculating when he will die every day and his terrified expression.
"Ella doesn't know what happened to the Third Regiment yet and we can't get in touch with them. I think you should be able to report on their behalf, right?" Ah Dai asked casually, a playful smile on his face.
When the team leader heard this, he immediately felt that he might still be able to survive, so he hurriedly nodded and agreed repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes!"
Can you read?
"know."
"Then please submit a first draft. Be sure to describe the betrayal of the three regiments in great detail and excitement, so that the reader can feel as if they were there firsthand. 】
[Also, the fall of the noble was a meticulously planned spectacle—a perfect combination of human bombs and sniper rifles, resulting in her unprepared fall. This point should also be carefully portrayed in the manuscript, allowing readers to feel the wisdom and power of our ELO.]
If the RPG matter can be kept secret, then keep it secret. This is already a rare "big guy" in ELO. How can the secret weapon be made known to everyone?
But after hearing what Ah Dai said, the team leader was immediately confused. This... is such a high requirement?
Chapter 126: No Way to Reverse the Situation (Edited)
In the following days, the commander of the Third Regiment was in a state of despair. Although he did not suffer much physical injury, his heart was more miserable than if he had eaten three hundred kilograms of coptis.
Ah Dai didn't kill her, nor did he torture her, but it was more torturous than killing her.
She wrote an article and Ah Dai asked her to revise it.
He wasn't offering any serious advice, but simply pretended to read it twice, then let out a long, nonchalant sigh, followed by a "Revise it a bit, what do you think?"
What do I think? I think it's OK. If it doesn't work, just go ahead and kill me!
She hadn't had a good night's sleep for three days. She was dreaming about how to write the manuscript to meet Ah Dai's elusive requirements.
It turns out that players do have some bad tastes.
After forcing the team leader to revise the book for over thirty times, Ah Dai pretended to smack his lips and casually said, "Well, I think the first version is the best for me."
These words were like a bolt from the blue, instantly shocking the leader to the point of fainting. She swayed, as if all her strength had been drained from her. She stumbled twice, her face instantly turning pale as paper, as if she had heard something unbearable.
But what could she do? She could only swallow the blood in her throat that was about to burst out and said with a forced smile, "As long as it can satisfy the adults, that's good enough."
[Thank you for your hard work these past few days.] Ah Dai took the initiative to step forward and said.
The team leader was a little caught off guard by this sudden praise. She subconsciously waved her hands hastily, a smile on her face, "No, no, this is what I should do."
[Okay, not too hard, right?] Ah Dai nodded slightly, and the words he said made the leader's heart suddenly chill. Then he turned around and took out a pile of manuscripts - the first version of the content that was about to be released.
[Did you see the signature at the bottom of the manuscript? I won't make it difficult for you this time. No need to sign, just put your fingerprint on it.]
This is totally unnecessary, but Ah Dai just wants to have fun.
The group leader looked at the thick stack of manuscripts, feeling a pang of bitterness. "Is it possible you're deliberately torturing me?" "The selections have already been made, and they've even been printed."
Moreover, with such a thick stack, I’m afraid you won’t even be able to see your fingerprints after pressing them, right?
Although she was upset in her heart, she still took the pickaxe with a smile on her face and said, "Okay."
But as soon as Ah Dai left, the smile on her face suddenly collapsed, and her expression became more wrinkled than crying.
……
Although the presence of handprints is a bit redundant, the manuscript carefully written by the team leader is still very valuable.
Ah Dai not only delivered it to Ella, but also scattered it at the place where the two armies were fighting, and even further scattered it throughout the city of Kori. She wanted everyone to know that even nobles with divine power were not difficult for them, ELO, and they could kill them at will.
The news of the noble's death, along with the raging flames of war, swept all the way to the very center of Cori City - the aristocratic district that was once shrouded in a sacred aura.
Once the myth of the nobility's immortality was overturned, everything changed. The glory and honor of the past, baptized by the flames of war, vanished without a trace like dust blown away by a strong wind.
There was even a joke in the Corey Army:
Where did it hit?
After this game, I'll be at my house!
Isn't your house at the back?
Yes!】
"Just a few days of failure, and you're retreating just like that?" Ella's voice echoed in the room, filled with anger and unwillingness.
Her voice was like the thunder before a storm, shaking everyone's heart. Her sharp eyes swept across everyone's face, as if searching for the slightest bit of strength to support her to continue fighting.
The nobles looked at each other in bewilderment, no one daring to meet Ella's sharp gaze. Finally, it was Fati who stood up.
She understood Ella's reluctance and anger, but she also understood that retreating at this moment was to preserve strength so that they could come back again in the future.
Fati took a deep breath, walked forward, and gently patted Ella's shoulder. "Lord Ella, this is the unanimous opinion of all the nobles."
As soon as she finished speaking, Ella's scarlet eyes were like two burning flames, staring straight at Fati's face.
"Are you going to use human hearts to suppress me too?" Ella's voice was low and hoarse, like a roar squeezed from the depths of her throat, filled with endless pain and struggle.
Everyone outside is saying that Yun Shuo can defeat Ella because he relies on the hearts and minds of the people.
"Of course not." Fati softened his voice, but still looked Ella in the eyes firmly and forcefully, and continued, "We are only retreating temporarily to conserve our strength. When the time is right, we will fight back. Our primary goal now is to ensure that we can still retain our strength."
Ella's eyes gradually softened as she listened to Fati's words. She knew she couldn't change the nobles' decision, and she also understood that Fati's words were correct. She took a deep breath and suppressed the resentment and anger in her heart.
"Retreat." Ella said in a deep voice, each word as clear and resolute as solid ice crystals.
As soon as he finished speaking, the nobles present, whose originally tense nerves were loosened like the strings of a guitar.
They all breathed a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their shoulders. Not daring to delay even a bit, they hurried back to pack up.
……
Although the central area of Koli City is magnificent, it is definitely not a good place to defend and difficult to attack if a war breaks out. The nobles had long ago taken their belongings and hurriedly fled this prosperous place that was about to become a battlefield.
While the nobles were fleeing in panic, the ELO army, like an unstoppable torrent, easily occupied the empty city.
The land had changed hands quickly and efficiently. The army rested in the city, preparing for the upcoming battle, which was not yet completely over.
Since the nobles left, the servants naturally followed. But there was still one person who was left here alone.
Where servants once roamed everywhere, now only these vibrant, full-bodied flowers remain. In the end, they are the only ones guarding Setash.
Yun Shuo looked at the flowers that were in full bloom. It seemed that they were the only ones silently telling of the former prosperity of this place.
His eyes quickly swept through the flowers, and finally stopped on the figure of Setaishi, who almost blended into the sea of flowers.
"Ella and the others have retreated, why don't you retreat?" Yun Shuo's voice echoed in the empty garden, breaking the dead silence.
"Yes, they are all gone." Saitaishi didn't look at Yun Shuo, but just sat quietly at the table in the garden, as if all the troubles in the outside world had nothing to do with him.
His voice was so soft that it seemed as if he was speaking to himself. After a bleak smile, he slowly turned his head to look at Yun Shuo.
Looking at the bloodstained, blackened face, Saitaishi softened his expression as if he were treating an old friend. He chuckled and said, "Oh, you really are in such a mess."
"Of course I'm not as idle as Lord Sai Taishi." Yun Shuo shrugged and replied.
It's not a nice thing to say, but Setaishi is not annoyed.
It seemed that after so many days, Ella had smoothed out all his edges and arrogance. He just waved to Yun Shuo and motioned him to sit down.
Everything was arranged exactly as it was when the two of them first met, except that their moods were completely different now.
It was Setash who was in a superior position at first, but now he has been completely defeated.
What was placed on the table was no longer the black tea that was placed to please others and reflect the elegance of the nobility, but a large plate of snacks that looked quite childish - bear-like biscuits with some purple jam in the middle, which made people's mouths water just by looking at them.
Satesh's hands kept reaching into the plate, and he kept stuffing snacks into his mouth like a starving ghost.
"You have a good taste." Yun Shuo said as he sat down on the chair without any courtesy and casually reached out to take the snacks, not considering himself an outsider at all.
But Saitaishi took the plate towards himself, still holding a biscuit in his mouth, and said vaguely: "It's already this late, please leave me some food for myself."
Yun Shuo tilted his head and watched the other person stuffing food into his mouth piece by piece. He looked like he was about to choke to death, but he was still trying hard to swallow it.
Setash frowned as he swallowed the biscuit paste in his mouth. He casually wiped away the remaining crumbs at the corner of his mouth with his fingers and took a breath. "It's been here for generations. In the blink of an eye, this city of Kori has been named after you, ELO."
He suddenly burst into laughter, pointing his finger at Yun Shuo and shouting, "You won! But...how could it be you who won? Hahahaha, Ella lost, she actually lost!"
Yun Shuo was silent for a moment and then said, "Without you, we can't win..."
This may sound like kicking someone when he's down, but Saitaishi did do a lot of "good things".
After hearing this, Saitaishi froze. He did not continue what Yunshuo said, but stared at the stack of cookies on the table with his eyes half-focused.
He was clearly not dead or blind, but he could no longer see what the biscuit looked like. He could only vaguely make out that it was a yellow mass.
After a long pause, he whispered, "This sweet was my favorite when I was little, but I could only pick up a piece or two, or even just some crumbs, from the floor when my sister got tired of it and threw it away."
"At that time, I just thought it was the most delicious thing in the world, and I always thought I would eat as much as I could in the future. But when I really killed my mother and all my relatives, and really came to power, and could really eat this thing at will, I found it tasteless."
When he said the word "boring", he deliberately emphasized it, his eyes fixed on Yun Shuo, "You see, people are cheap. Once they get something, they won't cherish it anymore. You, ELO, can't escape this fate either."
There are many people in this world who sneer at power and those who are high and mighty, but this is only because they have not had the chance to truly taste the power.
Even if the nobles left the center of Kori City, even if they would leave Kori City forever, their souls would not. The ghosts of the nobles would forever float over Kori City, ready to drive ELO to become the next batch of them.
Yun Shuo's fingers tapped lightly on the table, making a rhythmic sound. He said calmly, "But you still like to eat now."
"Yeah, I still like to eat it." Saitaishi seemed unaware, and picked up a piece of exquisite biscuit, put it to his lips and chewed it gently, muttering to himself, "I still like to eat it..."
There was a barely perceptible bitterness in his voice. "I still like this sweetness, because..."
Setash paused for a moment, looking out the window at the blazing sun. His voice became a little erratic as he spoke, "If, I mean if, if I had truly formed an alliance with you from the beginning, would this be the outcome?"
But before Yun Shuo could speak, he continued, "How could that be? You killed so many nobles. Nobles are born guilty, so how can I be an exception?"
As soon as the topic opened, he seemed to have an endless stream of resentment, directed directly at Yun Shuo, "Look, you're also responsible for my situation. You keep spouting nonsense like 'equality', but do you even include me in this 'equality'?"
