Chapter 361
Five days passed in the blink of an eye, and there were only more than 30 bases who were finally invited to send missions to the capital, and the other bases were either unable to come or ignored the invitation.

In the past five days, Zhou Xiaoning also visited the capital.Although the current capital retains the area within the Fourth Ring Road, because there are ten bases guarding the periphery together, there is no sign of disaster or catastrophe in the capital, and ordinary people still live a life similar to the original. Probably in the whole of China, only the capital can continue to maintain this kind of peace and tranquility.

It's just that I don't know how long this calm can last.

Although the four great families seem to be harmonious on the surface, in the world, they all have plans to annex the other three parties.The Zhao family is the strongest, followed by the Wang family. The difference in strength between the two is not very big. If the Zhao family fights against the Wang family, even if they can win, they will only end up with a serious injury in the end. On the contrary, it will be cheaper for the rest Two families, so the Zhao family and the Wang family will not do anything before they are fully prepared.

As the weaker two of the four great families, neither the Sun family nor the Qian family can compete with the Zhao family and the Wang family, so the two of them chose to form an alliance. In this way, they will have the strength to compete with one family. .

It can be said that today's capital is maintained by this delicate balance.This relationship is very fragile, and it only needs a strong enough external force to pluck a little, and the tight string will break.

And as one of the few forces qualified to be an "external force", in the past five days, people from the four great families have frequently bothered him.In the end, Zhou Xiaoning couldn't take it anymore, so he simply closed the door to thank the guests, and even if he went out, he had to use the transformation technique to change his appearance first, so that he calmed down a little.

But some things, what should come, still have to come.

On the fifth night, the welcome dinner was held as scheduled, and Zhou Xiaoning was naturally on the list of being invited.In addition to letting everyone get to know each other, this dinner is also a time to stand in line.Of course, it is a strategic alliance in name.

Don't underestimate such a strategic alliance. You must know that since everyone present has the ability to reach the capital across multiple regions, it is completely feasible for all parties to work together to open up a commercial road and exchange what is needed.After all, not all bases can go to other worlds to obtain resources like Two Realms City. Each base has its own specialties, but also has its own shortcomings. If long-term trade can be formed, sell your own specialties and buy your own If it is lacking, it will greatly promote the development of the base.

In addition, it was a time of calamity, and who could guarantee that their base would never be breached? In times of crisis, the benefits of having powerful allies came to the fore.It is precisely because of this that most bases are willing to form an alliance, but due to geographical location and various reasons for the distribution of benefits, the choices they make are different.

Today, there are only six bases left that have not clearly joined a side.Zhou Xiaoning didn't want to care about what the other five bases thought. Anyway, he would not join this kind of alliance that was almost a vassal and the four great families. He didn't reject the alliance, but wanted an equal status.

"Hmph, it's really boring."

Zhou Xiaoning was sitting in a remote corner with a glass of cocktail. He cast an illusion around the surroundings, which made people ignore him subconsciously. After all, he was really too lazy to accompany those people to flatter them.

"Why is my brother sitting here alone? But you don't think the dinner party is good enough?"

Sun Cheng walked over directly. After all, Zhou Xiaoning's knowledge of illusions only reduced his sense of existence, and he was not completely invisible. If anyone wanted to find him, they could find him.

This time the Sun family's move to recruit other bases was not going well. There were more than 30 bases in total, only six bases clearly expressed their willingness to form an alliance with the Sun family, and the attitude of the other three bases was ambiguous and ambiguous, as if they were still waiting and watching.

The situation of the Qian family is similar. There are only five bases that have actually reached a strategic alliance.

In contrast, the Zhao family and the Wang family are definitely the big winners this time, and both recruited ten bases to join their strategic alliance.

Seeing that the strength of Zhao and Wang's family increased sharply again, even if they joined hands with Qian's family, they could not be suppressed.He went looking for Zhou Xiaoning with the mentality of giving it a try. He always felt that Zhou Xiaoning and even his Two Realms City were not easy. If he could win them over, it would be a great help to the Sun family.

"It's too noisy over there, and I get a headache after staying for a long time. It's better here, it's clean."

During these five days, Sun Cheng took good care of himself and others. As the saying goes, don't hit people with smiling faces, it's fine if Sun Cheng doesn't come over. Now that he has found him, Zhou Xiaoning will not give him a cold look.

"My brother is very capable, and my brother admires him."

A gleam flashed in Sun Cheng's eyes. From the corner of his vision, he saw a person passing by him, but he walked straight past as if he didn't notice him.This is very abnormal, you must know that he is also the eldest son of the Sun family, the future head of the Sun family, when he sees him, he will greet him instead of turning a blind eye like he is now.

In this way, there is only one conclusion, and that is Zhou Xiaoning's fault.The people present were not weak, but Zhou Xiaoning was able to deceive so many people, which showed his strength.

"A mere illusion, nothing more than a trivial skill."

Zhou Xiaoning expressed his calmness. Compared with his big moves, illusion is really nothing to mention. Of course, if it is replaced by super illusions such as Tsukuyomi, Izanaki, and Izanami, then it will be different. Forget it.

"Hahaha, my brother is too modest. You make me feel ashamed of my brother." Sun Cheng laughed at himself, and raised his glass to touch Zhou Xiaoning at the same time.

After taking a sip of the wine, Sun Cheng put away the smile on his face, and decided to get to the point: "Brother, I will be frank with you. Today, among the four great families in the capital, my Sun family and the Qian family are relatively weak. We are not afraid of the Zhao family and the Wang family, but with the formation of the strategic alliance, the disadvantages of our two families are getting more and more serious, so I implore you, join our alliance, with your strength, we can definitely overcome us. Back to the city."

"Brother Sun, since you have said so, I will not lose face. But I hope we are in a cooperative relationship, not a vassal."

"Of course, once we form an alliance, we will all be friends. There will be no difference between up and down, you think too much."

Sun Cheng's words seem to be comforting Zhou Xiaoning, but both of them know that once the alliance is reached, the internal right to speak will still be determined according to their respective strengths. .

Zhou Xiaoning is very confident in the power of Liangjie City. Compared with the Zhao family and the Wang family, there may still be some gaps, but there is no problem in single-handedly fighting the Sun family or the Qian family. The Qian family came from a bad place.

"I hope Brother Sun can remember what I said today."

"So, you agreed?"

"Ah."

Zhou Xiaoning nodded and agreed.Anyway, Liangjie City also needs some allies. Instead of choosing those families that they don't know well, it is better to choose to form an alliance with the Sun family. Anyway, Sun Cheng can be regarded as his acquaintance. If there is any dispute, it will be easier to resolve it through him.

"That's great, let's go, let me meet the allies of the alliance."

Sun Cheng beamed with joy, and immediately pulled Zhou Xiaoning to the small group belonging to Sun and Qian.

At this time, the entire banquet hall can basically be divided into three groups, headed by the Zhao family, the Wang family, and the Sun Qian family.Surrounding them are representatives of the base who chose to ally with them.

But when Sun Cheng led Zhou Xiaoning past the Wang family group, he was stopped suddenly.

"Wait a moment."

Wang Hao originally participated in this dinner instead of the Wang family. He just persuaded four bases to join the alliance of the Wang family. Now the number of allies of the Wang family is the largest among the four great families. I believe that if he will go this time, he will definitely be rewarded by the head of the family. of.

And at this moment, the life card fragments on Wang Hao's body began to glow red.You must know that the fragments of this fate card come from Wang Yu's life card. After Wang Yu's death, his life card was split. Wang Yu's murderer.As long as the murderer is within [-] meters of the life card fragments, the life card fragments will glow, just like now.

"Wang Hao, don't be rude to our Sun family's guests!"

Seeing that Wang Hao stopped Zhou Xiaoning, Sun Cheng knew that there must be something wrong here, but now he represents the face of the Sun family. Zhou Xiaoning just agreed to join their Sun family's alliance. If Wang Hao makes things difficult for them at this time, let their Sun family Where will I put my face?

"Sun Cheng, I advise you to get out of the way. This is a grievance between our Wang family and this kid. Don't meddle in your own business."

A trace of disdain flashed in Wang Hao's eyes. He admitted that Sun Cheng's talent was very good. With the advanced exercises and training resources provided by the Sun family, he abruptly raised his strength to the fourth-order level in less than a year. .But at most, that's all. If you are not a chosen one, it will be difficult to break through the bottleneck. This is the tragedy of ordinary people.

"I don't care about any grievances between your Wang family and my brother, I will protect him today."

Sun Cheng stood in front of Wang Hao, releasing his aura and coercion towards him.

Wang Hao is also at the fourth level, no worse than Sun Cheng, and immediately released his consciousness to confront Sun Cheng tit for tat.

Seeing the commotion here, the Qian family, who had always been with the Sun family, hurried over and stood with Sun Cheng to show their support for Sun Cheng.

"Sun Cheng, Qian Hao, very good, today's is, our Wang family is endless."

Although Wang Hao is not afraid of Sun Cheng, Qian Hao makes him fearful. You must know that Qian Hao's strength has reached the fifth level, and the talent skill Zhenshan Palm is even more powerful. , I dare not say that I will win, let alone him, Wang Hao.

Although Wang Hao was disappointed by not being able to catch Zhou Xiaoning, it was a great achievement to find the murderer who killed Wang Yu.
