A Realistic Mount & Blade Game

Shen Mu's previous self had some impression of the Green Leaf Group.

After all, daring to subtly compete with the Diesel Company within the Balihe Street area, although at a disadvantage, they had maintained this for a year or two without being wiped out, and instead became more prosperous, which demonstrated the strength of the Green Leaf Group.

When he saw these slender, tall figures, carrying quivers and longbows, with pointed ears and obvious elven features, these races from the Spirit Realm.

He immediately understood that these must be wood elves from the Green Leaf Group.

After both sides introduced themselves.

Shen Mu also understood why Zhang Song, who was also slender and tall, and whose soul-level resonance had already begun to show some pointed ear contours, would offer friendly advice.

Slowly turning around, Shen Mu looked at the towering, massive concrete city walls behind him, and his expression changed slightly.

"Each Black Tide's arrival accelerates the decay of Blue Star's buildings?"

"Yes," Zhang Song nodded.

"This is… somewhat surprising to me," Shen Mu wasn't unaware of this.

However, due to his previous self's and his own subconscious confidence in modern technology and architectural standards on Earth, he hadn't given it much thought.

Zhang Song understood this as well.

Therefore, he explained, "This is a change at the rule level, stemming from the essence of things." Speaking, Zhang Song paused slightly, his tone becoming more complex: "After all, even if the rules of the fantasy side are shattered, the powerful power of mystics contained within our former technology-side rules is still extremely strong."

"Blue Star's technology-side rules are indeed weaker than the fantasy-side rules that possess mystics…"

Shen Mu didn't doubt this much.

That's just the way it is.

Otherwise, when the rules of the fantasy side descend, whether it's the undead rules or the spirit realm rules.

From the current situation, they have all overwhelmed the rules of Blue Star's domain.

Just look at how miserable Blue Star people live now, having to rely on the Spirit Realm marks produced by the Spirit Realm rules to have some ability to survive.

These fantasy-side rules.

Are stronger than the sci-fi side rules that Blue Star possesses!

"So, esteemed Mr. Shen Mu, if there's a chance, please demolish these native Blue Star buildings and replace them all with Spirit Realm buildings."

Zhang Song sighed slightly as he spoke: "After all, Blue Star buildings, when eroded by the undead rules, will not only decay and collapse but also breed undead monsters."

"I will seriously consider this suggestion," Shen Mu nodded; this was common sense.

The only thing Shen Mu hadn't expected.

Was what this person from the Green Leaf Group named Zhang Song said, that the undead rules would actually corrode Blue Star buildings.

"No wonder so many Blue Star buildings collapsed in my predecessor's memory."

Shen Mu also noticed the anomaly in his heart: "I used to think they were destroyed by undead monsters; I didn't expect it was due to excessive corrosion by the undead rules."

In the future, I really have to pay more attention to this key information.

Thinking about before.

I put the castle and stronghold in the apartment, thinking it was safe.

Now, combined with Zhang Song's reminder.

It's really a bit chilling!

"Thank you very much for your kind reminder," Shen Mu was now much more polite to Zhang Song.

After a moment of contemplation, Shen Mu asked: "Are you here to represent the Green Leaf Group and form an alliance with me?"

"That's right," Zhang Song immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Shen Mu take the initiative to bring this up, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Shen Mu, perhaps you've just become a Spirit Realm Lord and don't understand the dangers of having a Spirit Realm mark, becoming a Spirit Realm Lord, and being able to summon many Spirit Realm buildings and Spirit Realm followers at any time."

"Dangers?" Shen Mu noticed the word in Zhang Song's words.

"Yes, dangers," Zhang Song said seriously: "There is also competition between Spirit Realm Lords. You may also be aware that summoning Spirit Realm followers requires Spirit Realm mark fragments, let alone becoming a Spirit Realm Lord, the number of Spirit Realm mark fragments required is a terrifying number."

Before Shen Mu could finish digesting these words, Zhang Song once again solemnly reminded him:

"Moreover, after becoming a lord, the lord's core you possess also needs the pious prayers of us Blue Star humans, offering spiritual power, to continuously obtain energy and continuously maintain the combination of Blue Star rules and Spirit Realm rules."

"You have become a lord, so you will absorb more ordinary people to pray and offer their spiritual power to charge the lord's core."

"This will undoubtedly create a competitive relationship with the Diesel Company's beastman tribe, this territory."

"Our Green Leaf Group relies on the complex jungle environment and the superb archery skills of the wood elves, as well as the beastmen's lack of effective siege methods, so we can barely hold on."

"Mr. Shen Mu, you are a newly born human lord, so the Diesel Company will covet you."

"Moreover, as long as they can swallow your lord's core, it will be a perfect upgrade for the Diesel Company's beastman tribe, enabling them to summon more tribal buildings and beastman followers to descend into the Diesel Company."

"If we don't unite, then this Diesel Company without a moral bottom line…"

"Will really attack us!"

Zhang Song analyzed the dangers they faced to Shen Mu in a very serious tone.

Especially knowing that Shen Mu, as a new human lord, might not understand the matter of lords devouring each other's cores to grow, he clearly stated it.

After all, there's no other way.

If the Diesel Company really swallowed Shen Mu's lord's core.

Then it would definitely usher in a wave of strength surge.

At that time.

The Green Leaf Group, which was already struggling, would definitely be swallowed by the Diesel Company after its strength surged!

This is a relationship of interdependence.

Therefore, this is why the Green Leaf Group, after learning that a new human lord had appeared to the east of the Diesel Company.

Was so anxious to send him over to first analyze the pros and cons of the matter clearly.

To first determine the cooperation.

To establish a defensive alliance!

[Ding! The task system has captured an event!]

[Task issued: Alliance.]

[Task introduction: The wood elves from the Green Leaf Group have sent their mission to form an alliance with you to jointly resist the next enemy—the Diesel Company.]

[Task conditions: You can choose 'Agree to ally / Refuse to ally' to handle different approaches.]

[Condition reward ① Agree to ally: You agree to ally and form a covenant with the "Wood Elf Village." The "Will of Nature (Fragment)" from your chest will be pleased and bestow upon you a new skill.]

[Condition reward ② Refuse to ally: You refuse to ally and politely decline the idea of cooperating with the "Wood Elf Village." You will receive +1 permanent morale for "Mount \u0026 Blade: Warband - Pendor Prophecies" troops.]

Just as Zhang Song was speaking, Shen Mu was of course listening attentively.

However, the dialog box that appeared in front of him attracted Shen Mu's attention even more.

Shen Mu's expression changed slightly.

Especially when his gaze swept over the content in the dialog box, regarding the rewards for this temporary task.

"Is there even a need to choose?"

A smile appeared on the corner of Shen Mu's mouth as he looked at Zhang Song in front of him and the 10 wood elves with surprise in their eyes.

He proactively extended his hand: "Of course, I agree to ally and jointly resist the Diesel Company!"

Shen Mu had already offended the Diesel Company.

The two sides were already in an antagonistic state.

The battle had already broken out.

Now, being able to have an external aid and also obtain a reward regarding skills.

Shen Mu was of course willing!

"This… this is really a wise choice, Mr. Shen Mu, our Green Leaf Group greatly appreciates your choice."

Zhang Song was slightly stunned.

He hadn't expected that Shen Mu would agree to his alliance request as soon as he finished speaking.

Originally, when he came, Zhang Song had planned to showcase the archery skills of these wood elves.

Which was equivalent to showing the strength of the Green Leaf Group.

Now it was easily completed.

Making him a little unaccustomed to it.

Just as Zhang Song was about to say something, his expression suddenly changed.

"Hmm?!"

Not only Zhang Song, but also the expressions of the 10 wood elves behind him changed.

Their gazes all turned to Shen Mu's chest.

'Thump!'

Right there, Shen Mu's chest had just throbbed violently.

With some kind of joy.

Some kind of comfort.

And some kind of affirmation of fluctuation.

When Shen Mu's chest throbbed, it permeated the power of this fluctuation.

Allowing Zhang Song, who had already completed a partial soul-level resonance with the wood elves and could sense special powers like them, to blurt out subconsciously:

"This is… the Will of Nature!?"
