Chapter 1086: Chapter 144: The Underworld Team of Dragon Well Tea

Annan assigned "daily tasks" to the players, which were quite engaging.

These tasks were distributed based on "single-family homes" — each day, players had to choose from a number of tasks equal to the "total number of floors in the villa + 1". The tasks appeared on the information board on the first floor of the villa, and the team that first logged on in each villa had the priority to choose.

The basic types of tasks included "assassination of nobles", "interception of elites", "elimination of grunts", "theft of important items", "kidnapping of important persons", and "destruction of evidence".

Indeed.

After gaining Yawen’s support, Annan slightly adjusted his plan.

It wasn’t just about fighting against the people sent by Ingrid from Dennisiowa, but rather, he intended to disrupt some of the "conservative forces" in Dennisiowa in advance.

Because later on, Annan would eventually establish a unified great barrier.

Winter was Annan’s own, and Noah belonged to Kafney and could be considered Annan’s; Selicia was Annan’s Hand of Winter, belonging to his "personal possessions"... Regardless of who would ultimately emerge victorious and win glory in "silver", they would still be indirectly controlled by Annan; The Holy Nation, needless to say, with five out of the seven True Gods directly supporting Annan.

As such, Annan could also preemptively treat the United Kingdom as his own property.

Annan here also knew... The King of Dennisiowa probably wanted to initiate a considerable large-scale civil war. The goal was to directly annihilate the pirate forces on Feld Archipelago — and possibly "unintentionally" and "carelessly" cleanse the local forces of Feld Archipelago.

During this process, those conservative forces, as well as members of the "advisory council" and "committee" tied to the interests of Feld Archipelago, would definitely cause trouble for the old king’s plan.

Annan could intervene at this time.

Stir the situation further and expand the chaos... Throw all the blame on Ingrid, and clear the obstacles for the ruler of this nation in advance.

Because this also clears the way for Annan’s own grand unification.

Because Annan named this large-scale event directly as[The Blood and Wine Chaos of the United Kingdom~The End of the Pirate Era].

By the time players lived in Dennisiowa long enough, they felt something was amiss... Combined with this event’s name, and the specific tasks players had to do.

Thus, quite a few smart players guessed what Annan was aiming to do.

"...You still don’t understand?"

Dragon Well Tea was somewhat helpless.

He simply completely ignored Husky’s protest, pushed away the flying chess that was about to lose in front of him,

And using the chess pieces designed by Husky, which had a Hogwarts style and seemed to move on their own, began explaining the situation to the others.

He first placed a white chess piece in the center of the table, solemnly saying: "This represents the King of Dennisiowa. It can temporarily be seen as a friendly force, a green-named monster."

Then, he surrounded the white chess with five purple chess pieces: "And these are the members of Dennisiowa’s advisory council who have conflicts with the King. These can be considered yellow-named monsters, not necessarily provoking outright, but can be eliminated if appropriate."

He then took out some light purple chess pieces, placing them far away: "The pirate forces of Feld Archipelago are essentially the dogs of these ’advisors’. These pirates are no good either and can be seen as red-named monsters, we should kill them when we can. They’ve raised some pirates to do deeds inconvenient for them, and by controlling the pirates, they boost their own authority.

"These pirates will plunder blackfire being transported and sold between the islands, and then hike up the price to sell to the civilians. Some of the profits naturally go back to the advisory council, serving as their ’power’ to suppress the King of Dennisiowa.

"And the unscientific ’heat transfer technology’ developed by Drest Flamelle was just an excuse to prevent blackfire from flowing to Feld Archipelago. This will undoubtedly significantly reduce the income of the pirates.

"But these advisors won’t sympathize with these peasants. They won’t reduce their demanded ’tribute’ for this reason—if they really did do that, it would imply their influence in the advisory council would drop.

"Money is very important. Once they can’t use money to attract allies at the next level of the ’committee’, or even affect the votes and proposals of the ’member council’, then allies might turn into rivals’ subordinates due to the opposition’s ’added money’.

"So these pirates will have to make up the difference themselves.

"They, of course, won’t acknowledge this loss—they’ll just find more money from under their own bootstraps.

"Which means, as long as this technology is publicized, or even without implementation... there will be immediate changes on Feld Archipelago.

"Either the relationship between the pirates and advisors deteriorates, or the relationship between the ordinary people and local pirates worsens. Regardless of what happens, it will directly break the previous political balance.

"This represents the ’Silver’ faction and the ’Bootlicker’ faction.

"The Silver side is because their captain entered Dennisiowa with us under the guise of Annan’s guards at this critical moment on the eve of chaos. As locals of Dennisiowa, they cannot ignore the situation at this time.

"So they will definitely come back - with the goal of protecting their captain. In this process, they would indirectly protect Annan... This means they are green-named creatures, and we are allies who do not encounter each other.

"As for Ingrid’s Bootlicker faction, they are specifically targeting Annan. They are red-named creatures. Most of the people here are members of the ’Commission’. There are also some from the ’Member Assembly’, or belong to the families of ’Advisors’, who can communicate with the ’Advisors’.

"She definitely hopes to assassinate Annan here... If that can’t be achieved, the least she could do is cause him a lot of trouble. Disrupting the political situation in Dennisiowa and blaming Annan is what they can do.

"During this process, the ’Silver’ family and the ’Bootlicker’ family will naturally clash. But that doesn’t matter... as long as pirates are being cleared out, as long as the Ingrid side doesn’t obtain solid evidence, all this chaos can be considered as the ’cost of the adaptation period’.

"What we need to do... is to kill all the red-named creatures before the pirates are eliminated and without exposing ourselves, mainly those nobles, Transcendents, Ritualists, Saints, and pirates charmed by Ingrid.

"Then, it’s to weaken the power of the yellow-named creatures as much as possible... those from the Advisor’s Council, the Commission; kill them if possible, but we must protect ourselves. Because the backlash from yellow-named creatures will be very severe, we absolutely must not expose our identities. If any evidence arises, destroy it immediately.

"After that, we need to protect the green-named creatures... although I think we probably won’t need to step in.

"Finally, it’s Annan’s plan—"

Longjing Tea chuckled lightly: "He is definitely planning, before the ’red-named creatures’ are exterminated, to get the King killed."

"...Huh?"

Sitting opposite him, Husky was startled: "Why would he do that?"

"That way, he can arrange for someone from the Silver faction to ascend. He could also shift all the blame onto our dear red-named creature Legion... and by using the excuse of clearing out red-named creatures, he can establish his authority, increase his influence, and use this influence to reform the United Kingdom."

Longjing Tea took a sip of tea and calmly said: "If I guess correctly, Annan is probably planning to unify the world.

"The first thing to do is to replace the rulers of various countries with his own people."

"...Since that is the case, what mission should we take on?"

Thirteen Spices couldn’t help asking: "What we do best should be the task of eradicating miscellaneous soldiers and kidnapping missions, right?"

Their team is composed of Lin Yiyi, a tank with some spellcasting abilities, Thirteen Spices, a relentless Soul Reaping Wizard, Husky, an Idol Wizard who can boost and heal and summon, along with Longjing Tea, a Decree Wizard specialized in interference and control.

Overall, it’s a team relentless against weaker opponents.

Thirteen Spices and Longjing Tea are both controllers, Husky and Longjing Tea can both boost, and both Lin Yiyi and Husky can heal. This is complemented by Thirteen Spices’ area of mental control over miscellaneous soldiers... it forms a team where the more there are, the less their health drops.

Moreover, with the attribute amplification of Husky, Lin Yiyi can finally use her iron rod to intercept bullets—this can also very well protect the three fragile mages behind her, preventing them from being sniped outside Thirteen Spices’ mental perception range.

The downsides are lack of damage output and mobility.

It can be said to be severely lacking in output—although Lin Yiyi can tank, fight, and output, increasingly approaching the style of a god-tier weapon master. But if she has to intercept spells and bullets for the mages, she cannot engage in close combat.

The only output is from the three mages, none of whom are good at dealing damage.

Longjing Tea doesn’t yet possess an instant-death Decree, his only output is to use ’Mutual Truce’ to blow people away and cause terrain damage... while Husky’s only offensive method is animated sculpture, and Thirteen Spices can only drag this person to attack that person.

But it accentuates a certain aspect of the underworld.

Longjing Tea’s mind telepathy can directly scan the opponent’s stealthers; Husky as an Idol Wizard, has the ability to block the opponent’s spellcasting and rituals; Thirteen Spices is a forced displacement type control mage who can push and pull people without physical contact.

Even if they managed to charge past sculptures, mind control, and wind walls, they would likely still not be able to beat Lin Yiyi at her full buff.

Even if it’s ranged spellcasting or sniping, it would be intercepted by Lin Yiyi.

A perfectly flawless strategic lineup.

Although the output is indeed low.

—But it can truly frustrate the opponent.
