What does it feel like to be stared at by a group of muscular rabbits, twice or thrice your size, with arms thicker than your waist, their eyes gleaming like stars?
Yi Zheng instinctively felt a chill down his spine, then he coughed dryly and said, "In a confrontation between two armies, intelligence is the most important thing! Battle strength comes second."
"With sufficient intelligence, the weaker side can defeat the stronger. That's why human players send out scouts!"
Yi Zheng had just said a couple of sentences when he noticed the rabbits collectively dozing off. He quickly changed his tone and said, "Brothers, grab your weapons and chop them!"
As soon as he said that, the rabbits were no longer sleepy and collectively raised their snakes and chickens, shouting, "Chop them!"
Looking at this group of Mang Rabbits, Yi Zheng felt a bit helpless.
Meanwhile, Congxue, who was stuffed into the tree hole, couldn't help but tremble. The rabbits outside were so imposing, as neat and orderly as an army. Especially the ferocity on their faces—it was truly terrifying!
The most crucial thing was, she had confirmed that there was a clever guy behind the scenes directing the rabbits. This piece of intelligence was of utmost importance. It could even influence the outcome of the battle!
But she was powerless now because she couldn't even commit suicide. She could only fume.
"Stupid rabbits, filthy rabbits, if you've got the guts, kill me!" Congxue shouted angrily, trying to provoke the other side into killing her. Then after resurrection, she could go back and alert the humans.
However...
"Snake King, wait until our side starts fighting, then twist off her head. Insult me? Just because she's pretty, doesn't mean I'll spoil her!" Yi Zheng said, then waved his hand, "Brothers, move out, chop them up!"
"Chop them up!"
The Mang Rabbits followed Yi Zheng rushing toward the Newbie Village.
Hearing the gradually receding footsteps of the rabbits, Congxue knew that the leader had seen through her little scheme. The reason they were delaying killing her was to prevent her from going back and alerting the humans!
But they didn't plan on keeping her forever either.
After all, the longer she stayed here, the more she would see and hear.
"This guy is both cautious and shrewd, and he's ruthless too. He'll be a major threat in the future!" Congxue evaluated Yi Zheng.
Meanwhile, Yi Zheng was summoning people to attack the direction of Newbie Village.
As for Congxue, Yi Zheng liked pretty girls, but the main reason was, his soul was human! Even though the rabbits were cute… well, they weren't very cute now.
So he hoped for some pretty and pleasant people around, or else it was really an eyesore.
But he only liked obedient girls, not hostile ones.
"When Master Rabbit becomes strong, I'll catch a few goddesses. One for massaging my back, one for my shoulders, one to warm my bed, one to wash my clothes… hmm, I don't seem to need clothes." Yi Zheng looked at his fur and sighed.
From a distance, Yi Zheng could already see Newbie Village.
With a clanking of armor breaking the silence, two thousand of the most elite human warriors marched out.
They walked out of Newbie Village one after another and began to form a battle formation.
This time, Wang Mingchen and others had gotten smart. This time, they'd left themselves a way out.
Their backs were against the gates of Newbie Village, forming a battle formation that could both fight and retreat.
All these people were clad in metal armor. Under the torches, the armor shimmered with a golden-red glow, very dazzling.
Yi Zheng smiled, "Now this is getting interesting."
"Boss, we're here! Did you call for us?"
The Groundhog King and the Groundhog Queen popped out of the ground simultaneously.
Yi Zheng pointed to the brightly lit Newbie Village in the distance, "You dig a tunnel, dig straight to the back of the crowd. Once we start fighting, you jump out from behind and cut off their retreat. Got it?"
"Got it!" The Groundhog King immediately raised his paw, indicating he understood.
Yi Zheng said, "Go ahead. Whether we can wipe them out depends on you! Do well, and you won't be nunchucks anymore; you can run a hall peacefully."
"Thank you, Boss!" The two groundhogs rejoiced, no longer having to be swung around by this rabbit, finally seeing the light!
"Boss, it will take us about an hour to dig to the spot, you'll need to wait," The Groundhog King said.
Yi Zheng said, "No problem, I can wait."
The Groundhog King immediately led the groundhogs underground, digging towards Newbie Village.
Meanwhile, Yi Zheng and his bunny army hid in the darkness. All the rabbits closed their eyes and kept silent, just waiting for Yi Zheng's order.
In the distance, the human army was on full alert.
Young Master Zeng, Fang Ling, Yun Ying, and Chen Chuanwen, the presidents of the four guilds, stood at the front of the team, looking at the darkness ahead. Young Master Zeng clenched his fist, "This time, I'll make those rabbits pay!"
"It's time to show those rabbits who's the boss of this world," Fang Ling gritted her teeth.
She was a girl and should have liked rabbits, but no girl would still like rabbits after being brutally kicked in the face by a bunch of them.
Yun Ying instinctively protected his crotch, his eyes flashing coldly, "This time, I'll make those rabbits pay the price!"
Chen Chuanwen said, "That's enough. Declare war!"
Yue Wei stepped forward, his burly figure and loud voice booming, "Rabbits, your grandpa is here again! If you're men, come out and fight! If you're scared, go back and gnaw on carrots!"
Then the group behind Yue Wei shouted in unison, "Rabbits, your grandpa is here again! If you're men, come out and fight! If you're scared, go back and gnaw on carrots!"
Their voices thundered, echoing through the mountains and returning to the grasslands.
Yi Zheng heard and saw clearly. He even saw the veins bulging on the big rabbits' bodies. They were obviously very angry.
But Yi Zheng made a gesture for silence. Although the rabbits were irritable and reckless, they still obeyed Yi Zheng's orders, suppressing their anger and waiting.
...
Ten minutes later, the grasslands were still silent.
It was as if the darkness had swallowed all the rabbits and life, turning this place into a dead zone.
Yue Wei turned to Chen Chuanwen, Yun Ying, and the others.
Wang Mingchen said, "Stop looking; keep yelling. We're not leaving the Newbie Village. We have to lure them out. Use your best cursing skills and yell!"
Yue Wei nodded and then shouted again, "Rabbits, little rabbits? You sissies, if you're men, come out!"
The hundred people behind him followed in a loud echo, "Rabbits, little rabbits? You sissies, if you're men, come out!"
Yi Zheng noticed that the rabbits' muscles were all tense, but they were still holding back.
Another ten minutes passed, and the grasslands remained deathly silent.
Yue Wei said, "The rabbits can't all be asleep, can they?"
"Even if they're asleep, they can hear you yelling," Wang Mingchen said.
