Chapter 648: #648 - Section 648

If benefits can unite multiple forces, then benefits can also destroy them.

Shuten-dōji suddenly appeared, immediately going all out in the battle.

He exposed his trump cards, putting on an air of "victory is assured."

That posture made it seem as if Shuten-dōji was no longer afraid of any enemies pursuing him.

After their plan is successfully executed, Shuten-dōji will be strengthened.

And this enhancement will make him an almost invincible existence.

Striking that pose was like calling out when playing Dou Dizhu, saying he only had two cards left.

If you don't want to lose, you definitely have to play your cards aggressively to see if you can interrupt his play.

Thus, the various forces within Paradise could no longer restrain themselves.

On one hand, it was due to impatience, and on the other hand, it was due to benefits.

Although they didn't yet know exactly what Shuten-dōji was pursuing, they also wanted to obtain it.

So, after a brief discussion, they all attacked together.

After they attacked, no one paid attention to the specific situation around them, and the World Serpent members succeeded.

They completely sealed off the Paradise world and even pulled off a 'catching a turtle in a jar' maneuver.

"This Shuten-dōji immediately saw through my plan and even took some accelerated actions to counter it."

"Of course, I'm definitely not at a loss; after all, I was just scheming against those few forces."

"What Shuten-dōji is doing is the same as me."

Jiang Wang said, he didn't feel like he had been schemed against; after all, it was just those greedy guys who were unlucky.

If they had just waited a little longer, things wouldn't have developed like this.

"In any case, we have no backup now, but our goal has been somewhat achieved."

"After this battle, we can still deal with a World Serpent organization that has been severely hit."

Jiang Wang said, his eyes gleaming with the light of wisdom.

Although most of the Paradise forces had already charged forward and were fighting fiercely with the World Serpent people.

There were also a few people who did not participate.

First and foremost were the people of the Holy Temple. Although there were only about ten of them and their strength was average.

Under Jiang Wang's instructions, they remained steady and did not launch an attack.

Secondly, there were the martial artists from the Fighting Arena. They had no desire for benefits.

They never cared about the struggle for benefits; all they wanted was a great battle.

In short, Jiang Wang still had cards to play.

And the World Serpent side had also suffered significant losses.

On the surface, it seemed that Jiang Wang had been completely defeated, but this battle could continue.

"In that case, why don't we take action to help these people?"

"If we assist them in eliminating the World Serpent in front of us,"

"Wouldn't we weaken the enemy and gain assistance at the same time?"

Lucky Cowboy Winner asked, not understanding Jiang Wang's actions at this moment.

"The answer is to escape. As soon as we take action, these people will run away."

Heras said, shaking his head and revealing a helpless expression.

"If they run, we'll be the only ones facing the World Serpent people."

"And the ultimate trump card is not the best time to play now."

Jiang Wang shook his head, completing the words that Heras had not finished.

"If these guys run, they won't fight again. They'll probably hide in some corner, waiting quietly."

"After all, in their eyes, there's no hope of victory anymore. Let them fight to the death here."

Jiang Wang said, it was less that he didn't want to save them, and more that Jiang Wang was happy to see the result of this death match.

Rather than saving them and then facing those enemies himself,

It was better to wait a little and see what the final result of the battle would be.

Those guys were just a rabble gathered for profit. If they ran, they wouldn't continue fighting.

Without support, to drag them to fight against the incredibly powerful Shuten-dōji?

These guys even had the risk of defecting and surrendering.

Let them be 'consumed' here.

Jiang Wang had a completely merciless expression. This wasn't a black-hearted statement; it was just about maximizing benefits.

"You really are different from ordinary Holy Temple members."

Winner said, looking at Jiang Wang with some surprise.

"After the battle is over, let's talk to the remaining World Serpent members."

"If possible, let's cooperate with them."

Jiang Wang said, this move was simply unscrupulous.

Chapter 701: No Mercy

"Cooperate with them? Is there a need for that? Shouldn't we beat a dog when it's down and make a fortune?"

The bounty hunter Winner's vision was relatively narrow; he could only see what was in front of him.

And what Jiang Wang was pursuing was clearly more profound.

"These guys are obviously the so-called abandoned pawns, killing people here out of fear of Shuten-dōji's power."

"They should be the guys within the World Serpent organization who don't see eye to eye with Shuten-dōji."

"And they have the ambition to usurp and take the planned target for themselves."

Jiang Wang said, reaching out and pinching his brow. He actually kindly explained it to them.

"Now, they've clearly been tricked by Shuten-dōji."

"If they retreat at this time, they will be killed by Shuten-dōji. If they fight to the end, they will suffer heavy losses."

"Of course, they don't dare to resist; after all, that guy is a five-layered powerhouse with double the qualifications."

"Perhaps, after this battle, the remaining remnants can only completely submit to Shuten-dōji."

Jiang Wang said, and this was precisely Shuten-dōji's plan.

On the one hand, he completely cut off support, and on the other hand, he severely hit the internal forces of Paradise. Most importantly, he eliminated dissidents.

Since this was the result that the enemy's plan wanted to achieve, then what Jiang Wang had to do was to completely disrupt the plan.

In Shuten-dōji's plan, he would harvest the remnants, and these people could do nothing but submit.

They could no longer cause any trouble, and what could be harvested in the grand plan would belong to Shuten-dōji alone.

Clearly, they were members of the same organization, but they had no concept of "comrades" at all.

They were even scheming against each other and harming each other in the process of the grand plan.

"If we can make good use of these guys, we might be able to give Shuten-dōji a powerful backstab."

"We can't let the enemy get stronger, and we can't let the enemy have their way. I will stop whatever he wants."

Jiang Wang said, revealing a confident smile.

"You are a member of the Holy Temple, yet you are thinking of cooperating with the World Serpent people."

Winner felt that he couldn't understand the person in front of him.

This was very different from the Holy Temple members in his impression. Jiang Wang's style of doing things was very… unique.

"Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. Isn't it good that they are at odds with each other?"

Jiang Wang said, although he used Holy Light and was also a member of the Holy Temple.

But he was completely different from those simple and honest people. He could come up with such strange methods with a wave of his hand.

"You seem a little dissatisfied. Just think of it as a big gamble."

"Is it to hunt these small fish and shrimps, or to weave a big net with me and catch them all in one fell swoop?"

"Not to mention, the most crucial guy is that person named Shuten-dōji."

Jiang Wang said, reaching out and patting Winner on the shoulder.

"Didn't you say you were lucky? Why don't you come and take a big gamble with me?"

Jiang Wang said, revealing a bewitching smile.

Although the person in front of him was just a "small character" at the second layer of Breaking Void.

However, Jiang Wang still had some expectations for something like luck.

It wasn't enough to place all his hopes on "luck", but Jiang Wang just wanted things to go more smoothly.

In fact, many people in this world don't aspire to become lucky people.

Such a pursuit is very extravagant.

Most people just want to "not be unlucky".

Just like in gacha games, everyone seems to believe that they can only get the guaranteed drop.

The lucky ones are probably those who draw directly and get the desired item immediately.

More people have already accepted the fact that they can only get the guaranteed drop.
