Chapter 967
The two were actually confused about different things.
Xunwu and Uncle Nineteen were relatives after all, so he directly asked the question that had been bothering him:
"Based on some rumors I've heard..."
"The value of a captured Cursed Clan player seems to be very high, even far exceeding the rewards from the Realm Battlefield itself!"
"As far as I know, during this special training, a considerable number of the top students from both the Longevity Academy and the Boundless Academy are aiming to capture the Curse Clan players alive!"
"Furthermore, they don't necessarily intend to hand over the captured cursed players to the city lord in exchange for rewards..."
"But it seems that the captured cursed players have other uses!"
That concludes my discussion on seeking enlightenment.
His doubts were already quite clear—
The value of capturing a Cursed Clan player alive is significantly higher than killing a Cursed Clan player according to the rules of the Realm Battlefield.
So why did Uncle Nineteen suggest that they give up capturing the player alive and kill the Curse Clan player on the spot?
Jiang Yi's point of doubt was different from Xun Wu's.
But at this moment, he nodded in agreement, looking at Uncle Nineteen with a questioning gaze.
Of course, after only one glance, and meeting Uncle Nineteen's prosthetic eye, he quickly looked away.
Uncle Nineteen shook his head meaningfully and explained in a deep voice:
"Since you've heard the so-called 'rumors,' you should also be able to sense—"
"This interdimensional war targeting the Cursed Clan players... is far too complex!"
"As the saying goes, when besieging an army, leave an opening; when cornered, do not press the enemy. When a race is completely driven to the brink of extinction, the potential it can unleash will far exceed the imagination of the world!"
"not to mention……"
Uncle Nineteen clearly hesitated for a moment before saying something.
The phrase "moreover" was not followed up with further explanation.
Instead, he summarized directly: "In short, treat your participation in the Cursed Clan Realm Battlefield as a regular special training exercise. Just follow the rules of the Realm Battlefield in everything you do."
Xunwu also caught the unspoken "moreover" in his nineteenth uncle's words, and he really wanted to ask him about it.
However, since Uncle Nineteen himself didn't say...
He was too embarrassed to ask any more questions, and just kept nodding, indicating that he would obediently follow Uncle Nineteen's advice.
However, Jiang Yi didn't feel so "embarrassed".
He asked directly:
"'When besieging an army, leave an opening; when a desperate enemy is cornered, do not press him too hard'... Isn't that a line from Sun Tzu's Art of War?"
"Uncle Nineteen, where did you read 'The Art of War' from?"
His point of doubt left Xunwu completely stunned.
Even Uncle Nineteen himself was taken aback.
However, he quickly smiled slightly and shook his head, saying:
"I don't know what 'The Art of War' is..."
"The phrase 'When besieging an enemy, leave an opening; when cornering a desperate enemy, do not press him,' that you heard is probably a translation system built into all races, translating what I wanted to express into a sentence in your race's language that matches your knowledge."
"If you don't believe me, you can ask Xunwu..."
Then he shook his head: "That's not right either. The translation system of all races might not be so easy to express the language of this race."
Seeking enlightenment is a source of confusion in my heart.
He was thinking, "What I heard was also 'When besieging an army, leave an opening; do not press a desperate enemy!'"
I've never heard of this phrase before. What does it mean?
However, he is definitely on Uncle Nineteen's side.
So, without thinking, he went along with his nineteenth uncle's words and proved it:
"Yes, it's a language difference issue, it must be a problem with the multi-race translation system. That 'Art of War' you mentioned, I've never heard of it either. That must be something from your language system..."
"..."
Jiang Yi basically didn't believe the uncle and nephew's coordinated performance.
However, he was somewhat sensible and didn't press the matter further.
Furthermore, there are also instances of human races appearing in other racial realms.
Moreover, Uncle Nineteen also possesses the powerful information-gathering item, the Stone Skeleton Eye Nest.
Perhaps he encountered "The Art of War" during his travels across the country?
Speaking of which, his experience with the [Stone Skeleton Eye Nest] is probably quite remarkable.
Jiang Yi had his own conclusion, so he didn't dwell on it anymore and returned to the main topic:
"What exactly did Uncle Nineteen mean by 'moreover' that he was about to say but didn't finish?"
His blunt question drew another strange look from Xunwu.
However, as Xunwu predicted—
Jiang Yi asked, and Uncle Nineteen answered.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to say—besides, since the bodies of cursed race players possess other values that are coveted by all races..."
"Then, this race itself may have something special about it."
"As for such a special race, we don't need to force ourselves into the trend and try to exterminate them."
Uncle Nineteen didn't say it explicitly.
But Jiang Yi knew that what he really wanted to say was—
Since the bodies of the Cursed Race can be refined into soul essence, and can be combined with a special roulette wheel to give players a second identity...
Such a race is special in itself.
Following this line of thought, Jiang Yi couldn't help but think of the already extinct Illusion Star Rat Clan.
From Uncle Nineteen's perspective, the Illusionary Star Rat Clan should be considered a special race.
It can synthesize a roulette wheel and make all the roulette wheels...
Such an ability is simply outrageous.
But no matter how special a race was, it could not escape the fate of extermination.
The extermination of the Cursed Clan will most likely become an inevitable historical event...
but……
Not sure.
After all, Jiang Yi didn't believe in any so-called "inevitability" to his very core.
As he pondered this, Uncle Nineteen mentioned some possible counterattacks that the Cursed Clan players might take.
One of the aspects that was particularly emphasized was disguise.
Although there has been no news from the myriad races that players of the Cursed Race possess incredible disguise abilities.
However, it is likely that Uncle Nineteen, based on the bodies of Cursed Clan players, can assist players in creating a second identity, suggesting that he possesses extremely terrifying disguise techniques.
Therefore, if you encounter an acquaintance on the battlefield, be extremely careful, as they may very well be a player from the Curse Clan in disguise.
In addition, most players of the Curse Clan also possess extremely strong illusion-related talents...
Uncle Nineteen kept explaining and giving instructions.
Xunwu listened attentively, nodding frequently.
However, as Jiang Yi listened, an idea suddenly popped into his mind.
He looked up again at his nineteenth uncle's prosthetic eye.
After quickly looking away, he suddenly blurted out:
"Actually, I think..."
"Uncle Nineteen's prosthetic eye, capable of seeing through illusions and disguises... seems just right for dealing with cursed players?"
After these words were spoken, the entire private room fell silent.
Xun Wu's lips twitched slightly. He suddenly tugged at the corner of his clothes and said in a low, speechless voice:
"No? Dude? Can you be a little more polite?"
"Furthermore, didn't my nineteenth uncle also say that his eyeball prop requires a specific bloodline, and more importantly, it will damage the original eyeball?"
"You don't have that bloodline, so you definitely can't use this tool."
"Besides, your eyes are perfectly normal. Are you really going to ruin your eyeballs just to use this prop?"
"Ahem." Jiang Yi coughed lightly, a little embarrassed.
This time, however, he did not back down.
Instead, he flipped his hand and took out a scale, frankly saying to Uncle Nineteen:
“I can tell that this prosthetic eye is very important to Uncle Nineteen.”
"So, I'm not insisting, I just wanted to ask if I could borrow it for a moment?"
"During this special training period, could Uncle Nineteen lend me this eyeball that's particularly effective against cursed players...?"
"And as compensation, I will pawn this scale to you?"
