"Why are you crying? Were you bullied by bad people around here?" Lin Rui asked curiously.
Dongg Qingxue quickly wiped her tears and said, "It's nothing, just some sand in my eyes."
"Oh." Lin Rui tactfully bypassed the topic and asked, "Earlier when you were chatting, you said your group wanted to participate in the power war. Besides you, who else is involved?"
"There are also nine nearby Lords, all Explorers from the Federation. Three of them have already upgraded their territories to small villages."
Lin Rui's eyes lit up with admiration, "You guys communicate really fast."
"That's because I have a Horned Owl Beast, so I fly a bit faster and helped everyone establish contact."
Lin Rui nodded and then asked, "You ten Lords, how large of a force can you assemble?"
"Our forces can't compare to yours. At most, we're at the level of a village guard squad or a village monster hunting party. Altogether, ten of us have a team of five hundred people."
