Chapter 295 - The Debut Of A Super Sidekick Force

Chapter 295: The Debut Of A Super Sidekick Force

Lately, the Beiqi players had encountered two issues that caused them headaches.

First of all, it was the Land of the Nine Luminaries in the west.

His Excellency of the Nine Luminaries was unable to bear the players’ successive raids anymore. Therefore, he started intercepting their moves, reducing the chances of successful pillages.

The messengers visited again to nominate a new King of Beiqi.

Of course, the players were against the idea, but the messengers asked them to reconsider the matter. Otherwise, Beiqi and the Nine Luminaries would definitely go to war in the near future.

Although they didn’t reject the messengers outright, the players understood that it would only be another temporary solution. The war would eventually come someday no matter what they decided now.

The players might be worried about the battle, but they were never afraid of it as they were certain about one thing.

No matter what, the Land of the Nine Luminaries would fall into their hands sooner or later.

Another problem was from the Underworld Sea in the east.

Recently, the Death Clan no longer launched invasions. Since the players could no longer hunt them for resources, they went to the Void Ocean to search for them.

However, they were astounded to discover the disappearance of the Death Clan in the Void Ocean.

In order to get to the bottom of it, many players visited the Kuilong Ocean in hopes of finding the Sea King and having a really good talk with him.

The players soon found out the reason after their trip to the Kuilong Ocean.

A war had arisen between the Mu Te Sea Empire and its surrounding forces.

The Death Clan had left the Void Ocean because the battle the Sea King was facing was in desperate need of troops.

A detailed investigation led the players to unveil the cause of the war. It was related to the force from Langya Island who fought with them during the Sea King’s Nation Establishing Ceremony.

The power of Langya Island alone was no match for the Sea King’s Mu Te Sea Nation.

Nevertheless, Langya Island had entrenched themselves in the Kuilong Ocean for many years and had made many acquaintances. Moreover, the owner of Langya Island had roamed everywhere to drum up support, conveying a message to the many forces of the Kuilong Ocean.

If the Sea King dominated them, the status and income of the many forces in the Kuilong Ocean would be affected. According to the Sea King’s character, he would definitely not back off when facing the many forces.

The leaders of the forces had contemplated the matter and had originally decided not to meddle in the confrontation between Langya Island and the Sea King. After all, sticking their necks out and risking their clans’ lives to fight was a foolish decision.

However, the owner of Langya Island gave them an irresistible offer. After all the forces in the Kuilong Ocean had formed a union to wipe out the Mu Te Sea Nation, Langya Island would not take its share during the splitting of land and resources.

The Mu Te Sea Nation possessed 35 percent of resources of the Kuilong Ocean. The offer was awfully tempting. What was more was that the Kuilong Ocean would fall back to the days where the many forces counterbalanced each other after the downfall of the Mu Te Sea Nation.

The very existence of the Mu Te Sea Nation was prone to spike endless wars. All of the forces found the two benefits appealing.

Therefore, the war began.

The Sea King would not have dreamed that every force in the Kuilong Ocean would gang up against him this time.

Facing such a situation, the Sea King had no choice but to channel the Death Clan that was in the Void Ocean into the battle as a shield.

However, the Mu Te Sea Nation was undoubtedly at a disadvantage confronting the army of a coalition of all the other forces in the Kuilong Ocean.

After understanding the situation, each of the players slammed the table and stood up in rage.

The Sea King was the cash cow they had raised for a long time. The players could not bear to see it being milked by other forces.

The current situation was like pests eating a chive they had planted. As farmers, they naturally had to exterminate the pests for the chive to grow better.

Therefore, the players had a meeting and a colossal fleet of Specter Warships gathered at the Liuli Coast. They were prepared to sail and stir up trouble.

…

At the same time, the commander of the Fifth District Military Base of the United States had acquired approval from management on his report. The game, Battle Online, was officially launched throughout the military.

Before that, they had looked into the game thoroughly. They were assured that dying in the game would not adversely affect the mental health of the players. They had also fully experimented and tested the gaming pods from the Black Sea Corporation. After the two aspects were guaranteed to be free of issues, it would not be a problem to launch the game to their troops.

The degree of simulation of the game was sufficient to train soldiers without risking any casualties.

It could also save them ammunition and resources used for training. In the long term, the proposal was plausible while saving a huge cost for the military.

They had even obtained Lu Wu’s phone number from different channels, in hopes of purchasing the game and the technology behind it at a stupendous price.

Lu Wu rejected them right away. It was not up for negotiation.

The National Defense of America was angered by Lu Wu’s attitude, but they could not locate him at all. They could not even find out the identity of Battle Online’s boss behind the scenes with their current database.

The exasperated National Defense of America suggested a second proposal.

To cooperate!

This time, they hoped the Battle Online Corporation could produce a brand new, tailor-made virtual world without any other players for the sake of military training.

The setting could be the same as the Land of Naraka, only that it must completely stand alone without being linked to other devices.

Lu Wu still rejected them. What a joke! Naraka did exist in reality. Lu Wu couldn’t just duplicate it even if he wanted to.

The negotiation was unsuccessful. So, the National Defense of America had no choice but finally decided to dispatch troops onto the public server in the presence of civilian players. They wanted to try it out first. If the result was proven effective, they would try talking to Lu Wu again.

No one could be happier than the Black Sea Corporation with the National Defense of America’s decision, because numerous orders had come in from the military.

Although Lu Wu would receive a commission of five percent, he was not concerned about the money. He cared more about the army from the National Defense of America.

Once they had entered the game using the gaming pods, they were Lu Wu’s army, an army that even death could not free them from.

Lu Wu did not expect the National Defense of America to make such a decision.

A dumbfounded Lu Wu received an entire army from the National Defense of America as his subordinates while their souls were marked by the artifact.

Naraka’s combat power appeared to have a linear increase because of them.

After officially entering the game, the soldiers of the United States were initially complacent. They felt that the creatures would’ve definitely been wiped out with them joining the server.

However, on their first day, the entire army was flattened by the creatures in Naraka. Their original plan of building a military base in the Blue Valley Ruins had not even lasted for half a day when endless creatures invaded them.

Death, revival! Death, revival!

The National Defense of America’s power that dominated the world, when facing creatures whose attributes flattened them, was not worth mentioning.

At that moment, in order to fight the creatures, they had no other choice but to level up and increase their attributes like other players.

However, it was notable that the effect of training their troops was surprisingly good.

Although they couldn’t build a military base for expansion in the Land of Naraka, they altered their strategy. They started to form strongholds all over the Blue Valley Ruins and even recruited players to grow stronger.

Observing the National Defense of America ransacking their brains to occupy the Blue Valley Ruins, Lu Wu felt like laughing.

He had been troubled with the disadvantage the players there had.

The death rate In the Land of Naraka was too high after all. The difficulty level was way higher than Beiqi’s and Cangxu’s. The players were tortured into accepting that it was normal to die three or four times per day.

No one expected the National Defense of America to join in on the battle. Moreover, they were planning to expand the territory for Lu Wu.

With their help, the daily production rate of soul coins increased tremendously.

Lu Wu couldn’t help smiling like an old farmer.
