Chapter 1028: Chapter 1031: The Start of the Second Great War_1 Chapter 1028: Chapter 1031: The Start of the Second Great War_1 “Crack!”
A hard slap landed on the table.
This table, which was carved from Ghost King Wood and claimed to be immortal for ten thousand years, was crushed instantly!
The cups and water bottles on the table clattered down to the floor, but nobody picked them up.
It wasn’t that they didn’t want to move, but they dared not.
The Demon Warrior, Earth Treasury, glanced over the crowd with a gloomy gaze, silencing everyone.
Although they all belonged to the Hall of Fame, the strength Earth Treasury demonstrated was nearly overwhelming, especially against newcomers like Tiannie, Yama, and Edward.
It was a blatant threat.
…
Only at this moment did these arrogant members of the Hall of Fame truly understand how strong a Complete Strongman could be.
The palpable spiritual pressure silenced everyone; you could hear a pin drop in the hall.
After a long while, the spiritual power began to subside, and people finally caught their breath.
Earth Treasury slowly stood up and paced back and forth in the room.
“We planned the first round of the Skyfire War for a long time, with a very clear tactical goal of using a hit squad to kill the Hall of Fame members of the opposing team and demoralise them.
In reality, our plan was a great success.
After the battle began, over ten of the enemy’s Hall of Fame members were killed by us, boosting our morale.
That’s a fact.”
But then he suddenly changed his tone.
“However…
there’s one thing that I am very unsatisfied with, which is Lin Zhen’s sudden attack at the last moment!”
Earth Treasury’s gaze was firmly locked on Edward.
“What happened in your war zone?
Knowing perfectly well that Lin Zhen is an enemy of our species, you sent out five useless people.
What on earth were these few people supposed to do?
To lose for sending Lin Zhen’s trophies or what?
Five Hall of Fame members were wiped out by one Hall of Fame member.
Do you have any idea how damaging this is to the morale of our species?”
Edward remained silent.
Earth Treasury continued, “Not five, but six, including Ayuluo.
I must admit, we all underestimated Lin Zhen.”
At this point, Lou Jialuo from the First War Zone spoke up, “Commander, Lin Zhen must be eliminated.
He has killed our Martial Artists.
If we cannot avenge this, everybody will consider our Martial Artists to be paper tigers.
We can’t afford to lose face like this!”
Earth Treasury snorted, “It’s clear what’s right and wrong, but you should be aware that if we fail again next time, the face we lose will be greater.
I can accept failing once, but not twice.
If you want to kill Lin Zhen, go for it, but you can’t fail.
Do you dare to make a military oath?”
Lou Jialuo’s expression was not pleasant either, as Lin Zhen had also killed his subordinates.
But who could confidently say they could definitely kill Lin Zhen?
Although Lou Jialuo was very confident that Lin Zhen was no match for him, he could see that Lin Zhen was audacious yet careful.
The latter’s previous risky attack was because his side was not ready.
There probably won’t be such a good opportunity next time.
When asked to make a military oath, Lou Jialuo was not entirely confident.
At this moment, Edward suddenly stood up, “Commander, we were careless before.
However, I believe we can still get rid of Lin Zhen.
We need to plan meticulously to ensure that we don’t give Lin Zhen another opportunity.”
“Do you have any good ideas?”
Red lights flashed frantically on Edward’s metallic face.
He excitedly said, “There is a way, but we’ll need everyone’s cooperation.”
“Let’s hear it.”
“Lin Zhen has made a name for himself in the first battle.
His spirits are high right now.
As long as we plan meticulously, this…
this…
Lin Zhen will definitely take the bait!”
After listening to Edward’s suggestion, Earth Treasury nodded repeatedly.
“Not a bad idea, a very good plan indeed.
Let’s proceed as you’ve suggested.”
He issued a series of orders, then stood up.
“Everyone, the Emperor is watching us from behind.
Our endless species’s glory depends on us to realise it.
Now, I announce the start of the second wave of combat.
This time, we must deal a heavy blow to the Ground Clan!”
All members of the Hall of Fame from the Endless Species roared in unison, reigniting their battle spirits!
**********
The first wave of attack by the Endless Species failed.
Actually, it can’t be considered a failure.
When calculating the casualty ratio of both sides, the Endless Species still had the upper hand.
The Ground Clan lost twelve Hall of Fame members while the Endless Species lost seven members.
The Endless Species still had some advantage.
This was largely thanks to Lin Zhen’s consecutive killer of six.
If it weren’t for this, the Ground Clan would have utterly lost this time.
Lin Zhen’s six man kill spree had made him a figurehead within the Ground Clan, praised and celebrated by countless people.
In the Dimensional Universe, flattery flooded over Lin Zhen in such a way that it made him feel goosebumps.
Across different planets, star systems, nations, and cities, people of numerous species commended Lin Zhen’s heroic deeds in their unique languages and ways.
For a time, he was hyped up as the saviour of the Ground Clan, the greatest person below God.
It seemed that as long as Lin Zhen was there, the Endless Species’s clowns would be nothing.
Victory in the war would eventually be achieved.
This endless praise made Lin Zhen somewhat annoyed, and also made other members of the Hall of Fame view Lin Zhen with some resentment.
However, there was no way to address this matter.
If they asked people to speak less, it might be taken as them intentionally putting on an act.
They could only let it be, believing that it would lessen as the battle continued.
Lin Zhen could ignore what was happening in the Dimensional Universe, but the voices around him were still present.
For example, Augustine.
This old fellow obeyed Lin Zhen’s orders; whatever Lin Zhen said, he would do.
This time, Lin Zhen performed so excellently that Augustine suddenly became his most devoted fan, praising him with abandon, and practically elevating him to a supreme status.
Lin Zhen was well aware that Augustine was buttering him up, but he didn’t really care.
As a martial artist, his heart was clear and not inclined to be troubled by such things.
Augustine’s flattery wouldn’t make him arrogant; it was of no consequence.
However, as the second wave of the Endless Species’ attack began, Lin Zhen realized something was amiss.
********
In their first assault, the Endless Species had a purpose.
The scale of the attack was not big, but this second time was different.
Having seemingly gauged the strength of the Ground Clan, the Endless Species had almost fully mobilized for their second attack.
The Demon Clan, the Ghost Clan, and other large groups had all deployed nearly half of their members.
They formed a massive attacking wave sprawling across the Heavenly River, resembling a looming cloud of darkness, thunderously crossing the Heavenly River, moving in to kill the Ground Clan.
Huge rock giants, gruesome looking Demons, creepy Ghosts, shape-shifting celestial beasts, emotionless metal life forms, aura-filled Demon Clan, they covered the sky and filled the Heavenly River!
In the sea of demons, numerous silver flags were flitting about.
Each silver flag represented a Hall of Fame strong.
In Lin Zhen’s eighth battle zone alone, he saw no fewer than twenty flags.
That was twenty Hall of Fame members!
Surrounding the Hall of Fame, countless Quasi-Hall of Fame and King-sealing Powerhouses had also been fully mobilized.
This massive buildup gave the people of the Ground Clan a real sense of the atmosphere of war.
At first, people thought the battle between the two species would be a protracted war that could potentially last hundreds of years, but now it seemed that the Endless Species wanted to settle the score quickly.
The Ground Clan dared not slack off and would not allow the Endless Species to fully cross the Heavenly River.
They dispatched their main force into the Heavenly River, ready to battle the Endless Species.
Even more members of the Ground Clan were dispatched than members of the Endless Species, with each battle zone having a force of ten billion.
The two armies met in the central area of the Heavenly River.
The Dimensional Universe Corporation broadcast the war in real time, ensuring the Original World could watch the fight first-hand.
The curtain on this battlefield was lifted, and the fiercest battle began.
The intense collision of martial artists created the most dazzling sparks.
Members of both species fought to death, battling for every inch of land and space.
A Ground Clan martial artist killed a demon with one sword stroke but was beheaded by a member of the Demon Clan.
The person behind thrust forward with their spear, killing the Demon while losing their life to a Ghost Clan member who took advantage of the moment.
You kill me, I kill him, and with the support of strong Star Power, the intense battle seemed like a world-shattering event.
Each strike held the weight to destroy a planet, making everyone watching tremble in fear.
Occasionally a strong one appeared, sweeping away a large number of opponents as soon as they emerged, then drawing out the opponent’s strong ones.
When the two strong ones met, a heaven-shaking battle would ensue.
Here, even these usual dominant characters had become foot soldiers and could lose their lives at any moment.
Even those Hall of Fame members could not continuously slaughter their enemies.
In the day’s battle, more than a dozen Hall of Fame members fell on the battlefield, and this time there were casualties on both sides.
The Endless Species didn’t gain any advantages.
Even commanders Nine Profound and Earth Treasury had a field fight.
After a brief clash, they both retreated when they realized they could not win quickly and directed their subordinates to expand their achievements elsewhere.
The battle became intense so quickly, it took everyone by surprise!
********
In the eighth battle zone, several silver flags gathered together, forming an unstoppable wave.
All members of the Ground Clan who blocked their path were easily exterminated and killed.
Taking the lead was Edward, the commander of the Endless Species’ second battle zone.
Behind him, the newly emerged top ten strong leader, Tian Zhuo, and the Demon Clan’s star of hope, Moro, followed him closely.
Clearly, this was the enemy’s main force.
With just these three together, no one from the Ground Clan could stop them.
One of the Hall of Fame strong members had fallen under their joint siege.
