Novel Full Chapter 450: Void Battlefield
Void Battlefield, Lamster City
After calming down, the people in the city looked around.
In total concentration, they looked around to see if an enemy was waiting for an ambush.
With no enemy in sight, the acting city lord, Nordo, quickly instructed the people in the city to investigate the place.
To ensure administrative fairness, each city had an administrative staff of all levels, from tier 1 to tier 8.
Thus, Lamster City could still function without the City Lord.
After investigating the rules of the Void Battlefield, various pieces of information were passed to the acting city lord, Nordo.
Reading the intelligence, Nordo couldn’t help but frown.
In this Void Battlefield, using arrays, large-scale weapons, weapons of mass destruction like poison, energy weapons, and weapons higher than tier 3 was prohibited.
This means almost all of the Moonlight Empire’s preparation for them was directly abolished.
“This battlefield is indeed ruthless; it wants us to fight face to face,” Nordo sighed.
“Prepare and evacuate all those who should be evacuated. This time, we must fight to the death if we want to return.”
“Yes, Sir Nordo!”
…
While Lamster City was arranging its people, billions of miles away was the Redhold City of the Blood Ragnarok Realm.
Different from Lamster City, the people in Redhold City were calm and composed; quickly dividing into teams, they marched toward the nearest enemy territory detected by magic devices.
Having fought a few dimensional wars, they were already veterans and had developed certain technologies.
Although the Void Battlefield rules in Dimensional War differed each time, there were still patterns to follow.
Usually, if most individuals from both dimensions were close combatants, the rules would prevent all defensive building and massive-scale attacks.
On the other hand, if both were ranged combatants, it would be a siege and strategic battlefield with complicated rules.
It seemed they were lucky this time; the warriors of the blood Ragnarok realm were almost all close-combat warriors.
With the rules favoring them, if they didn’t take a swift attack, the enemy would have more time to set defensive measures.
…
In Lamster City, noticing the enemy approaching, Nordo became solemn.
“How many are there?” Nordo asked the scout.
“300,000 tier 3, over twenty million tier 2, and no sighting of tier 1 enemies found,” the scout said gravely.
“Do they know how much power we have?” Nordo muttered in puzzlement.
They had only about a hundred thousand soldiers who reached tier 3 realm.
As for tier 2 individuals, there were a little over 13 million.
“Prepare to meet the enemy!”
Although they were severely outnumbered, Clark was still confident in winning.
The education and training they went through were not something to scoff at.
Meanwhile, Legarios, the bun owner from earlier, quickly formed a team of five.
Forming a team was a staple during their academy days; it was the first combat ability they would learn.
“Are you ready?” Legarios looked at his teammates.
“Hahaha, old man, don’t hold us back!”
“Be careful of being hurt. I can’t heal you if your head is cut off.”
“Enough chitchat, the enemy is here!”
Meeting the enemy face to face, both sides paused.
“Who’s your leader?” Garum, the leader of the invaders from the Blood Ragnarok Realm, asked.
“I am. What do you need? Do you want to surrender?” Nordo asked, smiling.
“No, I just want to make sure not to kill you by mistake!” Garum coldly said, waving his hand to start the attack.
Proficient in dimensional war, he knew persuading the enemy to surrender was useless.
Although it was possible, the effort was not worth it.
“That’s what I’m talking about! Fight!”
Diving toward the enemy, Legarios and the others charged bravely without fearing death.
Trusting their teammates with their backs, they attacked wantonly, harvesting the lives of these fallen divine beings.
From defense, healing, long-range support, and traps, the team of five seems to function like a machine, invalidating the difference in number.
“So strong?” Garum, who was watching from the side, was shocked by the enemy’s ferocity.
Although they were outnumbered three to one, the power sent off by their team’s synchronization of five was probably over ten times.
“No, retreat!”
“Retreat! back to the base,” Garum quickly ordered.
Knowing it was a losing battle, he didn’t want to risk the lives of his people. МѴᒪЕМƤҮЯ.ϹΘМ
“Hmph! How can it be easy to escape? Kill!”
As the rampage continued, casualties began to appear on both sides.
However, because of their retreat, the Blood Ragnarok sustained more casualties, sending the people in the Etherium Realm into eruptions of cheers.
“Count the casualties.”
Although the crowd was celebrating for successfully repelling the enemy, Nordo was solemn.
Seeing the bodies that would forever lay on this battlefield, he couldn’t help but be saddened.
“Over a thousand tier 3 casualties and tens of thousands of tier 2 casualties,” the soldier said, shocked by the numbers.
They thought they were winning by a large margin, but it seemed that the enemy was also fierce.
“Hmm, collect the bodies. They must be buried gloriously in our land.” Nordo walked back toward the city lord building.
Inside, Nordo looked at the virtual map being formed, showing the cities of the Etherium Realm and the Blood Ragnarok Realm.
“Amazing. I wonder what technology this map uses. How can it map the Void Battlefield so fast?”
He didn’t know that tiny micro-surveillance bots came with the city.
As soon as they landed, it began spreading, hoping to map the entire area as quickly as possible.
Looking at the cities from the Blood Ragnarok Realm, Nordo didn’t think about attacking them.
According to the virtual map, millions of tier 3 individuals were in each city, and capturing them was nearly impossible.
“It seems that the Blood Ragnarok Realm is prepared.”
Not only were they able to outnumber them, looking at the projection map, their power was also more concentrated.
Basically, every hundred cities of the Etherium Realm were equivalent to one city of the Blood Ragnarok Realm.
“Hey, it’s because our children still hadn’t grown up,” Nordo chuckled, thinking of his children, who were in the school bunker, safe and sound.
If they were given more time, even just thousands of years, they could also crush the Blood Ragnarok realm in number.
Following the protocol during the drills and simulation in the Etherium Realm, Nordo instructed to disassemble Lamster City and march to the center of the map.
All cities in the Astral Continent are modulized, meaning they can be disassembled and assembled easily.
According to the protocol, once they confirmed that they couldn’t invade the enemy territory while ensuring minimal casualties, they were to gather and wait for reinforcements.
Soon, with the announcement of city disassembly, Legarios and his teammates, who were still battered and injured, went to the city’s formicary to pick up the Void Ants.
Void Ants were a staple for any type of construction.
To make construction easier and faster, a city usually built a nest to facilitate the usage of Void Ants.
Maximus also liked the idea and bought Void Ants worth millions of origin coins.
Controlling each Void Ant for more efficiency, they disassembled Lamster City in just a few hours.
Seeing the empty land, Nordo became solemn, watching the map constantly, fearing they would be ambushed.
This was his confidence to evacuate and gather together with other cities.
Leading billions of people, they went on with their journey.
In the team, the front and the back were protected by ten thousand tier 3 elite.
In the surrounding area were the remaining tens of thousands tier 3 elite, scattered looking for possible enemies.
Although Nordo trusted the map His Majesty Maximus provided, a little carelessness could cost them their lives.
Meanwhile, in the center of the marching team were tier 2 and tier 1 people holding huge the shelter blocks.
These shelters contained their children, the future of the Etherium Realm.
Protecting them was a priority, even if it cost them their lives.
As they marched, Maximus, who was watching in the dark, smiled.
All along, from start to finish, Maximus was watching.
Hundreds of years before the first phase of the Dimensional War started, Maximus cloned himself hundreds of quintillions of times for each tier and put them in each city to stay dormant.
Once something unforeseen happened to the city, the clone with the highest tier would wake up and prevent any uncontrolled accidents.
“This Nordo is good; calm and composed, following all the protocols to the point,” Maximus commended.
Although there were some casualties, Maximus didn’t care.
To grow, there must be sacrifice.
Furthermore, even if he could help, Maximus couldn’t protect them all the time.
He was only a tier 3 clone.
Besides his skill, the energy in his body was, at most, a little higher than normal.
His unlimited mana didn’t work on clones and only acted on his true body.
Thus, unless a catastrophe were about to wipe them out, Maximus wouldn’t show himself.
While he was thinking, he felt distress signals from the other clones.
“Hmm, this is the direction of cities from the Divine Continent? It seems that they are in danger…”
Being closer to one of the divine cities, he merged into the shadow and ran for backup.
