Chapter 576: Civilization War — "The False Civilization", Emergency Mobilization Order

"Bloodsucking Werewolf final modification experiment, commencing now!"

As Miller's voice rang out.

In the laboratory, a vial of faintly silver-glowing serum was taken out of the insulated box by the researchers.

It was then placed into the reagent slot.

"This is the modification serum made from that silver-glowing blood gene?"

Yu Yuan looked toward Jiu Feng.

"Yes, master. This gene is very special..."

Jiu Feng's words were cut off by a sudden notification.

——[Player ID: Unicorn Rhino Shelter has used a Civilization War Token. In one hour they will launch a Civilization War against you. Prepare for battle.]

Yu Yuan stared at the information on the virtual light screen.

"A Civilization War!"

Someone was actually launching a Civilization War directly against him.

Different from an invasion war, Civilization War assigns attacking and defending players.

The defending player has the home-field advantage.

Triggered by using a Civilization War Token, the Civilization War mode fully links the two players' worlds so they exist within the same world.

For both players, this essentially meant a war to the death.

But who was the attacker?

Yu Yuan couldn't focus on Hogg's experiment any longer.

He immediately left the lab to check the Unicorn Rhino Shelter's situation.

The attacker wasn't on the list in Moon Shadow's Hire Roster that Greenfield had given him earlier.

On the Bronze Rank leaderboard, Unicorn Rhino Shelter was ranked a surprising 1,252.

Ranked 1,252.

Yu Yuan instantly sent Greenfield a message asking for intelligence on Unicorn Rhino.

Greenfield was equally shocked when she saw Yu Yuan's message.

[Greenfield Cruise Ship: Are you sure it's Unicorn Rhino? They're initiating a Civilization War?]

When she received Yu Yuan's confirmation, she realized something was wrong.

Compared to Yu Yuan, she clearly knew more about Unicorn Rhino.

[Greenfield Cruise Ship: This is bad. Why would the Snake Kiss people be eyeing you?]

[Yu Yuan Shelter: Snake Kiss?]

Yu Yuan quickly pulled up the Shelter Memo.

The name "Snake Kiss" felt familiar.

Sure enough, in the memo he found intelligence on Snake Kiss.

The Pen of Longstanding Heritage had once recorded a covert intelligence entry.

Within that intel, there was information about the Snake Kiss organization.

From that entry, Yu Yuan first learned about the gold-tier powers behind the Blood Clan and the Wolf Clan.

Mechanist Supremacy, Wild Throne, Bloodlands, Fallen Abyss — these gold-tier factions all appeared in that dossier.

It was also in that report that Yu Yuan first saw information about the Rational Wastes.

He hadn't expected to see Snake Kiss show up here again.

After Greenfield and Yu Yuan became Covenant partners,

[Greenfield Cruise Ship: Snake Kiss is a mercenary organization among the Civilization Ladder. Wherever there's profit, they're present.

I only knew Unicorn Rhino was with Snake Kiss because during a prior star-gazing incident I saw faint traces on the spirituality layer, and after multiple checks I confirmed his identity.

In short, Unicorn Rhino can be considered Snake Kiss's hand in the Bronze Rank. Wait, I once investigated him out of curiosity — I'll send you the files.]

[Yu Yuan Shelter: ......What a coincidence? Thanks!]

[Greenfield Cruise Ship: Not a coincidence. Back then, while searching for... someone, I investigated many people; he was just one of them. Also, professional code is professional code. Honest price: 1,000,000 survival points, ally rate, no trickery!]

Yu Yuan: ...

Since learning how flexible Greenfield's professional code was with Moon Shadow, Yu Yuan felt a little uneasy seeing the discounted ally price.

"Mm~~ It's my ally rate, different, just a courtesy."

Soon, Greenfield sent over the intelligence on Unicorn Rhino Shelter.

Yu Yuan immediately transferred the 1,000,000 survival points.

Then he quickly reviewed Unicorn Rhino's intelligence dossier.

"Hmm~ A potion civilization?"

[Greenfield Cruise Ship: By the way, I suddenly remembered — he seems to have a special item. Look on the last page. If he's launching a Civilization War on you, maybe he isn't really initiating a Civilization War.

That special item's activation condition might be a Civilization War. I think something shady is going on.]

That was exactly Yu Yuan's suspicion.

On the dossier's final page was concise information about that item.

"The False Civilization"

Quality: Gold

Function: Can choose to consume one Civilization War Token to initiate a Civilization War against a target player. When the Civilization War begins, you may spend 10 million survival points to forcibly change the war mode to the Opponent-Initiated Invasion War Mode. The opponent player will immediately enter our world as the initiator of an invasion war.

Cooldown: 90 days

————————

"What the—!"

Yu Yuan was stunned when he read the item's effects.

An item that performed such a wild trick.

Absolutely overpowered.

At that moment Yu Yuan was extremely glad he had asked Greenfield for the Unicorn Rhino dossier.

[Greenfield Cruise Ship: Not sure if he has that item, but I'd be careful.]

Greenfield's warning came through as well.

[Yu Yuan Shelter: Thanks, I'm preparing now.]

Yu Yuan checked the time. Only 45 minutes remained until the war began.

No time to hesitate.

Facing a player ranked 1,252, Yu Yuan had to pull out his full strength.

The Emergency War Mobilization Order was issued.

At the same time, Alpha, Carmen, Quis, Fang, and Knight all received the alert.

When they saw Yu Yuan's message,

their pupils trembled and they all took a cold breath.

[Wolf Den · King: Attention everyone! Civilization War imminent, enter highest combat readiness.

Except for special circumstances, the following personnel must assemble at the fortress plaza within 30 minutes.

1) 300 elites of the Pioneering Group.

2) All combat personnel ranked Bronze and above except the chief commanders of each world.

3) 5 Mammoths, 1 Ghost, 1 drone reconnaissance vehicle, 1 ammunition supply truck, 2 missile launcher vehicles (must be equipped with Dawn nuclear missiles).]

In that instant, the entire Ten Thousand Nations Pact Civilization, like an awakened beast, began to move.

Dead Mine Town.

Alpha immediately opened the Jackal squad chat.

"Everyone, return to Green Forest World at once, immediately!"

Quis barreled into Dead Mine Town's command center like a madman and started issuing orders.

"Mechanical Armored Vehicle Corps, missile launchers, depart now..."

Hunter Training Camp.

After Carmen authorized the highest emergency combat alarm,

in less than five minutes the training ground was ready.

Everyone was wearing mechanical armor, armed with Yo-yo Assault Rifles and various weapons, radiating lethal intent.

Carmen wore mechanical armor as well, saying nothing extra.

"Vanguard Company 1 and 2, assemble at the fortress plaza. Others enter combat alert status."

With that, Carmen turned and headed for the fortress plaza, Vanguard Companies 1 and 2 following closely.

Members of the Pioneering Group who were en route in the Freedom Tower World joined Carmen's column along the way.
