Come to think of it, destroying an imperial city on a server would require at least ten million elite players. The players that an Arcane Space Teleportation Gate, Space Element Players, and even Mass Teleport Scrolls could transport were nowhere near enough, so elites had to be deployed in advance.
Take the China Server, for example. This time, the Japanese Server Alliance mobilized far more than ten million elites to destroy the China Server's imperial city. They had deployed tens of millions of elite players along the border adjacent to the China Server beforehand, and even then, they had only barely managed to capture the China Server's imperial city.
Although the China Server Alliance's strength, as well as the China Server's own strength, had been greatly reduced after its imperial city was destroyed, defending a city was far easier than attacking one. Thus, taking another imperial city of the China Server Alliance would still require ten million or even more elite players. That meant elite players had to be deployed in that server or an adjacent one in advance.
In other words, if they discovered a server that had been invaded in advance by players from the Japanese Server Alliance, that server was very likely the target of a feint, while the adjacent server was naturally very likely to be the true target of their sneak attack.
Once they understood this, they could determine which two servers the Japanese Server Alliance intended to attack based on their prior deployments, allowing them to deploy forces in advance for defense. Under such circumstances, it would undoubtedly be much easier to hold them off.
There was no shortage of clever people among them, and they quickly figured this out. For a time, everyone was glad that Yan Hua Yi Leng had taken the
