The Many-Sided Game, the Official Side's Forbearance

Having received prior notice from Connie, and experiencing a tearing sensation in his consciousness similar to that of the Sky Dome Barrier space, Su Mo did not strongly resist.

As always, after relaxing my mind, the surrounding space underwent subtle changes.

Just like the holographic projection, Su Mo opened his eyes the moment the voice rang out again.

Sure enough, the surroundings were no longer the familiar cliffs of Iron Stone Mountain, but had transformed into a huge, dark palace.

Inside the palace, many details were blurry and not as realistic as the Sky Dome Barrier, but Su Mo was still slightly surprised that the alien race had acquired such technology in such a short time.

Turning to look around, the Curse Tiger Clark, who had spoken earlier, was now sitting upright at the top of the palace.

However, he himself was seated at the lower end of the palace, which made it seem like there was a clear distinction between the main and secondary positions.

"This is a scene of divine power that the chieftain of the Curse Tiger Race transmitted to our Divine Gift bestowed artifact at great cost six days ago."

"To transmit this image, the Five Great Royal Clans sacrificed two True God's Edict. We also need to pay a small amount of pseudo-divine power to view it."

The light screen beside her flickered, and with a ripple, Connie's figure appeared inside the palace.

Compared to Su Mo's surprise, Connie seemed unfazed and continued:

"Don't be fooled by how magnificent this palace is; the divine scenes depicted are all imagined. It's the dwelling place of the Curse Tiger Race."

"Given their racial characteristics and numbers, they certainly won't be luxurious!"

Feeling the sense of rejection in his mind, and the sense of security that he could leave at any time, Su Mo felt relieved and signaled Connie to continue.

With a light tap of the staff, the paused video resumed playing.

In the shadows, as the voice of Clark, the chieftain of the Curse Tiger Race, continued to ring out, his figure appeared at the head of the table.

"Huh, the Cursed Tiger is such a small thing?"

Not far away, the Cursed Tiger, one of the Five Great Royal Clans of the alien races, should have been enormous and exceptionally domineering in Su Mo's imagination.

But when he saw the cursed tiger, which was only about the size of a puppy, Su Mo couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Yes, they are not a race known for their individual strength. In a one-on-one fight, they are even inferior to our Lion-men."

"What's truly terrifying about them is their Curse Power!"

"Every attack they launch is cursed; once they touch you, they'll cling to you like a leech, draining your life force."

"In other words, once you're touched by them, your lifespan will begin to decrease exponentially until you die."

"The more times it is attacked, the stronger its Curse Power becomes, and the faster it absorbs life force."

The Female Lion Man's expression was solemn, showing no disdain for the "little thing" before her despite its size.

But these words made Su Mo 'Su Mo face look strange.

Curse Power?

It drains life force? It needs to come into contact to spread? Goodness, is this thing definitely not a virus? Isn't it carrying a virus on its claws? Once infected, it quickly devours the body's cells? Whether it's the way it operates or the means of triggering, it looks exactly like a highly contagious virus.

However, upon hearing what the Female Lion Man said next, Su Mo's expression turned serious.

"But these are not the reasons for their racial strength. What's most terrifying about them is that if you kill them..."

"No matter where you are or how far away you are, you will be cursed, transcending distance and time."

"Therefore, among all races, it is this characteristic that allows them to grow rapidly and without restraint."

While listening to Clark's rambling from above, I also listened to Connie's explanation.

Su Mo has gradually gained some understanding of the alien race that he previously knew nothing about.

"No one dares to kill the Curse Tiger Race. Even the most powerful individual members of the clan would have to kneel and beg for mercy in their presence."

"Elder Su, Su Mo, although your strength rating is 29, which is stronger than the strongest royal family member, you must escape quickly against the Curse Tiger Race, the faster the better."

"Otherwise, even if you kill them, you'll still only face death!"

Now that they're in the same boat, Connie naturally speaks her mind without reservation.

He was terrified that he had just latched onto this powerful figure and, before he could even get close to him, he might impulsively fight the Curse Tiger Race and sacrifice himself in vain.

"Transmission across space?"

With a smile, Su Mo didn't reply, but while Clark and Connie were chatting, Su Mo quietly added another item to the inventory list.

Full Coverage Protective Suit!

Reason is reason, and law is law. No matter how powerful a virus is, it still has to follow the rules.

It's impossible for it to directly infect people; that would be too domineering and illogical.

Furthermore, Connie was unaware that with the Shan Hai Painting card, any damage other than immediate death would be negligible and pose no threat whatsoever to Su Mo.

After about ten minutes of what sounded like a meeting between leaders on Earth, Clark, who was sitting at the top, finally finished his rambling and began to slowly mention the Ocean Hunting Plan.

After straightening up and concentrating, Su Mo began to listen attentively.

"The ocean is about to surge, the Ocean God is about to awaken, and the chances left for us land-dwelling races are numbered!"

"The ocean covers more than 80% of the Land of Salvation. If we don't intervene, the races in the ocean will definitely obtain the Key of Salvation faster than us. Therefore, we must take action and can no longer drift along and wait for our doom."

"Therefore, the Five Great Royal Clans jointly proposed and agreed upon Ocean Hunting Plan that would benefit all land-dwelling races!"

Boom! As Clark finished speaking, a phantom golden list fell directly from the sky above the palace, crashing onto the table and unleashing a series of invisible sound waves.

Pointing to the list of successful candidates, Clark stood up.

Although his small size made him look somewhat comical, Su Mo's attention was not drawn to the list of names as the words appeared and Clark began to explain.

The Ocean Hunting Plan is divided into three phases.

[I. Human Attraction Phase]

"We have already developed a considerable number of spies within the human race. With the help of these spies, we will quickly encourage the human race to migrate in groups during the ocean migration before the arrival of the ocean. We will also send a group of races that have been trained in water to escort the human race and help them complete this process as quickly as possible!"

Two key points

"First, before the ocean is formed, the plan is to place no obstacles on any hunter race, and the Five Great Royal Clans will encourage all land-based hunter races to rapidly strengthen their racial power and make full preparations for the ocean hunting phase."

"Secondly, after the formation of the ocean, absolutely no race is allowed to intercept, hunt down, or harm humanity in any form or for any reason during the process of humanity uniting together, or disrupt the unity process. Furthermore, no other race is allowed to tip off or pass messages to humanity; otherwise, they will be permanently hunted down by the Five Great Royal Clans and all other races, until death."

After explaining the first phase of the plan, the scene paused, and Clark glared fiercely down below, displaying a certain imposing aura reminiscent of the king of beasts.

"Humans are not the focus of the hunting plan; what follows is their real target."

As the screen paused, Connie raised her hand again and waved her staff. The screen began to rotate forward again, and Clark began to narrate the Second Stage of the plan.

II. Hunting

"When all of humanity comes together, their target in the ocean will be large enough and conspicuous enough."

"Of course, it will be much more difficult for us to hunt them, but will they be our target?"

With a smile, Clark stood before the list of winners, raised his paw, and a blurred map appeared on the list.

In the center of the map, there is an enormous red dot, as dazzling as the sun hanging high in the sky.

Around the red dot are countless small blue dots, like stars beside the sun, dotting the scene.

As Clark manipulated the map, it began to evolve rapidly. Attracted by the sun, the stars quickly clustered together and gradually merged into a huge collective.

"Gentlemen, do you see these? These blue dots are the races of the ocean, our greatest enemies in the future."

"To find the Key of Salvation, we must eliminate them and reclaim control of the ocean. Otherwise, once we migrate to the New Continent like the humans, we will completely lose this vast land and the chance to complete our mission."

"Therefore, the human race is our greatest bargaining chip. As long as we can lure all these greedy marine races away, our Five Great Royal Clans will act simultaneously, summoning the great ancestral god to bestow power upon us."

"As long as we can hold them off, we'll have a chance to severely cripple them, or even wipe them out. As for the remaining humans, I, Curse Tiger Clark, guarantee that they will be distributed fairly according to each race's contribution, and all ocean territories will be unconditionally open to all land-dwelling races for exploration."

Clark smiled smugly, seemingly very satisfied with his plan.

With that smile, the Second Stage of the video slowly came to a stop, giving Su Mo ample time to think.

"Excellent, excellent. This plan does indeed have far fewer loopholes. If we follow his suggestion, it's not entirely impossible."

"I never expected there to be such intelligent people among alien races!"

As expected, upon seeing that the alien race's target was indeed not human, Su Mo, sitting at the lower end of the table, smiled without much change in expression.

Clark and the so-called Five Great Royal Clans did indeed have a good plan and made accurate calculations.

Under his two-step plan, barring any unforeseen circumstances, humanity will undoubtedly band together and head to the New Continent, just as planned.

But what he didn't know was that the source of human fear was mostly due to insufficient firepower! He was even less aware of just how terrifying the fighting power could be when the human population reached a certain level.

"Don't look at me, keep going. His plan is nothing to worry about. Just follow me, and I'll show you what I'm capable of."

"What do you mean by 'truth exists only within the range of cannons'!"

Thinking of the mountains of cotton in the warehouse and the Vertical Missile Launching Device in the garage, Su Mo reached out and patted Connie on the shoulder with a hearty gesture.

The video continued playing, and Clark kept the third phase of the plan a secret, saying he would let them know when the time came, before he started rambling on.

"In the third phase, if nothing unexpected happens, I suspect they will definitely target Ocean God."

Hearing Connie's speculation, Su Mo nodded.

After completing the first two phases, the only remaining objectives, besides the New Continent, are Ocean God.

It is highly likely that, with the so-called "ancestral god," the Five Great Royal Clans would not be satisfied with just the Ocean God Envoy.

It's not surprising that the Ocean God would be included in their hunting plans.

"The plan isn't complicated, but that's precisely why it will be easier for the simple-minded alien race to execute."

"Since there are traitors among humans, there must also be alien traitors within the official ranks. Everyone's just playing double agents. I suspect the Five Great Royal Clans are well aware of this, but the plan they proposed does indeed benefit humanity."

"Furthermore, the fact that no official voices have come out to oppose this on the World Channel suggests that the human authorities are also plotting something, hoping to use this opportunity to launch a counterattack?"

"As expected, no race is stupid, and the human leadership is not like the incompetent fools depicted in Earth's novels, who need the protagonist to save the world."

"It won't be long before this grand drama in the wasteland finally begins!"

After quickly assessing the current situation, Su Mo, sitting at the table, became agitated by the traitor's instigation of the human gathering.

This time, Su Mo not only doesn't intend to stop it, but also plans to fuel the flames.

From the birth of the ocean to the resurgence of the Ocean Alien Race, there are four days in total.

From the resurgence of the Ocean Alien Race to the gathering of all humanity and the subsequent hunt by the Ocean Alien Race, this period, even if short, would take at least seven days.

7+411 days! During these 11 days, in the plan of the Land Alien Race, the human race is absolutely safe and will not suffer any harm.

And this is exactly what Su Mo wants to see! "At my speed, it only takes me 7-10 days to rendezvous with the tundra, which is just in time to pick up my sister during the period when the alien races don't harm humans."

"With no worries about the rear, and relying on the destroyers, I want to see what in this ocean can stop me!"

Thinking to himself, Su Mo couldn't help but feel secretly pleased with Clark's plan, and even gave it a thumbs up.

Connie, standing nearby, felt reassured by his appearance.

"By Lion God, Connie decision this time was absolutely brilliant!"

"Su Old Devil truly lives up to his reputation as a formidable figure at level 29. It seems that following him this time was the right decision!"

"When the time comes, we'll ride on Su Old Devil's ship, and once the ocean arrives, we'll head straight for the New Continent. Even if the fighting gets fierce later, it won't concern us."

"The Lion-Man race will be reborn and flourish again in my hands, Connie!"

Inside the palace, poor Clark was still grumbling on top of the wall.

But at the lower end, the man and the lion, in the instant their eyes met, both saw the irrepressible smile in each other's eyes.

"Live well!"

"Let's do it together!"

Holding hands, the next moment, in this empty palace, the unrestrained laughter of the man and the lion finally burst forth!
