Who Doesn't Have Connections?

In the 240th year of the Imperial Calendar, the Empire was still engaged in multi-front wars.

A small group in the West annexed the territory of the French Eagles, and then took over smaller countries, while the East declared war on the Head Wolf and 005.

In the previous battle, the leader of the Wolves and 005 Wall Breaker fought together, but were defeated by the Empire's main force and suffered heavy losses.

Of course, the most casualties were among the 005 Wall Breaker; the main force of the Head Wolf was not here.

Sequence 038 Leader of Wolves, along with the Southern Yi Jing and other nations, launched a protracted war against Sequence 008 True Ancestor.

Why?

Because 008 is the only fifth-tier being on this continent.

Moreover, his ability happens to be the creation of familiars.

It's important to know that 008's family members are practically immortal, not to mention that 008 also possesses the Philosopher's Stone, which allows him to modify not only himself but also his family members.

Therefore, his abilities were naturally limited.

008 is unable to use the Philosopher's Stone's power, and the familiars he creates cannot inherit the perfect evolution that 008 has already overcome to overcome his own flaws.

Simply put, 008's retinue inherited the weaknesses of the previous Blood Clan.

Weak light, weak fire, weak mithril.

With these three weaknesses added on, the once invincible Blood Clan army became hampered and constrained.

In particular, a group of countries led by the I Ching launched a joint crackdown on 008, Sequence 038 Leader of Wolves was among them.

In this game, eliminating the higher-ranking beings first has become a consensus among the lower-ranking players.

It's hard to say who started this trend, but it might be wrong, right?

A small number of people believe that the dispersal of Tier 5 units across the country was intended to allow units below Tier 5 to form alliances around the local Tier 5 units, thereby declaring war on other Tier 5 alliances.

However, this claim was refuted by 009 alone.

After that, they fought 008 for countless years, but despite this, they were never able to defeat 008. However, they did effectively limit one of 008's usual tactics.

What methods does 008 typically use?

Everyone knows this perfectly well: the high- Blood Clan and instigating internal rebellions is 008's most common tactic.

Previously, the King of Yi Jing had been assassinated by the Blood Clan, but fortunately, Yi Jing had taken precautions, otherwise the vampires would have succeeded.

"The methods of the Blood Clan are so difficult to guard against that there are no secrets in this world. Simply being on guard is never the solution."

"After all, how can you guard against thieves for a thousand days if you're a thief for a thousand days?"

Offense and defense are never balanced; the attacking side holds the initiative, while the defending side can only respond passively.

Therefore, the best approach is not to defend, but to take the initiative to attack. If he invades, we invade him in return.

Adhering to this idea, the Book of Changes explained to the various countries the hidden dangers of guarding against thieves for a thousand days, which ultimately created the situation where 008 was surrounded on all sides.

This situation has lasted for more than eighty years, but the emergence of 009 has gradually broken this situation.

009 is launching an attack on the leader of the wolf pack. If the Sequence 038 Leader of Wolves pack is defeated, a gap will appear in the encirclement of 008.

The plan for joint sanctions will fail.

If 008 and 009 were to form an alliance at this point and turn around and bite back, all the countries here would probably be finished.

The Sequence 038 Leader of Wolves is considering countermeasures. His main force is on the border of the Sequence 008 True Ancestor, while 009 attacks from behind and blows his backside.

005 couldn't stop 009's army, so no matter what 038 did, it was a dead end.

"If I maintain the status quo, the empire can easily advance into my territory from the rear."

"If I send half of my main force back, I'm not sure I can completely defeat the Imperial Army unless I send all of my main force there."

"But if all the main forces are mobilized, then it'll be the True Ancestor's turn to ravage my rear. I'm caught between a rock and a hard place..."

However, this situation is not entirely unsolvable.

Regardless of what 005 the Wall Breaker is like, there is at least one person whose army is certain to be able to clash with the Imperial Army!

Moreover, that person harbors deep hatred for 009, so persuading him to take action wouldn't be difficult. However, the leader of the pack really doesn't want to see that guy.

"Fine, let's meet anyway."

Several days later.

The leader of the wolf pack dispatched men from the east to the White Frost Empire, the third most powerful military nation on the Outer Sea Continent.

The leader of the wolf pack followed the dispatched envoy to the capital of the Frost Empire.

They met with the Sequence 016 Frost King, who was said to be the strongest fourth-tier warrior.

The Frost King sat high in the palace, his long black hair flowing freely, his crystal-blue eyes revealing no warmth whatsoever.

The leader of the wolf pack appeared before the Frost King in his most ordinary human form.

The leader of the pack is a werewolf himself, possessing abilities similar to those of the Deep One, allowing him to switch freely between human and werewolf forms.

When the leader of the pack appeared before the Frost King, the Frost King showed a hint of impatience.

Before the Frost King could speak, the Wolf King interjected, "Third Uncle, you really have to help me this time!"

"That 009 is incredibly arrogant now, threatening that once he destroys me, you'll be next. When I heard that, I was furious and rolled up my sleeves, ready to fight him!"

"But..."

"It's not that I'm afraid of him, nor that I can't beat him, but I'm just too busy to deal with everything. That True Ancestor is a tough nut to crack."

"You know, Third Uncle, if I turn around and fight 009 now, the True Ancestor will take my life!"

"Third Uncle, I know you look down on me, but as the saying goes, blood is thicker than water, and we are, after all..."

That's enough.

The Frost King suddenly interrupted the leader of the wolves, though he didn't want to admit it, 038 was indeed his nephew.

In the early years, before the Frost King betrayed the Chaos Splitter, 038 voluntarily gave up his human identity and became Blood Clan.

What happened afterward is unclear to the Frost King, but somehow this guy somehow ended up in a sequence. This world has truly gone mad.

To be honest, the Frost King didn't care whether he lived or died, nor did he want to get involved.

This guy wouldn't listen to reason before and always went his own way.

Especially when the Nine-Tailed Fox and Chaos were besieging Sequence 008 True Ancestor, he inexplicably became Blood Clan at this critical juncture.

It's truly a miracle that he survived several subsequent extermination attempts by the Nine-Tailed Fox.

038 also knew that the Frost King didn't want to help him, but the person who came this time was very clever.

The person who came was 009.

You should know that even without 038, Frost King would still go after 009.

038 handled this very well. Frost King's desire to kill 009 was premeditated. If it weren't for 009's immortality, Frost King would have torn him apart long ago.

Previously, Frost King could not avoid the issue of his immortality.

But now, that's no longer a problem.

It's easy to kill 009 now; just get him out of the game.

009's military strength currently ranks second on the Outer Sea Continent, while Frost King is third, but that doesn't mean Frost King can't deal with him.

The Frost King's ability is also to create familiars.

The White Walkers are his unique retinue, but his retinue can only be formed from the dead.

This has one advantage and one disadvantage.

The downside is that he cannot produce a large number of dependents during peacetime unless he slaughters his own people.

The advantage is that once war breaks out, all those who die in the war will become his subjects.
