Terror Forest now had two million players. If all the system residents and soldiers were included, the number still exceeded three million. If the various player factions added in their own soldiers as well, Great Qin still would not dare launch an attack lightly.
This attack could be considered a failure, and the three major system main cities had shifted from an offensive posture to a defensive one.
