"Error erased."
Feng Qiya Continent deployed more than three thousand Flying Boat.
Dozens of these Flying Boat carried Level-20 Heavenly Dao Cannon and were responsible for the main bombing.
The remaining Flying Boat were filled with ground troops and a batch of Eerie Fire.
Their plan.
Their plan was to first quickly destroy most of the "New Continent" and then attempt to occupy it. After all, they didn't know how to obtain the "Continent Core," and were just trying to figure it out. If that didn't work, they would then try to destroy all the other parts of the New Continent.
But since it is named the Continent Core.
That must be related to the mainland. No matter how much trouble it goes on, it's bound to be connected to the mainland.
It can't be called "Continent Core" but actually be dropped by killing Strange Entities, can it?
When these more than three thousand Flying Boat were traveling at full speed, almost touching the sea surface, and finally the outline of the New Continent could be faintly seen on the sea, their grand plan was only one step away from success.
An accident has occurred.
A dozen or so Flying Boat, disguised as the "Dark Eerie Continent," took off and met them. Without any conversation or warning, they quickly formed a long, straight line, and the Heavenly Dao Cannon on board began to roar.
A dozen or so Blazing Pillar, as if announcing to the world that this was Mortal Domain, enveloped all three thousand-plus Flying Boat, like a mischievous child erasing mistakes from a draft paper.
Error Eradication.
Feng Qiya Continent was thus easily erased.
From the perspective of the Second-Level Continent.
The Level-20 Heavenly Dao Cannon is the most lethal weapon.
Almost no defense can withstand an attack of this magnitude. In a battle of Heavenly Dao Cannon, the outcome often depends on who strikes first. The advantage of striking first is amplified here. You must attack the other; if you don't, it's impossible to retaliate after being attacked.
Even Level-10 City Wall couldn't stop the Heavenly Dao Cannon.
Not to mention Flying Boat.
The three thousand Flying Boat were easily wiped out, leaving only a few dozen Trace-Free in the sky.
The shores of the New Continent.
The moment the Heavenly Dao Cannon was activated, the Flying Boat self-destructed, and everyone on Flying Boat was evacuated back to the New Continent via Teleportation Formation, where they stood on the shore and witnessed this extremely expensive fireworks display.
The Mortal Domain possesses a Dark Technology.
"Dark Technology Name": Ammunition Consumption.
"Dark Technology Effect": All weapons, buildings, etc. produced within the territory have their Ammunition Consumption reduced by 10%.
The New Continent is also within the sphere of influence of the Mortal Domain, so it can naturally enjoy this effect as well.
The cost of the Heavenly Dao Cannon has been significantly reduced.
Even so.
It also consumed a lot.
The Heavenly Dao Cannon isn't expensive to build, but each shot requires 500 million Eerie Stone. Even with a 10% reduction, it still costs 450 million Eerie Stone. This time, it consumed about 6 billion Eerie Stone in the battle against the enemy.
Unable to recoup costs.
There was virtually no way to recoup the costs until the war was completely over.
This is the cruelty of war.
Every continent desires development and avoids war, and the Mortal Domain is no exception. With 6 billion Eerie Stone, he managed to acquire a level 1 "Black Abyss," but could only mine 10 billion Eerie Stone.
But.
Things didn't go as planned.
There will always be those who are blind to the danger and will repeatedly provoke us. This battle must be fought in order to usher in development.
Throwing a punch is for better self-cultivation.
Constantly avoiding confrontation will only make you more and more passive.
Chen Fan stood on the City Wall of New Continent No. 1 Outpost, quietly watching this scene. He picked up the Message Talisman in his hand and whispered, "Launch." Then...
Another order was added.
"The Commerce Pavilion is mobilized."
The most brutal phase of this war is yet to come.
Transcontinental warfare.
Both logistical support and personnel support are extremely challenging for the Mortal Domain, but this is not the time to worry about that. The cost of war cannot be considered solely from the perspective of the Eerie Stone.
The next moment!
Located Behind Nameless Mountain on the Eternal Night Continent, the "Missile Base" has fourteen Level-20 Sky-Piercing Pillar, which store the power of the Heavenly Dao Cannon, beginning to vibrate rapidly and slowly rise into the air.
The countless Strange Entities that surrounded the entire "Eternal Night Continent" subconsciously looked up, watching the fourteen Sky-Piercing Pillar rise into the sky until they disappeared into the distance.
Until it ascends to an altitude of 20,000 meters.
Only then did they begin to speed towards the "Feng Qiya Continent" at high altitude.
This is the first step in the Mortal Domain's counterattack.
This is just the beginning.
The moment all the Flying Boat on the Feng Qiya Continent were destroyed, the Elderly Man kneeling in the ancestral hall knew that the plan had failed again, and he kept his head buried in the ground, unwilling to get up.
He didn't know how to handle what was to come.
What follows will be a furious counterattack from the Mortal Domain.
At this moment, his only hope was that the Mortal Domain did not have so many Sky-Piercing Pillar stored up.
In Coastal Area.
The place where the "Mortal Domain" is stationed.
At this moment, the members of the Shadow Pavilion who remained here had fled to the edge of a cliff, behind which lay a vast expanse of water tens of meters high—a dead end. And not far away...
Several Flying Boat hovered in the air, surrounded by nearly a hundred people. One of them slowly stepped forward and tried his best to persuade them, "Heroes, there is no way to escape from here."
"I can guarantee you that once you're back, you'll be treated to the best food and drink, and you'll never be subjected to any torture." "For the sake of all the days we've spent together, can you give me some face?"
"Huff, huff."
The man, with his sharp features and fierce expression, stood on the edge of the cliff, now covered in wounds and panting heavily, half-bent over, his hand holding Dagger, which he could no longer grip firmly due to his trembling arm.
But he felt no despair at all; instead, he grinned and was extremely happy.
"Hello!"
"The little brats of the Feng Qiya Continent."
"I have received the news that your Feng Qiya Continent dispatched three thousand Flying Boat to attack our New Continent, but they were all wiped out and never returned."
"Now you're starting to get scared, scared of our Mortal Domain's counterattack, and you're preparing to use us as a bargaining chip, right?"
"Where the hell were you before?"
He pointed the Dagger -shaped armband at his chest with his Dagger: "See that? That's the symbol of the Mortal Domain Shadow Pavilion. Go out and ask around, which member of the Mortal Domain Shadow Pavilion is a coward?"
The man, panting heavily, looked at the group of the Shadow Pavilion members following behind him, his gaze finally settling on Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba. He couldn't help but laugh again. "Pavilion Master Qiu once said of me that I'm ruthless on the outside but kind on the inside, and that I'd eventually fall for that."
"I never imagined my words would come true."
"I should have made you both obediently return to the Mortal Domain 'Punishment Hall to receive your punishment back then. I shouldn't have begged for your mercy and vouched for you. Otherwise, you wouldn't be in this predicament with me."
"Hey-hey."
Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba exchanged a glance and then laughed in unison, "Luckily we didn't go back, otherwise we would have regretted missing such an important event for the rest of our lives." "Never mind."
The man glanced at the nearly one hundred people slowly approaching, licked his dry lips, and suddenly missed the braised pork Braised Delicacies made by Zhao Shengping, the Pavilion Master the Mortal Domain Artifact Pavilion. He hadn't had it in a long time and had originally planned to buy more and enjoy Braised Delicacies to his heart's content after returning from his shift.
If I had known, I would have asked someone to bring some over when the Mortal Domain Flying Boat came last time.
I just thought that Jiangbei Braised Delicacies offal tastes best when it's fresh out of the pot and hot, so I didn't try it.
"Brothers."
"I think none of you want to be thrown to the negotiating table and put the Mortal Domain in a difficult position, right?"
"Even if you manage to go back alive, will you be able to hold your heads high in front of your colleagues?"
"Mortal Domain?"
"Then you definitely won't be able to lift your head." Xiao Qi chuckled, twirling the Dagger in his hand. "Boss, you know me, I've always been concerned about my image."
"Me too, face is more important than anything."
"Good."
This man, with his sharp features and fierce expression, who had almost never smiled in his life, now even showed a somewhat unrestrained smile. He took a deep breath, ignoring the pain from his injuries, and roared with exhilarating joy.
"You little brats, listen up!"
"I'm going first!"
Hell awaits you.
"I hope you will like the way the Domain Lord does things."
"Everyone, listen up!"
"He committed suicide and returned to heaven!"
The next moment!
The man's arm suddenly stopped trembling, and with extreme decisiveness and without holding back, he slashed his own neck, then, before his consciousness faded, stabbed himself several more times in the heart.
Only then did they take a step back.
His body fell freely through the air and crashed heavily into the Sea behind him, filled with splashing waves.
"Hey-hey."
Xiao Qi smiled again, then waved one last time at the panicked group rushing towards them. "Let's go, see you in Hell." Almost instantly, everyone slashed their own necks, plunged into their hearts, took a step back, and free-fall into the sea.
"That's great."
During the free fall, Xiao Qi's consciousness was rapidly fading, but a trace of awareness remained. He vaguely saw many people standing on the edge of the cliff, looking towards him with anxious expressions.
The enemy's pain is his pleasure.
He suddenly felt an urge to laugh again and raise his middle finger to mock the incompetence of the person opposite him.
I just didn't have the strength left.
Life was slipping away faster than he had imagined.
He suddenly regretted coming to the Feng Qiya Continent too early; the Soul Thunder hadn't been given to him yet. Otherwise, there should have been a fireworks display right now, which would have been much more spectacular.
Hopefully, the Domain Lord won't overthink it this time.
Let's fuck him.
New Continent.
Although Chen Fan was furious, he still retained his rationality. Sitting in the command room, he pointed to the "Heavenly Derivation Sand Table" on the table and issued the Battle Plan: "The terrain of the Feng Qiya Continent has been roughly drawn these past few days."
It is a mulberry-shaped continent, relatively long and narrow overall.
"It's only 700 kilometers wide, but 9,000 kilometers long."
"Fourteen Nuclear Warhead -tipped Sky-Piercing Pillar have been launched and are expected to arrive in about Incense Stick. The bombardment targets important areas known to be in recent days, such as strategic City and dense Anti-Aircraft Cannon."
"And"
"No more important information about the Feng Qiya Continent has been overheard these days, which means that the Feng Qiya Continent has taken precautions and may be using coded language."
"We don't know much about the Feng Qiya Continent."
"This is disadvantageous for us."
The following is a preliminary Battle Plan.
"The Sky-Piercing Pillar will bombard important areas within the Feng Qiya Continent of the Feng Qiya Continent, plunging it into a state of war."
"As the Commerce Pavilion's Flying Boat approaches the Feng Qiya Continent, the Mortal Domain will begin bombarding the Northern Region Coast areas of the Feng Qiya Continent. This will ensure the Eradication of the vast majority of its personnel, as well as Anti-Aircraft Cannon, defensive lines, and other defensive structures."
"Next, King Mazi, you need to lead the Commerce Pavilion to land in the Northern Region part of the 'Feng Qiya Continent,' which has been cleared out. I will land with you." "Quickly lay down enough Eerie Fire along the Northern Region Coastal Area and construct a 700-kilometer-long City Wall within that area."
"Thirty- Level-20 Heavenly Dao Cannon are mounted on this City Wall."
"Then they opened fire, completely Eradication the Feng Qiya Continent."
Are there any objections to the plan?
The words had barely left his mouth.
The Meeting Room was completely silent.
Everyone knew clearly that the Domain Lord was truly angry this time, and more angry than ever before.
The power of the Heavenly Dao Cannon is concentrated in the "Sky-Piercing Pillar," resulting in a concentrated burst of damage with immense power.
The Heavenly Dao Cannon is mounted on a "Flying Boat" and can be moved at any time, but its use will result in the destruction of the boat and the death of the crew.
In fact.
These two methods of use are, in themselves, alternative applications of the Heavenly Dao Cannon.
The only true way to use the Heavenly Dao Cannon is to place it on the City Wall.
Only then can it be truly activated.
The Max-Level Effect: "All Things Are Straw Dogs, Heaven and Earth Share Longevity."
As well as.
The Golden Light Pillar will be 20 kilometers wide and infinitely long, until it reaches the edge of the continent.
In other words...
Once the plan succeeds.
Along the 700-kilometer Coastal Area of the "Feng Qiya Continent," a 700-kilometer-long City Wall was built, and 35 Heavenly Dao Cannon were installed. Once these 35 Heavenly Dao Cannon were activated simultaneously, it would be as easy as Eradication grease stains with a rag stained with pig feed; with a light wipe, the Feng Qiya Continent would cease to exist.
No one survived.
This is a plan of extermination.
A moment later.
Little Qiu, the Pavilion Master of the Logistics Pavilion, finally spoke, "I request that all the 'Ghost-Stone Storage Bag' purchased from the Dark Eerie Continent be deployed to this battlefield. This plan will consume a large number of Eerie Stone, and I will need the full support of the Heavenly Storehouse Pavilion."
"The logistics personnel were assembled last night and are ready to land on the Feng Qiya Continent at any time, together with the Commerce Pavilion."
"That's fine."
Chen Fan nodded, then looked at the others.
After thinking for a while, the others shook their heads to indicate that they had no objections.
"Good."
"Official action."
Just then
Upon receiving the message, Shao Qiu's expression changed slightly, and he said hoarsely, "Domain Lord, all the Shadow Pavilion members left behind on the Feng Qiya Continent have perished." "The Feng Qiya Continent wanted to capture them alive to increase their negotiating leverage, but... they voluntarily committed suicide at sea."
"They specifically stated that they didn't kill the people; they just wanted to invite our people to dinner, but our people insisted on committing suicide by jumping into the sea." "The Life Tablet have all been shattered."
Chen Fan slowly closed his eyes. He was now in battle mode and couldn't let these matters affect his emotions and lead to wrong judgments. After a brief pause, he whispered, "Understood."
"Battle Plan continues."
"There's one more thing. Feng Qiya Continent, saying they are willing to pay sufficient war reparations for this offense and hope that both sides can sit down and have a proper talk."
"The amount given was 30 billion Eerie Stone."
"And I guarantee this time it will definitely be High-Grade Eerie Stone delivery."
"Good."
He couldn't help but laugh, a cold glint in his eyes. Did they really think he, Chen Fan a pushover, coming over to punch him for no reason and then demanding compensation?
Again and again.
This time.
We don't need the compensation.
You'd better pay with your life.
"The Dark Eerie Continent"
The inhabitants of this continent are not humans, but Giant Black Rat who live underground and have established a nation, not called "Rat Kingdom."
Its main business is trade.
In the underground Great Hall.
The Rat Kingdom King sat on his Throne, staring in horror at the Red Mark on the wall in front of him that had almost simultaneously perished. This meant that all three thousand Flying Boat sent out by the Feng Qiya Continent had been Eradication in an instant.
This proves more than just the strength of the Mortal Domain.
It also proved that...
The methods used by Mortal Domain to gather intelligence seem to be no less effective than theirs.
But.
It seems he still doesn't regret his decision. Their Dark Eerie Continent maintains absolute neutrality and actively learns from the outside world.
For example.
Their "Dark Eerie Continent" wasn't originally 98% occupied by Strange Entities; rather, they struggled to resist Strange Entities before discovering the "Waist-Rat Continent."
They were rats, just like them.
However, they are the Giant Black Rat, while the Ratmost Continent is dominated by the Exposed Rats. The Skeleton Rat Continent deliberately allowed 98% of its territory to be occupied by Strange Entities, only defending a small area, which greatly reduced the pressure.
Those Strange Entities that have already landed will form a natural barrier, preventing other Strange Entities from landing.
He suddenly realized that the black rats, like the filthy rats, lived underground. So why not leave the surface to the Strange Entities? This would greatly reduce the defensive pressure and provide them with a natural barrier.
That's how you learn by example.
But now.
"Walk."
The Rat Kingdom King, seated on his Throne, suddenly rose, his eyes narrowing slightly as he looked at his kneeling Subordinate: "The Mortal Domain is likely to launch a counterattack. Let's go to the Feng Qiya Continent and take a closer look."
"Bring some gifts over."
"We need to reassess the strength of the Mortal Domain."
Just then
"Oh?"
He looked at the Map with some surprise. Many Red Mark were starting to head towards the Feng Qiya Continent, which meant that quite a few people knew about this news. How strange.
He was able to know about the military movements on the Feng Qiya Continent because the Flying Boat on the Feng Qiya Continent had his "Acceleration Formation Disc." How did the other continents know?
It seems we still can't underestimate the other continents.
Snakes have their ways, rats have their ways; each has its own methods.
"That's going to be quite lively."
"This area of Sea Domain has never seen so many people from the mainland gather together before. Good, now we don't need to find any excuses; we can just openly go and watch the battle."
The Rat Kingdom King had a slightly complicated expression.
He once wanted all the continents in the nearby Sea Domain to send someone with influence to gather together for a roundtable meeting on the theme of common development.
He sent a bunch of gifts for this.
He believed that the Dark Eerie Continent had considerable influence, and indeed many continents had agreed to his requests, but it was always difficult to gather everyone together. Unexpectedly...
Now, there's no one organizing it at all; these people from the mainland have just sent themselves.
Even the "Ratlike Continent" sent people.
This continent has always only cared about its own little corner of the world and never paid attention to the outside world. I didn't expect it to have the means to obtain information from the outside world. It doesn't seem as harmless as it appears on the surface.
Certainly.
It's definitely impossible for them to all get together in a short time; the journey is long, and it will take at least several days for them to meet.
The New Continent is a full 14,000 kilometers away from the "Feng Qiya Continent".
The "Flying Boat" will take five days to reach its destination even at full speed.
The moment the Battle Plan was finalized.
More than a thousand Mortal Domain Flying Boat, carrying a large number of Eerie Stone, Eerie Fire, Soul-Devouring Sculpture, Copper Pipe, Heavenly Dao Cannon, Altar, and other buildings and resources, began their journey to the "Feng Qiya Continent".
The counterattack begins.
Chen Fan also personally came to the front line, on one of the Flying Boat.
It was the second day, and in three more days they would arrive at the "Feng Qiya Continent." He stood quietly on the deck, gazing at the empty ocean around him. Two days.
This did not Composure him down; instead, it fueled his anger, an anger that needed to be quelled by war.
The Mortal Domain is unwilling to go to war.
But this does not mean that the Mortal Domain dares not start a war.
Since he brought these resources out of the Mortal Domain, he had no intention of taking them back; he'd rather leave them here.
"Domain Lord."
Standing beside him, Wang Kui quickly reported, "Yesterday, we launched 14 'Sky-Piercing Pillar' carrying Nuclear Warhead warheads towards the Feng Qiya Continent, and then there was no further action. The Feng Qiya Continent has been sending us peace-seeking messages continuously, but we have not responded."
He didn't know what Nuclear Warhead was.
However, he knew that there was a Sky-Piercing Pillar in the Mortal Domain that could store the power of the Heavenly Dao Cannon. The Domain Lord liked to call it the Sky-Piercing Pillar carrying Nuclear Warhead, so he followed suit and called it that.
"Um."
Chen Fan nodded slightly but didn't respond much. He Tianyi.
That is
Why did Feng Qiya Continent launch a surprise attack on the "New Continent"?
What's the significance?
Even if they wanted to launch a surprise attack to seize the spoils, they should have waited until the two-year protection period in the Mortal Domain was over before launching a surprise attack on the Eternal Night Continent, since the Eternal Night Continent was the foundation of the Mortal Domain.
A surprise attack on the New Continent will not shake the foundation of the Mortal Domain; on the contrary, it will enrage Mortal Domain.
This has provoked public anger.
The repeated provocations from the Feng Qiya Continent have infuriated the entire Mortal Domain. If a conflict isn't fought now, it will negatively impact the Mortal Domain's momentum for rise. Furthermore, the Mortal Domain's "First Spring Examination" has already begun.
Chen Fan remained silent. According to his plan, the "First Spring Examination of the Mortal Domain" was extremely important, and he should stay in Mortal City to witness the results of the examination in the next few days. At this moment, he was on his way to the Frontline.
This feeling is like...
He went out to work the day before his wife was due to give birth.
"Let's change the topic of 'Military Strategy' to 'Faced with this provocation from the Feng Qiya Continent, should the Mortal Domain fight? If the Mortal Domain wants to counterattack, how should it formulate a sound Battle Plan, including logistics, supplies, and personnel deployment?'"
"Clear."
Wang Kui nodded solemnly. This counterattack in the Mortal Domain was a secret operation, unknown to most people. The Battle Plan was known only to a few of them, and no one else knew about it.
Eternal Night Continent, Mortal City.
The time for the First Spring Examination has arrived, and the time has not been postponed. Countless candidates line up to enter the newly built examination halls, which are large examination halls that can accommodate nearly a thousand people and stand on the Wasteland.
Like a large stadium.
Only.
Many candidates looked uneasily toward the Nameless Mountain. They already knew that Feng Qiya Continent had sent three thousand Flying Boat to prepare for a surprise attack on the New Continent, and that Zhang Taiping had risked his life to send the intelligence back.
They were considering how to deal with the Mortal Domain.
Will the Domain Lord start a war?
Don't overthink it.
A parent looked at his son and tried to reassure him, "The development of the Mortal Domain is the Domain Lord's concern. The first subject to be tested is 'Formation.' You must do your best to demonstrate your abilities so that you can secure a good position and thus contribute more to the Mortal Domain."
"Um."
"Buzz!!"
As the bell rang, candidates taking the "Formation" test entered the examination hall. Members dressed in Mortal Domain Uniform maintained order and supervised the process with Ice-Cold expressions.
After all candidates have entered the examination room.
The examiner then took out a Formation Disc from under the table.
"This Formation Disc is called the 'Acceleration Formation Disc.' It was purchased by the Mortal Domain from the 'Dark Eerie Continent.' Its effect is that when placed on Flying Boat, it can double the speed of the Flying Boat and double the rate at which Eerie Stone are consumed."
"Now, ten people per group."
"One Formation Disc per set."
"You have one hour to begin studying the principles behind this Formation Disc Formation and attempt to replicate it. The materials needed to create the Formation Disc are all nearby; please take them."
"The candidate with the highest level of accuracy in reproducing the original image should be Top Ranker."
The next moment
The examination room maintained a relatively quiet atmosphere. Teams were quickly formed, and participants went to the podium to collect their Formation Disc. Then, groups of ten began to study the Formation Disc. Meanwhile, the chief examiner...
That is, Zhang Qianqiu, the Pavilion Master the Formation Pavilion, is currently inspecting the various examination venues. He has already restored the Formation Disc to about 80%, so he estimates that the Top Ranker this time should be able to restore it to about 40% or 50%.
After all, he had studied it for a long time.
The candidates have only one hour left.
Pity
Even if it's restored to 80%, the restored Formation Disc won't have the same effect. It must be restored to 100% before it can be used. One of the tasks recently given to him by the Domain Lord is to find a way to restore this Formation Disc.
The Domain Lord really likes this Formation Disc.
However, the Domain Lord meant that such crucial items could not be purchased; they had to be controlled by ourselves. Otherwise, if someone refused to sell to us or raised the price arbitrarily, we would be at their mercy.
Especially when he discovered a hidden Locator Formation Pattern while disassembling the Formation Disc, the Domain Lord became even more reluctant to make purchases, and would carefully examine each item that was purchased.
After entering an examination room.
His gaze involuntarily fell on his son in the examination room. His son was also taking the Spring Examination. He watched him silently without going forward to disturb him.
For absolute safety.
He didn't even tell his son what the questions for this "battle formation test" were, nor had he given any prior hints, and he hadn't let his son touch the Formation Disc.
He set the questions for the exam.
But.
He didn't want to cheat. If he really cheated, his son wouldn't need to take the Spring Examination to enter the Formation Pavilion. He also wanted to see how much his son could learn from him.
"Pavilion Master Zhang."
Upon seeing Zhang Qianqiu enter, the examiner in charge of the examination room hurriedly stood up and bowed in a low voice.
"Sit."
Zhang Qianqiu waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to get up, but at that moment, he suddenly paused slightly. In his son's group, one of the examinees had already begun... attempting to create Formation Disc?
His brows furrowed slightly.
This candidate is a bit impatient. The exam has only been going on for less than the time it takes for Incense Stick to burn, and you haven't even figured out the Formation Pattern yet. At this point, trying to create Formation Disc is destined to be a fruitless endeavor.
It also consumes a lot of materials.
The materials used to create a set of Formation Disc are fixed.
This means...
My son's grades might also be affected and won't be very good.
