CHAPTER 1588: CHAPTER 293: WORLD WAR

Without supplies, they grow their own locally. In any case, they must hold their ground.

That’s not all.

On the 6th day, the Fierce Mountain Land Volunteers coordinated with the Empire Flame Expeditionary Army, crossing the Great Desert, targeting the Tengyan Territory. The next day, the King of Tengyan had to convene an internal meeting of the Nemasis Bloodline, gathering allied forces to face the enemy.

On the 8th day, the Seven Cities Alliance formally declared participation in the war, with the Tranquil Sea Fleet reaching Red Gorge, blockading twelve ports. On the same day, Steep Ridge Fortress revealed their trump card—giant Polarized Combat Colossi over eighty meters tall emerged from the depths of the earth, having secretly dug an underground passage thousands of meters beneath the ground, bypassing the Empire’s defenses and penetrating deep into the Northern Five Earldoms.

On the 11th day, a diplomatic envoy from the Fiery Flame Land visited Far Shore Island.

On the 15th day, the Silent Fleet of Far Shore Island appeared around the coastal waters of the Seven Cities Alliance. Meanwhile, the Azure Sky Royal Court’s Chase Army blockaded Canaan-Moore Hanging Valley Fortress, and the tribes and nations of the Nine Cold Quiet Mountains announced the formation of the Cold Mountain Federation, forming an alliance with the Azure Sky Royal Court, joining the war against the Empire and the Canaan Moore Alliance.

Up until now, on the Terra Continent, except for the chaotic Dark Mountain Fortress Nations, the perpetually neutral City of Knowledge, and the still silent Frontier Lands, all prominent powers on the continent have become involved in the Great Terra War.

The Setar Empire-Canaan Moore Alliance faces off against the Azure Sky Royal Court-Cold Mountain Alliance. Meanwhile, the Empire aims to suppress the Fiery Flame Land and Steep Ridge Fortress, while the Azure Sky Royal Court also seeks to block Gantreignum’s southward advance.

Both major alliances need to be wary of Yanjiang’s movements, out of respect for the former overlords of the continent, and to prevent either side from aligning with their powerful neighbor, as the Dwarves remain vigilant against this formidable adversary.

Far Shore Island and the longstanding rivals the Seven Cities Alliance ultimately met in the Tranquil Sea, while the Outer Flamefly Region on the continent’s edge finally welcomed the first batch of ’land-rent guests’ from Far Shore Island. This is a compelled cooperation and contribution, but apparently, even with a final victory, the Fiery Flame Land will have to pay a price.

The fires of war burn across both land and sea.

On August 21st, the Empire Floating Sky City Yuanjiang arrived at the border of the Heavenly Flood Lands and Clear Thunder Lands, guided by the Empire’s ’Azure Cloud’ and ’Step Flame’ Knight Orders. The three kings of Tianhong, Qingting, and Desolate Sea, along with their two Fourth Level Crown Princes, totaling five Fourth Level faced off against the two Knight Order Captains and the Empire’s Second Prince Michael, who personally led the forces from the city.

A total of eight Fourth Levels and one strategic floating city started the bloody battle above the Lante Great Forest.

After a three-day bloody battle, the first floating city in Terra’s history fell, and the Lante Great Forest was completely turned into history.

Thick black smoke shot into the atmosphere, and even from an outer space perspective, one could see a dark, crimson glow smoldering in that realm.

The Azure Cloud Knights’ leader was severely wounded by King Qingting Seth Abasalom, retreating with Michael’s cover, but the Step Flame Knights’ leader, with the help of the hidden deputy commander of the inspection knights ’Frost Trace,’ at the cost of his own severe injuries, shattered the Aether True Body of King Tianhong Cardo Abasalom.

In the afternoon, King Tianhong Cardo perished, passing the throne to Crown Prince Furman Abasalom, becoming the first Fourth Level to fall in this war.

The fall of the floating city caused the Empire’s offensive to suffer a setback, eventually being forced out of the Heavenly Flood Lands. Yet this was already an incredible achievement, as the Empire Legion contracted around the original Abasarom Fortress Group, quietly waiting for the arrival of the second floating city.

In just a short month, on the battlefield between the Empire and the Fiery Flame Land alone, over fifty thousand have perished, with more than fifteen thousand beginner Sublimators dying in battle.

This figure does not include seventy-one Second Level Sublimators, five Third Levels, and one Fourth Level.

The ’Wartime Sublimator Cultivation Method’ had already been in effect for some time, rapidly producing beginner Sublimators from among the surviving veterans after the first battle. The ’Wartime Sublimator’ corps began to appear, signifying the intensification of the war.

History rolls forward relentlessly, never looking back.

As all nations are entangled in multilayered battlefronts, the Empire’s citizens, early influenced by propaganda and brutality, gradually came to understand the reality of being ’part of the Empire.’

Also, with the pre-installed preparations of the terminal network and floating city system construction, many came to realize that the seemingly invincible floating city from the propaganda was about to be built in their homeland.

In the midst of endless cheers and expectations, various territories began their floating city construction plans, progressing at different rates, yet all steadily moving forward.

Silverpeak Domain was no exception.

On August 25th, in the Empire’s Southern Ridges, Silverpeak Domain, the initial structure of the Great Snow Peak Holy Land was completed, and the Fairy Den was relocated with the assistance of Frozen Fish Tutor.

Ian initially planned to discuss with Frozen Fish Tutor and Hua’an Shuangdie matters regarding the five Spirit Energies and floating city site selection, but before that, he received another piece of news.

The Dragon Kings had concluded the review on the Abyssal Dragon.

Moreover, due to the world war and the Abyssal Dragon, the other two Dragon Kings also awoke at this time.
