Chapter 168 War preparations, exploring the void
As Su Xingyu woke up from his slumber, the glory of the **** once again covered the entire empire, and his instructions were also conveyed to the empire through the divine religion.
Unsurprisingly, conquest and expansion will become the next main theme of the empire.
Having said that, the empire did not immediately send a large army to take action, but began to slowly operate and prepare for war.
After all, the current Eternal Night Empire has hundreds of millions of people alone. If servants and affiliated tribes are added, the number will be even more outrageous.
They are no longer the small force with only a few hundred thousand people in the tribal period a few decades ago.
In the past, when there were few people, we didn''t need to think so much. We could just point the generals to lead the troops, rush over and do it. We won the battle and lost the battle.
That cannot be the case now.
The empire''s huge size means that no matter what they do, it will have a huge impact, let alone a war.
War, especially total war, will affect the operation of the entire force.
Otherwise, it is basically impossible to win.
??If the strength is weaker, that is, the players who could not even survive the third wave of monsters at the beginning, they will either have to join forces with multiple people to jointly resist the crisis, or they will rely on the big boss.
In this way, after promotion, you will be able to take care of yourself.
Not to mention, their opponents this time are also different from the forces they have encountered before.
The Hundred-Nation Alliance is a very powerful super force. Even though they are just an alliance, the forces of all countries are not fully integrated.
This is unimaginable in the elementary realm.
If the rear is not arranged well, the entire empire will have big problems.
He was checking the world information channel to understand the situation of other players and the current situation in the middle realm.
?The Hundred Nations Alliance is not a unified empire, but it is almost inevitable that they will unite under the pressure of external threats.
?These two data alone are enough to make ordinary forces shed tears.
After this period of development, the promoted players have completely established themselves in the unfamiliar void of the middle realm.
So, they will not waste time on the World Information Channel. If they have any questions that they don’t understand, they can go directly to their own organization and ask. If that doesn’t work, they can also buy it from an information merchant.
The vast territory and huge population represent fault tolerance and confidence.
During the period of promotion to the medium realm, the frequency of conflicts between players has decreased a lot.
?But when you think about it, it’s actually normal. The reason is not that complicated. There’s just one reason: the number of players has decreased.
Therefore, before choosing to be promoted, some players who lacked strength or were more cautious began to "form alliances". They agreed with each other and chose similar promotion areas.
Another impact of the small number of people is that there is less contact between players.
Since ancient times, powerful empires have rarely been destroyed by external wars. Most of them were destroyed internally.
?However, the players were quite smart. They really didn’t know what changes would happen to the system after promotion, but they understood a very simple truth.
According to the time in the main plane, less than two months have actually passed. The players in the medium realm are still the same batch as before, and there are no new players.
?Taking the members of Bloody Dawn as an example, although they have not gathered together since they were promoted, Su Xingyu still knows their current basic information through communication in the group.
Top players such as Yongye, Glory, and Blood God are very confident in their own strength. They each occupy a void area and do not form alliances with others.
Hence, before taking action against the Hundred Nations Alliance, the Evernight Empire must make full preparations for war, formulate a good plan, and finally take action with the mentality of fighting a hundred-year war.
This is because he has always been the boss of the Yongye Empire, and the consuls have been "wise kings" for generations.
When fighting against such a behemoth, it would be impossible to determine the outcome in a short period of time. The duration of the war is often measured in ten years. Su Xingyu would not be surprised if the battle lasted for hundreds of years.
There is no conflict, so naturally there will be no scolding wars on the World Channel for no reason.
The richer the aura, the more powerful the creature.
After all, they are all shrinking in the plane development, expanding their territory while resisting the void disaster. These two things alone are enough for them to keep busy. How can they have other energy to invade players.
It is normal to have less information.
For example, players such as martial arts masters and elephant masters who are slightly weaker but can still be considered strong join forces in pairs to occupy an area.
??Eternal Night Empire is mobilizing for war, so as the mastermind behind provoking the war, what is Su Xingyu doing?
…
The selection of promotion positions was based on ranking order, so the players in the front undoubtedly chose good positions, that is, those void areas with rich spiritual energy.
Overall, the medium realm is peaceful.
The aura of the intermediate realm is several times that of the elementary realm, which means that the creatures in the intermediate realm are much stronger than those in the elementary realm.
They know that there is no free lunch in this world.
But that has a population of hundreds of millions and a vast territory of tens of millions of square kilometers.
?In addition, those who have been promoted are all "big bosses", at least in the eyes of normal players, they are absolute bosses. These players are already familiar with the rules of the system and the rules of survival.
In the medium realm, the number of players in the four major regions combined is only just over 100,000, which is less than one thousandth of that in the elementary realm.
Since being promoted to the medium realm, the frequency of players sending messages has decreased a lot, and it may even happen that there is no message on the world channel for several days.
…
?For example, the pharmacist and the black merchant, one went to follow the teacher and the elephant master, and the other went to follow the glory.
As for why they don’t get together as they are both members of the same organization?
It’s very simple, the resources are not enough for them.
Any player with some foresight can vaguely see some future development trends after the qualifying matches.
This plane is too small.
To be honest, the large plane is actually very large.
But everything depends on comparison. For ordinary beings, even high-level experts, large planes are enough for them to deal with.
But it’s not very good for players. Maybe this plane can still withstand the players’ efforts now, but when they advance to the realm of demigods or even true gods, this plane will be too small.
So expanding into the void is almost an inevitable choice.
??They all live together, safety is safety, and how to allocate resources is a big problem.
Most importantly, it will be very troublesome to expand territory and colonize the void plane in the future.
?Hence, in order to avoid conflict, they spread out sensibly.
??The members of the Bloody Dawn who have done the best are undoubtedly Yong Ye, Guanghui, and Blood God. Although they need to fight against the Void Disaster alone, they are strong enough that the Void Disaster does not cause them much trouble.
As for the situation of other people, they are all pretty much the same, and they are doing pretty much the same. When they first encountered the void disaster, they did encounter some troubles, but after they got used to it, there were no problems, and they are now moving forward steadily. "Speaking of the void plane, it''s time for me to prepare. This plane must be unified, and the void plane cannot fall behind." After understanding the general situation of the players and the situation in the middle realm, Su Xingyu also Start planning for your future.
To unify the plane, he is not in a hurry to end. If possible, he is not even prepared to end, leaving it entirely to the Eternal Night Empire to solve the problem.
As for what He is going to do?
Explore the void and wander around.
? Fifty years of development results have already proven everything. Now the Evernight Empire is on the right track and does not need his constant attention.
So, he can also explore the surrounding void plane.
By the way, clean up the void beasts to prevent them from invading and interfering with the development of the empire.
There are many powerful people in the empire, so the Void Beast Herd will naturally not cause much trouble, but it is not an option to always concentrate people in Yongye City, not to mention that they will have to use external troops in the future.
?After sending people out by then, Eternal Night City''s defensive capabilities will be somewhat empty. Although it still has the strength to suppress the void beast herds, the losses must be carefully considered.
??Anyway, if you want to get through it without any damage, the only way is like this time, if Su Xingyu ends up personally.
?However, Su Xingyu had no intention of ending.
He is not a tool man. He has no time to do anything else every day, just waiting for the beasts of the void to invade.
Besides, sitting back and waiting for death is not His way of doing things.
It is His way of doing things to completely nip troubles in their bud and prevent them from appearing.
Where do the Void Herds come from?
The answer is naturally the surrounding void.
?It is also very simple to solve the problem of the invasion of void beasts. Just clean up the surrounding area.
Solving the problem from the source is undoubtedly a good way.
Fifty years ago, His strength was still slightly insufficient, so he allowed the void disaster to come.
Now, hum -
…
In the endless void, it was pitch black and silent, like a dead land with no life to speak of. Occasionally, faint starlight came from the distance, like the twinkling of distant stars.
?There is no clear concept of time here, and there are no boundaries of space. Everything seems very mysterious.
?In this darkness, there are countless secrets hidden, which may be treasures or hunters. Danger and opportunity coexist.
Theoretically speaking, the strong men of the ninth-level holy realm have the qualifications to leave the plane, step into the void, and explore this mysterious land.
?But few strong people would do this.
The void is dangerous, this is not an empty statement.
Herds of void beasts, space storms, meteor strikes, void pirates...there are too many disasters in the endless void.
Even a ninth-level Saint Realm expert who is strong enough to dominate the plane may die in the void if he is not careful, and hundreds of years of practice will be wiped out.
So unless they are forced to do so, such as when the deadline is approaching and there is no hope of breakthrough, or when a powerful enemy is chasing them and there is no way to retreat, a ninth-level expert will not enter the void to die.
The demigod realm is the mainstream for stepping into the void.
??Tenth-level demigods, although they are "demigods", no matter what, they still have the word "god" in their realm. Their power is beyond imagination.
Approximately ten length units away from the plane of eternal night, there is a tiny meteorite here. Of course, it is said to be tiny, but that is in comparison with similar meteorites. In fact, its size is still very large, with a radius of hundreds of miles. (One unit of length = the distance a demigod can fly in one day with all his strength)
??The surface of the meteorite is full of pits and dirt, and there are many small peaks standing and mountains lying down, giving people an extremely desolate feeling.
But if someone takes a closer look, they will find that there are no mounds of earth or small peaks here, but they are clearly huge void beasts.
??Void beasts are resting. Their bodies are as huge as hills, and their skins are bottomless black, as if they have absorbed all the surrounding light.
?? Their eyes are closed, their breathing is slow and long, and they are sleeping.
At this moment, a thousand meters above the meteorite, a small dark crack appeared, and a pair of hands as white as jade reached out, and then directly grabbed the empty crack.
? Gently pulling to the side with both hands, it was like opening a door. The crack in the space grew in vain, and a figure slowly walked out of it.
??He is tall and tall, up to ten feet tall, like a Titan. His eyes are like two bright stars, and his eyes are as indifferent as water, without any emotion.
?Wearing a black battle armor, he held a long black sword in his hand, flashing with a sharp cold light.
?The whole body was covered by dark light, and his face could not be seen clearly, as if he was covered by the night.
"Finally found it, it''s really far enough away." Looking at the group of void beasts below, Su Xingyu felt a little emotional. He had to admit that he had underestimated the void.
Too broad.
?It''s obviously not that far away perceptually, but it took a lot of time to fly over.
With his undisguised appearance, the Void beasts below sensed the danger and woke up from their slumber. They looked at the Void figure above and roared, as if to warn and to embolden themselves.
It showed its fangs and claws, but not a single void beast rushed forward.
Even the irascible and almost unintelligent Void Beast also knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
"Almost three thousand, which is quite a lot. Although not all of them are high-level, it is enough to last for a while." With a sweep of his spiritual mind, Su Xingyu cleared the general situation of the void beasts on the meteorite. A demigod , more than 400 high-level ones, and more than 2,000 mid-level ones.
Putting it on any plane, this would belong to the overlord level of one party.
However, this configuration is in the void, but it belongs to a relatively weak force.
The competition in the void is so fierce.
"Roar-"
Su Xingyu''s unscrupulous behavior finally angered the group of void beasts below. The demigod beast king roared and led the high-level void beasts to charge forward.
"You don''t overestimate your capabilities." Seeing the Void Beast attacking, Su Xingyu sneered, not taking it to heart at all, and waved his right hand, swinging his long sword.
The sword energy bloomed with extreme black brilliance, making the already dark void become even darker at this moment.
??The Void Beast King opened his mouth and spit out an energy cannon, and moved his body to the side, preparing to avoid this sword energy.
However…
?The dark sword energy cut through the energy cannon, and then swallowed the energy cannon directly like a whirlpool in the sea. The dark sword energy suddenly expanded, and when the demigod beast king was avoiding it, it came in front of it.
唰—
The body of a hundred meters is divided into two parts.
The spiritual consciousness is dead.
