NOVEL WEB Chapter 292: The War Begins (Part 2)
"The operation rules of Void Sea are just a small part of the universe's operation." The Star Abyss Monarch's gentle expression smiled and said, "Although I cannot interfere with the universe's operation, it's quite easy to affect the rule operation of the Void Sea."
The Star Abyss Monarch's face, filled with endless hostility, sneered, "This Void Sea is merely my food. How I cook and prepare it is entirely up to me!"
The Master of Canggui showed even more respect, "I am willing to follow the orders of the great Monarch."
"Let's deal with Lin Qing first." The Star Abyss Monarch's gentle face smiled and said, "A Child of Chaos with a two or three chance of becoming a Chaos God. To be able to resolve him is worth my effort."
The Star Abyss Monarch's fierce expression was cold as ever and said, "Remember, no matter what, you must prevail over the Mountain and Sea Realm and make him agree to accompany you to those ruins."
"Please rest assured, great Monarch."
The Master of Canggui respectfully said, "A mere newly advanced Void Dominator, barely reaching the Star Abyss nineteenth level strength, is impossible to be my opponent. The Mountain and Sea Realm has only been born for less than forty thousand years, and is even less capable of being a match for my Canggui Civilization. In this battle I am bound to win."
"I'll be waiting." The Star Abyss Monarch chuckled softly before disappearing from this space.
Only then did the Master of Canggui rise, the terrifying dark flame covering his whole body retracting, vanishing completely.
"Lin Qing? Mountain and Sea Realm?"
The Master of Canggui's gaze was very calm, "Since I need to gain Lin Qing's trust, let's be a little friendly."
He didn't take this civilization war seriously at all. With Canggui Civilization's thirty billion years of foundation, coupled with the benefits he gained after becoming a Star Abyss Apostle, it further deepened Canggui Civilization's foundation and increased the odds of winning the civilization war.
In the Void Level battlefield, he possessed absolute confidence.
Dominator Level battlefield?
Mountain and Sea Realm doesn't even have a second Void Dominator. Canggui Civilization was also certain to win.
As for Lin Qing?
A newly advanced Void Dominator, capable of holding Star Abyss nineteenth level strength due to the innate divine artifact, already impressive.
But still far from being his opponent.
"Forget it. In the Void Level battlefield, let the Cangyu Guard fight more gently."
The Master of Canggui pondered to himself, "When Lin Qing finds out that the Mountain and Sea Realm suffered very little loss, he will likely trust me more. The plan can proceed more smoothly, and he might directly agree to my request then."
The Star Abyss Monarch's plan was straightforward.
After Canggui Civilization's victory, they would give up the division of Mountain and Sea Realm's space, and instead change the conditions, asking Lin Qing to assist in visiting a ruin of a 2.9-level civilization.
That ruin had long been transformed by the Star Abyss Monarch. Even the Three Ancestors couldn't penetrate with space-time methods to rescue people. By then, as long as the Primordial Emperor and Star God lurking in that ruin take action, Lin Qing's path to becoming a Chaos God could be completely cut off!
The plan connected in sequence, and the first step was for him, the Master of Canggui Civilization, to secure victory in the civilization war!
Of course, the Master of Canggui also had absolute confidence.
...
Mountain and Sea Realm, in the highest council space.
"This... how is this possible? The first civilization war matched with Canggui Civilization?"
"What is going on here? Is this a joke..."
"Is the first civilization war going to be lost?"
"Losing 10% of the homeland space right off the bat, the impact isn't small."
"Alas... we can only admit defeat..."
In the council space, the atmosphere was quite silent, with all the regional representatives and lawmakers remaining silent. They only communicated privately, but their mood was visibly low and helpless.
Other civilizations are matched with ones having similar win rates and battle records, so how did Mountain and Sea Realm, on its first encounter, face such an anomaly?
It's outright ridiculous like encountering the final boss in a beginner village.
"No need to panic."
Lin Qing's gaze calmly swept over everyone, speaking in a bland tone, "I've already studied Canggui Civilization beforehand. Don't worry, Mountain and Sea Realm will never fall to the point of having our homeland divided. Just wait and see."
The lawmakers and representatives, hearing this, though puzzled, still felt significantly reassured.
After all, under this legendary Councilman's leadership, Mountain and Sea Realm had come far. The citizens naturally placed great trust in him.
Perhaps... the Councilman had already discussed with Canggui Civilization and agreed not to lose space but pay other prices?
Lin Qing understood the thoughts of Mountain and Sea Realm's leaders. Mountain and Sea Realm, being so young, hasn't fully developed, lacking confidence is quite normal.
He didn't explain further. Instead, he swept his gaze and instructed, "Take the Civilization Master battlefield for me, while we avoid the Dominator Level battlefield, for the Void Level battlefield, only dispatching 303 individuals."
"Three hundred and three?"
"What?"
The representatives were dumbfounded hearing this, now truly confirmed. It seemed the Councilman did negotiate with Canggui Civilization, with the civilization war estimatingly only sending a few people as a formality.
It's crucial to know, when any civilization evolves to the Great World level and reaches its peak, the population reaches the trillions, and Void Creatures numbering in billions!
The Void Level battlefield entry, having invisible rules limit, permits a certain number of Void Creatures into the battlefield with the limit measured in tens of thousands.
Specifically, how many Void Creatures can enter depends on the size of the civilization's world. A standard Great World with a diameter of five billion can typically dispatch 100,000 Void Creatures into the Void Level battlefield.
These 100,000 individuals are, without a doubt, elites among various Void Creatures.
For the Dominator Level battlefield, a standard Great World can dispatch ten Void Dominators into it.
In the Civilization Master battlefield, naturally, only the Master of Civilization can enter.
Currently, Mountain and Sea Realm amasses tens of thousands of Void Creatures, yet the Councilman only sends slightly over 300 into the Void Level battlefield?
Clearly, it's just a formality.
"Three hundred and three are enough."
Lin Qing squinted, simultaneously transmitting one message after another.
"Shanhai Guard, get ready for action."
"Yuanxue Qiuyue, Moro, you embark as well."
"Master Qi, the Void Level battlefield is entrusted to you."
"Leave the Civilization Master battlefield to me."
"In this first civilization war, Mountain and Sea Realm must achieve victory."
...
Three months passed by rapidly.
These three months, the civilization battlefield, larger than countless Great World civilizations, now fully formed, comprehensively comprise the Void Level, Dominator Level, and Civilization Master three battlefields, each spanning billions of kilometers.
Including mountains, lakes, oceans, etc., all geography split and consolidated from the worlds of five civilizations, looking like naturally formed worlds.
But...
Everyone understood that these were actually three battlefields.
According to civilization war rules——
Three battlefield spaces, in each space exists a crystal pillar formed by world origin, which must be completely filled with our energy to truly occupy that battlefield space.
And the energy infusion process can be easily interrupted.
This means——
Either the power is sufficiently strong enough to kill all enemies and then infuse energy into the world origin crystal pillar.
Or have many means to protect the region of the world origin crystal pillar, preventing enemy interruption.
The civilization war persists the longest for 380 years; once 380 years have passed, if no world origin crystal pillar in any battlefield space has been occupied, it means the war yields no result.
This complete battlefield space will shatter and vanish, each civilization will flatly lose a tenth of its territory.
The civilization war operating on invisible rules within the Void Sea evidently indicates...
Civilization war must deliver a decisive outcome!
"Set out."
Lin Qing's gaze moved as he glanced at those three hundred-odd figures entering the Void Level battlefield in succession, a subtle smile appearing on his lips.
Immediately, he also transformed into a stream of light, flying directly into the uppermost Civilization Master battlefield.
