Chapter 377 - 79: The Eight Realms Alliance Army? Fight! We’ll Fight the Eight Realms Alliance Army
This turbulence would tear open spatial rifts, accidentally pulling Native Powers that did not originally belong to this world into the Lord World’s domain.
This change gave Qin Feng the perfect opening.
He could use this opportunity to disguise the Wood Elves and Skaven Ratmen as "Otherworld Natives brought by the Space-Time Turbulence," no longer needing to hide these two forces.
Later, he could legitimately reveal them to the public, guiding other Lord Players to pledge their allegiance to these two factions. This would allow everyone to unlock the corresponding Divine Chosen Soldiers and exclusive Extraordinary Camps.
"This is manageable."
Qin Feng’s tone was even as he summarized his judgment of the current situation in a single sentence, then added,
"The scramble for the Stone of the Gods might be a little troublesome."
"As for any Plane War, Sky City, or the battle for the Alliance Headquarters—none of those are a big deal."
"We just have to fight. It’s that simple."
However, as these thoughts ran through his mind, a new system notification suddenly popped up before him. Its border was a conspicuous, startling red, completely different from the usual alerts.
[Warning!]
[The Lord Plane you inhabit has been locked on by an unknown Plane. An invasion is imminent!]
[A Plane War has been officially triggered!]
[Key Rule: The battle will commence in one week. The Professional Levels of all participants on both sides will be synchronized to the average level of their respective factions!]
[Urgent Intel! The enemy has formed an inter-planar coalition, a union of eight Lord Planes! Your Plane will face a coordinated attack from the "Eight Realms Alliance Army!"]
[Recommended Action: You may initiate "cooperation" with other non-hostile Lord Planes to form a defensive alliance and jointly resist the invasion!]
Huh?
’What’s this?’
’The Eight Realms Alliance Army?’
’Are they coming for the Divine Stone Fragment?’
At almost the exact moment Qin Feng received the alert, every other Lord Player on the Plane received the same red warning.
The regional channel, which had previously been a quiet place with only a few dozen people occasionally making small talk, instantly erupted.
Messages scrolled past at a blinding speed. The once-silent channel was now Boiling, the entire screen filled with shocked discussion about the "Eight Realms Alliance Army."
A Lord Player named "I am Dao and I want to cut Dao" was the first to cut through the Chaos, his message clearly filled with shock:
"No way! Guys! What’s going on? We just got to the third stage! How is an alliance army made of eight Lord Planes already attacking us?"
Soon, a Lord Player named "Ya Chongtian" offered his assessment in a relatively calm tone:
"This is to be expected."
"Such is the allure of the Divine Stone Fragment."
"Lord Tingfeng’s accomplishments are too incredible to be kept secret. Many large Player Alliances wanting to contend for the Divine Stone Fragment have long been preparing for an invasion."
"However, considering Lord Tingfeng’s growth potential, those large Player Alliances probably won’t actually fight us. They’re most likely coming to negotiate with Lord Tingfeng, hoping to persuade him to hand over the Divine Stone Fragment."
The moment he finished speaking, a Lord Player named "Moonlit Observation" raised an objection, their logic exceptionally clear:
"Not necessarily."
"If they really wanted to negotiate, they would just send one Plane to declare war. Why send eight all at once?"
"Isn’t it obvious they’re here to completely crush us?"
A Lord Player named "Xiaocao" spoke up next, adding to the concerns:
"True."
"I also think they’re here to plunder the Divine Stone Fragment."
Xiaocao paused, then mentioned an even more realistic possibility:
"Or maybe they just want to target Lord Tingfeng. After all, some people can’t stand to see others doing better than them, let alone when Lord Tingfeng is holding a super-resource like the Divine Stone Fragment."
"Who knows what kind of stupid shit those brainless idiots will pull."
Hearing this, a Lord Player named "Oreo" broke the speculative deadlock by offering a direct solution:
"Look."
"Guys."
"Instead of talking about it here, why don’t you just ask mad madam?"
He then added his reasoning:
"She’s a recruiter for the Delta Alliance. She can use their vast intelligence network to find out the specifics of the planar forces that declared war on us."
"Even if she can’t find the specifics, she can at least rule out whether this is a planar invasion by a major Player Alliance targeting Lord Tingfeng."
Seeing the suggestion, Xiaocao immediately chimed in, their voice filled with urgent realization:
"Holy shit!"
"You’re right!"
They then immediately pinged her in the channel, their message full of urgency:
"Ma’am! @mad madam! We need you, ASAP! This is a code red!"
The other Lord Players also started pinging her.
"@mad madam! Urgent! Do you have any news?"
"@mad madam! Do you think we can win against the Eight Realms Alliance Army?"
"@mad madam! If we really have to fight, Ma’am, do you know what we should be doing right now to increase our chances of winning?"
"@mad madam! What do we do if we lose...?"
Seeing this, a Lord Player named "Hafke Sniper Soldier" immediately spoke up to calm the frantic mood in the channel:
"Don’t panic!"
"Don’t rush her!"
"Our boss is already on it!"
"Have faith in the boss’s efficiency!"
Immediately after, a Lord Player named "Hafke Fireman" added his own assessment with a confident tone:
"I don’t think we even need to ask."
"Lord Tingfeng is being watched by a ton of top-tier Player Alliances right now. Nobody would risk angering him and those other top alliances just to declare war on our Plane World."
"It’s probably just a Plane Alliance Army made up of some clueless newbies."
"They’ll be an easy fight."
He had barely finished speaking when a Lord Player named "Hafke Gunman" cut him off, offering a different, warier perspective:
"Hard to say."
"It’s true that the top Player Alliances from our Hua Country wouldn’t be so reckless as to anger Lord Tingfeng."
"But who knows about those foreign idiots who have nothing better to do all day."
"Ganging up to bully us is what they do best."
"Especially now that they know our Hua Country has produced the first Lord Player with the ’Heaven’s Chosen Ruler’ title. Who knows what crazy shit that bunch of fucking idiots will pull!"
"You have to understand, they’ve always seen themselves as superior and look down on us Hua Country people as if we’re second-class citizens... Now that we have a powerhouse like Lord Tingfeng, how could they possibly take that lying down?"
Hearing this, the Lord Player named "Hafke Fireman" paused, clearly mulling it over. A moment later, he spoke in agreement:
"True, if it’s that bunch of foreign morons, they might actually pull something like this. They do this kind of thing all the time."
A Lord Player named "I’m a Security Guard and I Want to Go Home" suddenly appeared, his message filled with disbelief:
"Holy shit!"
"Foreign Lord Players are attacking us?"
"Is that for real?"
His next message expressed even greater surprise, carrying the shocked tone of someone who thought they’d seen it all:
"I’ve gone through Rebirth several times, and I’ve never heard of a foreign Lord Plane coming to attack a Hua Country Plane. This is a first for me!"
The Lord Player "Hafke Fireman" took the initiative to explain, clarifying the key points for everyone:
"Actually, these cross-country invasions are pretty common, but they mainly happen in Tier Four Lord Planes, and usually not until the later, level-90 phase."
His tone shifted as he pointed out what made the third stage different:
"Because in a third-stage Lord Plane, foreign players are at a huge disadvantage if they try to attack Hua Country players."
"After all, the distance between our Planes is immense, which means they need an extremely long time to prepare for war. That gives us more than enough time to set up all kinds of defensive fortifications and just wait for their invasion."
"So, normally speaking, foreign Lord Players wouldn’t come and pick a fight with us at this stage."
