Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

Chapter 1021 278: The Crusaders' Expedition and the System Prompt Ringing in Players' Ears (10K)

"Not a trace of our existence left behind, Lord Mei Luo, we've been exposed."

Mei Luo instinctively raised his head, looking at the sky with fear in his eyes at the snow that had somehow increased in intensity.

"When did this happen?"

...

[Location: Lancaster County · Titan City · Twin Mage Tower]

Kael stood in front of his Twin Mage Tower, which wasn't fully established yet, including the Mage Tower he was currently in, all still awaiting completion.

But it didn't matter; for mages, many things didn't necessarily require complete readiness to harness the power of the Mage Tower.

If Knight Mei Luo were standing here now, he might be shocked to find out that Kael's established Twin Mage Tower was already surrounded by a large circle of neatly organized Shivas.

Kael stood at the central position of the magic array carved on the Mage Tower floor, acting as the array's focal point.

Continuous blue airflow gathered from the surrounding Shivas into his body, collected by Kael, and then directly launched into the sky.

This group of Shivas had a relatively pleasant racial name—

Shiva.

Earlier, when the Bartlet Monarch arrived in Lancaster, Old White led a group to the Shiva Village, where he hadn't dared to go directly for many years.

The purpose was to bring back his wife and daughter from Shiva Village.

Hmm... Whether they were actually his wife and daughter was still up for debate.

Strictly speaking, they hadn't married.

Kael didn't inquire further with Grandpa White about what happened eventually.

After all, Old White returned to the territory with bruises, looking like a national treasure panda, under such circumstances, no one would bother asking how he got beaten up.

In short, after some minor chaos, Shiva Village moved to a corner of Lancaster, just as Kael had anticipated.

Unsurprisingly, that place has now become a popular tourist spot for many players.

Who could resist the charming and alluring Shivas with a hint of domesticity?

In short, after gaining another tourist attraction in Lancaster, the matter seemed to have temporarily calmed down.

After a light snowfall, Kael sensed something amiss, so he immediately sought out the village chief of Shiva Village, requesting 49 of the strongest Shivas to be ready at any moment to assist him at the Mage Tower in completing his plan.

Then, one night, Kael received related news from Aister:

"Master, someone in the Player Forum said the omen task has been activated, and now the entire forum is buzzing with discussions about the activation of the omen task and the unlocking of the vast experience pool and reward pool of Lancaster."

Upon hearing the news, Kael couldn't contain his excitement and burst into laughter.

What does this imply?

It means, according to the system's determination, Lancaster and the surrounding eastern border lord territories have been silently invaded by enemies.

First, let's clarify the mechanism behind system task operations.

The task system operates under the premise that the person issuing the task must have the authority and capacity to do so.

Simply put, for Kael to successfully issue this task, he must secure recognition from both the Lancaster Duchy and the eastern border lord alliance.

Gaining the border lord alliance's approval is fairly simple; if he possesses greater strength himself and the future status of the Lancaster Duchy's leader, there's a significant chance he would directly represent the eastern lord alliance in a truly meaningful way.

This is why he instructed the Great Tree to speak to various Lords.

To obtain the authority to represent.

As the second-generation Duke already entrusted by Lion Heart and beginning to undertake Lancaster Duchy related affairs, Kael possesses the authority in critical times to forcibly rally support from Lancaster Duchy for auxiliary forces.

But! Here's a crucial point: how do we define this critical moment?

From Kael's perspective, he could consider any moment a critical time and unilaterally rally large numbers of players as auxiliary forces.

However, it's evident that system tasks aren't issued based on his "thought process."

Therefore, the judgment standard is straightforward; when Lancaster and other eastern territories are invaded, particularly when Lancaster is invaded, it's undeniably determined as a critical survival moment.

This thus signifies a complete opening of the "Lancaster Duchy's Experience Pool" task pool, granting Kael the authority to directly issue tasks.

Simply put, three elements must be gathered.

The first element - Kael must possess the status of issuing duchy tasks.

The second element - the precondition for issuing duchy tasks is the occurrence of a specific event.

The third element - must align with the task issuer's predetermined eligible candidates.

In short, Kael has set up a summon task, transforming tasks usually requiring an event's occurrence before issuing the authority, into tasks issued in advance, awaiting the fulfillment of issuance conditions.

Thus...

He instructed Lion Heart not to instantly dismiss his omen order.

Only with Lion Heart not nullifying this order does Kael get regarded as having already issued the task.

This explains why he must issue under Lancaster Duchy and eastern border noble alliance's name.

It's his artificially set precaution.

Once the system confirms a massive enemy invasion, it means all conditions get fulfilled the moment of penetration.

Hence, with a snap, tasks players have already accepted will be fully activated instantly.

And all he needs is for Aister to monitor the forum via the game panel.

As long as someone mentions this topic, he can definitively ascertain, that war...

Has arrived!
