The Peerless Emperor-Chapter 494 - 495: Father’s Crisis (8th Update)
Chapter 494 -495: Father’s Crisis (8th Update)
Five cities hadn’t even broken through the Array before the entire Black Corner Army was annihilated; only a few of the Black Corner Clan, who lacked the blood-colored aura, were fortunate to survive.
In fact, as Lin Qian continued to advance, the effects of the Enlistment Wine became increasingly terrifying.
The Enlistment Wine, mixed with black blood, thoroughly influenced the Soul Martial Artists who controlled power within the Black Corner Country, making them ferociously violent.
It was as if the Black Corner Country had contracted a serious illness, and it was deep-seated.
If this rotten flesh wasn’t cut away soon, the entire Black Corner Clan would be finished.
The Ancient Forest World would become the Ancient Forest State of the Huaxia Empire, and this fact would remain unaltered.
Before turning this land into a Territory of his Empire, Lin Qian didn’t mind excising this rotten flesh.
The battle line continued to advance, and three months had passed since the war began; much of the Black Corner Country had been nearly conquered.
What was originally a horizontal battle line had now turned into a circular shape, tightly enclosing the Capital of Black Corner Country in the center and steadily contracting.
Inside a temporary Tactics Hall, Lin Qian held a large cup in his hand, into which a crystal tube filled with bubbling black liquid was inserted, from which he sipped.
One hundred and fifty battleships had now lost thirty-two, but the enemy had paid the price of ten Master Level Black Corner Clan fighters, along with four hundred high-level Awakening Realm Black Corner Clan Soul Martial Artists.
The design of the assault-type battleship was inherently extremely heavy and unusual, creating destruction upon each impact, while Soul Power canons finished the job.
As such, Shen Zhixing had absolutely no way to deal with an assault-type battleship that was accelerating with full force.
Even a lower C-Class assault-type battleship was beyond reach and could only be admired from afar.
But Sky Soaring Battleships were different; both in weight and defensive strength, they were far inferior to assault-type battleships, and lower C-Class Sky Soaring Battleships were unable to withstand attacks from a Master Level Awakening Realm power.
At the same time, the losses of the Imperial Army, though not overwhelming, ultimately resulted in over twenty million deaths.
The Black Corner Country was, after all, much stronger than the Qin Dynasty, especially as the battle line moved deeper and situations grew increasingly troublesome.
If the Black Corner Clan near the Four Clan Regions had blood aura, despite becoming more violent, they still retained their senses.
But as they got closer to the Royal City, these Black Corner Clan members turned even more deranged, fighting with a style that was purely for victory and heedless of their own lives.
If they couldn’t overwhelm you, they exploded; if they were about to die, they exploded; there were even Black Corner Clan members who would rush in to hug an Imperial Army Soldier and explode on the spot.
If the Imperial Army Soldiers didn’t also lack emotions and understand fear, their fighting ability would likely suffer greatly under such insane onslaughts.
Fortunately, apart from the Imperial Army, there was also the War Beast Army attacking on the ground.
After all, as the battleship’s front moved forward, small villages and towns couldn’t all be covered, and it fell to the War Beast Army to take charge.
In addition, some Black Corner Army camps were not within Mountain Cities but in forests or other hidden spots, which was when the War Beast Army would take the stage.
The existence of the War Beast Army surprised the seven clan elders, for they had never seen Soul Beasts who could speak, use Soul Devices, and wear full suits of armor.
The most interested in the War Beast Army was Lu Shengshou; he was truly curious as to what kind of Soul Devices could be used by Soul Beasts.
After emptying the cup in his hand, Lin Qian sent the large vessel back to the Huaxia Empire, let out a belch, and his hands were still frequently fidgeting with the system framework.
There was a battle of nations going on incessantly, and to Lin Qian, it almost felt like playing a game for three months straight without any rest.
In the past life’s national warfare games, battles had time acceleration: once the troops were deployed and the formation set, the fighting process unfolded at several times the normal speed. Otherwise, how long would players have to play in real life?
But now Lin Qian was in a different world, no longer inside a game, devoid of the game’s time acceleration feature.
Fortunately, Lin Qian was at the Awakening Realm, which could be considered godlike if it were in his past life, coupled with a strong soul and without showing any abnormalities, he could endure it completely.
With the battle lines gradually contracting and the number of casualties increasing, Lin Qian found himself becoming more and more relaxed.
On the following Sky Soaring Battleship, scribes were consistently receiving the cities that had been conquered, and people from the Four Clans in the Four Clan Regions were gradually relocating.
For them, the Four Clan Regions were simply too cramped.
While the frontlines were ablaze with war, the rear was extremely busy. The Heavenly Art Department’s scribes had to issue certificates to the Human Clan, Black Corner Clan, Red Horn Clan, Dwarf Clan, and the Spirit Hoof Clan, to become the subjects of the Huaxia Empire.
With their own elders giving orders, the people of the Four Clans were naturally willing to comply. Some members of the Black Corner Clan were still hesitant and uneasy, unable to trust the Huaxia Empire.
However, when they saw the good life they could have after joining the Huaxia Empire, they couldn’t hold back and joined the Empire one after another.
In the world above, Ye Xin and others would probably never have imagined that the Huaxia Empire had acquired a large new Territory and begun integrating different clans into the Empire’s citizenry.
“No, Prime Minister, this cola flavor is still a bit off, too sweet, and too fizzy. We need to adjust it further,” said Lin Qian as he operated the system framework in front of him to check on the status of the warships and Soldiers and make adjustments.
During the adjustment process, Lin Qian also said to Zhuge Ming, “This thing is going to be crucial for the Huaxia Empire to make money in the future. If the cola isn’t successfully developed, the Empire’s branded chicken won’t be established, like losing its soul.”
“I understand, Your Majesty. Rest assured, I will improve it immediately,” assured Zhuge Ming, and Lin Qian nodded to himself.
After having fought alongside for a full three months, the seven clan elders had also come to understand the Huaxia Empire’s combat methods.
He Baili, Xu Wuwei, and Fu Deqing had broken through to the Seventh Level of the Awakening Realm after being tempered by the flames of war, achieving Master Level combat prowess.
In fact, they were the ones who had gained the most.
From initial amazement and discomfort to being able to fully integrate and coordinate with the Imperial Army, they exhibited potent combat power and achieved remarkable results.
The reason Lin Qian allowed these seven clan elders to participate in the war was not only to utilize their strength but also to see if the Huaxia Empire and the Soul Martial Artists of this world could coordinate well.
The proof was clear: they absolutely could!
Moreover, having different clans become subjects of the Huaxia Empire not only allowed for a diverse development of the Empire but also made the combat methods of the Huaxia Empire complex and changeable. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
“Buzz!” Just then, a crimson glow suddenly surged again from Lin Qian’s body, intensifying before ultimately bursting forth.
Lin Qian sat stunned atop the Nine Dragons Throne, unable to understand what was happening to his own body.
“Your Majesty, I’m afraid something has happened to the Supreme Emperor,” suddenly spoke Zhuge Ming’s voice.
Lin Qian’s expression changed dramatically: “Father?”
