Chapter 1227 - 1194: Reactions from All Sides
In a hidden leveling spot, after dealing with a group of hideously ugly zombies, Satan J immediately retreated to the side.
At this moment, King Arthur suddenly stepped forward and said to Satan J:
"Satan, I received news that Feng Hua plans to launch a city-seizing war against the He Clan tonight."
Satan J looked coldly at King Arthur and said nonchalantly:
"A battle zone destined to become Demon Race territory, let him have it if he wants."
However, King Arthur couldn’t hide the shock in his heart and said:
"But he wants three!"
"What? Feng Hua wants to seize three cities from the He Clan!!!"
Satan J suddenly reacted, looking at King Arthur in disbelief.
But soon Satan J realized his loss of composure, wiped the shocked expression off his face, and replaced it with cold indifference once again:
"Where did you hear this news from?"
King Arthur hesitated for a moment, then said:
"Hojo Takeshi from the He Clan approached me, wanting us to intervene."
Only then did Satan J notice the constantly flashing avatar on his friend list, which was Hojo Takeshi from the He Clan war zone.
However, Satan J had no intention of clicking on it; instead, he deleted it directly, then said:
"In another half month, the Demon King Li You will descend upon this world."
"The He Clan will serve as the Demon Race’s first territory on the Rafam Continent."
"Even if we help him hold back that lunatic Feng Hua now, he’ll still be destroyed by the Demon Race in half a month."
While speaking, Satan J admired the blood-red glowing scythe in his hands, full of a murderous aura:
"Hua Country!"
"Let them cause their own chaos for now."
"We’ll settle our scores with them later."
Just then, a figure cloaked entirely in a black robe appeared, floating beside Satan J out of thin air.
This figure also held an exquisite Scythe of Death.
When King Arthur saw this figure, he subconsciously took a step back and swallowed hard in fear.
Yet Satan J looked at the silhouette beside him with satisfaction and said:
"We’ve prepared for so long; it’s time to give them a ’surprise.’
Finally, King Arthur had to brace himself and said:
"About tonight with the He Clan..."
Satan J nonchalantly waved his hand and said:
"We can’t let them have it too easy."
"Arrange something to give our friend Feng Hua a bit of trouble."
King Arthur nodded in understanding:
"I’m on it."
Then he turned and left immediately.
Satan J watched King Arthur depart and set his gaze again on the lifeless valley ahead.
Before long, the entire valley once again filled with rotting zombies.
Satan J and the shadow beside him almost simultaneously swung their scythes, then dashed into the valley in the blink of an eye.
In an instant.
The valley echoed once more with loud roars and sounds of tearing.

Meanwhile, in the He Clan war zone, when Hojo Takeshi announced online that Feng Hua was preparing to seize their border cities that very night, looking to take down three cities,
it immediately caused a huge uproar on the He Clan war zone’s gaming forums.
All players from the He Clan rushed to the forums to debate fiercely:
"Despicable Hua Country people, so shameless!"
"How dare they!"
"Do these Hua Country people really think us He Clan folk are easy targets?"
"Earlier, they helped us hold Sapporo City, and now that we’d just started liking them, why would this happen?"
"That’s your deceptive Hua Country people for you; never trust them."
"Three cities, do they even have the strength to take them? Laughable! Hahaha"
"The whole world is watching us He Clan like we’re a joke. Today we’ll let the world know we He Clan people are not to be trifled with!"
"Yes! Kill them."
He Clan players, upon hearing the news, were all roused with a fervent spirit.
Of course, some questioned the authenticity of the event.
But once they noticed that Hojo Takeshi was massively mobilizing the top guilds in the He Clan war zone, such doubts were instantly dispelled.
The result was a flood of angry denunciations aimed at the Hua Country players online by enraged He Clan folk.
Meanwhile, many Hua Country players were still bewildered.
When Lin Yi informed the major guilds, many thought it was just some joke from Lin Yi.
And back then, Lin Yi merely mentioned seizing four cities without detailing which border cities they were.
Now they heard that three of them were from the He Clan war zone, which contained all of He Clan’s border cities!
Were they not befuddled upon hearing such news?
Though several guilds had already executed Shengshi’s deployment and arrangements,
everyone still felt it was merely going through the motions, not believing Lin Yi could pull it off.
Yet with this news spreading, everyone finally realized the gravity of the situation.
Feng Hua was genuinely planning to go through with it!!!!
Furthermore, considering the overall strength of the Hua Country war zone,
seizing a single border city from the He Clan war zone was more than manageable.
However, Feng Hua was now planning to take all three cities from the He Clan war zone!!!
Upon hearing this, even Shengshi was incredulous:
"Has Feng Hua lost his mind? Is he intending to go all out against the He Clan?!"
Initially, they only prepared mentally for city capture.
They never anticipated being at odds with an entire battle zone!
There is a saying that a stab at the heart is the deadliest.
If the rumors were true, then Feng Hua’s current actions suggested an intent to massacre the He Clan war zone?
With all of their three border cities taken, what game would the He Clan players even have left to play?
Losing one city might mean a 20% loss in experience and drop rates; three would mean 60%...more than doubled.
How could anyone continue playing like this?
Nonetheless, shock aside, Shengshi contacted Lin Yi immediately to confirm the authenticity of the information.
But after getting a clear answer from Lin Yi, Shengshi suddenly felt a chill run down his spine:
"This is sheer madness!!"
Even though he couldn’t comprehend Lin Yi’s thoughts or actions,
as the number one ’spiritual leader’ of the Hua Country war zone, Shengshi ultimately chose to trust the Feng Hua he knew well, believing he’d never do something he wasn’t confident in.
Later on, Hua Country players also noticed that the personnel mobilization within their war zone’s top guilds became more intense and frequent.
In the He Clan war zone, all players sensed an ominous storm brewing.
The atmosphere throughout the He Clan war zone was stifling, leaving every player feeling suffocated.
...
...
Time: 17:50
Location: He Clan War Zone, Border City No.1
Hojo Takeshi stood on the city wall facing the sea breeze, his mind racing with the thoughts Lin Yi had previously shared, muttering to himself:
"Feng Hua!"
"The spirit of the Yamato Race will not allow us to become cowards."
"Come on then!"
"Let me see what strength you have to dare look down on us."
Behind him, the entire border city was filled with top players from the He Clan.
Everyone was primed and ready to counter the formidable assault from Hua Country.
