As he spoke, Li Mu tapped on the file sharing button in front of him. All the players who attended the meeting received a virtual combat book with the words "Battle Rules of the Great Holy War in the Elven Kingdom" written in gold.
The players curiously opened it and found that there were four chapters, namely "Attack", "Defense", "Behind the Enemy", and "General Attack".
Each chapter was divided into several sections. One could vaguely see the words "Mobile Warfare", "Battle of Statues", "Blitz Warfare", "Battle of Annihilation", "Battle of Public Opinion", "Propaganda Warfare", "Intelligence Warfare", "Air Warfare", and so on …
In each section, various battle plans were listed with pictures and text. It was very detailed.
The players curiously and excitedly browsed through the battle rules, while Li Mu continued to explain.
"The central idea of this battle is these specific battle rules. I will control the overall situation of the entire battle and will directly contact Big Sis, Alice, and a few army commanders. The commanders of the seven frontline armies will be free to act on the basis that the general direction is determined …
"In the overall battle, we will focus on offense, and defense will be secondary.
"Among them, we have to attack until all the attacking troops are annihilated. After reviving, we have to immediately throw ourselves into defense work or regroup …
"Offense is the best defense, but it doesn't mean that we completely give up on defense. So … in addition to the attack, the various frontline armies have to coordinate the specific arrangements of the attacking troops and the defending troops.
"All the NPC troops will be assigned to defense, including the elven troops, human troops, and reinforcements from other forces.
"In addition, all the players who participate in the attack will have to receive a poison from the seven major guilds …"
"Poison?"
Hearing this, the players below were slightly stunned and began to discuss.
Li Mu looked around and sighed softly.
"Everyone, up until now, do you really think that our enemies still don't know that we will revive?
"This poison … is used to prevent the enemy from killing us after we are captured and not killing us but sealing or imprisoning us instead."
Hearing Li Mu's words, the players suddenly understood.
"Can't we not kill ourselves? A gold player needs to spend a lot of resurrection coins to die once … "
A high-level player of a guild couldn't help but say.
Hearing his words, Li Mu chuckled and said, "
"Everyone, don't be reluctant to commit suicide just to save that little bit of resurrection coins. When it's time to commit suicide, do it decisively and return to the city. Our enemies are stronger than ever before, and the potential for EXP and Contribution Points are greater than ever before."
"Resurrection token? Heh, after I die, I'll just kill my way back! "
On the other side, Demacia also spoke with lofty aspirations.
"That's right, it's just a few resurrection coins. I promise here that as long as the front army members of the Mengmeng Committee have enough war contributions, all the resurrection coins will be reimbursed!"
Salty Meow also patted his chest and promised generously.
Li Mu was speechless.
Demacia: "…"
Stir-fried tomato: "…"
Shapeshifter Ji Gang: "…"
Salty Meow grinned when he saw the strange looks from the guild leaders.
"Hehehe, you can do whatever you want when you're rich!"
All the guild executives were speechless.
Is this the legendary Meng Meng Committee?
"Boss Meow, is it too late for me to join your guild now?"
Demacia asked with a cheeky smile.
"Forget about you. How many times have I said that our guild won't accept Demacia and dogs."
Salty Meow rolled his eyes.
"Discrimination! You're discriminating! "
Demacia protested.
…
The players' meeting lasted for the entire morning.
After that, the seven major guilds held another internal meeting with their own front army and issued the "Battle Rules for the Great Holy War in the Elf Kingdom".
After the meeting was completely over, all the players who participated in the war took action. The main force formed the offensive troops and rushed to the front line one after another. The defensive troops went to the various main cities and continued to build defensive fortifications in full swing.
It was worth mentioning that almost all the main forces went into battle lightly. They didn't bring any heavy siege equipment, nor did they bring airships. At most, they rode their own magical beasts.
The main forces of each front army were further dispersed. Some 10,000, some 20,000, formed independent legions. With the large and medium-sized guilds as the core, they advanced toward the human kingdoms.
On the other side, in Maplemoon Free Territory and Southern Territory, statues of goddesses who were building divine defensive barriers were erected on the city walls of the border cities.
As for the human world, the players who hadn't retreated in time stopped retreating. They covered their bodies and hid in the darkness.
In a war, information was also very important.
These players who hadn't returned would start another thrilling and exciting battle on another battlefield.
The atmosphere of war began to spread continuously …
…
Maplemoon Free Territory, Zeloran.
Ever since the news of the Eternal Church starting a holy war spread here, this rich and peaceful city was tainted with a layer of tension.
On the streets, fewer people came and went. In their place were guards who appeared more and more frequently.
The city's docks were also much quieter. The number of merchant ships that came and went decreased by more than half. However, the number of cargo ships sailing from the Elven Forest gradually increased.
Every day, ships flying the Elven flag could be seen docking at the docks. Boxes of war materials could be seen from the ships.
Outside the city, on the newly built city walls, "Elven-style" heavy crossbows and magic crystal cannons were set up.
From time to time, tall Elves could be seen commanding the city guards and volunteers. They were busy on and off the city walls.
In the new district of Zeloran, in front of a newly built house.
A man and a woman stood in front of the door, holding each other's hands and looking at each other.
The woman looked to be in her twenties. She wore a clean and simple long dress. She looked at the man with reluctance.
On the other hand, the man was clad in armor and had a determined look on his face.
"Dear, are you really going to the battlefield?"
Looking at the man's shiny armor, the woman's eyes showed deep worry.
The man smiled slightly.
"Of course. As a member of the city guards, Maplemoon Free Territory needs me now."
"But … but we just started living a good life …"
The woman couldn't help but say.
The man sighed softly.
"My dear, you must know that our current good days are only possible because of the Life Church, because of the Maple Moon Free Territory."
"If Maplemoon Free Territory is gone, then … we will have nothing."
As he spoke, he reached out to stroke his lover's hair and said gently, "Don't worry.
I've already completed my warrior training with the help of the Elves. I'm now a professional. I'll protect myself. Wait for me at home. "
The woman fell silent.
She lowered her head slightly, and her expression couldn't be seen.
After a while, she reluctantly let go of her lover's hand.
"I'll wait for you at home. You must come back safely."
"Don't worry. I'm still waiting for the child to call me 'Daddy'."
The man smiled.
With that, his gaze became gentle. He looked at his lover's lower abdomen with infinite tenderness.
But soon, his expression turned solemn. He put on his helmet and turned to leave.
Only his wife stood in front of the door, watching her husband's figure gradually blend into the crowd. She stood there for a long time.
"Have you said goodbye to your wife?"
In front of the city gate of Zeloran, Guard Captain Jason looked at the young warrior who had returned to the team. He took a big gulp of ale and asked.
"Yes, I've already said goodbye."
The young warrior nodded gently.
"Sigh … Actually, you didn't have to come. You just got married and are about to become a father. Lady Sophia also mentioned in the recruitment notice that you can stay in the city as a volunteer. You don't have to go to the frontline to defend the border town."
Jason shook his head.
"But the territory needs us. At this moment, in order to protect our home and give our child a better future, someone has to stand up. Not to mention, I'm one of the few people who has received heavy crossbow training from the Elves. I'm very suitable to defend the border."
The young warrior replied with a solemn expression.
Jason was slightly taken aback. Then, his expression became complicated.
"Have you never thought that this might be a sacrifice? If you die, what will happen to your wife? What about your unborn child? "
The young warrior smiled slightly.
"If there really is such a day … I believe that the Free Church will help me take care of them. The Life Church will take care of them."
Looking at his fervent and determined appearance, Jason fell silent.
His gaze was very complicated. After a moment, he sighed softly.
"You're very similar to a friend of mine …"
"Friend?"
The young warrior was slightly taken aback.
Captain Jason nodded, his gaze a little blurred.
He took another big gulp of ale and sighed.
"That's a guy who fought for his faith to the end. Until the end of his life, he was fighting for the Goddess, fighting for the future …"
The young warrior's expression was solemn, and his eyes were full of respect.
"Sounds like a very respectable warrior."
"A warrior …"
Jason murmured.
In his mind, the figure he saw in the magic projection stone shouting in the flames appeared. The sonorous and powerful voice of his old friend appeared. His expression gradually became gentle.
"Yes … a warrior."
"He is indeed a respectable warrior …"
With that, he stretched out his hand, gently closed his eyes, and devoutly drew the symbol of the Scepter of Life on his chest.
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves thundered from outside the city. It was deafening.
The two warriors looked at each other and couldn't help but look outside the city.
They only saw dust flying in the direction of the city.
Fully armed elves riding tall magic beasts were rushing into the distance. As far as the eye could see, there were so many of them that there was no end to them.
The golden flag of the iris flower was constantly fluttering among the troops.
"It's the Elves' Nature's Heart Legion. This should be their last legion to set off. It seems to be the core of the Heart of Nature's Heart. The leader is Lord Demacia."
Looking at the iconic flag, Captain Jason said.
"The elven legion …"
The young warrior's gaze had a trace of respect.
"I really hope that I can be as brave as them …"
"Heh, I'm afraid that's impossible. They are powerful Chosen Ones, the Goddess' family!"
Jason laughed.
"No! We are also believers of the Goddess. We also have to contribute our own strength in this war! "
The young warrior said proudly.
Jason laughed heartily.
"Haha, that's right! We are also believers of Life. We are also a part of the Maple Moon Free Territory. We also have to contribute our own strength! For the Goddess, for the Maple Moon Free Territory, for the beautiful future! "
"That's right! For the Goddess, for the Maple Moon Free Territory, for the beautiful future! "
The young warrior also said excitedly.
Seeing his fighting spirit, Jason couldn't help but be filled with pride.
He finished the rest of the ale in one breath and laughed.
"Let's go! Let's teach those invaders a lesson and let them know the power of the Maple Moon Free Territory! "
"Yes! Let's go! "
The young warrior also laughed and nodded.
They gathered with the other guards and joined up with the army that was rushing to the border defense line. They rushed to the front line.
Behind them, on the city wall.
The Chief Magistrate of the Maple Moon Free Territory, Sophia, stood on the city wall, her gaze fixed on the elven legion that was leaving.
After a few years, the girl had matured even more than before. Her every movement carried dignity and confidence. She was no longer the ignorant noble girl from before.
Apart from the support of the elves, she also contributed greatly to the rapid development of the entire Maple Moon Free Territory in the past few years.
A gentle breeze blew, messing up Sophia's hair and rustling her clothes.
Her gaze followed the elven legion that was like a torrent and watched the fluttering iris flag gradually disappear.
After a long time, she slowly retracted her gaze.
"I'll defend the Maple Moon Free Territory well."
"Good luck … I wish you a safe journey …"
She muttered softly.
At the same time, Demacia, who was leading the guild legion forward, was slightly stunned when he saw the favorability notification floating in front of him.
[Ding —]
[Sophia Von Wells' favorability towards you has increased by 1 …]
Demacia: …
He looked strangely in Ze Rolan's direction and scratched his head speechlessly.
"Her favorability dropped when we met, but why did it increase when she left …"
Demacia was at a loss.
But soon, he adjusted his mood and regained his fighting spirit.
Riding on the Dragonscale Horse and standing on the hillside, Demacia looked ahead.
He could see the boundless Fertile Plains at a glance.
He puffed up his throat and shouted to the players behind him.
"Brothers, are the guys I asked to prepare ready?"
"Ready!"
Behind him, the players shouted in unison.
"Haha, good! Let's go! Let's stab the Eternal Church in the eye! Let's tell them why the flowers are so red! "
Demacia raised his sword and shouted.
"Hahahahaha!"
Behind him, the players laughed loudly.
"Let's go!"
"Let's go-!"
Everyone let out a long whistle and sped up their advance.
The mighty army was like a surging torrent, advancing in the direction of the Empire.
Soon, they disappeared on the horizon.
