After making the decision, Lu Wu immediately activated the game notification and summoned all the players who were outside.
Without further ado, Lu Wu led the players across the space and headed toward the Predator Star Zone.
Due to the long distance, Lu Wu had to make two consecutive space jumps to reach the Predator Star Zone.
Following the coordinates provided by the intelligence agency, they entered the Bo Lang World, one of the strongholds of the Iron and Blood Alliance that recruited foreign forces.
This world would be one of the battlefields between the two forces.
The Bo Lang World was not big, it was about half the size of the Three Realms.
This time, the Iron and Blood Alliance was on the defensive side, and it was their nemesis, the Alien Army, that wanted to occupy this world. The war would soon begin with the arrival of the Alien Army.
…
As soon as Lu Wu and the players landed in this world, they were detected by the Iron and Blood Alliance's stronghold. Starships hovered in the air and quickly surrounded Lu Wu and the players.
However, after Lu Wu took out the recruitment order from the intelligence agency, the defense was immediately lifted. He and the players were brought into the iron city of the Iron and Blood Alliance in this world.
Without saying much, the Predator who was in charge of receiving the foreign forces brought them to an empty area and then put runes that looked like barcodes on their arms one by one.
In this regard, Lu Wu had also asked them the reason for doing so.
The Predator who was in charge of receiving them explained that the bar runes were a kind of technological product.
It was used to detect battle achievements. As long as they killed the Alien in battle, the bar code would automatically record their battle achievements.
In this way, there would be no problem of falsely claiming the battle achievements.
This method really amazed Lu Wu and the players, but at the same time, they felt regretful.
When they were discussing in the forum before they came, they did have the idea of falsely claiming the battle achievements.
After all, it was so chaotic at the beginning of the war. Who knew how many they had killed? Naturally, the more the better.
However, they did not expect the Iron and Blood Alliance to be prepared and implant barcodes on their right arms.
After that, the person in charge took out a microcomputer and began to check the strength of the players through the barcodes.
As this force was about to invade the players' bodies, the artifact immediately blocked it.
However, Lu Wu quickly gave it permission. After all, it was just a check and it was not a big problem. It was just a calculation of their combat strength.
Soon, a series of numbers appeared in the person's mind.
Number of Divine Realm: XXX
Number of Void Realm: 0
Number of Great Emperors: 1 (Peak Great Emperor)
…
Looking at the numbers, the person in charge nodded in satisfaction, but he wasn't surprised.
This was because their combat strength was not particularly high. The only thing that satisfied him was Lu Wu's strength at the peak of Great Emperor Realm.
At this moment, his attitude toward Lu Wu had changed.
The Predators respected the strong. This was a very realistic but also very cruel point.
Then, the person in charge brought Lu Wu and the players to a place in the Iron City to settle down. He told them that they could go to the battlefield when the war began.
At the same time, the person in charge said that their achievements on the battlefield would be accurately recorded, and nothing would be missed.
Even if one of the clansmen died, the clansmen's battle achievements would not be lost because they had already been grouped into a group. The battle achievements of the dead warriors would be reflected to the leader of the group, Lu Wu.
Hearing this, Lu Wu could not help but lament that technology was indeed power.
Without the support of technology, the counting of battle merits would be exhausting. Moreover, there would be no way to eliminate the problem of false reports and false claims.
…
In the following month, Lu Wu and the players spent their time waiting.
Since there were no entertainment facilities here, they had nothing to do before the war began.
Moreover, they might encounter another problem. The Alien Legion would not come.
Although there were important resource points that the Alien Legion wanted, the Predator Galaxy was huge. Even if the Alien Legion attacked separately, it was impossible to predict which world they would attack first.
Lu Wu, who was extremely bored, began to discuss the war in the forum while waiting with the players.
During this period, a player made a suggestion that caught Lu Wu's attention.
This was what the player said.
"Since we can get a pension even if we die or get injured in battle, why don't we start with the pension? We can't earn much by exchanging our military exploits for rewards. So, can't the damned officials let us stay in the outside world for a while without turning into a black fog and return to the Space? We can lie in the outside world for a while and scam some money out of it."
This suggestion caused a huge reaction among the players.
After some consideration, Lu Wu felt that it was feasible. Thus, the plan to cheat the compensation was decided.
After waiting for about 40 days, Lu Wu and the players' plan to cheat the compensation gradually came to fruition.
It was also at this time that the war alarm sounded in the city.
The Predator Warrior who was in charge of Lu Wu's force arrived immediately. He gave Lu Wu the coordinates and asked them to join the war.
As the huge interstellar fleet rose into the air, Lu Wu and the outworld forces who came to work followed suit.
…
At this time, a huge gap appeared in the eastern sky of the Bo Lang World. Densely packed Alien Species descended from the sky and descended to the world below.
The war in the outworld was direct and cruel. There was no need for words and it would start at any moment.
At this moment, the Predator Army took the lead in activating their technological weapons and began a carpet bombing. A large number of Alien Species were killed in this wave of bombardment.
However, this was only the beginning. As more and more Xenomorphs entered this world, they cleverly began to disperse instead of gathering together.
At this moment, the eastern sky and the ground were filled with Alien Species.
Their body shape was very much like that of a dinosaur. They had four legs and a long tail full of sharp barbs. The two front legs were very different from the two back legs. They could stand upright with their thick hind legs while their front limbs were used for grabbing things. They also had a long and pointed head. Their entire body was grayish-brown and they moved very quickly.
The most powerful weapon of the Alien Species was their extremely sharp tongue. It could easily pierce through most of the defenses of the Predator Alliance.
This was a real killing machine. Every part of its body was a weapon.
Even the blood in its body had a strong corrosive ability. If one was splashed by the blood, death would be the only outcome for those without a strong physique.
…
After rounds of bombardment, the Alien Species had already dispersed. The effect of continued bombardment was no longer obvious.
At this moment, the Predator Army, who was wearing a special combat armor, was mobilized.
They marched in neat steps toward the frontline where the Alien Species were advancing.
The war began. Lu Wu led the players to follow behind the Predator Army and also approached the frontline.
In front of the mighty army of Xenomorphs, Lu Wu could see that the foreign forces that were recruited around him were very nervous.
The only people who could remain calm at this moment were Lu Wu and the players.
As the two sides approached each other, the Predator Army began to charge. They marched forward like a steel torrent with an unstoppable momentum.
In the first wave of attack, the Predator Army distanced itself from the recruited army and went straight into the area where the Alien Species were relatively concentrated.
However, there were still many Alien Species that broke through the defense from above and came into contact with Lu Wu and the other recruited forces.
The battle that belonged to them had just begun.
The players were the first to attack. They fearlessly faced the Alien Species Army.
Soon, several nearby forces followed the players and attacked decisively.
The moment the battle began, screams could be heard everywhere. There were the screams of the players and the screams of other foreign forces.
After killing the Alien Species, the blood that splattered from their bodies would instantly corrode the armor and flesh. It was truly painful.
In response, the players decisively turned off the pain function and entered the battle mode.
Killing monsters earned soul coins and experience points. Although the players planned to cheat the compensation money, they would only do it when the war was nearing its end.
Now, killing the Alien Species was their main priority and they could maximize the benefits as much as possible.
Although Lu Wu and the players were not the strongest foreign forces that were recruited this time, the players were not inferior to the Alien Species in terms of ferocity.
The players' battle achievements kept increasing as they killed. At the same time, there were also players who fell in battle.
However, this time, Lu Wu did not turn their bodies into black mist and enter the Artifact Space because he wanted to cheat the compensation money.
In the battle, the horrors of the Alien Species were gradually revealed.
The players discovered that, after the death of the warriors of other races, there would be newborn Alien Species bursting out of their chests from time to time. They did not even notice when the Alien Species laid eggs on their bodies.
Moreover, the newborn Alien Species grew at an astonishing speed. They constantly devoured flesh and blood on the battlefield and quickly entered adulthood before joining the battle again.
Some of the warriors who were still fighting would suddenly have their stomachs inflate as if they were inflated. Then, their chests would burst open and newborn Alien Species would jump out.
The players shuddered at the sight. Fortunately, they were protected by the Artifact and would not have their Bloodline Power sucked away …
The war was undoubtedly cruel. Although the Iron Blood Army was at the forefront, the battle at the rear also caused the players and the foreign forces to suffer greatly.
The battle lasted for five days. Finally, the Iron Blood Army killed their way to the gap in the sky and repaired it. The battle ended after that.
The subsequent task was to clean up the battlefield and kill all the invading Alien Species.
The ruthless Iron Blood Warriors would even test their own people. If they found that their people were parasitized, they would cut open their stomachs and take out the Alien Eggs inside.
The foreign forces that came to recruit were no exception. As long as they were detected, they would be forced to cut open their stomachs.
As the Iron Blood Army cleaned up the battlefield, the number of Alien Species on the battlefield decreased. At this moment, Lu Wu knew it was time to take action.
"Pretend to be dead, it's starting!"
Hearing these words, the remaining 230,000 players bent their legs and laid down on the ground according to the plan.
If that was all, it would be impossible to deceive the Iron Blood Warriors.
Then, Lu Wu put their souls into a semi-dormant state. They were in an extremely weak state. At the same time, scars appeared on the surface of the players' bodies. Together with the scars from the previous battle, they looked really miserable.
With the help of the Artifact, all the players fell into a pseudo-death state.
What was the highest state of deception? It was the truth!
It was impossible to die because they would receive less money if they died. They had to be in this half-dead state.
The Iron Blood Warriors would cover the dead with a piece of white cloth. Although there was no glory in dying, at least they had worked hard.
It was more like a ceremony to remember the dead.
The war ended. All the wounded were carried into the Iron Fortress. Lu Wu met the person in charge of the Iron Blood Army again.
He told Lu Wu regretfully that he had checked the condition of the bodies of the soldiers. Although they were still alive, they probably would not wake up for the rest of their lives …
At the same time, the person in charge also brought the resources equivalent to the battle achievements and additional compensation to Lu Wu.
At this moment, Lu Wu and the players were overjoyed.
It did not matter whether they woke up or not. The most important thing was to get the compensation.
After getting the resources he wanted, Lu Wu told the person in charge that he wanted to bring back the bodies of all the dead clansmen and bury them in their hometown. He also said that he would bring a new group of clansmen back to rejoin the battle.
In response to Lu Wu's idea, the person in charge of the Iron Blood Army said solemnly that he would welcome him back at any time.
Just like that, the Iron Blood Alliance's bankruptcy was on the right track.
No one would have thought that the key to the Iron Blood Alliance's destruction was not the rise of the Alien Species, but the internal conflict …
