Server 1157

*** Five minutes ago, The Civil Hall ***

"What is the plan, Buck?" Gemma of SbG asked who had maintained her calm since the beginning of the meeting.

"Our enemy is Server World 1213. A newer World than us. So it means, they are not stronger. But of course, this theory was certain until a few weeks ago. Until our Sorrowful Day… Half of our people died. Even if their power levels were not high… We are much weaker now. Therefore, we are not sure how our enemy compares to us in terms of power now. Also, psychologically, our entire society is in a bad situation right now. Therefore, I recommend only being defensive in this War!"

"Defensive? Won't we be more likely to lose then?"

"It is possible of course, Gofu. But sending people to the enemy server World in these psychological conditions will also be suicidal. I do not want to lose more people! Trust me, I have a plan to win. And the chance of winning for the defensive plan is much more than an attacking simulation!"

"How?"

"Firstly, we will place our friends who are unable to fight in Shelter of the South as usual. However, unlike the old wars, we will hide our strongest archers among them! They will kill any enemy near there!"

"Wouldn't we need them in front lines, Buck?"

"Under normal circumstances, yes, West. But we lack army power in this War, so we should use our resources very carefully this time. In addition, this tactic is not unusual, as the Shelter is a structure that cannot allow living beings to enter or exit unless it is destroyed from the outside. You know, Shelters are protected by forces stationed outside. We have always done this in the past, and so have our enemies. Therefore, this tactic will be a big surprise for our enemy this time…"

"Yes, kinda… Even it was while we heard it. And next?"

"This archer unit will be a mix of alliances. But the Shelter will be protected from the outside also. by AnD Alliance fully… Of course, if you accept it, West…"

"Sure, I am ok for protecting mission!"

"Ok, thanks. And Gemma. Your alliance, SbG has merged with TTD. So protecting here, the Temple of The North will not be an impossible task for you I think."

"Yeah, kinda"

"Glad. Thank you. And of course, this place, meaning your alliance, will be the information center of the war. All fronts will send their messengers if there is a sudden situation that needs to be known to everyone. Including reporting on the routine conduct of the war…" He then looked at the oni's Eli(zabeth).

"Name it, Buck. We are ready for any help."

"Well, your mission will be kinda an unorganized stuff. Oni and Res alliances will be constantly mobile, visiting alliance hives. In fact, the hives will be empty since we will direct all our players to the Shelter and the battlefield. However, since the enemy is not sure of this, they will send ambush teams to the hives."

"So we will hunt them… But what if they don't? Wouldn't you be increasing the risk by leaving the power of the Oni and Res alliances out of the war?"

"Theoretically, yes. But what I really expect from you is not to actually hunt the raid teams. That is only a side quest. Your main task will be…"

Eli grinned "Hunting The Floating Cemeteries?"

"Exactly!"

"Ok, I liked it, we will do that, Buck!"

"Ok, then, we, BRe will be stationed on the Sanctuary of the Eastern Hills… And will try to stop any enemies coming by teleports. Of course, this will not be easy for us as the hills are too large to handle completely. The enemy will not come immediately because they think we will be the first to attack because we are strong. However, when a few hours have passed and they realize the situation, they will take action with their strongest and most agile. In other words, some of them will pass through the line and infiltrate our world without us seeing, thanks to their speed, while some of them will kill some of our friends and set out for your fronts…"

"What about us, Buck?" Darkheat of xJx spoke for all remaining alliances. "I guess you want us to guard the ruins of the Throne Castle but it would be much better if we help BRe Alliance I think…"

"Ah, no Heat. I don't want you to protect either those useless rubble or us. All other alliances will assist non-BRe alliances by choosing the fronts they desire."

"Ah perfect! Then we…" Gofu looked at Pump while speaking. "Non-allianced factions will be protecting those rubbles in the Throne Jungle…"

"Well, the thing is I do not want to anyone to protect that Castle anymore, Gofu. You all read the system messages. We do not have an Enthronement event anymore. So it means, no points to the enemy in there. But yes, the enemy doesn't know this so they will go there as soon as they step on our World. So the non-allianced factions will circle the Throne Jungle as if we want to protect it. So you will be free to kill them since you will not have a purpose to protect the inside. So definitely, definitely don't step into the Jungle! Just stay outside and defend. It will be much easier by this way because you will not be debuffed by the system. But please, target the red-eyed players first. I don't want to harm untransformed players unnecessarily who did not kill others. Of course, the survival of the players in our own World is the first priority. I hope they have more than enough red-eyed players for us to collect enough points to live so we don't have to make such a choice."

"Tsch, not a super adrenaline plan for us…" Gofu, who initially responded with a dissatisfied expression, returned to normal. "But of course, I am ok as long as I get enough bloodshed. And I am sure the strongest will come to us! Heh he."

Suddenly, annoying scratching sounds and groans began to come from the huge door of the Civil Hall.

"The hell is this!?" 

And right after that, the door burst open and a yellow-armored oni player rushed in in panic.

However, a wolf jumped in right behind him, ran faster than him, came to Gofu, and tried to move him by smelling him and poking him with its head.

"Aren't you one of the animals of that Russian guy?"

"I AM SORRY FOR MY RUSH, MY QUEEN! BUT WE ARE IN DANGER!" The oni player acted quickly and reported to Eli.

"Gofu, look at its neck!"

Noticing the paper around the wolf's neck with Eli's warning, Gofu ripped it off, read it, and quickly stood up."Hey, guyz! It seems the meeting ends. All of you, return to your hives immediately!"

"What happened, Gofu?" Trying to understand the situation, Buck looked at him with a suspicious expression, but when he heard the sound of the back door of the Civil Hall being smashed, he quickly made a move with his sword... Of course, the others too!

"EVERYONE, GET BACK! HE IS MINE!!!" It was Eli's blue dragon, Fafnir that burst in with attack mode, and as quickly as it entered, it quickly reached the newly emerged oni player, grabbed him with its claws, and carried it out the other door.

"WHAT IS THIS, ELI!" Pump, Heat, and the other leaders ... Even the oni's Tenq looked at Eli, not understanding why she was attacking one of her own members. Because this member was a reliable member who had been in oni for a long time, and whom Tenq also knew.

"Damn, you are too lazy, guys! My Fafnir is killed. Now, be aware of the impact!" And as soon as Eli's sentence was finished, the roof and entrance wall of the Civil Hall were shattered into pieces by hard impacts...
