Chapter 788 — Crimsonbreaking Faction Territory Goes All Out!

Crimsonbreaking Faction Territory Goes All Out!

While a naval invasion and disembarking was selected as the focal point in the operation, the use of spaceships was indispensable to secure an imminent invasion. Their arrival was remarkably fast. Their battle array formations for space battles were used, enhancing their speed first, before boosting their weaponry firing rate after arriving at their destination. Furthermore, every enemy Fighter was destroyed as soon as it entered the spaceship Frigate's radars, up to over a couple of hundred thousand kilometers.

When these appeared above the Regions’skies, missiles flew like uncontrolled fireworks, twirling in the air before diving towards any defensive structure. As these Regions were millions of kilometers away from the Stormy Calm Sea, they weren’t too focused on building sea defenses.

Their focus was on themselves, as their land was shared with other Regions’ borders. Something the Stormy Calm Sea inhabitants have never experienced. Thus, as the spaceship Frigates descended, the enemy Regions only knew to respond as they would to other forces from inland. They prepared their Frigates to send them into the sky, but they were immediately detected and bombarded to debris by the Crimson spaceships.

Any enemy spaceship or Fighter attempting to fly into the sky was destroyed before it could take off. Any enemy settlement was met with firepower from above, relentlessly neutralizing their reaction speed, as the prospect of their sea territory soon being invaded gnawed at their minds.

Gradually, the spaceships descended even more. But that was only to attract attention. They could only do so much damage without entering the enemy Region’s strongest organizations and Cities’ range. Their hands were somewhat tied, but they were still scary wherever they went.

Days later, the Crimson navy was only a few million kilometers from the enemy Regions. They’ve navigated for several days. The enemy had already learned of the Fleets’ targets, and needless to say, it wasn’t scary at first. After all, these Fleets separated into groups from 4 to 8, while some even went as 2 Fleets towards 1* or 2* shore Regions.

But then, the Fleets suddenly stopped. Before the enemy had time to properly investigate as they were bombarded like hell, the Fleets mounted a ring before them. These were up to 10,000 kilometers in diameter and took half a day to complete. It was a mobile version of the rings back at the Turtle Hiding Region. They were used for sudden transportation.

To have some of these isn’t rare, but to have mobile ones that could be assembled and disassembled was… somewhat unique. Yet, that didn’t catch the enemy’s eyes. What their attention was on was in the sudden appearance of Fleets near their Regions!

The Crimson Fleets suddenly transported into their enemies’ sea territory. Some were met with an enemy Fleet or a few enemy Fleets in the middle of mobilizing to welcome their Fleets in a few days. They weren’t expecting the Crimson Fleets to suddenly appear here. After all, those rings the world knew about before the Chief conquered the islands Regions were of much lower quality than those used to travel through the world.

At most, it would give them the advantage of 1 or 2 million kilometers, and their maintenance and use costs were monumental. Nevertheless, the Crimsons surprised everyone yet again. But they gave the enemy no time to respond. After immediately destroying those enemy Fleets off guard, they moved towards the shore, intending to begin what could also be known as the end of these Regions.

They disembarked, leaving every Region they chose as their victim helpless as they experienced what they’ve seen and were entertained about during the decades when the Stormy Calm Sea warred among themselves. They were terrified, disbelieving, wanting to refuse any of this and go to bed, and let it all disappear the next day.

But that’s just not how things worked. The Crimsons invaded a plethora of 1* and 2* Regions, but there was a 3* Region among the shore Regions. Virtually every Region watched as the Crimsons spread throughout their land like the misery of flames and combustion.

If the Crimson soldier units were capable of turning the environment into poisonous filth, they’d be called the ‘crimson plague’ at the very least. Unfortunately, they only burnt the land and spread their battle and the flames of war throughout.

On the first day, when the Fleets disembarked, the majority of the 1* Regions fell, becoming the Crimsons’ prizes as the spaceships joined each other after the navy disembarked the land forces. They moved on to the next Regions near them, preparing the enemies, who were already doing their everything to set their defenses up.

Even those warring against other Regions further inland or from inner struggle stopped their conflict and prepared to face the imminent, scarier, powerful threat. Some other Regions who were immediate neighbors with the afflicted shore Regions and witnessed the Crimson spaceships joining forces to bombard another Region which didn’t even mobilize outside their land territory, decided to help their neighboring Regions.

Thankfully, the Crimsons didn’t seem interested in them. They didn’t go after those busy body Regions and only bombarded them, stopping when the enemy retreated to City-scale defensive structures, fled back to their Region, several tens of thousands of kilometers away from their current Region target, or were all maimed or annihilated.

The spaceships prepared for a day before the soldier units in the conquered 1* Regions passed on to the next. In just a day, 13 1* Regions were occupied, with the auxiliary units left behind as the prisoners sent to the Stormy Calm Sea’s Regions.

To quickly reorganize the occupied enemy territory, the Turtle Hiding Region made good use of their auxiliary units and distributed them throughout the Fleets. They were of one mind, leader, and goal. Things, such as mutiny, can only be considered if Heian Ciemnosc, the Crimsonbreaking Faction, and the spaceship Frigates suddenly disappeared.

The auxiliary units were used to their job. Even those new after the first expansion war felt like they’ve done the planning and reconstruction for decades. They received good training from their seniors. They immediately set the unrest in the civilians’ hearts at ease, securing their safety and well-being with the distribution of fasting and cohesive pills to relax one’s mind.

On the other hand, the secondary target Regions, after the first fell, were in disorder. They didn’t do anything to defend their neighbors immediately for 2 reasons. One, they wanted to first arrange defenses for their Region, which couldn’t be blamed. However, the second, because they didn’t want to offend the Crimsonbreaking Faction territory in case they weren’t interested in their Region, was quite underhanded and shallow.

Nevertheless, they were invaded just 1 day, 2, or 3 days since the Crimsonbreaking Faction’s land forces landed on their shores.

When the numerous shore Regions were falling, with only the 3* Region maintaining their foothold so far, the other Regions finally realized how scary everything was. Those 4 to 8 Fleets, or 2 Fleets, sent to each shore Region now showed how terrifying they really were. Not to mention their arsenal, just their sheer number was astounding. Even Fourth Step organizations wouldn’t have main forces of this kind.

After taking care of the majority of the Regions in a group of such, the soldier units camped outside the Small and Medium Cities, arranging for the upcoming wars where they’d occupy the remaining Regions further inland. They wouldn’t just stop here and find a good place to relax after winning over ‘some’ Regions.

2 weeks went by since the Crimsonbreaking Faction territory crazily decided to send their troops outside their safe, isolated, and rich as hell Stormy Calm Sea. Only 1 Region remained unoccupied, that 3* Region.

… In that Region, which was to the central western direction of the Crimsonbreaking Faction territory, the Crimsonbreaking Faction territory’s land forces and few spaceship Frigates had a tough time subjugating it. Only 4 Fleets were sent there, with only a little over 2 billion soldier units.

The enemy Region managed to unite over 4 billion soldier units in just a few days, amassing an enormous defensive force that could only be slowly breached and chipped way like a metallic blade in order to take it. Currently, 70% of the enemy Region territory was under the Crimsons’ hands, but the enemy still had too many anti-missile turrets and machine guns to down their soldier units.

At this very moment, a battle that could potentially lead to a decisive defeat of the enemy, or a prolonged war in case the Crimsons failed, was happening. 2 fallen down Frigates formed a little mountain just 700,000 kilometers from the Large City. Citizens climbed onto it, aiming their rifles and receiving inaccurate energy attacks and machine guns’ bullets while the enemy artillery, which was few, was focused on the battlefield tens of thousands of kilometers in front of the 2 fallen Frigates.

The cultivators were fighting there, numbering almost 300 million against 500 enemy million cultivators. This was just another battle where the enemy wanted to put the Crimsons’ advancement lower than down. The Crimsons had already lost 100 million soldier units, in just a few days. If they wanted to stop losing so many comrades, they had to rely on something else other than continuously fighting a prepared enemy. Of course, the other side had nearly lost a billion, but the Crimsons were getting tired from the incessant operations within the Region.

“… Anything?!” A citizen fired a shot, nearly got his head blown off by a bullet, and frowned as he felt the mental fatigue pain over his mind. He looked behind him while gasping for air, asking a citizen preparing to take a shot. The latter looked at him and shook his head, “Nuh uh. It’s still as the Captain said. We can only wait for their arrival.”

“Ah, fuck. I had to volunteer to here, heh.” The first citizen said, shaking his head with a rueful smile. The other citizen nodded slightly and prepared to aim, when the tired citizen before him stopped him. “Wait!”

“Sir, I must continue fighting. I’m not tired. You may rest, but I cannot do nothing while comrades are falling to the dirt, lifeless before us-” The second citizen said, elaborating on his emotions, but his superior shook his head and widened his eyes, looking behind him.

“Gooly mawly, they’re here! Advance!! Charge! Let the fucking dogs out!” The superior shouted in incredible ecstasy. His eyes crazily widened before placing his rifle on his back before skipping down the metallic mountain. This left the second citizen speechless.

The other citizens were confused before following their superior. Then, the second citizen looked behind him, where he saw a thousand Frigates appear through illusory clouds, an illusion array formation the Crimsons formed before their reinforcements arrived. His mind went numb, but he still thought, ‘Damn… The special force really has a thousand spaceship Frigates… What kind of nonsense is that?!’

The special force were already too powerful. Who knew what they could do with a thousand spaceships? Besides, miss Xue Yoler was also the ‘supreme commander’ of the special force’s armada. She could also move from the navy to the armada however she wished to. Meanwhile, the acclaimed Anastasia was a little war goddess.

Numerous movies and plays were made to honor the special force. After all, they did some of the most absurdly amazing feats during the Stormy Calm Sea’s conquest. Without them, the losses of the Crimsons would’ve been way above a billion in the end.

“What… is that?!” The enemy commanders realized what was happening as soon as it happened. Spaceship Frigates suddenly tore the illusory clouds and aimed directly down at them, menacingly advancing as they seemed heavy. Then, they saw it…

“RUUUUUUUUUUUN!” - “TO THE LARGE CITY- AH FUCK! GET AWAAAAAAY!”

Hundreds of thousands of missiles overflew the sky behind and beside the Frigates, tearing any sense of rationality in the enemies’ brains. When they became aware of the special force’s target wasn’t them but the Large City, they slowly stopped and watched…

Little by little, thousands of Frigates flew over their heads, tens of thousands of kilometers, and neared their Large City.

TA- RARARARARARARARARARA!!… PRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR~~~~!!!!

The Large City immediately fired into the sky, as if everything it was ever worth for was to create an infinitude of machine guns’ firing lines towards the heavens and break apart the sky. The special force Frigates continued flying towards the Large City despite the insane number of bullets flying their way. Windy barriers formed around them as they all crossed the illusory clouds. Another batch of missiles followed.

Meanwhile, the first half was already falling towards the Large City and forced to detonate as the enemy defended their last bastion like hundreds of volcanoes erupting nonstop. It seemed as if the first half of the missiles the Crimsons sent exploded on an invisible line, but this was only the results of the enemy’s intensive firepower. Nevertheless, a third of the missiles still made it through their ‘barricade’ and exploded against their grand array formation.

RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMBLEEEEEEE~~~!!!

The world shook left and right obsessively and obscenely before the special force Frigates nose-dived without caring about the missiles behind them. Just when it looked like the Frigates were sacrificing themselves, they shot up into the sky, and by inertia, the missiles behind them gained their windy barrier and pulling speed!!

The first batch of missiles left the Large City trembling. The citizens within felt the corners of their heads bleeding, but it was only internal. While that was worse, the citizens had already been evacuated. On the other hand, the cultivators were shaken by the special force’s actions.

Just as they were recuperating from a third of the missiles exploding on them, they helplessly watched as another hundreds of thousands of missiles nose-dived towards them. Their grand array formation was damaged but could still resist. Yet, with these missiles… would at half the Large City be left behind?

Those missiles were focused on one spot. Even with the protective array formations barriers, it could immediately level a third of a Large City. The cultivators rapidly formed endless Arts to face off the missiles. The citizens couldn’t do anything, and anything they sent to the missiles was deviated and only added to the fiery, sudden speed burst the missiles received after being covered by that barrier. Only a fifth were forced to detonate before they fell like rain on an umbrella. One which popped and tragically cracked with a deafening sound across the Region.

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!…

Before the explosion was even over, the Frigates that rushed into the sky and let their modified missiles adopt the Elemental Wind Eye barriers they left behind, returned and joined the remaining Frigates still flying towards the Large City. They carefully entered the Large City like cockroaches getting into one’s vase or toothpaste, meticulous and thorough.

“…!” - “…!” - “…!” From afar, the scene was even more peculiar yet silent and cozy. When the enemy sobered up, they felt dread. On the other hand, the Crimsons waited around them, with their battle array formations active again, and tens of millions of soldier units aiming their rifles and armored vehicles’ machine guns at them.

“… We… surrender!” An enemy cultivator said before dropping his Sky grade gauntlets and falling to his knees. His actions were followed a few seconds later by some of his comrades. They silently knelt and waited for the Crimson cultivators to apprehend them. Some of them still had struggles in their hearts and Souls, but when they were shackled around their wrists and shoulders by something, they felt constricted and incapable of using energy.

They could break these ‘chains’ away, but their instincts told them it would be very… consequential.

The war still raged in the Large City, but the land forces needed a few days to arrive there. On the other hand, they weren’t worried about the special force, but they wouldn’t not hurry. They set off immediately after sending about 30 million soldier units to retreat with the prisoners. The Fleets were ready to bring them to the Turtle Hiding Region’s fortress, which had become a massive prison for the Crimsons’ enemies.

It was like this that the war in the mainland began, and in just a month, everything leading to the ocean became the Crimsonbreaking Faction… territory. Once again, the fangs of the infamous, redoubtable beast unleashed. This time, as per the Chief’s, black monster, words, the Lsefattern Kingdom will know the Crimsonbreaking Faction territory’s paradise.

… However, this wasn’t just any Kingdom-deciding conflict. When the Wrath Nihility Academy was attacked, the world turned their eyes towards it, and everyone was interested because of the Academy’s reputation. Now, it was the Crimsonbreaking Faction territory. Previously, an object to thirst on because of their connection with the Great Sage, be it positively or negatively.

Now, they had made their move on a stage that hadn’t been set, but they’ve stepped into the world’s attention again, and it was exactly as the world depicted them to be. The ferocious, unstoppable, fearsome, warriors-like Crimsons. They set their eyes on the border Kingdom!

As the war unfolded, the Crimson news anchor, not officially named as such, was the first to cover the actions of the military and the results from just the first day. Of course, they were only allowed to when the 3* Region suffered the massive incursion into their Large City.

The special force had holed themselves in the Large City’s central building after Molto’s assassins massacred every living being within, except for the Universe realm cultivators that were handled by their respective equals of the Crimsonbreaking Faction. Of course, the news anchor only obtained footage from the outside and after Molto and her people did their job.

They also had different points of view from the massive bombardment to the enemy Large City. This much was enough for an armada Fleet to lose ⅓ of their missile storage without counting rockets or the Carrier’s storage. And about half or more from a naval Fleet.

It was an all-shocking wastage that made many people, even Fourth Step organizations’ hierarchy, believe this would mark a stop before the Crimsons made another move, somewhat used to their modus operandi. However, just 3 days after the 3* Region was occupied, the Crimsons set off again.

However, because the 3* Region was much larger than any 1* or 2* Regions, they spent 3 more days relaxing before advancing to the next Region farther to the west. Meanwhile, their comrade soldier units warred the adjacent Regions to the 3* Region with a much easier time since no other Regions could help them. The only one that could have done that was the 3* Region, which just fell under the Crimsons’ hands.

Suddenly, the Crimsonbreaking Faction territory expanded over 2 times its size, without counting the sea territory, which was vaster and deeper. Besides, the Crimsonbreaking Faction territory didn’t have actual control over the ocean, just the territory above its surface.

Nevertheless, the map enthusiasts formed graphics of what seemed to display the Crimsonbreaking Faction territory’s actions. From the day they navigated outside the Stormy Calm Sea to the moment where the first Regions were taken down. The ‘fireworks’ stopped, and the Regions became dark. Only when the sun raised could they see a new Region undergoing their transformation and reconstruction.

Then, as the 3* Region fell, billions of auxiliary units descended in it, while the special force left.

Those missiles the special force used were from their navy. Since the Fleets wouldn’t be of much help after a few Regions more around their expanded territory, they could only use them this way. The crimsons had devised a method to ‘share’ their missiles, but only with status and Soul-referred mechanisms across their systems.

It was something silly and ‘small’, but actually very useful, and a way to make naval Fleets worthwhile despite the far distance from their objective. The Fleets were already somewhat helpless to bombard the first enemy 3* Region’s Large City, which was purposely built farthest from the ocean as possible without leaving too much freedom to become surrounded by the neighboring Regions.

Now that the first round of invasions ended, and the second round began, the Lsefattern Kingdom experienced their first Kingdom-deciding factor. This wasn’t the Stormy Calm Sea’s Regions’ Era. It was the entire Lsefattern Kingdom undergoing it. All under the Chief’s, the black monster’s, claws.
