Death... and mechapter 1938: planning the attack

At the same time that the communication system was being connected to the spirit and humanoid races, it was also extending inside their own territories. To be more specific, the main areas where they were being used were close to the borders of the devils' territories.

The humanoid races were in the southeast, while the demon beasts were in the northwest. Because of that, the spirits were located in the southwest, opposite the devils in the northeast.

'Diblue and his bunch are already getting everything in order. I had Havek train a few Formation Masters and send them into the spirit races' territories to help them spread the communication system. Because the spirit races' territory is opposite the devils, Diblue needed to start ahead since he'll need to use our own territories to attack,' Folesve explained.

Diblue was a Heaven and Earth Spirit. No, that was basically a kind of title. Instead, Diblue was a Divine Gargantua Spirit, known for their capability to break everything into its basic elements and use them in their cultivation.

The demon beasts had their Divine Demon Beasts with strong bloodlines, like the Minokawas, Dragons, Phoenixes, etc. For the spirits, it was the Heaven and Earth Spirits. However, it wasn't the same. Any spirit could become a Heaven and Earth Spirit. It's just that it was extremely difficult to take that step. Simply put, that was what spirits that reached the highest cultivation of the Realm of Gods were called.

Diblue just so happened to be in the same position as Placake in the demon beast race. He was the one they considered their leader. In Folesve's case, he was only one of the four experts on the four humanoid powers, so his words only counted for 25% of the humanoid races. Nevertheless, these same leaders of the humanoid races were also on Folesve's side and were listening to the entire conversation in Folesve's badge.

Placake nodded in response. 'His spirit races should be a lot easier to move than my demon beast races. Seven to eight decades are more than enough for him to move the spirits to all the borders within our territories. We will provide the teleport formations too. With the communication system, keeping everything running smoothly should be possible.'

'Seven to eight decades...' Folesve couldn't help but be impressed with the communication system. Instead of super expensive Thoughts Transmission Talismans that could only be used once, now they could exchange messages nonstop. And that could be done by any member of both races. 'I've never thought a joint attack by all three territories could be organized in such record time. The devils definitely won't expect what's coming for them.'

Placake nodded again. 'Especially since the DPUs that control the system are located inside our most protected locations. Without them, the devils won't be able to copy us, even if they steal a few antennas here and there. We can't let this opportunity pass. They are strong, so they completely underestimate us. I wouldn't be surprised if they're still completely clueless about what's happening in our territories since only a few know what the antennas are there for.'

'Indeed,' Folesve agreed with him. 'Very well, seven to eight decades. I also have a proposal. We need to gather in Cramglot and manage the war through the system from there. Naturally, Diblue, you, and I will stay inside our own sides of the city, separated by the Gods' Dividing Barrier.'

Placake then mentioned something else. 'The Gods' Dividing Barrier will be the main issue in the attack. If we go ahead with it, we'll need to spend quite a lot to get ourselves through it. Or...'

Folesve narrowed his eyes and looked at the other leaders of the humanoid races. They knew very well what Placake wanted to say when he paused his words. 'Asking it to stop will cost us even more. You know that, right?'

'If the humanoid, spirit, and demon beast races join hands, we can definitely convince it,' Placake said. 'Or could it be that you would rather risk being stopped by the barrier at a pivotal moment?'

In the end, Folesve accepted it with his companions. 'Very well. We'll bring this matter up to Diblue since his spirit race will have to contribute as well. If he accepts, we'll join together to negotiate with that thing.'

Placake faintly smiled in response. 'That's more like it. For the sake of driving the devils away, this is a price worth paying.'

Placake then finished the call and looked at Rean and the other Formation Masters. "Alright, we'll need to spread it through all the borders. We need to make it in a way that the information won't stop flowing just because we lost one or two antennas. Can your System Sect guarantee that?"

Rean, Rawor, and the other Formation Masters were talking to Havek and the Formation Masters on the humanoid races' side when Placake asked that.

Yet, it wasn't the first time Rean heard that question. "You already asked that a few dozen times. I told you, this is a web-like system. Just because you destroyed one antenna, that doesn't mean the system will stop working. Instead, it'll simply try to follow a new route until it finds a path. Don't worry. We're spreading it very well and making sure each antenna is well protected."

"It better be," Placake warned him.

Linfia, who was also there, took the chance to ask Rean about something else. "Do you have time now to look into our bloodline formations? The rest of them can spread the antennas, can't they? If possible, we want to improve it with the Circuitry Formations."

Rean received Linfia's Blue Luan Bloodline Formation the day he reached a deal with Placake. Yet, he hadn't looked into it until now since the communication system was his priority. "I can take a look. However, I can't guarantee anything. Bloodline and Circuitry Formations are really completely different from one other."

"So you can finally look into it. Don't worry. I have some Blue Luans who understand the formation to help you." Linfia was satisfied that Rean could at least pay attention to it now.
