Chapter 107: 24-Hour Countdown, The Civilization War Begins!
"Since that is the case, then let us implement the first option!"
"Starting immediately, all countries will successively cancel their previous orders, disperse their armed forces to every part of the country, and coordinate with the security forces in their respective regions to maintain order!"
"Meeting adjourned!"
With the successful adoption of the first plan, this general meeting gathering all countries of the Azure Star was declared over.
Representatives from different countries and regions successively returned.
The moment they relayed the content passed in this meeting, the plan was quickly implemented, and the armed forces that were supposed to be concentrated began to disperse to various regions within their countries.
They would follow the local security forces to maintain order before the arrival of the civilization war!
The next day.
Following the positive response of countries around the world to the Human Alliance plan.
The number of homicide cases decreased significantly.
The homicide cases, which exceeded a thousand in the first 6 hours of the first night, were reduced to a mere hundred yesterday!
This favorable change in the situation soothed the panic of the Azure Star public quite a bit. Today, citizens began to walk out of their homes, arriving at squares, parks, and other places for leisure and entertainment to relax.
Online platforms.
Netizens also sparked a new round of discussion.
【Yesterday really scared me to death.】
【Who's to say it didn't? My neighbor was assassinated that very night just because they posted some content online related to War Designer No. 009!】
【Sigh, according to the documents released by the Human Alliance: these lunatics kill according to a pattern. They seem to only kill people related to that Designer, preferring to kill a thousand innocent people rather than let one slip away!】
【I'm a bit puzzled, how do they determine who is related to that Designer?】
【Yeah, if I remember correctly, that Designer never revealed their identity from beginning to end, right? Let alone these murderers, even the big shots in the Human Alliance don't know who he is!】
【So those guys are just killing based on their own subjective consciousness.】
【Whoever he feels is related to the Designer, he kills!】
【That's too outrageous!】
【I was wondering why so few people went out yesterday, and even the internet was quiet; so that was the reason!】
【These lunatics killing people so indiscriminately will definitely face retribution!】
【Retribution came the very next day.】
【The countries of the world are successively sending legion forces to various places, coordinating with security forces to maintain order, and by the way, rounding up these lunatics!】
【Nice!】
【I don't think doing this is very good.】
【Although the Human Alliance has maintained pre-war order by doing this and avoided the spread of fear among the crowd, the legion forces of various countries have been dispersed!】
【Once the civilization war begins, our Azure Star will be unable to respond to the Kanluo Civilization with full force because our strength is not concentrated. By then, the impact will be huge!】
【Uh, brother above, I'll say something unpleasant: do you think our Azure Star can beat the Kanluo Civilization even if we concentrate our forces?】
【At first, I thought we had a chance of winning, but after becoming a War Designer and coming into contact with the terrifying power of the Skynet System... I realized the huge gap between Azure Star and the Kanluo Civilization that has long been connected to the war era!】
【Exactly.】
【It is impossible to win relying solely on the power of the Azure Star; the only one we can rely on is him!】
【Dispersing the armed forces to maintain local security is also to protect him. As long as he is still alive, the greater our chance of victory!】
【And the way to judge if he is still alive is to see if the five constants instance is still running.】
The online platform was very lively after order was restored.
Netizens, who had been holding back for a day, were actively engaging in heated discussions on forums, short video platforms, and elsewhere.
At the same time, they also opened the war panel from time to time to watch the five constants instance.
Only after confirming that the five constants instance was running normally could they release the boulder hanging in their hearts and continue surfing the internet.
This situation continued.
As the armed forces invested by each country in every region increased, the number of troublemaking defectors caught grew more and more.
Time passed in the blink of an eye.
In the blink of an eye.
Several more days passed.
The countdown for the two civilizations to start the war shortened imperceptibly.
【24 hours 00 minutes 21 seconds】
After this final countdown ends, this dark forest elimination game designated by the Skynet System is about to begin.
"It's here!"
The moment the 21 seconds passed, Su Qiu suddenly opened his eyes.
As a Level 5 War Designer, he could perceive things that many others could not, such as the power of the Skynet System being applied to the Azure Star starting to increase!
【24 hours 00 minutes 00 seconds!】
There was only one day left in the countdown to the civilization war between the Azure Star and the Kanluo Civilization!
At this very moment!
A majestic and mysterious power suddenly enveloped the entire Azure Star!
At this moment, all Azure Star inhabitants, including Su Qiu, could clearly see several meteors with brilliant light flying in from beyond the sky; they were flying toward different regions of this planet!
Meanwhile!
The familiar Skynet System notification barrage appeared in the firmament once again!
It hung high up there just like when it first arrived, allowing countless people on this planet to see it clearly and distinctly!
【War Notification!】
【The civilizations (Kanluo Civilization, Azure Star) that know each other's coordinates are about to start a war in 24 hours!】
【The following is the essential information for the civilization war, please read it carefully, Azure Star!】
【One: Ten meteors composed of Skynet System energy will fall in different regions of the planet in 10 minutes.】
【They will not cause any damage to the planet's surface, only open space jump gates to the Kanluo Planet.】
【Two: The space jump gates are interconnected.】
【Azure Star can reach the Kanluo Planet through the space jump gates, and the Kanluo Planet can also reach the Azure Star through the space jump gates.】
【Three: The duration of the civilization war is 99 days.】
【If the civilization war has not ended after 99 days, the system will automatically select the civilization with the greatest advantage as the winner of the war.】
【Four: The winning side of the war will obtain everything from the losing side!】
【Five: The losing side of the war will be branded with the exclusive slave mark of the winning side, becoming a part of the resources plundered by the winning side.】
【Those branded with the slave mark cannot resist the master's orders in any way!】
【Warm reminder: The universe is inherently a dark forest of survival of the fittest; there has never been a possibility of peaceful coexistence between the hunters and the prey located in the jungle. Eat it, evolve, and become stronger!】
Up to this point.
The content regarding the civilization war from the Skynet System ended.
Apart from the countdown still ticking away on the dome, there were those ten meteors that fell in different regions of the Azure Star, turning into space jump gates leading to the Kanluo Civilization that had not yet opened.
"The war is about to begin."
After finishing reading the civilization war notification content, Su Qiu withdrew his gaze, pulled up the strategy panel, and prepared to make the final preparations before the war began!
