1: Chapter 1: The Mobile City Deployed!

[Congratulations everyone. When you see this message, it means all of humanity has officially entered the Era of Global Lords and stepped into the Battlefield of Myriad Races!]

[All of humanity will receive a blessing of collective healing. Those with serious illnesses, cancer patients, people in vegetative states, the blind, the deaf, and all other humans will recover immediately and become normal people.]

[All of humanity will receive infinite lifespans (though you can still be killed).]

[The elderly and those nearing the end of their natural lifespans will automatically become 30 years younger.]

[Couples and relatives may voluntarily form joint territories or clan territories.]

[For children under the age of 14, territory management rights will be entrusted to parents or relatives until they reach 14, at which point they will automatically gain management rights.]

[Pets kept at home may follow their Lords and be teleported into your territories.]

[In the early stages of entering the Battlefield of Myriad Races, Earth's humanity will undergo a period of civil war. In the form of nations or alliances, winners will be decided in a War of Nations. The winning nations will lead all of humanity into the Battlefield of Myriad Races.]

As these dense lines of information popped up on his phone, Xu Xuan, a student in Class 2 of the Third Year of high school in Guangnan City, almost laughed out loud.

"What kind of prank text is this? It sounds so real. I read plenty of 'Global' genre novels, but how could a Battlefield of Myriad Races exist in reality?"

As Xu Xuan said this with a smile, his deskmate and others also began picking up their phones one after another.

Only then did Xu Xuan realize that every student in the classroom, including the homeroom teacher on the podium, was looking at their phone.

Wait?!

Everyone seems to be looking at this message. Could this whole 'global entry into the War of Nations to prepare for the Battlefield of Myriad Races' thing be real!?

Huh?

Before Xu Xuan could react, a classmate with an intellectual disability suddenly stood up: "My... my head seems so much clearer?"

Another student from the basketball club immediately jumped up from his seat.

"The leg I injured playing ball yesterday... it's actually healed?"

"Is this Era of Global Lords for real?"

As everyone discussed fervently, Xu Xuan, still sitting in his seat, finally realized the gravity of the situation.

The plot of a novel was actually manifesting in reality!?

Just as a shocked expression appeared on his face, the students around him began to vanish into light, one by one.

Witnessing this sudden scene, some screamed in fear, some spread their arms to embrace the future with excitement, and others sat dazed in their seats, at a loss.

Ultimately, everyone disappeared from the classroom one by one, leaving only Xu Xuan behind, looking at the empty room.

"They... they're all gone? Why am I still here?"

The once noisy campus instantly fell into a deathly silence.

With a face full of bewilderment, Xu Xuan walked out of the classroom and into the hallway.

He found the entire corridor terrifyingly quiet, to the point where he could clearly hear his own breathing.

Looking outside, it seemed as if the humans of the entire world had vanished.

In the sky, unmanned planes began to lose control and plummet.

On the streets, vehicles without drivers crashed aimlessly.

Xu Xuan stood there alone, staring blankly at it all, reminded of scenes from 'Life After People'.

Why...

Why was everyone else summoned away while he remained?

Just as Xu Xuan was lost in confusion, a dialog box popped up before his eyes.

[A small accident has occurred in the system. It has been detected that you are the only human remaining on Earth.]

[Detected that you are a citizen of Great Xia, Xu Xuan.]

[Currently, the Great Xia region is full and has no vacant territories. The system has matched you to the Japanese region.]

"What the hell?! Is the system crazy!"

One must understand that in this Global Lord, War of Nations scenario...

The world's population would be assigned to their respective national camps.

Nations with large populations naturally wouldn't ally with others.

Small nations, according to the rules, would be arranged into alliances to counter the high-population countries.

The system had placed him in the birthplace of the japanese people—wasn't that just sending him to his death?

How was he supposed to play?

Start with a single stick and play guerrilla warfare against the Japanese Lords? Be a nomadic Lord?

The thought of becoming a Lord and spawning in that tiny island region, surrounded by a pack of wolves, made Xu Xuan want to curse.

However, at that moment, another line of text appeared from the system.

[Considering your special circumstances, as compensation, you may draw a unique God-grade Territory Trait!]

[Please draw your God-grade Territory Trait.]

Seeing this compensation, Xu Xuan felt slightly better.

Since it was a God-grade compensation, it had to be a special territory trait for him to survive in the Japanese region.

Thinking this, Xu Xuan pressed the draw button.

[Congratulations, you have drawn the God-grade Territory Trait (Global Unique) — Mobile City!]

Eh?

Seeing this trait, Xu Xuan was first stunned, then broke into an expression of wild joy.

Mobile City?!

You can play it like that?

In that moment of excitement, a white light flashed before Xu Xuan's eyes. Accompanied by a bout of dizziness, he felt his body fly away as if his soul had left its shell.

Once the scenery before him shifted from distorted to clear, Xu Xuan finally regained his senses and took in the situation.

Before him was a primitive village, with a spring bubbling in the center.

There were men and women in the village; the men were bare-chested, while the women used leaves and animal skins to cover themselves.

They looked like a group of uncivilized savages. Upon seeing Xu Xuan, they howled with excitement and knelt down, shouting.

"Chief!"

"The Chief has arrived!"

Wait?

Where was the Mobile City the system promised?

As Xu Xuan looked around, he realized he was indeed standing on top of the Mobile City.

This Mobile City was a circular island. Under a mysterious power, it floated in mid-air, perhaps less than 10 meters from the ground.

A virtual screen soon popped up before Xu Xuan.

[Territory: Floating Island.]

[Civilization Level: Stone Age.]

[Island Scale: 100 meters in diameter (Scale expands according to civilization progress).]

[Population: 100.]

This circular Floating Island was about the size of a football field. The primitive villagers were all squeezed into cramped thatched huts.

Or they simply used the ground as a bed and the sky as a blanket, sleeping directly on the grass.

Seeing this, Xu Xuan's face darkened.

His territory's advantage was obvious: it could move anywhere, and being in the air gave him a height advantage from the start.

The downside was... there were no resources on the Floating Island, and very little land, barely enough for the subjects to live on.

And the most critical point: his territory's location... was surrounded entirely by Japanese Lords!!

Standing on high ground, Xu Xuan looked around. He could already see cooking smoke a few kilometers away; other Lord tribes existed!

Just then, a female savage with disheveled hair and wearing animal skins stepped forward.

"Chief, the Floating Island Tribe only has enough food for 7 days. Shall we begin hunting or gathering wild fruits?"

Xu Xuan took a deep breath: "No. Tell all tribe members to prepare for battle!"
