Chapter 872 – African Continent, the Wolf Is Here

Just as Ouyang Shuo was deep in thought, a World Notification sounded out.

“World Notification: Congratulations China region player Qiyue Wuyi for leading his troops to attack Morocco. His name spreads far and wide, awarded 100 thousand merit points and 200 thousand reputation points, congratulations player!”

…

During the attack on Morocco, Ouyang Shuo had obtained 70 thousand merit points on the battlefield. Along with this 100 thousand, his overall merit points had hit 1.9 million.

He was only 100 thousand away from the next duke class, and he would probably achieve it in the next battle map. The following Battle of Fei River was Ouyang Shuo’s chance to promote.

…

“World Notification: Congratulations China region player Qiyue Wuyi for leading troops to attack Morocco, becoming the 2nd Lord to destroy a country, awarded one special reward, congratulations player!”

…

Compared to the hidden building he received when he wiped out Singapore, the reward for the second time was a grade lower. Ouyang Shuo was thinking whether or not he would receive a reward for the third time too.

“Hmm, that seems possible.”

The moment the notifications ended, a System Notification sounded out in his ear.

“System Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi for obtaining a special reward, will you obtain it now?”

“Yes!”

“System Notification: Drawing random special reward.”

“System Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi for obtaining a special reward, you can pay one million to fully restore Rabat, will you do that?”

Ouyang Shuo was delighted. He was getting whatever he wished for.

The imperial city Rabat was totally engulfed in a sea of flames. Even if Ouyang Shuo wanted to extinguish it, he was powerless to do so. The only thing he could do was rebuild the entire city.

However, after the system update, Gaia slowed down the construction speed. Not to mention the enormous funds needed to rebuild the city, but it would take no less than a year to finish such a task.

Now, he was able to do so with one million gold, so why would Ouyang Shuo hesitate?

“Restore!”

“System Notification: Rabat city is being restored…”

Along with the System Notification, one could see the raging flames being extinguished one by one. In a short while, there was not a single ember.

With the fire extinguished, the smoke dissipated too, revealing a scorched city that was in ruins.

At this very moment, the entire city was covered in a white light, and it was like time was reverse as the destroyed palace, houses, gardens, and other places were restored.

The miraculous part was that even the civilians who died in the fire were revived and standing amongst the buildings.

When Gaia revived these people, they would naturally attribute it to the king’s good grace.

“Thank you my king!”

The civilians stood on the streets as they kowtowed toward the east. Although Ouyang Shuo was the culprit behind the fire, everyone was safe in the end. Naturally, he became the great savior; everyone was delighted and pleased with him.

Things changes with the situation and nothing was for certain.

When Ouyang Shuo got news that all the people were revived, he felt that the one million gold spent was worth it. In the wilderness, population was the cornerstone of the territory. He was originally worried that he would lose people’s sentiment. After all, that was one of the hardest stats to earn back.

Now was great, all the problems were solved for him.

Morocco would be able to get on the right track quickly and even become stronger under the support of the dynasty.

Of course, burning the city was the worse-case scenario plan and definitely could not be used often. This time, Rabat relied on the reward to escape, but they might not be so lucky next time. Even Jia Xu did not expect the fire to actually be so big.

If Rabat was burnt to ashes, it would be a huge problem for the dynasty.

…

“World Notification: Morocco has been wiped out. All player skills, level, techniques, etc. have been reset to zero, and they will be teleported to the land of trials as punishment!”

…

Along with the report, all the players of Morocco, be it the combat occupation ones, work occupation ones, male or female etc., were teleported away.

A sweeping white light shone outside of Rabat as the millions of players who had escaped outside the city were teleported away. The vast wilderness immediately became much emptier.

On the city wall, a similar white light shone across. The valiant combat occupation players had failed, so they could only watch on as the renewed Rabat fell into the hands of the enemy.

Such a pain was one that outsiders would not be able to understand.

On the contrary, the Moroccan guards were delighted. Since they saw that their families safe, the last thorn in their hearts were removed. The last batch of them that did not surrender immediately did so.

At this point, there was no more resistance in the imperial city.

At the same time, underground world.

Dida and his group charged into the underground world and were about to reach the nest of the devil duckbeak beasts and obtain their dream treasure. That was when the notification sounded out, and their faces instantly turned ashen white as they were teleported away.

In the end, it was all for nothing.

Dida and the others were smart, but they had forgotten something: without a country, one does not have a home. If the country does not survive, what was the use of some small tricks?

…

“World Notification: China region Lord Qiyue Wuyi has won the country war. China region players obtain 10 country honor points. At the same time, China region players awarded with +1 innate talent, congratulations China region!”

…

This was the second time that Ouyang Shuo had won country honor for the China region. In the 4th year before country wars became common, the China region was already far ahead of other countries.

It was no wonder that the China region players loved the Great Xia Dynasty so much.

Although they had expected it, the China region players were still delighted when they heard the notification.

“Great Xia Dynasty, amazing!”

Players all looked toward the south and raised their thumbs.

…

The moment the notification went out, the world was naturally in an uproar.

The global players did not expect the Great Xia Dynasty to cause such big waves right after they established their country. They destroyed a country so quickly.

The Mediterranean Lords all felt their faces being slapped. To think they even said arrogant words at Atlantis that the Great Xia Dynasty was not good enough to lay foot in the Mediterranean.

Now, Morocco was instantly taken down, and the chokepoint of the Mediterranean was in their hands.

The worse-case scenario that they had thought of had already arrived.

When the Lords of Atlantis heard the System Notification, they all exchanged glances with one another. Henry was shocked, Caesar was furious, and Pedro gave a weird smile. The future Mediterranean would have hidden currents moving and would not be peaceful.

The Lords could not help but lament, “Morocco is really useless, falling in just a few days.”

The last Moroccan Lord, Andre, had been teleported away from Atlantis. If he heard those words, he probably would have vomited blood from anger.

Those words were ones that they had to take as the losers had no right to speak.

“There’s also the Spanish Invincible Squadron. Before leaving, they bragged so much, and in the end, they were forced to retreat. They did not even have a look at Morocco.”

“That’s right, the Mediterranean Squadron only used two divisions, and the Spanish Invincible Squadron still lost despite their numerical advantage. In my eyes, they have lost their place as a strong naval country.”

Under Caesar’s instructions, many people dissed Spain.

Those who knew the truth really sympathized with the Spanish. Their defeat this time was really unexpected. After all, who would have expected the Great Xia Dynasty to be so messed up; they had even made ocean mines.

If it were the Roman Squadron or the Gaul Squadron, the outcome would still be the same.

As they say, beat the dog that fell into the water.

With the Spanish Invincible Squadron badly damaged, it seemed like they were going to have to back out of the race for control of the Mediterranean. At this time, naturally no one would step out to fight for them.

When Caesar saw that, he gave out a delighted smile, “I’ve actually gained something through all of this.” He felt fortunate that he was not as rash as Casillas. If not, the Gaul Squadron would have benefited.

Thinking of this, Caesar glanced at Henry, who was expressionless. This fellow was his biggest obstacle now.

‘It seems like I’ll have to do something.’ Caesar thought in his heart, giving out a weird smile.

…

The Mediterranean Lords exclaimed while the African Lords were astonished, “The wolves are here!”

Morocco was occupied by the Great Xia Dynasty, but the African states were unsure whether this country destroying battle was an example of their strategic invasion of Africa.

In history, Africa faced the pain of colonization, so they feared it.

“No, we must understand their true intentions.”

Some African Lords were ready to send out envoys to Morocco. If they did not make things clear, they would not be able to sleep easy.

As for increasing their military, that was expected.

Morocco was considered a strong country in Africa, but it was instantly wiped out. Even if the African countries increased their troops, they would still feel uneasy.

At least to the Africans, the Great Xia Dynasty was a huge monster.

“Let’s hope they are not a pack a greedy wolves.” Some prayed as such.
