MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter
Chapter 1055 - Chapter 1055 Chapter 1055 The Second Declaration of War

Chapter 1055: Chapter 1055: The Second Declaration of War Chapter 1055: Chapter 1055: The Second Declaration of War War mode is not suitable for just anyone; only two types of players are cut out for it.

One type is the wealthy tycoons. If their army is wiped out, they can just spend more money to buy more troops, always managing to replenish their forces with corresponding types of soldiers, which is different from recruiting followers from professional mentors.

The soldiers recruited from wild species can be bought and sold. As long as you have the money and there are people selling, you can always acquire powerful species or channels.

In his previous life, Li Yao had seen too many tycoons with subpar personal skills who then turned to play in war mode.

On the war mode map, players’ occupied strongholds can even establish their own personal strongholds and towns. Of course, in war mode, there is no such thing as declaring war or not. Out of nowhere, other monsters or players might attack; it’s the most dangerous place.

To Li Yao’s knowledge, there are countless maps in true mode. Countless tycoons who didn’t want to play in adventure mode or with guilds chose war mode, but the vast majority returned defeated, with only a handful establishing powerful towns.

The second type comprises those who are extremely smart and have a strong will for war. Relying on endless analysis to identify targets, they use cunning tactics to keep winning and become stronger through battles. However, such people are formed over time, even if they existed from the start, they honed their skills through continuous failures.

The gameplay in The Ancient God World is diverse; adventure mode is just a common way, but with the opening of war mode, adventure and war have become the two most mainstream modes.

Of course, the two modes are interconnected; you can play both simultaneously, but most people prioritize one over the other since human energy is limited.

Li Yao sat at the top of the Lord’s mansion, looking down at the crowd below as more and more Starfire players returned to base.

Newly acquired soldier players have a privilege, which is that they can use Hearthstone to return along with their followers. Later, the followers also obtain a corresponding Hearthstone, but this Hearthstone must be from a personal residence, as only players can bind to an inn’s Hearthstone.

Li Yao saw various types of soldiers; he saw an elite force, as Starfire had distributed benefits and rewards from the first two battles, so everyone was generally very confident, added to other savings of Starfire members, they basically had savings of dozens of Gold Coins.

The especially wealthy had over hundreds, like the veterans of Starfire.

But they are all elites who can recruit up to ten followers of elite level, and the total number of other ranks typically doesn’t exceed twenty.

Most of the Starfire players had about ten followers trailing behind them, with a few having as many as a dozen or twenty, and the military strength of Starfire had inflated more than tenfold.

“Big brother, hee hee, look at the followers I’ve recruited; there are bosses, too.” Stay Mengtongtong entered the Lord’s mansion with dozens of people.

Li Yao looked and saw that the Totem Sahs recruited by Tongtong were all of the fifth order, mostly Silver Elites, not exceeding fifty in number, but there were actually two bosses among them.

“Your mentor is cheating.” Guardian Angel said with envy, with over thirty followers behind him, all Barrier Priests in Armor holding large shields–his followers were all elites, with only four or five Silver Elites and no bosses at all.

“Humph, my mentor dotes on me, none of your business. Recruiting them cost me one Gold Coin in total, and I don’t have to pay them military salaries. My mentor helped me cover it because he’s afraid I couldn’t afford to keep them,” Tongtong said with pride in her eyes.

“The disparity between people is really…” Fruit Knight sighed, with mostly elite-level Holy Teaching Army Knights behind her and a few Silver Elites: “I nearly went broke for these followers; seems like I need to find new sources of income.”

The others who had arrived in succession all nodded. Managing several dozen people was somewhat overwhelming for them, of course, being veterans of Starfire, they could afford it, but they still needed to develop their personal strength, which is also an expense.

Li Yao knew that in the future, the currency for war and adventure would be separate, of course, they would still be convertible with each other.

Li Yao glanced over and saw that behind Sister Li was a clean sweep of frost-based Ice Masters, while behind Qin Feng Yi was a clean sweep of necromancers in black robes; Unparalleled Enchantress and Shadow Dance Berserk had a clean sweep of thief assassins behind them, of course, the quality couldn’t compare to Tongtong’s.

“Arrange all these followers in front of the Lord’s mansion and also schedule their patrolling times,” Li Yao said.

The Lord’s mansion was now a large town-level residence, although not yet a castle, it was almost there. There were many rooms, and now Li Yao and the elders were all at the Lord’s mansion, but most of them were vacant.

“Then let’s arrange the other members in the military barracks. I’m planning to establish new barracks at both bases to accommodate them,” Sister Li said.

“Just handle these things as you see fit,” Li Yao didn’t concern himself with the specifics.

Sister Li nodded her head, and Qin Feng Yi said, “Xiao Ze and HY have also arrived. Now that suddenly there are so many soldiers, the enemy must be numerous too. If we continue fighting, could it be dangerous?”

Li Yao shook his head, “We’re not familiar with the situation, and neither is the enemy. Having followers is just what we need right now. We kill them now, and let them feel the pain to their core.”

Xiao Ze and HY, who had just entered, heard what Li Yao said and looked at each other with a bitter smile. Right now, Prosperous Era was probably the most troubled.

Li Yao just happened to go to war before the follower missions were released. As a result, thirty thousand people turned the Prosperous Age Base upside down. If in a few hours, Prosperous Era had its followers, then Starfire would be facing a force of two million soldiers, and the outcome of the battle would then be uncertain. The people of Prosperous Era are probably vomiting blood by now.

“Chairman Liaoyuan must have recruited followers by now, right? How about giving us a first look?” HY said.

Li Yao chuckled, “The battle is about to begin, and you’ll see then.”

Enchantress said, “The warships will all be docking in half an hour, and most of the members are back as well.”

Li Yao nodded, “Then let’s not wait. Let the rest of them guard the base, now start loading the artillery shells, and arrange for them to board the ships.”

“Okay,” Unparalleled Enchantress said and began to organize.

Aside from the cargo ships, Starfire had over a hundred warships suitable for combat, including more than fifty medium warships, enough to carry all of Starfire’s combat units without issue. Moreover, Starfire had mobilized five hundred thousand people including followers this time.

At the same time, the System notification of Starfire declaring war on the Berserker Guild caught everyone by surprise.

Then Xiao Ze went live, broadcasting Starfire’s imposing fleet departing, stunning all the viewers.

Especially the two demon-powered battleships, although people didn’t know their attributes, the fact that the battleships were equipped with armor showed how formidable they were.

A large number of viewers, even many who were planning to take their followers to clear the backyards of the Great Cathedrals, went live. This was the first battle since acquiring followers.

It could be said that the launch of the Follower System inflated the strength of all guilds and players.

However, a huge portion of viewers drooled over Starfire’s luxurious lineup of followers. Starfire’s benefits were unmatched even by the super guilds, let alone the average player from ordinary guilds. Even members of top-tier guilds wouldn’t be able to recruit such a luxurious array of followers like Starfire did–they just didn’t have the financial power…
