Era of the transmigrating earth-Chapter 2113: The World War We Started

That’s right, there’s no need to keep arguing now, as both sides have reached equal power. The opponents are still a loose coalition, while we are a consolidated force. Why not go to war?

And as the war unfolds, my influence will grow, and the points I earn will also increase.

These points can be converted into new Elemental Lords. On our side, the bigger we get, the stronger we become. The longer we delay, the greater the disparity between our strength and theirs will be.

"What if the opponent launches a comprehensive attack? We don’t have enough manpower; it could be very troublesome."

Du You said nonchalantly, "If they really adopt such a full-blown strategy, we don’t need to be afraid. At worst, I’ll release the Bone Dragon squad to directly kill a few Elemental Lords."

Lin Yucha and Lin Yushi immediately understood Du You’s intention. By showing these fearless Elemental Lords that they can indeed be killed, the Elemental Lords would become more cautious and less arrogant.

They would band together instead of dispersing. It might provoke their fear and lead to an all-out attack, but at least we can suppress that full-scale attack strategy.

Besides, even if they gather into a group, Du You isn’t afraid. Our powers are not that different, after all.

At worst, we can back off and use the Elemental Pool and Elemental Tower to fight them. Even if we suffer significant losses, we can seal some of them, and I believe they wouldn’t dare to act recklessly.

Thus, the diplomatic department immediately changed its attitude. The next day, Du You’s diplomatic team left.

"What, they left? Damn it, what do they mean by this? Do they look down on us?"

"Your Majesty, they might have already achieved their goals and were just stalling for time. Now they suddenly say our conditions aren’t good and don’t even want to negotiate further. There might be something..."

As ordinary people, we have more flexible minds than those Element Creatures.

But the ones in control of the country are Element Creatures, and the elite among them, Elemental Lords.

They wouldn’t be thinking about such things. The king was immediately furious. "Damn bastards, how dare they toy with us? Inform the other empires to start the attack, and make them realize what they’ve done."

Indeed, the king was furious and didn’t care about any subtleties. They are advocates of direct attacks. Coincidentally, Du You also advocates for this. They’ve existed for so long because I now have the time. How could I not play a bit with so much time on my hands?

Now, my army development game has reached a new stage, and Du You sees no need to continue playing along with them.

At the border, a battle immediately broke out. The strategy Du You initially feared, a full-blown approach, was not implemented. Perhaps the opponents were also worried that Du You would focus his strength and seal some of their Elemental Lords first.

In this kind of large-scale battle, Elemental Lords also need to stick together. Being alone is extremely dangerous.

And as losses mount, the gap between the two sides naturally widens.

These are things to pay attention to in empire wars, whereas kingdom wars don’t require as much concern.

Du You also deployed his Elemental Lords, confronting the opponent at the border. Occasionally, battles would break out, but neither side could overpower the other, resulting in a stalemate.

However, the ordinary troops were vividly engaged in attacks and defenses, fighting fiercely.

During the war, people occasionally broke through their current realms, and perhaps new Elemental Lords might even emerge during the conflict. Unexpectedly, the opponent was not going all out.

Well, after all, this time, it’s against four empires. Even if at the Elemental Lord level, winning would mean less damage to one’s own nation, but they didn’t think they could confront four empires.

Four empires, each deploying some forces, would be enough to make anyone uncomfortable.

Initially, they only wanted to apply pressure, so not many were sent out, being stopped was reasonable.

They originally thought they could continue negotiating with Du You using this opportunity, but unfortunately, Du You seemed completely unaware of this affair and merely used military force to block them. Simultaneously resisting four nations, how arrogant.

"Does he really think he can withstand all of us? Continue the pressure."

Several kings were quietly livid, but they were unaware that this was precisely Du You’s objective.

One empire against four, it’s practically a world war. Because in this world, there are currently only five empires. Humans haven’t conquered the entire world, but they occupy nearly half of it.

Moreover, this territory is at the central position. Saying humans are the rulers of this world isn’t incorrect.

The surrounding wild Elemental Lords don’t know what’s driving humans crazy these days, constantly engaged in warfare. They are watching but dare not approach; the commotion is simply too great.

Constantly dozens of Elemental Lords are in chaotic battles; such power isn’t something they can withstand.

Thus, these Elemental Lords either hide themselves or secretly retreat. They’ve done this many times before. The rapid growth of human power leaves the Elemental Lords feeling helpless.

It’s a pity they can’t possibly unite, or else there would be no role for humans at all.

With the outbreak of the world war, the influence was top-down, and more and more troops were being committed to the conflict.

To protect themselves, places also began organizing local powerful figures into armies or militias. In some strong areas, they could even form teams composed of Element Creatures.

Among them were Element Creatures cultivated by humans themselves and directly controlled wild Element Creatures.

Perhaps everyone’s lack of experience with warfare led to straightforward encounters at the start. Occasionally, someone would come up with a tactic that would produce significant effects. These tactics quickly spread through the war.

Everyone learned from each other, thought on their feet, and developed new tactics in response to opponents. One must admit, the art of war’s development is incredibly fast, and Du You has made a huge contribution to this world.

Without this large-scale war that affected so many, it’s unknown how long it would have taken for world warfare to develop to this stage.

Moreover, the pressure from the surrounding countries has also been increasing. Eventually, they even dragged in small countries. Although weak, even small countries have Elemental Lords.
