Chapter 453: Cruelty Of War

Ten years later, the second wave of the Void Battlefield ensued.

With even more cities getting sucked in, the people of the Etherium Realm finally felt the seriousness of the war.

If this continued every ten years, the civilization in the Etherium Realm would be wiped out in just over a thousand years.

Fortunately, knowing that the people getting sucked into the Void Battlefield would not die but instead go to war, they were not too desperate.

To cope with any situation and hold their fate in their own hands, they just needed to be stronger.

Meanwhile, while the people were passionately training themselves, Maximus looked at the situation in the Void Battlefield.

With the appearance of another hundred million cities, the Void Battlefield doubled in size.

This time, with the readiness of the people of the Etherium Realm, the Blood Ragnarok Realm didn't have the chance to plan an ambush.

Soon after months of evacuation, Maximus looked at the growing Etherium base and frowned.

Like the last time, the people in the Etherium Realm evacuated and joined in the center.

However, to Maximus' surprise, the people of the Blood Ragnarok Realm did the same.

Looking at the power readings of the micro-bot surveillance, the Ragnarok Realm crushed them in the ratio of elites, 1 to 4.

If the Blood Ragnarok Realm attacked now, the Etherium Realm would be at a severe disadvantage.

"Waiting for more reinforcements?" Maximus concluded.

Using the Seal of Truth, he roughly guessed the leaders of the Blood Ragnarok Realm's plan: to crush them with numbers, to make them despair, and to make the subsequent war to their advantage in the later stages.

"However, it's not my turn in the war after all..." Maximus held back.

Maximus had already overreached by helping the people of the Etherium Realm in the first wave of the war, exposing the appearance of the clones.

If Maximus always helped whenever there was an emergency, the future of Etherium Realm would be doomed.

This war is only the beginning.

Maximus' goal is for the Etherium Realm to reach tier 12 Dimension or possibly even higher.

The wars they would face would only be more brutal and unforgiving.

If Maximus didn't cultivate the people of the Etherium Realm now, then when would he?

Continuing to let his clone stay dormant, the leaders of the Etherium outpost base went into a meeting.

Although they didn't know the plan of the Blood Ragnarok Realm, they still knew they were crushed in terms of power.

"Tactics, we can only win by tactics..."

"Gather the army; we'll fight a guerrilla war!"

Unlike the Etherium Realm, which is disciplined and trained to evacuate the first instant they were transported to the Void Battlefield.

The first thought of the people from the Blood Ragnarok Realm was to attack.

Only when subordinates of the Crimson Ragnarok reminded them did they begin to evacuate and join the rest.

Because of this, while the Etherium Realm had already evacuated, the people from the Blood Ragnarok Realm were only halfway through, giving them a chance for an ambush.

"A change wouldn't happen without blood and sacrifice. This is all for the better future..."

Considering the future of the Etherium Realm, Maximus held back.

"However, I promised to resurrect you in the future..." Maximus vowed.

These people's will and bits of their origin were merged into his crystallized amalgamation of will.

Once Maximus had enough power and ability, he could resurrect them as if their deaths never happened.

As the brave warrior who fought for his goal, he couldn't let them down.

With such a cruel war, both sides ceased fighting, licking their wounds, and waiting for another wave of war.

Soon another ten years passed, and the fourth wave of the Void Battlefield ensued.

This time, the Etherium Realm and Blood Ragnarok Realm had a tacit understanding.

Evacuating their people to their bases, they continued to be on ceasefire as if waiting for something.

With another ten years passing, the fifth wave of the Void Battlefield ensued.

Just when both sides wanted to cease the war and continue licking their wounds, a shocking twist happened in the Void Battlefield.

"What happened?!"

"Does this Void Battlefield want to kill us all?!"

The leaders of the Etherium Realm went ballistic seeing the change in the Void Battlefield.

First, all their resources from storage items and storage facilities, as long as they were not processed in any way to be made into buildings, weapons, potions, talismans, cooked food, etc., disappeared.

All their unused resources were merged into the Void battlefield.

In the originally desolate plane, elixirs, minerals, rare animals, and strange materials were all over the place, looking like a paradise made of high-tier resources.

Such a dazzling battlefield, they finally knew how many resources the two sides had brought into the battlefield.

The unified resources in their storage facilities were only one hundredth in comparison.

"No, this should be amplified by the rules. There is no way our people could hide so many resources from our eyes."

"It's also impossible for the Blood Ragnarok Realm to have a hundred times our resources. If so, they would have already crushed us years ago."

"This is not important... the change in the Void Battlefield was only a precursor for us to get out..."

Hearing this, solemnity replaced their expressions.

The most significant change in the battlefield is the battle incentive.

The winner takes it all.

This was embodied by the Void Battlefield in the literal sense.

For every opponent of the opposite dimension one killed, their strength, talent, physique, comprehension, all that they possessed would be absorbed by the winner.

According to the announcement from the dimensional war panel, even the limit that this battlefield promulgated could be broken with enough lives.

"This is making us kill each other to the last of our breath..."
