Chapter 858 – Three Heads of Morocco

The Mediterranean Squadron’s sudden cannon siege was like a bolt of lightning during the night, totally breaking the peace and quiet of Rabat.

Just as the Mediterranean Squadron fired the first cannon, a System Notification awakened Morocco.

“System Notification: China Region Lord Qiyue Wuyi has started a country war, Morocco enters country war mode. Imperial City Rabat has been attacked, entering level 1 state of alert.”

…

In contrast to their attack on Singapore, the expedition army of Great Xia Dynasty came right for the imperial city this time. Hence, Rabat was already at the highest state of emergency from the start.

Right at the start, this country war was destined to be a close quarter battle.

Victory could be decided in an instant.

“System Notification: Morocco enters country war mode, based on country war rules, imperial city and territory teleportation formations are cut off. Players are unable to revive when they die.”

…

When the notification sounded out, all the Moroccan players were astonished regardless of their current location, be it the imperial city, Satellite City, or far away.

“Country war, are you kidding?”

“It’s not April Fools’ Day!”

Some people asked, “What’s happening?”

Of course, no one was sure, and even those players in Rabat only heard the sounds of cannon fire on their city walls. They did not know that the famous Great Xia Dynasty Mediterranean Squadron had arrived.

This country war was just too sudden.

“Quick! Return to the imperial city!”

After a short while of being stunned, the smart players reacted and thought to immediately return to the imperial city.

Players were no longer as oblivious to country wars like Singapore. Based on the rules, the moment the imperial city fell, the country war would be over.

And the moment the country war was over, all the Moroccan players, whether they be it dead or alive, would start from zero on an unknown land.

Now, it was already the middle of the 4th year of Gaia and starting from scratch was just too high a price to pay.

Hence, to the Moroccan player, they had to keep the imperial city regardless of the price. All of a sudden, without anyone needing to give orders, the entire Morocco acted.

The guilds in Rabat were the first to react, and close to a hundred guilds gathered their members. With the help of the higher ups, all the combat occupation players were gathered and ready to head onto the battlefield.

The Satellite City players were not stunned for long, and they quickly teleported back to the imperial city. More of them were still in the underground world exploring and needed people to be sent to inform them.

The entire Satellite City got busy.

As for those outside the imperial city, they could not teleport back and could only rush to the other three player territories and teleport to Casa Blanca from there.

All this happened in a short two hours. At a moment of life and death, the Moroccans did so well, it was really commendable.

The lacking part was that the three Lords of Morocco were not in Morocco.

This was a catastrophe.

…

5th month, 19th day, Atlantis City.

Atlantis City was surrounded by water like an ocean castle. When the sun rose up, it first shone on the curved roof of the palace.

The roof was bathed in golden light. Along with the golden luster from the waters that flowed within the circles, it was like a paradise.

Atlantis City standing in the middle of the Mediterranean Ocean was like an eye-catching pearl. However, compared to before, the city was bustling with even more excitement.

During this period of time, after Kalia’s invitation, more and more players gathered here to discuss how to search for the lost Atlantis Civilization and find more of their technology.

The sky was just bright and the Lords who came here had already gotten up. In pairs or threes, they walked around the old buildings or were at the river enjoying the scenery.

The three Lords of Morocco were also in Atlantis. They were originally gathered in a garden and were discussing some problems since they had some time.

Since they reached Atlantis, the three of them obviously needed to unite.

Breathing the fresh morning air and enjoying the atmosphere, the three of them were engrossed in their conversation. The sudden System Notification stunned all of them.

“This… this…”

The three of them exchanged glances with one another, and their faces ashen white. The sudden strike was one that they could not recover from. On such a warm morning, the three of them all sneezed.

After calming down, the three of them asked, “What should we do now?”

“What can we do? Write letters to ask our troops to act.” The one who spoke was Agadier Lord Andre, the oldest member of the three and the first to calm down.

Since the country war was unavoidable, they could only fight.

Casa Blanca Lord Caroline nodded and agreed, “That’s right. Due to the rules of the country war, teleport to Casa Blanca first. I’ll open the teleportation permissions to you two.”

Before the country war, the three territories were not allies, so their teleportation formations were not linked to one another’s.

Andre and the other Lord, the Lord of Tangier, Ranier, did not know what to think when they heard that. They simply nodded.

At the brink of life and death, their small conflicts were pointless.

The three of them quickly formed an alliance and opened the teleportation formation.

Andre wrote his letter while saying, “This time, we must act together.”

Caroline and Rainer nodded.

Whilst the three of them were discussing matters, they were unaware of Kalia looking at them. Obviously, Kalia knew that this would happen today.

Since entering Atlantis, the three Lords of Morocco had never escaped her field of vision.

Seeing that, Kalia summoned her trusted servant and gave an instruction. When he heard that, his eyes tensed up. He did not dare ask anymore, turning around to go and complete the task.

The three Lords in the garden wrote their letters at their fastest speed. The first one was to give the rights to the army to their generals, and the second letter was to spread the results of their emergency meeting. After they were done, they asked someone to send the letters.

What they did not know was that an Atlantis guard would stop the messenger. The three letters were naturally not sent out, and it was like they never existed.

The entire matter was watertight; Andre and the others did not notice anything.

…

After sending out the letters, the three Lords became relatively calmer.

Caroline asked, “What should we do now? Immediately go back?”

During a country war, not personally rushing back was worrying for Caroline. As the only female Lord in Morocco, she did not have much ambition, and she just loved her territory.

Casa Blanca in the game was even more beautiful than in real life; it was a true garden city. Not only did the Moroccan players love it, but even the other players in the Mediterranean came over as well.

Over 200 thousand causal players lived in Casa Blanca. Tourism also became one of its biggest income sources.

Who knew that Andre would resolutely shake his head and say, “We can’t go back.”

“Why? Are you afraid of dying?”

Caroline did not say anything, and it was clear that the young Rainier was unhappy.

Andre did not care as he obviously would not bother about such a kid. He patiently explained, “Even if we go now, it will take four to five days to return.”

“No matter how long it takes, let’s go back first.” Rainier said.

Andre shook his head, “It is not as simple as you think. One must not forget who is attacking Morocco and who is defending the Gibraltar Straits.”

“…” Rainier did not know what to say.

That’s right, the Great Xia Dynasty was the one attacking them, and the Gibraltar Straits was locked down by them. To go back was to court death.

At this point, Rainier even thought about his navy that might have already fallen. Although Rainier was hot blooded, he was not really foolish.

Rainier was clear that in front of the Mediterranean Squadron, his navy was nothing.

Thinking of which, decisiveness appeared in Rainier’s eyes, “At most, we can commit suicide to return.”

“It’s useless.” Andre shook his head, “You forgot that during a country war, once you die, you cannot revive. If that happens, what’s the difference from staying here?”

“….”

Rainier was silent; his emotions had caused him to forget about that point.

When Caroline saw that, she asked, “Then what should we do? Just stay here and wait? Why not seek help from Kalia?”

“That’s right; the Mediterranean Squadron would not dare to stop them. If that happens, they would be the enemy of the entire Mediterranean.” Rainier agreed.

Andre did not directly oppose the suggestion. He only said, “Asking her for help is one way, but compared to rushing back right away, I think we can do better.”

“How so?”

Andre said, “Have you forgotten that the Mediterranean has so many famous Lords who are all here now? Rather than hurrying back, why don’t we persuade them to send troops to assist?”

“I think there are many here that do not want Morocco to fall into the hands of the Great Xia Dynasty.”
