Chapter 2322: Killing Intent Soaring to the Heavens
Marshal Wang has been forced to rebel!
The entire empire was suddenly swept up in a tidal wave of turmoil, and everyone learned about what happened from the flyers.
When people saw that Peter Brown, who had made such a significant contribution, had been forced to leave, their faces were filled with shock. No one expected that a marshal who had done so much for the empire would end up like this. Instantly, although they dared not openly criticize the imperial court, they were extremely disappointed in it.
Afterwards, in various places, there was a declaration of independence from the management of the imperial court.
The New Emperor never anticipated that the whole situation would undergo such a massive reversal.
The New Emperor was now in extreme regret. If he had known this would happen, he would never have gone through with the power grab!
Unfortunately, the empire fell into chaos once again after Peter Brown's departure. The local powers started to rebel again, and this time, even more fiercely. Some covert factions now dared to surface, and many factions even proposed supporting Peter Brown's rebellion, wanting to enthrone Peter Brown as the emperor.
Of course, everyone knew that some schemers were stirring things up behind the scenes, but now Peter Brown also had that power.
"Your Majesty, rebellions are breaking out all over the place again!"
"Your Majesty, several princes who were nearly extinguished are re-emerging, and their forces are growing fast."
"Your Majesty, the ordinary people harbor resentment over forcing Peter Brown away."
Each minister looked distressed, and they never thought things would escalate to this point.
Bring Peter Brown back again?
This sentiment quickly gained the upper hand, and many ministers proposed to recall Peter Brown.
However, everyone knew that Peter Brown would never come back again.
"Report, the Southern Plateau Kingdom has sent troops and has already broken through several large cities at the frontier, advancing into our heartland."
An alarming piece of news arrived.
The Plateau Kingdom?
Everyone knew it was a powerful nation, always being a significant threat to the Vastsea Nation's power. Now that it invaded, it was indeed a catastrophe for the Vastsea Nation.
"Report, the West Flame Kingdom has launched a fierce attack, and the frontier destroyed our army, capturing many large cities. Requesting reinforcements."
Another alarming piece of news arrived.
Suddenly, the whole imperial court was in utter silence.
"Report, the Eastern Sea Tribe Empire has attacked our country, occupying several coastal cities."
One report after another arrived, and the entire imperial court was already in a storm, with everyone discovering for the first time how fragile the empire was.
What to do?
The New Emperor sat on the imperial throne, shivering all over. For the first time, he realized how helpless he was. Initially, he thought that with the power to quell the rebellion, he could revitalize the entire empire. It was precisely because of having such confidence that he dared to deal with Peter Brown.
Indeed, Peter Brown had been driven away, but with his departure, the whole empire became chaotic, with internal rebellions and invasions from various empires.
Now he really didn't know what to do.
"If only Peter Brown were still here!"
The New Emperor thought of the benefits of Peter Brown for the first time.
While the Vastsea Nation was in chaos, Peter Brown also received intelligence on the rebellions in various places.
Reading the contents of those reports, a sneer appeared on Peter Brown's lips.
The New Emperor really thought everything was achieved through his prestige alone, truly a joke. Without my help, he was nothing.
Peter Brown had actually been waiting all along for the events from other countries, and they finally came.
Peter Brown knew that his true confrontation with those contenders of killing energy had just begun.
As he reached the Duke position, the Elixir Sea had opened up, though he didn't dare to break through that realm, yet he had no fear of those few individuals in terms of combat power.
Of course, according to the rules' requirements, Peter Brown guessed that the armies each held should be used for combat, with the person achieving ultimate victory naturally obtaining the power granted by the rules.
The great war was about to begin!
Peter Brown would not fight for the Vastsea Nation. For him, he was now fighting to contend for the power of rules. Those people were certainly not ordinary; they must have many tricks, so he also prepared his army for the battle.
When Peter Brown returned to the Northern Region, the armies in the North instantly fell back into his hands.
The generals sent by the New Emperor had long been made to consume medicine, naturally becoming Peter Brown's subordinates.
After the Northern Region was reclaimed, Peter Brown guided the local armies to become independent, and those armies, each occupying a place, became Peter Brown's various local forces.
Of course, Peter Brown knew about his own matters. Now he had to go to war with those strong countries, so he had to expedite the development of his military forces.
A large amount of medicinal materials was sent to Ling Distant City, and here, the one thing Peter Brown did every day was command some Genetic Soldiers to refine talismans. Because the Elixir Sea was open, naturally the talisman-making equipment stored in the Elixir Sea could be taken out, and after putting in large amounts of talisman-making materials, one talisman after another was made.
After crafting the talismans, Peter Brown quickly equipped them into the army.
Now Peter Brown again had two million elite Genetic Soldiers. With this army, Peter Brown was not at all worried about being unable to match the armies of those few countries.
Of course, Peter Brown was also continuously making medicine pills, and any prisoner would rapidly become part of his own power.
The two million troops were constantly practicing the War Formation Tactics.
One message after another came from various places, and with these messages' arrival, Peter Brown finally understood the method of acquiring killing energy.
Everyone's army was mobilizing, and as long as one victory was achieved, a portion of the opponent's killing energy would be naturally stripped away.
Peter Brown even saw his own killing energy sometimes increase and sometimes decrease.
Seeing this situation, Peter Brown knew that he absolutely could not wait any longer.
If he did not go to war soon, his killing energy would be acquired by the invading powers.
"Order the troops to prepare for battle!"
With a command from Peter Brown, the troops were about to set out.
Just as Peter Brown was about to depart, Melody Carter arrived.
Looking at Peter Brown, Melody Carter said, "Peter, under what pretext are you going to war now?"
Peter Brown was also taken aback, as he had only been thinking about going to war and hadn't really considered such matters.
After thinking for a moment, Peter Brown replied, "I will no longer support the Vastsea Nation, nor do I wish to help its descendants!"
Melody Carter said, "Since that's the case, then proclaim yourself king!"
Peter Brown looked at Melody Carter, surprised that she had such a significant transformation, actually suggesting he proclaim himself king.
