“She couldn’t have escaped, could she…”

“As expected, it’s a fake grave. The Moonstone Queen isn’t dead,” Qin Muye said as he watched the video feed of the Moonstone Queen’s tomb, where inside lay an elf skeleton. However, according to the analysis of the elements and magic power residue on the bones, it was definitely not the Moonstone Queen but merely an ordinary elf.

“We’re still doing reverse analysis, which will take some time. The space device you developed, Master, doesn’t involve much in the way of tracking capabilities,” explained the Spirit Monster at his side.

“Red Wind Lord, how dare you make a move. Aren’t you afraid…”

“Has the location of the Elf God’s Divine Country been backtracked yet?” Qin Muye asked.

“Don’t rush, take it easy. These things can’t be hurried. Even if we haven’t found it, it’s not a big deal. There’s more than one way to catch the Elf God,” Qin Muye said.

“She sure ran away fast. We’ll deal with the Moonstone Queen first, and then, we can invite the Elf God over on some trumped-up charges,” Qin Muye pondered for a moment, deciding to let the Elf God go for now.

“Dead? It’s highly unlikely since the settlement from the ‘Lord Era’ game hasn’t been announced yet.”

“Lock onto the source of the energy fluctuations and initiate a Level 2 concentrated firepower strike.”

“Disguised very well, it must be a fake death,” Qin Muye thought for a while and concluded she hadn’t died.

“Damn, this is kinda morbid,” Qin Muye noticed that the Moonstone Queen had started a desperate struggle, as masses of flesh began to regenerate amidst the barrage of gunfire, with a grotesque face continuously healing from the shrapnel wounds, while countless elemental energies swirled to form a protective line attempting to resist the gunfire.

“This is burning through a lot of resources, nearly three million in reserve magic power poured in, and almost 5% of the ammunition stockpile used. War really is all about the money,” Qin Muye observed his reserve magic power and various munitions supplies.

“Thankfully, I manufacture my own munitions and control the raw materials, but I need to stock up more.”

“Huh, there seemed to be a spatial fluctuation just now, as if someone was peering through?”

“Let’s wait a bit before opening this treasure box. The priority now is to capture the Elf God.”

[…]

[You have received a Golden Treasure Chest (Hero).]

[A magnificent…]

If there’s no settlement in half an hour… then Qin Muye might as well go for a cover strike for an hour.

The sounds of indignation were not yet fully uttered before they were drowned out by a series of explosions.

During the concentrated firepower attack, the Moonstone Queen didn’t have any chance to advance to the 7th tier, even if it were a last-minute level-up during battle… oh, a hero might manage, but Qin Muye didn’t believe the Moonstone Queen had hero potential.

After all, everyone was just getting started; it was their first time doing this.

Without much thought, he knew that he had forced out the Moonstone Queen.

Why bother with close combat in a war when you can just kill the opponent.

After about three minutes, Qin Muye noticed that the energy fluctuations of the Moonstone Queen had disappeared.

But his space lock was not ordinary, it was centered around a Super Space-Time Transmission Channel and supplemented by an Exotic Realm Lock. Even an attempt to leave would catch Qin Muye’s attention, and it would be impossible to leave quietly, unless the person was at the 7th tier. Unfortunately for them, they were only at the 6th tier.

At this point, of course, he would prioritize stockpiling weapons over food, directly robbing other races if needed. Why else would he amass so much weaponry and ammunition?

Later on, one might even get better loot since, he realized, a Golden Treasure Chest could only yield one item, unlike other chests of lesser quality that could contain multiple items.

Then, a terrifying fluctuation rose steadily. On his energy radar, it displayed a smooth transition from the 6th toward the 7th tier.

Rest assured, within the cultivation tank in his Floating City laboratory, it was absolutely safe. As long as the Floating City hadn’t been destroyed by an Ancient God, Qin Muye would never allow the Elf God to be captured by the Ancient Gods.

The protective line was useful at first, but it was soon easily torn apart as Qin Muye had plenty of experience dealing with energy methods.

Probably Mages or Archers.

Probably because the loot was of Epic quality.

Before the Elf Clan could even ask a question, they were bombarded with a massive barrage of firepower, their magic barriers too slow to activate, resulting in a chorus of wails within the Royal Court.

Soon, Qin Muye led his men straight into the heart of the Elf King’s Royal Court.

Quickly, a Spirit Monster began to track in reverse.

The moment the door opened, the scene of relentless firepower and shelling was revealed, causing whoever opened the door to immediately shrink back inside.

If the Elf King’s Royal Court is gone, it’s gone; after all, there are other Elf communities. With guidance from the Elf Deity, a new Royal Court can be rebuilt, but to be dragged into a barrage of gunfire would indeed be a death sentence.

The comer was the Elf Deity, who sensed the abnormality in the Elf King’s Royal Court and came to the rescue with intense fervor, ignoring his own injuries.

Bang~

Qin Muye opened the overall monitoring to check for spatial fluctuations. He had already locked down the entire Royal Court, making it impossible to leave through normal means. The only option was to forcefully break Qin Muye’s space lock to escape.

Qin Muye had struggled for so long just to set up an overwhelming victory. The Elf who had just spoken might have been a 6th tier Hero unit, but probably didn’t have a strong enough physique, dying on the spot.

Upon hearing this, Qin Muye didn’t blame anyone, because the Spirit Monster was right. The spatial devices he installed on the Floating City in the Different Plane were mostly defensive and movement-related, designed for escaping and preserving life, without high-level tracking capabilities.

Qin Muye suddenly detected something abnormal, “Someone come and track who that was just now.”

The person had already fled, and it was too late to chase, but as the saying goes, ‘you can run from the monk, but not from the temple.’ When he brings the Floating City for a personal visit later, he’ll ensure they come clean.

Time quickly lapsed into twenty minutes, and it seemed that the Moonstone Queen could no longer feign indifference, having not expected Qin Muye to be so ruthlessly indiscriminate in his assault.

If all else fails, he could seek out Feiyun. Having recently clashed with the Elf Deity, paying a price for a location or spatial coordinates was not an issue, and it wasn’t a big deal anyway.

As the results of the “Lord Era” were calculated, Qin Muye also breathed a sigh of relief, with all the firepower ceasing at the same moment.

With continuous concentrated fire from the level 2 firepower, the once steadily rising energy fluctuations of the adversary began to grow chaotic.

Under the relentless cries of the Moonstone Queen, the massive group of flesh was eventually torn apart and at last, evaporated by high temperatures and eliminated by the elements.

So even though he had some threads to follow, actually catching the adversary was not so easy.

He had thought it might be one of the Ancient God’s Descendants, but looking at the outcome, he couldn’t help but fall silent.

He thought, since the Garden Elf’s luck can’t be separated from the Elf Deity, he should take away everything, otherwise what to do if the Ancient God returns and it leads to death.

He didn’t plan to have someone go down and scout. As a Lord with the power of money, he could keep firing for another half an hour to see if this thing could survive.

He had the data on paper, but not actual data.

His action was sudden and without warning; how could the Elf Clan possibly be prepared for it?

It was all to ensure the best means of stockpiling supplies.

Currently, he only had level 3 firepower, with the highest level designed to confront 7th tier enemies, operating at full or even overloaded capacity. It was unclear whether it would be enough to defeat Qin Muye.

The recent standard bombardment was level 1, mostly using conventional weapons.

Otherwise, what could be done? It would be unreasonable to insist on a constant struggle.

When facing particularly difficult enemies, like the Moonstone Queen advancing towards the 7th tier, higher-level weapons and equipment must be employed.

If there’s no further activity, Qin Muye would then have no choice but to wrap up and leave.

If there was truly a hero, they would have already stormed into Qin Muye’s Floating City for a rampage, rather than being beaten until not even energy fluctuations remained.

The entire Elf King’s Royal Court had already been turned to ruins after the bombardment, and unless one was an invincible 6th tier within the same realm, it would be impossible to withstand such a massive firepower attack.

As for who was being attacked, Qin Muye couldn’t see. Amidst the chaos of various ammunition and the wild surge of energies, explosions, decay, and more, visibility for even a centimeter was a sign that his firepower coverage had been too modest.

As for the possible existence of Ancient God’s Descendants in other races, that would be dealt with later. The priority was to boost the overall luck.

The family knows its own affairs, and the Spirit Monster was sweating with urgency.
