As Qin Shilei departed from Ram City, everything that had just happened was recorded and uploaded to Tianzhu's domestic and global chat channels, subsequently causing a huge uproar.
"This is an invasion, this is hegemony, we strongly condemn King Qin An, condemn Da Xia Country!"
"According to reliable sources, King Qin An's million-strong army has entered Tianzhu, and he intends to completely enslave the people of Tianzhu."
"With foreign races invading and zombies and mutated beasts wreaking havoc internally, King Qin An, as the number one person on Blue Star, instead of striving for the future of Blue Star, invades the peace-loving Tianzhu. This act is an unforgivable sin and a crime against humanity that will go down in history for destroying human peace."
"King Qin An, please stop your atrocities immediately, or you will face economic sanctions from thousands of countries on Blue Star!"
"Our Tianzhu brothers, hold on. My beautiful country and 108 other nations are about to send a large army to support you, and we will surely kill the tyrant King Qin An within Tianzhu."
"Your Da Xia has always claimed to be a nation of benevolence and righteousness, yet you commit such evil acts of invading another country's territory. How hypocritical!"
"I dare bet that even if King Qin An's army can take Tianzhu, ninety-nine percent of them will likely die due to the threats of foreign races and zombies along the way."
"Our god Shiva, we pray you descend and save your loyal followers!"
Regarding the international condemnation, Tan Anguo immediately arranged for relevant personnel to respond.
First, the meticulously crafted "Memorial for the Departure" was posted on the Blue Star chat channel.
Next, videos of Eugene sending troops to invade New Luo City and Taylor sending troops to attack Ya City were released, with a solemn declaration that King Qin An's actions were acts of revenge!
Da Xia's survivors also engaged in heated debates with the trolls on the chat channel.
"You guys from India must have been coveting King Qin An's enlightenment tea, which is why you ignorantly launched the invasion first. Now that you've tasted defeat, are you hiding in a corner and trembling?"
"The war was initiated by you Tianzhu people first, so you deserve what you get!"
"The way of heaven is a cycle, and heaven spares no one! If you Tianzhu dared to start a war, you should have the courage to face it, instead of condemning and complaining here."
"Our Da Xia is a nation of benevolence and righteousness, but we are not weaklings who don't fight back. Those who offend our Da Xia will be punished, no matter how far they are!"
"Economic sanctions, are you kidding me? You must be an actor hired by the monkeys, right?"
"He's definitely from the beautiful country. Before the apocalypse, they always used economic sanctions to infringe upon other countries. One day, King Qin An's battle flag will surely be planted on the soil of the beautiful country, making them taste the bitter consequences of military sanctions."
People engaged in a verbal battle on the chat channel, exchanging barbs.
Many bored individuals, enjoying the chaos, cheered and clamored to join King Qin An's army to achieve the great feat of unifying Blue Star!
In reality, everyone clearly understood that condemnation and sanctions were all useless.
Currently, foreign races, zombies, and mutated beasts posed a grave threat to the lives of humans on Blue Star.
Even Golden tier experts dared not easily venture to another city.
Some people, even if they had the intention to come to Tianzhu and stir up more trouble, would likely find it difficult to reach Tianzhu through the layers of threats.
However, all the survivors in Tianzhu were indeed trembling in fear, anxiously worried about when King Qin An's army would descend upon their cities.
It was not easy for a million-strong army to enter Tianzhu.
Although Dark Night had already found several relatively safe routes.
It was still unavoidable to clash with foreign races and zombies, and occasionally they would be obstructed by powerful mutated beasts that suddenly appeared.
Fortunately, Ding Teng and Duan Tianhe could deal with the bloodthirsty zombies, and the Purple Beetles had driven out the majority of foreign races from the roads the army passed through.
The accompanying Golden tier experts could also deal with the high-level enemies among the escaped ones.
Each army also possessed "thousand-mile sound transmission talismans" for communicating with each other. Once a major threat was encountered, they would notify Qin Shilei to make appropriate arrangements.
...
The second city Qin Shilei and his group reached was Tuerda.
The majority of people in Tuerda worshipped Shiva as their deity.
When Qin Shilei once again destroyed the temple with lightning speed, the city lord of Tuerda arrived late.
Upon seeing Qin Shilei, the other party immediately turned and fled into the distance.
"Since you've come, why flee!"
Qin Shilei teleported and caught up with the other party, thrusting his sword forward.
This was a Golden tier one-star expert.
Qin Shilei would not leave such a hidden threat in the city; his appearance was destined for only one outcome.
After blocking the sword with an item he possessed, the person immediately turned and begged loudly, "Spare me, I am willing to become your proxy."
"It's too late."
Qin Shilei unleashed over a dozen more sword strikes, mercilessly beheading the other party.
Even now, Shiva had not descended, suggesting that this city had not reached the conditions for Shiva's appearance.
With the only Golden tier expert in the city killed by Qin Shilei, Tuerda was forcefully occupied.
Thus, in less than half a month, Qin Shilei had occupied half of Tianzhu's territory, including nearly twelve large bases with over a hundred thousand inhabitants.
The temples in dozens of smaller bases with fewer than a hundred thousand people had also been completely destroyed.
A total of eight Golden tier experts from Tianzhu were killed.
During this period, a clone of Shiva never appeared, nor did the other two major deities of Tianzhu, Brahma and the Heavenly King of Illusions, manifest themselves.
It was unknown if Brahma and the Heavenly King of Illusions had already perished, or if they were simply deities imagined by the people of Tianzhu.
After taking yet another city, An Qian frowned and said, "Shilei, we haven't encountered any Golden tier experts in the past ten days. Do you think they are gathering together to plot something?"
"It's very possible," Qin Shilei nodded and said, "We don't need to be overly concerned about Tianzhu's Golden tier experts, but Shiva among them might reappear, so we must be vigilant."
He paused and then added, "We need to change our strategy and take over Tianzhu with lightning speed."
In fact, Qin Shilei's advancement in Tianzhu was already very fast, but to allow the army behind him to keep up and completely control the cities he had captured, he had been delayed in fully occupying the entire country of Tianzhu.
"The Formless Mask," An Qian suddenly had an idea, "Since they are likely gathered together, plotting against us. Why don't we use the Formless Mask to infiltrate their ranks, uncover their plans, and then devise corresponding countermeasures?"
Upon hearing this, an idea also emerged in Qin Shilei's mind.
His eyes lit up, and he said, "Alright, if you all wish to rest for a while, I will go there to investigate. Perhaps we will have a good show to put on then."
He then quietly discussed the details with An Qian.
After Qin Shilei explained the entire plan, An Qian also showed a pleased expression, believing the plan had great potential.
Half an hour later, Qin Shilei transformed into a handsome Tianzhu youth and flew towards the west of Tianzhu.
