Chapter 1214: Conquest Points! Hidden Lord Shop Points!
Chapter 1214: Domination Points! Hidden Lord's Shop Points!
"During the event, we shall operate under the banner of the Human Empire."
Zhou Zhan spoke calmly.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Ha Long, the True God, forcibly suppressed the shock, excitement, and tension surging within him, and quickly replied.
He had never imagined that the lordly faction he had joined would be none other than the legendary Changle Emperor's own faction!
No wonder.
Which of the myriad races' lordly factions could possibly boast a lord of true god rank stationed at its core?
It was the Jiaoyang Empire faction of the Changle Emperor!
Now all was clear.
But it's truly strange.
Just now, when I heard the Emperor say he was the master of the human race and the leading force among the myriad clans, why hadn't I thought of that before?
Ha Long's True God was filled with curiosity, yet dared not ask further.
Meanwhile, after securing the Ha Long Stellar Region, Zhou Zhan suddenly saw a line of text appear before him.
[Race Master Activity Prompt: Congratulations! You have successfully conquered Ha Long's True God and his entire faction. You have earned 100 million points of rivalry points!]
[Race Master Activity Prompt: Since you conquered this mid-level imperial faction during the first phase of the Race Master activity, you have earned 2,000 hidden master shop points!]
Upon seeing this prompt, Zhou Zhan's eyes lit up.
Indeed!
Conquering other master factions during the first phase of the activity does indeed yield unexpected rewards.
Of course it does.
Normally speaking,
The first phase of the Race Masters' activities is simply a period of internal strife among the various clan chieftains.
It has nothing to do with normal external invasions.
Ending the internal conflicts prematurely and launching an early campaign against other clan forces should at least come with some reward.
"Competitive points? And hidden clan merchant points? Is this the content of the activities in the later stages?"
Zhou Zhan felt a spark of curiosity.
Then, after a moment's thought, he decided not to dwell on it further.
With this time, it would be better to go straight ahead and conquer more clan forces.
Thus, he wasted no more time, exchanged a few brief words with Ha Long, the True God, and then led his army toward the nearest clan chieftain's territory.
…
The nearest multiracial domain to the Ha Long Continent belongs to the Fengling Race, a vast expanse governed by the chieftains of countless wind-spirit clans.
At this very moment, the Fengling Continent is in chaos, torn apart by the fierce struggle for the title of First-Stage Race Chieftain.
Each chieftain of the wind-spirit clans, within this relatively small landmass, engages in bloody conflict, utterly disregarding kinship or ancestral bonds.
In desperation, the higher echelons of the race’s power structures—observing this turmoil—decide to emulate the human race and other apex civilizations: to forcibly designate one supreme chieftain of the wind-spirit clans, thereby completing the First-Stage Race Chieftain ritual.
Yet, in their attempt to choose the most powerful wind-spirit chieftain, they stumble upon a fatal flaw.
The ruling councils of the wind-spirit race are not united in thought.
Some high-ranking figures wish to crown this particular chieftain as the paramount leader of their clan;
Others desire to elevate that other chieftain to the same exalted position.
Driven by self-interest, these councils clash endlessly, even engaging in covert battles and underhanded maneuvers.
The conflict among the wind-spirit chieftains remains unresolved.
Their elite factions within the race are about to go to war.
The root cause of this situation lies in the fact that among the high-ranking leaders of the Fengling race, there is no one like Zhou Zhou—someone capable of making a final, decisive decision.
Each faction holds its own opinion, none willing to yield. How could they possibly reach consensus?
When Zhou Zhan arrived on the Fengling Continent, gathering intelligence from Zero, he couldn't help but laugh at the sight.
Were they still fighting among themselves at such a critical juncture?
But then he quickly realized.
Perhaps only a few races—like himself and others at the top tier—can swiftly unify and select the strongest Universal Chieftain.
Yet, the scenario of the Fengling race, where factions fiercely argue and even fight to the death over the interests behind the strongest Universal Chieftain, is actually the most common occurrence during the initial phase of the Race Masters' activities.
He shook his head, then stepped out of the Supernova, flashing a brief display of muscle. Instantly, every Universal Chieftain of the Fengling race and their high-ranking leaders were left stunned.
The Human race... the Commoner Empire?
When did the human race, besides the Celestial People Emperor, ever have another such formidable master of the myriad races?
They've even established empires now—no longer falling behind the Jiaoyang Empire.
The Jiaoyang Empire under the Celestial People Emperor was merely a mid-tier empire.
Under the influence of the One-Body, Two-Souls master talent, the people of the Fenglin race had no way of conceiving that the present mortal master and mortal empire could possibly be equivalent to the Jiaoyang master and empire.
Their appearances differed, their armies varied, their master's weapons were distinct, their essences and moods diverged...
How could they possibly be the same master?
This thought stirred in their subconscious minds.
After Zhou Zhan had seized control of the Fenglin Continent,
a text prompt appeared.
[Master of Race Activity Prompt: Congratulations! You have successfully conquered Fengjuan True God and his subordinate forces. You have earned 100 million points of dominance!]
[Race Master Activity Notification: As you conquered the high-level empire faction of this race during the first stage of the Race Master activity, you have earned 4000 hidden lord shop points!]
...
[Race Master Activity Notification: Congratulations! You have successfully conquered all the ten-thousand-faction lords of the Wind Spirit race. You have earned 1000 dominance points!]
[Race Master Activity Notification: As you conquered the ten-thousand-faction lord faction of this race during the first stage of the Race Master activity, you have earned 1000 hidden lord shop points!]
...
After reading it, Zhou Zhan nodded with satisfaction.
One conquest, two rewards.
Excellent! Excellent!
At that moment, Zhou Zhou's voice appeared in his mind.
[The situation on Blue Star should be fine. You may take full control of it temporarily.]
[I have matters to attend to and must return to the Supreme Continent.]
[Should anything urgent arise, I will come back immediately.]
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhan smiled and said:
"Rest assured, the core self—there is little threat to us now in the myriad realms of the cosmos. As long as no Supreme God or stronger entity intervenes, few beings can challenge us. Go about your business without worry—there is nothing to fear from us."
"Very well."
Zhou Zhou replied briefly and immediately returned to the Blue Planet, then passed through the portal of summoning to re-enter the Supreme Continent.
After Zhou Zhou had departed, Zhou Zhan, relying on the cosmic star map left behind, began his vast expansion.
He divided his army into one hundred small legions and launched simultaneous attacks against one hundred universal chieftain factions.
Upon arriving at the Supreme Continent, the power of the universal chieftain factions was severely diminished. Facing Zhou Zhan’s assault, they had no capacity to resist and fell one by one beneath the iron tread of the "Commoner Empire" forces.
As more and more universal chieftain factions collapsed, the fame of the Commoner Empire spread far and wide, reaching the ears of various chieftain and race factions.
At the same time.
The Supreme Continent, the Pride Empire, the Capital of the Pride.
Zhou Zhou had just returned when he received a message.
Olofa has brought Gik and Xiri back!
