Naval Gacha System: It's Time To Monopolize The Seven Seas!-Chapter 316: | | The Great War Part 4: Warring Period

Throughout the supercontinent of Europa, the flames of war ignited across the expansive land. From the largest of continental regions, to the smallest. The League of Humanity was wrestling multiple fronts, earning defeat after defeat. Strongholds crumbled as countries collapsed. The Great War for Supremacy had truly begun.

In terms of quantity, the United World Government was dwarfed by the League of Humanity, which resided in the largest landmass of the primordial world. If it was a war of attrition, the United Military wouldn't be able to keep up against the depths of the Magus Tower and the Sovereigns.

But the strategy utilized by the United Military wasn't a figment of the general doctrine. Instead, it was a world war plan that targeted every capital belonging to the League of Humanity. Since the United World Government wouldn't be able to overwhelmed a chunk of Europa, might as well sever the heads of those who rule over it.

With this in mind, strategic ships warped into the heavens throughout several capital cities simultaneously. It was a plan ambush that caught the League of Humanity off guard.

Most generals thought that the southern landing was the main force of the United World Government. They had expected for the heretics to fight in a large campaign in the southern continental region. However, why should the United Military fight in a disadvantageous front?

And so, one after another, capitals fell into the hands of the United World Government. Countries were thrown into chaos as their government collapsed under the weight of the United Military. The locals couldn't even mount a revolt. How could they resist a force that could crush their military into damnation?

It would be foolish to do so.

In the Magus Tower, the council of Arch Magus gathered together for a war meeting. The situation has escalated beyond their control with multiple countries asking for reinforcements. If they ever faltered, the frontlines would collapsed. It wouldn't take long before the United Military reach their doorsteps.

The thought alone was infuriating for the old fools who had served as the heads of the Magus Tower for over a hundred years. But there wasn't much they could do about it. After all, even the Sovereigns didn't dare leave their countries to fight in the frontlines.

While they were the leaders of humanity, they were first and foremost the guardians or monarchs of their respective countries. The moment they leave, their nations would be leave defenseless to whatever threat outside of their influence. Because of this, the Magus Tower was force to face the frontlines alone.

"The eastern continental region is falling apart. Countries are demanding our assistance. It wouldn't take any longer than a month for the whole east to collapse under the weight of those invaders." A council elder of the Magus Tower uttered with a grim tone, yet the others remained silent. After all, they were exasperated by the circumstance they face.

What was supposed to be a war of attrition that the Magus Tower would win became a cascading failure that caused the collapse of multiple countries. The League of Humanity was crumbling. It wouldn't take long for major nations in the central continental region to start moving on their own.

The moment those major nations do so would be the complete decimation of the League of Humanity. If they were divided, the United World Government would be able to pounce on them one by one. In simpler terms, the frontlines was getting nearer to their front yard. Such a thing hadn't happened for hundreds of years.

Even the great war long ago didn't result in such a pitiful outcome.

"The same could be said with the western continental region. Several monarchies are escaping the flames of war, stampeding towards the central region. Our militaries had been incapacitated by that ruthless attack a couple of days ago." Another council member remarked, grumbling about the first strike assault that brought devastation upon their forces throughout Europa.

His words alone made everyone within the council frown. None of them could forget the humiliation brought upon them by the destructive assault of the United Military. They remembered the nears of abyssal pits scattered throughout Europa. Such destruction impacted their armed forces. Even the Magus Tower was forced to be secretive within their own land.

"There's not much we can do about it. Instead of arguing about what to do with those regions, I suggest we consolidate our power in the central continental region. Being spread thin would bring upon our downfall. We wouldn't stand a chance against the United World Government, especially without the assistance of the Sovereigns." An aloof council member proposed.

"If we do such thing, we would lose the trust of the member states. That could lead to our downfall, the collapse of the League of Humanity!" One of the council members countered as the others nodded in agreement. The League of Humanity was led by the Sovereigns with the Magus Tower acting as the administrators.

It was built on trust that the member states wouldn't need to bother with military force. Because of this, the Magus Tower and the major nations were considered as the strongest powers of Europa. No one could rival them in terms of military strength. An advantage given to them by the member states after relinquishing most of their military power.

If they abandoned those outside of the central continental region, the League of Humanity would lose that core belief of supremacy and authority. The alliance between over a hundred nations would fracture in mere days. Europa would be plunged into the Warring Period once more with most nations confronting one another.

The United World Government wouldn't even need to destroy then anymore. Those heretical bastards could merely wait as the League of Humanity devours itself. It was obvious why most council members were against abandoning those outside of the central continental region. It wouldn't do for their cause or their defense against the invasion of the United Military.

"There's not much we can do about our situation. We don't stand a chance against the might of the United Military. Can you carry the weight if our entire force gets trampled by those heretical bastards?" The aloof council member raised his eyebrows, earning the exasperated grunts of his colleagues. They understood his reasoning. It wasn't about maintaining the trust of member states.

Keeping up in their current state would accelerate their collapse much faster than being abandoned by the member states. Besides, the central continental region could fall from its armies being spread too thin. They must consolidate themselves and ensure that a defensive line could be kept against the United World Government. It was the only thing they could do.

A couple of days passed and the actions of the Magus Tower council rocked the entirety of the super continent, Europa. The moment that Magus Regiments were being withdrawn back to the central continental region for unknown reasons brought about a cascading wave of doubts into the League of Humanity. Member states outside of the continental center stirred, but there was nothing they could do about it.

After all, the Magus Tower and the major countries in the continental center wielded the true power of the League of Humanity. The only thing that the member states outside could do was resist until the end. Or so they thought. Out of nowhere, news about a southern nation defecting to the United World Government caused chaos throughout the super continent of Europa.

It was the first that a human state stood outside of humanity's banner. The news alone was troublesome for those who wielded power inside the continental center. It would emboldened the abandoned member states to join the United World Government to avoid the hammer of retribution in the form of the United Military.

If the southern nation that defected wasn't punished for the things they had done, even member states inside the continental center beside the major nations would begin doubting the legitimacy of the League of Humanity. For the first time, the Magus Tower and the Sovereigns convened an assembly to discuss about the matters of the defection alongside the path forward.

Meanwhile, as chaos flooded the super continent of Europa, the archipelago was somewhat calm. The United World Government, despite being within a war economy, was unaffected by the flames of war. If it wasn't being televised in the news everyday, some citizens would even forget they were fighting a war in the first place. Before the United World Government, such a thing could never happened.

The logistics for an invasion into the super continent Europa was so troublesome that this was the first time it happened. Even the Revolting Tide didn't dare to move closer to the continent, not wanting to poke the hornet nest that was the League of Humanity. But things had changed now. Since the unification of the archipelago under the United World Government.

It had become a major power within the Primordial World, incomparable to the central nations of the League of Humanity.
