"Su Bai! I swear I will kill you!"
Li Chengcan, deputy commander of the armed forces of the Great Han Ming Kingdom, clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with an uncontrollable rage.
Park Hyun-joon stood to one side, saying angrily, "That bastard Su Bai openly provoked the majesty of the Great Han Ming Kingdom; he's practically courting death!"
Li Chengcan turned around, glanced at his subordinate lords, and a murderous intent appeared on his face.
"Does Su Bai think he can be arrogant just because he killed a level 60+ lord?"
"No! He's wrong! Utterly wrong!"
"Now, I command!"
"You will all lead your respective troops and immediately attack Su Bai!"
"We must exterminate the swarm of insects and take Su Bai's head in the shortest possible time!"
"Yes, sir!" The lords rubbed their hands together, responding loudly.
These lords' respective troops are all in the level 70s to 80s.
They can be described as a mainstay of the South Korean military.
The fact that the entire Korean military was mobilized this time demonstrates the deep hatred the Korean military harbors towards Su Bai.
However, in order to avoid antagonizing the Chinese military.
No lords of level 90 or above from the Han Kingdom were mobilized.
...
...
Three days later.
The great war officially broke out.
The 30 million insect swarm under Su Bai's command.
They faced 28 lords of the Han Kingdom's military, totaling over 35 million troops.
"Lord Su, the enemy's total number of troops is greater than ours."
"Furthermore, their average level is also higher than that of our troops."
"Can we win this battle?"
Li Enzhen looked at Su Bai, a hint of worry in her beautiful eyes.
Su Bai smiled slightly, his eyes sparkling with confidence.
"The total number of enemy forces, and their average level, are slightly higher than those of the Zerg forces."
"However, the advantage still lies with me!"
"Firstly, the enemy force consisted of troops from more than twenty lords."
"A multi-ethnic coalition is bound to lack coordination."
"Even if they have a large number of them, they are still a ragtag army and cannot compare to the swarm of insects."
"Secondly, I myself, as well as the Queen of Blades, possess numerous group buff skills."
"In large-scale battles, the impact of each additional group buff skill on the battle situation will be enormous."
"Thirdly, the swarm has multiple types of soldiers working together, complementing each other's strengths, and there is no shortage of any of them."
"Large-scale campaigns emphasize overall coordination."
"The swarm of 30 million insects is under my command and control, which is a perfect match and maximizes our combat power."
"Therefore, the Zerg swarm will surely win this battle!"
Upon hearing this, Kerrigan, Zhao Ganwu, and Dehaka all nodded in agreement, "The Zerg Swarm will prevail!"
Springtails, hydralisks, cockroaches, and poppy gnats.
The Wraith, the Destroyer, the Corruptor, the Brood Lord.
They launched an attack on the Korean army from both ground and air.
Lightning roared across the sky, tearing through the dark clouds.
The brutality of the war left onlookers deeply saddened.
For the first three days, the two sides were evenly matched.
Starting from the fourth day, the swarm gradually gained the upper hand.
Until the tenth day.
The army, composed of twenty-eight lords of the Han Kingdom, was showing signs of collapse.
"Kerrigan, Zhao Ganwu, Dehaka!"
"Lead the Zerg swarm and launch a full-scale attack!"
"We must crush the enemy today!"
Su Bai, perched atop the Thunder Beast's head, exuded confidence and issued his orders.
"Yes, my lord!"
The three generals received their orders and led the Zerg swarm to launch the final assault.
Li Enzhen stood to one side, her beautiful eyes sparkling, and said, "Lord Su, I never expected that in just ten days, the enemy's more than 35 million troops would show signs of collapse."
“That’s normal!” Su Bai smiled slightly. “No army can withstand the onslaught of a swarm of insects!”
Time passed second by second.
Under the full-scale attack launched by the swarm of insects, the Han Kingdom's army began to collapse.
Blood stained the withered branches and weeds on the ground, seeping into the earth through the cracks in the soil.
Each insect soldier was ferocious and terrifying.
Like demons from hell, they utterly terrified these South Korean soldiers.
The South Korean soldiers abandoned their armor and weapons, staggering forward in a desperate flight, their bodies covered in blood, their eyes filled with panic, fear, and a hint of despair.
"Young Master Su, the victory is assured!"
Li Enzhen's face lit up with joy, and her cheeks lit up with a smile.
"Pass down the order: charge with all your might!" Su Bai's eyes snapped open, his gaze sharp as knives: "Kill all twenty-eight lords of the Han Kingdom's military without mercy! Do not let a single one escape!"
"Yes, sir!"
Li Enzhen leaped into the air and began to carry out Su Bai's orders.
The setting sun was like blood, and the sky was filled with rosy clouds.
The ten-day war has finally come to an end.
All twenty-eight lords of the Han Kingdom's military were killed, with none surviving.
Of the more than 35 million troops, as many as 70% were killed or wounded.
The remaining surviving troops became a defeated army and scattered in all directions.
"That was awesome! That was awesome!"
Zhao Ganwu's eyes lit up, "Killing those South Korean bastards is truly gratifying!"
"Lord Su, I must say, your Zerg swarm is truly invincible!" Li Enzhen blinked, her voice tinged with a sigh.
Su Bai, perched atop the Thunder Beast's head, waved his hand and spoke in a booming voice.
"Zerg swarm, continue the attack!"
"If the South Korean military doesn't agree to my terms, then we'll keep killing!"
"This time, I will show all the lords in the world just how terrible the price will be for provoking me!"
...
...
Su Bai killed twenty-eight Han Kingdom lords, including nearly ten lords who were over level eighty.
The news shocked the world.
The South Korean military was utterly terrified.
"How...how could this happen?"
"That's twenty-eight high-ranking lords and an army of thirty-five million!"
"How could it have vanished in just ten days?"
Damn it!
"How can Su Bai's strength be so terrifying?"
Lee Seung-chan trembled, as if an invisible pressure was making it hard for him to breathe.
Park Hyun-joon was struck a heavy blow to the heart, his face turning pale and bloodless: "That Su Bai is a monster! We are both lords who arrived this year, but how come his insect swarm has developed to such a powerful level!"
This time, Park Hyun-joon deeply felt that although they both arrived at the Land of Salvation in the same year, Su Bai had already left him far behind.
Unbeknownst to him, his fear and hatred of Su Bai both reached their peak.
"Sir! What should we do now? How can we kill this guy?!"
"The power of the Great Cold Netherworld alone is insufficient to deal with Su Bai and the Dragon Kingdom's military behind him." Li Chengcan no longer hesitated and made up his mind, "We must seek help from the United States to overcome this crisis!"
...
Not long after.
The South Korean military's request for assistance was sent to the US military.
"Sir, should we send reinforcements?" Maxson asked.
"Su Bai alone slaughtered the military lords of the Koreans, leaving a bloodbath. I have to say, the Koreans are truly useless!" William shook his head, his eyes full of sarcasm. "It's not worth fighting to the death with the Dragon Kingdom for a dog!"
“But no matter what, South Korea is still our dog!” Maxson said. “Even when beating a dog, you have to consider its owner. Su Bai’s actions are truly arrogant!”
“If Su Bai beats Han Guo badly, Han Guo will become our dog even more obediently!” William said with a smile, showing no sign of panic.
He continued, "Supporting South Korea is necessary, but not now!"
"Our cooperation with the God of Darkness is ongoing!"
"Given time, our nation's power on Earth and in the land of redemption will experience a leap forward!"
"For now, let's put up with Su Bai's arrogance and smugness!"
"In the future, when the American Empire launches a powerful offensive, it will sweep across the globe!"
"Whether it's the Dragon Kingdom or the Bear Kingdom, we will crush them!"
"At that time, a mere Su Bai could easily behead him with a laugh!"
Upon hearing this, a hint of excitement appeared on Maxon's face.
He couldn't help but ask, "How much longer do we have to wait before we can launch a full-scale attack on the Dragon Kingdom and the Bear Kingdom?"
"It could take as little as three months, or as long as a year!" William's eyes narrowed, his expression as sinister as a venomous snake: "By then, Earth, the Land of Redemption, will all fall into the hands of the United States!"
"Anyone, any force, any country that dares to defy the will of the United States will only face one fate—death!"
...
The US military rejected the South Korean military's request for support.
Immediately, the entire South Korean military was thrown into chaos.
Li Chengcan's heart skipped a beat, and blood rushed to his head, making him feel dizzy.
"The situation is extremely precarious, yet the United States is completely ignoring it!"
"If we send out a level 90 or higher lord, we can definitely stop the Zerg army's offensive!"
"But if we do that, the Chinese military will join the war!"
"At that time, the entire Great Cold Nether Kingdom will likely be in danger of collapse!"
Park Hyun-joon's eyes were filled with panic, and all the color drained from his face. "Sir, Su Bai's insectoid forces are continuing to slaughter our troops. What should we do now?"
Lee Seung-chan pursed his lips and remained silent.
The other military personnel were also in a panic, unable to think of a way to deal with Su Bai.
At that moment, an operations staff officer rushed in with an order in hand, shouting, "Presidential order! The military must agree to Su Bai's conditions!"
"What!"
Upon receiving the order, Li Chengcan's face paled in shock, his eyes filled with disbelief. "How can I agree to such humiliating conditions!"
“If the United States refuses to provide support and does not agree to Su Bai’s conditions, South Korea may really perish…” Park Hyun-joon muttered to himself, blurting it out unconsciously.
Li Chengcan clenched his fists, his face as pale as paper.
After a long pause, he sighed, "Then... let's agree to Su Bai's conditions..."
Su Bai's conditions mainly consist of three major aspects.
First, ceding territory.
One million square kilometers of land adjacent to the barren desert and belonging to the Han Kingdom's military were unconditionally ceded and incorporated into the Star Swarm's sphere of influence.
Second, compensation.
The costs of the Zerg army's expedition, as well as the casualties among the Zerg soldiers caused by the war, should be borne by the Han Kingdom.
South Korea needs to pay compensation:
500 million souls.
Timber, stone, and iron blocks, 30 million each.
High-grade energy gems, 1 million pieces.
Third, issue a public apology.
The Korean military needs to publicly apologize to Su Bai for the previous assassination attempt.
The news shocked the world.
The world chat channel instantly erupted in excitement.
[Holy crap! Is Su Bai really that terrifying?]
[He single-handedly confronted an entire nation and actually won!]
[Slaying twenty-eight high-ranking lords of the Cold Kingdom and annihilating a 35 million-strong Cold Kingdom army—this is simply too powerful!]
[The South Korean military's attitude—ceding territory, paying reparations, and apologizing—is remarkably sincere!]
[The Koreans are so afraid of being beaten that they accepted Su Bai's conditions!]
The people of South Korea have always been arrogant, self-righteous, and disdainful of others! Yet now, they've agreed to such humiliating conditions as ceding territory, paying reparations, and issuing apologies!
[Su Shen is indeed mighty! Single-handedly, he has forced Han Guo into this predicament!]
[Cease territory and pay reparations—who would have thought that the people of South Korea in the 21st century would do something so humiliating!]
[Baka! That madman Su Bai, relying on the strength of his army, is openly disrupting world peace! I propose that all nations unite to fight against Su Bai and against the Dragon Kingdom!]
[Those little devils, coming out to spout nonsense again?]
[Damn it! You little devils, get the hell out of here!]
[Boss Su, while you're dealing with South Korea, why not take care of the Japanese too!]
[Long live Boss Su Bai! This time, forcing Han to accept such humiliating and subjugating conditions has greatly boosted the morale of the Chinese nation!]
I firmly believe that under Su Bai's leadership, the Dragon Kingdom will surely achieve even greater glory!
[Forcing foreign countries to cede territory and pay reparations—such a vengeful act is truly inspiring!]
[Su Shen, from this day forward, I will be your most loyal fan!]
...
...
A desolate wilderness.
Zerg territory in space.
"My lord, we have received all the reparations from the Han Kingdom's military, as well as the ceded land!" Kerrigan said quickly.
"good!"
Su Bai nodded slightly.
Zhao Ganwu, standing to the side, couldn't help but say, "Lord, why not take advantage of the momentum and wipe out those Korean bastards in one fell swoop?"
"Now is not the time."
Su Bai slowly said, "If we continue the attack, the lords of Han Kingdom who are level 90 or above will cause us considerable trouble."
"Now, forcing South Korea to accept my conditions is the best possible outcome."
"Once the average level of our Zerg army surpasses 90, we will be able to do whatever we want and attack any country at will."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ganwu's face lit up with excitement. "I really hope that day comes soon!"
"Young Master Su, your gains this time are truly enormous!" Li Enzhen said, looking at Su Bai.
Su Bai's lips curled up. "Thanks to the Korean military, otherwise, how could I have made such a huge gain?"
The souls obtained from killing the Han Kingdom's army, along with the 500 million souls paid in reparations by the Han Kingdom, greatly increased the size of the swarm once again.
Nowadays, even level 90 lords dare not underestimate Su Bai.
Because the Zerg swarm is so large.
This is enough to create a numerical overwhelming force against any single lord.
Some weak nations, even with the utmost efforts from their lords, are unable to withstand the swarm of insectoid forces.
Now, looking at the entire Land of Redemption, Su Bai can definitely be called a high-ranking lord of great importance!
...
...
Time flies like an arrow; it passes in the blink of an eye.
Before we knew it.
Six months later.
