Merchant From Earth in the Magical World-Chapter 549 - 384 - : The Battle of the Century_1

On the Battlefield of the Century, forty-two gigantic floating platforms drifted between three hundred and five hundred meters in the air, their tiered seats filled with heroes who had traveled from all around the world.

Surrounding the massive floating platforms, nearly one hundred airships floated, providing services to the audience on the platforms.

The Eternal Domain took just four months to complete this construction marvel, powerfully showcasing its terrifying manufacturing and coordination capabilities to the world's heroes.

The audience, seated in the stands, felt nothing but awe at their surroundings.

And at the same time, a concept arose in their hearts: Cloud Tower's defeat was not unjust!

The Battle of the Century had not yet begun, yet most of the heroes who came to watch had already made their judgment.

Even if Cloud Tower could win here, the Thunderous Swamp would still be the one to dominate the new century.

Cloud Tower could not possibly defeat Thunderous Swamp, which possessed such exquisite Alchemy Technology and such powerful production capacity.

No!

The Alchemists of Thunderous Swamp, hidden all along, remained concealed. All of this was merely what the Eternal Domain, acting as the vanguard, had constructed.

If the Alchemists of Thunderous Swamp were to take the field themselves, what kind of miracles could they create? One really looks forward to it!

After a long wait…

The two Great Armies appeared on the eastern and western sides of the Battlefield of the Century, respectively.

Both the Thunder Coalition and the Cloud Coalition brought their most elite troops to boost their own momentum, their lines of soldiers stretching as far as the eye could see.

Countless flying units filled the air, obscuring the sky.

The imposing aura, like dark clouds pressing down on a city threatening to overwhelm it, made the audience caught in the middle tense up.

If these two sides discarded the rules and launched a decisive battle with hundreds of thousands of troops here, could any of us leave alive?

And just as the audience was worrying, the gigantic floating platforms unfolded their protective shields and increased their altitude, distancing themselves from the ground.

The view became even clearer.

...

Both armies halted one kilometer from the Battlefield of the Century, while the troops designated for the Century War continued their advance.

The Cloud Coalition dispatched 20,000 troops for the battle, predominantly hero units. Orcs, Ogres, and some human heavy infantry formed the front line, flanked by human Knights and Evil Wolf Knights. Some Tower Mages took to the air, while others remained concealed among the ground troops.

A standard, traditional offensive formation.

The general tactic was a central push forward, with both flanks spreading out to form a pincer attack on the enemy's sides. Aerial forces would concentrate their attacks on key enemy areas.

The Thunder Coalition also dispatched 20,000 troops, mostly non-hero units from a multitude of races.

Unlike the traditional dense formations deployed by the Cloud Coalition, the Thunder Coalition's formation was very loose, with troops arranged in groups of three, each group generally spaced more than one meter apart.

This arrangement made their formation appear extremely large upon deployment; its front line alone stretched twice as long as the Cloud Coalition's.

Among the audience in the sky platforms were many outstanding military commanders, yet none could discern the purpose behind the Thunder Coalition's troop arrangement.

This net-like formation not only hindered the concentration of forces for an attack, but it also seemed difficult to effectively cover soldiers with Defense Magic during defense.

It looked as if it would scatter the moment an enemy force, concentrated like a fist, charged.

The two armies continued to advance, steadily closing the distance between them.

The Cloud Coalition Mages began their pre-battle magical preparations.

Rings of buffing Magic rippled through the formation, while airborne Tower Mages collaboratively raised Magical Shields to provide magical protection for the entire army.

The dense formation made these magical effects highly significant.

Meanwhile, the Thunder Coalition's troops made no magical preparations as they advanced, marching forward with no magical protection whatsoever.

Yan Xing and his fiancée, Hibel, riding at the forefront of the army, also refrained from applying any magical enhancements to themselves.

Their horses advanced side by side, neck and neck.

What was the Thunder Coalition planning?

This battle prohibited new-style weapons, but no one said Magic couldn't be used!

Hadn't they seen the light radiating from the Cloud Coalition's troops, more dazzling than any rainbow?

The war drums thundered.

The two armies continued to draw closer.

Mounted on his horse, Yan Xing could already see the enemy troops approaching.

Overhead, the gigantic floating platforms drifted, exuding a science-fiction atmosphere.

"Chui Chui…" Yan Xing called out in his mind and quickly received a response.

"Master, I am here."

"Is the Century Battlefield's war system ready?"

"Reporting to Master, the war monitoring system installed on the forty-two gigantic floating platforms has completed booting and self-check procedures.

"1,542 probes are 99.5% operational. 450 intelligent cores are responsible for real-time war data collection and can accurately identify and track 50,000 units.

"Forty-two war servers are operating normally.

"Connection with the Eternal Domain's information network is normal.

"Our war communication channels are normal.

"Energy supply is sufficient.

"The Nine-Headed Dragon Database connection is complete.

"The Nine-Headed Dragon's Energy remote transmission chain is clear.

"The transmission equipment center has allocated 67% of its computing power to the Century Battlefield.

"Three orbital satellites are in position, and the planetary magnetic field calculation chain is operating smoothly.

"Master, Chui Chui is responsible for battlefield data link support. Please rest assured."

"Very well! Then prepare to attack!"

"As you command, Master!"

In the headsets worn by the Thunder Coalition's participating warriors, Chui Chui's voice rang out, "Hello, soldier… I am Chui Chui, your battlefield coordinator for this Battle of the Century. I am delighted to be with you, today, at this very moment, as we personally usher the world into a new era."
