Chapter 416. The One Who Rules Xenobia.

==========

But even though it’s called a diplomatic war, Humanity initially sided with the “Southern Union,” where Raksha was. Of course, the users of the Northern Alliance, led by the Magellan Clan, screamed their lungs out at Humanity’s attitude…

Originally, the Southern Union received Humanity’s support first lol. Plus, realistically, the Southern Union is doing the tanking for Humanity, what value does the Northern Puppet Alliance even have lolololololol.

Comments:

– [You’re a damn Southern separatist brat]

– [ㅗㅗ Get lost, Northern puppet scum] (Author)

– [ㅅㅂ Didn’t you guys get invaded by Humanity before? Now you’re simping for Humanity, huh?]

– [Yeah, if you guys hadn’t invaded in the first place, this wouldn’t have happened, you idiots] (Author)

– [These guys are calling each other Southern puppets and Northern puppets lololol]

– [That’s the beauty of this civil war]

—————————————–

There’s also some provocation (?) from certain users who seem highly likely to be from the “Southern Union.” But realistically, it makes much more sense for Humanity to take the Southern Union as their subordinate faction.

Title: But honestly, forget the North-South puppet nonsense, there’s no reason for Humanity to help the Magellan Clan lol

As you can see from the map, Humanity is stuck within the territory of the old Earth Federation. Even if they managed to get some of the Earth Federation’s fleets to surrender and use them for border defense, it’s still not enough. In this situation, there’s no reason for Humanity to help the Magellan Clan and the Northern Alliance. It’s much better to just give some resources to the Southern Union and use them as a meat shield. Plus, Humanity owes the Southern Union after their previous large-scale invasion, so it’s totally plausible they’d help out lol.

Comments:

– [Is that so?]

– [This feels too brainy for me]

– [Hmmmm]

– [Calling them a meat shield is a bit harsh, don’t you think?]

– [lololol]

—————————————–

Most users, even mid-to-large-sized clans, speculated that Humanity would use the Southern Union as a “meat shield” or a “human iron line.” But not long after, the actual situation took a completely different turn. Contrary to what the public expected…

Title: Breaking News) Xenobia Northern Alliance Launches Massive Offensive

Author: News Boy

The Southern Union, which had been taking hits from the Magellan Clan led by the veteran Raksha (ranked 2nd), recently had most of their supply shipments from Humanity stolen by guerrilla users from the Northern Alliance. This led to a shortage of supplies, and the Southern Union, already outnumbered compared to the North, finally saw their defense lines collapse. They’re now in full retreat on all fronts.

Comments:

– [Wait, what?]

– [What’s going on?]

– [Wait, weren’t Humanity’s supplies sent via mail? lol]

– [Supply requests are sent via mail, but the actual supplies are transported in separate cargo ship containers]

– [Oh]

– [The location of those supply fleets got leaked to the Northern Alliance’s detachment, and they got completely wiped out like a week or two ago] (Author)

– [Damn, that’s rough]

—————————————–

Since the Southern Union was collapsing on its own (at least from their perspective), they just clicked their tongues at the Southern Union’s downfall, saying Humanity would now negotiate with the Northern Alliance—or more accurately, the Magellan Clan, who would become the victors of the Xenobia Empire.

==========

But in reality, a much more sinister and cunning plot was unfolding…

—————————————–

<Humanity Staff Chat Room>

<Notice>

Matter: Xenobia Countermeasure Meeting>

-[So, we’re ditching the Southern Union?]

-[Yup]

-[Raksha is going wild]

-[Even if Magellan eats it all, Mona Lisa’s skills will hit a limit eventually]

-[In the end, it’s all about ship power, huh?]

—————————————–

Originally, Humanity was subtly supporting the Southern Union to keep rivals like the Magellan Clan and Justice Clan in check.

But recently, Raksha, who was forcibly pushed into the Southern Union’s leadership, has been shining too brightly.

Seeing that the Northern Alliance is shaking beyond just being checked,

They decided to collapse the Southern Union and Raksha, who were becoming hard to control, and push the Northern Alliance led by Mona Lisa, who would be easier to manage.

But doing that blatantly?

Already, the reward payments are slightly delayed.

And with the Earth Federation coup showing many cracks, if such issues pile up,

They might just end up getting flamed, and internal opinions could worsen, leading to instability.

So, Humanity’s staff, without proper rest after toppling the Earth Federation, had to brainstorm a new sneaky strategy.

And what was that method?

—————————————–

<Humanity Staff Chat Room>

<Notice: Xenobia Countermeasure Meeting>

-[But the supplies are moving through cargo fleets, right?]

-[Yup]

-[So, if we just tell Magellan their location?]

-[To the Magellan Clan?]

-[Yup]

-[Mona Lisa is in trouble with leadership issues lately, if we leak info to Gold Horse, it’s a win-win for us and Gold Horse keeps the clan leader position]

-[Good]

—————————————–

They deliberately leaked the location of Humanity’s supply fleet heading to the Southern Union to Mona Lisa, the Magellan Clan leader.

This way, Mona Lisa could gain merit, maintaining the Magellan Clan and the Northern Alliance’s leadership,

While simultaneously preventing the Southern Union from gaining more power.

==========

Of course, if the Northern Alliance was too weak to plunder the supply fleet,

They would have just scrapped the plan and continued supporting the Southern Union.

But luckily for the Northern Alliance, Mona Lisa, seeing this as her last chance, personally led the clan’s elite users in a raid on the supply fleet.

As a result,

Under Mona Lisa’s regained leadership, the Northern Alliance’s offensive led to the collapse of the Southern Union’s defense lines, which were suffering from resource shortages.

Despite efforts by Raksha and other veterans to stabilize the crumbling situation…

In a desperate counterattack with the remaining fleet and resources, except for the veterans, the rest of the users’ fleets were wiped out.

The remaining Southern Union bases were quickly conquered, showing a rapid decline.

And exactly one week after the Northern Alliance’s major offensive began,

Raksha and all former Lutton Water Clan members, seeing no way out, escaped Xenobia with their followers.

With the capture of ‘Saigon’, the Southern Union’s last level 5 base, the long and drawn-out Xenobia user civil war finally concluded with the victory of the Magellan Clan and Mona Lisa.

Of course, that was only from the external users’ perspective.

<Notice: Xenobia Civil War Ended yup>

-[Southern Union users finally submitted to the Magellan Clan]

-[Mona Lisa sent a thank you message to our clan leader]

-[Lol]

-[Winner]

-[Lolololololol]

Humanity, fully aware of the situation, could only smile secretly at the fact that they had gained a new lackey… no, companion.
