Chapter 320 Sinister Plan
Chapter 320 Sinister Plan
"How would Shakuni sneak an army of 500,000 into a city?
I'm sure the mastermind strategist you claim he was, he could solve this problem" Anna said, as she pushed Max towards thinking like his idol
Max wondered about it for a while before saying " My brother? If it were him, he probably would not attack the capital city at all.
The Kingsman clan have 4 total planets they control, 2 of them were their original territory and 2 of them were from when they annexed the Paratus clan.
The reason why I'm avoiding doing it is because conquering every planet will require manpower and will lead to loss of lives.
Already, the Whiteman clan is eyeing one of the four planets that the Kingsman control because he knows that without Will Kingsman at the helm the Kingsman forces are spread out thin and can't defend their auxiliary territories properly
But they don't have the explicit permission of the king to attack yet which is why they are holding off for a while.
The four planets they control are not particularly valuable as 80% of the Kingsman trade by volume goes through Dombivli city while the other 4 planets together contribute very little.
However, if one manages to control all 4 planets they can choke out the merchant trading route for the Kingsman clan, making it impossible for merchant ships to go inside and outside the Kingsman clan, straining their economy.
Even then, they can probably continue to live in peace for decades as dombivli is 80% self sufficient, it's trace ban will ruin the economy but not do much otherwise"
While Max said this, the gears in his head began to turn fast as he realised that creating a false economic crisis on Kingsman territory could be an opportunity for him
" Wait, wait, wait, I think if we squeeze their trade routes and cripple their merchants, then when they are desperate we send Christian Grey to meet them with the promise that he will sneakily continue trade with Kingsman even though every other merchant was scared, we can have him win Kingsman clan trust.
Then one fine day, instead of the cargo, he could bring lots and lots of ships loaded with soldiers instead of cargo and in that manner we can land on dombivli without facing the heavy weaponry of the enemy.
I think if we figure out the details, this plan can work!
Oh my god Anna you are genius " Max said excitedly as he felt like he had his ' Eureka ' moment.
" No no, it was all you- , also I think this plan can work, however, we need to do a lot of foundation work on it and also I have no idea who Christian Grey is or how reliable he is.
But if you trust him then… okay " Anna said as she was delighted that she was able to help Max
Although they were all equal in the group as students in university, somewhere along the line Max became the de facto leader of the group while everyone else became his supporters.
Now he was carrying the burden of leadership alone and Anna was happy to help him any tiny bit that she could.
***************
( Meanwhile Lucifer, at the dark conference )
Every 10 years, the six dark faction monarch's met for a conference.
In the dark faction, the tier 8 monarchs were not referred to as monarchs, but rather called Sovereign
The six sovereigns were
The ox sovereign Satan
The demon sovereign Astarte
The fallen angel/ devil sovereign Lucifer
The dark elf sovereign Elegast
The human sovereign Kane
The necromancy sovereign Anubis
Apart from the Sovereigns there were some other tier8 god's who lived a hermit life without a kingdom or faction such as the dark shaman god Memphidos and the Lust god Asmodeus, however they were not invited to this meeting.
Every 10 years they discussed the state of affairs, and while all of them had internal clashes and tensions, they were mature enough to put them aside for this meeting as they talked about the universe as a whole.
" If the dragons break their neutrality and lean towards the light faction, the balance of power will shift towards them.
Even with the phoenix, divine nine tails and divine tortoise clans remaining neutral, the dragon's themselves outpower the rest of the beasts.
We absolutely can't let that happen " Kane the human Sovereign said as he assessed the situation
" I've already begun the process of starting a civil war, the child Mira will not be allowed to survive for much longer, sooner or later she will die and with her blood shall start a bloody civil war that will destroy the dragon's, kekekeke" Lucifer said as he began to laugh evilly
" We still need to prepare our forces for war, whether Lucifer's plan fails or succeeds, war will be at our doorsteps either way ". Kane said as he insisted to the others to take this matter more seriously.
" I'm not afraid of the light faction, they have also lost the Thunder warrior, they are no longer as strong as they once were " Anubis said as he knew that Thor's absence had hurt the lightfaction big time.
" I say we take the initiative and launch an attack on the dragon's first, because even if 11 out of the 13 dragon species rebel, the golden and the black dragon clans together can quell them all.
If we want to dethrone the monarch and place a puppet we need to get our own hands dirty " Satan said as he urged everyone to prepare for war.
" The angels won't sit idly if we interfere, if Lucifer's method fails we need to try something different, but direct conflict is not the solution " Elegast the elf said as he tried to knock some sense into ox brain.
" There will be war, be prepared for it.
If I can negotiate the correct price with the universal queen, I think I can help us get the upper hand
With her in our corner we can get the light faction wiped in one fell swoop, kekekekeke " Lucifer said as his evil eyes gleamed with the thought of a sinister plan.
