MMORPG: Divine Monster Transmuter - Chapter 569
Chapter 569: Good Bye 2017, Hello 2018
T/L Note: The chapter was released on the last day of 2017. Nothing to do with the novel’s timeline.
Half a month later.
The Inheritor of the Infernals Yao Qiong, Davies, Sakaguchi Shouta, and the others were all standing in the Infernal Emperor Palace in the Infernals Nation.
Moji and little Modi were sitting on their thrones.
Moji looked at little Modi next to her, and then said curiously, “Son, did you not say that your teacher will check on your progress in a week’s time? Why did he not summon you after so long?”
Little Modi played with the mini Golem in his hand and said angrily, “I do not know! How dare he play us for fools for so many days! Next time when I see him, I will teach him a lesson!”
Seeing that Moji and little Modi were having a chat, Davies, Sakaguchi Shouta, and the others showed their disapproval.
“Little Modi, King Zhou’s army has already made its way to just outside of the borders of the Infernals Nation. What should we do next?” One of the Infernals Nation’s higher-ups said to little Modi. When he called out Little Modi’s name, his eyes fell on Moji.
Little Modi was just a representation of the Infernal faction’s strength. The true person in charge had always been Moji.
Moji let out a soft smile and said, “Your primary task is to observe the movements of King Zhou’s army. All the members of the Infernals Nation are located all over Silvermoon. They are all making their way back to us. My guess is that a great war will descend upon us soon.”
“Is the World War beginning?” Someone mumbled.
“No, just a Defensive War. My guess is that King Zhou wants to attack and destroy all four nations before our completion. Then, the Shang Nation would have nothing to worry about anymore!”
Davies then asked in confusion, “Our completion rate has only reached 50%, and it’s going to be quite some time until we are completely ready. I don’t understand why King Zhou is attacking us at this time. Why is he gathering an army here so soon?”
Sakaguchi Shouta then continued and said, “Not only that, I have already received news that the Shang nation’s armies are also gathered near the Divines Nation, the Angels Nation, and the Shifters Nation. My guess is that King Zhou is going to do something big, we should be careful!”
Bang!
As soon as he finished speaking, little Modi stood up after he slammed on the table. Sakaguchi Shouta was shocked and looked at him cautiously as if he had said something wrong.
At this time, he was not sure what was happening to little Modi. He would keep on pulling in people to test his golems, and that had killed plenty of the Infernals. It would be weird if he was not afraid.
“No. I want to go find the Shifter Emperor. I have to teach him a lesson for leaving us for so many days!”
Little Modi immediately disappeared within the hall after he had said that. He did not care about the conversation between Sakaguchi Shouta and the others.
When Moji saw that little Modi had disappeared, she frowned as dread began to stir in her heart.
It felt as if her beloved things were going to disappear.

Divines Nation. As Xuanyuan Qi was not present, it was currently led by Johns.
Johns was very happy during this period because he could finally take control of the Divines Nation.
“Haha! Luckily I’m smart enough to not go into the Bottomless Pit. They must still be falling in the Bottomless Pit. I hope that they wouldn’t be able to escape!” Johns sat on the Divine Nation’s throne for the God-King, looking very pleased.
The person standing next to him was Eva, and he asked, “Young Master, the Divines Nation is surrounded by King Zhou’s army. Do you think we should recall all our players and NPCs? I’m worried…”
Johns cut her off and said, “What is there to be worried about? The Divines Nation’s completion rate has just reached 50%. Even if King Zhou wants to attack us, he can’t!”
***
Shifter Emperor’s Planet, Shifters Nation.
Within the Shifter Emperor’s City, Ling Feiyu was sitting on the throne in the great hall. Zhuge Liang was standing right beside her.
Zhuge Liang waved the fan in his hand and asked Yanhu, “Yanhu, did you set up everything that I wanted you to?”
Yanhu nodded. “I have finished setting up everything…”
“Daddy! Where is my teacher? He said that he will teach me after one week, but it is almost one month and he still hasn’t come back!” Heixue, who was standing next to Heifeng, said as he licked the chicken drumstick.
Heifeng stole the chicken drumstick from Heixue’s mouth, gave it a lick, then pushed it into his son’s mouth and yelled, “What are you talking about? Do you not see that we are having a meeting?”
“Hm! I’ll go look for Si-Si, little peacock, and the little dragon to have some fun!” Heixue walked out of the great hall and walked toward the little peacock, little dragon, and Si-Si waiting outside.
The little peacock and the little dragon both belonged to the Shifters faction. As they were Jiang Feng’s students, they had received special treatment from Zhuge Liang and were given permission to listen to them from outside of the great hall. As for Si-Si, she was the child of the Spirit Tribe. As the Inheritor of the Spirits had allied herself with the Shifters Nation, she would naturally be considered as part of the Shifters Nation.
Ling Feiyu, Xue Yingqi, and Zhuge Liang looked at Heixue’s father, Hei Feng. They could not help but wipe the cold sweat from their foreheads. Wherever these two were, they could always make others around them laugh!
“Strategist, from the way you see it, why did King Zhou suddenly gather his army around the Shifter Emperor’s planet?” Ling Feiyu asked Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang nodded. “I do not need to guess. He must have an ulterior motive. As the overlord of Silvermoon, he must have been given some privilege to be confident in defeating all the other four nations.”
“But the Shifter Emperor’s planet completion has only reached 50%, it would still need some time before completion. He should not be able to attack us, right?” Xue Yingqi asked.
Zhuge Liang shook his head with a smile and said, “King Zhou is an ambitious man. He would not do something that does not benefit him. He might have a way of fighting the four other nations, that is why we need to prepare the necessary protections so that the Shifter Emperor’s Planet would not be conquered!”
Ling Feiyu then said, “The strategist is right. Then, what should we do next?”
Zhuge Liang let out a confident smile and said, “Very easy. I will arrange a task for each of you. As soon as you finish them the Shifter Emperor’s Palace would be absolutely safe!”
Zhuge Liang had just finished saying that when a green dragon let out a dragon’s howl as he flew toward the great hall.
Once he was at the great hall, he polymorphed into a human as he landed, his face filled with nervousness as he said to Ling Feiyu, “Oh no… Oh no…! King Zhou’s army is attacking us!”
“Oh no… King Zhou’s army has also attacked the other three nations. They are fighting it tooth and nail!” At this time, a Shadow Beast gave itself form as he ran over and said to Ling Feiyu.
Once Zhuge Liang heard the green dragon and shadow beast’s reports, he then frowned. “I did not expect King Zhou to have a way to attack the other four nations, attacking us when we least expected it. Looks like you would not be able to complete the missions that I granted all of you before this. I will now show you the most efficient defense to stop the Shifter Emperor’s Planet from being conquered.”
Ling Feiyu stood up and said, “Strategist, the command is yours!”
Zhuge Liang nodded and said to all of those who were aligned with the Shifters faction, “Everyone, follow me. I will explain how to deal with this as we go!”
After he finished saying so, he quickly headed outside.
The higher-ups consisting of Ling Feiyu, Xue Yingqi, Heifeng, Yanhu, Xiao Lan, Xiao Miao, Xiao Yan, and Xiao Longnu all followed Zhuge Liang and left the great hall.
As Zhuge Liang was walking, he would point to certain people to do certain things. Those who had been called quickly flew in another direction.
The Defensive War was going to begin soon.
Whether they would be able to challenge King Zhou later would depend on them being able to defend during this Defensive War!
