Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms

"Are these great empires crazy? There must have been tens of millions of them exposed in the first wave alone."

Jia Xu said, feeling utterly exhausted.

"Who's crazy enough to have time to copy so many hymn fragments? There are hundreds of millions of pieces of information in there!"

"Could we have fallen for their trap? Are they deliberately setting up a massive minefield to slow down our development?" Chen Gong was also exhausted.

Almost all the available sages were brought together for a mental link, and then brainstormed to determine the approximate locations of most of the hymn fragments.

"Wasn't this thing broken by Xiang Shaoyu? How come there are so many overlapping layers?"

The strategists were somewhat disheartened. They had determined the location of most of the hymn fragments, but there were still many fragments remaining, especially given the differences in the Imperial Will.

These things might end up falling on the remaining resistance forces and the wild beasts in the deep mountains and forests.

"Organize manpower and mobilize all troops stationed in various regions to conduct thorough patrols and eliminate potential hazards within a radius of 100 miles of their residences!"

Zhuge Liang looked at the report in his hand and couldn't help but rub his temples. They couldn't be sure if the landing point they determined based on the direction of the streaking light was real.

The further back in time you go, the worse the accuracy becomes, and the probability of problems occurring is almost a certainty.

However, they simply didn't have enough manpower to deal with this potential threat.

"I suffered a loss without being able to speak out!"

Zhuge Liang also began to suspect that they might have been plotted against.

It may seem that they ruined the other party's plans, but in reality, the trouble they caused was more serious than that caused the former.

Uncontrollable unrest may occur in some areas.

"So, we have to clear out the wild animals in the territory again?" Mu Yi instantly understood the work they needed to do in the next stage.

Mu Yi was somewhat annoyed by this. They had been working tirelessly to eliminate wild animals within their territory, and one of the most important training programs for new recruits in various places was to kill wild animals within the territory.

These days, there are no protected animals anymore. Wild animals are just walking meals. The existence of the essence of heaven and earth has made the reproduction of many animals a disaster.

In an environment brimming with the essence of heaven and earth, many animals have truly achieved a level of survival where they can live by breathing.

So you never know where a bunch of creatures will suddenly appear, hiding there and multiplying.

Whether it's jackals, tigers, leopards, or birds and sea beasts, their numbers are so numerous that it's almost annoying. There have even been instances where people standing on city walls could see tigers and leopards hunting in the fields. These days, wild beasts are just that rampant.

Therefore, strangling wild beasts has always been a very important training exercise for local militia. Wild beasts are nothing, just kill them and eat them!
However, this time the situation is a bit more complicated. These fragments of sacred songs might just give birth to a batch of intelligent monsters.

The way these monsters are dealt with may cause domestic turmoil. After all, there are quite a few monsters in Xinghan, and improper handling may cause unnecessary infighting.

"Pass on my order: mobilize Gan Ning to lead the entire air force to sweep this up, and also mobilize the White Horse Cavalry!" After a moment's thought, Mu Yi issued a military order.

"The first sweep will last for seven days. The second will contact the African monster tribes and ask them to send people to surrender. The third will continue the sweep for a month to ensure that there is no danger within the city limits."

"Your Majesty is wise!" Zhuge Liang and the others echoed.

Faced with this situation, the army is indeed somewhat stretched thin, while the air force is relatively more free.

"Could we try to capture these mutated creatures? After observing them, we might be able to find some clues!" Jia Xu said after a moment of silence.

"You want to conduct experiments on human bodies?" Upon hearing this, Zhuge Liang almost instantly realized what Jia Xu meant.

“Yes, if we can extract the corroded parts from these things, it might be a good help in training our middle and lower-ranking officers.” Jia Xu did not deny it.

In his view, this was indeed an opportunity. As for human experimentation, there were death row inmates and prisoners of war, and these people should be put to use in times like these.

"We can give it a try. There are many suspicious points in this incident. If we conduct more research, we may be able to find the mastermind behind it."

Chen Gong's mind worked quickly. He had basically figured it out: if these hymn fragments could be used, then they would have to increase their research on hymns in the future.

If it's truly valuable, they will definitely not be polite.

As for human experimentation, it's nothing to these people who have emerged from mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

"Gongtai, you handle this matter. I have gambling matters to attend to!" Seeing this, Jia Xu directly pushed the task onto Chen Gong.

Chen Gong was stunned for a moment, his lips twitching slightly. He hadn't expected to be defeated in such a place.

"Alright, I'll leave this matter to you, Gongtai. Be careful with your actions, and I'll send someone to verify the specific information!"

Mu Yi nodded and assigned the task to Chen Gong. Jia Xu's reasoning was indeed reasonable and well-founded.

"Haha, Gongtai Wuyou, once things are settled here, I will definitely come to help you!" Jia Xu said with a smile, patting Chen Gong on the shoulder.

The fragments of the hymn rose from the small world and were scattered across almost the entire planet. Even though the Star River tried its best to intercept them, tens of thousands of fragments still fell into the deep mountains and forests and the vast oceans.

Among the species favored, the most were weasels, hedgehogs, snakes, foxes, and rats, which were closely related to the will of the Qing Dynasty.

The remaining category consists of things related to the concept of a war god's incarnation, such as wild boars, white horses, and goats. There were even a few teenagers who unconsciously fused together fragments of sacred songs.

For mentally sound adults, being possessed by hymn fragments doesn't have much of an impact; even if they can't resolve the issue, seeking help from the authorities can solve it.

However, it is far too dangerous for a teenager. If he unconsciously merges with or fully accepts the concept, his mental form will directly transform him from mind to body. Information will also be absorbed and replicated at the information level based on the concepts in the hymn fragments.

In layman's terms, it means that it will develop towards the complete form of a sacred song, with each element devouring and merging with the others, ultimately resulting in the awakening of the sacred song.

These hymn fragments are merely fragments of power, and it's almost impossible for them to summon the hymns, but someone has added a lot of things to them.

In other words, as long as these fragments can be fused, information can be directly replicated. Even if it can only replicate a level below a certain limit, it is still terrifying.

Compared to humans, who possess a certain degree of rational thinking and a worldview sufficient to resist such distortion, most animals simply do not have this kind of thing. Once infected, they will inevitably be distorted.

However, compared to humans, it is a better thing for humans to be distorted than for animals to be distorted.

The only problem is that after receiving this information, whether one becomes enlightened or not, the impact of the information will lead to an increase in the beast's aggression.

After all, anyone who is carefree at the time will become irritable when their mind is filled with all sorts of things.

Once aggression intensifies, certain fragile balances will be immediately disrupted.

"How is Huang Tianji doing now?"

When Mu Yi returned to the government office, Huang Tianji had already learned most of the situation through the magic network.

"Following the anomaly, various territories within the Qing court's world have experienced anomalies of varying degrees, which are expected to trigger a large-scale beast plague within three to seven days!"

After summarizing the information, Huang Tianji immediately gave her conclusion. Mu Yi nodded, still somewhat uneasy.

"Dispatch a legion of Imperial Guard rank to quickly scout Shanglin Garden and determine whether the wild animals near Luoyang will be affected."

Although it is unlikely to affect the local area, it is always good to be cautious.

Luoyang is the center of the Milky Way; absolutely no trouble can be allowed to occur there.

"Given the current situation, the best course of action is to mobilize one million new recruits and militiamen to sweep through the Qing Dynasty world. Kill any animal that is aggressive, no matter what it is!"

Huang Tianji offered a highly efficient plan, the only problem being the mobilization of a million-strong army, which was no easy task and required someone to command it for it to move freely.

Even when acting separately, it requires many officers and corps to act as intermediaries to ensure smooth coordination.

Of course, the biggest problem is that these new recruits and militiamen will likely suffer considerable losses if they encounter a beast tide.

It's efficient, but if large-scale losses occur, then it's putting the cart before the horse.

After all, their goal in dealing with the beast tide was simply to reduce casualties.

"What is the status of the large ranch that the Qing court has invested in building?" After pondering for a moment, Mu Yi still came to the northern part of the Qing court, which was currently facing serious problems.

"There is no impact whatsoever. It seems to be unharmed due to the protection of the Empire's will!" Huang Tianji replied after checking the following information.

"I always feel a little uneasy!" Mu Yi rubbed his temples, feeling an instinctive unease without any evidence.

This whole thing was really unexpected, and I don't know when it will be completely resolved and come to an end.

The strategists had already considered this before. The inland areas of the Qing court had been governed by the Qing court before, and with the help of creatures like demons and immortals, the wild beasts inside must have been killed countless times. Even if there were omissions, there shouldn't be too many.

But in the northern border region...

The Qing dynasty was a nomadic people, with a small population and a large number of wild animals. In many places, they used a free-range approach to grazing. Even after they took over, the number of wild animals was still outrageous.

If unrest breaks out, it must be forcibly suppressed before it escalates into a situation like that in Africa.

"Let all levels of counties and prefectures in the Qing court world mobilize their armed forces and begin the cleanup directly."

After pondering for a moment, Mu Yi issued a direct order.

To be honest, this order was actually very dangerous, especially when it was given on land that had just been conquered.

After all, once local authorities gain military power, they are bound to develop ambitions.

This was something that could not be avoided, but fortunately they had just conquered the Qing court.

In this way, even if those local powerful families had this opportunity, they would be wary.

After all, the Qing Dynasty was crushed by Xing Han, so even if they wanted to establish a separatist regime, it was just a beautiful dream.

Even if Xinghan handed the knife to these people, they wouldn't make a move, because they had already been made an example of.

They have ambitions, but they will never let them escalate.

Because might makes right, and they held the stars in awe.

"Should we also open up some of the armed forces to the civilians?" Huang Tianji asked for further confirmation.

In reality, almost every household had weapons. This was a legacy of history. Especially in times of martial spirit, almost every adult male had received militia training and was proficient in using various weapons.

“Apart from crossbows, armor and long weapons can be distributed to the people,” Mu Yi said slowly.

These days, having a suit of armor isn't considered a threat.

The real threat comes from internal energy cultivation. All beings in the Star River capable of using internal energy are registered with Huang Tianji.

In a sense, internal energy cultivation is replacing crossbows and armor, so there is no problem even if armor is issued.

This reflects Mu Yi's confidence in his rule, and it is also the best way to deal with a possible beast tide.

Even if some problems arise, they will definitely not outweigh the chain reaction caused by the beast tide.

Therefore, Mu Yi decisively opened up military preparedness, directly calling on the entire population to become soldiers in preparation for the possible beast tide.

The past few days have been unusually calm, with only a few sporadic incidents of wild animals viciously injuring people.

On the fifth day, the situation suddenly changed dramatically, with beast tides breaking out in the coastal and northern Xinjiang regions almost simultaneously.

"Have you found out the cause?" Mu Yi looked at the effects transmitted through the light and shadow, his expression grim.

Especially in the coastal areas, tens of thousands of sea monsters stirred up waves and began to attack the ports along the coast.

"It must be a curse upon us!"

"We ruined their chance to return, so their fragments contain hatred towards us!"

"No wonder nothing fell into the hands of the people protected by the Empire's will before!"

Mu Yi understood the situation, but it was worse than before.

A beast tide with a specific goal is completely different from a beast tide without a specific goal.

Especially when dealing with a sea monster leader who seems to have some kind of command.

Huang Tianji tried to soothe him, but all she felt was intense hatred.

These sea beasts have been completely possessed by the fragments of the hymn, and after being twisted, they are left with only the desire for destruction and attack, and the Star River is their primary target.

"Resistance is underway in various regions, but thanks to our prior arrangements, the problems have been contained to a minimum!"

"Except for the large number of marine mammals in coastal areas, the area around most cities in the country has been cleared."

Jiang Wei, one of the Qing court's chief commanders, reported his work to Mu Yi.

"Well done. Let's cheer them up. This beast tide will probably last for a while."

"After this battle is over, I will promote and ennoble all of you."

Mu Yi was satisfied with Jiang Wei's report. After giving a few instructions, he turned and left. The sea creatures were too troublesome; he needed to find some capable henchmen. (End of Chapter)
