You discuss with Zhuang Fangyi how to respond to the Landbreaker assault.

Go straight for the Xiranite Dam...

The Sui Regulator has its ways. We must trust them and Arcane.

Then what's the bad news?

...or, more broadly, one to the entire Civilization Band.

We must stop her here.

You sound confident.

This time, we are in this together.

Where are the Array Cores?

There are three in total. Their coordinates have been synced to your terminals.

What about Nefarith? I don't think she's gonna sit back and watch!

Endmin, you are back.

I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?

I'd like you to reinforce the Tianshi Pillar Array Cores with Heavy Xiranite. It's an essential move to stop the Blight.

Wuling City is on its own.

The Landbreaker mobs are not much of a threat, but Nefarith commands the Blight itself. She can strike directly at the Xiranite Dam...

From this perspective, the Landbreaker leader is an inherent adversary to Wuling...

This time it's different from ten years ago.

Really? That's possible?!

If the Tianshi Pillar Array can hold back the Blight Tide ... her advance will be delayed.

And the Marker Stone contains enough Feranmut power to seal Ardashir. She won't dare take the risk with so much uncertainty.

Imagine this: the Endmin and Wuling Tianshi are on the battlefield, far from the Main Pillar ... then, what would be the best move for her?

Tianshi Zhuang, that is far too risky...!

Arcane, the Tianshi, you ... everyone is taking a risk. Why should I hold back...?

This place is the heart of the Main Pillar, the palace of Xiranite...

...and the most effective, most expensive trap I set for Nefarith.

See? She's taken the bait.

She's now near the Core AIC Area, trying to destroy the source of Xiranite ... just as I anticipated.

Time to unleash mayhem, Endmin. Show our enemies what you are capable of.
