At this moment, a man with a white tiger head and four prominent canine teeth on his lips, sitting to Chris's left, spoke, "Then should we adjust our battle plan?"
Chris shook his head slightly, "The original plan remains unchanged, but we need to speed up. We must launch the attack before they are fully prepared."
"But, Chris, if the enemy is already on guard, our losses might increase," said a burly man covered in black monkey fur, resembling a chimpanzee.
Chris's gaze turned cold, and a strong oppressive aura emanated from his golden eyes, "Losses? For the birth of the New World, what are a few losses? We possess immense power and advanced technology; no one can stop us."
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned serious.
Chris looked at Hydra and asked, "Is there any way for Unicorn to transport Newborn City back to the real world earlier?"
Hydra shook his head expressionlessly, his black snake tongue licking his lips once. "No way. I've checked; the spatial magic array is already operating at full capacity, absorbing spatial magic power. This is still thanks to us being in a spatial turbulence, allowing us to absorb it faster. It will still take ten days for the core of the teleportation array to accumulate enough magic power to return to the real world."
After speaking, a strange, sinister smile suddenly appeared on Hydra's stiff, pale face. "However, I have a plan that could make our operation smoother."
Chris glanced at him expressionlessly. "Speak."
The gazes of the others all fell on Hydra.
Hydra's golden snake eyes glowed slightly as he looked at the only empty seat at the round table. "Alice, your spatial magic can resonate with Douglas's dark spell, right?"
In the only empty seat at the round table, a fist-sized, silver-white interwoven energy vortex appeared. The next second, a white-haired woman with a silver horn on her head, dressed in silver-white leather, jumped out of the vortex and sat steadily in the chair.
"How is your perception so terrifying? I just arrived." The unicorn woman, called Alice, glared at Hydra in annoyance, then looked at Douglas, the goat-horned man in a suit, and spoke softly, "Hydra, this petty man, sensed his clone being killed while helping in the laboratory, and immediately suggested that I ask you to write a restrictive spell."
"I can't shorten the time it takes for the teleportation array to accumulate energy, but I can open dozens of one-way teleportation gates in different locations."
"This way, even if the plan is exposed, we won't be trapped and surrounded in the Rhine Basin."
"And you need to help me write a spell prohibition on the spatial teleportation gate: 'Those over thirty years old are not allowed to pass through the teleportation gate.'"
"This way, even if someone can rewrite my teleportation gate and break in from the outside, they will only be younger Mages. Those old guys from the regular Guilds won't be able to do anything to us."
"No matter how strong the young Mages of the Fiore Kingdom are, they absolutely cannot be a match for us New Humans."
"We can hide in Newborn City and continuously send Orc Soldiers to the outside world through the spatial teleportation gates."
"We won't let Newborn City descend into the real world. I will hide Newborn City with spatial magic. This way, we will be invincible."
"Orc Soldiers are not troublesome to create. We will hide in Newborn City and use the Orcs to wear them down. When the time is right, we will come out and defeat them in one fell swoop."
When Alice finished speaking, everyone's faces lit up with excitement.
Chris's eyes unconsciously glowed with bright golden light, and a pressure emanated from him. His golden eyes looked at Alice, "Can your magic power create dozens of one-way teleportation gates?"
Alice smiled triumphantly, "Of course. With the magic energy collected by the spatial teleportation core over the past year, opening dozens of teleportation gates is a piece of cake."
Chris nodded in satisfaction, his gaze falling on the goat-horned man in the suit, "Douglas?"
The goat-horned man named Douglas stared with dark eyes, a faint black light emanating from his body. "The simpler the spell, the greater its effect. If it's just one spell, even a Ten Wizard Saints-level Mage would need several days to decipher it."
"And with just a few days, the Orc army will be enough to create a lot of chaos. By then, they will be supporting all over the place, and it will be too late for them to spare manpower to solve the spell."
Chris said in a deep voice, "Since that's the case, there's no time to lose. Let's act immediately."
"After the teleportation gates are opened, I will need you all to arrange people to properly command the Orc troops to avoid any mistakes."
Chris stood up, looked around at everyone present, his expression serious and his tone solemn, "For the New World!"
The other nine people all stood up, bowed slightly to Chris, and said in unison, "For the New World!"
...Crocus, the City of Flowers
The capital of the Fiore Kingdom, the Royal City.
At this moment, in the Royal City, a short man in a luxurious white robe was sitting on the throne, sighing.
Below the steps, a young girl in an emerald robe was kneeling.
"Father King, I have already contacted all the Magician Guilds within the Fiore Kingdom that could be reached."
"The various Magician Guilds have replied, stating that they will do their utmost to help the Fiore Kingdom defeat the enemies of the New World."
The young girl kneeling below had a serious expression, her tender face full of determination.
The white-robed King on the throne's expression softened slightly upon hearing this. He looked down and asked, "Emerald, where is the Royal Army now?"
"Replying to Father King, the Royal Army stationed in the west and south arrived at the Rhine Basin three days ago after receiving orders. The northern Royal Army has arrived to guard the Royal City, and the eastern Royal Army is currently en route to the Rhine Basin."
"They are expected to arrive at the Rhine Basin tonight."
The Princess named Emerald answered with a serious expression.
The King's expression softened slightly, and he then asked, "There is only one day left until the enemies from Newborn City appear. Have the people from those Magician Guilds all arrived at the Rhine Basin?"
Princess Emerald respectfully replied, "All members of Fairy Tail had already stationed themselves directly in the Rhine Basin the day after the Kingdom received the message."
"Most of Lamia Scale's Mages had already arrived at the Rhine Basin two days ago."
"The Guild Master of Four Headed Hound Guild arrived at the Rhine Basin yesterday with most of their Mages."
"The Guild Master of Blue Pegasus is piloting the magic airship Christina, which is currently hovering above the Rhine Basin, with all members on board."
"All the Council members of the Magic Council have been mobilized, leading their personnel to set up a large-scale defensive magic array in the Rhine Basin."
