MMORPG : Rise of the Interstellar God

CRONOS SYSTEM

Several million ships exited hyperspace at once.

The Orc landing fleet had arrived!

There were over six and a half million landing ships—that is, an invasion force of six hundred and fifty million soldiers.

Unlike warships, which were very expensive to manufacture, landing ships were far more basic. They were made up of only landing engines, and so were escorted by a warship which allowed them to move safely through both realspace and hyperspace.

The Orc Empire had managed to assemble a fleet of a thousand warships in such a short time! This was perhaps the most impressive detail of all. Not only would this force protect their landing fleet, but would also provide them with vital air support.

CRONOS I

Marshall Androf was in his bunker, along with the rest of his staff, when radar sensors beeped an alarm signaling the Orc fleet's presence!

"It begins," he muttered. "Inform the Chancellor immediately that the battle for Cronos I has begun."

One officer answered, "Marshall, it's too late! They have annihilated the system's space stations and communication relays! We are completely isolated!"

Meanwhile, the players who had joined the Federation camp were ecstatic! Today would be their first space war. Even if they lost, they would remember this day forever.

A GREAT CITY OF CRONOS I

A well-known player walked the streets, accompanied by a hundred other players.

It was Zelda from the Hyrule SuperGuild.

Hyrule had chosen to join the Federation because it didn't have enough means to send troops to the Orc Empire, let alone to buy massive numbers of ships as Renovatio Imperii or Lord of War did.

However, the investments of these two guilds had absolutely paid off. Today, they had become, without question, the two most powerful SuperGuilds in "Horus!"

Another SuperGuild had also chosen to join the Federation, the "Spartan" guild. It was very careful about whom it recruited, which allowed it to snatch up the best players of the seven SuperGuilds.

However, contrary to the other SuperGuilds, which already had recruited several million players each, Spartan had 'only' three hundred thousand members! Nevertheless, all of them were above lvl 20 and able to complete a dungeon on Hard difficulty! These players were led by the star player Zeus, a lvl 33 Sniper.

Everyone stared up at the sky, as if waiting for the descent of hell. The Goeils, the Federation soldiers, and the players were, at that moment, united in one goal: defending the planet.

Then every alarm on the planet rang out at once, and the players received a notification.

*********Solar System Announcement********

Notification: The battle for Cronos I between the Federation and the Orc Empire will now start. New rules have been set up for the players in this solar system:

Effect (1): All factionless players on Cronos I have been placed into the Federation faction with the mission of defending the planet.

Effect (2): All factionless players within the Cronos system, except for those on Cronos I, have been placed into the Orc Empire faction with the mission of attacking the planet.

Effect (3): All deaths will eliminate you from the event and send you to the respawn zone of your faction's capital.

Victory Condition: One faction holds 80% of the planet's cities for three days.

A few minutes after this notification, hundreds of millions of fireballs burst through the atmosphere! It was the millions of landing ships of the Orc Empire!

The battle for Cronos I had just begun.
