Now, one might be wondering how the others were able to use the communication badges. After all, they were bound by Divine Sense and blood. If one didn't do that, they didn't work...or so the System Sect badges were made.

    However, for this plan of deception, Rean and Havek created a few badges that didn't need such a thing. First of all, the feature where it was bound was something they added after to keep the System Sect's communication system a secret.

    However, it was far from being a secret anymore, so why should they care about hiding it? Better yet, why not use the fact that it couldn't be hidden anymore to their advantage? There was definitely no lack of partic.i.p.ants in other regions that would love to get their hands on it and use the communication system to conquer the rest of the continent. All they needed... was to know it existed.

    Now then, what if the 'owners' of the communication badges just so happened to be the regions attacking Walfure? Naturally, the other regions beyond their borders couldn't leave them alone. It was even more perfect if they thought that Walfure was nothing more than a weak region. In Jutras and the other regions' eyes, the ten years the communication system was hidden was enough to put them on the backfoot.

    That was all possible thanks to the anti-cultivation suppression badges. That allowed Transition Realm beings from Walfure to ignore the cities of Crimew, Antifas, and the other surrounding regions as they flew straight to Jutras. Similar ones also brought Fosxin, Vana, Leonardo, and company to the other areas bordering the five regions attacking Walfure.

    They weren't the only ones, though. As seen in the meeting between Rean and Havek, they also got several of their Formation Masters to go together. Why? Because the badges needed antennas to send and receive signals. They could communicate with each other if they were close enough, but it was necessary to first make it look like communications wouldn't stop during the period of deception. That was also why concealment formations were necessary. They had to conceal the antennas. With the antennas being able to send signals tens of thousands of kilometers away, it was possible to build them without anyone noticing.

    Neither Rean nor Havek was afraid of the boundless badges being used against them later. They had made those badges in a way that they would stop working permanently after a month or so. The circuitry runes inside would break apart, and only the System Sect knew how to create Circuitry Rune Formations...or inscriptions, for that matter.

    Last but not least, Rean gave Luan's group his Light Element Gathering Equipment and taught them how to use the Light bending skill. With Roan's lessons on espionage, it didn't take long for them to take up the position of some relatively more important scouts in the regions they entered. Makeup, light bending, pretense... that was the key to fool those regions into thinking that they were in great danger and that Walfure would fall soon.

    Two weeks after the start of the war, Crimew was the first region to suddenly receive an urgent message from its border with the other regions.

    "Report! Jutras Region is sending its armies into our borders. They're coming from all sides!"

    Crimew's head disciple, Rhathio, was taken aback to hear that. "What?! That's impossible! They should have no reason to attack us. We purposely kept very small armies against their border to show that we had no intention to attack them at the moment!"

    In Legoqer Region, Kliwesk was just as shocked. "They should have much worse opponents to deal with at the moment. What the h.e.l.l are the Qitanda Region partic.i.p.ants thinking?!"

    His subordinate shook his head, replying, "Sir, Qitanda isn't the only one. Vresxiblae Region on our northeast border is charging forward as well!"

    "f.u.c.k this s.h.i.t!" Wigari suddenly shouted back in Invank Region. He was the great-grandson of the clan head and the leader of the partic.i.p.ants of the Yaskas Clan in Invank. "Those Cloberqi Region idiots should have aimed at Vrindias Region. Why the h.e.l.l are they coming at us?!"

    It took a few hours until the five regions understood that all of them were being attacked at once. Worse than that, they all thought that it was happening because they attacked Walfure.

    Well, they weren't wrong. Walfure was indeed the region that caused this issue. It's just that it wasn't for the reason they initially thought. In their heads, they believed the outer regions were attacking to take advantage of their full-scale attack against Walfure. Well, that couldn't be any wronger. Most of those regions didn't even know Walfure was being attacked until a few days ago. However, because they all thought these regions were allies with each other and had a communication system, they became enemies that they had to defeat. 

    Meanwhile, Roan continued to command the disciples and the armies within all the borders. As huge as the advantage of cultivation and equipment might have been, the five regions' numbers were still much higher. He had to do his best to reduce the losses as much as possible. 

    Rean, Havek, and everyone else also worked on the other sides of the war, like logistics, treatment, and things like that.

    It was during one of these days that Roan finally began to receive messages through the communication badges. The first one was the badge of Olly's country. 'Hey, Roan. The Crimew Region army attacking my cities on the border has begun to retreat at full speed.'

    Roan nodded. 'Just keep your position. There's no need to follow them.'

    'Are you sure?' Olly asked back. 'If we attacked them from behind now, we could incur quite a few severe losses before they exit Walfure.'

    Roan nodded, replying, 'Don't worry. We've already incurred enough losses during this last week or so. A little more or a little less will make no difference.'

    Soon, more of these messages arrived in the commanding center as Roan pa.s.sed exactly the same orders. However, he also warned everyone. 'Don't go anywhere, but prepare your armies to move out. The time to conquer the five regions around us isn't far away.'
