Chapter 2289 – 2289. God’S Atlantis
“Oh, right. With Britain’s help, we recently completed a world map. Let me show you.”
Samuel brought over a piece of paper and showed it to me.
It was a world map. The quality was nothing compared to modern maps, but the shapes of the continents and the borders of the civilizations that controlled them were roughly drawn.
There was only one continent. A U-shaped continent, like an arch turned upside down. The Super-United States was in the west, and at the very top, the Soviets were blocking the path between the continents.
On the eastern continent, five civilizations shared borders. The Helten civilization was the furthest west. It was the smallest in size.
To the west, quite a distance away, was a fairly large island. Great Britain.
‘The world isn’t as big as I thought. It’s similar to China in reality… or maybe a little bigger?’
It was obvious that the planet was round. That’s how Britain discovered the eastern continent.
The five civilizations of the eastern continent. Their names were Helten, Urk, Justia, China, and Islam.
“The strongest ones are China and Islam, I guess.”
Their territories were the largest.
“Huh? No. The strongest in the eastern continent is Urk. They’re ahead in terms of technology and culture. Then it would be China and Islam.”
“What have you been doing all this time? You’re a sage.”
“The sage is just a title. And I don’t have the ability to be a leader.”
“That doesn’t sound like something the boss of Helten would say.”
“Helten is maintained by a rather unique structure. If you look at the structure, it’s closer to a cell organization.”
“What about White?”
When we entered area 7,500, there were three of us. Me, Samuel, and White. Looking at the map, there wasn’t a place that seemed to be White’s civilization.
“He’s out. He probably dropped out very early on. White is just not suited for this kind of thing. You’re our only hope.”
“Me? What about you?”
“I’m the weakest civilization on the eastern continent. It wasn’t good that I fought early on. The war turned into a long one. And it was also bad luck that Urk was right next to me. The current Helten civilization is almost subordinate to Urk. If they see an opening, Urk will probably conquer us. So, before I get conquered, I focused on getting information about the hidden boss, Tiamat.”
“The fact that you contacted me means you got the information.”
“That’s right. I’m definitely going to drop out of this race… but you, on the other hand, have the highest chance of winning. So, I’ll leave it to you. There was a legend on an island that Tiamat will awaken in the year 500 and bring an end to everything.”
“It sounds more like a warning not to dawdle than a legend.”
“It could also be a warning. If you think about it the other way, it means you have 50 turns to deal with Tiamat. You’re the only one I can trust, Cheonma.”
“It doesn’t feel good to hear that from a guy.”
“Please. I’ll give you all the information about the eastern continent.”
I talked with Samuel for a long time. I was mostly on the receiving end. I was able to hear things like the true names of the eastern continent.
“The international union that Britain is providing. It’s unlikely to be formed. The eastern continent doesn’t trust Britain. Information about the Super-United States has spread, but they’re optimistic because the Soviets are in the north.”
“I’ll destroy and conquer the Soviets soon.”
“Then the eastern continent will be wary of you too. Before that, I’ll start a war in the eastern continent. I’ll drop out… but the war will spread like wildfire, so it’ll cause some damage to the eastern continent civilizations.”

Year 244.
Immediately after the non-aggression pact was broken, the 1 million-strong army of the Super-United States advanced into the United States. They were shocked by the state of the United States.
The United States was fighting among themselves. Black smoke billowed from all over the city, and the shouts of men and women echoed in the square.
The Super-United States army heard the noise and headed to the square. In the square, men and women were facing each other. They each held weapons in their hands.
“Act like a woman, you woman! Don’t you dare try to rise up just because you’re a woman!!”
“We are not livestock! We are not machines for pregnancy! We are not toys for men!! Remember that the mother who gave birth to you is a woman!”
“You bitch, even so, giving women the right to vote? That’s crossing the line! Men have done everything so far! Labor is also the right of men! Women should stay home and raise children quietly! That’s a woman’s duty!”
“The United States is a country of free democracy! So why do only men enjoy freedom!!”
“The clothes you’re wearing! The shoes you’re wearing! The food you’re eating! All of that was bought with our men’s money! You can’t live without men!”
“You don’t give us jobs! Women can work too!”
Their argument stopped only when they discovered the Super-United States army. The men hesitated, and the women’s faces brightened. The American women cheered.
“It’s the Super-United States! The army of the Super-United States ruled by women! They’ve come to save us!”
“Th-this…. The Soviet Red Army was supposed to come and save us…. Why the Super-United States….”
“We are the women’s liberation army! We have come to liberate women oppressed by men! Subdue the men!”
The leader of the women’s liberation army shouted. The soldiers grinned at the men. Their vaginas were already trembling at the thought of taking the men.
“Aaaaaaah!”
The men screamed. That was all they could do. The women of the women’s liberation army were all well-trained warriors who had learned martial arts. On the other hand, the men were just laborers.
The men were no longer laborers. They were now slaves.

Bang! Bang! Bang!
The roar of cannons echoed from the US border.
The Super-United States army and the Soviet Red Army had clashed at the border. Every time the cannons fired, Super-United States soldiers died. But they were not afraid. They advanced, as if defying death, even as they were hit by a barrage of shells.
It was the Red Army, armed with muskets, that felt fear.
“What the hell are those bitches! More than 200,000 have already died, why don’t they stop?!”
“Commander! We’re running out of gunpowder!”
“Cannon number 57 is broken!”
“Shells! Bring the shells!!”
“Are those muskets just for show? Kill those damn bitches!!”
More than 500,000 Super-United States soldiers had died. It was a loss that would have been enough to retreat. But the Super-United States soldiers did not retreat.
“Dying on the battlefield is an honor!”
“What are you going to do if you run away? Life is about living it up!”
“There aren’t any cowards who are afraid of death, right?”
They were not afraid of death. That’s how they were raised. And there was also the effect of the drugs they received before the battle.
Soon, the Red Army ran out of gunpowder. The Red Army had to fight with swords. Their individual abilities were no match for them. A one-sided battle, the opposite of what it had been just a moment ago, unfolded.
“Those ghost-like bitches…. Those bitches with no parents….”
Their insults didn’t work on them. It was true that they had no parents.
“Suck my dick, you dickhead!”
Because that’s how they get taken.

「10 years have been skipped.」
「Year 250.」
「You have acquired 1 civilization point!」
「You have acquired 17 civilization points as interest!」
「Current civilization points: 195」
「Current population: 35,202,301」
The full-scale war with the Soviets had begun.
The first battle was my defeat. The 1 million-strong army crossed the Soviet border, but was annihilated by the Red Army that came later. I didn’t care. There were too many people to be sad about just 1 million deaths.
“Keep expanding the hatcheries. Order the priests to continue human sacrifices of the slave men. This time, send 3 million troops. Fight on the entire Soviet border. It will be more helpful to fight scattered since the enemies have cannons and muskets.”
If a guerrilla war that utilizes individual capabilities is waged, it will be terrible.
“Your Excellency. The priest emperor is preparing a rebellion. It seems he has been smuggling out slave men and raising an army. The rebels are estimated to be about 350,000.”
“Rebellion when I was just being merciful? Teach that ignorant fool a lesson.”
“Your Excellency. Recently, many of the Dongtan female council members have collapsed during work.”
“…It’s not overwork, is it?”
“It’s not overwork since the administrative power has improved a lot. The priests say it’s a curse.”
“Is it the priests’ doing?”
“There is no clear evidence.”
Montezuma knows the inside story of the Super-United States quite well. He also knows that the center of the Super-United States is the Dongtan Women’s Council.
Suddenly, the air ripples. A black aura appears and clings to me. I knew instinctively. This was a curse that Montezuma had cast by sacrificing tens of thousands of people.
My strength instantly left my body. Just before I collapsed to the floor from the curse, the curse bounced off my body.
「Good Fortune (EX) is activated.」
「The entire universe is helping you!」
「Good Fortune (EX) will be deactivated for a while.」
I frowned.
Curses are no threat to me. I have Heavenly Heart and Full Recovery. Even if I die from a curse, I can just revive with Full Recovery.
‘What a waste of Good Fortune.’
「You have killed the priest emperor, the leader of the Aztec civilization!」
「One of the participants has dropped out! Current participants: 8」
「You have killed Suigong, the leader of the Justia civilization!」
「One of the participants has dropped out! Current participants: 7」
“Did the curse go back and kill Montezuma? But two people?”
Perhaps due to the influence of Good Fortune, one more person died. Looking at the system message, it was clear that they died from the curse.
‘Lucky.’
Since Good Fortune had activated, it couldn’t be bad.
‘But Suigong? Is that Suigong, one of the Imperial Five?’
Well, there’s no rule that people from the continent can’t participate in the conquest, so it’s not surprising.
