RUN AWAY, THIS CIVILIZATION IS CHEATING!

Chapter 526: Chapter 399: The Counterattack Begins!_2

Qiuyue’s words had been clear.

The operation required Shen Hao’s strength to be set aside.

Unless a major unexpected change occurred that wasn’t accounted for in the battle plan, Shen Hao would not take action.

This also meant that the burden on their shoulders had suddenly become much heavier than estimated.

But what could possibly make the great Emperor refrain from participating in such a crucial battle?

However, no one asked; this was merely a notification, not a request for their opinions.

“If the Emperor doesn’t take action, I can at most only restrain two Demon Lords,” the Holy Spirit spoke first. Members of the Contracted Spirit Clan were among the tallest in the Human Civilization System, and the Holy Spirit was especially tall. Although he was sitting in a lower seat, he appeared nearly as tall as Qiuyue, who was seated in the highest place.

After looking around, he asked, “How should we deal with the other Demon Lord?”

A moment of silence fell over the meeting.

Demon Lords, the most powerful combat units among the Weird Demons!

Even though these were only “Pseudo Demon Lords,” their strength still far surpassed that of ordinary Late Stage Sixth Rank Weird Demons.

Among those present, only the Holy Spirit, who was also at the Late Stage Sixth Rank and possessed a Red Mythical Talent along with combat-type abilities, had the power to directly suppress a Demon Lord.

The others, even with the power bestowed by Shen Hao, would find it difficult to achieve this.

Liu Ruoxi had managed to hold out against a Demon Lord previously only because that Demon Lord had dispersed its strength among other Weird Demons.

Therefore, even just one remaining Demon Lord posed an enormous threat,

not to mention the staggering number of other Sixth Rank Weird Demons.

But although the situation was thorny, it wasn’t without solutions.

Zhuang Zhigao spoke up.

“If I am to establish a Great Formation, gathering the power of everyone present here, it wouldn’t just be one Demon Lord—we could suppress that Demon Lord along with all other Sixth Rank Weird Demons. I am confident of that.”

Suddenly, everyone’s gaze converged on Zhuang Zhigao.

Zhuang Zhigao’s demeanor within civilization, compared to his conduct in front of other civilizations, was a completely different matter.

Within his own civilization, he mostly appeared detached, not wanting to concern himself with much, simply immersing in his own world of Formations. But when outside, as the second possessor of a Red Mythical Talent within Human Civilization and the top genius of the new generation, Zhuang Zhigao would still show his due elegance.

Not only was his tone filled with absolute confidence at this moment, but he also faced the gazes of others without evasion, looking around calmly and displaying his confidence to its fullest.

This was naturally effective.

If an ordinary person had made such a declaration, these rulers, who held crucial positions within their respective civilizations, would likely find it impossible to trust.

But Zhuang Zhigao, with his Red Mythical Talent, possessed the potential to make good on his word.

Perhaps after one or two more worlds, no one else present from the other civilizations, aside from the Holy Spirit, would be qualified to sit at the same table with him. That, too, was a possibility.

Such was the weight of a Red Mythical Talent!

“So, the basis of the battle plan is straightforward,” Qiuyue spoke at this moment, “The Holy Spirit will fight alone; everyone else, including me, will be under the command of General Zhuang. The army must also remain in sync with General Zhuang. Our objective is to sweep the entire region before the other Demon Lords arrive to reinforce and firmly secure it, establishing defenses, to drive a wedge into the enemy’s heart, and to use this as a center for a subsequent counter-offensive.”

The latter part of the statement was already known to everyone.

But Qiuyue officially stating it in such a setting signified a supreme military order.

Every Affiliated Civilization, regardless of status, had to comply!

However, everyone just waited solemnly for Qiuyue to finish speaking before quickly diving into the discussion of the specific plan.

What Qiuyue had mentioned was merely the foundation of the plan.

But, involving so many powerful individuals and such a vast Legion, the actual conduct of operations naturally wouldn’t be so simple.

However, it was extremely tedious.

Precise orders had to be delivered into the hands of every team leader below.

Yet such a cumbersome plan was completed entirely within just four to five days.

It wasn’t that it couldn’t have taken longer, but there was concern about being detected by the enemy.

On the intelligence front, we even caught a Weird Demon of the Late Stage Sixth Stage!!

Realizing that time waits for no one, Qiuyue immediately issued the command, and the plan was put into action!

In an instant, the operation system with enormous computational capacity sprang into action, issuing orders to all legions in this region, including the surrounding areas.

The new generation’s first genius, Liu Shuanglian, was at this very moment also participating in this operation as the leader of an elite squadron.

Although she was Human Civilization’s first-born genius with an Innate Taoist Body, her talent was actually not top-tier, and to this day, she had not caught up with a few of her peers who had even stronger talent, not to mention those who had shown astounding brilliance in earlier trials, thus having received considerable attention and support from her elders.

But her strength was certainly not weak.

She had already reached Level 50 and was just one level away from the Sixth Rank.

And the elite squadron she led was a top-tier squad that gathered over a hundred thousand warriors of the Fifth Order!

That’s right, the weakest were of the Fifth Order.

“After this battle, once I receive military merit, I’ll go back and apply for seclusion to break through!” Liu Shuanglian looked at the orders transmitted to her personal terminal, her face still as cold as ever, but her heart surged with real passion.

As the first genius born, she had actually garnered more attention than her abilities warranted.

Especially from the great Emperor.

On the day she was born, the great Emperor himself had personally calmed the atmospheric anomalies and had used her as the precedent to establish the cultivation method for all newborn geniuses.

As a result, for a long time afterwards, Liu Shuanglian drew gazes from various places, becoming a rather unique figure.

Until, more outstanding geniuses appeared one after another.

Liu Shuanglian was still under scrutiny, but she was no longer that most unique one.

“Many ordinary-talented individuals can go far and become strong, and I, with talent, how can I be confined by talent!” Liu Shuanglian clenched her fist slightly.

Since her talent could no longer garner the great Emperor’s attention as before, she would rely on ability, on military merit!

Liu Shuanglian’s goal was to be the strongest under the Emperor!

Even if it meant surpassing the Holy Spirit with Red Mythical Talent, she had the ambition to do so.

“Gentlemen!” She turned around, looking at the orderly rows of a hundred thousand passionate warriors behind her, her voice rolling forth, clearly reaching everyone’s ears, “We are one of the strongest squadrons, and the task given to us is the most severe, the most dangerous, but if it were not so, how could we demonstrate our power! It’s time to remove ‘one of’ from our team’s name!”

What kind of General can lead what kind of subordinates.

Liu Shuanglian made no secret of her ambition and goals in normal times.

Everyone knew she might appear cold on the outside, but her heart was incredibly passionate.

Under the leadership of such a squad commander, the demeanor of the entire squadron was the same.

Their strength might not be the strongest, but they possessed the goal, the ambition to become the strongest.

In such a fervent fighting spirit, if they were really given an ordinary task, they would be reluctant to accept it.

Not to mention, after large-scale publicity, everyone understood the significance of this war.

At least in this trial, this war would definitely go down in history!

And who wouldn’t want to have their name recorded in it?

Even if it was just the squad number, it would be the highest honor for a warrior.
