Shangjing.
Inside a eting room.
This is a high-level eting with more than a hundred attendees, including five Emperors and over fifty Kings.
The eting has been going on for an hour, and the atmosphere is becoming increasingly heavy.
Ahead, a giant light curtain is displaying scene after scene of bloodshed, causing many to frown slightly.
Even though they are accustod to life and death, these brutal scenes still make them uncomfortable.
At this mont, the entire nation is captivated by the King Plan, cheering and shouting for their favorite contestants, but who can imagine that the battles within the Space Gates are so fierce.
The scenes continue to play, and at this mont, a neutral voice is heard:
"The Land of Chaos has closed, the Alien Race suffered significant losses, so they have been quiet for a while. However, these losses did not hurt them fundantally, and recently they have beco active again, clearly not planning to let the King Plan proceed smoothly. Within the last month, seven Satellite Cities were besieged by Demon Beast hordes, and within three months, 71 Space Gates were forcefully sealed by the Alien Race with military fortresses established. Look at the locations of these Space Gates, marked as red dots."
The light curtain switches to a map of Hua Country.
The 71 Space Gates are marked with red dots.
These red dots appear scattered with no obvious pattern but uniformly appear within and around the Satellite Cities, effectively encircling half of the nation’s Satellite Cities.
"The failure of the last Land of Chaos rge has caused the Alien Race to change tactics, no longer concentrating their attacks, but spreading out, and this ti they plan to target the Satellite Cities."
The neutral voice continues.
As soon as these words fall, a female Guardian in a gray combat suit stands up and quickly asks:
"Satellite Cities lack Guardian Divine Artifacts, and their defense and combat abilities are far inferior to Base Cities. However, precisely because of this, the Space Gates nearby can be forcibly closed without overly worrying about the chain reaction of space collapse! Even if the Space Gate is within the city, residents can be evacuated in advance, doesn’t the Alien Race know this?"
"Of course they know! Haven’t you noticed yet?"
Soone laughs, though the voice carries coldness and concern:
"One or a few Satellite Cities can evacuate in advance and hold out, but with these 71 Space Gates covering 18 Satellite Cities, if attacked simultaneously, where will the residents evacuate to?"
The female Guardian opens her mouth as if to say sothing, but ultimately falls silent.
Yang Qingtian sits in his chair, looking at the layout on the light curtain with a grave expression.
The Alien Race’s plan is evident.
This ti their target is not the Base Cities but the Satellite Cities.
Base Cities have Guardian Divine Artifacts, stationed troops, and the presence of various Guardians and Emperors, making them extrely difficult for the Alien Race to conquer.
The Satellite Cities, however, are much easier.
Previously, there was the deterrence of hot weapons; if a Satellite City couldn’t hold on, the residents could be evacuated, and then a large number of missiles could be used to bomb and forcibly close the Space Gates.
For this reason, the Alien Race wouldn’t attack the Satellite Cities directly, using tactics to drive Demon Beast hordes to siege them instead.
But if a large number of Satellite Cities are attacked simultaneously, how many personnel can be sent for support?
Manpower is a significant issue.
Next is how to evacuate the residents?
One must know that outside the cities, countless Demon Beasts are eyeing them. Not to ntion ordinary residents, even Advanced Martial Artists and Advanced Demon Spirit Masters may not be able to protect themselves.
Without a massive army and powerhouses to guard them, billions of residents would only beco snacks for Demon Beasts.
"The Alien Race really understands human psychology!"
Among the five Emperors sitting in the front is Hong Tao, who speaks calmly and faintly.
From a broader perspective, even if all the Satellite Cities are conquered, it doesn’t drastically impact the situation.
At most, it ans so resources and Demon Spirits can’t be obtained.
In peaceful tis, there would certainly be an impact in the long term, but during warti, who has the ti and energy to enter Space Gates to hunt Demon Beasts?
In his view, the disappearance of 36 Satellite Cities might not be a bad thing.
In so ways, it’s actually beneficial!
Without Satellite Cities, they could bomb without reservation, closing many Space Gates, concentrating military power, and returning to Base Cities.
If the Space Gates are bombed shut, the Alien Race would suffer greater losses.
This could weaken the Alien Race’s power.
But undoubtedly, this would sacrifice more than three hundred million Satellite City residents.
As war approaches, these over three hundred million residents wouldn’t contribute much, and might even disperse military strength.
Even though they are of no use, they can’t be allowed to be slaughtered, as that would affect public morale and spirit.
If public morale and spirit are lost, there’s no point in fighting the war.
This is far more serious than the fusion of the Land of Chaos.
The Alien Race’s plan is indeed smart, putting them in a difficult position.
"Indeed, the Alien Race didn’t operate like this before; it seems soone is advising them!"
An elder speaks.
His na is Liu Yuan, like Hong Tao, he is an Extraordinary Powerhouse.
"Now we shouldn’t concern ourselves with so much, thinking too much is aningless. The most important thing now is the King Plan! If the plan succeeds, within five years, Hua Country could have at least fifty more Kings, which could share so of the burden."
"Tonight, 34 slots will be determined, and a week later, the remaining 34 slots will also be confird. Half a month later, the King Plan will begin; nothing should go wrong during this ti."
People are discussing things vehently, but facing the Alien Race’s invasion plan, they have no imdiate solution.
"There’s one more piece of news, Zhou Chengfeng has returned, now already back in Shangjing."
The neutral voice echoes.
Many display confused expressions, clearly unaware of who this person is.
But those who know burst into exclamations.
Zhou Chengfeng, with the most powerful mind, possesses only Ninth Grade strength but has a status no lower than an Emperor, possibly even higher.
"Who is Zhou Chengfeng?"
"Elder Zhou has returned?"
"How is Elder Zhou?"
"Who rescued Elder Zhou so heroically?"
"Were those rare Demon Spirits gathered to rescue Elder Zhou? I was wondering why so many Demon Spirits were collected."
Zhou Chengfeng’s return is absolutely fantastic news.
His value is comparable to that of an entire army.
"Elder Zhou is fine, Lin Feng’s team went to rescue him."
Facing everyone’s confusion, the neutral voice spoke, without much explanation.
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s team, the people present were slightly taken aback.
No one expected it to be Lin Feng’s team that successfully rescued Elder Zhou, even Hong Tao was sowhat surprised.
He knew about this mission but didn’t expect it to actually succeed.
It’s important to know that the previous five rescue teams were much more luxurious than Lin Feng’s team, yet they nearly suffered total defeat.
This Lin Feng’s team really continues to exceed his expectations.
It’s a pity that these geniuses haven’t fully matured yet and the war is about to co.
If they had ten years, even he might have to take them seriously.
Hong Tao had many doubts, such as the rescue process and whether that old undead had appeared?
Is he alive or dead now?
"Lin Feng’s team!"
Upon hearing this familiar na, Yang Qingtian and Yang Qing’s expressions subtly changed; they didn’t expect to hear the na in such a setting.
Nor did they expect Lin Feng to be involved in such a mission.
A complex emotion rose in their hearts.
They could feel many people around watching them, those gazes filled with mockery and ridicule.
"Haha."
Soone even deliberately let out a light laugh.
Yang Qingtian followed the laughter to see and it was a white-browed elder, his nesis Xu Ying, who was the source of the laughter.
Xu Ying’s smile broadened, his eyebrows raised, full of provocation.
Yang Qingtian quietly retracted his gaze, ignoring it.
"The 34 popularity rankings have been confird."
At this ti, the neutral voice said, though the tone was sowhat strange.
"What’s going on?"
Soone noticed and imdiately asked.
"You’ll know by looking."
A list appeared on the light curtain.
The top three were surprisingly: Ye Xing, Yun Tianqi, and Lin Feng.
And each of their votes exceeded a hundred million, totaling over four hundred million votes.
"How is that possible?"
Soone stood up and asked in disbelief.
The King Becoming Plan attracted global attention, even the Emperors were paying attention.
Below the Kings, Emperors can ignore them, as numbers can never hurt an Emperor, but Kings can already threaten an Emperor.
Three Kings working together in harmony could have a chance to slay an Emperor.
Ye Xing and the others’ strength shouldn’t have qualified for a spot, right?
And how could be the votes so high? It’s unbelievable.
"You’ll understand after watching the video."
The neutral voice said.
Quickly, after watching the video, everyone understood why the votes for Lin Feng and the others were so exaggerated.
Why the fans were so crazy and lost their senses.
At this mont, Yang Qingtian and Yang Qing exchanged glances, their eyes filled with shock.
"So it was you who closed the Space Gate?"
Yang Qing’s eyes were sowhat dazed, muttering to himself.
In the Land of Chaos, at the Space Gate, Lin Feng saved his life, shattering all of his pride.
At this mont, he felt even more inferior.
Apart from being slightly stronger than Lin Feng, his talent and achievents were crushed by Lin Feng.
The child he once abandoned is now shining brightly, capturing the world’s attention.
"Interesting!"
Hong Tao looked at the light curtain, smiling as he spoke.
He was one of the few who knew Lin Feng’s team was the one who closed the Space Gate in the Land of Chaos.
He kept this information hidden for Lin Feng’s team, knowing how dangerous this revelation would be for them if it got out.
Next, Lin Feng’s team would face various forms of retribution.
Even Kings would fear such retribution, let alone a group of geniuses who have yet to fully mature.
Hong Tao had thought Lin Feng’s team would reveal this information, but not that it would be so soon.
And in such a manner to announce it to the whole world.
This is practically a public declaration of war and provocation against the Alien Race.
Although they were already on the Alien Race’s must-kill list, the ranking on this list still varies.
It’s imaginable that the reward for Lin Feng’s team would increase several tis, to a level tempting for anyone.
Is it worth it for just three academy spots?
Even if they get three spots, so what?
Participating in the King Becoming Plan doesn’t an they can beco Kings.
Hong Tao couldn’t quite grasp the thoughts of Lin Feng and the two others.
"Quite an interesting team."
Liu Yuan said with a smile.
At this mont, he too was interested in Lin Feng’s team.
Although they are just a team not even reached the King level, their achievents can make all the Guardians feel inferior.
Listening to the Emperors’ praise for Lin Feng’s team, Yang Qingtian and Yang Qing seed rather restless...
