Facing the Apocalypse with My Other Selves

Chapter 140: The Void Spirit Race's New Tactics


Still the same phrase: the Void Spirit Civilization already knows enough about Human Civilization, but Human Civilization still has massive gaps regarding the Void Spirit Civilization.

Even where they come from, and what their true goal in attacking Human Civilization is, hasn't been figured out yet.

For example, these industrial planets.

The Void Spirit Race has occupied them for more than ten years, yet hasn't made any changes.

They neither repaired nor resumed production, nor did they engage in destruction.

They just stationed a considerable number of biological legions here, holding the planets so Human Civilization can't take them back.

To say there's no purpose is simply impossible.

Human Civilization has made many guesses, but none can be verified.

We must guard against it.

The Interstellar Civilization at this moment has in fact, already suffered severe blows in the more than twenty years of prior war—though there is now hope for a counterattack, these days are still the hardest yet.

If the troops committed to Wutun are defeated and forced to withdraw, the fate of the entire Human Civilization will be in jeopardy.

"I think it's best to play it safe," the female commander Nangong stated her opinion. "We should gradually retake Wutun, recover some strength, build a stronger foundation, and then mount another offensive."

Her words were actually accommodating the significant lack in professional ability of interstellar world Shen Yu.

She spoke directly in terms he could understand.

Everyone present was aware that interstellar world Shen Yu's right to speak wasn't actually any lower than theirs.

After learning about the Association's existence, it's no exaggeration to say: as long as interstellar world Shen Yu exists, and Human Civilization isn't completely destroyed, then no matter how desperate the situation, there is still hope.

On this point, the other commanders basically agreed.

However, after thinking for a while, interstellar world Shen Yu asked Shen Yu in his mind.

Suddenly, he said: "Actually, I can know exactly when the enemy's 'methods' will arrive."

With those words, all the commanders present immediately looked at him.

Every one of them showed joy and anticipation.

This is also a key reason interstellar world Shen Yu participates in these meetings, even enjoying a say in decisions.

He may be just average in military strategic command, but with the backing of the Association, he can always produce miracles that no matter how spiritually gifted others are, they could never achieve.

Just like at this moment.

Even with no clue as to what methods the enemy is waiting on, he can still know exactly when those enemy methods will arrive?

Interstellar world Shen Yu didn't hesitate.

Although the Gray Mist he possessed was fully depleted in the previous Bronze Material technology domain, he could still borrow from the Association Headquarters.

Zero interest, too.

Clearly, the Void Spirit Race's backing is nowhere near as terrifying as what's behind the Meteorite.

Directly "prophesying" the trajectory is costly, but fully worth it!

The answer: twenty-three days later.

"Can you know precisely what kind of method it is?" a commander looked at interstellar world Shen Yu with urgency.

If that, too, could be known, commanding the battle would become vastly easier.

Unfortunately, interstellar world Shen Yu made an attempt and realized the consumption would be even greater—over a billion. So he changed tack, asking only about the threat level, and breathed a small sigh of relief.

"The specific method is unknown, but the threat level can be determined." interstellar world Shen Yu paused, "If we are caught completely off guard, our odds of victory are about one in nine—we are the one."

One in nine—in other words, if Human Civilization's legions are taken by surprise and unprepared, there's only a ten percent chance of victory.

A true do-or-die—one life among nine deaths.

Yet, this news made all the top commanders smile.

"Ten percent? That's enough!" Xiu'Er even declared decisively, "We can fight!"

In Interstellar Civilization's wars, ten percent means the gap between the two sides isn't beyond the point of resistance.

That's all they need.

Don't forget, they're now forewarned of the exact date!

Previously, Human Civilization's struggle against the Void Spirit was below even ten percent odds of victory—yet the war had lasted these many years.

The five commanders quickly reached consensus—full army mobilization!

Twenty-three days: if the Void Spirit Race maintains this passive stance, it will be enough time to recapture more than half of the Wutun Industrial Zone.

Indeed, that's exactly what happened.

The following twenty-three days passed in relative calm, with the Void Spirit Race offering absolutely no resistance.

However, the Void Spirit Race's legions were clearly being redeployed.

Biological legions from other regions were being shifted toward this front!

Clearly, they were waiting for the arrival of the "method"—preparing for a full-scale counterattack.

But Human Civilization was not unprepared either.

During these twenty-three days, Human Civilization continually deployed more legions; even the Martial Arts Legion sent over three million people, the first batch to achieve real results.

With the help of Worm Flesh and Elemental Power Crystals purchased from the Martial Arts Civilization, the average strength of those three million now reached First Realm Golden Cicada Technique level—in terms of Primordial Spirit, they'd already stepped into the realm of the Extraordinary, fully capable of resisting the Void Spirit Race's Primordial Spirit attacks.

Their task: to be distributed among various warships and officers, guarding each level of commander.

This would prevent the Void Spirit Race from resorting to mass sacrificial tactics—dispatching large numbers of Void Spirit Warriors for decapitation strikes.

Besides that, Bronze Material Weapons had also achieved initial results.

The warships built were only small-sized in hull, but packed the striking power of medium- to large-sized warships. Together with elite Martial Arts fighters, selected from high resource-intensive cultivation, they formed a powerful fleet.
