Chapter 664: Chapter 368: The Enemy Appears! (Part 2)

There is even unabashed joy.

At the transcendent level, or rather at the civilization level, certain disparities are fundamentally irresistible.

8.3%, which seems small, but in reality, it is enough to show that this newly emerged All Heavens Force and the Association are actually in the same tier.

There may be differences between the two, but at most, these differences are in scale, technology, and means, not to the extent of being irresistible.

This win rate even only considers the current power of the Association and does not include the Gray Mist at hand.

To say that, as long as the Association’s win rate exceeds 1%, then interstellar world Shen Yu’s actual confidence can approach 90%!

"We can fight!"

At this moment, all Shen Yu reached the identical conclusion.

They don’t need to retreat, don’t need to give up the Tower World, or abandon the substantial remaining Gray Mist within it; the enemy is far from strong enough to make them retreat without a fight.

This war can certainly be fought.

"Then I’ll ask the second question." Shen Yu consumed more Gray Mist again, and this time the amount consumed was even less.

Because it’s just asking for a rough answer.

Soon, the answer appeared.

Unexpectedly, this sudden All Heavens Force causing an apocalypse crisis does not belong to the All Heavens Force that created the High Tower, nor is it the mysterious and powerful All Heavens Force that previously brought annihilation upon Force One.

This means it’s a completely new All Heavens Force!

An active force with All Heavens traversal capability, considerably stronger than the Association.

"Let’s temporarily call it Force Three," Shen Yu said.

Force One was the first discovered, Force Two was the creator of the High Tower, and Force Three is the current one.

As for the All Heavens Force that destroyed Force One, it is too mysterious and powerful to be included in these basic numbers.

However, naming is a minor issue.

How to respond is the top priority for what needs to be done next.

"Let’s begin with some speculation." Shen Yu looked at the other Shen Yu, presenting his conjecture, "Firstly, this force didn’t create the Tower World’s force, which may mean that they aren’t too familiar with the Tower World’s Law. This might only be a customary All Heavens exploration, and in the original fate, they brought apocalyptic doom to the Tower World. Can we interpret this as a conflict or contradiction between their exploration and the original Tower rules, perhaps even involving conflicts with the High Tower’s emergent consciousness, ultimately leading to the apocalypse?"

"This speculation is very reasonable," interstellar world Shen Yu was the first to express support, "Because there’s a very crucial factor: if this Force Three is merely conducting an All Heavens exploration, there wouldn’t really be a reason to annihilate an entire civilization. After all, population is an important harvest in exploring the Heavens."

The current Association can also be seen as a constantly exploring All Heavens Force.

Yet they haven’t destroyed any civilization they explored.

Even those civilizations considered too severe that felt as if they had to be destroyed, the ultimate choice was just to control those people.

Forcefully transform them.

The reason being, population is also a resource.

Therefore, the most likely guess is that Force Three essentially cannot control such outcomes; the world’s destruction has certain prerequisites.

Coupled with the information gained by using the Gray Mist about Force Three’s potential power, Shen Yu’s speculation becomes more plausible.

"So, my suggestion is for us to act accordingly," Shen Yu said, "We directly replace the identities of those thirteen powerful individuals, disguising as natives. I guess, facing a civilization with a high level of control over the world, they wouldn’t immediately go all out because they aren’t certain they can achieve victory with low losses."

Indeed, that is Shen Yu’s plan.

The intelligence readily shows that the Association’s direct confrontation with the other party doesn’t have a high win rate.

But, they have already understood the other party’s basic information, whereas the other party knows nothing about the Association.

In such a case, first lure the other party bit by bit into action, gain more time, and potentially acquire more Gray Mist.

This indeed seems to be the best choice.

Soon, other Shen Yu expressed their support.

"We should not only disguise ourselves as the natives of this world but also as a native who gained control over the Tower’s authority and completed a deep unity," interstellar world Shen Yu directly stated, "Some loopholes might exist, but that’s okay, we can use the Gray Mist to fill them silently."

Loopholes naturally exist; after all, hundreds of years ago, this civilization still remained deeply entrenched within the rules of the High Tower.

Doing this in such a short time naturally has its reasons.

The public reason is that some extraordinary High Tower Adventurers were the first to break through the High Tower’s rules.

Then proceeded and succeeded with remarkable force.

The logic is entirely reasonable; what’s left are some residual rule information within the Tower World.

But, using Gray Mist allows rapid modification and filling with minimal consumption.

All preparations are completed quickly.

Soon, all Shen Yu noticed that as a thread of exploratory law creeped in, once it minimally understood the world’s situation, it quickly became cautious.

Even this action starts bringing in a constant flow of Gray Mist for the Association.

Clearly, in the original fate, Force Three’s actions were more aggressive, causing quite a few deaths.

But now, those deaths are changed.

This strategy holds the greatest advantage for Shen Yu.

Rather than face substantial costs and risks in direct confrontation, slowing the pace while harvesting Gray Mist allows the entire Association to rapidly strengthen. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

"The thirteen-year apocalypse should change fundamentally," all Shen Yu reached this conclusion, "Next comes the long-term battle."

Indeed, that’s the case.

Under greater caution, the other party took a full fifteen years just to explore the fundamental situation of this world.

After all, in their eyes, the Tower civilization has thoroughly controlled the entire Tower World, with a very high degree of rule control. If they aren’t careful, such rule-level exploration can easily be detected.

However, those fifteen years were adequate for them to obtain a general understanding of the entire Tower World.

Let’s see the next course of action.

Soon, under the watchful eyes of all Shen Yu, the real invasion commenced.

Still threads of weak law, but the volume has increased, maintaining at the upper limit range of the previous "safe passage."

And this time, it’s no longer probing but transporting.

Transporting some powerful consciousness quietly infiltrating into the strong individuals in the Tower World.

Because those weak ones in Tower World are claimed to be gathered by top-tier strong individuals, intending to achieve further transformation of the Tower World.

Therefore, the target can only be the remaining strong ones.

This results in all invading consciousnesses inherently being of high rank.

Roughly calculated, they’re at least at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level!

"The number is quite staggering." Shen Yu gasped, "Just the first wave of infiltrations called forth as many as 1.7 million Taiyi Golden Immortals!"

To say that even just a fraction of this number far exceeds the entirety of the ancient Primordial Multi-Parallel Universe.

After all, going beyond Taiyi Golden Immortal level, would be the tier of Buddha and Immortal Emperor.
