Even in defeat, it must hold a bit of value. Given their circumstances at that time, the Human Race had no intention of abandoning resistance. Thus, even if their strength was inferior to the opponent, it was unlikely that the ruling class of the Human Race would issue a retreat order at the last moment.

Moreover, considering the situation at that time, while it seemed certain that the Human Race would be defeated, it didn’t necessarily mean that they had no hope of victory if they truly clashed.

At this moment, the Human Race could only pin their hopes on the Angels.

Based on the disparity in strength between the two races, if they fought in the wilderness then, the Humans would have no chance of winning. Thus, if allowed to let both sides fight at that time, it could be said that humans were doomed to fail. Under such circumstances, if the Human Race didn’t want to be defeated, they could only rely on external aid.

Undoubtedly, the force that could have a significant effect in the war between the two races at that time had to be extremely powerful. Among the forces known to the Human Race at that moment, apart from the Angels, there was no other choice that could help them.

Thus, almost without hesitation, as soon as the Human Race confronted the Beastman large army in the wilderness, they immediately sent a distress signal to the Angels. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

From the standpoint of the rulers of the Human Race, their response at that time was certainly not wrong. After all, they knew that the Humans couldn’t defeat the Beastman in the wilderness. Knowing they were inferior, a hard fight would have been the wrong choice. With the Angels as an external aid, requesting their intervention was undoubtedly the right choice.

Firstly, the Angels’ strength is quite formidable. If they took action at that moment, it was thought that the Angels were bound to inflict corresponding losses on those Beastmen. With the help of the Angels, at the very least, when facing the large Beastman army, they wouldn’t collapse at the first touch.

Secondly, the Human Race leadership was not entirely trusting of the Angels. If they kept suppressing them and didn’t let them act, after a bout between the Human Race and the Beastman, regardless of what the Angels wanted to do, the Humans probably wouldn’t have the power to resist anymore.

Furthermore, if the Angels bore no malice towards them, it would be fine. But if the Angels did harbor malicious intent towards the Human Race, they wouldn’t need to wait for the Beastman Tribe to pursue further. With the power the Angels possessed at that time, they certainly had the capability to annihilate the Human Race.

Therefore, when potentially facing the threat from the Angels after weakening, the Human Race leadership certainly hoped for the Angels to fight when those Angels could be persuaded to enter battle.

As long as the Angels truly engaged in a desperate fight with the Beastman Tribe, no matter who won, it would be beneficial for the Human Race.

If the Angel Race won, then the Beastman Tribe, having lost a large army, would likely not pose a threat to the safety of the Human Race in the short term. Even if the Angel Race ultimately won, they wouldn’t escape without some losses when confronting so many Beastmen.

And if the Angel Race suffered a substantial loss, the Human Race leadership might then have the opportunity to deal with or subjugate the Angels.

Even if the Angels lost, it wouldn’t matter. Their strength would still heavily damage the large Beastman army. If a direct battle were to occur, the Human Race army naturally wouldn’t be the opponent. But if the Beastman large army had already suffered significant losses before such a battle, then when the Human Race army engaged again, the Beastman army might not win.

No matter how it was calculated, as long as there was a major battle between the Angels and the Beastmen, it would be advantageous to the Human Race. The problem now was, how could they incite a fight between the Angels and the Beastmen?

Guarding against the Angels while wanting them to fight on their behalf, the Human Race leadership entertained this idea without feeling any discomfort. Given the circumstances, if nothing unforeseen happened, it was estimated that once the Angels and Beastmen started fighting, the humans wouldn’t lend a helping hand immediately.

It’s just...

At that time, the ideas of the Human Race leadership were not wrong. From their position and standpoint, such thoughts were quite normal. However, even though their ideas were not bad, they didn’t find it was easy to utilize the Angels according to their plans.

In the eyes of the Human Race leadership, while the Angels needed to be guarded against, they still underestimated Zhou Tian’s Angels when truly faced with such matters.

Probably, in the eyes of the Human Race leadership, despite the Angels possessing substantial strength, their political maneuvering skills were on par with the demihumans.

Although it’s unfair to claim that Humans are the most cunning of all the worlds, when facing the Human Race, if anyone dared to be careless, they could be tricked in a matter of minutes. In such situations, when demihumans promised anything to the Human Race, the chances of falling into the traps set by the Human Race leadership at that time were as high as eighty percent.
