Mighty Lord
Chapter 2835 - 899
The population aspect issue is not an unsolvable challenge for Zhou Tian.
First, although the number of living beings in the Abyss World is vast, in the current war, the population of living beings in the Abyss World can’t withstand long-term consumption. After all, the opponent now is the Divine Realm, relying on the Divine Realm’s foundation, the number of deities attacking is in the billions, and they die wave after wave. Even in that situation, despite the large number of living beings in the Abyss World, when their strength is not even as good as those deities, the number of casualties on the Abyss World side is definitely far greater than that of the Divine Realm.
Even considering the substantial number of living beings within the Abyss World, it still pales compared to the Divine Realm; there’s essentially no comparison. Compared to the Divine Realm’s countless population, even if the number of living beings in the Abyss World is significant, it’s at most measured in billions.
Since it’s measurable, the population of living beings in the Abyss World is far less than the Divine Realm. Even in this situation, even with one-to-one combat damage, the Abyss World likely cannot compete with the opponent. And needless to say, the Abyss World’s casualties are more than the opponent’s now.
However, although it seems the Divine Realm is not a match for the Abyss World, if both sides were to continue fighting like that, the Abyss World does not lack any winning odds.
Because unlike the Divine Realm, Zhou Tian will think of countermeasures. Knowing that a war of attrition won’t win against the opponent, if possible, Zhou Tian will naturally find methods to increase the population of living beings within the Abyss World.
Compared to most worlds, the Abyss World has advantages in that aspect.
For other worlds, if they want to increase their internal population, it can only happen through the self-growth of their internal living beings. When reproduction ability is not too bad, as long as no major wars occur at that time, over time, the internal population will inevitably increase.
However, like the current situation where the Abyss World is at war with the Divine Realm, most worlds don’t even think about increasing their population, and it’s already good if their internal population doesn’t face extinction at the time. In such a case, even if those worlds are stronger than the Abyss World, it is likely they will still face annexation by the Divine Realm.
As for the Abyss World, early on it already showed a different performance compared to other worlds. Regarding population, although the Abyss World itself has development, when speaking of the current population of living beings within the Abyss World, most members are actually migrants from other worlds.
Using various methods, Zhou Tian continuously finds ways to plunder a large number of living beings into the Abyss World, enriching the Abyss World while significantly enhancing its strength through such tactics.
It’s precisely because Zhou Tian continuously captures other worlds’ strong living beings into the Abyss World that even though the Abyss World cannot yet reach the standards of an Advanced World, it has already possessed the combat power of an Advanced World at that time.
According to the situation then, since Zhou Tian needs a large population to engage in a war of attrition against the Divine Realm’s large army, instead of allowing the living beings within the Abyss World to reproduce, directly plundering populations from other worlds is, for Zhou Tian, a better choice.
Thus, everything returned to the starting point, just as Zhou Tian had predicted. Under those circumstances, what Zhou Tian needed to do was to utilize contracts to invade Different Worlds. If possible, annex the Different Worlds, so that not only could Zhou Tian enhance the strength of his Abyssal Creatures, but also supplement the most lacking population.
Initially, using the contract method to annex a Different World would certainly be very challenging. But now that Zhou Tian focuses his energy on this matter, opening up conditions through contracts and targeting those weaker worlds is straightforward. Even though the Abyss World has most of its strength constrained by the Divine Realm, annexing those worlds is still expected to be an easy task for Zhou Tian.
Thus, with such thoughts at the time, and not believing there were any flaws in his plan, Zhou Tian immediately launched into action.
As a result, when Zhou Tian concentrated his energy on this matter, he quickly discovered that the strategy of arranging contractual agreements between Abyssal Creatures and Different World living beings had already borne fruit long ago. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
Everything was as Zhou Tian initially thought, regardless of his motivations for such deployment, once Zhou Tian made such arrangements, those living beings from Different Worlds simply couldn’t resist the temptation to sign contracts with Abyssal Creatures.
The advantage was too apparent; most of Zhou Tian’s Abyssal Creatures held the strength of residents within Advanced Worlds, and some powerful Abyssal Creatures even possessed the combat ability to confront deities. In those weaker worlds, such living beings as deities, even if only pseudo-gods, were already invincible existences.
