Facing the Apocalypse with My Other Selves-Chapter 541 - 307: Conciliatory Measures

If we must speak of the differences, the knowledge the wizards believe in is purely the truth that exists in the world.

In contrast, the knowledge of Buddhism and Taoism includes consciousness, ideology, thoughts, etc.

Thus, one side may appear stronger, but the other can endure longer.

In short, the wizards have adopted the plan they value most regarding Buddhism and Taoism and the planes they control, and have gained a certain understanding.

This understanding has clearly deepened their attention.

Not to mention, the Wizard Civilization has conquered and controlled many planes, including some intelligent races, so their vision and intensity are undeniably powerful.

They can naturally see how troublesome Buddhism, Taoism, and the planes they control can be.

"They have unified thoughts and ideologies, and it can be said, they lack the most serious drawbacks of a belief civilization but simultaneously possess its greatest advantages. I have no doubt that once these people see us as heretics, they will sacrifice everything without hesitation," the leader continued to say at the invasion meeting. "Even if we win, after expending great costs, we will only gain some fragmented planes. Moreover, I believe their most valuable aspect lies in their power system and thought processes, not these planes themselves."

It must be said that after Shen Yu and others saw the contents of this meeting, they also had to admit that the Wizard Civilization is indeed a powerful civilization.

Although they frequently win battles and have strong confidence in themselves, this confidence is not blind.

On the contrary, this confidence is entirely based on rationality.

So, if Buddhism and Taoism really only have the level they currently exhibit, even with the Buddha and Zhen Yuanzi, the two Daluo Golden Immortals, their final outcome would likely be joining the Wizard Civilization.

Perhaps this would even lead to significant positive changes for the Wizard Civilization, improving and refining its system and thinking.

However, the current situation is evidently different.

This matter fundamentally involves an association of beings beyond worldly scope, using the powerful characteristics of the Gray Mist to set traps for the Wizard Civilization.

And their goal is evidently achieved.

Because, by the end of the meeting, these wizards chose a rarely used method.

"We believe employing soft methods against this civilization will yield the greatest benefits."

This proposal, after intensive and comprehensive discussion, received unanimous agreement.

Do not believe the Wizard Civilization has always relied solely on military invasion.

For such a powerful and mature civilization, nothing is absolutely fixed.

Ultimately, the purpose of their warfare is to gain benefits.

For most planes, the Wizard Civilization can achieve absolute crushing force; military might is their fastest and most efficient way to gain profits.

Oftentimes, they don’t even need to use force; merely displaying military might is enough to secure victory.

But when encountering troublesome enemies, especially when it’s clear that showing and using force cannot maximize benefits and may bring significant losses, the Wizard Civilization will also employ soft methods.

Appearing as powerful and friendly.

Even offering up benefits in the early stages.

As long as the benefits lost don’t reach the level of possible war sacrifices, negotiations can be pursued.

And when the goodwill generated by these soft methods continues to rise, many soft invasion strategies can follow suit.

Finally, gaining victory by size advantage.

All in all, being well aware of this, the association’s goal is precisely this kind of "soft approach."

The association likewise prefers to avoid war.

Unless a Saint can free their hands, ordinary warfare is meaningless and only causes depletion.

The association does not need the Wizard Civilization’s resources, nor simple technology.

What they need are technical personnel, researchers.

The technology needed by the All Heavens World isn’t something any single world can develop.

It must be redeveloped under the All Heavens background.

For instance, attempting to solve the apocalypse of the Primordial World on a technical level, even obtaining all the technology and power from the Wizard World directly, would be useless.

Specific technological research must be conducted over time.

All in all, after several Level Nine Wizard influences within the Wizard Civilization collectively made a decision, Shen Yu and many others could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Shortly thereafter, the swift-acting Wizard Civilization quickly formed a diplomatic mission.

Leading this mission was even a Level Nine Wizard!

It was Hui’Er.

His identity as a dimensional wizard brought tremendous confidentiality capabilities.

Even when Hui’Er appears outside, although he can exhibit Level Nine Wizard power, that doesn’t count as his true self; his real self has long merged with his dimensional plane.

To kill Hui’Er, one must completely destroy his dimensional plane.

Within his own dimensional plane, Hui’Er’s power far exceeds that of an ordinary Level Nine Wizard!
