Chapter 697: Chapter 486: Principle Annihilation Missile!_2

“At least Level 68.” Shen Hao, who was also paying close attention, deduced the real level of this person in no time.

That was the leader of the Eighteen Great Generals under Emperor Yu Ji! Named Black Star.

And he did not appear alone.

The Eighteen Great Generals, each known to have the strength among the top fifty of the Hundred Kings, yet this time, eight have arrived all at once!

“You should feel fortunate.” Black Star, accompanied by eight comrades-a total of nine people, stood at the forefront of the fleet, “For so many years, no one has made it this far. His Majesty, pleased in his heart, has dispatched all of us here. In this way, even if you have to stop here, you will not have any regrets.”

The image of Black Star was very unique.

A figure utterly black to the extreme.

Though it had the limbs, torso, and head of a conventional life form, all parts of it resembled a black hole, incessantly devouring all surrounding light, so much so that one couldn’t discern its true appearance but could only vaguely perceive its general contour by the changes in the surrounding light.

More importantly, even other methods of detection, including Divine Soul Perception, would be completely devoured when getting within a certain distance.

It was as if in front of them wasn’t a person, a life form, but a true “Extraordinary Black Hole.”

The strength and Life Level of the bystanders now far surpassed those of the Hundred Kings’ first attempt.

Just as Black Star said, having eight out of the Eighteen Great Generals show up was indeed an astonishing number.

The remaining ten are not absent but simply needed to hold their positions elsewhere.

In other words, Emperor Yu Ji has dispatched all available combat power at his disposal, apart from not personally taking action.

Defeat these eight, and the next to appear would surely be Emperor Yu Ji himself!

This also fits with the style of Emperor Yu Ji.

Among the Five Emperors, Emperor Yu Ji is the one who welcomes challengers the most.

After all, his path to Transcendence lies in dominion; the stronger the challengers are, the more they would enhance Emperor Yu Ji’s power after being defeated.

That is to say, challenging him, as long as one truly has sufficient power, would most likely not lead to their downfall, but rather be incorporated into his strength.

Thus, the appearance of these eight Great Generals indeed signifies Emperor Yu Ji’s desire for this powerful fleet!

Even, there’s no need to doubt that among all those who stand out to watch the battle right now, Emperor Yu Ji himself is certainly among them!

The spectators are now somewhat curious about the outcome of this battle.

“Black Star has not made a move in a very long time.”

“It’s said that his power can now be compared to that of the Ten Emperors!”

“Very likely, when he fought with the Dragon Emperor back then, he only narrowly missed victory.”

“It’s unknown if this fleet has any other hidden tactics.”

“If they win this time too, hiss–!”

“…”

If we apply normal reasoning, just Black Star alone, with power comparable to the Ten Emperors, and the addition of the other eight Great Generals, each a Late Stage Seventh powerful figure, this collective strength has already far surpassed the previous performance of the Human Civilization’s fleet.

However, at this point, no one dare to judge the Human Civilization’s fleet by conventional cognition anymore.

Because they have barged all the way here with demonstrated strength that not only fails to clarify but grows even more unfathomable!

Everyone can sense the presence of a powerful individual within this fleet.

Yet until now, not even the warriors ranked top fifty like the White King have managed to force this individual out!

Instead, they’ve been effortlessly eliminated by indescribable and immensely powerful means.

Even the naivest of people can tell that this fleet has methods that transcend knowledge and commonsense, which are inconceivable.

Therefore, the outcome of today’s battle is truly an unknown.

And at this moment, the Commander’s will to fight had also reached its peak.

This is right!

The previous enemies were not truly enemies; only the current adversaries are the test of the results brought forth by their arduous cultivation and development over the past four hundred years!

“Prepare the Law-Eradicating Missiles!” the Commander directly ordered.

At that instant, even the adjutant was somewhat stunned.

Though he immediately went to carry out the order, that “missile” was one of the Legion’s biggest trump cards!

It was supposed to be reserved for Emperor Yu Ji.

And now it’s being deployed?

Seeming to sense what the adjutant was thinking, the Commander slightly furrowed his brows.

“Didn’t your instructor teach you in your military command classes?” He was not stingy with his guidance even in this situation, advising his adjutant, “For Trial Civilizations like us, the lives of our warriors always take precedence over resources. Our warriors can only sacrifice for victory, never for the sake of saving resources. This also serves the longer-term interests of Civilization. Currently, we have three Law-Eradicating Missiles, and if two are not enough to resolve Emperor Yu Ji, then three wouldn’t make much difference either. However, this one we have now is perfect for experimentation!”

Yes, this is indeed the warfare approach of Human Civilization.

Law-Eradicating Missiles, this type of weapon has already touched upon the Eighth Stage, and although today’s Human Civilization can produce them on its own, the cost is extremely high, scarcely cheaper than purchasing from the Civilization Mall.

However, for Human Civilization, resources and costs are what we lack the least.

The lives of the warriors, on the other hand, are far more precious.

Because the whole Civilization is still in the midst of rapid development, the vast majority of warriors have not yet reached their potential peak.

In such a case, if there weren’t enough war resources available, it would be a different story.

But since there are, using them directly to cleanly resolve the war and achieve victory at the smallest cost is the decision a competent military commander should make.

More importantly — they are not just a tip of the iceberg in a grand battlefield, nor are they desperate troops who face annihilation if not victorious and have their souls return to the Eternal Divine Kingdom; they are merely pioneers.

Behind them, there are Legions hundreds of times larger, and countless more powerful warriors with even more astonishing methods; and even the gaze of His Majesty watching over them.

In this context, to not use the means at hand and face reprimand after returning would be inexcusable.

The adjutant is not ignorant of these principles; it was just a subconscious lapse in reaction time. But soon, everyone’s attention was captured by the looming event!

“Principle Annihilation Missile,” this is not actually the official name of the weapon. Its formal designation is more rigorous, and it’s not really a “missile” at all.

But many people prefer to call it that way.

It can directly collapse the essence of Extraordinary Laws within the target, creating a vacuum of Extraordinary Law truth!

Unless one can step out of their own world and stand tall among the myriad Heavenly Worlds as an escapee, any warrior struggling within a world and controlling great power through the world’s Extraordinary Laws would face internal collapse at their Life Level!

Only true Merging Daoists, who have merged with the world’s Laws as one, or mere Mortals without Extraordinary Power, would not be affected.

Clearly, the present adversaries were neither.

However, the behavior of the Human Civilization Legion previously had obviously aroused vigilance.

The current reconnaissance methods unequivocally informed everyone in the command center.

The enemies before them, seemingly careless in their positioning, were in actuality just two individuals; the rest were merely Avatars or realistic projection-like tricks for deception.

“Form battle array, open fire!”

The Commander issued another order.

It may seem like just two simple commands, but the actual commands had already been instantly transmitted throughout the entire Legion through command authority at the Divine Soul level.

The Great Formation, composed of one hundred and twenty billion warriors, immediately began to transform internally, with vast amounts of Extraordinary Power flowing rapidly.

An astonishing transformation took place in a highly efficient manner.

Even now, even a staggering number like one hundred and twenty billion could be considered a powerful whole, inseparable!
