Chapter 1404 Confrontation
The intense battle between the World Tree Army and the Galactic Alliance Army lasted for two months, but the World Tree was still unable to break into the Flickering World territory. Although they had broken through the Galactic Alliance Army’s defenses several times, the defense circle that the three Universal Civilizations had used more than ten years to build, was far more complete than the temporary intercepting circle. The support network was extremely dense, like an extremely dense elastic net.
The deeper they sank, the stronger the rebound would be, and they would not be able to stand on their own. All the World Tree troops that had attacked the Flickering World were either beaten back or wiped out. Their best record did not even reach three days, not even passing through the Star System at the border.
The border battle reports of the Flickering World were constantly sent back to the Central Galaxy, spreading throughout the galactic society. Countless galactic residents had been in fear for more than ten years, and now that the enemies had truly invaded their territory, many of them were even more afraid. However, because the Galactic Alliance Army had always kept the enemies out of their territory, their outstanding performance gave some confidence to the galactic residents.
Siebert Fortress. Many Beyond Grade As were on standby here for two months.
“Heh, didn’t the World Tree like to use its individual strength against us? Why are they so cowardly now? They are getting rusty.”
In the lounge, Sun Hunter stepped on the table and said with disdain.
“Probably because they’re afraid of Black Star. He captured a tree king ten years ago, so it must have hurt them,” Kant smiled.
In the past two months, no matter how they provoked or enticed them, the World Tree did not send out their individual strengths to fight, calmly watching the Beyond Grade As of the three Universal Civilizations create trouble on the battlefield.
The Beyond Grade As were a little helpless. No matter how strong their fighting spirit was, there was nothing they could do if the others did not respond. They had even used their physical bodies to tempt the World Tree expert, but the World Tree experts still refused to come out.
“You’re thinking too much. The World Tree isn’t that afraid of me. They should be observing the number of individual strengths we have. They won’t give up on their Exchange tactic so easily. They’re probably going to attack soon.”
Han Xiao played with Ames’ hair and replied casually
He had been on standby with the others, waiting to catch a big fish.
In the past few days, the three Universal Civilizations had hidden the true size of their individual strength. Most of the new Beyond Grade As did not come out. Hila, Feidin, Evans, and the other powerful Beyond Grade As with special abilities or huge progress did not participate. At the same time, the Beyond Grade As who had ‘died’ during the last battle did not appear, allowing them to remain ‘dead’ in the eyes of the World Tree.
In the Holy Accord organization that was not yet revealed to others, there were still dozens of Revivors who were prepared to participate in the battle. The individual strengths displayed in front of the World Tree were just the tip of the iceberg. It was to make the World Tree think that the Exchange tactic was effective and fall into the trap.
After more than ten years of searching, Oathkeeper had accumulated quite a few Sanctum keys, but Han Xiao had never used them. He kept them as a strategic reserve.
Buzz
While everyone was chatting, the alarm suddenly sounded. The World Tree launched another attack on the outermost defense circle.
Everyone paused. Before they could move, a remote projection of an officer suddenly appeared in the room.
“Everyone, the Beyond Grade As of the World Tree have finally appeared. Please arrive at the battlefield as soon as possible.”
Hearing this, Han Xiao’s eyes sparkled. “It’s finally here… Is there any sign of the Tree King this time?”
“Yes!”
“Who?”
“Two. They are the Subduing Tree King and the Lord’s Avatar of the Fortitude Tree King.”
Kasuyi could not help but laugh and interrupted, “With the lesson from last time, the World Tree would not dare to let the Tree King go out alone. However, the arrangement this time is similar to the last. I’m afraid they feel that as long as they are careful, they will not fall for the same trick as the Heart Tree King.”
This time, a new Beyond Grade A asked curiously,
“The Tree King has already appeared. Does Your Excellency Black Star want to fight?”
“It’s only Subduing Tree King… Forget it, I’ll leave it to you guys.” Han Xiao stroked his chin, pondered, and clicked his tongue.
He hoped to catch a big fish. At the very least, it should be Fortitude Tree King. It would be best if it was the Ancestral Tree King. It did not seem worth it to expose his strength for a mere Subduing Tree King… He just disliked the Subduing Tree King, a Pugilist, because his abilities were too simple and he was not as important as the other Tree Kings.
Furthermore, there were plenty of Beyond Grade As in the Beyond Grade A Association, so there was no need for him to do anything. As long as they killed Subduing Tree King, he would not be able to revive in the short term. That should lure out the Ancestral Tree King and the Secret Tree King. They would be the better prey in Han Xiao’s eyes.
Hila’s eyes lit up, as though she was afraid that someone would snatch her opponent. “Leave this guy to me!”
Han Xiao raised his brows and dampened her enthusiasm mercilessly, “Although your improvement is not small, you are still far from killing a Tree King.”
“You won’t know till you try it.” Hila’s eyes flashed coldly.
“Alright, as long as you don’t let him escape.” Han Xiao curled his lips.
Originally, Wuornos was the most stable in dealing with the Tree King, but this guy had not left the Temple of Ten Thousand Gods for more than ten years, and he still had no intention of joining the battle. However, now that there was the eldest brother in the Underworld, they did not lack powerful experts.
