Chapter 572: Chapter 332: The Final Account, Five Centuries of Essence!
Upon hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but simultaneously look toward Chen Jiuxuan.
It was Chen Jiuxuan who spoke.
“Before the Shadow Disaster erupts, there will be at least an hour’s advance warning.”
“Even if a 7.9 level Shadow Disaster breaks out,” Chen Jiuxuan said calmly, “this hour is enough to respond.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Blue Star has been at war with the Shadow Race for years, and has long established comprehensive warning measures against them.
An hour’s advance warning!
This hour is definitely sufficient for demigod powerhouses.
At this moment.
“How do you plan to respond?” The Zhou Family’s demigod suddenly asked, “The battle between demigod powerhouses, even the aftershocks, are enough to destroy entire cities.”
“Do you have a way to evacuate several cities, and billions of people, within an hour?”
Chen Jiuxuan remained silent.
Indeed, this is the biggest problem!
Past eruptions of Shadow Disasters involved battles at most at the Ninth Break level. Though these demigods did not intervene, they could protect many cities from impact.
But if a demigod appeared?
Even they themselves are hard to protect, let alone protect others.
As for evacuating billions of people in advance? Even demigods can’t achieve that.
Humans cannot enter storage spaces.
Like the East Sea Province, a city has a population of over a hundred million, making it difficult to relocate in a short time.
“If a 7.9 level Shadow Disaster truly erupts.”
“A great battle would wipe out tens of millions or even billions of people,” the Zhou Family’s demigod said softly, “Blue Star cannot withstand such losses.”
“Therefore, we have always been delaying.”
“As long as someone breaks through to the peak of demigod, they can face a 7.9 level Shadow Disaster without fear!” The Zhou Family’s demigod said firmly, “Now is not the time for a decisive battle.”
His implications are clear.
Surrender Jiang Ye!
As long as the current situation can be stabilized, sacrificing a young genius is undoubtedly worthwhile.
“We must not compromise with the enemy.”
“If Jiang Ye is truly handed over, such an act would be no different from the Divine Concealment Organization?” said the Li Family’s demigod, a veiled woman with a voice that was ethereal and airy.
“How can that be the same?”
“The Divine Concealment Organization acts for selfish gain,” the Zhou Family’s demigod shook his head, “whereas we act for Blue Star’s future.”
“The two cannot be compared.”
The Li Family’s demigod glanced at him, “Would you be willing to hand over your Zhou family’s youth?”
“Of course, I would,” said the Zhou Family’s demigod.
“Enough.”
“Stop arguing,” said the Chu Family’s demigod, “Let’s hear what the Alliance Hierarch has to say.”
Upon hearing this, the many powerhouses quieted down.
This matter ultimately rests on the Alliance Hierarch’s decision.
All eyes turned toward the figure in the green robe on the platform.
“Let’s discuss a response plan for the 7.9 level Shadow Disaster,” Qi Tian said calmly.
This simple sentence made everyone understand the Alliance Hierarch’s intention.
Protect Jiang Ye!
“Alliance Hierarch.”
“Do we really intend to go to full-scale war with the Shadow Race?” the Zhou Family’s demigod frowned.
As a demigod, he wasn’t afraid to fight the Shadow Race, but doing so would undoubtedly bring great impact to Blue Star.
Especially considering he only has a few decades of life left.
If a great battle erupts, his lifespan could shorten drastically.
The other demigods also frowned, none wishing to see such a scenario unfold.
“Zhou Huaifeng, your avoidance of battle for too long is not a good thing,” Qi Tian said calmly, “We avoid battle when possible, but we’re never afraid of it.”
“If the Shadow Race truly wants to start the ultimate war, then let it happen!”
“Moreover, the Shadow Race doesn’t have the courage to start a full-scale war,” Qi Tian said calmly.
Upon hearing this.
Many powerhouses, including Chen Jiuxuan, showed puzzled expressions.
“The war between the Shadow Race and Blue Star is not what either side desires.”
“If I’m not mistaken,” Qi Tian said gravely, “perhaps there is another hand behind the Shadow Race controlling everything.”
“What?”
“Another hand?”
“Could there be the shadow of another civilization behind the Shadow Race?” The hundreds of powerhouses present were astonished.
Blue Star’s battle with the Shadow Race has lasted for hundreds of years.
But this is their first time hearing such a claim.
“Alliance Hierarch, what do you mean?”
Even Chen Jiuxuan couldn’t remain seated, asking urgently, “Do you mean there’s a stronger civilization behind the Shadow Race orchestrating all this?”
The Shadow Race’s civilization is already quite troublesome for Blue Star.
If there’s an even stronger civilization behind them? That would certainly be disastrous news.
“Specifically, I’m still investigating.”
“Overall, the Shadow Race won’t easily erupt into an ultimate Shadow Disaster,” Qi Tian explained slowly, “Even a 7.9 level Shadow Disaster requires a significant price from them.”
“The message from the Shadow Race,” the Zhou Family’s demigod frowned, “is it simply a verbal threat?”
“It is a verbal threat.”
“But we can’t treat it as just a verbal threat,” Qi Tian said calmly, “If a 7.9 level Shadow Disaster erupts, we must be prepared with adequate responses.”
Everyone understood thoroughly.
If they don’t hand over Jiang Ye.
The most that will happen next is one or two occurrences of a 7.9 level Shadow Disaster, no more than that, and certainly not the ultimate Shadow Disaster.
The Shadow Race needs to pay a price to initiate a 7.9 level Shadow Disaster as well.
“Even if just one or two 7.9 level Shadow Disasters occur,” the Zhou Family’s demigod shook his head, “Blue Star still cannot bear it.”
“Once a demigod-level Shadow Race breaks out of the Starry Sky Corridor, a single strike can wipe out several cities.”
“Defending is impossible!”
“To protect Jiang Ye alone at the cost of losing tens of millions or even billions?” the Zhou Family’s demigod said lightly, “Is it truly worth it?”
The faces of many powerhouses changed.
Indeed!
It is easy to block a demigod, but unless the battlefield is in outer space, a demigod’s battle with a single strike can destroy several cities.
That involves billions of lives!
