Chapter 1255: I don't agree

“How big is the scale?”

Due to his strength, Ling Kun was leading the Posthumous People with Neal and Hong Xiang supporting.

“Very big.” Zai Li pointed, “I am not sure how many, but anyway, they cover the plains, the high mountains, and the rivers.”

“I think they are going all out.”

Zai Li’s words made everyone speechless.

Be it Ye Zhongming, the Saintess, or the Kings who had lived for many years, all of them were shocked by those numbers.

Numerous!

So many that they couldn’t count!

Beside Ye Zhongming were Xia Lei and the others who had seen zombies surround the city. Millions of them pushed Cloud Peak to the edge, and they were nearly broken.

That nearly happened even when they relied on the city walls to defend.

One must know that there were only a few million. Although there weren’t many human evolved, there were still more than six digits. That didn’t include the hundreds of thousands of Posthumous People warriors that joined in.

Also, there were very few mutated zombies that could fly. Cloud Peak didn’t face many air threats during that siege.

But things were different now. Air troops occupied 20% of the demon monsters. Without the city walls, there was no way the Imperial City could defend.

“Actually, we have fully battled against the demon monsters before. But we had many experts, more than the demon monsters. We had the same amount or even more level nine experts, but now…”

Zaili sat down, defeated. “That level nine monster… Came.”

Everyone went silent again, and they knew what that meant.

Posthumous People and Saint Light Hall were considered humans before and at least had a level nine Saint Father. Even when Saint Father forced Red Hair into the cursed abyss, that level-nine monster only showed itself.

As another level nine presence, they knew that a fight would only cause the space to collapse.

But things were different now. The level nine human expert was dead. There was a huge gap in strength,; if they fought, the humans would be easily slaughtered.

The level nine demon monster wouldn’t care about the outcome as much as the Saint Father. That demon monster was much smaller than the Saint Father. It didn’t care about its energy consumption. Even if consumed, it would obtain energy from its huge number of subordinates or even from humans.

This meant that if they fought, the humans would face a complete level nine.

Without Punishment of the Gods, without the totem, without a backstab, how could they?

That monster needed only a breath to kill everyone here.

“What happened the last time?” Ye Zhongming said.

Saintess looked at Ye Zhongming, “It happened a few hundred thousand days ago. The demon monsters reproduced for a long time and there was a huge amount of them such that night demon plains couldn’t contain them. Even if they went through a cruel elimination, it reached a limit. The demon monster kings launched a war against us.”

Posthumous People and Saint Light Hall recalled records of that battle. Ling Kun said, “That battle lasted for three thousand days, and both sides suffered huge losses. Many legacies were broken. Fortunately, our two kings and the Saint Light Hall’s Saint Father and Saintess joined hands to kill the two kings. We then counter-attacked and used a few hundred days to chase them back.”

After that battle, both sides rested for a long time. Only now did they show signs of invading.

But this time, the humans didn’t have four level nine evolved. They didn’t even have one.

Ye Zhongming looked at the patterns on the table and was thinking.

“We need to decide on how to deal with them. I think there is a best solution.”

Saintess glanced at everyone and then at Ye Zhongming.

“What?”

Lingkun looked at Ye Zhongming and then asked the Saintess.

Ye Zhongming lowered his head slightly and smiled.

He knew what it was. He believed that the kings also guessed what she was going to say. But Ling Kun still asked. It seemed like both sides stood on the same ground.

“Before they come, all of us move to Earth, and then… Shut the space gate and give up on this place.”

Her words didn’t surprise Ye Zhongming at all.

Could Posthumous People, Saint Light Hall, and Cloud Peak fight them? The answer was obvious. They stood no chance.

So they couldn’t fight and could only escape. But where to?

Even if there was a place, what if the demon monster army chased? Taking a step back, even if they didn’t chase, the secret realm would collapse in an uncertain time.

Since that was the case, since they had a plan to move to Earth, why not bring that forward? Although it was rushed and many people wouldn’t be able to leave, most people could. That was better than people staying here and waiting to die.

Be it Posthumous People or Saint Light Hall, this was the best way. It was just a matter of timing.

This was also what benefitted them the most.

But it was bad for Cloud Peak.

Why did Cloud Peak help the Posthumous People? Why are they helping them to move to Earth? Wasn’t it to turn the Secret Realm into their back graden? Wasn’t it to turn this into their resource base?

But if they used this method and everyone left, they would lose connection to the Secret Realm. All they had done would go to waste. Would Ye Zhongming dare to use the key again? What if the level nine monster didn’t leave?

Ye Zhongming smiled coldly because of that.

“This idea…”

“I don’t agree.”
