CapĂtulo 1272: Chapter 435: Vertical Alliance
âLess than half a month remains. Before the expansion in the New Star Zone, we must clean up these Paradise Contractors!â
Within the territory, receiving the latest battle report brought back by one of her avatars, Bai Yi frowned, slapped the table, and spoke similar words.
During this period, her avatars could almost be described as going full throttle.
Apart from those in the starry sky and a few working on ecological system transformations, nearly all other avatars had commenced wars against other Paradises.
If her base and enterprise werenât so massive today, she might not have been able to sustain such an extensive frontline.
However, even with a substantial base and enterprise, she couldnât withstand several Paradises simultaneously targeting her.
Aside from her own formidable combat power, those Paradises also seemed to have entered a period of high-level contractorsâ outburst.
Paradise after Paradise took turns attacking, each time involving large numbers of high-level contractors.
Moreover, the most significant issue was that, after such a long period of fighting, those Paradises and their contractors seemed to have become familiar with her abilities and could make some targeted arrangements.
It was as if the Paradises themselves provided substantial support to those contractors, each contractor almost having a tool for escape, leaving her no opportunity for transformation.
If not eliminated immediately, they would find a chance to escape the dungeon world.
With the war experiences brought back by those who survived, those contractors have also gained insights into the capabilities of the races under her command and began devising response strategies.
They knew how to respond to each race they faced.
They knew to be cautious of the Fungus Blanket and the metalization ability when facing the Insect Swarm, and about the spore transformation when encountering the witchâŠ
The effectiveness of many special techniques was significantly reduced.
In addition to seemingly endless middle and low-tier contractors and indigenous troops directed from within the dungeon world, their combat power was not insignificant.
Even if her coalition could eventually win, the losses were greater than before.
In contrast, not only could those Paradises handle her invasion, but they also occasionally had time to counter-invade.
Though not putting her at a disadvantage, and she even had the time to nurture some Seventh Rank Lords to assist in defense.
Even so, the disadvantages of those Paradises were gradually diminishing, and they were intensely pursuing her.
Initially, she intended to swiftly subdue these Paradises and then pour all the territoryâs resources into the starry sky.
But now, the war against the Paradises had become a lingering complication, severely delaying the power in her handsâŠ
âThese Paradises are growing too fastâŠ
If this continues, letting the strength of the Paradises keep growing, it might become hard for me to suppress them too.
The war must be ended quickly; at least, I need to suppress those Paradises firmly enough that I can spare more strengthâŠâ
However, thinking of this, Bai Yi felt a bit discouraged.
She had understood this logic more than a month ago, but the problem was how to execute itâŠ
During this period, she had already made some attempts.
She considered focusing on those below high-tier contractors, as the high-tier ones were hard to kill and even replenish after death.
But the results were minimal.
Even with her firepower capable of ignoring those escape tools, directly eliminating the contractors below high-tier before they could activate them.
These contractors seemed endless, with new ones constantly emerging.
âTsk, itâs unknown where these Paradises are getting Newbies; their reinforcement is surprisingly swiftâŠ
They absolutely have a source of contractors completely different from the Lord Game, or it wouldnât be possible for contractors to be continually nurtured.â
Evidently, she couldnât affect the source of those contractors, nor could she prevent new contractors from arising.
The whole plan of inducing a generation gap among Paradise Contractors could be considered a failure.
Muttering to herself, Bai Yi sighed:
âBut if I canât directly create a generational break from the source, thereâs only one way leftâŠâ
Bai Yiâs eyes sharpened. Since easier strategies were infeasible, she could only choose a more direct, brute-force approach.
Unleashing extraordinary force!
Relying on absolute strength to cripple these Paradises, one by one.
She knew thoroughly that permanently eliminating Paradises once and for all was unlikely.
The only option was to inflict enough pain on these Paradises, making their overall strength fall back by several ranks, reverting to months or even a year ago.
Once the strength gap reaches a certain level, naturally, fewer personnel would be needed to continue suppressing these Paradises.
âHowever, given my current situation, the only power left to develop are the fleets and the Sea SonsâŠ
But the former canât use teleportation, making deployment troublesome, and the latter, even with the recent round of gene updates, isnât substantial.
More strength is neededâŠâ
As this thought emerged in Bai Yiâs mind, several candidates simultaneously appeared in her mind.
More accurately, not entirely âpeopleâ.
The combat power she found impressive now was limited, among which the strongest were naturally the two Paradises with whom sheâd formed an ally contract before achieving high-tier status.
