Chapter 569: Chapter 274: Countermeasure Plan

"With my strength, there’s no need to lie."

"In fact, if there wasn’t a place where I need your help, I wouldn’t waste time meeting with you, because your strength in front of me is nothing worth mentioning!"

Chu Xiu’s words made everyone present show complex expressions. They were usually heroes respected in the base, yet they were so looked down upon by Chu Xiu. However, they also knew that what he said was entirely true; the disparity in power between the two sides was too vast!

Among the people, the highest Level was only the Level 7 King Tier Saintess, but she was a Mechanician with inherently weak close combat Block ability, naturally having no power to resist.

In the end, it was Aurora who calmed down first and said, "Sir, you said you are here to ’rescue’ us, but this shouldn’t be the way to ’rescue,’ right?"

Chu Xiu revealed a smile, raised his hand, and all the black hands binding everyone collapsed into common black mist.

"As I said before, there are places where I need your help."

"I ask you to forgive me, because time is pressing, this was the fastest way for you to trust me, and I also believe that you wouldn’t bother with this slight discourtesy when faced with life and death?"

Chu Xiu’s words made everyone look considerably better. Although some still showed dissatisfaction, none dared to act out.

Aurora said, "Sir, with such strong power, I really can’t understand how we could help you."

"It’s simple, because even I can’t confront the Blood Demon Army head-on," Chu Xiu said.

His words made everyone’s faces change again.

Even such a powerful being can’t stop the Blood Demon Army?

"This is because, besides the Blood Demon itself and its subordinates, they also have additional support."

Next, Chu Xiu revealed the matter of the Alien Civilization Envoy and the Slaughter Mode without any reservations.

Those present were elites among humans, and there was no point in unnecessary concealment and deceit with them, which would only lead to suspicion.

Of course, Chu Xiu omitted the information about everyone’s deaths; saying it would only affect morale, so it was entirely unnecessary.

The information thrown out by Chu Xiu left everyone shocked and speechless.

Aurora, with an extremely solemn expression, confirmed: "You mean, in thirty days, we will face over a hundred million Blood Demon Army, a Heroic Spirit Level Blood Demon, and a full four hundred and sixty-five powerful King Tiers?"

"This is a conservative estimate," Chu Xiu said calmly, "We also need to consider the buff provided by the expanding Sea of Blood, and in the depths of the sea, possibly more powerful creatures exist. It’s not surprising if two or three more Heroic Spirit Level monsters appear."

These words made everyone present show nearly desperate expressions.

The largest Blood Demon tide they had experienced was far less than one percent of this scale, and even that was an unimaginable bitter battle causing significant losses to the base.

And this didn’t consider the presence of a strong Heroic Spirit Level entity on the other side!

If a fight truly broke out, a single Heroic Spirit could destroy their entire base!

What’s the point of fighting?

Aurora smiled wryly, "I originally thought Mr. Chu, your request for us was to use our base’s defense system, but if the enemy truly reaches the scale you mentioned, even if our Fire Cannons were a hundred times more, it’s absolutely impossible to hold them back."

"Do you perhaps think there’s nuclear weaponry hidden in our base?"

After some thought, Aurora came up with the only possibility.

However, Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "I’ve already scanned your base, naturally knowing you only have a few unusable abandoned warheads."

"Then I must say, we should start organizing an escape now," Aurora said.

"I advise against that idea," Chu Xiu said, "You couldn’t possibly run faster than the Blood Demons, and they’ve already been continuously arriving nearby. Once you leave the base’s modern weapon defense line, you’ll die faster than anyone."

After speaking, Chu Xiu glanced at everyone and smiled, "However, if you don’t care about the civilians, General Tier Awakened might have a chance to escape."

These words made everyone’s expressions change unpredictably.

"Bang!"

At this moment, the conference room’s long table was knocked, and the big man with a giant axe said, "Mr. Chu, you don’t have to test us anymore. We are not fools. Naturally, we know that even if we escape, it’s just a struggle for survival.

"Even if I am to die, I, Zhuo Ao, will die fighting to protect my family, not in the endless pursuit and despair of the Blood Demons!"

Zhuo Ao’s words led to a chorus of agreement, but some remained silent, while Chu Xiu remained indifferent and said, "I don’t care how you handle the morale issue internally; that’s up to you to solve."

"But since you have the determination, I won’t waste any more words and will tell you my plan."

Hearing this, everyone perked up their ears, curious to know what methods Chu Xiu could have in the face of such a hopeless and disproportionate power struggle.

"It’s actually quite simple. A frontal confrontation is definitely not feasible, so what we need to consider is how to conduct a ’decapitation strike,’" Chu Xiu said.

Upon hearing this, Aurora couldn’t help but frown, "But according to what you said, isn’t that Blood Demon hiding within the Sea of Blood? Given the current enemy and our power disparity, the opponent could easily keep hiding, and their army alone would be enough to crush us."
