My Weekly Refreshing Mentor Spirit-Chapter 374 - 310: The Hunting Plan_2
So, after calm consideration, Xue Dili sat there in silence.
He knew that the Interstellar Corps needed his strength now.
His power, which could reach Tier Five under certain conditions, was among the few with spatial abilities.
The entire plan to hunt the Ninth Apostle by the Interstellar Corps was based on the spatial abilities of Xue Dili and the young general.
After realizing Xue Dili’s ability to open Teleportation Gates and unleash Space Slashes in any area, they combined it with the young general’s zero-frame initiation Space Jump to formulate a bold plan.
That is, the hunting plan!
The core of the plan involved the Interstellar Corps’ Tier Five forces holding off the Apostle’s War Soldiers, support, and other powers, while concentrating efforts to besiege the Ninth Apostle, depleting its energy, and inflicting serious injury.
And after this series of plans, Xue Dili and Song Quan (the young general) would use their special spatial abilities.
The World Consciousness’s space lock didn’t disrupt space but merely neutralized the basic Space Technique within its domain. However, the Ninth Apostle possessed the ability to forcibly establish space transmission and was also a rare space ability user.
This is why the Interstellar Corps has wounded it several times but failed to contain it.
And now, when it attempted to use spatial abilities to escape again, Xue Dili and the young general would release dual spaces, swapping positions, to disrupt its transmission.
Only a space ability user can counter another, and according to the Mimic Venerable King’s calculations, this plan had a success rate of over 60%.
Furthermore, even if the plan failed, it was likely to force the Ninth Apostle out of transmission, and if luck was on their side, the chaotic space disrupted by Xue Dili’s Space Slash might even halve the Ninth Apostle.
He stared silently at the plan.
He hadn’t expected that the attached ability of Dimension Slash would become one of the most crucial abilities this time.
Could the Space Slash truly bisect the Ninth Apostle?
Xue Dili himself couldn’t believe it; the essence of Dimension Slash was just to graft parts of reality space onto the Consciousness Space, forming a halved space fault.
Essentially, in the area disturbed by Dimension Slash, one half of the slash is in the real space, and the other half is the entrance to Consciousness Space.
When a complete object steps into the boundary between real space and Consciousness Space, it would be split in two by the dislocated space!
In essence, this Space Slash is more like a "partial shell space transmission" ability.
Yet it seemed the Interstellar Corps valued this ability greatly, and even after discovering Xue Dili’s powers, knowing he could set up an Innovation Era and summon a Tier Five Giant God of Destruction, or more Beast of Evil, they still advised against using the Beast of Evil power.
Instead, just using the Space Slash was enough to carry out this assassination.
In reality, Xue Dili’s role was merely to slash once when the Ninth Apostle attempted to escape, taking no more than 0.1 seconds.
Yet, that slash was one of the most critical steps in the entire plan!
So when Xue Dili saw the disastrous state of Giant Beast Star and prepared to provide support, he was stopped by the Interstellar Corps.
"When the true shining of the blade of light occurs, that’s your mission; if we let the Apostle go today, the fate awaiting this planet will not just be some insect swarm but endless despair."
Xue Dili took a deep breath, understanding that rationally, he should proceed as planned, and this seemed to be one of the rare opportunities to kill the Apostle.
But emotionally, he couldn’t bear to watch his students and countless others head into battle and end up as corpses on the battlefield.
In less than an hour, hundreds of thousands of soldiers had already perished, leaving no remains.
The coastline of West Sea City resembled a meat grinder, with life after life fed into it, only to emerge as minced flesh.
He didn’t blame the Interstellar Corps for failing to send reinforcements below because he knew that the other squads of the Interstellar Corps were holding back over 90% of the swarm numbers, meaning the people of Giant Beast Star faced only a small fraction of bugs.
Yet even those bugs were already at their limit.
Even in this catastrophe, if one were to choose a culprit, it would be challenging for Xue Dili to avoid blame.
After all, he was the one who sent the coordinates of the Super Iron Curtain into the cosmos...
Even though he didn’t know about the Mist Council at the time, even though he sent the coordinates to get the Interstellar Corps to educate the Super Iron Curtain.
But instead of the Interstellar Corps, it was the Apostle who came.
It was as if Xue Dili accidentally discovered an indigenous tribe with an oil field and casually sent a short video of this primitive tribe’s location online. Soon, the oil field was covered in mold, and the bald eagle came to take all the oil and even sold the tribe’s scalps for 10 US Dollars each.
Xue Dili didn’t kill the tribe, but the tribe died because of him...
...
Yet watching as the Insect Race Queen attacked the space station of Giant Beast Star, dropping numerous eggs onto the ground...
He saw the city visibly fall, the walls of West Sea City breached, and the swarms flooded into West Sea City, initiating the cruelest and bloodiest street battle in the city’s gravity device!
