Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 778: Chapter 364 Countermeasures_3

This made the Doll blush even more because her method… couldn’t be spoken about.

Mo He and Ma Hongyi’s gazes swept past the Doll standing to the side and the Little Mad King a few steps away. The smile on their faces grew more amused.

Then, Mo He seriously said, “Thank you for slaying Ye Han, avenging our Family members and friends. You will always be an honored guest of the Mo Family.”

“He deserved to die, I was already planning to kill him,” Li Yelai replied, shaking his head, and took out a bracelet from his pocket: “This should belong to you, return it to its rightful owner.”

“Please keep it, it is rightfully your spoils of war,” an elder of the Mo Family spoke: “Its original owner greatly admired you, had once said he wanted to measure his strength against you in a contest, and if he lost, he would join Champion Team One and become your subordinate… Now, it has come to your hands, which is also a kind of fate.”

Li Yelai nodded silently, with a sense of regret and sorrow. If that beast Ye Han hadn’t killed and taken treasures, he would have gained another companion.

The Ma Family and Mo Family both chose to stay within the Immortal Palace. In their words, they had no retreat left. As Families of the same Giant City Circle, they had a responsibility to suppress this Calamity.

In fact, the Mo Family had planned to send Mo He out of the Immortal Palace because she was injured and her movement was impeded, and as the core Heavenly Pride of the Family, she could not afford any mishaps.

However, Mo He said that without her coordination ability, the strength of the human battle group would inevitably decline. She insisted on staying within the Immortal Palace.

Afterward, representatives from various Families arrived, and the meeting commenced.

Captain Yin Huo introduced the accurate information about this Calamity to everyone. The Calamity was the legendary Time Tree, with enemies coming from the future. Their number and strength were unknown…

And proposed a solution, to destroy the anchors before the branches of the Time Tree fully grew.

“If we succeed, we can completely dissolve this Calamity. A captain has already led a team to investigate. The good news is, one of the anchors has been accidentally destroyed by the Night General Captain, so we have fewer enemies to face.”

A Family powerhouse asked, “But that was just luck, if other anchors are also located inside palaces, we would have to capture the palaces before we can destroy the anchors. If some palaces are extremely difficult, we estimate we wouldn’t have a chance before they have grown.”

“Indeed. That, we can only leave up to luck. If the branches of the Time Tree grow completely, we’ll have to face the enemies from the future directly,” replied Yin Huo with a nod.

“Can we defeat them? The enemy can cross time, their strength must be very powerful,” another strong individual inquired.

“This is the Divine Treasure Immortal Palace, if Overlord-level and above powerhouses appear, the Immortal Palace will eliminate them for us,” said Yin Huo: “Of course, since the enemy comes from the future, they will inevitably be stronger than us in intelligence. They might even have a means to counter the immortal palace’s Thunder calamities, so if we’re unable to overpower them, we’ll have to immediately give up and evacuate the Immortal Palace. Trap the Calamity within it.”

“But…” another official captain interjected, “This makes it all more unpredictable, and since the enemy comes from the future, they might have a way to breach the Immortal Palace. And the exit… it’s too close to Giant City…”

“Indeed, but for now, this is the only method we have.”

Three steps: to destroy the anchors and extinguish the sprouts of the Calamity.

If we fail, then we’ll move to the second step.

Confronting the future enemies head-on, suppress them, then forcibly destroy the anchors. Block the subsequent enemies and thereby suppress the Calamity.

If we fail again, everyone will have to leave the Immortal Palace, guarding the entrance to the Immortal Palace. With Kings and the Supreme standing guard outside, it is very unlikely that we will lose hold.

But abandoning the Immortal Palace also means giving the enemy time and opportunity to prepare. The enemy might grow even stronger.

No one knows how many enemies emerged from the timeline.
