Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

Chapter 319: Chapter 181: Calamity’s Energy Level 3

Furthermore, Chu Xiu felt that the Calamity might be deliberately showing weakness at the moment, and there’s a chance it could actually do as it said and win over one or two human Awakened, which means he has to be wary of others...

”So, what is the government’s current plan?” Chu Xiu inquired.

Qin Xiang did not speak but instead pushed a small player in front of Chu Xiu.

”This is the footage from our preliminary reconnaissance.”

Chu Xiu looked down, and the display showed complete darkness, nothing could be seen. Suddenly, a faint light flickered, briefly illuminating the surrounding environment, revealing only a few blurred images, which were of steel structures, some of which were covered with dark red vines like blood vessels.

And after a few seconds, the screen shook violently, as if the recording equipment was attacked by some kind of assault, and then the screen went black.

”Currently, the information we have gathered is limited. We can only roughly determine that at the bottom of that deep pit, there is a massive, intact military base!”

”The land area alone covers at least thirty square kilometers, and there’s a high likelihood of complex underground structures!”

”Moreover, this military base contains comprehensive defense facilities, such as anti-aircraft machine guns, automated fire cannons, and minefields—although these modern technologies might not seem cutting-edge to us, after corruption, they possess special power.”

”Combined with those corrupted creatures that have not engaged us directly, the exploration becomes extremely dangerous!”

”And more troubling is that, according to the latest intelligence, the bottom of the pit is a full thirteen thousand meters away from our stronghold, making it very difficult to deliver firepower support!”

Qin Xiang’s words made Chu Xiu furrow his brow.

In such a situation, even he would be taking significant risks by venturing in rashly.

”Therefore, I hope you can abandon this exploration. There are many opportunities in the Corpse Demon World, and it’s not lacking this one. Let’s leave this to the High Tier Awakened to handle,” Qin Xiang advised.

To this, Chu Xiu simply smiled lightly: ”Senior Qin, I trust that the government’s elite will have gathered more information than this and prepared more than just this.”

”All you need to do is inform me of the government’s arrangements, and I will evaluate the pros and cons myself.”

Seeing that Chu Xiu was not intimidated at all, Qin Xiang sighed and chuckled bitterly, saying, ”You really are stubborn and won’t listen to advice... Well, I’m too lazy to bother with it—see for yourself.”

With that, Qin Xiang showed Chu Xiu a strange chart: ”This is the energy density of the Calamity we’ve been monitoring with special artifacts.”

”Currently, its energy level ranges between King Tier and Heroic Spirit. Considering the efficiency of the Calamity’s energy usage, it can be roughly determined that its combat power is between Advanced King Tier and Top King Tier.”

”Optimistically, an average King Tier Awakened could stand against it; conservatively, it might require two or three working together to expel it.”

”Moreover, due to our lack of knowledge about the opponent’s possible special abilities, the battle could be full of unforeseen variables.”

”Simultaneously, there are at least three to six King Tier combatants lurking within the base.”

”Our plan is to first use firepower to clear out the defensive facilities of the underground military base, while maximally reducing the density of corrupted creatures.”

”Next, four King Tiers will lead elite teams as the first wave of exploration teams to venture in; their goal is not to eliminate the Calamity but to gather intelligence as much as possible.”

”Once a foothold is established, other teams will be allowed to enter.”

”Originally, to be cautious, we were not planning to let anyone other than the King Tier teams venture deeply, but since this indeed presents an opportunity, we don’t have the right to prevent it. Therefore, for others, we’ll adopt a freely formed team registration style.”

”So, after hearing this, are you still planning to proceed?”

Chu Xiu did not answer; he only showed a contemplative expression in his eyes.

In other words, the worst-case scenario is that there’s a Top King Tier below, accompanied by six Ordinary King Tiers?

Seeing that not only was he not afraid, but also earnestly contemplating, Qin Xiang couldn’t help but ask, ”Honestly, tell me, do you already have the strength of a King Tier?”

Chu Xiu smiled, making no comment.

Qin Xiang sighed lightly: ”Originally, I was determined to stop you from entering the deep pit at all costs. After all, as a Civilization Envoy, it’s not only about you but also about the future development of our humanity.”

”But... your talent truly exceeds my expectations. For a prodigy like you, I don’t want to limit you with our ordinary thinking. Just go with what you think is best.”

”However, if you insist on entering the deep pit, I have one condition.”

”What condition?” Chu Xiu asked.

”That is, you must take at least three teammates and treat this action as a prelude to the Ancient Trials.”
