174: Chapter 172 is definitely enough.

Gu Yuan did not turn around.

"What's the rush?"

His voice was very calm.

Calm enough to make one's blood run cold.

"The ones we truly need to guard against have never been the natives inside that membrane."

"A mere peak Level 3 Transcendent isn't worth our effort."

A trace of disdain appeared on Gu Yuan's face.

It was not arrogance, but rather because they possessed the strength.

The so-called three-billion-strong army didn't just consist of three billion people.

It meant that there were three billion warriors capable of fighting in the Boundary Sea.

And the total number of people in their entire fleet reached a full forty billion.

If deployed at full strength, they could power a mid-stage Level 4 Transcendent mechanical god.

In the Boundary Sea levels, the gap between each level is like the difference between heaven and earth.

Between a peak Level 3 Transcendent and a mid-stage Level 4 Transcendent, there is a difference of several thousand times; what could Lin Mo possibly use to fight?

A mere peak Level 3 Transcendent can be wiped out with a flip of a hand!

Gu Yuan raised his hand and swiped across the holographic screen.

Pieces of intelligence popped up.

The first image was the wanted poster of the White Dragon King.

"These are the guys we need to guard against."

"White Dragon King."

"Ranked 342nd on the Boundary Sea Wanted List."

Gu Yuan sneered.

"We let him enter first previously just to have him test the situation of the nirvana god fetus for us."

"By now, he has likely realized it."

"That's why he's hiding."

"He wants to hide in the shadows, watch us and other factions fight to the death, and then come out to reap the rewards."

The expressions of several high-ranking generals on the bridge darkened slightly.

Gu Yuan pulled up a second star map.

It was the coordinates of the eighteenth layer of the Abyss Demon World.

"And Cecilia."

"Her true form has already used the Abyss teleportation array to run back to the Demon World to call for reinforcements."

"That woman is no pushover."

"If she really brings the Demon World legion to descend, the situation will only become more chaotic."

Gu Ming's forehead began to break out in cold sweat.

Gu Yuan continued to tap his fingers on the metal table.

The crisp tapping sound echoed one after another in the quiet bridge.

"As for the Myriad Worlds Peace Company..."

He scoffed.

"Those hypocritical profiteers, on the surface, sent special envoys to negotiate some trade agreement."

"In private, their law enforcement fleet must already be on the warp path."

"Everyone is eyeing this world."

"And our tribe's talent is precisely the key to opening this world."

"Now, everyone is eyeing us."

"If we force our way into the world now, the Demon World army will descend, the Peace Company will take advantage of the chaos, and the White Dragon King will be waiting to stab us in the back."

Gu Yuan turned around, his cold gaze sweeping over everyone.

"At that point, how much certainty does our Tali Tribe have in seizing the seed of god?"

A chill ran down Gu Ming's back.

He finally understood why Gu Yuan had delayed ordering the all-out attack.

It wasn't out of fear.

It was waiting for all the orioles to show themselves.

"The Commander is wise."

Gu Ming lowered his head.

"Then what is our current strategy?"

"Wait."

A cruel smile appeared on Gu Yuan's face.

"Wait for the World-Eater Beast."

Hearing these four words, all the Tali Tribe generals on the bridge showed expressions of excitement.

Gu Yuan looked at the faintly glowing Primordial World in the star map.

His eyes were like those of someone looking at a fruit about to ripen.

"Calculating the time, there are at most three days left."

"Once the World-Eater Beast arrives, regardless of what mice are hiding inside or how many orioles are outside,"

"it will swallow the Primordial World and that layer of boundary membrane into its stomach in one gulp."

"Then the mothership will initiate a hyper-dimensional warp and take the World-Eater Beast back to our home base."

"Once we return to our nest, we can slowly digest the seed of god."

Gu Yuan's smile became increasingly chilling.

"Let those fools from the White Dragon King, the Demon World, and the Peace Company go drink the wind in the empty void."

Inside the bridge, the high-ranking Tali Tribe generals finally couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha!"

"The Commander still thinks most comprehensively!"

"They thought we wanted to break the world, but in reality, we're going to pack up the entire world and take it away!"

"The seed of god is destined to belong to the Tali Tribe!"

The laughter grew louder and louder.

But just at this moment.

Beep—beep—beep—!

The ear-piercing red alarm exploded without warning.

The red lights inside the bridge spun frantically.

The laughter cut off instantly.

"Alarm!"

"Extremely high energy level reaction detected at coordinate 0-0-1 directly ahead!"

"The Primordial World will is actively opening a void passage!"

The smile on Gu Yuan's face vanished instantly.

Actively opening a passage?

This is illogical.

The Primordial World will is currently under the pressure of a three-billion-strong army.

At a time like this, it's already struggling to desperately repair the boundary membrane; how could it possibly actively open the door to let someone out?

Unless it's crazy.

"Switch to the main screen."

Gu Yuan said in a deep voice.

The main screen flickered once.

The image instantly locked onto the pitch-black void.

In the center surrounded by countless dark gold warships.

Outside that huge bubble of the Primordial World.

A blinding golden crack, like an opened eye of a god, violently tore through the endless darkness.

A golden beam of light descended.

A figure slowly walked out from within.

He was not wearing battle armor.

He had no shields activated.

He didn't even have a weapon.

He just stood there with his hands in his pockets, facing 1.2 million Boundary Sea warships.

As if he were out for a stroll.

Gu Ming's pupils constricted.

"Commander..."

"It's Lin Mo!"

The raging void storms of the Boundary Sea automatically subsided beside him.

The entire ship's alarm blared frantically.

"Alarm! Unknown high-energy reaction!"

"Identity confirmed: Primordial World native, Lin Mo!"

Gu Yuan stood on the bridge, his hands pressing against the metal console, staring intently at the figure on the screen.

It was this person who wiped out General Gu Sha's vanguard army and, an hour ago, forcibly smashed Commander Gue's detachment.

He even tore apart a Level 3 mechanical god that had reached peak Level 3 Transcendent combat power.

"Shall we attack?"

Gu Yuan did not immediately order fire.

"Open the public channel for the entire fleet and connect to the regional void broadcast."

Gu Yuan adjusted his magnificent commander's cloak and spoke coldly.

Compared to killing Lin Mo directly, he valued Lin Mo's combat power more.

A hitter at peak Level 3 Transcendent is considered a scarce resource in the entire Boundary Sea.

A vast voice boomed through the Boundary Sea, forming visible spatial sound waves.

"Lin Mo."

"You have indeed surprised me."

"A primary Primordial World could actually nurture a combat power like you, a peak Level 3 Transcendent."

"General Gu Sha and Commander Gue dying by your hands is not at all unjust."

Gu Yuan's voice carried the condescension of an absolute superior.

"But our flagship's combat power is at least five thousand times yours; killing you is as easy as flipping a hand."

"I admire your strength."

"Therefore, I, representing the Tali Tribe, give you a supreme opportunity."

"Submit to us and hand over the seed of god."

"I will let bygones be bygones regarding your crimes of killing my clansmen."

"Not only that, I can apply to the home base to grant you the position of an honorary foreign god-general of the Tali Tribe."

The voice echoed in the void.

Lin Mo hovered in the void, not speaking.

He looked up.

Ahead, in all directions—above, middle, and below—densely packed Tali Tribe warriors had completely surrounded him.

Like locusts filling the sky.

A rough glance confirmed that the number three billion was not exaggerated at all.

Lin Mo swallowed hard.

Not long ago, he was complaining that the 200,000 Tali Tribe members in his Inner World were completely insufficient.

Well, now this is absolutely enough!
