The Divine Race starfield became humanity's first line of defense. However, for Ye Yun, the threat to the human starfield would not come from the Divine Race, but from the ninth universe of a higher plane, or even the first universe where the demon butterfly resided.
Previously, Yue Di had said that it would take the demon butterfly at least two more years to reach the tenth universe. But from the Divine Race member named Jianan, Ye Yun saw the ambition of this woman, the demon butterfly. Her goal was not just the first and second universes; her ambitions encompassed all ten universes!
With the power of one race, enslaving myriad starfields and hundreds of thousands of cultivating races, one could imagine the power of this Muwu clan.
According to Ye Yun's estimation, with the Muwu clan's planning, they would reach the tenth universe in less than a year! Ye Yun's own strength was already considerable, but humanity's overall strength lagged far, far behind!
"Time is not on my side!" Ye Yun was very troubled by this. Even if Wang Chen broke through to the Monarch realm, with the demon butterfly's power, he, Wang Chen, and the Wanderer would be no match for that woman's army. After all, she had plundered the wealth of several universes, and must have many trump cards.
Unless…
Only one possibility remained: his own strength must break through again!
Ye Yun and the Wanderer returned to his floating dojo in the universe.
"General, this is…"
Seeing Ye Yun return, Zhou Ningdong and the others hurried over. After all, Ye Yun had been gone for many days, and within the Heavenly Dao, Fengle City had already endured several waves of attacks from alien races due to the mission's commencement. Fortunately, they were only probing attacks. As soon as the enemies left the teleportation array, they were met with attacks from various city defense structures on the city walls, and almost no alien could reach the foot of the walls.
Seeing Ye Yun return with a strange humanoid monster, they were stunned. Of the four thousand troops here, apart from Wang Chen, everyone else was seeing an alien race in the real world for the first time.
"This guy is my new subordinate, belonging to the Wanderer race. He'll be the commander of the Fifth Legion from now on." Ye Yun glanced at the Wanderer with a look of disdain, as the fellow's face was covered in pimples, which was completely contrary to human aesthetics.
"Hello everyone, I am the boss's subordinate, Wanderer. You can call me Little Lang. From now on, we are all family, so please take care of me."
The Wanderer said this while wiping his hands on his tattered clothes, then proceeded to shake hands with everyone. He had just learned this from his divine sense on Blue Star. What about the dignity of a master, or the integrity of a strong individual? All nonsense. What could be better than clinging to a powerful backer?
"General…"
Zhou Ningdong looked at Ye Yun, wanting to speak but hesitating.
"It's alright. Although this guy calls himself my subordinate, he's actually my slave. I've already planted a mark on him." Ye Yun saw Zhou Ningdong's expression and knew what he was worried about.
However, the Wanderer next to him was dumbfounded.
Was it necessary to be so blunt? I'm at the mid-Monarch realm, you know. Where else can you find such an awesome subordinate with a lantern?
Most importantly, how could his own subordinates respect him in the future? His strength was formidable, but his status was far below that of Zhou Ningdong and the others.
"General, during the time you were away, our Fengle City was attacked twelve times by various Divine Cities. However, their strength was generally not very high, and they were likely probing attacks," Zhou Ningdong said, first giving the Wanderer a strange look before explaining.
"Oh? Was it one wave per day, or an average of one wave per day?"
Ye Yun had been gone for exactly twelve days.
"It was one wave per day. And they were all small squadrons. Marching and preparing for war require a certain amount of time for pre-battle preparations, especially for the attacking party. The deployment of various professional personnel alone takes quite some time," Zhou Ningdong said with a smile.
"That's not right! If it were the real world or an attack between players, that might be the case. But these are natives of the Divine City; they don't need to reallocate professionals." Ye Yun immediately realized that his in-game mission was an indefinite one, so those guys wouldn't be rushing over.
Ye Yun wasn't afraid of their army; he was afraid of these Divine Cities joining forces and planning a unified attack at a specific time. Although the teleportation array only occupied three square kilometers, if troops could continuously pour in through it, Fengle City's existing defenses would be hard-pressed to cope.
Most importantly, if the teleportation array in his city lord's mansion were exploited by the Divine Race, they could completely tie down his Sky Eagle Arrow Towers. Without the Sky Eagle Arrow Towers, the overall defense would be weakened by more than half!
Ye Yun immediately focused his mind on the game to check his mission.
