Chapitre 1363. The spring dream disappears without a trace; final preparation

Han Xiao and the rest retreated from the battlefield and returned to the main base in the rear. The World Tree Army had yet to break through here, and the flames of war had not touched it.

The armies of the three universal civilizations and various major organizations had already lined up in a long line. They entered various Multi-Dimensional Vehicles to Open the Sky, and returned to the explored universe.

The group boarded the evacuating capital ship and watched the battlefield in real time as they waited their turn.

The three universal civilizations have already begun withdraw your forces and stop your losses. The battlefront formed by the starships receded like a tide.

Kant stared at this for a while before shaking his head.

— It looks like the three universal civilizations have decided to completely abandon the interception circle.

— Fighting to the death is useless. This will only increase our losses, so we should naturally retreat,” Manison said calmly.

“However, once we retreat, we will not be able to prevent the World Tree from approaching our territory. Sooner or later we will have to start a war on our own territory.

Clotty shook his head. Since Reeve and the others had woken up, he had become more talkative and rarely acted as if he was out of reach. The group casually chatted about the battle to calm their emotions from the bloody battle earlier.

However, Han Xiao did not join their conversation. Instead, he stood aside and watched the autopsy of Aurora.

After watching for a while, he suddenly realized that many of the Supers above Grade A were sweating.He couldn’t help but ask:

—How are things going?

—That’s strange. “We have already loosened the seal by more than 95%, leaving only the last thin layer. However, we encountered unprecedented resistance, and the last piece of the crystal seal wall suddenly became indestructible, as if there was an infinite power sustaining its existence.

—Really?

Han Xiao raised his eyebrows and immediately thought of the characteristics of Illusion – Mind Seal.

It seemed that the target hit by this move would be trapped in a dream created by her desire. The more real she feels about it, the stronger the seal will be.

He looked at Aurora intently. With the layers of the seal broken, her expression was no longer blank.At that moment, she closed her eyes, frowned, and feigned slight pain, as if to say, “Don’t disturb my waking dream.”

will disappear, so she took the illusion more seriously and took the initiative to stabilize the seal and resist the revealers?” ?»

Han Xiao’s lips twitched and he helplessly looked away. He patted Kasuya’s shoulder and said,

—So can you open it or not?

—Don’t worry about it. Although the seal barrier is much stronger, with so many people working together, we will be able to penetrate it sooner or later.” Kasuyi did not even look back.

Han Xiao could only trust him and wait patiently .

After a while, Kasuya and the others suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. They were just about to say they had succeeded.

However, before they could say anything, Aurora suddenly opened her eyes and woke up from her coma.

—No!

A sharp scream shocked everyone. Even the A-class Supers who were analyzing the situation nearby stopped talking and looked around in surprise.

At first, the milkmaid was glad to wake up, but everyone was shocked by this scream and confused.

After seeing a pair of shocked eyes staring at her, Aurora left out of a daze and quickly closed her mouth. However, her expression was still a bit stunned, as if she wasn’t used to the feeling of leaving a dream. She tried to determine if it was real or an illusion.

However, her feelings and memories gradually returned to normal, and Aurora slowly confirmed that she was truly awake this time.

At that moment Han Xiao walked out of the crowd and stood in front of Aurora. He touched her head and said uneasily,

Your mental seal has been broken. How are you feeling?

Aurora looked at Han Xiao, and her tender face suddenly turned red. She quickly turned her head to the side and looked away.

—I’m fine… And you?

—What problems could I have? Han Xiao saw her strange expression and couldn’t help but wonder. – What did you dream about in print?

I… I…

Aurora stuttered as if she didn’t want to speak.

This time, Hila came over and patted her on the head.

—What did you dream about? Why aren’t your memories open to me?

“D-don’t ask!”It doesn’t matter anyway…

Aurora glanced at Hila before turning away in shock. She then remembered what she experienced in her dream, and her face became even redder, as if she was about to bleed.

Seeing her strange behavior, Han Xiao and Hila exchanged surprised glances. However, since Aurora didn’t want to say it, they couldn’t bother to force her. Since she was already awake, there was no need to go into details.Perhaps it was because she had a secret in her heart and felt uncomfortable talking about it.

Han Xiao pointed his finger at Aurora and checked her condition. Seeing that Aurora’s properties had returned to normal, he did not worry about Aurora’s sleep.

Seeing this, everyone stepped forward to show their concern, pushing Han Xiao and Hila aside.

Aurora’s emotions gradually returned to normal, but she still did not dare to look Han Xiao in the eye.Suddenly, she thought of something and asked with a serious expression:

—You are all here. Is the battle over? How are the casualties doing?

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone’s expressions stiffened slightly and they sighed. The atmosphere quickly turned gloomy and they began to talk about the combat situation after she fainted.

Aurora was shocked after hearing about the casualties this time.Then, with some guilt and disappointment, she said,

“I… I’m sorry. I was careless and fell for the enemy’s trick. I was helpful and more people died…

“It’s not your fault. This is all the work of the enemy. You’re just a victim,” Han Xiao rubbed his head, and her soft blonde hair slid into his palm.

—But if the enemy uses this move again, I…

Han Xiao waved his hand and interrupted her.He smiled and said:

Don’t be afraid. The Tree King who attacked you is already locked in amber. He won’t threaten you anymore.

You are still being so kind to me…cough,cough.

Aurora subconsciously opened her mouth, but halfway through, she suddenly remembered that it was not a dream. She quickly closed her mouth, lowered her head, and coughed to hide the abnormal emotions in her eyes.

However, no one paid any attention to her expression.

– It’s all thanks to Blackstar capturing this Tree King. If they had sealed Aurora in the next battle, we would have suffered heavy losses like today.” Milizaus shook his head.

Guzar sighed softly.

—From this point of view, it’s already a good thing that Blackstar got rid of future troubles. Just feel sorry for those comrades who sacrificed themselves…

You can’t say that.Since the enemy has this method, he will use it sooner or later, so our losses are inevitable. When the enemy first used this method, Blackstar took the opportunity to capture him. He has already done his best to minimize costs in order to prevent future losses,” Beiger immediately said.

After hearing this, everyone thought about it and felt that it made sense.

It was the enemy’s trump card, and Blackstar couldn’t stop them from using it beforehand, so they couldn’t blame Blackstar. Getting rid of this hidden danger the first time was already the best outcome.

Ames came over and patted Aurora on the head.

you’re all right. This is more important than anything else.

“Master, I’m…very sorry.”

Aurora lowered her head timidly.Her face flushed with guilt, and she didn’t dare look up.

Ames, however, understood her and reassured her.

—It’s all right , Do not blame yourself. Although you didn’t use your ability to protect me, it’s not your fault. I’m fine

— Hmm…

Hearing that, Aurora felt even more embarrassed. She clasped her hands and buried her head even deeper, almost like an ostrich.

Finally it was their turn to leave, and everyone stopped talking. The spacecraft followed the fleet into the Multi-Dimensional Sky Opening Transport Device, and the two huge mechanical rings began to rotate. The lights connected and flickered, sending everyone back to the Flickering World.

After Han Xiao and the others retreated from the battlefield, the situation developed exactly as Simon had said.The defensive lines of various war zones were breached, and the World Tree Army entered from different areas and quickly spread. A vicious snowball-like cycle occurred, and the intercepting circle gradually became riddled with holes.

Because there was no way to turn the tide, the three universal civilizations did not continue to recruit Supers above Grade A and did not entered into direct confrontation.They continued to bring up their troops and vehicles to recoup their losses so that the World Tree fleet would not completely destroy them.

This process lasted for about ten days before the World Tree Army completely broke the interception circle . The three universal civilizations also withdrew all the fleets and equipment that were to be returned, and those that could not be taken were destroyed on the spot.From the interception circle built over a year ago, all that remains is countless metallic debris floating in the universe like an artificial asteroid belt.

* * *

In the explored universe, the upper echelons of the three universal civilizations and the command center held a follow-up battle meeting after the disappearance of the interception circle.

Hang Xiao was the only representative of Supers above Grade A.

In the large conference room, the leaders of the three universal civilizations listened to the war report with a straight face. As Commander-in-Chief of the Interception Circle, Simon read out the strategic analysis.

—… The Interception Circle has been abolished. We have lost the biggest barrier preventing the progress of the World Tree. The war has entered a new phase.

Last year, we sent teams of engineers to move towards the Flickering World from the Intercept Circle, setting up traps and fortifications along the way, in preparation for this day. When the World Tree starts moving towards our territory and enters a vast strategic area, we can pursue it and obstruct it.

—Although we can’t stop their progress, we can at least slow them down…

At that moment, Marbrus interrupted him, knocked on the table and asked:

— This will not solve the root of the problem. Can you think of a way to build another blockade?

Hearing this, Simon shook his head and sighed.

– Forgive me for being blunt, but before we find the main body of the World Tree, all our strategies are only to treat the symptoms… We need to invest a lot of resources to build more one round of interception. I believe that with this experience, the World Tree will use the same method to attack next time. Our troops will again be heavily damaged and we will fall directly into their trap.

– In addition, the choice of location is also a problem.Most of the areas in this strategic zone are also places we have never gone, so we can’t go there by accident. The earliest construction team to set off would only be able to build a new interception circle one year from the World Tree. Time is too tight.

—If we send a new batch of construction crews from the Flickerworld border, we’ll have enough time to build an interception circle, but…

– But what? Louis asked.

Simon frowned and told the truth:

The Department of War Strategy disagrees with this plan. Given the speed and drift time of the Kunde survivors, we have already calculated the approximate distance between the World Tree and us.At their speed, it will take them about eleven years to reach our territory. With our obstacles and delays, this number will be increased, but not for long.

Dad immediately asked a question.

—Eleven years… That’s enough build a stronger interception circle. Why not?

– It can be done, but the Department of Defense Strategy believes that strengthening the defenses in the border areas is the best choice.Using destructive methods to develop the frontier of the Flickering World, which has yet to be fully explored, squeeze out all the resources of the planets in these areas, and then turn at least five star clusters into desert belts of the universe. We will not leave a single hair for the World Tree and build a line of defense here.

—This is our homeland after all.Thus, this would not only facilitate the movement of support troops, but also significantly reduce the size of the defensive line, saving troops costs. In addition, the battlefield is not far from our home, which can also stimulate the resistance of the entire universe. Establishing a new blockade in an unexplored area countless miles away would take too much of our strength.We will be drawn into a war of attrition, which the World Tree is well versed in, which will be even more disadvantageous…” Simon explained.

Hearing this, the upper echelons discussed the pros and cons of this plan.

The leaders of the three universal civilizations thought for a while before turning and looking at Han Xiao.

—Blackstar, what do you think?

Han Xiao shook his head and said,

I don’t have too many opinions, but it is very necessary to strengthen our defenses. Instead of leaving these planets to be devoured by the World Tree, we could do our best and use the Planet Destroyer to develop the planets on the border of the Flickering World so that the enemies cannot resupply. That way, even if they attack, we won’t lose much.

He’s already done his best.Compared to the terrible beginning in his previous life, the position of the three universal civilizations at present was many times better. He couldn’t give any more suggestions regarding the war.

After all, the direction of the war between the three universal civilizations and the World Tree was completely different from his previous life, and he couldn’t be sure of the final direction of each plan. The best choice now was to trust the professional military.

“In at least eleven years, the World Tree will be able to invade the three universal civilizations… This is the final period of preparation, I should make good use of it.”

Han Xiao took a deep breath.

In the way of the World Tree advancement, the three universal civilizations most likely did not need high-level fighters to chase or stop them.This meant that they, like Supers above Grade A, didn’t have to be on standby all the time and were free to schedule.

He planned to spend some time growing above Grade A seeds , in hopes of giving birth to more Supers above Grade A, and allowing Carlot to grow up as soon as possible.

On the other hand, he could also take the opportunity to mind his own business.The experience provided by the players will surely be enough to make him pass level 360 and complete his promotion within a year. The Mechanic’s strongest period was not when he had just advanced.

The Mechanic’s pinnacle can only be reached after his mech army and equipment are fully upgraded!

The last eleven years of training had been a rare opportunity for him to digest his advanced strength!

After these two clashes with the Tree Kings, Han Xiao had already noticed his current weakness. Although he could defeat Heart Tree King or Conquering Tree King in a one-on-one battle, they were all experts of the same level. They had their own explosive cards, so it was almost impossible for him to quickly defeat the other side. In addition, the battlefield environment was difficult, and the mechanical army was the biggest target.There were too many factors that affected their combat power.

Although his energy level was very high, he was still essentially a peak super above grade A, and there was no qualitative change . Only through power sublimation could he solve this problem.

“I hope I can give the World Tree a ‘surprise’ the next time we fight!”

Han Xiao narrowed his eyes.

However, those thoughts were suppressed in his heart.

He knew very well that the most important task at the moment was not these plans, and waiting for the Oathkeeper to collect a new Sanctuary Key and he will enter the Sanctuary again. He would use the awakening truth to strengthen the faith of the entire group of Supers above Grade A!
