Chapter 2157: Reinforcements!
Xiao Zheng and Hades’ sudden outburst directly shocked the world.
No one expected that their revenge would come so fiercely. Although the Holy Spirit Church absorbed many forces, after losing tens of thousands of people, it still suffered a severe blow.
Elmer was furious upon receiving this news.
Especially since Li Yue and Jiang Fan also came to confront him, as their losses were the greatest in the counterattack launched by Xiao Zheng and Hades.
"We can’t continue like this; the Evil God’s power is terrifying!" Li Yue said through gritted teeth, "I only brought twelve people from the Ancient World this time, and he killed seven of them in one go!"
"Elmer, you have to give me an explanation for this!"
"My side also suffered significant losses; of the sixteen people I brought, Xiao Zheng killed nine!" Jiang Fan said coldly, "If this continues, the few of us left won’t even be enough for him to kill!"
"Don’t worry, I will find a way to solve this." Elmer, though frustrated, still tried to console his two allies, "Even though the Evil God and his people have a slight advantage now, we are not entirely without the strength to fight them."
"After all, the Holy Spirit Church still stands. It’s just a few people who have been killed, and we can quickly replace those numbers."
Upon hearing his words, Li Yue sneered and said sarcastically, "Replace them? Easier said than done. Do you think those useless people can compare to the warriors we brought from the Ancient World? Combined, our three clans have lost a total of twenty Transcendent Realm warriors."
"Do you know how many resources and time it takes to cultivate so many Transcendent Realm warriors?"
"Of course I know, and it’s not just your subordinates who were lost. I also had four subordinates killed by the Netherworld King." Even with his good temper, Elmer was somewhat angry now.
"You only lost four people; our Witch Clan lost seven!" Li Yue said through clenched teeth again.
Jiang Fan raised his eyebrows but ultimately held back and did not speak.
He actually wanted to say that their clan had suffered the heaviest losses in yesterday’s battle. However, saying such things at this moment would surely be inappropriate.
Elmer continued, "So what? The dead cannot be brought back to life. If you’re really angry, you might as well go seek revenge against the Evil God like Michael did. Does taking it out on me solve anything?"
Upon hearing this, Li Yue instantly fell silent.
After all, he couldn’t possibly seek revenge against the Evil God. Even Quic and Michael had died at his hands. If he also went for revenge, it would be no different from seeking death.
"If that’s not possible, then what do you say we should do next?" Li Yue asked.
His tone had now softened a bit.
Elmer first snorted, then said, "Right now, there’s nothing we can do; their combat power is too strong. We need to amass our forces. I took some time last night to go to the barrier and explained some facts."
"In no more than three days, reinforcements will arrive."
A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Fan’s eyes as he asked, "Is this true? Wasn’t it said that when we left, it would take at least six months before the barrier’s power weakens again?"
Elmer replied, "The clan has found a way to temporarily suppress the barrier’s power. In three days, we will receive strong reinforcements."
"Will the Clan Leader come personally?" Li Yue asked, unable to hold back.
"No, although the clan has found a way to temporarily suppress the barrier’s power, the Clan Leader’s realm is too high and can’t pass through the barrier yet," Elmer replied. "The highest realm among the reinforcements this time should only be in the Creation Realm."
"The Creation Realm? It’s already good if a few more from the Creation Realm can come to help," Jiang Fan said. "At least we won’t have to struggle so hard by ourselves anymore."
"That’s right, so we only need to hold on for these three days, and we can win," Elmer said. "Therefore, during these three days, everyone must not expose themselves. As long as our Ancient Clan people do not suffer losses, it is enough."
"As for those useless ones, let them be cannon fodder and help us distract the enemy’s attention."
Jiang Fan and Li Yue were both very satisfied with his arrangements.
After discussing a few more details, the three of them finally dispersed.
Meanwhile.
After ceasing his near-mad killing spree, Xiao Zheng finally returned to the Sky Net headquarters.
At this moment, his expression was indifferent, with no trace of having just returned from a massacre outside. The others, including Long Qie, had gathered, and upon seeing his return, they all stood up.
"Mr. Xiao!"
Sensing the excitement in everyone’s hearts, Xiao Zheng first gave a slight smile, then gestured for them to sit down, saying, "No need to stand; let’s sit down and talk. I’m fine; you don’t need to worry about me."
Hearing his words, Long Qie and the others took their seats.
Xiao Zheng also found a place to sit and then said, "In this operation, although I killed many people from the Holy Spirit Church, unfortunately, I did not find Elmer, Li Yue, and Jiang Fan."
At this point, the identities of Elmer and the other two were no longer a secret.
Long Qie said, "It’s okay. As long as they are still alive in this world, we will eventually find them. After killing so many of our brothers, even if we have to search tirelessly, we must find them!"
After he finished speaking, a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
The faces of Evil Eyes and the others also showed a trace of ferocity.
Hearing his words, Xiao Zheng shook his head and said, "Do not underestimate them. After all, they are strong individuals within the Creation Realm and have some skills. What I am most worried about now is whether they will go to the Ancient World to bring back reinforcements."
Bring reinforcements?
Long Qie’s expression changed dramatically, and he couldn’t help but ask, "Mr. Xiao, shouldn’t such a thing be impossible? Isn’t it said that the barrier of the Ancient World can prevent the Ancient Clan from coming to Earth? It’s already quite difficult for them to come over, so even if they send more people, it should still be very challenging, right?"
"Difficult doesn’t mean impossible, so we still need to guard against this possibility," Xiao Zheng said. "I have decided that starting tomorrow, we will immediately launch an assault on the Holy Spirit Church!"
"We must make the Holy Spirit Church and the Ancient Clan disappear together in the shortest time possible!"
After saying this, Xiao Zheng’s expression became incomparably cold!
