CHAPTER 954: CHAPTER 549: DIFFERENT WORLDS, SIMILAR FATES

...

"This is the faction management plan discussed after the leader’s meeting. The leader asked me to bring it to you for review and to hear your opinion."

In the tallest skyscraper in Coastal City, Qi Jinhui handed a document to Lu Heng.

Lu Heng stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the bustling crowd below, his expression remaining unchanged.

Since Coastal City is Lu Heng’s residence, many extremists demanding that Lu Heng be handed over came to Coastal City to protest.

Lu Heng did not take the document and said leisurely, "Sometimes I wonder, is it really worth risking our lives for these people?"

Qi Jinhui glanced at the protesters below the building and replied, "We are not risking our lives for them, but for our home, for our country, for our descendants, and for the ideals in our hearts."

Lu Heng turned back to look at him and smiled lightly.

In fact, Lu Heng was just venting his complaints. He no longer cared about these foolish groups.

Sometimes, the difference between people is greater than that between humans and dogs.

Lu Heng took the document, flipped through it for a while, and understood the content.

According to the document, the Human United Council intends to seize this opportunity to divide into factions.

Yes, just like the Sikes Civilization, they plan to divide into factions.

Dividing factions is a means of vertical segmentation.

Lu Heng didn’t actually like this ruling method, but sometimes he had to admit that it was the simplest and most effective method.

Like the Sikes Civilization, dividing into different factions makes supervision easier.

For example, the Descent Faction is the most extreme and reactionary group that requires close monitoring.

Lu Heng never thought he would stand in this position one day to view issues.

Humans are a huge group, and the larger the population, the more complete a ruling system is needed.

Without a ruling system, society would fall into anarchy, and that would be when true evil arises.

Lu Heng handed the document back, saying, "Let them decide for themselves. What I need to consider is how to deal with Salion."

Qi Jinhui continued with another piece of information: "This crisis might be more troublesome than initially expected. There are not only storms over the East Sea but also anomalous storm data in the Antarctic, Arctic, and Atlantic Ocean."

Half an hour ago, Lu Heng had already received this intelligence.

He also confirmed that the storms in the Antarctic, Arctic, and Atlantic Ocean, like the one over the East Sea, are altering Blue Star’s World Law.

In other words, there are four descent points on Blue Star.

This does not mean that four Demon Gods are descending.

Rather, Salion is creating four descent points.

During the Tidal Sea crisis, Salion created only one storm, so his descent location was certain.

At the moment of his descent, he was bombarded with a strategic level antimatter bomb.

Evidently, Salion learned from his previous mistake and increased the descent points to four.

Once the laws of the four descent points are fully transformed, he can choose any one to descend.

He could even withdraw temporarily after the descent begins and switch locations.

This directly nullifies the antimatter bomb ambush strategy.

Lu Heng took a deep breath and said, "Ask the Academy of Sciences to calculate the completion time for the four storm points."

Creating a storm descent point compared to four is undoubtedly a different level of difficulty.

This means Salion’s expected descent time will be delayed, not the initially predicted thirty days.

"The climatologists at the Academy of Sciences are already working on it. We should have results in a couple of days," Qi Jinhui nodded in response.

He hesitated for a moment before asking, "The leader asked me to ask if there’s confidence in handling this crisis?"

Lu Heng shook his head slowly, "Not at the moment."

Qi Jinhui showed no expression change upon hearing this reply.

He had analyzed all the intelligence and understood how powerful a Demon God was.

The person in front of him was indeed the strongest human but still only at the level of a demigod.

It’s normal to have no confidence in handling the situation.

Qi Jinhui added, "If that’s the case, the Four Major Battle Zones will jointly initiate a cultivation plan to preserve the seeds of civilization if the situation goes beyond control."

A plan to preserve the seeds of civilization is necessary.

Whether the Black Iron Dwarves or the Bansel Clan, when faced with an insurmountable crisis, they opted to migrate.

This is the last resort to preserve the species and civilization.

Humans also need to consider this issue.

Lu Heng looked up at the sky and said leisurely, "Once the plan is ready, send me a copy. If that day comes, I’ll try to provide cover."

Qi Jinhui nodded, "Alright."

After pausing, he then asked, "If we have to choose a world to migrate to, do you think the Elf World or the Black Iron Dwarf Kingdom would be more suitable?"

Lu Heng was silent for a while before answering, "The Bansel Clan is the most suitable."

Although humans have good relations with both the Elf Clan and the Black Iron Dwarves, migrating some population would inevitably lead to conflicts over living space.

Civilizations are easier to ally when there’s no conflict of interest.

Once there’s an overlap in living space, conflicts arise.

This is an unavoidable issue, and no matter how good the initial relations, they will ultimately turn hostile.

Relatively speaking, the Bansel Clan is more willing to accept humans.

So, migrating to the Bansel Clan’s world is actually the optimal choice.

...

The time came to the tenth day of the storm.

Lu Heng received a message from Azik, confirming that the Star Realm Ship initially promised to the Sword Holder Alliance was completed.

The construction speed was much faster than Lu Heng anticipated.

Lu Heng took a team of four to see the Star Realm Ship and started an online meeting for the Sword Holder Alliance.

Once the meeting began, Sword Holders from the Seven Great Civilizations appeared as holograms.

Azik first introduced the completed functions of the Star Realm Ship and then distributed the manuals.

Afterward, Lu Heng brought the topic back on track:

"Regarding the upcoming descent of Demon God Salion into the human world, you all should be aware. The meeting today is to discuss how to handle this crisis."

Master Gulu clenched his fist and said, "Didn’t we beat that foolish Demon God once? Let’s do it again and bomb him."

The Sword Holder Alliance indeed dealt a blow to Salion during the Tidal Sea crisis, giving everyone great confidence.

Su Muyu sighed and said, "It’s different this time. There are four Eyes of the Storm on Blue Star, and Salion’s descent location isn’t fixed, rendering the antimatter bomb ambush strategy ineffective."

Queen Orelana glanced around and said, "We currently have four demigods; working together should prevent a quick defeat."

The combat power of four demigods is an invincible force in any world.

However, there’s still an insurmountable gap between demigods and True Gods.

Xavier Matrix said, "According to my calculations, excluding special factors, it would take ten demigods to hope to challenge a Demon God, and that would just be a draw."

This calculation can’t guarantee accuracy, as the power of a Demon God can’t be precisely quantified—only a rough conclusion can be drawn.
