"Why did you insist on inviting Lu PingAn to Mercury 42? His personal strength is indeed decent, but only decent."
Back then, the Li Family Brothers, as Holy Sons, had once asked their superior boss.
Chief King Akul, a demigod. Only an existence at his level could freely alter rules and guide fate.
Had the Li Family Brothers invited Lu PingAn? No, they had merely carried out that man's orders.
"Things on Mercury 42 haven't been going smoothly. Compared with the other major churches, we're too slow. On one hand, our opponents are too strong. On the other hand..."
Some things needed no further explanation. Compared to the other True God Churches, the relatively young Forest Goddess Church did not appear weak in overall power.
But those in the know understood that they were far too fragmented. That might not have mattered much in the development of Small Worlds, but in a Plane War that required mutual support and shared interests, the disadvantage was all too obvious.
When everyone was fixated on their own "cities" and "resource sites," desperately mining and gathering materials, it was only natural for the front lines to be driven back again and again.
The fact that even a newcomer like Lu PingAn could easily become a "powerhouse big shot" further revealed just how desperately short they were on capable people.
"...We still don't understand."
The Li Zhen brothers still could not understand why Lu PingAn had been chosen. His individual strength might have been decent, but in the chaos of Mercury 42, even throwing several Rule-level beings into the mix would not create much of a ripple. One Lu PingAn...
"His current raw strength probably truly falls short of a genuine Rule-level being."
After considering it, the old man decided to reveal a little more.
