Ch. 1013Everyone, Hold the Line—I'm Going to Get Help!

Chapter Summary

Author's Note

The author writes that their depression flared up after nightmares, leaving them unmotivated, so this is the only update for the day.

Key Plot Points

  • Daiyu Divine Venerable's briefing: She explains Heavenly Court's three-tier combat system to the Gaia Humans:
    • Tier 1: Heavenly soldiers/generals, divine generals, and Celestial Masters — the most numerous units (millions strong), used for most campaigns. Even this tier represents an overwhelming force by most civilizations' standards.
    • Tier 2: Elite units of the Five Ministries, led by multiple awakened emperor-class beings with 100k+ soldiers per army group. Five army groups were used to destroy True Martial Civilization.
    • Tier 3: Heavenly Court's full might (all Four Emperors, Great Emperors, nearly all forces). Mentioned only twice in history — once against Buddhism, and once in the previous era.
  • Revelation about the previous era: Heavenly Court secretly deployed Tier-3 forces during its slumber in response to Containment Civilization's "Abyss Fishing" plan, which nearly destroyed the Dream World's foundations. The war was fought in secret; Containment Civilization never even knew.
  • Heavenly Court's numbers: 200-300 Roots, ~3 million top-tier transcendents, ~100k Ascendant Bodies — more than all other ancient civilizations combined.
  • The threat to Gaia: Heavenly Court is deploying Tier-3 forces specifically against Gaia Humans, whom Daiyu suspects are the prophesied "Absolute True Civilization."
  • Battle commences: The 108 nexus points must be defended. Daiyu readies herself.

  • The Night Watchers: Display steadfast courage, loudly volunteering for martyrdom and vowing not to retreat from the nexus points despite the overwhelming threat.

Significant Themes

  • Overwhelming disparity: The chapter emphasizes the absurd power gap between Gaia Humans and Heavenly Court (millions of elites, hundreds of Roots vs. a fledgling civilization).
  • Sacrifice and perseverance: The Night Watchers' willingness to die defending the nexus points embodies the "hold the line" ethos.
  • Faith in the Superbrain: The humans cling to the belief that Chu Minghao and Liang Min's ascension will ensure victory — a faith Daiyu herself seems uncertain about.
  • Hidden cosmic history: The secret war in the previous era (Heavenly Court vs. an unknown enemy during Abyss Fishing) hints at deeper Dream World mysteries.
