"This day has finally come!"

Within the Spirit Network Space, dozens of illusory figures of high-ranking officials from the Chen Kingdom gathered together, watching the image of the Heavenly Emperor City appear on the projection screen, their faces all solemn.

Although the Heavenly Emperor City is protected by an array, and the rune satellites of the Chen Kingdom cannot see the interior of the Heavenly Emperor City, the Rune Core AI can simulate the approximate distribution of troops inside based on the energy aura emitted by the Heavenly Emperor City.

At this time, the Heavenly Emperor City was clearly filled with many powerful energy gases. More importantly, every now and then, squads of heavenly soldiers would march through the air, leaving the Heavenly Emperor City in a great hurry and heading towards the border of the Haotian Empire.

"It seems that Heavenly King Linlang has arrived!"

Given his leadership style, I estimate he will launch a full-scale attack on us in about a month.

Heavenly King Linlang is the Heavenly King of the Fourth Heaven in the Nine Heavens Realm, and according to intelligence gathered by the Dark Division, the Haotian Imperial Family is actually a descendant of the Eighth Long Xuan.

Although they are cooperating, they are not of one mind. It will definitely take a considerable amount of time for Heavenly King Linlang to take over the entire defenses of the Haotian Empire in a short period of time.

However, given the powerful strength and formidable military force of the Heavenly King Linlang, it's highly likely that the attack will not be delayed for long, and launching an attack a month from now is the most probable scenario.

"I agree, so we will begin full-scale preparations today."

Actually, even if I can't defeat the other heavenly army legions, I'm confident I can hold them off by relying on the city's defenses.

But if it were Heavenly King Linlang and his direct legion, the ' Thunder Battle Division,' appearing on the battlefield, I truly would be helpless."

Wei Shan looked at Chen Mu and spoke frankly.

Three months ago, Chen Mu developed Rune Core No. 5, and the Rune Research Institute immediately poured all its resources into creating three God Level mechs. One of the pilots of these God Level mechs was Wei Shan.

With Wei Shan's talent for mecha, he can already unleash Half-God Level combat power. Coupled with his personal leadership of the Mountain Army, they do indeed have the confidence to resist ordinary heavenly army legions.

But he also knew very well that if the opponent was the Thunder Battle Division, the Mountain Army would have absolutely no chance.

The strongest army in Heavenly Court is also known as the Heavenly Court Eight Division Army. They are named after the eight trigrams of the Eight Trigrams of the Earlier Heaven: Qian 1, Dui 2, Li 3, Zhen 4, Xun 5, Kan 6, Gen 7, and Kun 8.

The Thunder Battle Division of Heavenly King Linlang is the fourth division representing the character 'Thunder'. Their headquarters are in the fourth heaven. They are skilled at manipulating the power of thunder and are the most adept at strong attacks among the Eight Division Army. Generally, the Thunder Legion is only deployed when fighting against forces in medium-level or higher planes.

Wei Shan's worries at this moment were undoubtedly the biggest concerns of everyone on the field.

At this moment, everyone looked at Chen Mu with hope, hoping that Chen Mu could tell everyone that he had come up with a way to deal with Heavenly King Linlang and Thunder Battle Division.

However, Chen Mu shook his head at this moment.

I know that everyone is pinning their hopes on me.

I really wish I could do that, but unfortunately, I'm not omnipotent.

At least for now, if the Heavenly King Linlang comes to kill us, I can only run away with everyone else.

At most, I might give him some minor trouble, but defeating him is simply impossible.

Those who attended this meeting are undoubtedly loyal; Chen Mu didn't want to give anyone false hope, so he spoke the truth.

However, there's no need to worry too much.

According to the intelligence we have gathered, many powerful individuals are now lurking in the Pan Emperor Continent because the Heart of Pan Emperor is about to be born.

For example, the Devil Master of the Western Abyss Devil Race and the Living Buddha of the Northern Esoteric Sect, their strength should be enough to rival the Heavenly King Linlang.

Before they figure out our true strength, Heavenly King Linlang probably won't make a move. But if we stall long enough, we might have a chance to turn the tables.

Although the reason why the Heavenly King Linlang descended upon the Pan Emperor Continent was indeed to deal with the Chen Kingdom, he came to the Pan Emperor Continent for more than just that purpose.

One of his tasks was to prevent other races from spying on Heart of Pan Emperor, so he couldn't possibly reveal all his trump cards to deal with the Chen Kingdom from the very beginning.

"That's right! So what if he's True God- level expert?"

We can run! It's not like we don't have legs.

As long as we can hold the city gates, I don't believe he'll do nothing all day long but come chasing us down.

Even if he did do that, our Chen Kingdom now has a population of trillions. His killing rate might not even keep up with our population growth rate. What do we have to be afraid of?"

Chen Duo stood up, cursing and swearing, looking very indignant.

"Alright, please sit down."

Chen Mu waved his hand, telling Chen Duo not to get so excited.

Although Chen Duo's example is rather crude, the point she made is valid.

Why is it that in all the myriad realms today, most of the gods who are doing well will either form their own factions or join forces with other powers?

No matter how powerful an individual is, it is impossible for one person to accomplish everything. Even a True God Realm expert can destroy a city with a single move, but not all the people inside the city will die. Some people will always survive and escape in different directions.

It's impossible for a True God Realm expert to hunt down everyone, and after the True God Realm expert leaves, those who escaped can rebuild a city in no time.

The resilience of life is far greater than imagined, which is why Chen Mu established the Chen Kingdom. He believed that true strength can only be born from a collective.

I also believe that we will definitely win.

After all, our Chen Kingdom is different from their Haotian Empire. We are like the sun at seven or eight in the morning, rising and progressing every minute and every second.

The Heavenly Court, on the other hand, was completely corrupt and its social hierarchy was rigid.

Time is on our side. Our current strategy is to outlast them. If this war drags on, we will surely be victorious.

This time, it wasn't the soldiers of the Chen Kingdom spoke, but Guo Xiaohan knew absolutely nothing about war.

Although Guo Xiaohan didn't understand war, she was good at business and had a deep understanding of public sentiment. Her opinions gave many people confidence.

In fact, almost all of the high-ranking officials of the Chen Kingdom present had risen from humble beginnings. They had defeated too many enemies they once thought were invincible, and they all had incredibly firm hearts. None of them had ever been afraid; they just wanted to have a sense of security.

Alright! That concludes today's meeting.

After everyone goes out, make full preparations for the battle.

As for Heavenly King Linlang and the Thunder Battle Division, I will keep an eye on them; you don't need to worry about them for now.

They had known about the arrival of the Heavenly King Linlang for over two years.

Everyone present had made extensive preparations for this day. There were no specific matters to discuss at today's meeting; it was merely a pre-battle motion.

Soon, the high-ranking executives present left one after another, but Chen Duo remained.

Instead, after the crowd thinned out, she took the initiative to ask Chen Mu.

"Brother! Did A Huo tell you when he's coming back?"
