Chapter 753: Chapter 560: Is It That Strong?_3

"Are all the Proxy Agents from your side... such good people?"

"Uh, I think the Proxy Agent is now more concerned with recovering his condition," said the Dusk mercenary uncertainly. He just felt relieved that he hadn’t run away and had persisted to the end.

He estimated that this time, upon returning, the merit points he would gain would not be the minimum guaranteed.

"Recovering, forget it, either way, we have to thank you this time..." The Oath Keeper shook his head somewhat melancholically. The Oath Beast had been dealt with, partly thanks to their sincere cooperation, but more so due to a powerhouse from Dusk who turned the tides.

Otherwise, just the sheer size of the God Simulation Engine would have been enough to drive them to despair.

Looking at the shredded remnants of the God Simulation Engine, that place would become a unique marvel in this world for a very long time to come. There would even be many competitions centered around it, since it was high-end weaponry from the invaders’ world, with immense research value.

A moon gradually rose, the sky laced with clouds, making the emerging moon look feeble. After an initial burst of joyful discussion following victory, the atmosphere among the Oath Keepers returned to silence, completely unlike the cluster of Dusk mercenaries on the other side.

The Dusk mercenaries did not belong to this world, and this time they had also witnessed high-end combat between Proxy Agents and God Descenders, collecting a wealth of intelligence about the Great World.

They gained a sufficient understanding of the powers and abilities possessed by the God Descenders they had encountered, and incidentally learned about the secret weaponry developed by the Great World—the God Simulation Engine. It was a good thing such a massive device was difficult to transport to the invaded worlds.

For the remaining Dusk mercenaries, surviving was profit enough. As for touching the God Simulation Engine... that was out of the question for now. The Dusk mercenaries were divided into two factions. The God Simulation Engine was considered the ’spoils of war’ for the Proxy Agent; if they touched it, it would be tantamount to disregarding the Proxy Agent who was close to finishing his slaughter.

Thus, a portion of the Dusk mercenaries spontaneously blocked off the site, while others had a simple idea: they might not meet again in the future, so taking the opportunity to pocket something didn’t seem too bad.

However, the opinions among the Dusk mercenaries were not united. Those who wanted to act couldn’t dare to make too big a scene while the Proxy Agent was still nearby. That Proxy Agent could kill a God Descender, and killing them would be just like butchering chickens.

The silent atmosphere among the Oath Keepers was due to them receiving combat reports through some network devices.

Their world had suffered greatly, with countless casualties. Some landmasses had been seriously damaged by the blasts of destructive weapons, completely altering the terrain. The environment there would be very unstable for a long time to come.

In less than a day, their world had undergone earth-shattering changes. Although it was not an apocalyptic crisis, they now had to undertake reconstruction after the disaster. Just the losses alone would take decades to recover to the state they were in just one day previous.

Moreover, the list of high-level officials from their homeland who had ’collaborated’ with the Great World for preservation was now made public.

It seemed somewhat meaningless to make it public at this time, but for the people of this world, they needed a ’trial’ to eliminate their inner fears and confusion about the future, to vent their accumulated anger.

However, this trial did not go smoothly, though it did help with the venting of anger.

Why?

More than half of the people on the preservation list were in those destroyed cities. They wanted to survive through that list, but did not expect that the Great World had no intention of sparing them.

They simply ignored the agreement and bombed them.

Though the individuals on the preservation list were destined to be forever nailed to the pillar of shame and referred to derogatorily as ’foolishly clever people’, more directly as ’a bunch of self-important fools’.

They thought that the agreement would secure them against all worries, but in reality, those who held significant influence and power in their home world were not even considered human by the other side.

While these people did not suffer the ’trial’ they deserved, this obscure and humiliating death— not even being regarded as human by the enemy—was quite satisfying to many.

Especially after such self-important people died.

As satisfying as it was, reconstruction after the disaster still needed to proceed. Meanwhile, casually mentioning those traitors and cursing them became a part of daily routine, a way to alleviate stress.

"Those people died a fitting death, but our world has suffered too much damage," sighed an Oath Keeper. "We can’t even be sure if the invaders will come back. They seem to attach great importance to our world, don’t they?"

After speaking, the Oath Keeper involuntarily glanced towards the fallen God Simulation Engine, the most eye-catching thing there.

As time passed, the native forces also learned about the events here and arranged for any available troops to come to this location. However, due to the advance warning by the Oath Keepers, those soldiers did not commit any outrageous acts.

Those who couldn’t control themselves had to be controlled; they didn’t consider that the people who came from Dusk, who could repel those invaders capable of destroying their world, also had the power to take care of those who would repay kindness with enmity.

"It might also be due to the importance placed on that Proxy Agent? The invaders that appeared later were clearly targeting that Proxy Agent," another Oath Keeper suggested with slight hesitancy.
