Chapter 921: Chapter 660: Interception
During his last meal, he had already noticed that Zheng Yichen had little appetite, but he did not stop. Now was not the time to consider such minor emotions; they had to enhance their chances of success as much as possible.
"Let’s go." Zheng Yichen waved his hand to extinguish the flames and sent Tanshia Firlo to the internal space. He then touched the motorcycle, which was already marked with many scars, and declared, "Depart!"
Du Gang did not get on the bike but also entered the internal space. Zheng Yichen took out the fishing rod, covered by black material. Lilith hesitated as she looked at Zheng Yichen, "Boss, your body can’t really support the previous method anymore."
"How can it not support it? There’s no Heavenly Punishment anymore, and my current physical state is sufficient!"
Zheng Yichen grinned, the weapon planted into the ground, and continued, "I don’t think that aurora is easy to break through, so... let’s hit it hard!"
As the motorcycle roared back to life, at the moment Zheng Yichen used the Earth Devouring technique, he felt that he had disturbed something. The entire Earth sent a silent roar towards Zheng Yichen, conveying the Earth’s anger.
"What is this? Earth consciousness?" Surprised inside, Zheng Yichen did not stop; instead, he intensified the Earth Devouring technique. After mingling it with Oblivion, the angry consciousness immediately subsided.
"Tch!" Zheng Yichen scoffed, twisted the motorcycle’s throttle, and, with the engine roaring, sped away from the spot, leaving behind a long trail of Overgrown Wilderness.
Simultaneously, at a base that also received feedback—this place was in a great domain surrounding Dusk and a key area of focus for the Boundary Breaking Organization. However, their headquarters was not located here.
"Being too close to Dusk to cast a shadow under the lampworm..." It wouldn’t be that bad. Being too close to Dusk might rather cause problems afterward.
There was no reason for Dusk to act against the Great World’s Boundary Breaking Organization, but Dusk mercenaries and Proxy Agents would.
What would happen if some abnormal Proxy Agent or Dusk mercenary suddenly launched a fierce attack on the headquarters? What would that be?
Just like this time with Zheng Yichen, if that slash had been directed at the Boundary Breaking Organization’s headquarters, they would likely be in the midst of rebuilding after a disaster by now.
"Has he already arrived here? Prepare for interception." Inside the base, a man looked at the information fed back by Earth consciousness and spoke.
After Eye of the Heavenly Law went offline, other places lost connection, but this site did not lose contact. It was sequestering Dusk, a crucial area, and it couldn’t completely disconnect from just a simple impact.
Hence, the information update here was very timely, but this timeliness was now limited to within the fifth ring.
Eye of the Heavenly Law was currently in a shutdown state, and restarting after shutdown required time. However, during the downtime of Eye of the Heavenly Law, it suffered an impact, which caused damage...
Normally, it wouldn’t be so easily damaged. The Eye of the Heavenly Law had a strength that lived up to its name.
Yet, that slash contained the unique ’finality’ strength, capable of injuring the Great World’s sky. It didn’t surprise anyone that it affected Eye of the Heavenly Law when it pierced through.
Under normal circumstances, Eye of the Heavenly Law would need half a month to restart, but this time’s damage required a good half a year for a restart. During this period, the Boundary Breaking Organization would have to invest a significant amount of resources to repair Eye of the Heavenly Law.
Accelerating the repairs would require a doubled investment.
The Boundary Breaking Organization’s control over the Great World had drastically diminished due to issues with the Eye of the Heavenly Law.
With the existence of the Eye of the Heavenly Law before, teleportation could be performed with precise accuracy, even across great domains. Now, although the Teleportation Array is still functional, the cost and consumption of teleportation have significantly increased, and teleportation is only possible between connected great domains.
The transfer of information has also become much slower. The Great World is not entirely monopolized by the Boundary Breaking Organization. With the loss of the Eye of the Heavenly Law, some dormant powers might become active. Half a year’s time—neither too long nor too short...
It’s enough time to spur many events, and to delay the progress of numerous projects in the Great World.
The Eye of the Heavenly Law is not only used to observe the Great World; it also plays a vital role in other aspects. Over at the development department, the Eye is equivalent to a supercomputer in the genre of immortals and heroes. Without the Eye, the progress of those projects would be severely affected.
The mission to intercept Zheng Yichen was perilous, but fortunately, some information was deciphered when the Eye of the Heavenly Law was damaged and shut down. Zheng Yichen, the one who had executed that slash, was in a terribly bad condition.
Reports had previously delayed information, but it matched the data from the Eye of the Heavenly Law. That Proxy Agent was slaughtering non-human creatures rampantly, plundering life sources to recover himself.
Yet the exhaustion brought on by Heavenly Punishment wasn’t so easily mitigated, and there was also the backlash from the Single Oblivion Slash among others. It would be tough for the opponent to launch the same attack again; he might be capable of it, but the cost would be... death.
Before death, he could take down a large number of people from the Boundary Breaking Organization along with him. However, the headquarters of the Boundary Breaking Organization wasn’t here, so there was no worry about Zheng Yichen striking where he shouldn’t...
The issue was that someone had to intercept him if they wanted him to execute that slash, and recently, two domain masters from beyond the tenth ring had arrived here bearing not-so-good news.
The Proxy Agent might have unleashed more than just a single slash. Carrying Oath Power, he could accumulate more when causing destruction in the Great World, meaning he couldn’t only replicate a portion of the previous Single Oblivion Slash but might also unleash attacks on par with or even surpassing it.
Weaklings weren’t worth using such attacks on, but strong enough entities were worth his while, though it would likely be a one-for-one trade. Who would want to die for that?
Under such an attack, even the soul protection of the Hall of Heroic Spirits would be of no use.
Initially, Ban Long’s idea was to fully implement a blockade, forcing the Proxy Agent to use that attack to break through, rendering him unlikely to reproduce it having reserved some of his strength. Without that dreadful attack, matters would be much easier to handle, but knowing now that the opponent could deliver it twice or even maintain a uniquely powerful state, Ban Long felt a headache coming on.
Hong Yuan had provided information on the Oath Beast, and after reviewing it, Ban Long became interested in Oath Power. However, that world’s merger had failed, and the Great World did not have enough samples left over to continue research.
Unless important research material could be obtained directly from the Proxy Agent.
The reason Hong Yuan came here was precisely for this, not because some wire in his brain was crossed, prompting him to offer extra combat strength for the blockaded area.
But since he had already come, he had to contribute somehow.
Right now, the Proxy Agent disturbed the Earth Consciousness of the blockaded area, using a method of erasing the earth. The blockaded area followed the original plan by intensifying the Sky Enclosure’s blockade; they had to dissipate the impact of Zheng Yichen’s earth-erasing strike first.
Should the expendables go first, or should they let the opponent proceed directly to Dusk?
It was a good thought, but according to the intelligence provided by Hong Yuan, one could only guess if the Proxy Agent would leave something behind before touching Dusk.
