Armipotent

Chapter 1022

"I don't think that's the issue, no?" Wei Xi looked at the others. "The issue is that they might be on another level compared to us since they have experienced more than once or maybe twice of the Dimensional Tower. I don't think mobilizing our main force will do any help against the other three worlds."         

    

"I agree with him. On top of that, it seemed the other three worlds had united their world under one banner. Not only might they be stronger than us, but they also win in numbers." Cao Jingyi agreed with her husband's concern.     

"I don't think that's a concern for us." Tang Shaoyang shook his head. "Their worlds might have experienced the dimensional tower, but not the people. If they are strong, why would they choose to enter Sky Tower instead of a higher rank tower? My guess is they are sending their weaker force to train them, so we don't need to worry whether they are stronger or weaker than us."     

"That's just my assumption, but we will find it soon, no? However, we need the strength to establish ourselves in the starter city, no? If we appear to be weaker than them, do you think they would want to have a friendly relationship with us? No, they want to dominate us instead, and maybe they will try to take over our world instead."     

"As I said, we can't make a countermeasure against the force we don't know of," Tang Shaoyang scanned all the people in the room and continued. "I have two plans. Plan A is to show our full strength. If we are not strong enough to stand side by side with them, then we will proceed to Plan B. Plan B is to completely abandon the dimensional tower and focus our force on expanding our territory on Earth. I feel like we need to unite Earth just like what Mellanainia, Allurion, and Egunov did before attempting the dimensional tower once more."     

Zhang Mengyao furrowed her brow as she did not like plan B at all. She felt like plan B had deviated from Tang Shaoyang's original plan to establish the empire. He told her that the empire was to protect, not to conquer. Of course, it was a different matter if the other factions attacked them first, but she was not keen on the idea of conquering the other factions.     

"Do we really have to unite the Earth just because the other worlds do it?" Once more, Wei Xi voiced his concern. Not that he did not understand why Tang Shaoyang wanted to do so, but he felt like it was an unnecessary step.     

"I thought we didn't need to do so either, but the God of Undead incident and the fact that the other worlds can invade our world changed my mind. We don't know how they will invade Earth; we can't prevent the invasion from happening." Tang Shaoyang told everyone his concern.     

"It does not explain why you want to unite Earth. It's not that I am against your idea, but I just don't want a bloody war when we are barely surviving from the thing called a game. The other factions will not give up just because we are stronger than them. The worst scenario, our aggression would turn all of them against us." Cao Jingyi opposed the idea of uniting the earth.     

"We can't prevent them from invading Earth, but we can prevent the other factions from working together with the people from the other worlds who try to invade Earth. Do you think the World Union will refuse the idea of uniting the world even if that means they have to work together with the other worlders?" Tang Shaoyang expressed his worries.     

The World Union once tried to form a World Government, using oppression by uniting the big factions. They tried to force the weaker factions to submit, but it failed because The Tang Empire dominated the Earth Tournament. If the other worlders give such a proposal to the World Union, they most likely accept the proposal.     

"Of course, that's just plan B. If the three worlds in the starter city are not hostile toward us, then we don't need to worry about uniting the world. I don't want to do such an exhausting project as uniting the world, but if that's our only choice, then we have to do it."     

Cao Jingyi fell silent for a moment, thinking about what Tang Shaoyang had just told her. If the invasion did really happen, there was a high chance it would happen. If that happened, they had to fight the other worlders and also the other factions from Earth.     

"I agree with Your Majesty. I don't think leaving the other factions alone is a good idea for us. The war is inevitable, sooner or later. They might not dare to fight us right now, but once they believe that they are stronger than us, they will declare war to take what is ours." Marshal Alton supported Tang Shaoyang's general plan.     

"It's still too early to make the decision. Just like His Majesty said, we need to attend the meeting first before thinking of the far future. If they treat us as equal, then there's no need to worry about uniting the world." Virion joined the conversation. "We need to focus on the meeting. The fact that they have experienced more than one dimensional tower makes us overthink. For example, we need to choose who will follow His Majesty to the meeting, and I have an idea for that."     

"His Majesty said that beastmen and elves are part of Allurion, so Sir Moonsong and I can accompany his Majesty to the meeting, so we can gain a positive impression from Allurion."     

The Chief of the Moon Tribe, Moonsong, was the strongest beastmen, so he was the best candidate to accompany Tang Shaoyang to the meeting. Virion might not be the strongest elf, but he was also the best candidate since he was the King of the Elven Kingdom. He should know more about elves than anyone else in the room.     

Virion's opinion gained everyone's support. They agreed that they thought far further into the future instead of focusing on the meeting.      

"I suggest taking Lu An for possible assassination, Marshal Alton, and Zaneos in case a fight breaks out." Kang Jiayi, Commissioner General of TEIS, followed up with the remaining suggestion. He recommended the strongest individual.     

"Let's change Zaneos for Zhang Mengyao instead. We still don't know yet how the Divine Church will react to a demon, so it's better for Zaneos not to join the meeting for the time being." Tang Shaoyang made adjustments for the last person.
