“That's not a rational approach, but it seems you've already finished discussing it.”
The Aurora Saintess said, shaking her head with some regret.
If everyone joined forces to destroy this barrier and directly engage the World Serpent in battle, there would be absolutely no problem.
But these people have become hesitant and timid.
It was like the coalition battles in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
But they were just a rabble.
Their mouths were full of ideas, but their minds were filled with business.
For them, the crusade against the World Serpent was just an excuse.
Their informants hidden in the Paradise World had already reported the situation.
The World Serpent's ambitions were great, and what they wanted was exactly what the World Serpent wanted.
In short, it was all for profit.
Everyone wanted to steal the ultimate goal while taking advantage of the chaos, and no one wanted to expose their strength or expend their forces.
If they really broke the barrier and a large number of enemies jumped out, it would be difficult to fight.
Not to mention, the World Serpent was definitely still searching for the “treasure.”
If they took action now and disturbed their operations, it would be troublesome if the treasure couldn't be found.
Even if they drove away the World Serpent and reclaimed the Paradise World, it wouldn't be easy for them to find the treasure.
Therefore, everyone's thinking wasn't complicated.
That was to wait for the World Serpent to obtain the treasure, and wait for the World Serpent to come out on their own initiative.
Then, in a chaotic battle, they could take advantage of the chaos to snatch the treasure, which would be the most profitable approach.
What's more, the informants hidden in Paradise hadn't sent any news until now.
Although the signal was being interfered with, they could still communicate.
They were still waiting.
Taking action might not be profitable, but it would definitely be a loss, while not taking action would allow them to sit on the sidelines and continue to watch.
As long as the timing was right, they could snatch the so-called “treasure.”
“It's useless, Saintess, continuing to attack is meaningless.”
“Why don't we wait a bit? Anyway, the World Serpent's people are already trapped.”
“When they come out, we can launch a general attack. Why not wait for them to exhaust themselves?”
The director of the Management Bureau gave the Saintess a cheeky smile.
He knew the arrangements of Director Xiang Long, and he was very clear that Jiang Wang was inside the Paradise World.
Perhaps, at this moment, Jiang Wang was having a very hard time.
“But you need to think clearly, your people are inside too, right?”
The Aurora Saintess said, hoping this would spur them into action.
“The barrier is too thick, our Management Bureau couldn't get in.”
This was the excuse the Management Bureau had prepared long ago. Even if their people were inside, they would insist that they weren't.
“What about you? Your people should have been stationed there for a long time, right?”
The Aurora Saintess's gaze swept over the managers of the various forces.
They all shrugged their shoulders, and every word they said was nonsense about how it wasn't appropriate to go to war now and that they should wait and see.
To them, the people who died inside were never coming back.
Now that communications were down, they kept trying to contact them, but there was no response. They were probably in grave danger.
But they were very clear that now was not the best time to attack.
If they really attacked, they would have to face the World Serpent head-on, and they would completely lose the opportunity to pursue the “treasure.”
“You people are really too troublesome. Fine, then our Holy Temple will go it alone.”
The Aurora Saintess showed a dissatisfied expression, but she was actually very helpless about this situation.
Without benefits, these people wouldn't attack. This was the cold reality.
Only simpletons like the Holy Temple would foolishly do these troublesome things.
It was thankless and they had to face the ridicule of these people behind their backs.
Chapter 717: Soul Transformation
The people outside wanted to come in, but most of them were unwilling to take action. In their minds, striking first was equivalent to suffering a loss.
Only the simpletons in the Holy Temple would do such thankless things.
But inside the Paradise World, there were not many living people left.
A large group of weaklings had escaped early on, and those who were slightly stronger had all died in the recent battles.
The World Serpent's plan was coming to an end, and Jiang Wang's layout was also complete.
Next, it was time for a real fight. In the end, they had to fight each other desperately.
And Jiang Wang had one more important thing to deal with.
Since there was going to be a battle, and a super chaotic battle at that, then he had to find some more combat power.
The forces within Paradise had already fought the enemy and were all finished. They had fallen after fighting the World Serpent.
But some people had survived, and those were the martial artists in the arena.
Jiang Wang had already agreed with “Scarface,” the strongest of the martial artists, that they must have a good fight today.
As long as Jiang Wang proved his strength, he could become the de facto "strongest" in the arena.
After achieving the name of the strongest, these people whose minds were full of fighting would obey Jiang Wang's command.
“Although it's okay not to fight, they would definitely be happy to fight the World Serpent's people.”
“But these simple-minded guys definitely wouldn't pay attention to tactics and strategies.”
“In this way, the efficiency of the battle would be somewhat low, and that won't do.”
The so-called marching and formation were the responsibilities of a military advisor, and every strategy that was used had a core theory.
To expend the least amount of force and obtain the greatest results was the pursuit of so-called combat efficiency.
A good military advisor could use the advantages of time and place to multiply combat efficiency.
Even psychological warfare could be used to take a city without expending a single soldier.
Jiang Wang certainly didn't have such monstrous wisdom, but he could still do things like slightly directing the martial artists to make their battles more efficient.
But before that, he had to obtain the “right to command.”
These martial artists only listened to the words of the strongest, and he had to subdue them with strength.
Whoever had the bigger fist, they would obey. This was the path that Jiang Wang had already figured out. He was very clear that there should be a big battle.
Before, in the Mushroom World, after the twins had a fight with Jiang Wang, they became very easy to talk to, and they kept calling him brother.
But the fact was that, in terms of age, the twins were definitely older than Jiang Wang.
The martial artists who believed in the God of War communicated through battle and spoke with strength.
As long as Jiang Wang defeated “Scarface,” the strongest in the arena, he could take command of these people in one fell swoop.
After meditating and resting for a while, Jiang Wang had already adjusted his state.
Anyway, he hadn't experienced any fierce battles. Although he had fought with experts, he didn't need to worry about consumption.
He didn't even have a trace of injury on his body.
Before long, he arrived at the battlefield where he had been active yesterday. The arena was filled with noise.
Jiang Wang never expected that the World Serpent would cause such a big thing, but these people were still happily fighting here on their own.
It was as if the previous series of explosive battles had no impact on them at all.
Jiang Wang came to the audience seat. At this moment, one of the twins was fiercely fighting a strong enemy on the battlefield.
Although there were two bodies, there was only one soul.
The twins had a rare one-soul-two-body constitution. When the two bodies fought together, their strength was amazing.
But if they only focused their attention on one body, they could activate super-serious mode.
At this moment, the young lady on the battlefield was burning with surging battle qi all over her body.
The battle qi spread to the surroundings, and the battle qi surrounding her was actually like flames.
It wasn't just a descriptive term like before, with only the shape of flames. This time, it truly had the "substance" of flames.
“She's already at the fourth level of Breaking Void. Remember this feeling. After switching to another body, fight a few more times and you'll be able to break through quickly.”
The one who spoke was the other body of the twins.
The person fighting and the person watching were in completely different realms.
And Jiang Wang only felt very strange, because this arena was actually a large dream.
The people inside were actually dreaming. They were all fighting in a dream.
In other words, one side of the twins' soul was sleeping, but the other side was awake and watching themselves dream.
Jiang Wang patted his head and showed a strange expression.
“Breaking through to the fourth level requires feeling the power of your heart and feeling the shape of your soul.”
“This is just a starting point, and after this step, breaking through to the fifth level is the most difficult.”
