I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature-Chapter 1982 - 1342: Main Quest and Side Quest

The Qingtian Continent Alliance Army had some strategists consider the idea of contacting the Tianhe people, but it ultimately came to nothing because it was impractical to execute.

They hadn’t developed any suitable ships; all they had were essentially scrap, so how could they contact the Tianhe people?

Therefore, their approach was to keep a strict defense. Xiyun’s advanced battleships provided enough intelligence; they knew the Hundred Tribes Alliance Army wouldn’t easily commit genocide, as it might invite planetary retaliation.

They just needed to stall for enough time.

This time, the Tianhe War didn’t last long, yet the Hundred Tribes Alliance Army was under great pressure and required many cannon fodder to fill the lines. If the delay was sufficient, they could wait for the Alliance Army to fail.

Then they would have the opportunity to contact the Tianhe people, something they never imagined would happen voluntarily.

To those who have never seen Tianhe people, they conjured images of their appearance—perhaps three-headed, six-armed, with green faces and fangs.

But the ones who came were a few young girls, at least in appearance.

Yet, no one dared to underestimate them here.

"Since you have the Hundred Tribes’ advanced battleships, there is no need for further explanation; this area is already a Level 8 exploration zone on the Hundred Tribes Exploration Star Map."

Qi Xiangyun straightforwardly explained to Xiyun why this location was under heavy surveillance.

Xiyun nodded, as his advanced battleships weren’t connected to the Hundred Tribes Alliance’s ’network,’ meaning some information wouldn’t be updated immediately, but intelligence could be obtained from other wrecked battleships.

The information Qi Xiangyun described was easy to confirm, and even without checking it, Xiyun had some guesses, like the Hundred Tribes’ reinforcement fleet requiring their cooperation, revealing plenty of information.

The Hundred Tribes likely had their eyes on the Thunderstorm Land of Qingtian Star.

The elder...’ Xiyun felt a pang of melancholy, but his face showed no trace: "What about you? Are you here for exploration too? Or seeking the Tianhe Pioneers?"

"All Tianhe people want to find him." Qi Xiangyun replied ambiguously: "But we’ve come here to disrupt the Hundred Tribes Alliance’s operations; this Level 8 exploration star is the only one close to Tianhe."

The current exploration level here is Level 8, but there’s potential for it to rise, and the New World’s strength shouldn’t be underestimated—the Tianhe people’s resilience is a remnant of the Old Era.

Tianhe essentially preserved all remnants from the Old Era, hence their apparent strength; however, in terms of power limits, the New World is higher.

Tianhe people have analyzed that even the top forces from the Old Era struggling at their peak might fail if they venture to a Level 10 exploration star.

Level 8 or potentially higher exploration stars are near Tianhe; if the Hundred Tribes Alliance found something here, they genuinely could turn the tide.

As the Tianhe people’s greatest issue now is the difficulty in enhancing strength, even though some have broken the Tianhe Shackles, visible strength improvements won’t occur in a short time.

When encountering enemies with overwhelming suppression, such forces could ’sweep’ within Tianhe, and even if the Tianhe people managed to deal with such entities, it would come at a tremendous cost.

Liu Hongzhao and her companions could leave Tianhe now, but this doesn’t mean they’ve broken the Tianhe Shackles; their strength still cannot improve, and their activity outside solely relies on consuming World Tree fruit stored for Old Era World Resources.

These World Resources are non-renewable; although the stock is vast, allowing their activity outside for a long time, the time they can operate externally is limited before completing strength conversion.

"You’re saying the Hundred Tribes Alliance might deploy more exploration forces here soon?" someone couldn’t help but ask, a heavier expression.

A reinforcement fleet already keeps them suppressed, and if more exploration fleets came here, could they even survive?

"Why worry when we’re here?" Tanshia Firlo glanced at the anxious questioner with a slight disdain: "The Hundred Tribes Alliance is hoping to break through by exploring unknown forces; how long can they hold out?"

Tanshia Firlo’s words eased some of those present; after all, the white-haired girl’s reasoning made sense. The Hundred Tribes Alliance doesn’t know what the Qingtian Star has; their force deployment is essentially gambling...

They’re gambling on whether they can find a chance to break the stalemate here; with the front line under pressure, pulling forces away to come here—isn’t that gambling?

If they invested more forces in exploration here, it means the front line would face greater pressure, and before they finish exploring, the front might already collapse.

Tianhe people might come here, perhaps with the intention to bleed the Hundred Tribes Alliance using Qingtian Star; even if the Alliance doesn’t continue exploring, as long as Tianhe people are strong enough, they might find opportunities to strike at or raid the Hundred Tribes Front’s rear.

"Is the reasoning clear now? Having us here makes seven or eight reinforcement fleets not a problem. At the Hundred Tribes Front, if they dare deploy seven or eight reinforcement fleets, they should be ready for heavy losses."

Tanshia Firlo’s words made Lin Yaoyao subtly roll her eyes to the side; White isn’t some naïve little dragon anymore.
