Chapter 410: Chapter 323: He’s Not Fighting Alone._2
To hold the position of Minister of Trade on the Fourfold Planet, one naturally need not dwell on the social status and power at one’s disposal.
But now, such a figure lacked his usual composure and calm, instead trembling inconspicuously, his forehead slick with cold sweat, and his pale, dry-lipped countenance betrayed extreme weakness.

“Chief Li, let’s evacuate some people and retreat,”
“As long as players from each planet escape, at least we won’t face extermination. There’s still a chance. Any later and all opportunities will be lost.”
Yes.
An escaping player, no matter where they fled, could not avoid the grim fate of being wiped out as a race.
...
However, if enough players escaped—not many, just about 10% from each planet—that would be sufficient. Even if the entire Awesome Starfield were destroyed, at least everyone would still be alive.
The players who died would remain in hell.
Rather than being exterminated, without even the chance to stay in hell.
It must be said, it was a good strategy. If the 67 Starfield had thought of this, perhaps their Starfield would not have been wiped out entirely.
“…”
Li Yi said nothing, just looking towards the rapidly assembling Void Portals not far away with a somewhat ugly expression on his face. He understood these matters better than Minister Ke.
He even knew more.
For instance, the Void Portal could not be destroyed. This portal was not a product of the level-up game, but an innate ability of the Void Clan, part of a completely different energy system, not on the same plane.
This portal was accessible only to players of the Void Clan.
Other players were not permitted to enter.
And any Prop or Skill used against this Void Portal would have no effect; it would not suffer the slightest damage because the portal was not a physical entity. It could be roughly understood as a kind of ethereal existence.
But for the Void Clan, it was a solid existence.
Any players from other Races who entered this Void Portal would simply pass through it and not be transported to the Void Clan.
In the level-up game.
Any race with innate abilities was an incredibly strong prospect, as if by birth all players of the same race had an additional Skill compared to players from other planets—an extremely synergistic and high-level Skill for their race.
The Void Clan was among the best of these.
The only way to destroy a Void Portal was to kill the Void Queen.
But…
At this thought, Li Yi looked towards the groveling Void Worm Emperor at his feet, his expression growing ever darker.
The Void Queen, an existence within the Void Clan that had no offensive capabilities apart from reproduction, possessed tremendous defensive power, naturally equipped with a Skill called Absolute Defense.
Absolute Defense that could last for one minute.
To be precise, it was not Absolute Defense in the sense of the level-up game, but rather the ability to link her life with the land beneath her, so any damage inflicted on her would be transferred to the land.
Only by bombarding the entire surface of the Awesome Starfield could one kill the Void Queen within that one minute.
That was even more of a fantasy.
This skill that the Void Queen came equipped with could only be used three times in her life. After using it the third time, she would retire to the backlines to take on the role of nurturing, no longer serving as the Void Queen.
This was the strict hierarchy within the Void Clan.
And those dozens of Void Portals needed less than a minute to be constructed, without even needing a full minute. Once a minute had passed, even if the Void Queen were killed and her respective Portal destroyed, it would be meaningless.
Because more Void Queens would come out, and more Void Portals would appear.
By then, it would be too late for regrets.
“Sigh!”
At this moment, more and more players with anxious expressions were rushing to present their advice. Li Yi just took a deep breath, his face slightly pale as he closed his eyes, looked up to the sky, his lips tightly shut and trembling slightly without saying a word.
Retreat?
Retreat was impossible!
Yes, by retreating, they could indeed avoid the disaster of being wiped out as a race!
But they would never have the opportunity to return to the Awesome Starfield.
Most players would have to stay in the hell of their own planet until their deaths, while the few that remained would drift among other Starfields for the rest of their lives, unable to return home. The Awesome Starfield, which had been a glorious central hub of trade for several surrounding Starfields…
would wither overnight.
If they retreated, all the efforts Li Yi had put in over the years would go up in smoke.
Over the years, he had consolidated all the planets on the Awesome Starfield, sparing no expense to build an external trade chain, tying everyone’s interests to his ship, uniting people’s hearts with a common purpose.
Just as things were gradually improving, how could he just watch his empire of commerce—the blueprint for which had yet to materialize—be destroyed?
Impossible!
With a determined resolve, Li Yi opened his eyes wide; the usual laziness and nonchalance had vanished from his face, supplanted by a ferocious expression and bloodthirsty gleam in his eyes as he growled, “This is our home. Flee? Where would we flee to?”
“Do you want us to live in exile on other Starfields for the rest of our lives?”
“We wouldn’t even dare to die.”
“The moment any of us who fled died, it would trigger the extermination mechanism, and our brethren clinging to life in hell would die with us.”
