When the truth reached the Coalition government, Jiang Shan immediately held a video conference.
The final result of the discussion was that the truth of the matter would be reported to all Virtual Gods, but it was not allowed to be disclosed to the lower ranks.
There were too many people below virtual god-level, and if the news got out, it would only cause widespread panic, and it would be difficult to control.
Moreover, this war with the invaders was essentially a war between gods, and the outcome depended on high-level combat strength above virtual god-level. Whether the people below knew the truth or not was no longer important. To avoid civil strife, concealing the truth was the best way to deal with it.
After deciding on a solution, Dongfang Bai gathered a group of people in the Abyss Brink at noon that day.
When the many Virtual Gods present saw the serious expression on Dongfang Bai's face, they basically guessed that the announcement this time would not be good news, and many people became a little nervous.
"This time, I'm going to announce bad news. I hope that after everyone hears this, don't panic and stay calm.
"This time, the invaders we're facing are not low-rank True Gods as previously expected, but high-rank True Gods, or even ninth-rank True Gods …"
As soon as Dongfang Bai said this, almost everyone present was dumbfounded.
After all, low-rank and high-rank were completely different concepts.
There were no True Gods in the gravel world. If the opponent was a low-rank True God, perhaps they could rely on Mr. Fu and a few other hidden high-rank Virtual Gods as the core to form a battle formation and fight. In this case, there might be a chance of winning.
However, if the opponent was a high-rank True God, it meant that there was no chance of a comeback at all.
After all, no matter how strong a battle formation was, there was a limit to how much it could improve one's strength.
Judging from the current situation in the gravel world, even if Mr. Fu, who was at Virtual God rank-9, and a few high-rank Virtual Gods were the core and all the Virtual Gods in the gravel world to form a battle formation, the power of the final battle formation could only reach peak third-rank true god-level at most, and it was impossible to go any higher.
If they encountered a fourth-rank True God, they might not even be able to fight, let alone a high-rank True God above seventh-rank.
"It's over, there's no hope at all. Go home, wash up, and sleep. You can rest for a few days. "
"Then why are we here now? Is there any point to what we've been doing these days? "
"If the opponent was only a low-rank, we might still be able to turn things around if we work hard. However, a high-rank True God is no longer a gap that a battle formation can make up for! "
…
Seeing the unity that he had painstakingly built up over the past few days instantly dissipate, Dongfang Bai clenched his fists. This situation was already within his expectations.
"The enemy's strength has far exceeded our expectations. It can even be said that we have almost no chance of winning. But are you really willing to hand over our world, our homeland, to these invaders from the macro world? "
"Once our world becomes a vassal world, all of our resources will become the target of those invaders. Not only the minerals, but also the crystal cores in the bodies of various monsters and even the Godheads in our bodies will become their hunting targets. "
"That's not all. Some cultivators might even be sold as slaves. Female cultivators are more likely to become targets for them to vent their anger on. They wouldn't care about the life and death of a subsidiary world's lifeforms, let alone the dignity of these people. "
"It's even possible that after a few hundred years, they will exhaust all the resources in this world. In order to prevent revenge, they will slaughter all the living things in this world!"
"Are you really willing to see the future become like this?!"
"You might die if you resist. But if we don't resist, we and even our descendants will live a life worse than death! "
…
Dongfang Bai's words were so provocative that even Lin Huang was moved.
Many people present who had already planned to give up regained their fighting spirit.
They would die if they resisted, but they would die with more dignity.
Instead of letting themselves be hunted like wild dogs in the future, it was better to be a wolf and fight to the death now.
However, there were also a few people who were not encouraged by these remarks and still chose to withdraw and wait and see.
"The Emperor's Heart will send today's message to all virtual god-level Emperor's Heart Rings later, but it will be sent in an encrypted form. The message cannot be forwarded, and it will be automatically deleted within ten seconds after being read. I also hope that everyone will not reveal the news to their relatives and friends below virtual god-level to avoid causing unnecessary panic. "
"If anyone is found to deliberately spread the news to the lower levels and cause a riot, we will kill the person who spread the news immediately!"
Dongfang Bai actually had something else to say. For example, the Emperor's Heart would later monitor all virtual god-level Emperor's Heart Rings, and all keywords related to the macro world's invasion would be blocked. The corresponding information and records would also be automatically deleted, and so on.
Less than half an hour after Dongfang Bai finished speaking about the invaders, the Coalition government also issued a notice that the recipients were all virtual god-level powerhouses.
Outside the Abyss Brink, everyone was stunned when they saw this notice.
By the time many people came back to their senses, the message had been automatically deleted, and many people immediately took the initiative to contact the Coalition government to ask about the authenticity of the matter. After that, everyone who received the answer was somewhat devastated.
On the Abyss Brink's side, seven people beat a retreat and took the initiative to withdraw from this operation.
As for the others who stayed, most of them were not bewitched by Dongfang Bai's remarks, but rather everyone had analyzed the pros and cons of the matter.
If they stayed and resisted, they could still fight to their heart's content.
If they did not resist, they might be able to live a little longer. Once the invaders won, sooner or later, they would wipe out the remaining Virtual Gods in the gravel world and strangle any unstable factors. At that time, there were only two possibilities: either they would be hunted or they would become slaves.
Those who could achieve virtual god-level were basically powerhouses in terms of mentality. They had experienced countless battles, and it was rare for them to retreat without a fight. Therefore, even if they knew that their theoretical chances of winning were zero, most people still chose to bite the bullet. To them, retreating without a fight was the behavior of the weak.
Seeing that most people had stayed, Lin Huang was somewhat gratified. In fact, he was a little worried that this news would cause everyone to break down. After all, the opponents they faced were strong enemies with almost no chance of winning. Fortunately, everyone's mentality had basically stabilized. He even saw the determination to fight to the death on many people's faces.
"Everyone is very motivated. At least this is good news," Mr. Fu said with a smile.
"Yeah, I've been worried that everyone's mentality would collapse before the war even started." Lin Huang also smiled and nodded. "Now it seems that this group of people isn't afraid."
Just as the two of them were chatting away, several spatial fluctuations suddenly came.
Almost at the same time, spatial fluctuations came from three different directions. Lin Huang immediately probed with his Divine Telekinesis and found that there were eight spatial rifts emitting fluctuations …
