The news of the reversal of the battle quickly spread to the upper echelons of the Galactic Alliance Army. The various allied civilizations, who were originally troubled by the World Tree's invasion, were pleasantly surprised. They cooperated with the three Universal Civilizations' gathering operation, and the armies of the various Star Fields all flowed toward the Central Galaxy.
Han Xiao's contribution of maturing the Pivotal Snake in advance also spread out and was known by the various civilizations. Although Black Star had guided the direction of the war more than once, the impact this time was still shocking to the upper echelons. Everyone was prepared to fight for decades, but they suddenly realized that they no longer needed to suffer and had a chance to finish it in one fell swoop.
If the invasion of the World Tree was a disease, then before the health of the galactic society was greatly damaged, Black Star had developed a special medicine to cure the disease and saved countless lives. With decades of war less, countless refugees and soldiers were saved. It was not an exaggeration to say that he had done a great deed.
Although it was a little mushy, many upper echelons of the civilizations felt that it was not a problem to use the word 'hero' to describe Black Star's contribution to this war.
As an important part of the Galactic Alliance Army, the upper echelons of the Supercluster Alliance also received this information and could not help but be stunned.
"I didn't expect the situation to change so quickly …"
In the conference room, the upper echelons of the Supercluster gathered with complicated expressions.
More than half a year ago, Black Star had forced them to stop the migration plan. Although the Supercluster Alliance had lowered their heads, they were naturally resentful. Due to the agreement between the two sides, they could only stay for the time being, but they still did not give up on the migration plan. Originally, they wanted to use two to three years to observe the situation. If the situation turned bad, they could restart the migration plan at any time.
However, they did not expect that in less than a year, the 'great situation' would be reversed by Han Xiao. The full invasion of the World Tree was disintegrated, causing the three Universal Civilizations to lose their restraint. This way, even if they wanted to migrate, they would lose the prerequisite. The current explored universe did not have a chaotic environment for them to carry out this plan. If they insisted on doing so, the three Universal Civilizations would have enough energy to deal with them.
"Sigh, we can't leave now even if we want to. It's all because of Black Star that we didn't seize the opportunity." Someone was vexed.
The Star Arc Leader shook his head and said helplessly, "You're wrong. We've profited from a disaster this time. If Black Star hadn't stopped us from carrying out this plan, we would be in trouble now."
Everyone thought about it and felt their scalps go numb.
No one had foreseen that in just half a year, the World Tree would be overwhelmed by Black Star. If they had really initiated the migration, they would have been screwed. This bit of time was not enough to complete the entire migration plan, and they would not be able to go far. At the same time, they would have lost their way and would be treated as a traitor who leaked information and become the target of public criticism … In that case, this was a blessing in disguise. They had to thank Big Brother Black Star!
Everyone shuddered when they realized this.
At this moment, the Star Arc Leader was deep in thought. He pondered for a moment and said, "I think that Black Star has already expected the current changes. After all, he has always been in control of the Pivotal Snake. The current situation is controllable to him … When he came to us and forcefully asked us to give up on migrating, other than considering the overall situation, he might have also been reminding us vaguely and using his own method to help us avoid this trap."
Hearing this, the eyes of the upper echelons of the Supercluster flickered.
The Star Arc Leader glanced around, paused, and continued.
"Black Star naturally didn't do this because he had any relationship with us, but because of his interests. Just as he said, after the war ended, the conflict between the three Universal Civilizations and the Beyond Grade A Association still existed. He needed an ally with enough weight to help him complete his further expansion. That's why he helped us this time."
"… What a dangerous guy."
Many upper echelons of the Supercluster shook their heads and sighed at Black Star's foresight.
While they were still focused on the war, Black Star had already begun to plan for the post-war situation. What was revealed from this was Black Star's firm confidence in this war. He believed more than anyone that the galactic society would win the final victory … because the key to ending the war was in his hands.
…
On the other side, when the Galactic Alliance Army was gathering, the Beyond Grade A Association also learned about the change in the situation from Han Xiao and was shocked.
"Beautiful, Black Star, you've grabbed the lifeblood of the World Tree this time!"
In the meeting room of the association's main planet, this good news excited the Beyond Grade As.
They had been rushing to reinforce various places for more than half a year and could only passively deal with the invaders. They had no room to retaliate, and they were all holding back their anger.
Ever since the start of the war, only the World Tree had been able to invade. Now, they could finally counterattack. Most of the Beyond Grade As present were excited and eager to give it a try. They looked at Han Xiao with admiration and appreciation.
Han Xiao knocked on the table and said, "I've already provided the coordinates of the World Tree's main body to the three Universal Civilizations. They're gathering a large army and preparing to finish the battle in one go. Everyone has to contribute."
"Don't worry, even if you didn't say it, we would have gone all out. My cannon is already thirsty!"
Sun Hunter waved his hand, his small body exuding a great sense of pride.
Manison said calmly, "We can finally end this war once and for all. It's earlier than I expected."
Most of them were overjoyed. Although they had the Sanctums and were not afraid of casualties, it was better to end the pain quickly. No one wanted to die a few more times in a long war.
Han Xiao raised his hand and gestured for everyone to not be so excited. He slowly said, "Our chances of winning this war are more than ninety percent. Defeating the World Tree Civilization is only one aspect. After the war, we still have more things to deal with. In order to prevent the three Universal Civilizations from burning the bridge after crossing the river, I need everyone's strong support."
Hearing this, everyone restrained themselves and waited for him to continue.
"What do you plan to do?" Kasuyi asked on behalf of everyone.
"I plan to use the aftermath of the war to change the nature of the association and turn it into a civilization regime, forming a true third force. With our reputation in the war and our own strength, the three Universal Civilizations have no choice but to accept it. Now, I'll inform you guys first. When the time comes, I'll call out your names. You just have to support me fully, "Han Xiao explained briefly.
"Is it finally coming to this? Don't worry, we'll definitely cooperate."
Everyone was energized.
This was a crucial step in the transformation of the Beyond Grade As. Everyone had expected it, so there was no objection.
This time, Manison suddenly said, "We have to be careful of one problem. Under the premise that victory is in their hands, the three Universal Civilizations might have other thoughts. They might take a fancy to the power of the World Tree … We'll help the three Universal Civilizations defeat the foreign enemies, but we can't sit back and watch them control or subdue the World Tree and turn it into a weapon against us. This is absolutely not allowed!"
Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.
The World Tree had already proven its terror. Originally, the combination of the Beyond Grade A Association and the Supercluster Alliance could fight against the three Universal Civilizations. If the three Universal Civilizations controlled the World Tree, their strength would expand to a new level and threaten the survival of the Beyond Grade As again. This was not an outcome that anyone wanted to see.
Han Xiao's eyes moved, and he smiled. "So, everyone, be careful when you fight. Pay attention to the three Universal Civilizations. Don't let them hinder my actions."
…
The three Universal Civilizations had specially divided a gathering area in the Central Galaxy. As the armies of the various Star Fields arrived, the size of the fleets on standby had reached an astronomical number.
The Radiant Federation had almost taken out all the Multi-Dimensional Sky Opening Transportation Devices in their inventory and arranged them neatly.
Because the World Tree had shrunk its forces to protect the mother tree's main body, this battle could only be fought head-on. It was truly an all-out battle between both sides, and the scale of the battle was the largest since the start of the war.
All the warriors in the spaceships had solemn expressions, and the atmosphere was like a decisive battle.
On the player forums, the related posts were already flooding the screen.
The players naturally would not miss such a big scene. Basically, everyone gathered and accepted the same mission — to be the vanguard of the main army and find out the distribution of the World Tree Civilization's forces in the main dimension.
The players did not have any objections to this and were even willing to endure it. After all, no one was more suitable for this mission than them, and they had room to perform in such a big scene.
However, most of the players were not mentally prepared for the sudden change in the war situation and were all surprised.
"Isn't the version called Invasion of All Realms? I thought the World Tree's attack would last longer."
"Maybe we got the priority wrong. Invading the other side is the true meaning of the version name."
"Speaking of which, in such a large-scale war, I feel like our influence is very limited … F * ck, don't tell me we're going to watch cinematics again?"
"I don't think so. I don't think this battle will end in a short period of time. I'm afraid it will become a meat grinder battlefield. It should be very tragic."
"It's hard to say. It's not that the enemy isn't working hard, but we have Black Star."
The players discussed on the forums non-stop. Although there were many complaints, they were still looking forward to the three Universal Civilizations' counterattack.
On the other hand, the strategic command center was busy deducing the tactical arrangements for this battle and various possible scenarios.
Simon, Teny, and the other senior officers discussed intensely, and Han Xiao and the others were able to listen in.
"The first wave of Immortals will be the vanguard to bring back more positioning data. Then, we'll use the Multi-Dimensional Sky Opening Transportation Device to bombard them with firepower. With 200,000 Keys of Destruction in one batch, we'll release twenty batches first. Then, we'll repeat this a few times and try our best to damage the enemy's strength."
"After that, we'll release the main fleet in batches. Due to the limited efficiency of the teleportation device, we can only use the tactic of adding fuel. It will take some time to alleviate the disadvantage of our forces, so this period of time will be the period with the highest casualties."
"The enemy will definitely guard the World Tree's main body tightly. Our goal will always be to break through the enemy's defense zone, open a path to the World Tree's main body, and behead it. This requires the cooperation of high-level combatants."
At this point, the senior officers present all turned to look at Han Xiao.
Han Xiao knew what they meant and slowly said, "When the time comes, I will be the arrowhead and lead the Beyond Grade As to charge forward. You guys will be in charge of providing firepower support."
"When the time comes, all the direct Beyond Grade As will listen to your orders," Simon said solemnly.
Beyond Grade As had strong individual combat strength and flexibility, they were the best candidates to charge forward. According to the tactical deduction of the three Universal Civilizations, there was a high chance that this battle would be won with their high-level combatants. Therefore, the importance of Black Star and the other Beyond Grade As in this war was self-evident.
Han Xiao was already mentally prepared. What he had his eyes on was the forces of the three Universal Civilizations, which could help him break through to the World Tree's main body. Only then could he carry out the real plan.
Although the three Universal Civilizations did not have the intention to fight a blitzkrieg battle, with the speed of the World Tree's explosive growth, a large number of troops would be added every day. The three Universal Civilizations could not help but speed up their gathering.
After a few more days, the three Universal Civilizations saw that their forces were almost gathered, so they launched the battle without hesitation.
In the vast universe, many fleets carrying players steered into different Multi-Dimensional Sky Opening Transportation Devices. With flashes of light, they disappeared from where they were.
…
At the same time, in the secondary dimension, the World Tree's main body dimension.
The area of this space far exceeded that of an ordinary dimension. A gigantic tree that reached into the sky stood in the middle. Its branches and leaves were lush and verdant, and its surroundings were densely packed with spatial rifts. Countless roots extended out from the gigantic tree and pierced into them. This gigantic tree was the main body of the World Tree.
At this moment, layers of protective shields enveloped the World Tree's main body, and the surroundings were filled with the seemingly endless World Tree fleet. They had been waiting here for many days, forming layers of tight defense lines and installing countless weapons.
Buzz! Buzz!
Suddenly, light flashed in the distant horizon, and the vanguard formed by the players descended, appearing in the vision of the World Tree fleet.
"They're here …"
On a branch at the top of the World Tree's main body, the Ancestral Tree King opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the enemy with a stern expression.
