Hold on tight, hold on tight, do your best, do your best, do your best, do your best. These were the words that almost everyone in the Burning Legion insisted on in their hearts. There was not much time left for them, and the things that they needed to prepare were endless. As for Earth, without the appearance of the dimensional channel and the rampage of the dimensional beasts, life seemed to be returning to normal day by day, especially in New Luxembourg, where there would be new changes every few days.
In this era of the world, the various civilian technologies were still relatively backward. For Renard, this was a direction that he could use. He had been working hard to improve civilian living standards to win people's hearts. Although it had not been long, the changes were clearly visible. Some special directions even gave people a feeling of immediate effect. In a short period of time, too many incredible things had been created.
In the universe, the Burning Legion was anxiously preparing for the final battle with the dimensional beasts. On Earth, Renard was also anxiously solving the problem of the territory. As the arrival of the dimensional beasts was getting closer and closer, and he did not know whether it would be tomorrow or next month, Renard's mind was in turmoil.
Xiao Ran was in charge of the layout of the defense line in the Burning Legion, confirming the completion of the missions of each team. How many new drones could be deployed in the defense line every day, how many Dark Mines had been scattered in the predetermined positions, how the dimensional beasts would appear, and how the first wave of attacks should be arranged. These were not only the problems of the General Staff Department, but also problems that Xiao Ran, the army's boss, had to consider.
A group of people sat in meetings every day to confirm the situation every day. They were also constantly preparing for the arrival of the dimensional beasts. Every day, they were in a state of first combat readiness.
"This won't do. This minefield is too densely set up. We have no way of determining how the dimensional beasts will enter this world in the end. We can't just consider the dimensional passageway. We can consider a large-scale transfer. I think we should spread out the Dark Lightning to maximize efficiency."
"It's better to break one finger than to injure all five. Even if the dimensional beasts move in a large area, once they enter this minefield, they can directly eliminate a group of dimensional beasts. This can also reduce a lot of pressure."
"But how can you guarantee that so many Meta Beasts will appear in this minefield? What if the dimensional beasts don't appear in this minefield on a large scale? You have to know that these dark minefields can be easily detonated. Furthermore, if it's a dimensional fusion, who knows if this dark minefield will be affected by space. "
On one side, two people were arguing, while on the other side, another two people were arguing about other issues. They were arguing about whether they should expand the encirclement, which was to distance themselves from the dimensional guidance area. As there were too many dimensional beasts, once they moved on a large scale, it was very likely that the army's battleships and troops would be dragged in as well, and they would be directly surrounded by the dimensional beasts. However, once the distance was increased, it meant that the encirclement would become more sparse. In that case, it was better not to surround them and directly fight them head-on.
Of course, these were only two different topics being debated among the many staff officers. In fact, there were many other topics being discussed and analyzed.
Xiao Ran didn't care about the debate of these staff officers. Instead, he looked at the virtual map of the universe in front of him and thought silently, calculating and analyzing the situation of the layout.
Ryukino walked in from outside the conference room and walked to Xiao Ran's side when no one was paying attention. He bent over and whispered into Xiao Ran's ear, "Renard wants to video call you immediately."
"I got it. Tell him to wait for a while." Xiao Ran nodded. He leaned forward slightly and knocked on the table with his hand to silence everyone. At this moment, Ryukino turned around and left.
"What everyone says makes sense because we know that the dimensional beasts will appear in the near future, but we don't know if it's now, tomorrow, or even further away. This kind of situation where we don't have a way to understand the information will indeed make people feel a little depressed. Everyone's thoughts are reasonable, but I remember that this is already the fifth time you want to change the original plan."
"I know what everyone is thinking. You just want to be safer and have more assurance. I hope that there won't be too many losses. However, if you think about it so much every day, the more you think, the more worried you will become. The previous plans will also be more inappropriate, but changes are always happening. There will never be a perfect plan."
"I feel that the initial plan is the most suitable. The drones, Dark Mines, and a small number of troops will form an encirclement. The First Fleet will be in the middle, the Second and Third Fleets will be on the sides, and the Fifth Fleet and Homestead Fortress will be at the back. We will carry out multiple fierce attacks to eliminate as much of the dimensional beasts as possible and weaken them. Then, we will use high-level combat power to deal with the enemy's high-level combat power. I will be the main combat power to reduce the number of dimensional beasts as much as possible and lead the formation of the defensive circle to prevent the dimensional beasts from leaving the designated universe. This way, our firepower can be maximized. Whether it's the MACROSS cannons, reaction rounds, or Devourer warheads, we can release them without any burden without worrying about affecting our own people."
"The battle plan will be based on this. Speed up the arrangement and layout. You guys will perfect the details in three hours. If there are any changes after that, use this plan as the framework to arrange and add to the arrangement."
After that, Xiao Ran stood up and left the conference room. Since their boss had spoken, the staff officers in the conference room all shut up. After Xiao Ran left, the conference room became lively again.
After leaving the conference room and passing through a short corridor, Xiao Ran was about to enter the bridge to communicate with Renard, but then he raised his eyebrows and walked back to his room on Burning Legion. After sitting on the chair in front of the desk, Xiao Ran tapped a few times on the table and a virtual screen popped up. He then contacted Renard through the bridge.
"What's the matter?"
On the screen, Renard's eyebrows were slightly furrowed. There was a sense of sadness between his eyebrows that couldn't be dispelled. After hearing Xiao Ran's voice, he said, "We can't go on like this. There's still no way to confirm when the plan for the territory will be completed. So, just in case, I need you to do something else."
Xiao Ran put his hand on his chin and said, "Go ahead."
Renard took a deep breath and then gently spat out two words, "Tessa."
Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment, but then he realized what Renard wanted to say. He couldn't help but have a strange expression on his face, "That's not very good, is it?"
"There's nothing bad about it." Renard said faintly, "She already knows about your situation. Besides, she's not a secret. Everyone already knows."
Xiao Ran sat up straight and raised his hand to stop him, "Wait, I think you've misunderstood something."
Renard's face was expressionless, "I don't think there's any misunderstanding."
Xiao Ran opened his mouth. He had a feeling that he didn't know how to explain it. He twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Don't you think it's more dangerous to follow us?"
Renard's face was still expressionless, "It's more dangerous to leave her alone in this world. Compared to the danger of being with us, the consequences of the latter are easier to accept."
"Phew." Xiao Ran shook his head. He suddenly didn't know what Renard was thinking. After a moment of silence, Xiao Ran said, "There's still time, and this world must not be abandoned. I believe you can do it. You have to give me some time to think about it."
"As soon as possible."
After Renard said these two words, he hung up. Xiao Ran leaned back in his seat and shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Xiao Ran had always followed the principle of letting nature take its course, especially when it came to relationships. He rarely did anything deliberately, and when he took the initiative, it was in the past and not now. But at the same time, he would not be pretentious. When it was time to be decisive, he would be very decisive.
But this was not what Xiao Ran was thinking about. So what if he made Tessa his follower? The problem was that Tessa's role as a follower was very small. Once she became a follower, she would be confined to his team. Looking at the size of the team, there was no place for Tessa. Of course, it was good to let Tessa integrate into the Burning Legion, but not into Xiao Ran's team. In other places, the best arrangement for Tessa would be for her to lead a team alone. Otherwise, there would be too many conflicts in terms of responsibilities. Most importantly, Tessa could not participate in combat. There was already Law, Renard, Rising Clouds, and even Niferina. In terms of skills alone, Tessa could not compare to any of the top four. It was a little funny that she could not even compare to a horse like Rising Clouds. Was she supposed to be the vice-captain? There was no need for a vice-captain in the team!
After staying in the room alone for a while, Xiao Ran contacted Kiliam, who was still far away on Earth.
"What's the situation now? Renard's side is getting a little anxious. You have to hurry up."
Kiliam was also stunned. He then said, "I originally planned to contact you in two days, but now I've confirmed the coordinates of the other world through Sophia. I've also confirmed the location of Sophia's body, but I can't say that I've completely accomplished my initial goal. I learned from Sophia that time in the other world has completely stopped compared to this world. Even if we've confirmed the coordinates of the other world, I don't know what will happen once we initiate the warp."
"After all, this world was reluctantly created because of Sophia. But what if Sophia wakes up and this world turns into nothingness? This possibility isn't high, but we still have to consider it. After all, this world has been reset before, so it's not impossible for it to cause some other abnormal reactions. And once we make the warp, it might only take a moment for the other world, but for us, wouldn't it be hundreds of years? The moment we succeed in the warp, we'll directly return to Prometheus?"
"In short, there are too many problems. We're still analyzing them, so we haven't reported to you yet."
"So troublesome?"
"It'll only be more troublesome than you think." Kiliam was also a little helpless. "And who to send over is also a problem. If we pilot the warp, we'll have to consider whether Sophia will be crushed to death by the warp. There are too many problems to be rushed. Technological research and scientific development can't be rushed."
Xiao Ran was silent. He didn't know how to respond to Kiliam's words.
Kiliam looked at Xiao Ran with a hesitant expression. He then asked hesitantly, "About this, do you know anything about quantum entanglement?"
Xiao Ran asked, "What are you trying to say?"
Kiliam said, "Based on our calculations, no, based on my analysis and calculations, the most suitable person to carry out this mission is actually you. Because you're the one closest to quantum among us, and the only one who can enter the quantum domain. Based on the theory of quantum entanglement, if you can maintain a quantum connection between the two worlds, then there's the greatest possibility of synchronizing the time between the two worlds. At the very least, because of your existence, time can be synchronized or reversed. In other words, you can be the only person in that world who can maintain the current flow of time in that world. In other words, time in that world will be at a standstill, and you will be the only one who can move in that world."
"But we still need a device to maintain and strengthen this connection."
"There's such a thing?" Xiao Ran frowned. He tapped his fingers on the table and said, "Organize the information and send it to me. I need to understand the specifics first."
"No problem," Kiliam said. Kiliam said, "Also, it's best to contact those related to Thunderhorse, especially those who understand Thunderhorse's technology. If we're really going to do this, we'll need the help of these people."
"Okay." Xiao Ran nodded and said, "I'll head over to your side as soon as possible. I need to talk to Sophia face to face again."
Kiliam: "As you should."
After cutting off the communication again, Xiao Ran suddenly had a feeling that things were getting more and more troublesome. Now, it was to the extent that he had to make a personal appearance. On one hand, Renard's request was only for Tessa, and on the other hand, Kiliam's proposal for Sophia. It seemed that he was the only one who could handle this matter.
Shaking his head, Xiao Ran stood up and left the room. He definitely couldn't sit still, and he felt that he couldn't wait to get Kiliam's information. He planned to immediately head over to Kiliam's side. He wouldn't arrange for a ship, but he would just sail the Raindragon God over and return as soon as possible. His power might be needed at any time.
