Chapter 678: Chapter 334 Resistance of the Solar System! (Two in One)_2 Therefore, it is often said that Divine Domains occupied by others are easier to seize; this is precisely the reason. Currently, the Solar System was aggressively raiding the loosely managed Divine Domains of the Yongming Star System. Once they obtained a challenge, they would immediately lead their teams in a retreat, transmitting the challenge back to the Earth Academy Alliance Headquarters. At the Earth Academy Alliance Headquarters, a large number of strategists had already gathered, waiting to collectively solve the various challenges transmitted from the Divine Domains. As long as a solution was found, the Solar System’s special operative squad would immediately return to that Divine Domain to investigate. If the Yongming Star System’s forces in that Divine Domain had not yet returned to set up defenses, they stood a high chance of quickly overcoming the challenge and seizing control of the enemy’s Divine Domain. Of course, even with a solution, the process of overcoming some challenges within the Divine Domains was quite tedious. They still had to be selective. For these tedious Divine Domains, even if one had the reference solution, it would take a very long time to implement. By then, the enemy would have long since returned to defend, and one would risk being trapped and annihilated—a truly regrettable outcome. In fact, for every Divine Domain they controlled, everyone hoped to select such difficult challenges, as this made it hardest for enemy star systems to target and breach them. Unfortunately, all challenges within a Divine Domain were chosen by its controller from a few options randomly generated within the Divine Domain itself, rather than being devised by the controllers. It wasn’t easy to encounter such grueling challenges. The Yongming Star System had to organize strong attacks while simultaneously dealing with the Solar System’s Rapid Attack Squads, a situation they found extremely frustrating. They immediately decided to dispatch several Killing Squads to intercept and eliminate this Rapid Attack Squad from the Solar System. Since the Solar System had dispatched this squad, they had naturally considered the possibility of interception; thus, all its members possessed exceptionally high mobility. They all had the ability to ignore spatial obstacles and flee directly. They were not afraid of having the space around them locked down. However, for every clever plan, there’s a counter, and for every measure, a countermeasure; there’s always something that can subdue another. The fact that the Yongming Star System could dispatch Killing Squads naturally meant they had considered this situation. They were using something similar to Chen Mo’s Life-And-Death Emblems. It could directly lock onto an opponent, creating a link that confined both parties within a certain range. Once linked by this locking chain ability, breaking free was not easy. At this moment, the Solar System’s Rapid Attack Squad had just employed hit-and-run tactics again. After transmitting the challenge from this Divine Domain back to the Academy Alliance Headquarters, they were preparing to head to the next Divine Domain when they sensed a fluctuation in the surrounding space—clearly, a Killing Squad had arrived. But this time, they weren’t caught; the entire team immediately activated their abilities and fled. When the Yongming Star System experts leading their team arrived and witnessed this, their leader immediately reported the matter. "We’ve confirmed that this group possesses the ability to escape by ignoring spatial obstacles. However, the exact Cooldown period is unknown and requires verification." As this news was reported, the other Killing Squads also made their preparations, determined to capture the Solar System’s Rapid Attack Squad the next time it appeared. After all, every ability had a Cooldown, and the more powerful the ability, the longer its Cooldown. An ability like ignoring spatial obstacles likely couldn’t be used consecutively without a delay. However, the Solar System had dispatched a total of two Rapid Attack Squads. When one Rapid Attack Squad’s ability to ignore spatial obstacles entered its Cooldown, personnel would immediately be sent to help reset it. Meanwhile, the other Rapid Attack Squad would strike simultaneously. It was imperative to pressure the Yongming Star System. Otherwise, if the enemy could concentrate their forces too easily, the Solar System’s Divine Domains would likely be swiftly captured. Even so, the Solar System had already lost two Divine Domains. Fortunately, if killed within their own Divine Domain, their remains could be directly transported back to their star system’s Base of the Tower. Once transported back there, resurrection was much less difficult. Even if someone was afflicted with the Unable-To-Resurrect State, knowing Chen Mo possessed such an ability, the Solar System only needed to preserve a small fragment of the corpse. At this moment, the Solar System’s combat losses were quite severe. If Chen Mo were present, he could have quickly helped recover many of the casualties. However, to complete the Super Five mission quickly and reliably, Chen Mo had brought Zhui Yi with him this time, leaving no one outside to lend aid. Looking at the ever-growing pile of fifth-transition professionals’ corpses at the Base of the Tower, Earth’s top leadership was horrified. Apart from a few major offensive campaigns against the Yongming Star System in the past, it had been a long time since they had suffered such massive casualties. What particularly surprised the Solar System’s high command was that the Yongming Star System had managed to persuade major star systems to dispatch their top experts into the exclusive battle zone between their two star systems. This was, after all, a completely suicidal act for those experts. Even if the leaders of their own star systems agreed, their top experts would not be so easily convinced. Yet, not only was the plan successfully implemented, but those experts also displayed such unity and harmony that it seemed impossible for the Solar System to persuade even one or two of them to defect. Seeing that the number of citizenship applications from the Yongming Star System remained at zero, the Solar System leaders stationed in the Tower of Eternity wore extremely grim expressions. Although the Solar System’s Rapid Attack Squads had quickly gathered a large amount of information on the challenges within the Divine Domains controlled by the Yongming Star System, the Solar System had not yet successfully captured any of them. Instead, their own Divine Domains were being continually breached, and their casualties were mounting. However, the Yongming Star System wasn’t having an easy time either. When they launched strong attacks into others’ Divine Domains, their losses were obviously even greater. But the Yongming Star System possessed far deeper reserves than the Solar System. They could withstand it, even if their sacrifices were many times greater. Furthermore, this time, other star systems had sent forces to assist them. The Solar System was finding it incredibly difficult to hold out in this conflict. However, a star system with three Life Planets inherently exerts natural pressure on a star system with only one. And this couldn’t be blamed on the Heavenly Dao being unfair. The formation of every celestial system is a result of natural evolution. The Solar System, having evolved to its current state, had only given birth to Earth, a single Life Planet—a result of this celestial system’s natural evolution. The Yongming Star System, in its evolution, now possessed three Life Planets, also a result of its celestial system’s natural evolution. Both systems had evolved naturally to their current state in the most primitive and fair Universe, so there was no basis to speak of unfairness. It was like humans evolving flexible hands while some alien species evolved agile wings; one couldn’t claim unfairness simply because they could fly and humans could not. The Heavenly Dao had never shown any special favor to either side in this regard. Even though the Solar System appeared naturally disadvantaged against the Yongming Star System, the Heavenly Dao had not granted it even the slightest additional convenience. This also highlighted the immense difficulties the Solar System had overcome in its struggle for survival against the Yongming Star System to reach its current state. Having surmounted so many difficulties over such a long period, Earth’s top leadership refused to resign themselves to fate in the face of the current situation. Even as sacrifices mounted, the defenders’ spirit of resistance remained exceptionally strong. They fought with fiery intensity against the Yongming Star System. As for the Rapid Attack Squads, even though several members had been neutralized by the enemy’s locking chain ability, resulting in casualties, their plans continued to unfold methodically. They knew that if they pressed on, the next one to be ensnared could very well be themselves! Once locked down, it was different from battles defending a Divine Domain; they would undoubtedly be killed, their bodies obliterated without a trace, with absolutely no chance of resurrection. Even someone with Chen Mo’s capabilities couldn’t resurrect a person who had been reduced to ashes. Yet, despite this, they continued to carry out their missions with reckless abandon, all to cause the Yongming Star System even the slightest bit more trouble!
