Princess Li looked at Zhao Hai and said solemnly, “The divine race is difficult to deal with. This time they changed the heaven and earth laws, not out of kindness to elevate the ninth-level experts of the Ark Continent to divine-level, but to bring the army of the divine race here to flatten the Ark Continent. From the performance of that divine expert, their previous failure has made them furious. This time, their approach to the Ark Continent will be with overwhelming force. Fortunately, our gains this time are decent, but Brother Hai, are those ordinary troops really useful? Leaving them here is just sending them to their deaths!”
Zhao Hai sighed and said, “No matter what, we have to keep them. They are a part of the Ark Continent. If they don’t contribute anything in this upcoming war, they will feel guilty. At that time, their feelings towards us won't just be gratitude; they might become more wary of us. They will fear we might use kindness to coerce them. Besides, have you considered that the families of the divine race making such a big move against the Ark Continent means that others in the God Realm wouldn’t take action against them? They also have enemies, and those enemies are the gods of the three alien races. If those alien races join the fight, it would be beneficial for us. If the people of the three alien races are still around, they will certainly help them, which means we’ll have an additional ally.”
Upon hearing Zhao Hai’s words, Princess Li was slightly taken aback and said, “I understand. Brother Hai, do you really think the gods of the three alien races still exist? So many years have passed; even if they do, they must have long since died, right? Even gods can’t live for tens of thousands of years without dying, can they?”
Zhao Hai nodded and said, “I know, but this doesn’t have a significant impact on us. If those alien gods can help us because of their feelings towards the alien races, that would be the best. Even if they don’t help us out of those feelings, we shouldn’t worry too much. What we rely on now is our strength. As long as we make those alien races see our power, they will definitely come to assist us, as long as they still hold a grudge against the divine race.”
Princess Li understood Zhao Hai's words. Essentially, Zhao Hai was saying, “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.” If the alien gods indeed had a grudge against the divine race, then upon witnessing Zhao Hai’s power, they would surely come to help him, uniting with Zhao Hai to eradicate the divine race, which would also be beneficial for the alien gods.
However, Princess Li was somewhat worried and said, “Brother Hai, do you think those alien gods really have a grudge against the divine race? What if they don’t?”
Zhao Hai’s eyes flashed with cold light as he said, “If they don’t, it’s not a big deal. We will just work hard to improve ourselves. I want to see whether the power of the space or the divine race is stronger.”
At this time, Laura also walked over and said to Zhao Hai, “Brother Hai, the orders have been passed down. I believe they will make adjustments. Should we really not worry about the demon race?”
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, “We definitely need to be cautious, but the strength of the demon race isn’t very strong right now. I sensed it today, and it seems there are only about ten divine-level experts in their camp. That number isn’t too many. Furthermore, with the divine race causing such a commotion, the demon race is already alert and will definitely spend more effort to guard against the divine race. In their view, the divine race is far more dangerous than we are.”
Laura and the others nodded. This was the truth. Currently, neither the divine race nor the demon race knew that Zhao Hai had so many divine-level undead beings at his disposal. They still viewed him according to their previous standards, which would definitely lead to their downfall.
Princess Li asked, “Brother Hai, how many days until the divine race can come out?”
