As Kuang Liu drove the car, he pondered Wen Yu's words for a while before finally speaking up.
"Can the two of us together take it down?"
Wen Yu immediately shook his head.
"If it wants to run, no one can stop it!"
There was something Wen Yu hesitated to say. He had seen Kuang Liu's strength, and he followed the martial combat route. When facing a powerful opponent like the ancient demon entity, who followed a more mysterious path, he would definitely be crushed to the point of not being left with anything.
The size of Xing allowed it to withstand a dimensionality reduction strike from the ancient demon entity. If this were to happen to Kuang Liu, he would probably be flattened like a piece of paper!
Kuang Liu hadn’t witnessed the battle between Wen Yu and the ancient demon entity. Right now, he had just advanced to level five and, with the level five skills prepared for him by the military, he was bursting with confidence. He decisively stated,
"Withdrawing troops is difficult; the military won't agree. How about this: let's discuss tactics once we return to the forward base."
Wen Yu slightly nodded, but sighed inwardly.
He had said everything that needed to be said, but if Kuang Liu didn’t listen, there was nothing he could do!
Moreover, based on Wen Yu's observations and deductions, apart from himself, no one in the forward base could stop the ancient demon entity. Not to mention, the enemy was hidden while they were in the open. The threat posed by this ancient demon entity far exceeded that of the lizardman legion!
......
The military vehicle, equipped with five sequences and a demonic energy shield device, slowly drove back to the forward base. Six top ten sequence experts had gone, but only five returned...
In the vehicle, Wen Yu had already adjusted his combat state to its peak with a massive amount of healing and stamina recovery potions.
Seeing Kuang Liu hurrying towards the central castle with the remaining few, Wen Yu shook his head and decisively walked in the opposite direction.
Kuang Liu and the others were going to hold a meeting, while Wen Yu had already fully informed Kuang Liu about the situation with the ancient demon entity, so he naturally wouldn’t attend these useless meetings!
Moreover, Wen Yu estimated that the outcome was already fixed—the military was unlikely to withdraw from the forward base.
To this, Wen Yu could only sigh and shake his head.
They simply didn’t understand that the skill combination system of the ancient demon entity not only allowed it to dominate on the front lines but also greatly enhanced its assassination capabilities!
Once the ancient demon entity unleashed its full firepower, the entire defensive system of the forward base would be torn apart like paper!
Returning to his quarters, Wen Yu released his one-eyed guardian. At the same time, he lay on the bed and first checked on Xing in the soul realm space.
After several hours of travel, Xing's injuries had mostly healed and was now soundly asleep in the third soul realm.
He briefly organized his thoughts about the recent battle with the ancient demon entity.
The Dark World skill had immense potential, with various forms of transformation and powerful inclusivity, making its power limitless.
Unfortunately, the speed of stamina consumption was a big issue.
During the fight with the ancient demon entity, if it hadn't underestimated Wen Yu severely at the beginning, the outcome might have turned into Wen Yu struggling to defend himself.
"It’s possible to add more offensive means in the Dark World, or incorporate some sealing-type dark skills... The Dark Demon Lord can also be further strengthened, and a method for stamina recovery can be found through dark skills. After the forward base is over, it seems I need to communicate with the military and find more professionals with dark abilities to observe their skills closely. Also, for the fifth soul realm, I must find a divine beast species, preferably one with special attributes!"
