205: Chapter 204 Infiltration Plan

Having abandoned his offensive, Chu Zhangyang had been constantly ruminating on that battle which was cut short.

To be more precise, he wasn't ruminating on the battle itself, but rather on that low growl that had emanated from the central region of the Milky Way Galaxy.

If the first two times his tentative attacks on the Milky Way Galaxy were repelled by the Xingyang God had brought him panic,

then this time, that single, brief roar had brought nothing but terror to this deity.

Chu Zhangyang had once doubted if there was something wrong with his mind; he was the dignified Sun God, after all!

Moreover, he was the supreme Sun God who had merged with an entire universe, utilizing celestial bodies across ninety billion light-years as easily as his own body!

With just a fraction of his power, he had made it quite difficult for the Xingyang God and two deformed demigods to hold their ground.

Therefore, whether in this universe or the Multiverse composed of countless parallel worlds,

what other existence could possibly make him feel such dread?

Chu Zhangyang was completely baffled.

He could not understand why that chill had permeated his entire being.

He was a god, and as a deity, he was born with divine power that could sense anomalies.

He could sense that the thing which emitted that roar was terrifyingly strong. This was also the reason why he had withdrawn his hand in time.

Because, if that thing was helping the Xingyang Civilization, he would definitely fall into an extremely dangerous situation!

The habitually cautious Chu Zhangyang naturally wouldn't launch another reckless attack in the short term.

It was just that in this vast and boundless starry sky, only that small cluster of the Milky Way Galaxy still stood firm.

It was like a thorn in his side, making the Zhangyang God restless and uneasy.

Not to mention, the Xingyang Civilization stationed in the Milky Way Galaxy surely still possessed a large amount of "Primordial Power" that could open channels to the Multiverse!

With those things, the dream of dominating countless parallel worlds would quickly become a reality.

Chu Zhangyang pondered for a long time, yet he still couldn't make up his mind.

Because he didn't know the intent behind that low growl.

He didn't even know what that terrifying thing was, or if it was even in this universe. If it wasn't, he didn't know if it would come or when it would arrive.

But he knew that the people of the Xingyang Civilization definitely knew the background of that monster.

After agonizing over it for a long time,

Chu Zhangyang summoned dozens of devout believers and then spoke his plan.

"I want to send a small team of several people to the Milky Way Galaxy for an infiltration mission. To... to obtain some relevant intelligence!"

In fact, throughout the entire Holy City, news of the Zhangyang God returning in defeat once again had already spread like wildfire.

These survivors of the Blue Star humans had originally heard that their deity had completely finished the organification of the universe.

This battle was supposed to be the war that destroyed the entire universe, and the tiny, sand-like Milky Way Galaxy should have been completely defenseless before the entire universe.

But the later result was that after so much time had passed, the Milky Way Galaxy was still there, perfectly fine. It was no different than before.

Mortals couldn't hear that low growl, and the people on Blue Star hadn't heard the rumors of "Nirvana."

So they naturally assumed that the attack by the Sun God of their universe had once again been successfully defended by the Xingyang God from another universe.

The majority of people had already begun to waver internally.

The Zhangyang God's "Great Baptism" of Blue Star had already allowed the believers to see his true face as an evil deity.

Now, even his divine power was being questioned by most people in the Holy City.

So as soon as everyone heard about the "infiltration" plan, they immediately began to harbor their own secret schemes.

They thought silently to themselves.

Could it be that the Zhangyang God really can't beat the Xingyang God? Now he's actually resorting to using the power of mortals to find information and a breakthrough?

These Blue Star survivors were already making their own calculations.

They planned to eagerly sign up for the "infiltration team" to get a chance to go to the Milky Way Galaxy.

Then they would take the opportunity to defect to the opposing camp and enter the embrace of the Xingyang Civilization.

After all, they had nothing left to lose. Their friends and family had long ago been transformed by the Zhangyang God into zombie-like God Walkers.

If not for the sake of survival, who would want to stay in this precarious Zhangyang Civilization?

They also knew that no matter how devout or obedient they appeared,

in the end, they would inevitably become nothing more than grime on the Zhangyang God's universal body.

It would be better to flee to the Xingyang Civilization; there might still be a glimmer of Hope for survival.

After all, the consecutive defeats of the evil Zhangyang God had already given these people enough Hope.

Thus, these people were mentally prepared; as soon as registration for the infiltration personnel opened, they would immediately sign up without looking back.

But their Hopes were soon dashed.

It turned out that the personnel for this trip weren't chosen from those who signed up in the Holy City.

Instead, they were personally selected by the evil deity's right-hand man, Tu Kulei.

He would naturally select those who usually showed the most loyalty.

Those who had ever revealed even a hint of dissatisfaction toward the deity would naturally not be among them.

Not long after, a team of over a dozen people, with Tu Kulei as the captain,

boarded a spaceship and sped off toward the Milky Way Galaxy.

Watching the receding silhouettes of the "infiltration team,"

the crowd knew that their perhaps only chance to escape the Zhangyang Civilization had gone up in smoke.

So, they all began to curse in their hearts.

"Accursed Evil God Chu Zhangyang, you're nothing special after all, having to rely on mortals to help you get information. What a useless god!"

"Chu Zhangyang, you're dead for sure. We know your nemesis is here now, that Xingyang God will definitely destroy you..."

"I am a Blue Star human who fears death, and I only converted to the Zhangyang God because I had no choice. But now I have Hope in my heart. I only pray the Xingyang God attacks sooner; I'd rather perish together with this Evil God..."

Although everyone was cursing in their hearts,

Chu Zhangyang, as a deity, had long since seen the dissatisfaction and anger in their eyes.

However, he didn't care about these lingering ants, nor did he care about their true inner thoughts.

Regardless, none of them were going to survive anyway.

At the moment, the only thing he cared about was that low growl from the center of the Milky Way Galaxy.

That eerie and terrifying cry that made even a deity shudder.

Chu Zhangyang was certain that the strength of that terrifying existence would far exceed his imagination.

And he felt that since he had heard it, Chu Xingyang, along with those two demigods, must have heard it as well.

But why weren't they afraid?

Could it be that the terrifying existence was their trump card? Their capable helper?

But how could such a powerful existence allow itself to be ordered around by a deity weaker than itself?

Chu Zhangyang couldn't figure it out for the life of him.

He could only be certain that for now, Chu Xingyang was not his match.

And Chu Xingyang certainly knew this in his heart as well.

Therefore, if they still fought him so resolutely,

it meant they had a trump card. They must have something that gave them total confidence.

That was why they were determined to fight him to the end.

Thus, Chu Zhangyang made up his mind that before he figured out the background of the Xingyang Civilization, he would absolutely not take action personally again.

For the sake of his dream of ruling the Multiverse, he had to be extremely cautious.

He absolutely could not allow himself to be trapped in his own universe due to carelessness.

Everything would have to wait until the infiltration team sent back news and inside information from the Milky Way Galaxy.

At this time, the Milky Way Galaxy was once again immersed in a boundless sea of joy.

Countless people walked out of their homes, celebrating wildly in their own ways.

In every street and alley, various discussions among these living beings echoed.

"The Xingyang God is truly too great. A true deity, the only true god in all universes!"

"Yes, not only did he easily repel the Large Magellanic Cloud Galaxy and the Andromeda Galaxy, he even repelled the terrifying Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall."

"That's right, that's a cosmic structure ten billion light-years long, yet it couldn't do anything against our tiny Milky Way Galaxy."

"Mm, when the divine light enveloped the Milky Way Galaxy, I knew we would be protected by the deity once again."

The crowd laughed happily.

In fact, many of these people, when they saw the Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall attacking,

had been utterly despondent, thinking that the Milky Way Galaxy would reach its end this time.

Some had even sat around the window holding hands with their families, watching the night sky as bright as day, saying their final goodbyes.

But now, seeing the entire Milky Way Galaxy intact and themselves safe and sound,

they naturally changed their tune.

Furthermore, in the campaign that repelled the Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall, the Xingyang God had converted an immense amount of resources to flood the Milky Way Galaxy.

Every rooftop, front and back yard, street, and patch of grass,

was covered in several thick layers of food and clothing.

Added to that were the various supplies from the civilizations of the Main Universe.

If refugees were ranked, the countless beings in the Milky Way Galaxy at this time were clearly in the highest tier.

They had no worries about food or clothing, and in addition to food, their houses were stuffed with all kinds of endless drinks.

This prosperous scene didn't look like the end of the world was coming at all.

It looked more like the Heaven or Eden from everyone's dreams.

They praised God from the bottom of their hearts and were grateful to the Great Deity Xingyang.

While constantly praising the great deity, a greater sense of reliance seemed to rise in their hearts.

Having witnessed the deity's divine power,

the people's desire for survival was ignited once again.

They sat together in groups of three to five, drinking wine and discussing with light in their eyes.

"You guys, do we really only have two years left to live? Isn't that too fast? I haven't had enough of this wonderful life yet."

"You're too greedy. That's what the people from the Xingyang Civilization said, and Missionary Officer Tu Kulei also said it in front of many people."

"There's only two years left. One of our distant relatives was lucky enough to win a ticket for the Kindling Project in the lottery and can go to the universe where the Xingyang Civilization is to continue living. As for us, let's just enjoy the present in peace."

"That's hard to say. Look at the Zhangyang God, that bastard; he definitely has no way to deal with the Xingyang God. Several consecutive attacks were repelled by the Great Deity Xingyang, so I think our Milky Way Galaxy can survive. Maybe the Xingyang God will even launch a counterattack soon and take down the evil Zhangyang Civilization in one fell swoop!"

A middle-aged man nearby immediately shook his head upon hearing this.

He retorted, "You're just daydreaming. Or maybe you've never seriously listened to what the people of the Xingyang Civilization say."

"They never said the end of our universe was brought about by the Zhangyang Civilization."

"Instead, in two years, an even more terrifying existence will swallow the entire universe!"

"I reckon 'the entire universe' probably includes the current ninety-billion-light-year territory of the Zhangyang Civilization."

Hearing the middle-aged man's discouraging words,

the crowd fell silent.

After a long while, one person raised their head and continued, "But, the Great Deity Xingyang even repelled the ten-billion-light-year Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall."

"So, how strong could that existence two years from now be? Could it really be so strong that even the Xingyang God can't beat it?"

"Anyway, I don't believe it!"

Hope was rekindled in everyone's eyes, but this Hope wasn't very substantial.

When the effects of the alcohol faded,

the aimless crowd could only stare at the sky with a sense of loss.

One of them said slowly, "Perhaps all of this is truly the fate of our universe."

"Perhaps deities are also ranked. The Xingyang God is stronger than the Zhangyang God, and that terrifying existence two years from now is an Evil God even more powerful than the Xingyang God!"

"It will swallow even Chu Zhangyang!"

"But no matter what, we shouldn't have any complaints."

"After all, if not for the Great Deity Xingyang, by now we would have already become a part of Chu Zhangyang's Flesh and Blood Universe."

"Dying, turning into dust, becoming meaningless flesh and blood."

Everyone let out a long sigh of relief.

The alcohol made their bodies feel warm, and they soon fell into a deep sleep under the starlit sky.

Enjoying this peace that wouldn't last much longer.

At this time, on the divine might, they naturally saw all kinds of praise and hymns for the deity.

The saying that the Xingyang God's divine power far exceeded the Zhangyang God's naturally reached here as well.

Suo Xiaoli from the Xueyang Civilization playfully ran to the Bishop's side and whispered in his ear, "Is it true? You are stronger than Chu Zhangyang!"

Chu Xingyang shook his head and replied honestly, "Unfortunately, no, at least not right now. Now that he has activated his universal body, he's already a tiny bit more powerful than me."

"If he weren't wary of the Nirvana that is currently squeezing its way in, I might not have necessarily been able to hold out under his intense assault."

"Fortunately, that guy is extremely careful and cautious; he won't be coming back for a while."

Wei Wei, Xiliu, and the others beside him remained silent with serious expressions upon hearing this.

They had all previously felt that the Great Deity Xingyang was the strongest among the Sun Gods.

At least in the various parallel universes they had visited before, the great deity had never suffered a loss before those Sun Gods.

But seeing the situation now, the crowd still found it hard to accept for a moment.

Solia, on the other hand, pulled Suo Xiaoli back; she didn't want to see any girl get too close to her teacher.

Not even another version of herself.

Moreover, she never cared about Chu Zhangyang or anything like that; after all, her teacher was here.

No matter how terrifying the evil that came, her teacher would protect her and protect everyone.

Just then, Tuku led Lin Han over.

Lin Han bowed slightly and asked sincerely, "It seems currently that the Zhangyang Civilization will not invade again. What should be the next step for our Resistance Army?"

"Should we install new weapons to deal with the later crises, or the monster that will arrive in two years to swallow the universe?"

Chu Xingyang pondered for a moment and then said slowly, "Shift your work focus from the external to the internal; from now on, the internal security of the Milky Way Galaxy will depend on you."
