Chapter 968 - 414: Arrival of the "God" (Part 4)
"Moreover, the intelligence department’s assessment of the enemy’s strength is clearly a major failure."
The Great Wizard Wendine, specialized in psychic magic, interjected, her Void Remains a constantly shifting mist of colors:
"The collective Consciousness Network of the Vital People is far more resilient than we imagined.
I have tried numerous large-scale psychic attacks, all completely blocked by their psychic barriers."
Cassandra’s expression remained unchanged, but her fingers clasping the command staff had slightly tightened.
She certainly understood the thoughts of her colleagues.
Wizards have always been shrewd, each precisely calculating their losses and gains.
When costs begin to outweigh expected returns, disagreements and doubts inevitably arise.
"I fully understand your concerns."
Her voice remained calm like the lake in the Abyss, but those familiar with her could hear the hidden danger in it:
"But please remember that the Vital Republic possesses strategic technology that we desperately need.
Their bio-fleet manufacturing process can enhance our combat capability by 300 percent;
The taming methods for the Starry Sky Giant Beasts can provide us with nearly infinite living combat power;
And that unique psychic cultivation system..."
"Those things are indeed valuable, I don’t deny that."
Carl rudely interrupted her words:
"But the premise is that we can obtain them at a sufficiently low cost, and the current war loss ratio makes us unable to bear the cost of continuing."
"Moreover..." A sardonic expression emerged on Melviss’s metallic face:
"I’m beginning to suspect whether the real purpose of this war is to conquer technology or to satisfy someone’s... personal ambition."
This statement was like a huge stone thrown into still water, stirring up great waves in the command room.
Everyone felt the atmosphere suddenly become tense.
Several Great Wizards’ Void Remains instinctively activated, ready to respond to a potential conflict.
Cassandra slowly turned around, her purple eyes sweeping over everyone present.
Under such a gaze, even the Great Wizards felt an instinctive unease.
As if they were prey being eyed by a predator.
"Melviss..." Her voice became unusually gentle, but each word was as piercing as an ice pick:
"I suggest you carefully consider what you just said. Questioning the decision of the expedition commander is regarded as an act of treason in any era."
"Treason?" Melviss let out a cold laugh, his metallic Void Remains reactivating:
"I’m merely stating objective facts. This war has exceeded everyone’s limits, continuing it will only lead to collective destruction."
The other Great Wizards exchanged looks, the atmosphere turning tense and hostile.
They all sensed the impending outbreak of internal conflict.
But just then, the alarm suddenly sounded, interrupting the dangerous standoff.
"Maximum alert! Detected an ultra-large biological signal!" the observer’s voice was filled with fear:
"The Vital people summoned... they summoned a Star Domain level terrifying entity!"
Everyone’s attention immediately shifted to the holographic projection platform.
There, an incredible scene was unfolding.
In that vast Star Domain, a giant "god" almost filled all the space appeared.
"The life force intensity of this entity is approaching the Wizard King Level..."
Carl’s voice was filled with awe: "The foundation of this civilization is somewhat exaggerated..."
Faced with this unprecedented threat, the divisions among the Great Wizards were temporarily set aside.
No matter how dissatisfied they were with Cassandra, they now had to unite against this common enemy.
