Chereads / The Holy Chronicles of Baator / Chapter 489 - Final Touches

Chapter 489 - Final Touches

After we had finished with the interrogation of the prisoner, we went to the Douluo Planet.

It was long ago decided that Dong'er and others would be ascending on the Douluo Planet because it was the strongest and most powerful planet in the entire Galaxy, and aside from that, it had the strongest fortifications.

It was a logical conclusion that the ascension ceremony would be taking place on the Douluo Planet.

"I have some good news and some bad news..."

I said as I sat down together with my wives as we discussed the information that I managed to extract from the head of the prison, who was 1st Class God.

"In the end, everything that you will tell us will be bad news."

Hela said with a giggle as she had a point in this because the only "good news" even if I could call it that, was the number of the powerhouses that the University Will could mobilize on its end.

"There are technically speaking 10 Tier 11 powerhouses, while one of them would be chosen to act as a vessel of the Universe Will forcible raising the person to Tier 12. So, we are rather outnumbered by them even if we have far superior firepower."

I said as Hela's words were indeed true and I felt that she kissed me on the cheek after I said my piece, to which all of them were frowning and looked grim at my words.

"That is splendid... it means that you would be incapable of helping us and there is only me, Grayfia and Venelana to fight them off... even with my Astral Necrotic Undead, it would be a hassle to fight that many Tier 11 powerhouses. Not talking about their unique nature and their connection to the Divine Realms, their combat prowess is higher than average Tier 11 expert."

Hela summarized, because she had studied the power system of the Shao Universe and knew exactly the weaknesses and strong sides of the Gods of the Shao Universe.

Their connection to their respective Divine Realms was something that was their strongest side and gave them tremendous strength.

"That is true, but both Vena and Fia could take two of them with everything that they have... that leaves us with five Tier 11 experts that would be left for Hela."

Even Hela, who usually would welcome any kind of challenge and fight, was now considering her options and what to do.

"We may take some of them out through the usage of traps, but with their current set-up and how they would be coming, it would probably be impossible. Our only opportunity would be to launch some overwhelmingly strong attack and hopefully, we will kill one or two of them... It is highly possible that they would be arriving through teleportation, so we would have a few short seconds to carry out the ambush."

I stated that if we managed to pull this out, we would be using the odds to our advantage.

Together with the fact that our side would be supported by the fleets of the Spirit Empire and the Spirit Empire also had some technology capable of injuring a Tier 11.

At the same time, it was vastly inferior to that of the Chthonian Empire of the Baator and under normal circumstances, it would be impossible.

But under the right circumstances, it would prove its worth and usefulness.

"Should we pull out one of those to the Shao Universe?"

Venelana asked, as Hela and I didn't really agree with her proposition, even if it essentially guaranteed the success of the ambush. Right now, all Blackstone Fortresses that were capable of killing Tier 12 were night impossible, not to mention Phalanx-Class Space Fortress was night impossible.

All of this was important to be placed in the Astral Boundary Universe in case of invasion from the outside.

Aside from that, there was also an unstable factor in the form of Mercurius, who was still active in the Astral Boundary, which made the presence of the Blackstone Fortresses in the Astral Boundary an absolute necessity.

"We will be alright with the weaponry of the Spirit Empire... right now, the situation in the Astral Boundary is precarious enough and we can't transport something like the Blackstone Fortress in a few hours."

I said to all of them we would need to play it more smartly this time instead of using a pure power approach.

"Spirit Empire has a few experimental spaceships and even one Space Fortress that is essentially an imitation of the Phalanx, but it was never tested on the battlefield and we don't know how efficient it would be; thus I am rather reluctant to use it in the combat."

Bibi Dong said and while I could understand her uncertainty, it wasn't much of a problem because if everything went according to the plan, then we need only one successful shot from the space fortress and nothing more.

Either way, there won't be time for the second because we have only a tiny window of opportunity when they exit the teleportation portal.

"Then it should be okey... we have done some preliminary tests, and if this is everything that we need, then the Space Fortress is combat-ready."

With this, we arrived after some time to the solar system, which was housing the Douluo Planet and it looked like pretty much similar to the last time I was here, aside from countless space fleets that were orbiting the blue planet with a few enormous continents.

Right now, I was partially marveling at the size of the planet because it was already on the size of the Secondary Grade 2 Plane, and with the Ascension of countless people into Godhood, it would evolve once more.

"This, together with the Baator, will become the foundation of my future Universe, even though calling it Baatorian Universe sounds a bit too much, considering the fact that I am planning to use the Douluo Planet together with it."

I muttered as our spaceship was descending to the Douluo Planet.
