Run Away, This Civilization Is Cheating!-Chapter 809 - 542: Unexpected Situation_2

When the war hasn’t reached a point of despair, they won’t be easily sent back to the battlefield.

In fact, in such wars, there’s no room for participation under the Eighth Stage.

They’re all hiding in Shen Hao’s universe, engaged in production work.

Finally, at a certain moment, when a powerful legion from outside the Divine Domain tore through the universe and invaded the Dark Deity Domain, over seventy percent of the professionals in the Dark Deity Domain had been eliminated or captured.

The remaining thirty percent had already fallen apart.

To the invading professional legion, this outcome was clearly a major setback.

"They captured more than half of the professionals?"

"Coeus Master actually surrendered."

"The connection between the professionals in this Divine Domain and the Holy Ancient Tree has been severed. They don’t know what’s happening outside, nor do they know what kind of information the Holy Ancient Tree is passing to us."

"The invaders won’t succeed."

"..."

After a brief and efficient sharing of intelligence and subsequent battle planning, the invaders did not choose to directly confront the Trial Civilizations.

They chose to guard their position and tore a rift, allowing the roots of the Holy Ancient Tree outside to return to the Dark Deity Domain once again, and stationed themselves in this Divine Domain, growing and reclaiming the universe of this world.

"A very smart move."

The Trial Civilizations also held a battle meeting.

Shen Hao said frankly, "Currently, I don’t have enough ability to stop the complete invasion of this world’s laws."

The Dark Deity Domain was merely a place where the Trial Civilizations could temporarily gain home-field advantage through secret infiltration.

However, this world still ultimately belongs to them.

Unless Shen Hao or the Trial Civilizations can completely control the laws of this world, mastering the Law Ancient Tree that’s manifested from those laws, they won’t be able to stop the gradual loss of initiative.

This was something they had anticipated long ago.

What’s unanticipated was that the other side had much stronger forces, and they weren’t even in a hurry to start a war.

Instead, they gathered at the gate, taking a defensive stance.

This was contrary to the initial expectations of the Trial Civilizations.

Ultimately, why did they want to conquer this world? Wasn’t it to engage in a frontal war with these professionals, leveraging home-field and law advantages when they were still lacking in the early stages?

Even if such an advantage is temporary, it can still accumulate enough points and foundation through advantageous warfare.

Thus, allowing them to grow rapidly.

"I suspect that the top warriors in this world might already know about the existence of the Civilization Trial, or at least have some critical intelligence information," said the Oak Emperor.

Shen Hao nodded slightly.

He also had similar suspicions.

At Level 80, the information blocking function of the Civilization Trial System is no longer entirely effective.

For example, Ming Hong.

He had vaguely discovered something at the time and could even provide certain information to the participating trial civilizations through specific means.

For a Supreme Tai Xu, knowing the existence of the Civilization Trial System, it wouldn’t be surprising to leave some defensive intelligence or methods for the world he valued.

Realizing this possibility, all the representatives of the trial civilizations on the battlefield looked grim.

It’s too difficult.

The trial itself is incredibly challenging, with the enemy’s number and power far exceeding them, plus it’s a highly cohesive and orderly group, proficient in various combat tactics.

Under such conditions, if the other side fully understands the Trial Civilizations, and if the depths of this world’s laws contain numerous countermeasures targeting the trial civilizations...

The difficulty has broken through the sky!

Some even couldn’t help but glance at Shen Hao again.

If the trial’s difficulty didn’t lessen with the destruction of the target civilization, it wouldn’t be surprising if the Human Civilization was attacked by all the trial civilizations at this moment.

The other trial civilizations were entirely dragged in.

But under this intense scrutiny, Shen Hao didn’t show any concern.

After thinking briefly, he said in a deep voice, "Let’s initiate the war."

Starting the war is indeed an option right now, but it’s also extremely difficult.

In the past few centuries, although they had sealed off the Dark Deity Domain and initiated preliminary skirmishes within it, the outside professionals were not unprepared.

They had integrated numerous professionals from top to bottom, recruited countless individuals into the legion, and even established temporary management orders during the war period, concentrating production power to create a large volume of war equipment.

Given their numerical and foundational advantages, presenting a defensive posture now makes it impregnable.

Even the laws could not infiltrate their defensive zone.

The entire Dark Deity Domain had essentially split into two regions.

One was the professional legion protected and defended under the Holy Ancient Tree, while the other was under the influence of the laws of the trial civilizations, but continuously dissipating this influence.

Going on the offensive meant abandoning their home-field advantage.

From a superficial perspective, such an action was akin to suicide.

But the Oak Emperor seemed to realize something, looking at Shen Hao and asking, "Did you obtain a critical reward at the last Fate Node?"

Indeed.

In the previous Fate Node, the Human Civilization was still the number one.

Shen Hao had long used the ranking reward hack and collected six ranking rewards in total.

This time, the ranking reward item was a Level 81 Purple Epic foundation!

Although it’s unusual to see a Level 81 Purple Epic appear on the number one spot, the level alone is enough to easily outweigh the difference in quality.

Of course, it still pales compared to the Level 82 Golden Legendary Equipment obtained from the Kejin Civilization.

But it’s still powerful.

If it’s of a type that has a specific role given the current situation, even better.

Fortunately, with the hack, Shen Hao had a chance to select three rewards from the hidden treasure trove.

At the time, he anticipated various possibilities and chose one for the worst-case scenario.

Now, he revealed it.

"The Lawless Extraordinary Universe," Shen Hao exhibited the item in his palm.

It was, in reality, a universe.

An explicitly manifested universe.

Lawless refers to laws.

Extraordinary Laws.

A lawless universe of extraordinary laws may sound contradictory, but it wasn’t.

Because the extraordinary law of this universe was that "all extraordinary laws can be used."

Essentially, it’s a universe with only some basic extraordinary laws.

All warriors entering it wouldn’t be influenced or oppressed by those simple extraordinary laws.

In other words—this is a special battlefield where neither combatant would have any law advantage!

Without law advantage, it would come down to individual strength, foundation, technique, and the quality of the extraordinary path.

Instantly, the expressions of everyone at the meeting turned rather grim.

They would lack law advantage, but so would the opponent.

However, their opponents outnumbered them by tenfold, if not dozens of times!

"This equipment isn’t completely fair either," Shen Hao said, "The initiative still lies in our hands. We won’t have to fight against tens of times the number of enemies directly, but several times, or even tens of times, is possible."
