Chapter 410: Chapter 323: He’s Not Fighting Alone._2
To hold the position of Minister of Trade on the Fourfold Planet, one naturally need not dwell on the social status and power at one’s disposal.
But now, such a figure lacked his usual composure and calm, instead trembling inconspicuously, his forehead slick with cold sweat, and his pale, dry-lipped countenance betrayed extreme weakness.
“Chief Li, let’s evacuate some people and retreat,”
“As long as players from each planet escape, at least we won’t face extermination. There’s still a chance. Any later and all opportunities will be lost.”
Yes.
An escaping player, no matter where they fled, could not avoid the grim fate of being wiped out as a race.
...
However, if enough players escaped—not many, just about 10% from each planet—that would be sufficient. Even if the entire Awesome Starfield were destroyed, at least everyone would still be alive.
The players who died would remain in hell.
Rather than being exterminated, without even the chance to stay in hell.
It must be said, it was a good strategy. If the 67 Starfield had thought of this, perhaps their Starfield would not have been wiped out entirely.
“...”
Li Yi said nothing, just looking towards the rapidly assembling Void Portals not far away with a somewhat ugly expression on his face. He understood these matters better than Minister Ke.
He even knew more.
For instance, the Void Portal could not be destroyed. This portal was not a product of the level-up game, but an innate ability of the Void Clan, part of a completely different energy system, not on the same plane.
This portal was accessible only to players of the Void Clan.
Other players were not permitted to enter.
And any Prop or Skill used against this Void Portal would have no effect; it would not suffer the slightest damage because the portal was not a physical entity. It could be roughly understood as a kind of ethereal existence.
At this moment, more and more players with anxious expressions were rushing to present their advice. Li Yi just took a deep breath, his face slightly pale as he closed his eyes, looked up to the sky, his lips tightly shut and trembling slightly without saying a word.
Retreat?
Retreat was impossible!
Yes, by retreating, they could indeed avoid the disaster of being wiped out as a race!
But they would never have the opportunity to return to the Awesome Starfield.
Most players would have to stay in the hell of their own planet until their deaths, while the few that remained would drift among other Starfields for the rest of their lives, unable to return home. The Awesome Starfield, which had been a glorious central hub of trade for several surrounding Starfields...
would wither overnight.
If they retreated, all the efforts Li Yi had put in over the years would go up in smoke.
Over the years, he had consolidated all the planets on the Awesome Starfield, sparing no expense to build an external trade chain, tying everyone’s interests to his ship, uniting people’s hearts with a common purpose.
Just as things were gradually improving, how could he just watch his empire of commerce—the blueprint for which had yet to materialize—be destroyed?
Impossible!
With a determined resolve, Li Yi opened his eyes wide; the usual laziness and nonchalance had vanished from his face, supplanted by a ferocious expression and bloodthirsty gleam in his eyes as he growled, “This is our home. Flee? Where would we flee to?”
“Do you want us to live in exile on other Starfields for the rest of our lives?”
“We wouldn’t even dare to die.”
“The moment any of us who fled died, it would trigger the extermination mechanism, and our brethren clinging to life in hell would die with us.”
