Chapter 173: News About The Zerg
Of course, there were exceptions, but those empires were either the only ones in the world or the weakest and most remote.
Huang Xinyi had understood what Xu Qianghua meant, and she was planning to take care of that.
Seeing this, Xu Qianghua smiled and looked at everyone to see if anyone had anything else to say.
And after a quick scan, he did not see anyone saying anything, so he was going to end the first year-end meeting.
"Okay, since everyone has reported their year's progress and what they plan to do in the future, we can call the meeting en..."
"Hold on, Master, we have something to report,"
Just as Xu Qianghua was finishing his sentence, he heard someone stop him, and he knew who it was.
It was Lin Yue who had suddenly appeared in the room.
"Linzi, weren't you busy with an oracle about the Zerg?" Xu Qianghua asked.
You see, since last year, he has tasked Lin Yue to calculate the time before the first wave of Zerg arrives.
In the last timeline, the Zerg took a whole hundred years to find their planet before the first wave attacked.
But that was because the Zerg were unable to detect the planet which made it harder for them to find.
However, the main reason is that there are no strong cultivators on this planet, which made it possible for the World's Will to keep the world from being detectable.
All of that changed when the first cultivator cultivated Nascent Soul; this was when the World's barrier could not conceal the world from the outside void.
That was when the Zerg scouts noticed our planet and reported it to the nearby forward force.
However, the forward force took close to fifty years after the report, which has given the World's Will enough time to prepare.
But although the World's Will was preparing, it had tried to warn the top cultivators of the coming force, but these dumb top cultivators bruseh it off after hearing that the coming force was just the forward force.
Forward forces are basically small armies sent ahead to scout and remove any small obstacles while the main force is behind, slowly advancing.
But this became their biggest mistake as even though it was a forward force, their power was much higher than this world's.
The number of Nascent Soul cultivators alone is close to fifty, while this world only had ten Nascent Soul cultivators.
And of these ten cultivators, two or three did not reach this realm by cultivating; they reached it by taking numerous pills, which filled their bodies with impurities that would take decades to remove.
But for these cultivators, it was a great deal as although they are not able to fight with full strength, they can use more than 50%, which is enough to fight a group of Golden Core Realm cultivators without breaking a sweat.
The seven or eight were either old or poor in health after forcibly improving their realm without a solid foundation.
This means that the top cultivators on this planet were not even able to take care of themselves, much less protect themselves.
And for Gold Core realm cultivators, the Zerg had more than two hundred while this world only had 100, and from these 100, there were many old, sick cultivators who had set one foot into the gate of hell.
While the rest of them are fighting amongst themselves for more power than they can handle, they do not care about that as they all think that they are the only beings in the nearby area, so they are not worried about anything.
Anyway, after being informed, the top cultivators did not take the World's Will warning to heart and just thought of them as another experience pack coming their way.
This led them not to inform any of their subordinates, and in turn, no one other than these useless top cultivators and the World's Will knew about the impending danger.
And why didn't the World's Will warn the others? It was because it went against the laws set by the Supreme Will, which did not want the Wills to interfere with the fates of its inhabitants.
This includes not informing them about an upcoming world-ending attack, but because the Zerg is different from all the other invasions, with it devouring the planet and destroying it, the World's Will was able to warn the top cultivators.
Anyway, with no reminder, the Zerg attacked the Eastern Continent without any warning, leading to all the activities mentioned before.
If you are wondering why the Chen family did not do anything, it was mainly because they did not have a top cultivator at that time.
They were busy moving their business from the Eastern Continent to the Central, so they did not have a Nascent Soul cultivator.
But they did have multiple Peak Golden Core cultivators who had solid foundations and were close to breaking through.
However, they missed the warning, which led to their ignorance about the Zerg attack.
'But I guess it doesn't matter anymore, as in this timeline, I will ensure that the forward base is destroyed before they do anything,' Xu Qianghua thought.
To do this, he has not stopped encouraging people with good talent by giving them special missions that have earned them the cultivation materials they need to advance.
This has led to more than 100 Nascent Soul cultivators alone, with Golden Core cultivators numbering close to 900.
All of them have solid foundations without problems that can limit their strength.
And Xu Qianghua had told the Nascent Soul cultivators about the upcoming invasion so that they could prepare themselves and improve themselves without getting in over their heads.
To this, all of the clan members took the news surprisingly well, making him raise his brow.
