Chapter 685 Apostles Forced into Battle
Back when the ancient civilization was revived, the Earth Apostle was controlled by Li Tianran before it could release its Miracle Buildings and Followers, which directly led to a great limitation of the ancient civilization's strength. The triangular tower, once called the "Tifa Pyramid" by humans, was still buried at the original location and had not been moved.
Because the Earth Apostle was still alive, the apostles' attitude towards the triangular tower was completely different from their attitude towards the Sky Citadel. They did not choose to destroy it.
The demise of the Sky Apostle race made the apostles worry. As one race perished and Li Tianran's strength increased, they felt a strong sense of crisis. They absolutely did not want the strength of the ancient civilization to be further weakened.
And the survival of the triangular tower was an important point for the strength of both sides to change again.
If Li Tianran could destroy the triangular tower, then even if the Earth Apostle could successfully escape in the future, what threat could a second-stage evolved creature without Followers and Miracle Buildings pose to Li Tianran?
In the apostles' view, although the Earth Apostle was currently trapped by Li Tianran, as long as there was a 0.1% chance of escaping and restarting the triangular tower, their strength would be greatly increased for the ancient civilization!
Therefore, when the apostles were hiding now, choosing to aim their guns at the triangular tower was the only option.
It would be better if they could force the apostles out. If the apostles still chose to stand firm, then destroying the triangular tower would be a strong blow to the power of the ancient civilization.
The counter-attack plan was not in vain.
Under such circumstances, all countries began to assemble their armies, and a large number of nuclear weapons had also entered the pre-launch stage, waiting only for Li Tianran to issue the order for a counter-attack, and a war involving the entire human world would break out.
…
At this time, ten hours before the start of the counter-attack.
The deep sea.
Several giant city-like Miracle Buildings stood quietly on the seabed, allowing the surging undercurrents to flow, they were as stable as Mount Tai.
These Miracle Buildings were the crystallization of thousands of years of technology from the ancient civilization, and they had long been able to adapt to the "sea, land, and air" triphibious environment.
They could stand on the land of Blue Star, or float in the high altitude, and even adapt to the extremely deep seabed environment.
"That human is going to attack the triangular tower…"
A muffled voice came from one of the Miracle Buildings. It was the Night Apostle speaking.
Li Tianran's plan to attack the triangular tower was not kept particularly secret, and such a large-scale military operation could not be concealed. Within an hour of him issuing the order, the apostles were aware of it.
Although the ancient civilization was hiding in the deep sea at this time, there were still some humanoid sub-sequence Followers hiding in the human world, constantly providing the apostles with the latest information.
"This is a conspiracy." Just after the Night Apostle spoke, the Ocean Apostle's voice also rang out: "The other party wants to force us to appear and fight them through this method!"
"The problem is, he will really destroy the triangular tower." The Night Apostle said in a deep voice, "We have already lost the Sky Citadel, if we lose the triangular tower again… we can't bear it."
From the battles with Li Tianran during this period, the apostles also slowly realized the horror of this opponent.
The development speed of Kuangxi Island was too fast and too inconsistent with their previous understanding.
The results of these wars even made them feel that even if their technological weapons were unlocked, they might not be able to defeat Li Tianran with their current strength!
"The Earth Apostle and the triangular tower… are the strongest among us. If it can escape and restart the triangular tower, we can crush Li Tianran with an overwhelming posture." The Night Apostle spoke again.
Among the six major races of the ancient civilization, only the Earth Apostle's race had experienced a near-extinction destruction and then was reborn from the ashes. In desperation, the Earth Apostle forcibly brought a weak race back to its peak. Since then, the strength of the Earth Apostle and the triangular tower race had been the strongest in the entire ancient civilization, almost equivalent to the monarchical state among several vassal states!
"This is definitely Li Tianran's conspiracy!" The Ocean Apostle was very irritable, its three heads shaking impatiently: "If we leave the seabed to guard the triangular tower, we will definitely fall into Li Tianran's trap!"
Through the last incident of the Sky Apostle being killed, the apostles' fear of Li Tianran had reached its peak. Every decision Li Tianran made, the apostles had to interpret from several aspects, for fear of being led by the other party and being lured into the trap designed by the other party.
It was unknown whether this should be called a kind of sorrow.
The apostles, whose life level was far higher than Li Tianran, were now so frightened by Li Tianran that they dared not even show their faces while hiding in the sea.
"If we can guarantee that we can defeat Li Tianran after the technological weapons are revived, then the survival of the triangular tower is not important…" The Night Apostle continued, "But can we guarantee it?"
The speed of Li Tianran's development shocked the apostles.
Of course, they could sit in the deep sea and watch Li Tianran destroy the triangular tower, but who could guarantee that Li Tianran's technological level would not skyrocket again in the ten days waiting for their technological weapons to be unlocked?
Li Tianran could create a security network of the level of North Heavenly Gate in just a few days. Who could guarantee that Li Tianran would not develop space-based weapons or even star-destroying weapons in these ten days?
If, after ten days, Li Tianran's technological level leaps and bounds, and the triangular tower is also destroyed, and the most powerful race in the ancient civilization disappears… that would be a truly devastating disaster!
"He is forcing us to start a war with him, but now we still have an advantage in the face of Li Tianran! Once he really improves the technological level of Kuangxi Island again, everything will be irreversible." The Gale Apostle, who had been silent, suddenly spoke at this time, "The triangular tower cannot be destroyed."
"If Li Tianran wants to start a war with us now, then let's start a war!"
Under the turbulent deep sea, four Miracle Buildings began to tremble.
The apostles, who had originally planned to disappear and hide in the deep sea until the technological weapons were revived, had to resurface because of Li Tianran's decision after hiding for twenty-four hours.
…
On Kuangxi Island.
At this time, only the last five hours were left before the start of the counter-attack.
The warplanes and fleets of various countries had gathered towards the area where the triangular tower was located.
At this time, Li Tianran was sitting in the Sky Citadel, holding an apple in his palm.
Level 5 fruit!
The entire room was filled with a strange fragrance.
Smelling this fragrance, Li Tianran felt that the cells in his body were rapidly activated and jumping. He had reached the upper limit of his evolutionary ability due to swallowing a large number of level 4 fruits before, but at this time, he actually had a vaguely improved feeling again!
