Dou Youyou contacted her junior and senior disciples.
However, the result was that they could not leave their respective cities.
It wasn't because they didn't want to leave, but because they truly couldn't.
They also wanted to reunite with their master, but their homes were there. If they left, their hometowns would surely face utter devastation, and perhaps by staying, they could preserve a sliver of hope.
"Senior sister, if it's truly unavoidable, I will come to meet you in the end. This is my hometown after all, with my family and friends. I cannot stand by and watch them remain here!"
"Alright, but you must also be careful of your own safety. If you absolutely cannot hold on, come to Xijiang City. Master will protect us here!"
"Understood!"
In fact, the moment they logged out of the game, they received requests from the highest-ranking officials of their local governments, asking them to remain in their regions.
After all, at this stage, these few individuals represented the most powerful skills known to humanity.
Based on previous assessments, the number of players with a "Beginner War God" rating did not exceed fifty.
War Gods above the beginner level were even rarer.
Although their abilities had been enhanced over time, and the number of players with a "Beginner War God" rating had certainly increased, it was conservatively estimated to be no more than a hundred or so.
Seeing Dou Youyou's slightly troubled expression beside him, Zhang Ping comforted her.
"It's alright, they are already quite powerful. As long as they don't encounter Royal-class demon slaves, there shouldn't be major problems!"
"Yes, I hope they can stay alive and well!"
Players, having gained game abilities, also recognized their newfound strength. Indeed, over these three days, it had caused quite a stir.
However, just as the system, referred to as "Miss System," could grant them abilities, it could also revoke them.
It was precisely because of this that many who wished to use their abilities for criminal acts began to tremble.
Three days, neither long nor short, and that day had finally arrived.
As everyone was walking down the street as usual, a deafening roar suddenly echoed from the sky.
"BOOM!!!"
Immediately, the air raid sirens sounded.
Fierce battles were already unfolding in the sky.
"Quick, look how huge that warship is!"
"The demon slaves have finally arrived, and judging by the situation, it seems a bit troublesome!"
"What do you mean 'a bit troublesome'? This is simply an attempt to destroy humanity!"
"Why is our Earth's defense system so fragile?"
"Are you kidding? Our technology is already far behind theirs. How could they not breach our defenses with ease? However, looking at the situation, the demon slaves have also suffered some losses!"
At the same time, urgent communication videos were broadcast on television, live streams, and mobile phones.
Demon slaves are attacking, all personnel are to enter a state of readiness. The elderly, the weak, women, and children are all to enter air-raid shelters.
Zhang Ping walked out of the villa and looked up at the sky.
"What's the current situation of the battle?"
[The defense system built previously can still intercept for a while, but it won't last long.]
"It should at least reduce the number of demon slave members, shouldn't it!"
[They have reduced some, but they are just cannon fodder. Please be prepared!]
Zhang Ping spoke on the Heavenly God Sect channel.
"Prepare for battle. Remember, do not fight alone. The lessons taught these past three days are crucial. The Heavenly Sword Formation is your ultimate life-saving skill, so you must team up, you must team up!"
"Yes, Village Chief, don't worry, we remember!"
"Village Chief, I'm a little scared. Will I die?"
The Heavenly God Sect chat channel fell silent.
Death might not be the outcome everyone desired, but death was inevitable.
Zhang Ping slowly said, "Believe in yourselves, you won't. Remember to call for help when you encounter danger. Heavenly God Sect disciples nearby must go to the rescue immediately. Only by supporting each other can we go to the end, can we survive in this apocalypse. Remember, I am in Xijiang City!"
"Yes, thank you, Village Chief!"
Some were excited, but more were fearful.
The defensive formations in the sky began to show signs of damage under the relentless attacks.
Following that, the military also dispatched powerful firepower support.
At this moment, the people on the ground were still unharmed.
Unless the military completely lost air superiority, it was not yet the turn for these ordinary people to fight back.
This was a terrifying battle, with fragments of shells occasionally falling from the sky.
They even used every means possible to prevent the demon slave warships from advancing.
Large-scale laser weapons, and even high-yield nuclear and hydrogen bombs had been deployed onto the battlefield.
However, the technological disparity created an insurmountable gap between humanity and the demon slaves.
Although human technology could inflict considerable damage on the demon slaves, it was only damage, not fatal.
In just one day, the defensive fortresses in outer space around Blue Star were completely dismantled.
The demon slave army advanced into Blue Star's atmosphere.
Warships, missiles, and drones from various countries' armies were fully deployed.
But this only slowed down the descent of the demon slave army; it did not annihilate them in mid-air.
Looking at the terrifying demon slave army, the people on Blue Star swallowed hard, uncertain if they could survive this ordeal.
A player patted his chest.
"Put on your gear!"
This sentence seemed to trigger a chain reaction.
"Put on your gear!"
Almost everyone with the ability to do so donned their equipment.
At this moment, the air raid siren stopped.
A voice sounded out.
"Defend our homeland, expel the demon slaves!"
"Defend our homeland, expel the demon slaves!"

The demon slave warships, though somewhat damaged, had ultimately landed on Earth.
The moment the demon slave warships' hatches opened, countless beginner and intermediate demon slaves rushed out.
They were met by the human army.
But the demon forces were far from limited to this.
Their highest-level warships descended upon the Pacific Ocean.
Innumerable demon slaves burrowed into the seabed and began to spread out frantically.
[Ding! Activating Xijiang City Defense Shield!]
A faint blue defensive shield enveloped the entire Xijiang City.
The people of Xijiang City visibly felt less anxious upon seeing this defensive shield; at least they had something protecting them.
Moreover, everyone basically knew that the Village Chief was in Xijiang City.
The first to be attacked by the demon slaves were the coastal cities.
Although the armies of various countries could block some of the demon slave attacks head-on, they were unable to prevent those who had submerged themselves underwater.
With demon slaves attacking from both the front and the rear, the joint fleet of warships and aircraft carriers in the Pacific was annihilated.
Following the defeat of the 1st Group Army, the demon slaves began a full-scale assault on humanity.
As the demon slaves landed, humanity officially entered its apocalyptic era.
"Mere beginner demon slaves, be slain!"
"Where are the disciples of my Heavenly God Sect, kill!"
The demon slaves hadn't even figured out what was happening before the beginner demon slaves who had just landed were beaten bloody within moments.
Conversely, the humans not only did not retreat but were even capable of pursuing their victory.
"Damn it, wasn't it said that this blue planet only had low-end technology and no martial artists? What is going on!"
A hoarse voice echoed from within the demon slave headquarters warship!
