Mighty Lord

Chapter 2919 - 940

Regardless of the circumstances, given the situation at that time, Zhou Tian’s plan was to have his angels and those modified angels fight. Thus, given the circumstances, when he saw those Deities dispatch modified angels to confront him, having his own angels meet the challenge was certainly part of Zhou Tian executing his plan.In fact, once Zhou Tian’s actions were set in motion, they did yield quite favorable results.

One strategy followed another in attacks, and when Zhou Tian’s angels were fighting those modified angels, each time they used Abyssal Power, it increased the influence of the Abyssal World over the Paradise World a bit more. In that situation, the combat did not last very long before Zhou Tian noticed that the suppression effect of Paradise World’s Consciousness against him had lessened considerably.

Paradise World is not easily captured, and at that time, Zhou Tian was not disappointed by the modest gains. However, even though his plan proved effective at that time, Zhou Tian still had no choice but to make the decision to retreat.

Zhou Tian surely wanted to continue the war, as his plan had been proven viable. And given the circumstances, even without any other actions, merely having his angels continuously fight against modified angels would be enough to erode the Paradise World. Once Zhou Tian could fight normally within Paradise World, regardless of the Light God King’s attitude towards his arrival, it’s estimated that by then he would be powerless to prevent Zhou Tian’s invasion.

Unfortunately, even though Zhou Tian did prove his plan’s viability through actions, he did discover a problem when the plan truly unfolded.

There was nothing wrong with Zhou Tian’s plan, and if his actions could continue indefinitely, it would be guaranteed that Zhou Tian could successfully erode Paradise World. However, after Zhou Tian’s angels fought those modified angels for some time, his angels began to struggle.

Indeed, in terms of strength, Zhou Tian’s angels were certainly stronger than those modified angels. But Zhou Tian’s side had a major disadvantage: the angels’ numbers were far fewer than the modified angels.

Zhou Tian showed great favor to the Angel Race, and under his support, they thrived within the Abyss World, with many new angels emerging yearly. But even with support from the Abyss World, it still takes time to grow new angels into competent Warriors.

Evidently, up to the current moment, even though the Angel Clan in the Abyss World has grown considerably, their numbers still can’t compare with the modified angels in Paradise World. After all, how long have the angels brought to the Abyss World been developing, and how long have the angels in Paradise World been developing?

This isn’t to say that the Angel Clan in the Abyss World will never catch up to those modified angels in Paradise World, but it is certain that even if such a day does come, it won’t be anytime soon. At least as of now, the number of angels in the Abyss World compared to the number of modified angels in Paradise World is completely incomparable.

Thus, although for a time, Zhou Tian’s angels showed strong individual capabilities and didn’t fall behind, as the fight dragged on, Zhou Tian had to retreat.

Why not retreat? Could Zhou Tian really exhaust all his angels for such small gains?

As the fight continued, the state of Zhou Tian’s angels significantly declined, and in that situation, how strong they’d be was a matter that required Zhou Tian’s attention. Meanwhile, although many modified angels were killed, those Deities controlling them wouldn’t care about such losses. Billions of casualties had already occurred, so as long as they could capture Zhou Tian and the other invaders, sacrificing billions more modified angels was something the Deities could accept.

Therefore, although many modified angels suffered losses, they were largely unaffected. Instead, when those modified angels counterattacked, Zhou Tian’s angels, now in weakened states, might not have the ability to resist.

Although Zhou Tian was willing to bear certain losses to annex Paradise World, in the absence of adequate gains, it was certainly unnecessary to mindlessly deplete his angels this way.

So initially, whether recognizing his angels were in good condition and fearlessly competing or just wanting to test the feasibility of his plan, the fearless Zhou Tian, once the situation turned unfavorable, promptly decided to retreat without hesitation.
