At nine o"clock, Tyre took his leave. In just a few minutes of conversation, the man who had the t.i.tle of War G.o.d had talked about the difficulties of the western front. But Ben could still hear that the advance of the Golden Axe had been halted, and that the battle on the west was now in a deadlock.

In a canyon three thousand kilometers to the west, the Golden Axe was attacked by four to five alien races. In the canyon"s special terrain, the Golden Axe couldn"t use its superior number of soldiers to cover up the enemies with a sea of people. At this moment, the familiarity of the alien race with their geography and their character, which was even more tenacious than that of human soldiers, was finally brought into full play.

Under Tyre"s command, the Golden Axe divided the legion into several teams. Every team took turns to attack. When the forward team"s spirit gradually faded, they would order them to retreat and follow the following team. Using this method, in the not-so-s.p.a.cious canyon s.p.a.ce, the golden battle axe still charged forward tenaciously. However, the process wasn"t as smooth as they thought. The alien that was killed, when the soldiers pa.s.sed over its corpse, would suddenly jump in and deliver a fatal blow. It was only when the soldiers behind them made another stab or shot that they actually killed these tenacious lives.

Under these circ.u.mstances, the soldiers had to allocate more time and energy to kill every single alien they saw, while at the same time guarding against death. Although in the Golden Axe there are specialized personnel to dissect the discovered aliens, a.n.a.lyze their physiological structures and identify their weaknesses.

However, they were of different races. Even if they were alien races with very similar territories, the structure of their bodies was as different as heaven and earth. Therefore, it was very difficult to find common weaknesses among the different races. And humans, as a large race, had obvious weaknesses. Their hearts and heads were almost identical, fatal points. A high-level esper might be able to modify their internal organs, making it difficult to kill them. However, there was almost no way left for the head. Once beheaded, even a powerhouse of the tenth step or above would have a hard time surviving.

And even if they survived, they would have to pay a huge price.

However, the non-humankind was different. They could have multiple hearts in their bodies, or their hearts could be wrapped in h.o.r.n.y objects, making it difficult for them to pierce through with swords and spears. Even if their heads were chopped off, some races would be able to extend their fangs at their severed heads and form limbs that could allow them to quickly crawl for short distances. Once these non-humankind beings had escaped, as long as they absorbed enough nutrients, they would be able to regenerate their own bodies.

In this situation, facing more and more unimaginable alien races deep in the west, the Gold Axe"s advancement was clearly difficult to accomplish.

As Ben had expected, the reason Tier had come back this time was not only because he had heard that Valkyrie and Carío were injured, but also because Asgard had been able to send more troops. Tyre"s intention was that the Hammer of Destruction under the command of Thor would be activated. Not only was the s.h.i.+eld of Dawn specialized in defense, there were certain light elemental skills that could allow a soldier to recover from his or her injuries in a short period of time, or could also help him or her heal normal injuries.

It could be said that with the s.h.i.+eld of Dawn, the casualties would be minimized.

He had the Hammer of Destruction, which was adept at attacking and was known for its defense and defense, and the s.h.i.+eld of Dawn, which was a weapon which was responsible for destroying others, as well as a s.h.i.+eld that protected them. Under the joint efforts of the three great legions, the alien"s line of defense would be broken through in a short period of time.

As the leader of the western army, it was not surprising that Tyre had such an idea, but he also had his own concerns.

First of all, if three of the five Asgard legions were to leave, it would leave a gap in their strength. Although the Heroic Spirit Hall and the Dark Council were in a truce, if they received this news, it would be hard for them to be sure that their old rival, the Head of the Dark Council, Oglock, would not suddenly raise his troops and attack.

In fact, if only the spear of victory was left behind, and Loki"s dark blade point. Asgard"s strength was not enough to defend against the full attack of the Dark Council. Regardless of whether it was the number of high-ranked powerhouses or the average number of soldiers, they were still quite a distance away from the Blood Knights of the Dark Council.

Second, Asgard is a semi-democratic city. Although Ben was the one in charge of the city, he was not the one who had the final say in everything. He had been especially decisive when it came to dispatching the other two legions. Below me, there is a council that is formed by the n.o.bles, dignitaries, merchants, and other representatives from various areas of the city, in addition to the Hall of Sovereigns.

The Council may take part in important decisions in the city and decide whether the proposal shall be pa.s.sed by referendum. Although Ben had the final say, public opinion was a factor he had to worry about. After all, the pillars that Asgard had built were not without their support.

Therefore, he could not immediately make any promises to Tyre. He could only agree to move this proposal to the council"s agenda as soon as possible.

There was no doubt that Asgard"s system of power made Ben seem less arbitrary than Oglock"s. However, Eternal Night City appeared to be Oglock"s sole power, but it was because the entire city was enveloped in the wings of the Dark Council and the Oglock. Once the Dark Council was weakened, Eternal Night City would immediately fall into turmoil as they fought for power.

But Asgard was different, and Ben had considered it early on. It is convenient to concentrate power on individuals, but the foundations of the city are not secure enough. Release part of the power to involve some important people in the construction of the city. In addition to increasing their sense of belonging to the city, it was also guaranteed that, in the absence of the city, it would continue to operate under the leaders.h.i.+p of the Council.

Even though this would also bring about an upheaval in the transfer of power, the upheaval was, after all, contained within a relatively small area and would not affect the survival of the city.

This was the biggest difference between Ben and Oglock. He was willing to place a shackle around himself, so that his desires would not be left unchecked.

He called his secretary, Julie, and told her to draw up a proposal for Tyre"s proposal, which would be sent to the Council in the order of priority, and to ask it to discuss the resolution as soon as possible. After Julie left, Ben turned on his personal brain and a transparent screen rose from the edge of his desk. After a brief start, a working window appeared on the screen.

On the lowest level of the window, there was a flas.h.i.+ng icon of a file, and above the icon, in red numbers, was the number of files. The doc.u.ments were selected, cla.s.sified and forwarded to Ben by the secretary, Julie, and required his approval today. The scope of the matter was very wide, from the funding for biochemical research to the purchase of materials for new types of chariots, or the construction of cities, or some new system that had been negotiated and approved by the council.

In fact, Ben"s day"s work was quite c.u.mbersome, and he had to deal with a wide range of issues. And his decision had to do with the development of Asgard, so Ben worked more hours a day than anyone else in the city.

While he was engrossed in the doc.u.ments, the icons of a head on the light screen suddenly flickered. It was a request for a video link. Ben placed his finger on the camera icon and a square box popped up. In the square was the smiling face of Bader.

Ben smiled back, clicked on the icon, and pressed the light b.u.t.ton.

A rectangular window appeared in the middle of the screen, and in the middle of the window was a link progress bar. The progress bar was quickly completed. Following that, the window flashed, and the handsome face of Bader appeared.

The G.o.d of Light, Bader, was always gentle. If this was the old era, then Badr"s character would undoubtedly be the best. This handsome man was so gentle in appearance and heart that he had a kind of tolerance for things. Bart was just, merciful, and well-loved in Asgard. Unfortunately, he was in a new era of turmoil, and gentleness and benevolence were sometimes indecisive surrogate words. As for the resolute Tyre, he was more suited to be the pioneer and creator of an era. That was why he tacitly agreed that War G.o.d was his successor.

But all of this didn"t stop Ben from liking the child on the screen. He smiled and said, "What"s the matter? My child. "

"My dear father, please forgive me for wasting your precious time." Through the window, the handsome G.o.d of Light said politely, "I have dealt with most of the Cossacks" matters. Angie is fast asleep, and other than the few living corpses on the second floor, the rest of the beasts have already left for the southwest wilderness." The dark tip of Loki"s blade had confirmed that these creatures would not be wandering around the Jurian Mountains. I would try to calm the effects of the alien horde as soon as possible. However, there is one more thing that I have to trouble you with, Father. "

"Is it about zeros?" Ben asked casually.

"Yes." Bader nodded. "After a.s.sisting the Wind Treader squad to leave the military base, Zero needed healing due to his severe injuries. Therefore, his equipment is temporarily in our custody." In addition to their mission items, a diary of experiments was found in zero"s travel equipment. I also found a very special weapon. It was a handgun, but my tech engineers couldn"t a.n.a.lyze its structure. During the two days of zero hospitalization, my people a.n.a.lyzed the weapon without destroying it with the aid of the instrument, and concluded that its driving system was completely unlike the technology we currently possess. The technology that this cannon represents is one to two levels higher than ours. Its materials, structure, energy circuits, core systems and the like all have research value … "

At this point, Bader hesitated. He could already guess what the boy was thinking. Simply put, the cannon was now in Bader"s hands, and he wanted to stay for research purposes. And, judging from earlier spending on goods by the Treasury, zero has been discharged. Then, Zero would naturally ask for the equipment from Badr. If it was anyone else, then with Badr"s ident.i.ty, he could reject them immediately.

But because of the relations.h.i.+p between Ben and Zero, the G.o.d of Light had no choice but to ask Ben for his opinion.

"Return that child"s equipment, and don"t ask how he obtained that weapon." "Then, in the name of the headquarters, issue a task for the recycling of the weapons. If you need money, he will hand the cannon over to you."

When Bader heard this, his eyes lit up. He only spoke a few words, but it made him understand the difference between voluntary and reluctant. He immediately nodded in agreement and cancelled his video call. After the window closed, Bader"s words reminded Ben of zero. This time, Ben remembered, Zero had come back from the military base with more than just a weapon that had excited Badr. There was a woman.

A woman with the ability of at least the eighth step!
