Chapter 1665: Chapter 533: The "Arms" Race Triggered by Fan Mao (Part 2)
"Moreover, because there is no matching ability, their strength is lower than that of a normal Martial Artist."
The Favored of [Longevity] listed his speculations one by one. Even without participating in the battle personally, he had nearly pinpointed his guesses based on the warship’s observation data and his understanding of biology.
"Yes, that’s exactly the feeling. During the battle, I relied on long-range methods to engage them.
Although they are hard to kill, their long-range means pose no threat to me."
The Seventh Rank believer, who had just successfully stalled the most Extraordinary Plants using Space Divine Technique, expressed excitement and immediately offered his experience to corroborate this idea.
With him taking the lead, the Seventh Rank follower who had transformed into a giant dragon quickly added:
"Me too! I discovered that the Tree-man only had brute strength, so I suppressed them in melee combat because of this..."
"And me..."
"..."
The returning high-tier believers shared more details of the battle one by one.
The Favored of [Longevity] nodded, glanced at the two Favored from the [Eternal] and [Creator] Churches, and affirmed:
"That’s right.
Fan Mao has seemingly found a way to reinforce the physical strength of these plants.
For Fan Mao, who possesses Life Superpower and has always had a remarkable understanding of the Life System, this is not impossible.
In reality, however, these Extraordinary Plants do not truly possess Seventh Rank power; essentially, they are still just ordinary Plant Legions.
It’s simply that Fan Mao’s own enhancements to the Plant Legion, together with the inherent strength of the plants, have presented this illusion of a Seventh Rank combat capability.
If we must classify them, they would be "elite monsters" with Seventh Rank Life Value..."
Upon final confirmation, all other believers and Favored present breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as they don’t truly create high-tier combat power, we are safe.
When the battle report first arrived, both the high-tier believers who participated in the fight and those aware of the battle process almost believed that Fan Mao had truly created high-tier Extraordinary Plants.
Purely based on battle results, everything looked far too convincing, causing inevitable concern.
As long as Fan Mao didn’t actually create high-tier plants and only manufactured an upgraded version through some technology and boosts,
then no matter how strong these Extraordinary Plants are now, they are still limited by Fan Mao’s own power.
Whether or not this conclusion is fact, it is at least the most reliable one we can rely on now, enough to put everyone’s mind at ease.
"Thankfully, we were almost tricked by Fan Mao...
Nearly believed that Fan Mao found a way to mass-produce Seventh Rank plants, preparing to face a group of them on the battlefield.
If that were true, we might as well surrender."
The Favored from the [Holy] Church managed to pull a smile on their face, half-jokingly.
Though her approach seemed awkward, it did relieve some of the tension in the room, adding a slight smile to everyone’s faces.
The current situation isn’t great, but compared to the initial worst-case scenario of "those Extraordinary Plants being truly high-tier," it seems like good news.
"But even so, the combat power of Fan Mao’s Plant Legion is real.
The weakest point of the Mechanical Master’s Mechanical Army is its fragility, but now Fan Mao has found a way to mitigate that, making her Plant Legion many times more powerful than before.
Judging Fan Mao’s personal strength must be upgraded further.
If we truly face her, we might have to pay several times the combat power to contend with Fan Mao."
The Favored of [Longevity] reminded, and the other Favored and believers nodded in agreement, their expressions turning serious once more.
But the Favored of [Creator], after pondering for a moment, suddenly smiled:
"Who said we must confront Fan Mao?
The battlefield is vast, and Fan Mao is only one person!
She can’t possibly cover the entire battlefield, nor can she affect so many battlefields at once.
As long as our high-tier believers don’t provoke her, she can’t kill us from afar no matter how powerful she is.
The Plant Legion is strong but can’t stray too far from Fan Mao, and a large group of them becomes a significant target for the fleet.
In front of the fleet, the Plant Legion has no significance, no matter how powerful!
Even if Fan Mao uses teleportation tactics, sacrificing a part of the fleet can suppress her with fleet strength.
Since once Fan Mao makes a move, the warships can’t be kept, it’s not really a loss!"
The other Favored were silent for a moment, then nodded slightly, accepting this point of view.
This method is indeed cold-blooded, but it is also the most rational approach.
Sacrificing in advance to achieve battle results is more valuable than waiting for the enemy to kill us all.
Then, the Favored of [Creator] smiled more warmly, with a lighter tone.
"Moreover, perhaps you haven’t noticed.
Recently, it seems that Fan Mao’s actions have significantly decreased, at least compared to the wars at the borders of the Three Great Civilizations, the actions have reduced considerably.
According to our internal intelligence, Fan Mao is likely being limited due to the apprehension of the Three Great Civilizations.
