Chapter 1142: Chapter 452 Counterattack
Zhou Tian certainly didn’t wish to face an invasion by a large number of hostile forces like he did now. However, since he was forced into this situation by the circumstances, Zhou Tian wouldn’t dwell on its occurrence too much. After all, at this moment he had already thought of a method to respond, and all he needed to do was follow the plan he had devised. Zhou Tian was very confident that this would allow him to overcome the current crisis.
And so...
Without any hesitation, as soon as Zhou Tian received news of his territory being invaded by a multitude of monsters, he almost acted without thinking and immediately issued the relevant orders.
No matter what, Zhou Tian would never allow those monsters to take over his territory. Thus, as those forces began their actions against him, Zhou Tian also didn’t hesitate to counterattack.
Sticking to his original plan, Zhou Tian didn’t retaliate against those NPCs and players. As soon as they attacked his territory, he immediately pounced on the nearest Emperor-level monster force.
Although Zhou Tian hadn’t fully fortified his defenses, with the current structure of his forces, the mini-bosses within his territory already had the strength to resist demigods. Thus, even without deliberate defenses, he estimated that it wouldn’t be easy for those forces to take over his territory.
Therefore, Zhou Tian confidently asserted that, despite the substantial forces attacking his land, if they truly wanted to conquer it, he believed it would surely not be an easy task.
Consequently, although there were many forces attacking his territory, the loss of Zhou Tian’s lands shouldn’t be too severe. As such, while his territory kept falling, Zhou Tian estimated that if he could take over an Emperor-level monster force’s territory, it would be enough to occupy those attacking forces for a long time.
As a result, with this thought in mind, Zhou Tian swiftly found himself facing the Emperor-level boss of that monster force.
And it wasn’t until they faced Zhou Tian’s large army that the Emperor-level boss realized he had been targeted by Zhou Tian. Upon discovering this, there was no regret in the Emperor-level boss, but fear was definitely present.
The Emperor-level boss was acutely aware that, given Zhou Tian’s current situation and the location of his territory, whether or not he had taken action against Zhou Tian, he believed that Zhou Tian would certainly not spare him. Therefore, even though it was the boss who had taken the initiative to strike against Zhou Tian, he didn’t regret his decision. However, considering the strength Zhou Tian wielded at the moment, the Emperor-level boss couldn’t help but feel afraid. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
The Emperor-level boss was all too aware of the disparity in strength between monsters of different levels. Therefore, he couldn’t help but feel afraid of Zhou Tian because he knew very well that if Zhou Tian hadn’t set his sights on him, he might not gain an advantage against Zhou Tian but wouldn’t necessarily suffer a loss. But now that Zhou Tian had targeted him, even if their plan succeeded and they managed to kill the newly upgraded ’Human Emperor’ Zhou Tian, he estimated that he, being the target of Zhou Tian’s focus, would certainly have no chance of survival.
Nevertheless, even though the Emperor-level boss was afraid, he had no choice but to stand firm and confront Zhou Tian. He was very clear that, from any perspective, there was no longer any possibility of peaceful coexistence between Zhou Tian and himself. Therefore, Zhou Tian would definitely attack him no matter what, so rather than dwelling on unrealistic possibilities, it would be better to settle down and fight Zhou Tian. It wasn’t guaranteed that he would be able to save his life, but it was always better than pinning his hopes on his enemy.
As expected and logically, when the Emperor-level boss discovered Zhou Tian’s response, out of fear he unexpectedly took the initiative to attack Zhou Tian.
Regardless of how strong Zhou Tian was, the Emperor-level boss still believed that Zhou Tian was currently in a tough spot in the grand scheme of things. Hence, considering the situation at that time, he didn’t need to do anything extra. As long as he could hold out for a while under Zhou Tian’s assault, if the battle dragged on too long, even if his strength was inferior to Zhou Tian’s, Zhou Tian would likely be the first to falter.
Therefore, given the situation at the time, although the Emperor-level boss’s reaction was somewhat unexpected, it wasn’t an incomprehensible move.
Passive defense was very difficult for the Emperor-level boss to maintain against Zhou Tian’s large forces. Therefore, rather than trying to withstand Zhou Tian’s assault, he was better off thinking of how to draw Zhou Tian’s attention. Given his strength, while not considered very powerful, he believed that when he launched an attack against Zhou Tian, Zhou Tian would certainly not be able to ignore him. So, when things progressed to that step, the outcome of the battle with Zhou Tian would be entirely dependent on that one fight.
The Emperor-level boss wasn’t afraid of Zhou Tian disagreeing, because right now his choice was also quite advantageous for Zhou Tian.
