Chapter 1210: Chapter 474 Counterattack_3
Zhou Tian was indeed furious at that time because he was quite aware of the threat the Human Emperor posed to him, and he had also suffered some losses.
According to the enemy’s plan, if Zhou Tian didn’t make a counterattack, given the current situation, it was highly likely that his territories would eventually be annihilated by the enemies. However, Zhou Tian had his achievements for a reason. The minor actions of those Deities, although effective, would still find it difficult to bring him down.
As a result, just as the Deities were wondering how to deal with Zhou Tian and had even prepared to let Zhou Tian’s hostile forces annex his territory, Zhou Tian suddenly launched his counterattack at that moment.
"Take out those cloned monsters of the Human Emperor?"
Indeed, that was the first thought that crossed Zhou Tian’s mind. However, after briefly entertaining that notion, Zhou quickly dismissed it from his heart.
It is indeed the most normal response to retaliate against an enemy’s attack immediately, but while Zhou Tian was reacting in such a manner, he had to consider one thing.
Not all enemies can be dealt with in such a manner. At the very least, the Human Emperor at present was not an enemy that Zhou Tian could easily repel using that method.
Since Zhou Tian also possessed the same ability, he was acutely aware that it would be impossible to repel the Human Emperor using the current method.
If Zhou Tian wanted to repel the Human Emperor, he could only do so by focusing on the Emperor’s true body. Attacking those cloned monsters was indeed something Zhou Tian’s forces could handle without his direct intervention, but the issue now was that if Zhou Tian ordered such a command, the end result would clearly not be what he hoped to see.
"So what if he takes down those cloned monsters of the Human Emperor?"
If Zhou Tian could defeat or even kill ordinary enemies, he could naturally be said to have eliminated the threat to himself. But this time, the challenge Zhou Tian faced was a large batch of cloned monsters, and even if he killed them, new ones would soon appear. As long as the Human Emperor was not destroyed, Zhou Tian feared that no matter how hard he tried, it would be impossible to completely eradicate those cloned monsters. freeweɓnovel.cøm
Because he knew that no matter how hard he strived, he could not achieve his goal in that respect, Zhou Tian very simply gave up that idea at that time.
However...
While it might be improbable to annihilate those cloned monsters, Zhou Tian certainly couldn’t stand by idly when they were plundering his territory.
After all, it was he who would suffer the losses from the enemy’s actions, and from any perspective, it seemed there was no reason for Zhou Tian not to counterattack!
Therefore...
Zhou Tian had to launch a counterattack. With the destruction of the cloned monsters being futile and no ability to kill the adversary’s real body, Zhou Tian ended up making a decision at that moment which was very dangerous for the enemy, yet highly advantageous for himself.
To attack the Human Emperor’s territory directly.
Talk was useless at this point; though Zhou Tian wanted to go back to support his own territory, not to mention that those Deities wouldn’t let him leave, even if the group of Deities was willing to let him go, any action taken by Zhou Tian at this moment would at best just drive away the cloned monsters of the Human Emperor. To really make the enemy pay the price, Zhou Tian would certainly need to use some other methods.
Thus, even though the situation was very difficult to handle, and even if Zhou Tian could have managed things under normal circumstances, given his current predicament where he was unable to disengage, he estimated that his Beastmen subordinates would probably also find it hard to handle the situation well.
Under those circumstances, Zhou Tian didn’t have many choices.
After much consideration, attacking the enemy’s territory seemed to be the best option. Wasn’t the enemy aiming to outright seize his territory?
Fine then!
Zhou Tian still had strong confidence in defending his own territory. He didn’t undervalue the enemy but estimated that if the Human Emperor intended to seize his territory, he would need to work hard for several months to succeed. Meanwhile, if Zhou Tian was to defend against the enemy’s attack while simultaneously launching an offensive against the enemy’s territory, he was eager to see what reaction the Human Emperor would have then.
In the end, Zhou Tian falling into a disadvantage was not because the Human Emperor was exceptionally powerful, but simply because Zhou Tian had offended too many forces, and at this point, a group of Deities had taken action to suppress him. He believed that if not for the Deities, it would not have been possible for him to be in such a disadvantageous position against the Human Emperor.
Now, since Zhou Tian could not extricate himself, he would have to use his own forces, which were clearly much stronger than the enemy’s, to exert pressure on the enemy’s forces.
The Human Emperor thinks he’s so formidable? Even if he sends out his cloned monsters, Zhou Tian could easily crush him with just the forces under his command. With both sides attacking each other’s territories, Zhou Tian was one hundred percent sure he could gain the upper hand in this battle.
Such confidence was based on solid reasoning. For instance, although the enemy’s high-end combat power seemed stronger at the moment, Zhou Tian possessed a large amount of Special Energy to replenish the consumption of his smaller forces. And as an NPC of the Alliance, Zhou Tian believed that the Human Emperor probably couldn’t kill too many players.
As such, the enemy could neither outmatch Zhou Tian in strength nor defeat him through attrition. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
Furthermore, besides having a superior foundation compared to the Human Emperor, Zhou Tian also possessed forces that the Emperor simply did not have. For example, the combat power represented by the goblins Zhou Tian had recruited early on was a power the Human Emperor could never possess, no matter what. (To be continued.
