Even if the living beings’ response surprised Zhou Tian, if Zhou Tian wished, he could still devise a method to revert the situation to its original state. And as long as he stuck to his original plan, he could be sure that even if he didn’t achieve his goal, he could still inflict certain casualties on the enemy Large Army without any Problem. freewebnøvel.coɱ
Making those living beings act according to his plan seemed difficult, but if Zhou Tian really wanted to do so, it wouldn’t actually be a difficult task.
Firstly, those living beings were unaware of Zhou Tian’s plan, so they would not take any precautions against it. Although the large number of Troops they had sent hindered Zhou Tian from implementing his own plans, if he could neutralize that influence, then dealing with those living beings would become a simple matter.
Secondly, the main reason these living beings had sent so many Troops to trouble Zhou Tian was that they believed the Position they currently saw was Zhou Tian’s true Hiding Place. It was only because of that belief that the living beings had made such a commotion.
Now, Zhou Tian merely needed to use his Actions to remind those living beings that the current location might not be his real Hiding Place. He estimated that this realization would likely prevent them from keeping all their Troops there.
Was it difficult to achieve such an effect? At this moment, Zhou Tian only needed to show his face somewhere else, even if it was just a Clone Body disappearing immediately after appearing. He reckoned that this would shake the living beings’ Confidence, and without certainty that Zhou Tian was definitely inside that Underground Cave, they would likely withdraw some of their Troops, willing or not, to prevent Zhou Tian from fleeing.
Once the enemy’s Troops decreased, Zhou Tian could then proceed with his plan, and if everything went smoothly, it wouldn’t be difficult for him to achieve his goal.
Thinking this, Zhou Tian wasted no time and sprang into Action.
With his Abilities, creating a Clone Body wasn’t difficult. Thus, as soon as Zhou Tian had the thought, a clone with modest Strength appeared out of thin air nearby. Upon receiving Zhou Tian’s orders, it quickly rushed away into the distance.
Just as Zhou Tian’s Clone Body started to head out, the living beings nearby had already begun to take Action against Zhou Tian.
The living beings had refrained from acting because previously they had not had enough Troops to guarantee Zhou Tian’s capture. Moreover, they were unsure if the Underground Cave had other Entrance Passages and dared not take Action for fear of letting Zhou Tian escape.
However, now that the living beings’ Large Army had arrived, these Problems were no longer concerns. Given the living beings’ number and various Abilities, their thorough search soon revealed several entrances to the Underground Cave chosen by Zhou Tian.
That discovery even included the entrances that Zhou Tian had sealed with his Abilities; none were missed by the living beings’ search.
The fact that they had found several entrances sealed by Zhou Tian’s own Abilities further bolstered the living beings’ confidence in their hypothesis.
If Zhou Tian had merely passed by, he wouldn’t have bothered to seal those passages. Hence, his Actions implied that he had not just passed by the Underground Cave.
The likelihood of an Ambush was high, but clearly, the living beings had not considered this, partly because they rarely encountered such scenarios and partly because they believed their own Strength was far superior to Zhou Tian’s. Perhaps even if they did have such thoughts, they did not think Zhou Tian’s Ambush could pose any Threat.
As a result, once they confirmed that there were only those exits from the Underground Cave, the living beings, following the commander’s order, immediately charged into the entrances without a second thought.
Then, soon after the living beings entered the cave, sounds of Combat echoed through the tunnels of the Entrance Passages.
Although Zhou Tian had planned to Ambush the living beings inside the cave, this did not mean he would not send any Strength into the cave. After all, the living beings were not Stupid; if they charged into the cave and found nothing, Zhou Tian would likely lose his Opportunity for an Ambush.
Therefore, even though Zhou Tian wouldn’t enter the cave himself, he dispatched several of his Clone Bodies inside. It was the collision of Zhou Tian’s clones and the living beings that led to the Combat at that moment.
