"This? Can I do it?" Ye Chen asked without confidence. He had only just entered the seventh rank. Neither the quality nor the quantity of his followers could compare with that of a veteran lord like Grandpa Jian. It would be extremely difficult to guard such a large star field, and the result of failure would be countless lives paying the price for his mistake.
"Believe in yourself, you can definitely do it!" Grandpa Jane patted his shoulder to comfort him. "I know that your territory has not been developed for long and you don't have many followers, but you are not alone. You have a lot of lords with you. What you need to do is to tackle the challenges and deal with those high-level dark creatures that have rushed out."
Guarding the entire star field requires more than a hundred billion, let alone a trillion or even hundreds of billions of clans; it relies more on the concerted efforts of the many lords.
The low- to mid-level dark creatures can be dealt with by more low- to mid-level lords. What Ye Chen really needs to face are the high-level dark creatures that are charging in, that is, the dark gods. There can't be too many of these dark gods, and the power on his Primordial Star is enough to deal with them.
"Alright! I swear I will defend this place to the death!" Having figured out the key point, Ye Chen nodded solemnly in agreement.
"Good!" Grandpa Jian laughed heartily, patted him on the shoulder again, gave him a few more instructions, and then went back to prepare for his own expedition.
There is an eighth-level True God guarding the source of darkness. Although the other party has not yet been able to come out of it, who knows if it might reach out a claw from inside if it is pushed to the limit? So he has to be well prepared.
As Grandpa Jane's vast planetary territory slowly ascended into the sky, Ye Chen didn't even have time to see him off. When it came to him requesting assistance on various war-related matters, all he felt was immense pressure.
"Ye Xi, spread the word: each tribe should be organized into regiments of 10,000 men and armies of 100,000 men, with centurions and chiliarchs under each regiment. Five men should form a squad, and twenty men a battalion. Everyone should be on standby at all times and allocate military forces according to the corresponding requests for assistance!" Ye Chen gave the order with a slight headache as he looked at the pile of requests for assistance sent to his communicator.
This was the communication network that Grandpa Jane handed over to him, while leaving Jane's mother and father to assist him. From the moment he officially took over the communication network, the messages and requests for help within it never stopped, leaving him no time to even react or respond.
"Yes, sir!" Ye Xi nodded, and soon all the races received Ye Chen's instructions, which became the way to form an army throughout the entire prehistoric planet.
"Find some clever and agile spirits and have them categorize and evaluate this information to see which ones require our intervention, how many people are needed, and the strength of the opposing side," Ye Chen continued, while simultaneously activating the Time Cave, just like Grandpa Jian.
A day is equivalent to a year. The speed at which messages are refreshed has slowed down, and there might not even be a single message coming in a day. He finally has enough time to think about and process the information transmitted from all parties.
The entire primordial planet began to operate at a rapid pace. The able-bodied tribes were organized into armies, ready to go to war at any time, while the subjects and lower-ranking races with low combat power were stockpiling supplies. With hundreds of billions of troops going to war, the amount of food consumed every day was enormous, and this was something that would not be changed by supernatural power.
Fortunately, this isn't a war fought by ordinary people, where a large army is needed to transport supplies. We can simply find a space to store our equipment and carry it with us.
Meanwhile, under Ye Xi's command, a group of small spirits, known as the Spirit Internal Affairs Division, appeared beside the Baixiantai. Their main responsibility was to analyze and process the various information received by Ye Chen's communicator, then distribute it, and after review, arrange for the army to set off.
Don't be fooled by the fact that these spirits are not very intelligent and are slow to react. That's because their intelligence is newly formed and they are as ignorant as a blank sheet of paper. But as long as they are given enough training, these spirits can quickly get things done and without any mistakes.
It's important to know that even ordinary animals can perform some basic repetitive tasks after training, let alone spirits and monsters that have become sentient. They possess intelligence that is no less than that of humans, and they are even more focused than humans.
However, it is not easy for spirits to cultivate and their growth is slow. If they want to grow into truly powerful beings, they need to go through a long period of time and hardships. Therefore, the spirits on the Primordial Star are not strong at this time and cannot be used for war. However, they are enough to process strategic information and data.
"Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor! A dark deity has appeared here, requesting assistance!" The radish spirit, who had finally been enlightened, rushed over in a panic and shouted to Ye Chen.
Although it is not very strong, only at the fourth level, it is the most clever and intelligent among these spirits. Therefore, it manages the work of many spirits and can be considered a big shot among them.
"Do you know what race they are? How strong are they? How many dark creatures are there?" Ye Chen asked.
"The most common Skeleton King is only at the early stage of the seventh rank, but it is accompanied by many undead creatures, whose strength is mainly around the fourth rank. However, the number of them is very large, and there are quite a few fifth and sixth rank creatures among them!" Carrot Spirit replied quickly. This information was compiled as thoroughly as possible before being reported to Ye Chen.
"Send Taishan to the early stage of the seventh rank. It'll be a good opportunity for him to practice. Bring the Fire Crow and the Phoenix Clan along, and that should be enough!" Ye Chen thought for a moment and said. This level of opponent is perfect for Taishan.
"Okay!" Radish Spirit nodded and was about to go down to inform them when Ye Chen stopped her.
"Have someone do some more statistics. How many seventh-tier clans do the other lords have? How many surplus troops do they have? Gather the information and coordinate them later. Otherwise, relying solely on our Primordial Star, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for long!" Ye Chen said.
There are only so many demigods on the Primordial Star. He can't possibly save them all on his own. Even Ye Xi has already been sent out. Mount Tai is the last high-level unit that can be mobilized at will in the territory. If anyone else comes, we'll really have to pull Houtu out of the Samsara Palace.
"Okay! I'll go arrange it right away!" the Radish Spirit said, and after confirming that Ye Chen had nothing else to do, he quickly ran downstairs.
Spirits are very easy to manage. Compared to demons, their thinking is much purer, and they are more focused on their work. Whoever treats them well, they will do their best for that person without the slightest complaint.
And now, it's clear that Ye Chen is the one for whom they are willing to give everything!
