“According to the information given by Lao Pan,” Lena continued, “they strongly suspect that some force secretly dropped unknown types of nuclear explosives into the interior of every ship in the Taotie fleet, and then used some unknown method to control the simultaneous detonation of these explosives.”
Alternatively, they could locate all warships and simultaneously drop nuclear explosives through wormholes, then detonate them quickly. The likelihood of either of these options is higher or lower, but in any case, the number of forces in the universe capable of perfectly executing either of these options is very small, and it wouldn't be so easy to remain undetected.
After careful screening of various factors, apart from the Super God Academy relying on the power of other branches, or our Lieyang, it is the Angel Civilization and the Demon Civilization that we are not very familiar with.
However, the demon civilization is said to have been reduced to a broken spine, so it may not dare to appear, nor may it have enough power, let alone any reason to attack the Taotie Legion.
The angel civilization has always been open and proud, or at least self-proclaimed so. They call themselves the kings of the universe, so there's no reason for them to act in secret. Even if they were to fight the Taotie, they would do it in a grand and spectacular way.
So...that makes it even harder to guess.
Lena analyzed the situation again, then sighed deeply, feeling utterly confused.
"So what will happen next?" Wang Ji thought for a moment and asked curiously, "Will the Taotie Legion never come again?"
“Next,” Lena touched her pale forehead, took a deep breath in a daze to clear her head, and then said, “things will get even more complicated from here on out… The key now is what the Styx Galaxy will think, including both the Taotie civilization and Death God Karl.”
Wang Ji asked with some concern, "What do you mean?"
“One thing is certain: no matter which force did this, the biggest beneficiary will ultimately be the Earth civilization, which was originally going to be invaded by the Styx civilization.” Lena looked at Wang Ji and analyzed for him: “So, no matter who you look at it from, the purpose of the force that destroyed the Taotie fleet is probably ninety percent to help the Earth civilization.”
The Styx civilization then needed to consider its next course of action.
If it can be determined which side attacked the Taotie civilization, then the Death Song Academy of the Styx Galaxy will naturally negotiate with that force to ensure that the Taotie Legion's next advance into the Milky Way will not be thwarted again.
Moreover, they will no longer be complacent and will certainly send gods to protect the Taotie's actions.
"No..." At this moment, Zizai couldn't help but speak up: "The Taotie Legion was blown up like that, and the Taotie King was killed. How dare they still take action? How dare they come back?"
Wang Ji's eyelids suddenly twitched, and he couldn't help but cough lightly.
“Of course they’ll come again,” Lena said, looking at Zizai and nodding matter-of-factly. “They’re not weaklings. Although this move will definitely terrify them, they are still beasts, invaders, bandits, and they worship Death God Karl. Even if the Taotie King is dead… Wait, that’s not right. When did I say the Taotie King was dead? Zizai, why did you just say the Taotie King was dead?”
Wang Ji: "..."
He glanced at Zizai silently, a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
The little body stiffened, as if bewildered, and then Zizai looked at the strange-looking Lena, and the next second: "Huh? Didn't you say that, Mom? You said... Oh! I remember now, you said that the Taotie's main ship was destroyed, but you didn't say that the Taotie King was killed... Oh~ I just assumed."
Her little red lips formed a circle, as if she had just realized something.
“Oh,” Lena thought for a moment, then nodded in realization, “I see.”
That makes perfect sense.
After saying that, she didn't think much of it and continued to look back at Wang Ji, saying, "The Taotie shouldn't be scared off by this attack. I heard that at least half of their forces remain, and they are expected to be able to raise a considerable fleet. Although they may not have many reserves, after some time to prepare, the Taotie will most likely launch another invasion of the Milky Way."
Wang Ji's eyes flickered slightly, and he narrowed them a little.
Lena was not surprised to see this and continued, "If this force is found out, the Taotie Legion may continue to advance into the Milky Way under the protection of the Death Song Academy."
If they fail to find anything, the Taotie will still advance into the Milky Way under the protection of the Death Song Academy. In that case, it depends on whether this force will make a move again. If they do, things will become unpredictable.
For example, if it were the actions of angels, I wouldn't be able to guess why they were doing it or where they would lead things.
If this force stops intervening... then my previous statement that it couldn't be the Super God Academy might no longer hold water. It could be anyone, but there is a mysterious force protecting Earth, at least at a higher level. Moreover, their actions demonstrate that they have the power to destroy the Taotie civilization at any time.
It's possible that they don't want to face Death Song Academy, either out of fear or because they're embarrassed to show themselves since they've broken the rules.
But since they've taken action, even if they might be wary of Death God Karl, it must be to express something else: their regard for Earth and to demonstrate their power.
Lena shook her head as she spoke: "The reason why this force is difficult to investigate is because, in principle, no matter which civilization I mentioned is involved, they should not take this kind of action."
This is neither beneficial, nor does it offend anyone; it's bullying the weak, and it breaks the rules... It's very strange.
Wang Ji fell into deep thought, and after a long while, he said thoughtfully, "So that means the Taotie Legion will come again, but they will come with fear and trepidation, yet they will be protected by the gods of the Death Song Academy... Will the gods of the Death Song Academy intervene?"
