Gacha Sovereign

Chapter 807 - Brainstorming

"The plan is like this…" Shakdi glanced at the gates first before starting his explanation. "Since you said there is a connection between the portal and the monsters inside, I can safely assume there is a high chance for them to be connected.

"Do you mean the monsters inside are used as their connector or something?"

"Something like that." Shakdi nodded. "However, there is another thing that we can take advantage of."

"And that is?"

"The fact that there is a connection between them, I think we can seal the portal if we kill the monsters inside."

"Then let's go." Alex took out his weapons.

"Wait, wait! There is a problem."

"What is it?"

"The tower can't handle that many visitors, so only a few can go inside. However, they need to fight against fifty thousand monsters at the same time, making it almost impossible. Although you can go from one portal to another, the other monsters will notice and try to break through these gates. At that time, you can consider this tower is gone, and the calamity will come to this world."

"Hmm…" Alex furrowed his eyebrows. "It seems there is another problem that we need to solve."

"Yes. The fact that the parents can command the monsters, they are most likely to sacrifice their own kin to destroy these gates."

"But you said we couldn't bring that many people?"

"Yes. I said that. And I know the fact that we can't fight those monsters while protecting the gate with that number. That's why I have another plan, but it's too absurd."

"Elaborate."

"I want to bring more people inside the tower," Shakdi said with a serious expression.

"Are you insane? If that is your plan, you are going to ruin this tower." One of the Gods shouted after hearing his idea. Even the others were also surprised, never expecting Shakdi to think of such a plan.

"That's right. Shakdi, you should think about it more." Another God furrowed his eyebrows.

"What happens if you bring more people?" Alex glanced at them.

"There is only one way to bring more people. We need to open the seal of this tower."

Alex's face turned grim. "Ho?!"

"What?!" This time, the princes and the princess were the ones to be surprised. They had been protecting this tower for a long long time. And if such a case happened, everything they did would be pointless.

However, Shakdi suddenly raised his hand, stopping all of them from talking. Everyone was confused by his action, but they realized the moment they gazed upon Alex.

Alex seemed to be in deep thought, calculating the plan in his mind. After two minutes, he looked at Shakdi with an amused expression. "This plan is crazy, but at the same time, it's interesting."

"What?!" Everyone dropped their jaw to the ground, including Shakdi. He had expected Alex to reject it, but it seemed he had seen the essence of this plan.

"From what I understand, if we stop the Tower from fighting back the portal, we should be able to bring more people inside. However, there are a few fatal flaws in this. First, the monsters on the surface will notice this plan because they can track the energy of these few beasts. In other words, we can expect a reinforcement of a few hundred thousand to a million monsters swarming this place.

"In case we can't defend them, the monsters will destroy this tower, and the portal won't be able to be closed again.

"Second, we need to deal with human resources. How many people do we bring inside, and how many people do we bring to defend outside? Seeing how it will be rampaged by monsters, there is a huge chance that the blood will flow like a river outside of this tower.

"Besides, we also need to kill the remaining seven parent monsters within a short period of time because it's the only way to close the portal with the tower's power. And the moment it's closed, it will be eternal as long as the tower is here.

"You can say it's a gamble. If you lose, you lose everything. If you win, this world will be saved. That's why I said this plan is crazy but interesting at the same time." Alex finished his explanation.

Shakdi nodded in agreement.

"This is the only way unless you have so many geniuses that can protect the portal from thousands of monsters despite being outnumbered up to five hundred times."

Alex thought for a moment and looked at the Gods and Goddesses. "What do you think of this plan?"

They exchanged looks and shook their heads. "As much as we want to say something, this might be our last option. The truth is… We would like to hear your opinion regarding this matter."

"My opinion?" Alex paused for a moment. "For me, I can simply rush to God Rank, but it also means I need to leave my friends here. And I think it will only be a matter of time before this world gets destroyed. I am not someone who will let my friends die, so I will surely help to fix this."

"Then, assuming we are choosing this option, what do you think we need to prepare?" Shakdi nodded while looking at Alex.

"Rather than asking me this question, it's better for you to answer this first. How long do you think we need to prepare, and what will happen within that time?" Alex shrugged.

"Fair enough." Shakdi paused and thought. "Three years. If I need to calculate the number of enemies, morale, and supply, three years is the maximum capacity. Within that time, humans won't be able to stop their advance because there are too many monsters filling this world.

"The monsters will also flock to this place the moment we open the arrays. Of course, the majority of them will come to this place instead of the surface. That's why we need many preparations to protect the tower before we let the monsters enter and fix this mess."

"Three years huh…" Alex fell into deep thought. "Within that time, the people on the surface need to hold on. I am afraid that even with the help of all influences, we won't be able to hold on. Should I get the alliances to move those people from the Northern and Sacred Continents as well?

"I don't think the war will accommodate people below Martial Kings, so I think only these two should participate. It's hard but feasible if it's only three years. The allowed limit will be two million monsters…" Alex seemed to be calculating everything in their plan.

The rest stayed silent, afraid to break his concentration if they made a sound.

It continued for a few minutes before Alex suddenly said. "I think our success is pretty big, depending on how much they are willing to unite."

"Would you share this idea of yours? If needed, I can do whatever you want as long as we can solve the problem." Shakdi carefully looked at Alex.

"First of all. The surface will be attacked by monsters for three years. This is something big that requires all experts around the corner." Alex mentioned the first problem while adding another thing in his head. 'Well, this is also an exp farm for me. I might even be able to increase their levels to either 9-Star Martial Saint or 10-Star Martial Saint within these three years.'

"Listening to your tone, I believe I have a role here, right?"

"Exactly so." Alex slyly smiled. Since the latter already told him to use him as much as he wanted, he wouldn't hold back anymore. "I will be bringing the leaders of all influences to this place and ask you to convince them to participate in this war. As for those people from the Northern Continent or Sacred Continent, they are easy to convince anyway, so I won't say much regarding this matter."

"I understand. I will surely convince them, especially with my identity as a God Rank Expert. Besides, most of the leaders should have met us in the past since they also joined the ritual. My word should influence them." Shakdi nodded.

"In the meantime, I want the place around the pillar to become a fortress that can hold a million monsters for one week." Alex glanced at the three princes and one princess.

They suddenly became tense as they gradually nodded their heads.

"I will certainly convince my father… I mean, the king of my kingdom to participate in this. I can assure you that we will bring all humans around the area to construct a fortress and a great wall to hold those monsters." The second prince said.

"That's right. I will convince mine as well. I believe if the four kingdoms unite, we can create such a thing. We can simply ask for free labor by making free of tax for a few years." The princess nodded in agreement.

"Fair enough. According to the legend, this tower is the one protecting us, including all Elders here. That's why I swear upon my name that I shall complete this task."

"Yes. This is the time for the four kingdoms to work together."

They immediately clasped their hands politely, knowing that this was the turning point.

"Thank you, Child." Shakdi smiled before giving them two items. One was a token, while the second one was an item customized to them. "Take these two items with you. The first one is the token to convince your family while the other one is a reward for each of you."

"Ah! This…" They were overwhelmed by this. They only thought about survival earlier, so they never expected Shakdi to give them something. With this, they would be even more pumped up to do their job.

Alex ignored them and continued. "Three years later. I will bring a team of elites from the surface to this place. Considering they are going to concentrate their forces here, I think we can make a hole to proceed."

"In that case, we can deactivate the tower, so all of you can go in."

Alex thought for a moment. Although they lost two influences, with Alex's Spirit Nest and the new sect, Freedom Sect, there should be seven influences there. He looked at the seven gates and nodded. "Since I have cleared the Space Gate, there are only seven more, which is equal to the seven influences on the surface."

"You want them for each gate?"

"Yeah. I will discuss it later with them. In any case, since the four kingdoms will know more about the fortress that they will construct after this, I would like to ask them to use all their power to hold on.

"Seeing the enemies' power, I believe they will send more than ten 10-Star Martial Saint monsters, so we need to fend them off here. In other words, all 10-Star Martial Saints will be fighting the monsters here while only those who are 5-Star Martial Saints or lower go inside this tower." Alex let out a long sigh.

Shakdi could understand why he wanted only those 5-Star or lower could go inside. At first, they thought they could bring them in, including their 10-Star Martial Saint. However, it was too reckless because they were fighting against time.

If the monsters know about their arrival, the parent monster will likely hide. In that case, finding them will become very hard. And the fact they are going to kill them at the same time, it becomes far harder.

That was why Alex separated them that way. There were only a few 3-Star Martial Saints monsters inside anyway. And their capability wasn't as powerful as a Space Element monster. Hence, the plan is doable.

"How many do you plan to bring?"

"Two thousand elites from each influence. Half of them will remain outside while half will go inside. They should be able to protect the gate from fifty thousand monsters inside… Considering there are seven gates, each gate only has seven thousand monsters.

"I believe we have enough strength to protect the gate." Alex nodded with a serious expression.
