Chapter 827: Chapter 72 Rising Again
“Chivalry” itself is rely the thod of response with the least destructive impact on society after many powers of modern society have been concentrated and usurped. It does not fully align with the era after the “sacrifice” of the Martial Ancestor.
The Fourth Martial God infused new content into this banner, transforming “chivalry” to better adapt to the era after Yawgmoth disintegrated human civilization with extraordinary power, without violating Xiang Shan’s original principles.
From the “only defeat” to the birth of the Fourth Martial God, it was the process of the decline of chivalry. And from the birth of the Fourth Martial God to the defeat of the Seventh Martial God, it was a continuous victory for chivalry, a transition for heroes from defense to offense.
These victories reforged the current chivalric forces.
But in the end, it was still inadequate.
Sotis, “strength” does not signify “rightness,” and “weakness” does not an “wrongness.” “Strength” does not signify “virtue,” and “weakness” does not an “loss of the path.”
Many factors determine whether a group is strong or weak, including past histories and recent events.
So already vanished weak groups might have stood on the side of justice and freedom. However, history and those around them did not afford them a chance to prove themselves.
re adulation of “strength as justice” is akin to affirming “wealth as diligence.”
The principles upheld by the vanquished are not necessarily wrong.
But unfortunately, if a person is defeated, the “principles” they believed in are inherently laden with original sin.
This, in truth, is quite unreasonable.
But this is how the world works.
Human society operates according to such rules.
“At this point, there’s no point in complaining now,” Xiang Shan said, standing up again.
He was still clad in the advanced camouflage equipnt stolen from Pine Eagle City, without worry of exposure…
However, it was sowhat redundant.
A few months ago, he had just destroyed the satellite network of the entire planet, causing most satellites to collide and lose function under his control. The Moon hastily launched a batch of satellites.
But now, the governnt has lost the space-based weapon network, making it more difficult to defend against ground-launched weapons.
The heroes are collecting resources in full swing, accelerating the manufacture of weapons capable of hitting satellites, striving to delay the reconstruction process of the satellite network.
Almost daily, satellites are being shot down. Every night, the night sky flickers slightly.
Capitalizing on this opportunity, heroes who had been lurking underground for years have erged one after another.
At the Bering Strait, Northern Heroes even clashed fiercely with Protectors using sect submarines. Although the Northern Heroes suffered losses, they severely damaged the Protectors stationed at the Bering Strait, forcing nearby officers to lead troops to reinforce.
This process exposed several weakly defended areas.
The heroes naturally took action without reservation.
While they did not dare claim to occupy cities, the remaining grassroots officers often suffered heavy losses, and large quantities of materials from arsenals were looted.
So were modified to beco part of assaults on the sky.
So were fired at powerful armies.
There are even records of high-ranking officers being slain.
Regrettably, with the satellite network’s destruction, Earth was divided into countless intranets. Communication beca a challenge, making all intelligence unclear and hard to ensure tiliness.
Back in the Martial Ancestor’s era, heroes knew how to strike at the critical points of large organizations. “Cutting network cables” was sothing they were well-versed in. The governnt could lay very few wired networks, and the maintenance costs were exorbitant.
Moreover, large-scale troop movents rely more heavily on communications than smaller operations.
More crucially, now King Aqini can only control the small area where the signal from the Sky Star Fleet can be directly transmitted, and signal attenuation severely affects inner strength.
The Earth’s heroes have already beco active.
It’s said that over in Africa, Bai Man is very active, having achieved several victories and killed many high-level houndhawks. The heroes are pooling resources, gradually approaching the space elevator.
Seizing the space elevator at this point holds significant importance for the heroes.
Similar occurrences are happening all over this planet.
During the New Continent’s relocation process, Xiang Shan evaded and maneuvered, successfully eliminating several troops and killing one One Layer Heaven Martial Artist.
This ti, Hiroshi Matsushima cobbled together a First Layer Heaven Cyborg, and others obtained materials.
Unfortunately, once news of Xiang Shan’s appearance spread, King Aqini imdiately launched a barrage from outside the atmosphere, simultaneously broadcasting to all nearby troops to standby with a large number of experts approaching.
If a siege was established, it’s likely he himself would land on the ground to join the battle.
At that ti, Xiang Shan did not have the conditions to confront so many troops directly, so he chose to retreat.
Under the camouflage equipnt, he remained the prosthetic body he had before entering Paradox City.
The Ninth Martial God used the remaining Twelve Zodiacs craft to assault King Aqini’s main force, while “Shooter” retreated ahead of ti. “Shooter” took advantage of the storm, subrged and relocated, reaching a pre-arranged location in advance.
The water will beco the best cover.
Inside “Shooter” was a Pseudo-personality Mask of the Ninth Martial God AI. Except for inner strength defenses being terrible, everything else was top-tier, so there was no need to worry. However, the Twelve Zodiacs were specialized for the solar atmosphere environnt, and in Earth’s atmosphere, their combat power could not match the prosthetic bodies specially made for terrestrial planet surfaces of the sa technology level and cost.
The highest-reflective coating on “Shooter” was a burdenso in this place. Based on the principle of “make the best use of resources,” Xiang Shan chose to temporarily hide “Shooter,” avoiding wasting the best resources on Earth’s surface while using this self to search for resources for transformation to remodel “Shooter” into a form that could maximize combat capability within Earth’s gravity well.
Of course, Xiang Shan’s appearance has another aning.
The Sky Star Fleet advancing to this position indeed greatly restricted Xiang Shan’s actions. Absent King Aqini’s risky actions, he could have precisely beheaded One Layer Heaven officers and Protector Troops’ command systems, largely diminishing the army’s combat capacity.
But Xiang Shan also trapped the Protectors’ most elite Deep Space Fleet within the planet’s gravity well.
It’s said that asteroid belt heroes have recently undertaken significant actions. This information was not from extraterrestrial signals but from Earth heroes’ optical equipnt observing the asteroid belt and Jupiter Domain’s flashes.
That’s the most suitable battlefield for the Sky Star Fleet.
Xiang Shan risked appearing several tis to attack Protector Armies, aiming precisely at this point.
He wanted that Hartman cur to hesitate to leave.
While simultaneously collecting so resources suitable for retrofitting use.
But now…
He guessed Hartman wouldn’t dare leave until soone else took over,
therefore, he had to go obtain his “new powers.”
