Facing the Apocalypse with My Other Selves-Chapter 142 - 107: This Power Comes from the New World

Chapter 142: Chapter 107: This Power Comes from the New World

"I need to head back too," said interstellar world Shen Yu. "My civilization also needs to pick up the pace. If we can free up some more productive capacity, we’ll be able to support you all better. The Gray Mist is what we need the most."

interstellar world Shen Yu was right.

This wasn’t something that could be stated outright to the Goddess of Hope, but saving other worlds and acquiring Gray Mist benefited every Shen Yu.

If it weren’t for the previous technological support for the Magic Civilization, there could not have been this current power.

At the same time, there are still vast reserves of Gray Mist waiting for him on the battlefield of the Interstellar Civilization.

"Let’s all do our best." Martial Artist Shen Yu left those words behind, departing with several other versions of Shen Yu.

Shen Yu did not remain where he was, instead returning to the command center.

Upon seeing his arrival, the people in the command center once again shifted how they looked at Shen Yu.

If before, it was just respect—

Now, it had become awe.

Some overseas commanders looked at Shen Yu with an almost fanatical fervor in their eyes.

Such mighty power was enough to inspire genuine shock in anyone who witnessed it.

Not to mention, he had saved countless people.

Even though Shen Yu’s face was a touch pale now, it made no difference.

"This isn’t a method that can be used lightly." Shen Yu looked at the crowd, speaking slowly but offering some explanation. "It comes from a new world I’ve made contact with inside the Association."

New World?

Everyone was taken aback, then a look of delight appeared on each face.

A new world—an entirely new civilization!

No wonder, they had sensed that the extraordinary power Shen Yu used just now was different from Martial Arts.

"For now, it’s just contact and basic understanding. It just so happens their power can resolve the underwater creatures, so I used my mighty power to strengthen things ahead of schedule. I’ll give detailed explanations at the next meeting," Shen Yu briefly clarified, leaving enough for anticipation before asking about the real issue. "First, update me on the current battle situation."

"Yes, sir!"

The supreme commander of the current campaign was a general named Huang Renyi from the Eastern Country.

According to protocol, he wasn’t Shen Yu’s direct subordinate.

But now, he subconsciously snapped to attention, reporting in the manner reserved for a superior, giving a full account of battlefield situations all over the world.

Overall, the greatest pressure was indeed here in the Eastern Country.

Because the biggest monster was located here.

Some places had their defensive lines briefly breached by the enemy—that was where the second-largest monster appeared. However, that creature’s size and energy level were nowhere near as extreme as the one here. Thanks to trump-card weapons traded from the Interstellar Civilization, they managed to kill it and retake the defenses.

But even in just that brief period, casualties exceeded two million.

The cruelty of apocalypse warfare was obvious.

And this was a major victory.

If a defeat had occurred in a battle like this— 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

It wouldn’t have been just a few million, but tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions dead or wounded.

"Is the firepower inadequate?" Shen Yu frowned deeply upon hearing this.

He understood weapons and production were limited by time, but if defeat came from logistical problems, it would be a tragedy for countless people.

"We’re already fully mobilized." Huang Renyi said grimly, "Just ten minutes ago the country made an announcement, officially launching our Martial Arts expansion plan, prioritizing those with outstanding contributions in military and production mobilization. The people are incredibly enthusiastic—applications for factories are soaring. Still, if we got more support from the Interstellar Civilization, it would be even better."

"It shouldn’t be a long wait," Shen Yu replied, his expression easing somewhat. "The Interstellar Civilization is mainly fighting fiercely themselves; their production lines are equally stretched, though their power is formidable. Like that New World I mentioned, while they haven’t prepared to form formal mutual aid with us, they’re ready to join forces with the Interstellar Civilization. Once things ease up, trade negotiations should become more favorable."

Huang Renyi and the other commanders were both pleased and a little envious after hearing this.

Indeed, even in the Multi-Dimensional Apocalypse Civilization Mutual Aid Association, the stronger the civilization, the more sought after they become.

Even if everyone is an Apocalypse Civilization, a powerful world tossing a little support or making deals brings immense benefit to the weaker ones.

Still—they can’t remain weak forever.

This campaign had exposed some shortcomings in Human Civilization, and now they had to do everything possible to overcome them.

After gathering more details on battle conditions worldwide, the Global Meteorite Crisis Response Headquarters sent Shen Yu an inquiry.

Asking if he would hold a press conference to further inspire the people.

Shen Yu’s display, as if touched by a Divine Spirit, had set off a tremendous sensation throughout Human Civilization. Online and in the real world, voices grew ever louder; countless people were calling for him.

Shen Yu understood those feelings.

After a moment of thought, he agreed.

Not merely for the people of the world, but even more so for the warriors at the front.

They had contributed immense amounts of Gray Mist in this campaign.

Even more than Shen Yu’s final strike.

After all, Shen Yu’s strike only wiped out the monsters here in the Eastern Country—the chief achievement was eliminating that most terrifying sea monster.

But with these meteorite monsters, the greatest threat was their sheer numbers.

This had truly reached a scale where the quantity of monsters alone could destroy Human Civilization.

Moreover, the power used by human warriors to fight monsters came basically from Shen Yu.

So, the resulting Gray Mist gained from this causality had risen sharply.

Even after distributing a portion, the amount reaching Shen Yu and the Association remained staggering.

At this moment alone, it totaled nine hundred million.

In every way, encouragement was deserved.

So Shen Yu quickly convened a press conference, and this time, the number of attendees was staggering.

Even the front-line warriors joined during their rest breaks.

The barrage of comments was so overwhelming that their content couldn’t even be seen, testament to everyone’s excitement.

But Shen Yu’s expression remained calm.

"First of all, thank you all for your passion."

Shen Yu said calmly, "But I’m not an omnipotent Divine Spirit, and there exists no Divine Spirit in this world who can save everything. We should be especially grateful to the brave warriors in every country and region standing firm on the front lines. They are the true heroes who’ve slain most of the monsters. All of us are creating our own legends as we struggle against the apocalypse."

Secondly, about the thing everyone cares about most—the power I just displayed, what is it?

Many have already guessed: yes, it comes from a new world within the Multi-Dimensional Apocalypse Civilization Association—a world with Magic.

However, contact with that world is only just beginning, so there’s not much more to say yet.

I am doing all I can within my own responsibilities.

As for the magic I just worked, actually it consisted of two parts. First, expelling all the monsters’ special energies. Second, transforming that energy into a type beneficial to all of us and to all life on the planet.

So, our world, including ourselves, is seizing opportunities in the fight against doomsday—and becoming stronger!

Finally, I hope everyone remembers those warriors who sacrificed themselves, remembers what every single person contributed. That is the only way we triumph over the apocalypse.

There’s no other way!"

Shen Yu’s press conference continued his consistent style.

Succinct and direct.

Hardly any unnecessary words—after answering the most pressing questions, all that remained was motivation and encouragement.

That was the ultimate goal.

And the effect was remarkable—causing a response second to none.
