Chapter 1027, The True Form of the Evil God

When fighting the Bonebreaker King, the Alliance couldn't find any top-tier fighters who could compare to him.

It's ok.

Let's overwhelm them with numbers! A just brawl!
There's no point in piling on ordinary soldiers, or even ordinary Space Marines. Let's just bring over Martins and Roberts!

With three warriors at the level of the Sons of God, would they be able to fight against Bassol?

Let's also gather the chosen champions together.

After careful consideration, Gu Hang decided to abandon the idea.

The main reason is that there wasn't enough time.

Gu Hang had already been secretly working hard.

Leon has been able to hold on until now, and has been able to escape one deadly threat after another in many critical moments with a stroke of luck, all thanks to Gu Hang's help.

However, even with his help, could Leon persevere?

No way.

Bassor can allow Leon to break through to his side time and time again; there are many ways to resist or even drive Leon away. However, if Leon makes even one mistake, the consequences will be catastrophic. Even if he isn't killed immediately, any injury or setback caused by Bassor's attacks will leave Leon overwhelmed by the continuous onslaught, trapping him in an irreversible vicious cycle, ultimately leading to his defeat.

However, it will take time for Gu Hang to gather experts from all sides.

Even though the Alliance now has control of the Veil Spirit Gate and can move troops and personnel at lightning speed, the nearest Veil Spirit Gate is still located several star sectors away.

Even if someone were to immediately pass through the veiled spiritual gate and then board the fastest ship to rush to the battlefield, the time required would still be measured in months.

To achieve a just and decisive attack, we must exert our strength to protect Leon, ensure his successful retreat, and force him to abandon this round of attacks on Rain Star and retreat to the Giant Rock for defense.

It's hard.

Right now, Leon and Bassor are locked in a life-or-death duel, practically face-to-face. How easy would it be to drag Leon out of the battlefield alive?
Moreover, even if this difficulty is resolved, we still need to hold on for at least another month or two.

During this period, even Gu Hang could not predict how the situation on the battlefield would evolve.

What if Bassor used this time to personally lead his troops to storm the Great Rock?
At that point, there will be no way to retreat.

……

Since a group fight wasn't feasible, Gu Hang had another idea.

This is also something he has used when facing some powerful enemies—an avatar.

In Comoros, during the final desperate battle against the 'Black Witch King,' Gu Hang's projected avatar used its immense power to instantly kill the Black Witch King.

However, it doesn't seem to work here either.

While the Black Witch King is powerful, his strength is limited; he certainly doesn't reach the level of a Son of God, let alone Bassol, who manifested this form on his home turf, 'Knight Star,' empowered by a divine artifact.

This avatar, even if it's hard to say it possesses all the power of Bassol's original body, is definitely not something the Black Witch King can easily challenge.

However, Gu Hang's ability to immerse himself in the avatar of the real universe is simply not up to that level.

The power of Bassol's avatar on 'Knight Star' was immense. This guy's mastery of the artifact was too high, and he had already completed most of the reforging work. Using it as an anchor point, the power that the avatar could display far exceeded the strength of a normal avatar.

Even Gu Hang can't compare.

He didn't believe that the strongest avatar he could create could stand against Bassor on Knight Star. Even a two-on-one fight with Leon wouldn't be enough.

However, sacrificing the avatar to cover the retreat might allow Leon to escape alive.

But it doesn't really make much sense.

While this might buy time to gather top experts after ensuring Leon's escape, it wouldn't solve the problem of time needed to gather them. Bassol could very well use this time to launch a direct attack on the Stone Monastery.

This can only be a last resort.

Are there any other options?
In fact, there are still some.

If Gu Hang doesn't have a particularly good way to deal with Bassor's avatar in the real universe, he can choose another battlefield—

subspace.

If you can't cause trouble for Bassor's incarnation, can't you at least go after him in person?

In the past, it would have been quite difficult to find.

After all, the warp is far more vast than the real universe, and a lesser evil god like Bassor hides his lair, a place similar to a divine kingdom, very well.

After all, in the subspace, there are four—no, five—great beings that no one else can contend with except for themselves, who can check and balance each other.

Gu Hang at least had one of them as a backer. In addition, he also had a vast alliance base as a backup.

But by comparison, Bassor's situation is definitely worse; no one will be his support.

Furthermore, because he harbors even greater ambitions—to ascend from a lesser god to a true evil god, and to join the ranks of the current four or five gods, becoming six—he has many enemies. Those who are also lesser gods don't want to have another powerful being to contend with on their heads.

Going up another level, the Emperor goes without saying. Even the Four Chaos Gods don't want another player in their eternal game.

If he were to show himself, countless powerful beings would try to stop his plans and destroy his divine kingdom.

Of course, Bassol isn't truly without any allies.

The Chaos Warmaster Alchaton, who orchestrated the Cataclysm and unleashed the Crimson Scar, was the ally he found.

This so-called 'chosen by the four gods' is not actually one of the four gods. He did receive the blessing of the four gods and possess great power, but his ambition far exceeds that.

It was precisely because of the peace treaty with Alchaton that Bassor was able to slowly and secretly search for the 'key' fragments in the real universe.

His Calamity Fleet was only able to be built with the help of the Chaos Warmaster.

Currently, among the Chaos forces battling human armies on Rainborn Star and in the Honey Earth Sector, Bassol's own demon engine army and bio-monster forces constitute only a portion, probably less than half. The remaining half consists of various Chaos warbands and cult traitors who have come together from different factions.

In the real universe, it would be impractical to have a large number of mixed forces supporting the attack, and also to have an extremely powerful avatar of an evil god due to the enhancement of the artifact.

However, penetrating the warp, finding Bassol's true form, and directly attacking his divine realm became feasible.

The key point is that this guy's well-hidden divine kingdom, just when his ultimate goal was within reach and about to be achieved, this cautious evil god still revealed his true colors and was observed by Gu Hang.

Even with the aid of artifacts, the powerful avatar he unleashed in the real universe still required his own investment of power. This is a very clear example of power transfer within the warp.

Even though he had been very careful to conceal it, it was difficult for others to observe. Gu Hang, whose eyes were on Leon and countless Alliance warriors in the real universe, could trace the entire path from avatar to artifact to subspace divine kingdom.

Then don't blame me for taking action!
