Chapter 1528 Resolute Will Overcomes Adversity
Upon learning that the battle was over and that they had successfully repelled the enemy's attack, many members of the investigation team couldn't help but cheer.

Some people suddenly felt their legs go weak. They hadn't felt anything during the fierce battle because of the drugs and the field of energy, but now that they relaxed, they suddenly felt sore all over.

Despite being physically exhausted, they were unusually excited. In fact, when those demonic fields invaded their bodies, they felt extremely uncomfortable, not only physically but also mentally.

Just staring at those demons made them feel dizzy, and they endured the discomfort by sheer willpower.

Just then, the sound of running footsteps came from behind. It was the medical staff of the investigation team who were hiding in the security office who quickly stepped forward and helped or carried the members of the investigation team away on stretchers.

Those who were able to stand in the arena and remain in good condition were only the fighters from various countries who came to provide support.

Moreover, the battle with these demons and the victory seemed to have tempered his spirit in some way. Of course, the greatest gain was witnessing the power displayed by the throne.

They couldn't clearly see what the battle at the throne level was like, but the impact of the field and the spirit gave them a great shock. At this moment, they all vaguely sensed something. If they could calm down for a while, they might be able to gain even more from it.

The ritual site on Huan Suo Island was still in a state of combat and would take several hours to gradually return to its previous state. However, with the alert lifted, the people who had been hiding in the shelter were able to come out.

In reality, the actual fighting time was not long; from the enemy's intrusion to the sealing off of the area, it was only about ten minutes. As for those who had moved to other places, they could only return after the blizzard subsided.

After the investigation team treated the wounded, they held a celebratory banquet that evening in the largest reception hall inside the Ringlock fortress.

After the battle, most of the participants, especially the fighters who came to provide support, underwent a change in mindset. They were no longer simply afraid of the demons from beyond the sky, but instead gained some confidence and assurance.

Their initial admiration for the strong had been replaced by a deeper respect for Chen Chuan. He had not only led them to victory, but had also taught them a lesson on how to cooperate with fighters of different levels when fighting against extraterrestrial demons.

During the banquet, Chen Chuan also spoke individually with each fighter and gave them some pointers, since there were only about ten people in total.

The massive bombardment is just a few months away, and these people will undoubtedly be at the forefront. It's uncertain how many will survive. He's willing to offer them some assistance and boost their fighting strength. The more power he has, the weaker the enemy will be.

The demons on the other side are endless and impossible to kill completely. They cannot afford to fight at the cost of attrition, so they must make the best use of every bit of their strength while preserving themselves.

Besides resisting foreign invasion, the key point is to unite people's hearts and minds. This is the real help his arrival has given to Huan Suo Island.

Everyone tried their best to digest what Chen Chuan taught them; it's rare for a Throne Fighter to do this kind of thing normally.

Even if you have a teacher-student relationship, unless you are someone with truly outstanding talent, it would be good enough if they could give you some general guidance on how to proceed.

Most of the time, they train and explore on their own using simulated fields.

Now, if people don't understand something, they can ask Chen Chuan, and he will definitely give them a precise answer, which has enlightened many people.

The banquet lasted until the morning before Chen Chuancai left amidst everyone's gratitude and heartfelt thanks.

After Chen Chuan came out, he stood in front of the observation deck of the high tower fortress and looked at the blizzard drifting outside the island. Snowflakes were flying at high speed everywhere in the atmosphere, and the entire sea and sky seemed to have turned into a white expanse.

Most people can't leave immediately and need to stay for a while, but he doesn't have that concern and can leave at any time. He can leave around today.

Scalson then walked over. "Advisor Chen, are you preparing to leave?"

Chen Chuan said, "I'll be leaving soon; I still have a lot of things to take care of back home."

Scalson understood that as a member of the Supreme Advisory Council, ensuring the safety of Da Shun was Chen Chuan's top priority, and it was truly commendable that he had come to help them this time.

Without Chen Chuan, if the defenses were breached, even if countries around the world came to the rescue afterward, there probably wouldn't be many survivors at the headquarters of the investigation team. Even if there were still quite a few branches and observers stationed in various countries, the entire investigation team would be a mere shell of its former self.

He said from the bottom of his heart, "Consultant Chen, thank you, thank you for your help."

Chen Chuanchuan said, "This concerns the safety of the World Ring, so there's no need for thanks."

Mr. Scalson, this incident should be a rehearsal for the full-scale invasion of the demons before the Great Collision. We have dealt with it today, but it is not over yet. In the next few months, similar situations will likely occur, either around the islands or elsewhere.

When I get back, I'll tell people back home about the situation here and try to provide you with some support.

Scalson nodded silently. Chen Chuan couldn't stay here for long; they still had to rely on themselves. However, he realized from this battle that they probably couldn't hold out on their own.

Therefore, he had to make a request. He said, "Advisor Chen, I'm sorry, as you've seen, the investigation team's strength is limited. It's difficult for us to hold out on our own; we can only rely on international forces. I would like to ask if it's possible for Da Shun to support us with an active consciousness at the throne level?"

Their key weakness is the lack of top-tier combat power. If they had active consciousness entities at the Cave Profound level, they could actually hold their ground.

Chen Chuanlue pondered for a moment: "We cannot give it directly, because international opinion may think that you are biased towards Da Shun, which is not conducive to the independence of the investigation team."

I suggest that you compile this invasion into a document and convene an international conference, so that we can provide you with reasonable assistance in the name of international support.

Scalson nodded silently, indicating that he had made a note of it, and said, "Advisor Chen, is there anything we can offer?"

Chen Chuan said, "If there's anything I can say, it's that you should just stick to your original stance and attitude, and please keep doing so. I think that's the foundation of the investigation team's existence."

He glanced at the raging snowstorm outside, now kept at bay by the restored area on the island, and said, "External attacks alone are not so scary; what is scary is our inability to gather our own strength."

Hopefully, the existence of the investigation team will help us move towards this goal after the massive impact.

After saying these words, he left under Scalson's watchful eye and went to the airship that the investigation team had prepared for him.

If he were alone, he would have left immediately, but this time he has to take Lily and Briggs with him to deal with the anomaly.

Before leaving, he checked his spoils from the trip. Meng Liaozhong had left behind quite a few precious materials. Although he no longer lacked them, it was always good to have some in case of need.

However, after Liao Chan was destroyed, he unexpectedly left behind an artifact, which was used to stabilize his body and facilitate his movement in this world.

This thing is of no use to him. After thinking about it, he decided to leave it for the time being and feed it to the relic left behind by Emperor Wenguang when needed.

At noon, Lily and Briggs, who had been prepared, boarded the airship.

After giving the two a few brief instructions, he ordered the airship to set off. As for the blizzard outside, Ling Su's domain would protect them and would not affect them.

This time, the airships will still take the northern route. The difference is that they will detour from the northern end of Yinglu, which is now the northern sea area of ​​the Linax Federation, then pass through the corridor strait between Da Shun and the Federation, and then head southwest to enter the outer ocean area of ​​Da Shun.

With a "click," the camera flashed, and Lily sat in the airship taking pictures of the outside world.

Briggs glanced at her. This involved members of the Supreme Advisory Council of Da Shun. Such people wouldn't just let Lily release the photos of their itinerary; it would be good enough if she could get some written reports.

However, he didn't tell Lily that it was fine to let her take pictures first, and they could talk about the rest later.

Chen Chuan sat opposite the two of them and reminded them, "Miss Caldwell, remember to use the breathing technique I taught you."

Lily herself was unaware that, under the continuous influence of the Playful Child's field, the alienated organization was growing too actively and had begun to rob life.

Therefore, Chen Chuan instructed her to indirectly inform You Tong through breathing techniques that these things were harmful to her. Although You Tong would not stop the field invasion, he would actively help her recover.

This is actually a rare opportunity, and it can even help us easily overcome some insurmountable obstacles.

Briggs answered on her behalf, "Consultant Chen, I will remind her in time."

Chen Chuan nodded slightly. While anomalies can have negative effects, if controlled properly, they can also have some positive ones.

He was also considering whether he could use this unusual characteristic to train fighters, but after thinking about it, he realized that only people with unique personalities could use this method, and the risks were also considerable.

Moreover, if one cannot keep up mentally when using this method to break through, they will be a crippled fighter, and it can only be used to train a specific group of people.

With the blessing of the spiritual energy field, the airship traveled extremely fast, crossing the Yinglu in just half a day and entering the area of ​​Haidongdao, which was already within the horizon.

Before this, Chen Chuan had sent a telegram to Da Shun, asking if the Secret Cult Review Bureau had a suitable place to handle the anomaly, and they responded with a coordinate, which happened to be on an island in the outer ocean.
