Chapter 886: The Shock of Planetary News
"What? A Planetary-Class powerhouse?!"
The Dragon Emperor and the five Dragon Kings were utterly stunned.
The Green Dragon Queen, with the poorest mental fortitude among them, nearly lost control and tumbled from the sky.
This news was a shock of monumental proportions, far surpassing the surprise they felt when Zhong Feng revealed that the previous Red Dragon King's body was in the Skrull research facility. This new revelation was ten to a hundred times more shocking!
What did a Planetary-Class powerhouse entail?
Achieving Planetary Class was not just a simple step up from the Divine Class. It represented a quantum leap in power.
To put it in numerical terms, according to the Skrull consensus, ordinary cultivators experience a tenfold increase in strength when advancing from the second to the eighth rank.
For example, an Eighth Rank Divine powerhouse is ten times as powerful as a Seventh Rank Legendary, and a Seventh Rank Legendary is ten times as powerful as a Sixth Rank Sacred Domain.
A peak Sixth Rank powerhouse is only about three times as strong as a newly ascended Sixth Rank, with the significant leap in power occurring during the ascension.
However, this "tenfold" increase does not apply when advancing from the Eighth Rank to Planetary Class.
According to the Saint Silver estimation, a newly ascended Planetary Class powerhouse is roughly a thousand times as powerful as a newly ascended Eighth Rank Divine! The difference is not just tenfold but a thousandfold, an unimaginable gap!
This is why a Planetary Class powerhouse can say, "All beneath the planet are mere ants," without exaggeration.
The immense power leap during the ascension to Planetary Class also means that the probability of a Divine Class powerhouse advancing to Planetary Class is staggeringly low.
In the core regions of the Saint Silver Federation, only one out of a thousand Eighth Rank Divine powerhouses might achieve Planetary Class.
In backwater planets like Blue Star and Skrull, the probability is zero. Even if all the planet's resources were poured into one individual, it would still fall far short.
For a Planetary Class powerhouse to emerge on Blue Star, they must have left early to join the Saint Silver Federation and ascended through a series of extraordinary circumstances.
The probability of such an event is lower than a person being crushed to death by a million fluffy sheep suddenly appearing in the sky while they sleep. This is why the six high-rank dragons were so astonished.
...
Zhong Feng shared this news with the dragons to boost their morale, essentially saying, "See, we still have someone looking out for us on Blue Star!"
Seeing the dragons' stunned expressions, Zhong Feng smiled and said, "Don't be too surprised. I only learned about this today.
This information was revealed to us by Donna, the game monitor of Evolution. Otherwise, we wouldn't have known about this powerhouse."
"Zhong Feng, Zhong Feng, can you call back your Planetary Class to beat up the Skrulls?" White Dragon Princess Koko flapped her wings, urgently.
"Unfortunately, that's not possible," Zhong Feng sighed.
He then explained Donna's warning about the "fair war principle" to the dragons.
He added, "Even if this powerhouse were willing to return and help us unselfishly, the Saint Silver Federation would send an equivalent Planetary Class powerhouse.
If Planetary Class powerhouses were to fight, both planets would be utterly destroyed. So it's best not to contact him."
"Ah, what a pity," the dragons sighed in unison.
They had initially thought that the Blue Star people had found a shortcut, but it now seemed like a false hope.
The scene fell into a brief silence.
...
After about half a minute of silence, Dragon Emperor Kadrigus broke the silence, saying, "Regardless, let's head back for now."
With a flap of its massive dragon wings, it turned and spoke to Zhong Feng, "Zhong Feng, let's head to my nest. There, we can discuss the equipment in detail."
The Dragon Emperor, like the other Dragon Lords, was deeply intrigued by the equipment crafted by the Blue Star humans. They were eager to start mass production, hoping to ensure that every dragon would be equipped by the time the great battle began.
His tone carried a hint of respect, clearly indicating that the news of a "Planetary-Class Warrior" had made him more amenable to Zhong Feng.
"Very well, Your Majesty," Zhong Feng quickly shrank, returning to the gap between the red dragon queen's scales, and used the [Stealth] ability to hide himself.
The other Dragon Lords, each lost in their own thoughts, turned and flew back toward Dragon Island.
First, there was the equipment, and then the "Planetary-Class Warrior." They had received too much information today and needed time to digest it all.
...
Six high-ranking dragons formed a "V" shape as they flew toward Dragon Island, with Princess Koko, the white dragon, following behind.
Zhong Feng stood on the red dragon queen's back.
Although his body had shrunk, it did not hinder his communication with the dragons.
Not long after the dragons had turned, he spoke, "Your Majesty, and all the Dragon Lords, I have two matters to discuss on this visit to Dragon Island.
First, of course, is the equipment trade, which is the primary purpose of my visit.
Second, it concerns a 'base.' A few of my companions will arrive at Linlong City in the next couple of days, and we hope to establish a base on Dragon Island to facilitate our operations behind enemy lines."
"No problem, bring your companions over," Dragon Emperor Cadrigoth replied without hesitation. "I had already promised you this. Furthermore, I will do my utmost to ensure their safety once they arrive."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhong Feng expressed his gratitude.
...
...
At the same time, in the White-Headed Eagle Tribe.
"What did you say? A Planetary-Class Warrior?!" In a special secret realm of the White-Headed Eagle Tribe, the White-Headed Eagle Emperor gaped in shock, staring disbelievingly at Chancellor Cao.
Just a moment ago, Chancellor Cao had informed him about the "Planetary-Class Warrior" and the "Fair War" principles.
The White-Headed Eagle Emperor found the news hard to believe.
If it weren't for the Saint Silver's own words, he would never have believed it was true.
However, as Chancellor Cao pointed out, although Blue Star had a Planetary-Class backer, this backer would not be of much use in the upcoming battle. They would still have to rely on themselves to defeat the Skrull.
Chancellor Cao smiled, "Your Excellency, once we return to Blue Star, we will widely publicize this news to boost the morale of our planet's inhabitants.
However, before we return, it's best if you keep this a secret to avoid any unnecessary complications."
"Very well, I will ensure confidentiality," the White-Headed Eagle Emperor nodded in assurance.
At the same time, his gaze shifted to Dornic, who was battling in the sky. "Let's focus on the equipment. That is the key to our current cooperation."
"Agreed," Chancellor Cao also looked at Dornic.
They were currently in a secret realm controlled by the White-Headed Eagle Tribe.
The secret realm was not just for conversation; the main reason was to allow Dornic to demonstrate the equipment he wore.
The best way to showcase equipment was through combat.
No matter how much one might praise an item, nothing compared to demonstrating its performance in a real fight.
Thus, after a brief discussion, Chancellor Cao and the White-Headed Eagle Emperor decided to have Dornic demonstrate the value of the equipment brought from Blue Star through combat.
