Chapter 784: When a power that does not belong to mortals appears on the battlefield, we have already won!
Just imagine — two sides locked in battle, one being constantly pressed back, its room to survive squeezed tighter and tighter, just as that side is about to win.
The other side pulls out a trump card and wipes you out in an instant.
That's pure cruelty!
Enemy: "If you had such a good thing, why didn't you use it sooner? Just to watch me make a fool of myself, right?"
"But, after all, the quantity is limited…"
"Hey, Sister Liuyun, what are you saying? Use it without worry! Use it boldly! If we run out, I'll find a way!"
While speaking, every Archon of the Dark Sea was trembling all over.
"In that case, the few of us will begin joining the battlefield one by one. The navy hasn't seen our true strength yet, so we can hold them back for now — just providing shells on a regular basis should be about enough."
Having made up their minds, Liuyun Jiefeng and the others… Immortals~ began assigning tasks.
"No, Sister Liuyun, here's what we do — first arrive near the battlefield, but don't reveal ourselves yet."
Jiang Yan, watching the plan about to be arranged for everyone, hurriedly called a halt.
"What is our objective?"
"It's… to win?"
"Combining everything from before, I think what we need is to use this opportunity to let the people of Liyue take charge of Liyue themselves."
"Exactly. So we still have to wait — let's see how far our Liyue, relying only on mortals, can go."
Jiang Yan spoke, following Morax's words.
"As long as the opponent's Archons, or Immortals, or any power that does not belong to mortals appears on the battlefield, then we have already won. Because our Liyue, from this moment on, already possesses the strength to formally match an Archon — even if it can't last long."
The others listened to Jiang Yan's description with some worry.
"But, what if something unexpected happens?"
Hearing these words, Jiang Yan shook his head.
"Anything can go wrong. Only under enough pressure can we see Liyue's true strength."
"But this is also to guard against accidents, so I ask everyone to try to stay hidden first, and only step in when something is about to go wrong — keep the losses to a minimum."
After several hours of discussion, the plan was continually refined.
Finally, at dawn, the meeting was formally adjourned.
A few days later.
Jiang Yan, seated at a high vantage point, saw from afar the Fontaine army sailing across the sea.
Watching the menacing army approach, Jiang Yan's expression turned Solemn.
He could not say how this battle would end — even a victory would be an absolute pyrrhic one.
Of course, that was only in terms of a war among mortals.

But the war's consumption, the lives lost — those are absolute.
Jiang Yan watched the approaching Fontaine army and slowly exhaled a breath.
At this moment, Jiang Yan's feelings were subtle — wanting the army to win a victory to establish confidence, yet also worrying about their expenditure and casualties.
