Because from Theodore, he learned that the world's ascension would postpone the second invasion.
Chen Luo's initial plan was to increase his strength as much as possible within this postponed time, while also integrating the power of the entire world.
Finally, after unifying the power of the entire Blue Star, they would together welcome the occurrence of the second impact.
The so-called "Genesis" was to establish an ultimate organization that surpassed all historical nations and groups in this ascended world.
Finally, Chen Luo and all of humanity would work together to jointly confront the terrifying enemy in the second descent, whose name even Theodore could not utter.
The first step of the plan was very successful.
Chen Luo's significant breakthrough in individual strength and his act of annihilating the Undead greatly improved the evaluation of the favored races of the world by the Doomsday Game.
Subsequently, the ascension of the entire world proceeded as Theodore had said.
The strength, foundation, and resilience of the entire world rapidly increased.
Most importantly, after Blue Star was upgraded to an intermediate world, it gained a final buffer period of more than two years.
Within the first month after the battle with Theodore,
Chen Luo traveled tirelessly throughout the Great Yan, continuously enriching his skill library with various newly appearing monsters.
Under the use of Unlimited Cooldown and Divine Chant, Chen Luo was constantly improving his strength composition.
Within this month,
Chen Luo had visited numerous archipelagos in the far south, where he rescued survivors from the sea amidst the encirclement of many monsters emerging from the ocean.
Chen Luo had also been to the borderlands on the vast plateaus in the northwest, where he rescued the border defense forces and the people they protected, returning them to Starfire City.
Whether in the south or the north, every inch of Great Yan's land was personally trodden by Chen Luo.
The wild jungles, the vast desert seas, the endless waves, the cold snowfields, the expansive grasslands.
And amidst all these natural landscapes, the human cities destroyed by monsters.
Therefore, Chen Luo had not had a moment of peace for this entire month.
Tens of millions of survivors were saved by him from the abyss of despair.
Whether in the Imperial Capital or Starfire City, people sincerely praised his name.
In this post-apocalyptic era, Chen Luo had unconsciously become a beacon of sorts.
The wild ancient forest after defeating the Beast King was the final stop of his journey.
Now, the Great Yan territory, expanded tenfold, was covered with the silver-white flags planted by Chen Luo.
The upgrade of the territory was only one step away,
Only this tenth of the land, covered by endless wind and snow, remained!
And here, an unprecedented monster had been lurking since the beginning of the apocalypse.
Unlike Theodore, who needed endless undead to showcase his malice.
Ever since the weak Chen Luo looked up at the exhibition venue, he understood that the dragon was a creature that had already approached perfection.
And it was the biggest obstacle for Chen Luo to integrate the entire Great Yan and upgrade the territory again!
At the same time, the collision with it was also the first step for Chen Luo to test his own strength and become the strongest in this world!
...
On the endless banquet table, the atmosphere became a bit subdued due to Su Xiao's question.
Hu Tao looked at Su Xiao, then at Chen Luo, and suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the room had become inexplicably heavy.
As a Legion Commander, Hu Tao was also aware of Chen Luo's plan.
But as someone living in Starfire City, as the strongest Legion Commander under Chen Luo,
Hu Tao, with every moment she lived here, the stronger she became, the more clearly she could feel the immense pressure from the east.
Although she had never truly seen the existence called Forbidden Item Number One with her own eyes,
Hu Tao's senses clearly told her that the terrifying wind and snow covering one-tenth of Great Yan's territory was merely the residual aftermath of that entity's power.
It was a monster beyond human comprehension, a supreme being that completely overturned common sense and was capable of destroying the world single-handedly.
And when Hu Tao thought of Chen Luo going to fight such a monster, her heart could not remain at ease.
As if sensing Hu Tao's unease, a large hand quietly grasped her slender hand.
Chen Luo looked at Su Xiao with a smile, his voice cheerful as he said,
"The main objectives of the first step are basically completed. All survivors within Great Yan have been rescued and brought back to the twin cities."
"But don't worry, I know the gap between me and it."
"This battle will definitely happen, but not now."
Looking at Su Xiao's somewhat doubtful gaze, Chen Luo instantly understood her concerns:
"Don't worry, it is very powerful, and very proud."
"It won't make a move before I'm ready. That is its dignity as a strong being."
Speaking of which, Chen Luo looked at Xiao Yue in Su Xiao's arms, whose eyes seemed dead, and couldn't help but sigh,
"Unlike the pursuit of wealth in our past world, and unlike those invasion races with dark intentions."
"Guys like Xiao Yue and that dragon, who were drawn into the game, are truly sincere about their attitude towards power."
"What they want is a battle between the strong."
