Chapter 455: The Standoff
"Acting."
The Almighty remained calm, observing the people at the Babel Tower from behind the scenes.
Is this acting, right?
Pretending to have lost the will to fight, wanting to make oneself careless.
The mighty inspiration grants one the ability of foresight. The Almighty possesses tremendous psychic power, and her inspiration is also exceptionally strong. Occasionally, she can catch glimpses of future images.
Even without any evidence, the Almighty still believed that this fellow called "Profligate" was actually pretending, putting on a performance.
In fact, the true capabilities of the Babel Tower may not have been revealed yet.
Sure enough.
Although Profligate seemed to have lost his will to fight, he immediately said that the Savior of the Babel Tower still didn’t want them to leave the Giant Hive.
"Do you not understand what it means to give up when things get difficult?"
The Almighty smirked in the shadows, knowing that they were feigning weakness, hoping that their hidden self could let their guard down.
"Unfortunately, the Savior of the Babel Tower didn’t know that the more they behaved this way, the more I would actually be cautious. I can eliminate them without even needing to show my true self…"
The Almighty, who held such thoughts, immediately embarked on her own attempt in the new round of battle.
However, in the midst of the new cycle, the Almighty was unable to achieve her goal.
Her goal was… to completely decimate the Babel Tower group, including the perfect clone that possessed seventy percent of her power, and to intimidate the Savior.
I hope to resolve all the problems without the need for my actual presence.
However, the Almighty soon encountered a difficult issue. Despite knowing a multitude of information, she discovered that she couldn’t rely solely on the perfect clones to defeat the members of Babel Tower.
The opponent’s strength was undoubtedly remarkable. Apart from relying on luck enhancement, they possessed a multitude of other clever tactics.
Even the Savior of Babel Tower could summon additional members of Babel Tower, making the situation more challenging for the Almighty to face. The formidable opponent she had to contend with wasn’t limited to just Nightsaber and Profligate.
And there was that mighty vampire.
And the three of them joined forces, without a doubt, effortlessly defeating the perfect clone of the Almighty.
The Almighty behind the scenes furrowed her brow, feeling a hint of unease.
In theory, she was actually invincible, because no matter what mistakes appeared, she could solve them by rewinding time.
But what if… she encountered an opponent that she couldn’t defeat at all?
No matter how much she rewound time, there were enemies she couldn’t find a solution for… Of course, such formidable foes existed.
Perhaps the Babel Tower was such an adversary in the story!
"Only I and my clone together can have a chance to defeat all the people of the Babel Tower…"
Inside the headquarters building of Noy Military, a grand company with 155 floors, there was a room that wasn’t extravagant but rather had a classical charm to it. The furniture and decorations exuded a sense of humanity.
Sitting in the room, the Almighty, who had the same appearance as the girl who had appeared before everyone, pondered the current situation and fell into deep thought.
"Once more…"
The cycle began again.
However, this time the Almighty still failed to succeed.
Over and over again, time after time…
Mu Ling and the others showed no reaction, but Bai Yan felt mentally exhausted. Each time, he had to speculate about the Almighty’s thoughts and also control the actions of himself and the others.
He couldn’t let the Babel Tower reveal its power to easily destroy the Almighty, directly scaring them to the point of not daring to come out or even escape.
However, the Almighty couldn’t easily defeat the Babel Tower without using her true form.
We must force her true form to emerge!
"Defeating the boss is not a difficult task, but aiming for the platinum trophy is indeed a challenge…"
Bai Yan sighed, and could only accompany the Almighty to play time and time again.
The seventeenth time.
Time rewound.
This time, the Almighty was finally pushed to the brink of despair.
She finally learned something.
If he didn’t risk his life and give his all, he would never be able to defeat and make the Babel Tower retreat.
Even though she possessed the power to turn back time, her strong cards on hand didn’t actually provide her with such ample freedom… No, that wasn’t the case.
But the Babel Tower was too powerful.
She couldn’t truly understand how a mysterious organization that had only appeared for about a year could become so powerful.
"Babel Tower, it was truly a very scary thing…"
As for the mysterious Savior hidden behind the scenes, just the mere thought of this name fills the Almighty with a hint of fear.
For some reason, even though she didn’t feel like she had truly reached a desperate situation, she still felt a sense of awe towards the Savior of Babel Tower.
That was definitely a mighty deity.
And, it should be even more terrifying than the Heart of Radiance.
The Heart of Radiance itself had little influence in World of Noah, and its true form was greatly restricted upon descending, which is why it gave the Almighty a chance.
However, the Savior of Babel Tower never truly appeared, yet they could effortlessly influence the various nations of Noah’s world through powerful "pawns".
"What a frightening presence, perhaps one day, He will be able to control the entire world of Noah…"
The Almighty mumbled to herself:
"If your purpose is to force out my true form, to kill me… that’s actually not a true solution to time reversal… Only killing my true form would not be able to prevent time reversal."
If only killing the true form could prevent time reversal, then the Almighty would have been killed by the Heart of Radiance in the past.
In fact, even if the true form is killed, the consciousness of the Almighty would instantly transfer to a clone, and there would still be gaps and opportunities to initiate time reversal!
Her clone, of course, not only existed in the clone production center. In fact, to prevent unexpected situations, the Almighty had long ago hidden backup clones in various secret locations.
And besides her, no one else knew the location.
It is because she had various preparations that the Almighty considered herself an "invincible" being.

"I always felt that something was not right."
Once again, Mu Ling arrived at Partridge’s house. She furrowed her brows and felt that something was not quite right.
Why did she have a strong sense of déjà vu?
"Maybe, the Almighty, she has the power to foresee the future!"
Mu Ling, combining her sense of déjà vu, had a sudden idea and blurted out this unfounded judgment.
Mu Ling, with just an hour remaining in this cycle of reincarnation, purely relied on her intuition and inspiration to make deductions.
"It’s not about foreseeing the future, but rather, traveling back in time," Bai Yan stood by and calmly revealed the truth.
Mu Ling and her two companions were all astonished!
In this cycle of reincarnation, it was their first time learning about this horrifying thing.
"Actually, we have traveled back in time many times. And during these instances of time travel, the great Savior has been engaged in a battle of wits and bravery with the Almighty."
"You have come here many times before."
After Bai Yan finished speaking, he added, "The Savior told me all this information, it’s absolutely true."
"I can’t believe it turned out like this…"
The information was overwhelming, and Mu Ling couldn’t process it all right away.
Partridge’s face turned pale, she knew that the Almighty was incredibly powerful, but she never expected them to be this powerful.
"Will we all die?"
That person actually possessed such terrifying power, and Elene appeared astonished, but soon she calmed down.
How shall we handle this in the end?
Elene took a deep breath and pulled out her notepad. She slowly wrote down her thoughts.
"So, what should we do then? If that’s the case, can’t we just destroy the cloning facility without being able to kill the Almighty?"
"In fact, the outcome had already been determined," Bai Yan spoke slowly, saying, "Babel Tower would conquer the Almighty, there was no doubt about this outcome."
After several rounds of confrontation, the Almighty had come to realize.
As the greatest fighting force, if she didn’t show up and give it her all, it would be impossible for everyone to defeat Babel Tower.
Throughout the process, Bai Yan remained in control of the overall strength of the Babel Tower members.
Gradually, the Almighty in the shadows started to feel a sense of illusion.
Babel Tower was stronger than her clones, but its strength was actually limited. If she herself joined the battle, there was a very high chance that she would be able to defeat everyone in Babel Tower.
"The choices currently before the Almighty are actually only two… Either endure and survive by hiding, allowing this city to be ‘destroyed’ by us… Or gather all the strength and make a desperate attempt to kill us."
"What do you think she will choose?" Bai Yan asked with a smile.
After a moment of silence, Mu Ling spoke, "It should be the first one, I think."
"According to what you just said, isn’t she a cautious person? Even if we behave recklessly outside, as long as she keeps hiding, she can still persevere for a long time."
"The second one."
After a moment of silence, Elene concentrated her psychic power and wrote down her thoughts on the message board.
"That thing hidden deep within the person’s soul, it is madness."
There is an old saying that goes, "Your enemies understand you better than your friends."
As a matter of fact, it was also true.
In her heart, Elene knew that deep down, the Almighty was a person consumed by madness.
Normally, she seemed timid and cautious, but when it came to crucial moments of taking a chance, she would not have any fear.
"I also think the second possibility is more likely," Bai Yan nodded.
"So, when will she launch the attack?" Mu Ling didn’t question, but simply accepted her teammates’ judgment.
"Anything can happen at any time."
Just as Bai Yan had finished speaking, he suddenly felt a surge of inspiration. He sensed a tremendous threat approaching this place.
Have they arrived?
Their determination to kill us was unwavering.
"Is this where we start?"
Bai Yan, Mu Ling, and Elene were not afraid at all, but Partridge couldn’t bear her fear. She cowered on the ground, trembling, and suddenly looked up towards the window.
Partridge was extremely startled and cried out!
"In the sky, what is that!"
A gigantic warship, nearly a thousand meters long, shimmering with silver-white light, suddenly appeared in the sky.
Its sleek hull was inscribed with countless runes, harnessing a power that evoked fear. Beneath the massive ship, silver-colored energy gathered within the disc-shaped structure.
Bai Yan gazed outside the window as a colossal figure filled the sky, emanating an overwhelming presence. It was gathering a tremendous force, as powerful as a roaring tsunami.
"That is not something from Noah’s world… It is assistance from the Almighty."
