**Chapter 1197: Whether I Succeed or Not, It Doesn't Matter**

Lin Moyu said that there was only one path left. Lin

But everyone felt a sinking feeling in their hearts, understanding the underlying message in Lin Moyu's words: there was no way back.

Lin Moyu said softly, "When the boat reaches the bridge, it will straighten itself. Worrying won't solve the problem."

"Do as we discussed earlier. Meng Gang, protect them. Leave the fighting to me."

Meng Gang, being a soldier and a God King, quickly calmed down, exuding a soldier's aura. Since there was no way back, they had to bravely move forward.

Lin Moyu led the way, and the group continued to advance.

From this moment on, several Skeleton God Generals appeared around Meng Gang and the others.

Ten Skeleton God Generals protected them as the first line of defense.

Meng Gang was the second line of defense.

Several Skeleton God Generals also cleared the way ahead for Lin Moyu.

As he pondered the task, Lin Moyu realized that Wang Zhenghao and Rong Jie didn't play a significant role here, but they had their reasons for being present.

Their cultivation had reached True God Ninth Rank, just one step away from becoming God Kings.

Perhaps one experience was enough for them to complete their advancement.

Their potential couldn't compare to geniuses like Qian Huang, so their advancement difficulty was much lower.

Moreover, through this task, they could earn considerable military merits.

It was a way for the military to cultivate its soldiers.

Not every task had to be useful; with so many soldiers, the military had to cast a wide net.

Additionally, Lin Moyu thought of another reason.

The military wanted to test his abilities, adding two seemingly useless burdens to increase the task's difficulty.

For someone with an honorary title, the military would be relatively strict, which was understandable.

Lin Moyu understood these two reasons and didn't find them strange.

However, Yuzhu's inclusion puzzled him.

This woman from the Yu family claimed to be completing a promotion task, but what was her true purpose?

Lin Moyu didn't believe her motives were pure.

Regardless, since the team was already formed, as long as she followed orders, he would continue the task with her.

Lin Moyu's eyes reflected his thoughts, having summarized the causes and effects.

In summary, the military didn't expect him to succeed in this task. It was more of an attempt.

Three of the four elders from Fortress No. 6, except Li Yuanbai, had already arrived here.

This meant that three God Sovereigns were stationed at the entrance of Area 6-99.

According to Li Yuanbai's main production, stronger corps commanders were also ready.

"This is gearing up for a big fight..."

"And it's not a small-scale fight, but a large-scale one. The involvement might not be limited to Fortress No. 6."

"Sending me to rescue people is both a test and a way to buy time, giving the military more time to prepare."

"So whether I succeed or not doesn't really matter. What's important is that I go in, and I do so under the watchful eyes of other races."

"Something must have happened in the area. What exactly?"

Lin Moyu felt he had cleared his thoughts.

From the moment he entered the forward base, he sensed something was off.

The feeling grew stronger upon arriving here.

If the human race were truly preparing for war, they would act swiftly, without prior notice.

Secret operations require time, so the result of the standoff and discussions among the races was to buy time. There must be a reason for this, and the reason lies within Area 6-99.

Lin Moyu also considered another possibility: if the human race was doing this, were other races doing the same?

Everyone is smart; what one can think of, others can too.

A sense of urgency arose in Lin Moyu's heart, "It seems I need to hurry."

Regardless of the military's true intentions, the time left for him was running out.

His task was to rescue people. If he didn't complete it before the war started, his promotion task would fail.

Failure would result in the deduction of military merits, and he wouldn't be able to attempt another promotion task for ten years.

Moreover, once the war started, he might die in it.

Lin Moyu's gaze swept around. The bismuth gold, glowing blue, illuminated the starry sky like a giant cage, enclosing them.

Lin Moyu almost felt the urge to find an exit and leave immediately.

"What's wrong?" Yuzhu noticed the change in Lin Moyu's aura.

Lin Moyu shook his head, "Nothing, just thinking about something."

Yuzhu responded with an "Oh," "Is it about the Gold-Eating Beasts?"

Lin Moyu followed up, "Do you know much about the Gold-Eating Beast King?"

"The Gold-Eating Beast King..." Yuzhu tilted her head, clearly searching her memory.

Lin Moyu observed her. This beautiful woman, with her extraordinary family heritage, knew a lot.

But it was clear she didn't know what was happening here and had recklessly followed along.

In his earlier thoughts, Lin Moyu had guessed that Yuzhu was likely here to observe him.

Given his exceptional performance, it was normal for a descendant of a prominent family to observe him.

Lin Moyu, though from a small world, was familiar with the structures of both small and great worlds. The difference was merely in scale.

A small world is still a world, with families within it. Lin Moyu, having once held a high position, was well-versed in these dynamics. Observing geniuses, befriending them, or even integrating them into the family.

Marriage alliances were a very effective method...

Lin Moyu realized he was overthinking.

At this moment, Yuzhu finished her thoughts, "Records of the Gold-Eating Beast King are very few. It's only known that a group of over ten thousand Gold-Eating Beasts might give birth to a Beast King, with strength around God King Fourth Rank."

Lin Moyu already knew this information and felt a bit disappointed, thinking, "If the number of Gold-Eating Beasts increases to fifty thousand or even a hundred thousand..."

"Would a stronger Beast King be born, perhaps even an intelligent one..."

In the vast great world, anything is possible.

Especially on the battlefield, nothing should be surprising.

The appearance of the Gold-Eating Beasts has always been a mystery.

No one knows how they appear or where they come from.

But every time they appear, they cause some deaths and damage.

After consuming a large amount of bismuth gold and killing other nearby life forms, they disappear again.

In his thoughts, the group completely left the passage.

As they exited the passage and truly entered Area 6-99, the light blue glow was replaced by a deeper blue light.

It was like seeing a beautiful ocean, with blue light surging like waves, layer upon layer.

This was a beautiful starry sky, very picturesque.

In the distant starry sky, there were specks of blue light flickering.

Each blue light was bismuth gold.

Bismuth gold came in various sizes, and its light, refracted and reflected through space, formed this blue world.

But they had no time to admire the beautiful scene, as attacks came from all directions.
