Amare raised an eyebrow, directing a dubious expression at Rui.
Rui shrugged with a wry smile.
"It will be fine, they can survive without us," he remarked lightly. "Not to mention, the next stage of the war will not begin right away. The phase of rapid and rushed mobilization is over. They already tried that for one month, and it ended in spectacular failure. From this point on…"
His expression grew serious.
"This will be a long-term war."
Amare pondered the matter. "Because they cannot penetrate the sea as easily as before?"
Rui nodded. "The Great Nam Ocean is impregnable. Quasi-Transcendent beasts and monsters are not that strong compared to top-level fighters like us, but inside the ocean, they are basically invincible. I'm sure that the true world has highly sophisticated submarine technology, but even then, it is highly unlikely that land-dwelling civilizations will be able to overcome a literal ocean of monsters underwater."
