Chapter 794 Enigma and Nightmare Group

"We're here," Varian announced as the ghost ship stopped at one of Mars' spaceports.

The exit sprang open and Enigma rushed to the teleportation section.

Varian followed behind without any disguise. It was a rare occasion for him to be 'him'.

The crowd grew shocked gasps at the appearance of the mysterious youth, but the guards wordlessly stopped them from approaching him.

With Bali at the helm, the treatment of Varian and Enigma suddenly elevated and they were given a lot of special treatment.

Dressed in her signature all-black dress, with her beautiful and almost dreamish tricolor hair waving with her every step, Enigma stood out.

She entered one of the teleportation formations and activated it.

The space around her began to twist and a white light started to envelop her.

As she was about to leave, Enigma stiffly raised her hand and awkwardly waved her hand.

Varian gave her an encouraging smile and yelled. "Don't die!"

His words seemed to set a trigger as Enigma's voice reached his mind through telepathy. "I'm the one who always tells you that! Don't risk too much now that you're alone! Don't die!"

'Does she see me as a problem child or what?' Varian couldn't understand what exactly she was thinking.

Shaking those thoughts off his head, Varian hoped Enigma to resolve the dangerous situation in Mars. If that wasn't possible, he wished for her to at least prevent the worst from happening.

Varian vanished and appeared in space. Through his supervision, he saw the shining dots in the vast darkness.

The planetoids.

"Who would've thought…" Varian's voice trailed off in a tired voice.

Mars' army had taken a big hit under Mirage Queen. Only through Varian's bold actions and Bali's valor did Mirage Abyss' advantage over Mars went from 'overwhelming enough to wage war and easily win' to 'significant but not enough for a war'.

Except for the level 9s, however, Varian's adventures in the Mirage Abyss dealt a huge blow to the Abyss' general combat power.

Compared to the casualties of human soldiers on the planetoid, the numbers of Abyssals were staggering.

It gave humans a noticeable edge in the level 8s, but definitely a significant edge at level 7 and below!

After the mutual weakening, both sides thought they would be locked in a stalemate for a while.

"Master, the Nightmares killed another level 9 on a Mars' planetoid," Boo's voice sounded from his comm. "The stalemate is almost broken."

"First it was me, then the Mirage Queen, and now the Nightmares. Mars' luck is truly screwed up."

The hard-won stalemate was broken by the emergence of a group of small but strong powerhouses.

Nightmares—as they called themselves—were a group of dozen low and mid level 9 Abyssals that suddenly appeared three hours ago.

While every other planet also experienced some change right then, they all had one thing in common.

They didn't get any level 9 enemies. The new forces they were facing, whatever form they came in, were level 8s.

Powerful level 8s? Sure. But still level 8s.

Of course, level 8s were the pillars of the federation. If the human army lost significant level 8s, planetoids would fall without a doubt.

However, if level 9s fell, the planet itself would fall!

Out of the eight planets, only Mars got the special treatment of receiving level 9 Abyssal reinforcements.

It made enough strategic sense. Sending a dozen new level 9s to other planets wouldn't change much.

Except for Mercury, every planet had more than 60 level 9s. But the problem with Mercury was that its planetoids were too close.

Even if these twelve level 9s were sent there, Sovereign Albert would sooner or later drag his fight with Sin King to their positions.

Since Nightmares were only low or mid level 9s, and Albert was possibly the strongest or second strongest Sovereign, just staying in the range of his battle would kill these level 9s.

Mars became the natural choice for Nightmares.

If the Nightmares managed to break the stalemate and overwhelm Mars' level 9s, the planetoids would quickly fall. Mars itself could be conquered in weeks.

"Where did the Abyssals get these new forces from?" Varian had a guess, but there was no way to verify it.

The Abysses were closed and without blasting through the Abyss Will, he couldn't enter them.

Even if he did, unlike before, the Abyss Will would keep track of Ghost Ship and leak his location to the Abyssals. It'd be a total mess.

Varian sighed and contacted a Sovereign to consult for a decision.

Soon, the hologram of a thin man with a gloomy middle-aged face popped in front of him.

"You chose to contact me when we're under attack," Sovereign Micheal Caron's eyes narrowed in suspicion. "Are you going to reveal you're siding with Abyssals? That this is your grand plan?"

"…" Varian opened his mouth and closed it a couple of times.

In a few casual talks, Irene told him, with an embarrassed expression that Micheal was pessimistic and paranoid.

Varian realized she was underplaying the severity. He also understood why Sovereign Micheal never gave an interview throughout his career.

"Which planet do you think needs my assistance?" He asked.

Micheal Caron paused for a moment and suddenly, the sky above the hologram turned red. It seemed like an explosion occurred in the same or a nearby planetoid.

But the Sovereign wasn't bothered by it. Rather, he looked annoyed at Varian's question. "How the hell would I know? We're at a critical juncture. One mistake and a planetoid will fall. With chain reaction, the planet will fall."

Micheal's face paled as he gasped. "Once a planet falls, it's over!"

Varian's lips twitched and he changed the question. "Which planet do you think will fall first?"

Micheal answered with full conviction. "Mars or Neptune, depending on which side's defense does worse. Others can hang on. But they too might fall. Damn it, the situation is dire! Maybe I should start gathering the ark…"

Varian ignored the paranoid Sovereign's ramblings and teleported to a teleportation formation.

Since Enigma was going to take care of Mars, he decided to visit Neptune.

'Wait a minute, I was going to Neptune anyway. So, is it just me or the places I'm landing at turning into hell?'
