Given Zhou Tian's situation at that time, even if Hope was minuscule, when his only choice before him was to stake everything in one desperate fight, even though he clearly knew what kind of consequences Failure would bring if he did so and failed, Zhou Tian still, almost without hesitation, made up his mind.

If all went smoothly, then Zhou Tian would naturally be able to obtain the Information he wanted at that moment, and afterward, relying on that Information he had gained, even if he wished to Annex that world, it might well no longer be an impossible matter.
