Tyre didn't know that someone was spying on him. He took out a magical mirror and contacted Dhaka.
When the mirror showed Dhaka, Tyre hurriedly said, "Big Brother, there's been a change in the situation!"
"What's going on? I'm discussing with them how to attack the Fringe. Why did you contact me so urgently? "Dhaka frowned and asked in a deep voice.
"Just now, a Chief God came to our Land of Chaos. We four Sovereigns were almost killed!" Tyre seemed to have not recovered from the shock of the Chief God of Death, and his voice was a little hurried.
"An overgod? What's going on? " Dhaka was rather surprised. However, he didn't seem to be in contact with any of the peak overgods.
"An overgod with a Quintessence!" Tyre emphasized.
"What?!" Dhaka panicked. He finally realized the severity of the situation and exclaimed, "What's he doing in the Fringe?"
Tyre smiled bitterly and recounted everything to Dhaka in detail.
Dhaka's expression grew more and more grave as he listened to Tyre's description. After a while, he suddenly chuckled and said, "I know why he's going to the Fringe. Haha, so that's how it is. Dagmar, it seems like you won't have any hope of getting that thing …"
Dhaka laughed for a while before putting on a serious face and said, "Don't worry, the Overgod of Death's target isn't you guys. You don't have to worry about anything. Alright, let's take a break for now and wait for the Overgod of Death to settle his matters before we begin. Otherwise, with him in the Fringe, there will be many variables on both sides. "
After that, Dhaka explained to Tyre about the Quintessence Shard in Little Skull Han Hao's body.
After Dhaka finished, Tyre was shocked and said with jealousy, "Why are those two so lucky?!" After a short pause, Tyre calmly said, "One Brian is hard enough to deal with. That Han Hao has a Quintessence Shard in him. He'll be a disaster in the future!"
"You can't leak the news that Han Hao has a shard of godhood. Only Dagmar, Asser and I know about this. Once this news gets out, our relationship will be exposed immediately. Even now, due to my familiarity with the Fringe, there are people who are starting to suspect me. For the sake of our mission, we must be careful! "Dhaka said solemnly.
"I understand." Tyre nodded and said smilingly, "The Fringe is only so big. Logue also pointed out Han Hao to the Overgod of Death. I believe that when the Overgod of Death realizes that the others aren't his targets, he will naturally go after Han Hao."
"Well, we don't have to do that! As soon as Han Hao dies or the Overgod of Death leaves the Fringe, notify me immediately and we will proceed with the plan. Once this is over, you'll be in charge of the Fringe and I'll be in charge of the Godhunter Alliance. We'll have the chance to go to Aethernia! "said Dhaka.
Tyre nodded with a smile and chatted with Dhaka about the current situation for a while longer before cutting off the connection.
… …
Not too far away, a wisp of smoke quietly drifted into the distance. It was soundless and didn't have the slightest trace of life.
The wisp of smoke only took the form of Han Shuo a hundred miles away from Tyre. After half a month of observation, he finally confirmed Salas's guess. Tyre and Dhaka, the Hegemon of the Godhunter Alliance, were actually brothers. This shocked Han Shuo greatly.
If he hadn't made this discovery today, he would definitely be attacked by the two brothers when the war with the Godhunter Alliance started. The two brothers cultivated in the edict of destruction. Tyre was already the strongest Sovereign in the Fringe, while Dhaka was slightly stronger than him. If the two of them were to join forces, their strength would increase tremendously. They would probably be even more terrifying than the combined forces of Wasis, Ossora, Logue, and Salas.
Fortunately, with today's discovery, Han Shuo could make preparations in advance to avoid being attacked by the two brothers. Furthermore, by making use of the relationship between the two brothers, Han Shuo would be able to defeat them in one fell swoop.
Having made up his mind, Han Shuo immediately returned to Pandemonium.
The biggest problem he faced now wasn't the two brothers, but the Overgod of Death, Nestedt. Even though Han Shuo's strength had improved by leaps and bounds, he knew that he definitely wouldn't be a match for the Overgod of Death.
Since Logue had reported the name of Little Skull Han Hao to the Overgod of Death, his safety was no longer guaranteed. Given the Overgod of Death's abilities, he would definitely be able to find Han Hao. In order to prevent that from happening, Han Shuo had no choice but to protect Little Skull with all his might. And he had to do it quickly.
After arriving at Pandemonium as fast as he could, Han Hao summoned Little Skull and explained the dire situation to him. Then, Han Shuo said, "We have to think of a way. Otherwise, we won't be able to escape if the Overgod of Death sets his eyes on us!" After a short pause, Han Shuo said, "You said that you have fused with the Quintessence Shard. If the Overgod of Death were to stand beside you, would he know that you have the Quintessence Shard?"
"He should be able to," Little Skull nodded after pondering for a moment.
Han Shuo felt a headache coming on. He was certain that the Overgod of Death would be searching for those who cultivated in the edict of death that Logue had reported. Once he had scanned through every single one of them, he would definitely lock onto Han Hao. The Fringe was only so vast and the power of the Overgod of Death was so terrifying. It wouldn't be long before he came knocking on Han Shuo's door.
Although Han Shuo had laid down layers upon layers of demonic formations in the Pandemonium, he didn't think that it could withstand the visit of an Overgod who possessed the Quintessence. Han Shuo felt that this was a very difficult situation. He couldn't come up with a solution no matter how hard he tried. He had no idea how to avert the crisis Little Skull was in.
"Why don't I hide in other Dominions for a while and not return to the Fringe for the time being?" suggested Little Skull when he saw Han Shuo's anxious face.
"That's one solution. But it won't solve the root of the problem. If that Overgod of Death can't find his target in the Fringe and then finds out that you are not here, he will be certain that you have the Quintessence Shard. Once he is certain, things will get even more difficult! "said Han Shuo with a bitter smile. He scratched his head in frustration.
Little Skull didn't say anything else. He thought for a while and realized that there was really no way he could deal with the situation. Unless he and Han Shuo could improve their strength to the point where they could face the Overgod of Death head-on, there was no way they could deal with the Overgod of Death. Demonic arts couldn't be improved overnight. Han Hao, who had just fused with the Quintessence Shard, wouldn't be able to face the Overgod of Death in a short period of time.
Even if Han Hao had fully mastered the power of the Quintessence Shard, he would still die if he faced the Overgod of Death who possessed the Quintessence. The Little Skeleton couldn't come up with a solution no matter how much he thought about it. He hung his head, unable to come up with a solution.
"Let's brainstorm and come up with a solution as soon as possible!" Han Shuo took a deep breath and immediately sent a message to Bollands, Gilbert, Sanguinar, Scarlett, and the Five Elite Zombies who knew the secret of the Quintessence Shard. Han Shuo quickly explained the dire situation to the crowd. Then, in a grave voice, he said, "The situation is very dangerous. I really can't think of a solution for now. One person's power is limited and it might take some time for me to come up with a solution. We need to come up with a solution as soon as possible."
After listening to Han Shuo's narration, the crowd's mood turned heavy. They exchanged glances with Han Shuo and put on distressed faces, trying to come up with a solution.
However, an Overgod who possessed the Quintessence was a synonym for invincibility in this universe. Apart from other Overgods who also possessed the Quintessence, no living being could contend against them. Now that such a terrifying existence was coming and had locked onto Little Skull, there was no way they could fight it head-on. All they could do was focus on dodging.
Even if they were to leave the Fringe, as long as the Overgod of Death was certain that the Quintessence Shard was in Little Skull's possession, it would only be a matter of time before Little Skull's misfortune befell them. It would be incredibly difficult to come up with a solution to both the symptoms and the root of the problem …
It was too difficult. No matter how hard they thought about it, no one could come up with an idea that could solve the problem for a while. The day quickly passed. Occasionally, one or two seemingly good ideas would pop up in the middle of the day. However, none of them could withstand careful deliberation and were quickly rejected.
Gradually, the crowd became less and less talkative. While the others were still calm and collected, Gilbert was getting rather irritated. He kept saying that he might as well go all out against the Overgod of Death.
"If we could go all out, why would we wait for you to say anything?" Han Shuo bunched his brows and chided Gilbert.
"I've already died once anyway. At most, I'll just die again!" snorted Gilbert.
"That guy's forte is the power of the soul. If you die this time, you won't be able to preserve your soul temporarily like the last time. Once the brand on your soul is destroyed, I won't be able to resurrect you no matter how powerful I am. When that time comes, you're really done for! "snorted Han Shuo coldly as he shot a glance at Gilbert.
"Senior, now that you mention it, I suddenly remembered something. Can Han Hao separate his soul from his body like what Gilbert did back then? The Quintessence Shard has already fused with his bones. If he could attach his soul to another divine body, would he be able to hide from the Overgod of Death? "Bollands's eyes lit up. He seemed to have gained some inspiration from Gilbert's words.
Upon hearing this, Han Hao was also shocked. He asked Little Skull, Han Hao, "Since you've cultivated demonic arts, the form of your soul should be different from ordinary people. Can you separate your soul from your body?"
Little Skull seemed to have never thought of this question before. He silently gave it a try and nodded, "I think I can."
