Why did the Void Wizard send out the puppet army to conquer the territory?
To gain the upper hand in intelligence.
The chaotic environment of the Graveyard of the Ancient Gods determined that … everyone's eyes were blind. If you wanted to see more, you had to have more eyes. If you were alone, you couldn't even see your surroundings clearly. The reason why the ancient beasts couldn't survive was because they were in a state of disunity and couldn't do good intelligence work. For example, whether the Void Wizard was strong or weak, whether he could be bullied, they guessed based on victory and defeat, but they were all wrong.
The Void Wizard also wanted to see Tang Shidao's action of persuading them to leave.
However.
Compared to the advantage of gaining the upper hand in intelligence, the Void Wizard would rather reveal some of his cards and gain the upper hand in intelligence.
Normally speaking.
When one's strength reached a certain level, no one would be a fool. By the same logic, if one lived long enough, he wouldn't be a fool. However, why did smart people still fall for it? The reason was simple, because the benefits were too great. In the mortal world, if a treasure was placed in front of a 20-year-old or an 80-year-old man, the result would still be brainless greed. If the elixir of immortality was placed in front of the commoners and the emperor, both of them would be fooled.
The Cemetery of the Ancient Gods was a trap.
It must be a trap.
Everyone knew it was a trap.
Why did so many smart and farsighted wizards still come here to gamble with their lives?
The reason was the forbidden spell.
Its attraction could be turned into a "halo of intelligence". No matter who it was, they would automatically ignore the risks and only see the benefits of obtaining the forbidden spell. Tang Shidao gave them a choice of two, either leave or die. This was also an unintelligent choice.
If they were strong, they would feel that they didn't have to choose. They would fight and win.
If they were weak, they would naturally choose the World of Samsara.
This had nothing to do with "intelligence and wisdom". Even if a weak ancient beast race had the highest intelligence in the Void, it could only choose one of the two like a fool. This was not a problem that could be solved by intelligence, just like the attraction of the forbidden spell could not be offset by intelligence. If you wanted the forbidden spell, you would come. If you didn't want the forbidden spell, you wouldn't come.
This was also a choice of two, it had nothing to do with being stupid.
Tang Shidao was sure that the Void Wizard would not give up the advantage of "intelligence", so they would definitely cooperate with him. In the eyes of outsiders, the Void Wizard had won. However, the Void Wizard himself didn't think so. Because in a battle between two sides, the side that revealed their trump card first would definitely be at a disadvantage. Unfortunately, the Human Emperor's bait was so delicious that they had no choice but to eat it.
After a discussion, the Divine Sons and Divine Daughters lowered their evaluation of the Void Realm. They believed that the Void Realm was weaker.
However …
What happened next was beyond everyone's expectations.
Suddenly.
The group of mages in the void 'disappeared'. They didn't really go missing. Instead, they used some kind of method to hide themselves. Why did he do that? In less than three days, he had an answer. On the third day after the disappearance of the Void Mages, a new piece of news spread … One of the puppet armies had also disappeared.
That's right.
Just like the Void team, they disappeared without a trace.
But.
The difference between the two was that the Void team was made up of mages, while the puppets were controlled by humans. In other words, the Sorcerer's disappearance could mean that he had gone into hiding, but the Marionette's disappearance could only mean that he had lost contact with it or had been destroyed. Losing contact and being destroyed were both bad endings. The Void Wizards were also very anxious, because they knew that this disappearance was the result of a hunt.
At this moment.
Everyone could guess that the disappearance of the puppet army had something to do with the disappearance of the Void Mages.
Another day later.
New news.
Another three small puppet armies had disappeared at the same time.
It had to be said.
The Void Wizards' puppet army was very large, and there were a lot of them. To be able to smoothly take over all the territories of the ancient beast horde, it was obvious that the army was huge. However, such a loss was still very painful for them. One had to know that this was just the beginning, far from the end. They had lost so much in just a few days. How could they survive in the future?
The strangest thing was …
"How did they hide?"
"It's very difficult to hide in a chaotic environment. You can expose your whereabouts at any time. The Void Mages are too stable. Didn't they reveal any traces? "
"What I find strange is, how did they know that the puppet army had no one leading it?"
"Yeah, we didn't even do a good job in terms of intelligence. How could they know so clearly?"
The Void Wizards gathered to discuss, but they had no answers to these questions. After the Void Mages disappeared, no one could find their whereabouts. If it was the Void or the Void World, this wouldn't be too strange. It was easy to avoid outsiders if they were good at concealment, unless the difference in strength was too great. However, the Graveyard of the Ancient Gods was different from other places. This was a chaotic environment.
In a chaotic environment, casting spells wouldn't go smoothly. Even if it went smoothly, the environment would constantly change, slowly changing your original settings.
Another five days.
At the same time, the news of fourteen small puppet armies' disappearing 'spread.
At this time.
The various factions finally obtained something useful. This time, there were two small teams of Void Sorcerers who had also 'disappeared'. One of the Void Sorcerers tried his best to send back a message, which was only four words: Feather Raiment of Chaos.
It could be seen.
It was attacked so suddenly that it couldn't even send out any more messages.
After receiving the news of the 'Feather Coat of Chaos', the Void Wizards began their new plan. They believed that it was an ancient artifact, or it was a forbidden ability. The Void Wizards were using this' power 'to deal with their puppet army. They had to find out what it was.
"Find out at all costs."
"This will only be possible if we send people to infiltrate the puppet army. Do we need to do this?"
"Yes, we have to take the risk. In just a few days, the puppet army took down so many of our fighting forces. It will be too late if we don't counterattack. Also, find out why the Void Wizards suddenly attacked. Between us, the relationship between us and the enemy shouldn't be clear yet. "
"Yes."
The Void Wizards were still in hiding, but they had already started their operation.
On the contrary.
The Void Wizards showed up at the beginning. Because they didn't get any response, they went back into hiding and started their own operation.
Five days later.
Because the Void Wizards sent people to infiltrate the puppet army to prepare for intelligence work, they really did collect some information.
However, the information wasn't good.
"… Above, leaders, the intelligence agents we sent have all disappeared … Well, not to mention missing, they were attacked by the Void Wizards and were either killed or captured. The relevant information has also been sent back. The Feather Coat of Chaos isn't an ancient artifact, nor is it a forbidden ability. It's just an ordinary mass-produced artifact. "
"A mass-produced artifact?"
"Yes, leaders. Every Void Wizard has a set, and there are even a few backups. This artifact has no offensive or defensive abilities. It only has one effect: to constantly change its characteristics and become one with the environment. That's why Void Mages are able to 'conceal themselves' and not even be found. "
"Become one with the environment? It can't be, we haven't even succeeded in researching this technology. How long has it been since the Void Wizards entered the Graveyard of the Ancient Gods? It hasn't even been a few years. "
"Yes, it hasn't been long since they entered."
"Who invented it?"
"I don't know, but we have a suspect."
"Kunpeng?"
"Yes, we all suspect that it's Kunpeng's technology. If we want to investigate, we have to apply for special support. We have to borrow the power of the 'Gods'. Otherwise, we alone can't trace the source of this technology. The Void is too far away, we can't reach it. "
"Okay, we'll ask."
After a test, the Void Wizards found out that the Feather Coat of Chaos was a mass-produced artifact. Everyone was a little disheartened.
In fact.
The Void World was very short on materials, so technology was very important. However, even so, they were still defeated by the Void Wizards in terms of 'technology'. At this time, they no longer doubted that only Kunpeng had this kind of technology. To create a brand-new thing in such a short time, and it was a technology that no one else could do, only Kunpeng could do it.
About ten days.
The puppet army was constantly attacked, and their losses were increasing.
During this time, the Void Wizards had borrowed the power of the 'Gods' to investigate the Feather Coat of Chaos. Of course, this also sacrificed a lot of manpower, because Kunpeng's intelligence was not so easy to spy on. If a group of important chess pieces were not killed, they would not be able to find out. The sad thing was, after asking around, they found that … it was a waste of manpower, a huge waste.
The technical information of the Feather Coat of Chaos was not top secret at all. The upper echelons of the Kunpeng Alliance basically knew about it.
If it was delayed for a year or two.
Those secret chess pieces might even be told voluntarily, and there was no need to expose their identities at all. They had to sacrifice themselves to spy on it successfully.
"So …"
"The Feather Coat of Chaos has been studied since the Void Wizards entered the Cemetery of the Ancient Gods. It is the work of the Kunpeng craftsmen. Not only do they mass-produce it, but they also have a lot of it. They also have an emergency evacuation plan. If the Void Wizards do not fight well and the Void is lost, they are prepared to use the Feather Coat of Chaos to 'shelter' a group of seeds to leave and let them enter the Cemetery of the Ancient Gods to live and fight again. "
"Yes. These people, have they thought so far ahead? "
"There's one more thing."
"There's more?"
"Yes, leaders, we also found out about another piece of news. It is said that the craftsmen of Kunpeng have a plan a long time ago called the 'Anti-Psionic Spirit Coffin' technology. "
"What's that, a spirit coffin?"
"Yes, Kunpeng has already mass-produced this kind of thing. We found out that the Anti-Psionic Spirit Coffin itself comes from a technology called the 'Iron Spirit'. It is a reverse technology. The Iron Spirit is a kind of armor made of Source Iron. It is specially provided for wizards who only have a 'Psionic Body' as a body. The Anti-Psionic Spirit Coffin is the opposite. It is used to 'imprison' Psionic Bodies. "
"…"
Hearing this, the leaders of the Void Wizards' teams all understood.
This Anti-Psionic Spirit Coffin was used to deal with the Void Wizards.
The Void Wizards were all Psionic Bodies.
To the Void Wizards, the Void Wizards were 'ghosts', the embodiment of death. The Iron Spirit Coffin provided a body for the 'ghosts', and the Anti-Psionic Spirit Coffin provided a prison for the 'ghosts'. This information also explained why the Void Wizards who were attacked could not return, and why no one escaped.
It was because the other party already had something to deal with.
Everyone also believed that the captured Void Wizards would not be idle. They would definitely be studied by the craftsmen of Kunpeng in order to create more effective weapons against them.
All this time.
The Void Wizards all thought that they were the ones doing the work, and the Void Wizards were just fooling around.
So.
No!
They had already been guarding against the invasion of the Void World long before the Cemetery of the Ancient Gods was opened.
They were not the ones who were prepared.
It was the Void.
It was Kunpeng.
