At this moment, there was a strange atmosphere in the Cemetery of the Ancient Gods: the soldiers were busy, the generals were idle, and the big shots were nowhere to be seen.
Ever since the ancient beasts had all retreated, the situation had suddenly changed.
First of all.
The Human Emperor, Mermaid, and Three Ears, who were considered big shots, had joined hands and acted as if they were going to cause trouble. People thought that they would use their victory to defeat the Abandoned Children of God or the Children of God. Unexpectedly, they did not. They were like fireworks, disappearing after a moment of brilliance.
Second of all.
The Void Mage team, which was considered big shots and the strongest group in the Void, also disappeared.
In the beginning, they were all in a state of "losing" and protecting themselves. When the ancient beasts and the Abandoned Children of God really wanted to cause trouble, they easily "insta-killed" the invading army. One could imagine that this group of big shots was preparing to cause trouble. But what they did not expect was that nothing happened. They were also like fireworks, disappearing without a trace after a single explosion.
The third strange thing.
The ancient beasts had all migrated, and the puppet army had rapidly invaded. In the blink of an eye, they had become the strongest force.
Originally.
Everyone thought that the Void Mages would definitely cause trouble, or at least declare a bit of force. But they did not. The Void Mages who commanded the puppet army were very low-key, not even showing their faces. It was as if they had never won, nor did they have the attitude of being the strongest force.
The Cemetery of the Ancient Gods was a relatively independent place.
Whoever could occupy this place would control the bridge between the Void and the Void World.
The puppet army won.
The Void Mages had the upper hand, but they did not seem to have done anything.
Now.
The latest developments.
The Void Mage team and the puppet army were "at war". The Void Mages used the "Feather Coat of Chaos" to hide themselves, then hunted region by region, directly taking down small puppet armies. This kind of encroachment was not fast, but the Void Mages did not fail once, succeeding every time. Moreover, they did not target the Void Mages, only the puppet army controlled by the Void Mages.
There was a feeling.
The Void Mages did not want to start a war. They were more like the Ancestral Gods, forcing the Void Mages to leave bit by bit.
At this time.
It wasn't that the puppet army didn't retaliate, but when they attacked with all their might, they realized that only the middle and lower level Void Mages had attacked. The middle and upper level Void Mages hadn't moved at all. To put it simply, this was only the level of 'soldiers against soldiers'. The generals did not even make a move, let alone a decisive battle of 'kings against kings'.
To a certain extent.
Everyone knew why … they were all waiting, waiting for the enemy's' king 'to show himself.
The world of mages was different from the mortal world.
In the mortal world, once all the soldiers died, you would lose for sure. In the World of Mages, no matter how many soldiers were killed or injured, as long as the 'King' did not die, they would not lose. In the World of Mages, puppets could be recreated, lives could be revived, and warriors could be nurtured. Furthermore, all the King needed to do was to transfer a small part of his power to his soldiers and the soldiers would instantly transform into generals, commanders, or even a fake King.
Therefore …
The soldiers were very busy, so it was fine. Even if they lost a lot, it was fine. As long as the King was fine, he would be fine.
"This will turn into a war of attrition, Great Ninth."
"Yes."
"We can do our best to support them, but the Void World is a world of energy, they definitely have more resources. In the endless void, energy is' money '. In a war of attrition, the rich side will definitely win. It's not wise for us to do this. "The Void Mages were unwilling to do this. They instinctively felt that there was no chance of winning in a war of attrition.
Simply thinking about it, it was like using 'water' to attack the 'ocean'.
But …
"We have no choice, everyone." Great Ninth was a remnant of the Primordial Era. It had witnessed everything with its own eyes. "I discussed it with Marrosa, she discussed it with the Golden Fairy, and the Golden Fairy asked the Human Emperor for instructions. The conclusion is … the real victory and defeat, there is no strategy. "
"What do you mean?"
"We have done a lot of things in secret, and the Human Emperor has also done a lot of things in secret. But these are all just foreshadowing. In the end, we have to use our fists to defeat the enemy. The meaning of foreshadowing is only to let us find the enemy faster. If we can't even find the real enemy, then we don't know what target to aim at with our fists. "
"So we have to fight of attrition?"
"Yes, we have to. Marrosa told me that Kunpeng will go all out and provide us with resources to fight. But we must not use our strongest combat power. Marrosa told me that we have to be prepared for a crisis. Not only the Cemetery of the Ancient Gods, but also the Secret World of the Upper World, the Upper World, and the Lower World of the Void. There may be one or a group of people with extraordinary strength in any place. They may destroy our territory in an instant and slaughter some races. That kind of destruction can be compared to the destructive power of the Mad God. "
"…"
Hearing this, the Void Mages suddenly understood.
In the intelligence group's view, the Cemetery of the Ancient Gods was just a protection point. In fact, the intelligence group felt that the Void World was equally dangerous … because the Cemetery of the Ancient Gods was open.
The gate was already open.
No one was sure if the enemy had sneaked in.
Kunpeng provided the Feather Coat of Chaos to hide everyone's whereabouts and gain an advantage in hunting … Were the enemy fools and not prepared for it after so many years?
What if.
The enemy also had a magic weapon similar to the Feather Coat of Chaos. What if they had already sneaked into the Void?
"If you attack with all your strength, or even kill your way into the Void World. As long as there is chaos somewhere in the Void, you won't be able to split up. Even if you can, rushing back may be a conspiracy, a conspiracy to exhaust all of us. Therefore, we can't clash with the hidden enemy. It must be the enemy who shows up to deal with them. A battle of attrition is a kind of head-on contest. Any conspiracy is useless in a contest. "
"What if they don't show up?"
"Then we will take over the Cemetery of the Ancient Gods as a bridge. Do you think they will give in? "Da Jiushi asked.
Everyone understood immediately.
Now, dealing with the puppet army was just 'hunting' and not killing. After hunting, they would be sent back to Kunpeng for research. This' research 'was definitely part of the research, but the bigger purpose was to keep them for their own use.
In other words.
Now, everyone was keeping the 'enemy's soldiers' as their 'own soldiers'.
If the Void Mages didn't mind, then everyone wouldn't mind accepting it. If the other party couldn't stand it, they could only send stronger people to stop them. If soldiers couldn't fight soldiers, then the generals would definitely go. Similarly, the Void World would also send out generals. In the end, it would slowly become a state of king against king.
To be more direct.
Soldiers against soldiers.
Generals against generals.
Kings against kings.
There was no strategy to speak of. No matter which round you lost, you could lose in the end. Especially the last round, if you won in the previous round, you would still lose.
The main point was.
Regarding this' king 'round, no one wanted to be the first to go.
On the surface.
The Void Mages had already shown up. Shi Taisuo, Yue Taisuo, Jie Taijiang, Ming Taizang, and even Kunpeng's Great Curse Human Emperor had all shown up. However, was there really only this group of 'kings' in the Void World? No. In fact, the group of old people who had been living in the ordinary land, such as Shitai Shang and the others, their strength was also unknown.
Even the four clan leaders who showed up, who knew their true strength?
"Everyone, you must remember one thing. If you want to negotiate, you must first beat the other party to the ground, then you can talk. If the one who is beaten to the ground is us, then there is no negotiation. We can only wait for the other party to be merciful. Maybe we don't hate the Void World, but we must protect the Void World. "Da Jiushi's words had deep meaning.
The group of mages could hear that the Desolate Era was the result of 'listening to the enemy's mercy'.
If there was no victory, there would be no negotiation.
So.
Now was the time to fight for victory at all costs.
"Da Jiushi, how do we win the battle of the armies?" The mages also realized that this war would determine the next era. Whether the enemy wrote it or they wrote it, it would depend on whether they won this time.
If the enemy won.
It was possible that the era of equipment being king would end, and the Void World might enter an era of 'forbidden technology development'.
"No matter how many enemies there are, if we can 'take the enemy's resources to strengthen our army', we will win. This is the reason why Kunpeng is the main force in the battle of the armies. We don't know how many enemies there are, we really can't find out. However, if we can 'suck' the enemy's blood to replenish our strength, we will win. "Da Jiushi's words were also the words of Kunpeng's craftsmen.
Before 'generals against generals' and 'kings against kings', whoever could stabilize themselves and not collapse would win.
At the same time.
The Void Mages also knew deeply that the loss of the puppet army was a small matter, the enemy really wanted to take down their king.
Now.
They were faced with two choices:
One, maintain the status quo, and only use the puppet army to fight the Void Mages.
Two, send out stronger mages, and use the power of the generals to win.
Both choices were good and bad.
The former could compete for resources, and slowly weaken the Void. However, it could also encourage the growth of the Void, and nurture a dangerous enemy.
The latter could quickly calm the chaos, and gain an advantage in intelligence. However, this was the enemy's plan.
At this moment.
The Void Mages could not help but be surprised … That was not right. All along, the situation had been in their hands. A place like the Void was chaotic, and there were only a few days of peace. Why was the clearly 'weak and chaotic' Void so troublesome to fight against now? The earliest intelligence analysis, the previous world and the next world could not even work together to fight against the enemy.
However, now they were united.
Think about before.
The Upper Mortal world bullied the various races, causing the people of the Void and the Outer Mortal world to live in misery. They should have hated each other and could not be resolved. Why did it suddenly change, as if in order to deal with the enemy, they even forgot about 'hatred'?
"How's the analysis?"
"It's not good."
"What's not good?"
"Losses. We have a lot of puppet army, far more than this, and the enemy did not hunt and steal much. However, there's a very bad thing: no matter how small our losses are, it can't compare to the enemy's' zero 'losses. "
"Impossible. The puppet army is not weak, there's no reason why they can't kill their 'soldiers'. "
"Leaders, it's possible. However, they all have the Mark of Samsara. "
"…"
"The Human Emperor, he, he seems to have arranged it long ago. Whether it's a big battle or a small one, everything is going in the direction we least want."
"…"
