Apostles were usually divided into three categories: advanced, intermediate, and beginner.
The strength of an apostle had nothing to do with their level, the length of time they followed the apostle, and the degree of loyalty. As the most important servant of the gods, the classification of apostles was only related to one thing: contracts!
Simply put.
The more contracts an apostle accepted, the easier it was to keep it a secret. The more secrets they kept, the more secrets they would know. Therefore, the more contracts they signed, the higher their level. The more powerful an apostle was, the more important they were. Most of the time, powerful apostles were not willing to accept too many contracts. This had nothing to do with loyalty. Apostles who were powerful themselves also needed their own secrets. The gods could understand this.
On the other hand.
Without the protection of many contracts, the gods would not share too many skills, nor would they send out special secret missions.
Compared to the normal situation.
Tang Shidao's apostles had two more levels: manager-level and off-staff.
The manager-level apostles were Xiao Jin, Elven Empress, Marrosa, and a few others who had the power to make decisions. Blind Black Tortoise, Chou Qinglong, Chou Zhuque, Li Baihu, and Mo Qilin, who only stayed in the sacred beast's home, also belonged to this level. Later, Jin Yuliu and Jin Yuli also joined this list. They commanded advanced apostles in different places, and advanced apostles commanded intermediate and beginner apostles.
Another type.
Off-staff level. These apostles belonged to the 'uncontracted' type. In the entire void, only Tang Shidao allowed such apostles to exist.
Under the circumstances of no contract, no gods could trust apostles and would not let them do things. Even between mages in the Mage Network, they would not do missions together without contracts. Therefore, most gods would only accept manager-level apostles at most. They would not accept uncontracted apostles.
Different from other gods.
Tang Shidao accepted such apostles, and there were a lot of them. These apostles were not under Tang Shidao's name, but under another identity: Present Shadow.
To be precise.
The off-staff apostles did not know the name Present Shadow. Tang Shidao did not mention it to anyone. The off-staff apostles only knew that the person they were under was called 'Undead Vessel'. A human-shaped shadow formed by Void Soil, a shadow that would never be destroyed.
Because there was no contract, the off-staff apostles did not share much.
But that was not important.
Because they didn't care … the external apostles themselves were extremely powerful. Some of the members had very strange identities, and some were even the cornerstone elders of a small race. They didn't need Tang Shidao to share his magical power and skills. They only needed a Divine Master who couldn't die and wouldn't order them around. In principle, the reason why non-permanent apostles joined the ranks of apostles was to create magic weapons for other apostles.
Source Iron Magic Equipment.
The believers of the Tang faction had the priority to purchase, and they also had the priority to purchase other magic artifacts.
The apostles did not need to buy it.
Apostles could borrow it directly. If they lost it, they would have to compensate for some materials. Similarly, non-permanent apostles also had this benefit. They could directly borrow the works of other apostles. What reassured them even more was that Tang Shidao never asked them to leave their clans, nor did he ask them to expose their identities to show their support, nor did he ask them to carry out dangerous missions.
The external apostles did not seem like soldiers or mercenaries. Instead, they seemed like a group of special friends.
Only Marrosa knew how many external apostles Tang Shidao had. Even Xiao Jin and the Elven Empress had never asked.
Under normal circumstances.
The external apostles provided information at most, and they basically did not appear to participate in battles. Therefore, everyone in the void knew that the idiot Human Emperor had a group of non-permanent apostles without contracts, but they never knew who these people were. In the eyes of the leaders of the various clans, the non-permanent apostles were simply a group of people who could not be trusted.
Now, the ancient beasts had joined forces with the source beasts and external beasts.
The three parties had joined forces.
The war had also begun.
Now, the believers and apostles of the Tang faction had used all their strength and ruthlessly stabbed the three parties together. However, the mysterious external apostles had not done anything yet. It seemed that they had failed to live up to the Human Emperor's trust in them.
To be honest.
Now, the leaders of the various clans wanted to see what this group of non-permanent apostles could do. They wanted to know their identities.
But everyone was disappointed.
Nothing!
Nothing at all!
None of the external apostles of the Human Emperor had shown up. Not a single one. They were like illusory reflections of the moon in the water. They did not exist at all. Even when the God Spirit Master faced the threat of the three major forces, they still hid in the dark and lived their own lives. It was as if they did not care about the life or death of their master.
Seeing this result, everyone was happy … The Human Emperor had finally done something stupid.
He had finally been blind for once and had invested in the wrong group of people.
No matter what.
The material war and equipment war had begun. Di Chen and Di Hao could not do nothing. They had to fight back. The source beasts and external beasts were the same. Not only did they want the Human Emperor to fall, but they also wanted the Iron Master and Iron Spirit Master's plan to end. Even if they did not end it, they wanted to greatly disrupt its progress. They would cooperate with whatever the ancient beasts wanted to do, as long as the void was not disturbed.
The three parties secretly selected a large number of experts and prepared to launch a surprise attack against the Kunpeng alliance.
As soon as they contacted.
Things went surprisingly smoothly.
The Kunpeng alliance was launching an invasion against the deep void. The deep void side agreed without hesitation.
"The Human Emperor has so many enemies." Di Chen could not help but laugh when he heard the report from the clan representative. This time, the deep void side did not have any additional conditions and directly agreed to cooperate. They were willing to make way for the source beasts and let the Whirlpool army enter smoothly. However, the deep void side did not allow the Whirlpool army to occupy it.
Once the attack was completed, the source beasts would have to leave.
They would not lead the wolf into the house.
"I can persuade them, but we need to pay a price, such as a large number of magic materials." Bai Cang Qing was not taking the opportunity to blackmail them. The Whirlpool army would never work for nothing. The source beasts respected strength and lived in the extremely dangerous Origin Energy Sea. They would not act without benefits. The Whirlpool was not a kingdom. No one could order anyone.
"No problem." Di Chen did not care. The ancient beasts had a strong foundation.
"I can also invite the external beast army to invade. I don't need magic materials, but I need some magic weapons. If there are no benefits, they won't take action. " Luo Jie was said to be the representative of the Outer Void Realm. In fact, the Outer Void Realm was not a kingdom. There were countless factions. If he wanted these "lords" to act, it would be impossible without benefits.
"Yes, but it depends on how much you can do." Di Chen was not an idiot. Attacking the Kunpeng alliance was just a means. It could not always be a losing business.
No matter how strong the foundation was, it could not be wasted.
There must be benefits in war.
After all, the Kunpeng alliance controlled the largest and most profitable business in the Void: experience stones.
Di Chen did not have confidence in wasting resources.
"In terms of strength, we have an absolute advantage. We also have an advantage in resource reserves. However, this attack on the Kunpeng alliance must gain benefits. You should know that this emerging force is very rich. They do not lack supplies and equipment. If they can capture a group of people and let the Human Emperor ransom them, they can also exchange for a large sum of money. "Di Chen was an ancient beast. He still had the habit of preying on the enemy.
"What if the Human Emperor doesn't exchange?" Bai Cang Qing doubted that this kind of blackmail would work. The stronger ones with higher status did not care about the life and death of the weak.
"He will. If he is not willing to pay, I have more ways to deal with him. "
"Rumor has it that he does not care about the Kunpeng alliance."
"Yes. However, if the Kunpeng alliance is in trouble, he must take care of it. Otherwise, the team will be disbanded. He does not participate, but the bird and the spirit are involved. He cannot escape. Most importantly, he has the title of one of the Ten Emperors. He cannot retreat. "Di Chen had seen through everything.
Once the plan was launched, success was inevitable.
The Kunpeng alliance was helpless against the sudden attack of the source beasts and Outer World beasts. The difference in strength, coupled with the secret guidance of the team in the deep void, made it easy to deal with the Kunpeng alliance. It was impossible to start a full-scale war. This kind of fixed-point attack had a 100% chance of success.
The only thing that was not happy was.
Once Di Chen gave the order, the alliance dragged on for half a month before starting to act. There was no important reason. The leaders were discussing the distribution of benefits … That's right, the Kunpeng alliance's territory had not been conquered yet, but the leaders had quarreled for half a month about the distribution of benefits. Bai Cang Qing and Luo Jie urged a few times, but they understood. Lord mode groups were all like this.
Each leader was making plans for themselves, so it was difficult to act quickly.
Finally.
After Di Chen and Di Hao took the initiative to give up some benefits, the surprise attack plan began smoothly.
There was no reaction from the outside world.
When the largest scale of the surprise attack began, everything was carried out without a sound or trace.
At this time, the people outside were puzzled. Why did the ancient beasts not do anything? Could it be that they were scared by the Kunpeng alliance's strongest army? There was no reason. In terms of overall strength, the ancient beasts were much stronger.
"Your Excellency Di Chen, can we not participate at all?" The leader of the intelligence team, Eagle Sentinel, was puzzled.
"Yes. It is not that I do not trust you. It is more beneficial for the source beasts and Outer World beasts to take care of themselves. They come from different places. No matter how powerful the assassin Marrosa is, it is impossible for her to find out information. This time, even the leader of the deep void does not know. He only knows the target before the attack. "Di Chen did things without leaving any loopholes.
To be honest.
He could not completely trust the intelligence team. After all, the beasts were not united. There were pawns in the intelligence team.
Although letting the source beasts and Outer World beasts lay out their plans would be out of control.
However, it was absolutely confidential.
Di Chen motioned for the intelligence team to withdraw. At this moment, he seemed to see the panicked expression of the Human Emperor. Once the Kunpeng alliance was attacked, his plan to invade the deep void would be interrupted. After ascending to the position of one of the ten emperors, dying in the first battle would be the heaviest slap in the face.
Chi Xiao and those bastards obviously did not want to intervene, but they stood on the side to scare people.
This time, I will let all of you know that no conspiracy is useful. No skill or resources are useful. Only the fist is the hardest rule. After the surprise attack, you will understand how terrifying the three of us are when we join forces.
One day.
Two days.
Three days.
Di Chen, who was waiting for the good news, was stunned. Where are they?
Cheers of victory?
Or the news of the failure of the surprise attack?
Any bit of information would have been fine. What was going on now?
Where are they?
Where is the news?
The surprise attack in the deep void was silent. There was no news of the Kunpeng alliance being attacked. They were still invading the deep void as usual.
"Eagle Sentry, you go and find out."
"Yes."
Di Chen did not know what went wrong.
After another day, he knew.
"Eagle Sentry, only you came back?" Di Chen saw that there was only one intelligence officer left and immediately realized that something was wrong.
"They did not come back." The eagle sentry did not know what to report now.
"What do you mean?"
"We were attacked." The eagle sentry tried to get rid of the chill. "Our numbers, strength, skills, equipment, fighting habits, physique, blood, and even our weaknesses and shortcomings were known by the other party. That feeling, they knew us better than we knew ourselves. We did not have the power to fight back. In less than ten breaths, we were all destroyed. "
"You …"
"We were let go. Madam Marrosa wanted me to convey a message. Thank you for your 27 source beast teams and 56 Outer World beast teams. We are very satisfied with these materials. "
"…"
