Chapter 939: Reasons

Fortunately, what Sui Xiong was worried about did not happen. After an intense battle, Yuslar did not manage to break through the defense of the Highest Tower after all. It was blocked about a mile away from the coastline.

This distance, in fact, was very close. For a war on Earth, it could almost be considered as a battle at the level of a face duel. But as a war on this world, a distance of a mile was enough to serve as a buffer for the two sides. There was no need to worry about overly drastic means.

Yuslar, being the famous Lord of the Abyss, should supposedly possess strength that was at least the equivalent to a weak Divine Power. But it came from the chaotic and evil world of the Abyss, to the Main Plane, which was inclined towards maintaining order and neutrality, thus putting it under great suppression. Also, at that moment, it had not descended as a powerful noumenon of itself. So in the face of the Highest Tower that was putting up a full resistance, it was comparably powerless. Regardless of its persistent roaring and continuous summoning of its men, it was simply impossible for it to take another step forward.

Streams of burning white light rays of positive energy were shooting out of the defense equipment of the Highest Tower, bombarding Yuslar’s body. Every stream of white light rays was controlled and released by the Legendary Masters. Even the great Lord of the Abyss was unable to fully withstand it. Even if it gave its best shot with this projected clone of itself and got it damaged, it was still unable to take another step forward.

Those demons that it summoned were dealt with by the mid- and high-level mages. Crackling sounds of various spells that had special effects on demons being thrown over could be heard. Every one of these spells was capable of killing one or more demons. Though Yuslar was very fast in its speed of summoning, the rate at which the mages were destroying was not the least slow as well.

Therefore, the situation gradually settled into an impasse.

Sui Xiong studied the situation of the two sides. And finally, he felt a little more relieved.

Within the Highest Tower, there was a massive magic pool that had been accumulated over the years, and almost all the spellcasters urgently mobilized to meditate in order to replenish the magic pool with whatever had been consumed from it. Judging from the current situation, they could probably last at least half a month with such an intensive war.

But was it possible for a clone of Yuslar to remain on Earth for half a month?

Of course it was impossible! Even if it was merely a clone, there was no way a Lord of the Abyss could possibly remain on the Main Plane for so long. The most would be a day and a night before it would be driven out by the repulsive force of the Main Plane. And within the next one hundred years, it could forget about taking another step on the Main Plane.

This was also based on the premise that Yuslar was very loyal and would always faithfully set out to fulfill whatever it had promised to do. Demons of the abyss were generally very easygoing, and they never served the ones who summoned them for long periods. Especially in situations when their efforts were not sufficiently rewarded, they would tend to lose interest very quickly. Then they would leave.

Inside the Highest Tower, the Legendary Masters were also discussing this issue.

“Don’t use too much force when attacking Yuslar. Don’t hit its vitals,” a mage who was highly specialized in the study of demons of the abyss repeated emphasized. “What we want to do is to drive it away, not provoke it. So long as it feels that it will not gain any advantage from us, it will lose interest and leave on its own. On the contrary, if we attack too forcefully and cause it any pain, it’s possible that it may be completely enraged. Then it will attack us with all that it’s god, or even possibly choose to self-destruct this clone... that would be a great threat!”

Although he was only a high-level mage who had yet to step into the Legendary Realm, he now had the highest commanding power in the whole Highest Tower. The group of legendary mages were all following his commands with due honesty.

In the world of the mages, knowledge was power. Knowledge would make one worthy of respect. Especially in such a situation, the one who mastered the most important knowledge would be the most respectable one.

“Luckily, we responded fast!” said a high-level mage who sent out a light stream of positive energy to kill a powerful demon that was charging towards him at high speed. To his companion beside him, he said, “If we are any later, it would have been terrible!”

“It’s impossible to be late. The warning and defense systems of the Highest Tower are not mere decorations. If the enemy had not been too strong this time, they would not possibly have charged to this distance.”

“It’s a pity that this time, the demon is just a projection and not its noumenon. Otherwise, we could’ve gotten some rare materials...”

“Don’t let your thoughts run wild. If it had been its noumenon, who knows how polluted the nearby seawater would have been!”

And beneath the surface of the sea, near the altar of skeletons, large batches of murlocs were still continuously being offered as sacrifices to enable the altar to grow larger and larger. The trident with two broken forks was glowing brighter and brighter.

A few elderly murlocs gazed at that trident, which was glowing with vigor, from afar, and their eyes reflected their relief.

“Soon! Very soon!”

“A god that truly belongs to us murlocs...”

“Our queen, you will return!”

Because of the pollution caused by the Lord of the Abyss, the entire surface of the sea was heavily obscured. Though more than 50 percent of the evil green fog had dispersed, even Sui Xiong had only noticed Yuslar, the Lord of the Abyss. He did not notice the existence of that altar at all.

This was the essence of the murlocs’ plan. They would sacrifice a large number of clansmen to summon the Lord of the Abyss, who would then attract the attention of everyone. This would be a good screen to cover up their real actions—this plan was made for them by the late God of Conspiracy.

Though the God of Conspiracy had fallen, many of the conspiracies that he had devised over the years did not fail following his fall. On the contrary, these plots were still in full operation or eventually launched.

The murlocs’”God-Making Plan” was one of the God of Conspiracy’s works.

This plan consisted of two key factors. The first was the right medium, and the second was the right opportunity.

In terms of medium, after the fall of the former Goddess of the Ocean, the remnants of that trident of the Sea King were seized by the God of Conspiracy. The divinity within this magical object was extracted by Sui Xiong and became the catalyst for the birth of the new generation of Goddess of the Ocean. But the noumenon of the magical object was not completely destroyed. The God of Conspiracy collected most of its shattered pieces and used some secret means to recast them. At this very moment, the shattered pieces became that long spear that was stuck into the altar of skeletons.

This thing retained most of the auras of many generations of former Goddesses of the Ocean. With it as the inducer infused with a large amount of vitality and belief, it was enough to unite the belief of the entire murloc race and create a whole new god.

Perhaps this god would be very weak, but backing her up would be the entire murloc race, the largest race on the Main Plane in terms of population. So long as she was given enough time, she would naturally grow up well.

What was more, when she appeared this time, she would be a god that truly belonged to the murloc race!

For this, the murloc race needed to prepare a large number of sacrifices. They also needed to find the right opportunity.

Of course, sacrifices were not the issue. The murlocs did not have much to boast of, but they were indeed wealthy in terms of population size. With eight to ten thousand murlocs dying to be used as sacrifices, the higher-ups of the murlocs did not even blink an eye.

But the problem lay with the right opportunity. The murlocs did not have a good reputation and had many enemies. If they wanted to create a god that belonged to them, they were bound to be attacked by swarms of enemies. They could only possibly succeed if they could find the opportunity that could attract the attention of their enemies, the opportunity that no one would ever notice.

And this great battle that affected the entire Main Plane and involved almost all the God Systems of the races, was the best opportunity!
