Chapter 1222: Chapter 478 The End of the Neutral Forces_3
While those forces might choose to yield here in Zhou Tian’s case, it does not mean they would do so elsewhere. At the very least, given their strength, they lacked the power to make those Deities wary.
Therefore, it was almost certain that once those Deities conceived the idea of consolidating those forces, they would accomplish this task through force if necessary. And while they had no means against Zhou Tian, dealing with Monsters not within the Human Emperor Realm was different. Even if it meant destroying some of the environment, as long as they could Kill their Targets, they would have achieved their purpose.
And one could imagine that once those Deities truly initiated their attacks on those neutral forces, considering the power of those forces, how could they resist their Invasion? Thus, once targeted by the Deities, it was destined that these forces would not fare well.
As expected, without any surprises, once those Deities took Action, one after another, those forces were quickly taken down by them. And barring any Accident, it was believed that if the Deities continued this way, very soon, most of the forces in the Main Plane would be Annexed by them using this method.
However, Zhou Tian could not possibly allow Zhou’s Enemies to develop unchecked. Therefore, just as those Deities were about to Annexe most of the neutral forces in the Main Plane, Zhou Tian hastily initiated Actions.
Even if Zhou Tian did not understand the Deities’ intentions, he would instinctively attempt to stop their Actions. After all, Zhou Tian was well aware of the formidable Power that could be formed once a large number of Monster Forces Merged.
Thus, even without knowing the thoughts of the Deities, once Zhou Tian saw them Annexing neutral forces, he could not sit idly by. Because Zhou Tian knew, if those forces Annexed a significant amount of Territory, the strength of that named Human Emperor might catch up to him. And once the Human Emperor’s strength caught up, it would not be as easy for Zhou Tian to repel the Human Emperor as it was now.
Once the Human Emperor’s power approached Zhou Tian’s, with the assistance of the Deities and NPCs, Zhou Tian was genuinely worried that he would be powerless to Resist the Opponent’s attacks. And in this Combat, if Zhou Tian ended up completely at a Disadvantage, there was no doubt that he could Defeat due to the Enemy’s power.
So, even though Zhou Tian had once again repelled the Opponent’s attack, this was not sufficient reason for him to allow the opponent to continue growing. Any Action that might let the Opponent grow in power, Zhou Tian would inevitably intervene. In such a scenario, Zhou Tian would not simply watch as the Opponent Expanded territory.
Therefore, when Zhou Tian discovered that those Deities had begun to Take Action against the neutral forces, he did not hesitate and promptly joined in the Action alongside them.
Either stop those Deities from reclaiming those neutral forces, or Zhou Tian would also Annex said neutral forces. At that time, Zhou Tian had only those two choices; otherwise, if he allowed the Opponent to expand his power unchecked, Zhou Tian would find it very hard to Guarantee that he could Resist an Enemy who had become stronger.
Consequently, driven by the Deities and with Zhou Tian also initiating Action, the days of those once carefree neutral forces rapidly became extremely difficult.
Indeed, this situation could only be blamed on the forces themselves, as neutrality does not always Equate to safety. Usually, if two opposing forces are equally matched and engaged in fierce Combat, they would indeed not easily provoke neutral forces to avoid forcing them to the Enemy Camp. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
But to maintain neutrality, not all possess the qualifications or Abilities.
Firstly, to maintain neutrality, one must ensure that the two opposing forces are genuinely fighting, not some minor Conflict, but a battle leaving no time to clean up. Secondly, to maintain neutrality doesn’t mean being stronger than the fighting forces, but at least not significantly weaker; otherwise, if the opponent doesn’t need much effort and can just send a few Minor Monsters to kill you, then claiming neutrality is tantamount to seeking death.
So, not everyone has the capacity to maintain neutrality. Not choosing sides might seem like the right choice in the short term. However, when the two opposing forces eventually have time, regardless of whether they have eliminated their Opponents, those neutral forces will certainly become their Targets.
As a result, precisely because those Deities had devised such a plan, those neutral forces became the Hunting target of Zhou Tian’s camp.
No matter whether Zhou Tian harbored ill will towards those neutral forces, once those Deities took Action, he would inevitably have to Take Action against those neutral forces whether he wanted to or not. Thus, as both sides simultaneously set their sights on those neutral forces, their days naturally became difficult.
Those forces could originally protect themselves because Zhou Tian and those Deities were in a standoff. Now that both Zhou Tian and the Deities were acting against those neutral forces, it naturally meant that those neutral forces had unwittingly become a piece of fat anyone could bite off, and facing attacks from any one Camp they could hardly cope; as they now faced the Siege of Two Major Camps, they were utterly incapable of Resistance.
In the end...
One by one, forces were continuously Annexed, and with a tacit understanding not to engage in Battles, relying on their power, they completed all their Actions, leaving only three forces remaining in the Main Plane.
