Chapter 1232: Chapter 482: Demigods Alliance
Zhou Tian’s disparity in strength with those two demigods was so great that, after he killed one using his own powerful strength, he did not find the outcome surprising, as if it was a matter of course for him to kill that demigod at the time.
However, if Zhou Tian was not surprised by that result, then the surviving demigod was nearly scared out of his wits upon seeing Zhou Tian’s performance.
Too strong.
Although the demigod had sensed Zhou Tian’s condition after a few exchanges and knew that Zhou Tian was far stronger than they had initially thought, the sight of Zhou Tian killing his companion with overpowering strength right in front of him still filled the demigod with fear.
What to do now?
Although they had not compared their strengths directly, the surviving demigod, being of the same rank, did not believe he was much stronger than his fallen peer. Given their equal standards in strength, since Zhou Tian could easily kill his companion, he could naturally do the same to him.
And when the demigod suddenly realized the vast difference in strength between himself and Zhou Tian, how could he possibly accept that reality? ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
However, no matter how hard it was to accept that reality, facing the threat from Zhou Tian, the demigod had no choice but to respond accordingly at that moment.
Combat was certainly out of the question; the strength Zhou Tian had shown was simply beyond his resistance. This was while Zhou Tian had no intention of taking action against him; otherwise, given Zhou Tian’s demonstrated strength, had Zhou Tian wished to kill him, he likely would have been dead for quite some time by now.
Given the circumstances at the time, even though the demigod knew of Zhou Tian’s intentions, he could only act according to Zhou Tian’s plans. After witnessing his peer’s death at Zhou Tian’s hands, even though he knew what Zhou Tian wanted him to do, the demigod still had to head towards the Ancient Ruins Space where his former comrades were located.
It was quite regrettable for the other party, but the demigod wanted to survive. Now, under Zhou Tian’s coercion and for that glimmer of hope, the demigod had no choice but to drag the other demigods he knew into the water with him. Under those circumstances, under Zhou Tian’s pressure, the demigod had to hurry towards other Ancient Ruins Spaces.
Consequently, with the demigod leading the way, Zhou Tian no longer needed to worry about being unable to find the positions of those demigods. Based on the situation at the time, if everything went smoothly, Zhou Tian would soon be able to track down each of his former opponents one by one. And given Zhou Tian’s current powerful strength, if those demigods were to confront him now, their chances of survival were truly slim.
In fact, the situation indeed turned out to be not much different; once Zhou Tian took action, he encountered and overpowered all the demigods along the way. Under Zhou Tian’s formidable attacks, almost all the demigods who met him met with a deadly end.
However, as the demigod led the way, Zhou Tian succeeded in killing most of the demigods, but at that point, he encountered some obstacles.
In the beginning, these demigods, even after learning of Zhou Tian’s arrival, could not have possibly imagined that the situation would turn out as it was now. And by the time they reacted, Zhou Tian had already successfully killed many of their members. Under those circumstances, in addition to being shocked by Zhou Tian’s powerful strength, that group of demigods inevitably had to react at that moment.
If they allowed Zhou Tian to continue unchecked, the group of demigods dared not imagine the immense losses they would sustain. Thus, to avoid even greater losses, the demigods needed to do something at that time.
What should they do?
Fleeing was certainly not an option, for if they were to run now and move quickly enough to leave the Ancient Ruins Space before the demigod could find them, they could indeed save their lives. However, first off, it was a result they found unacceptable; under such circumstances, those demigods were not willing to become homeless strays.
Secondly, and most importantly, leaving their Ancient Ruins Space meant they would lose their foundations. Although the demigods’ dependence on their territories was not as evident as that of the monsters, they could not afford to lose their foundation either.
Because, being mortals rather than gods, the demigods still had material needs for both improving their strength and living day-to-day. If they were to flee now, they might ensure their safety in the short term, but once they left their Ancient Ruins Space, the absence of a territory to supply them with various materials would make life difficult for them.
Of course, those demigods could attack and take over other Ancient Ruins Spaces, and with their strength, conquering a few should not pose a problem. However, doing so could also bring other troubles down the line.
