Andre might be able to argue with the Lord about other things, but when it comes to artistic talent, he now isn’t even worthy of carrying the Lord’s shoes. Whatever the Lord says goes. Count Bai of White Mountain, about to destroy his own painting, heard the Lord say:
"There’s no need for that. Your emotions are at their fullest right now. Even though the technique is somewhat cliché, at least the emotion is transmitted effectively. Reflect a bit more. Once you’re finished, come find me—I have something for you to do."
-----------------
"What happened just now?"
At the launchpad of the sunship, Murphy reactivating God’s Scepter, asked:
"Has the projection of the Star Realm been restored?"
"Barely a little. It’s all because of that damn Master of Hunting causing chaos, expanding his Divine Kingdom in the material world, which directly led to the collision between the boundary of Subspace and the material world. You both are fine since your systems are complete, but the main body of Star Realm was shattered long ago and couldn’t withstand such interference."
Endless Mannis harshly complained:
"I nearly got thrown into a dead star just now. Thankfully, I reacted quickly, but what exactly happened during the time I was ’offline’? Why did the Master of Hunting just die suddenly?
His combat power in Subspace Battlefield wasn’t top-notch; except for bullying Vam, he can’t defeat a new god casually. Yet in the material world, that guy was absolutely invincible.
Could there be mighty warriors in the material world?"
"Invincible, yet there are enemies above."
Murphy, in a good mood, said jokingly:
"Perhaps that guy was too arrogant, which led to ’heavenly strike.’ A Light Arrow left by the Creator hit his forehead, causing him to be half-paralyzed before being quickly dealt with by the Lord and his men."
"You’re bluffing, saying it’s a Light Arrow left by the Creator. Why not say the Creator himself came by?"
Mannis didn’t believe at all, saying:
"Wait till I get back into the time network and check the ’surveillance’ to find out."
"Hold on, help me confirm a location first."
Murphy said:
"Help me check where the missile that shot down the sunship came from. I suspect it’s an important base for Dusk."
"Ah, that’s easy."
Endless swiftly combed through time and several seconds later projected a region at the boundary between the Dark Mountain Range and Grey Desert into Murphy’s view, saying:
"Right here!
It’s an underground abyss leading to Dark Territory. Following the waves of time looking over there shocked me. Those guys discovered a Golden Era relic underground, seemingly a place where Edenites hid stuff back then. The missile was launched from there, among many other things they excavated.
Quite a few Dusk members are busy there now, and it seems they plan to evacuate! Quickly, send a message to Lord Paryen, have him get people to destroy it!"
"Evacuate? Where are they planning to go?"
Murphy, while entering the coordinates Mannis provided into the Divine Scepter Launchpad, initiated the launch decision again. The moment the message was sent, it turned into [-1:1], and the Lord’s query was transmitted through the vibration of the Blood Crystal Stone. Murphy activated the Crystal Stone saying to the other side:
"It’s an important Dusk base, underground at the edge of the Grey Desert. They excavated a military depot under the Eden District Management Committee. The missile was launched from there—I intend to level it!"
"Is this a declaration of war?"
The Lord asked:
"Is it worth using a precious Creator’s Light Arrow for this?"
"There are plenty of God’s Scepters, enough for me to waste one today. Besides, it can’t be considered a waste. Mannis told me that if the weapons there were launched, they could wash all major cities from the Goldenrod Kingdom to Nordtof.
If concentrated, even the dragon-borns’ kingdom would suffer.
Thus, this ’harmless processing’ of Eden’s relics is absolutely necessary; we can’t allow Dusk to continue playing with things they don’t understand."
Murphy explained sternly:
"As for declaring war... no, my war with Dusk began long ago. This is just showing them the retribution of their misdeeds. Next, we will enter a hide-and-seek game.
They better pray they hide well.
Once discovered, the Sword of Damocles, hanging over everyone’s head, will punish them. But Lord, you know, they deserve this!"
"Hmm."
The Lord responded, and the next moment, the decision count became [1:2].
The resolution passed!
"Buzz"
The previous process played out again in the planet’s relative stationary orbital weapons depot.
seconds later, the second black Light Arrow descended from the sky, but this time, aside from those powerful Star Diviners observing this scene, there were no more ripples.
Like the inconsequential ripples caused by a deity’s fall, soon drawn into history becoming embers beneath shadows.
-----------------
"The Slave Master faction is finished. Forming it took nearly two years of actual action, not to mention the covert groundwork in the Eternal Abyss, yet Murphy destroyed it in just two minutes...
What terrifying news.
The Creator God chose this decisive, non-negotiable hard stance to declare war on us, and to my horror, I find myself not on the side of the victors.
Therefore, Honorable Monk Leader, considering my shaky legs now, is it too late to jump ship? Do you think if I ask about reconciliation now, he would agree?"
"Don’t joke, Scholar, Mr. Morphy will only laugh heartily while piercing the necessary evil into your heart."
Another voice responded, saying:
"However, direct action has never been our plan, thus the might of the Creator’s Sword, though great, can’t harm us. Now, there’s worse news: the effort to unite other Chaos Shadow forces failed. The Master of Hunting’s painful example proved the material world is still protected by the Creator.
Those shadows within chaos sensed the danger.
They won’t help us anymore. Next, we can only lead the world’s dusk alone.
If you want to jump ship, then now is the best time."
"I’m just joking, don’t mind me. Let me bring you some good news instead. Remember the ’Life Greenhouse’? I want to announce to you, Honorable, the time of ’Great Revival’ is near at hand.
Once we clear away the twisted jungle of this erroneous era, we can walk into the warm dusk and open the greenhouse in the tranquil night, restarting the Era.
The even better news is, let us now forget the uncontrollable Black Disaster and the proven failures of Ratman—we already have better choices.
And you?
After terrifying me with two bad news, don’t you have any good news to encourage me?"
"Good news, yes."
The Monk Leader smiled, saying:
"One of my collaborators also unfortunately died in this long day, but her demise showed me a possibility we’ve always ignored, and I suddenly realized we’ve been overlooking the legend stories beneath the sun.
I’m about to embark on a new attempt; if all goes well, we’ll soon reach The Heart of the World.
Be patient, my friend.
On the day when the bound gods gain freedom, we... will gain freedom as well."
