To set the Elf Goddess's mind at ease, she was not dispatched to the Spirit of the Nature Ancestral Wood, Mu Ya, as the Elf Goddess had suggested.
Instead, she was sent directly to Helenaidis, the Earth Goddess.
Now, all matters were settled.
Xian'er entered and knelt respectfully on one knee, replying, "Your Great Majesty, the Sovereign Lord, all our affairs are prepared!"
"As soon as those otherworldly fiends arrive, we can commence our plan!"
Xiao Mo's eyes lowered, filled with killing intent.
"How many troops do we have at present?"
Xian'er replied:
"Reporting to Your Majesty, there are three deities above the God King level, twenty-six God King level deities, six hundred thousand deities at or below the God level, and deities below the Saint level... none."
After the last "Otherworldly Fiend Extermination Event," the Immortal and Demon Empire had profited greatly.
Their overall strength had been elevated.
While their deities might not be as numerous as those in other divine systems, their strength could not be underestimated.
With over six hundred thousand deities at or above the God level, and more than twenty God King level deities, their strength was terrifying.
If their might were to spread, it would surely shake the outside world!
Astonished by their power, so formidable!
Xiao Mo was also satisfied. He nodded, "Issue an order to divide the divine army into twenty-six teams!"
"With the twenty-six God Kings as leaders of each team, they will then hunt down the otherworldly fiends!"
Xiao Mo, while harboring some aversion towards the otherworldly fiend race, generally favored their powerful destructive capabilities.
Therefore, he could utterly annihilate them and then use the Immortal and Demon Reincarnation Pool to reincarnate these fiends.
At this moment, all territory lords had received notifications from the "Game Official."
Instantly, the "World Chat Channel" exploded once more!
"Holy crap! No way, the otherworldly fiends are going to descend here in less than a day!"
"I wasn't nervous at first, but this countdown is making me a bit anxious now!"
"What exactly are these otherworldly fiends? Why are they so terrifying?"
"The Primordial Deities are actually so afraid!"
"That was tens of thousands of years ago, but it still shocks these deities."
"That means the otherworldly fiends are an extremely terrifying race."
"And after tens of thousands of years, they must have continued to grow their strength."
"And will return once more!"
"So this time, the assault of the otherworldly fiends will definitely be more terrifying than the one tens of thousands of years ago!"
"Their strength could subvert the Primordial Continent!"
"That's truly too terrifying!"
"Even those powerful divine systems are so afraid of the otherworldly fiends. Aren't we in even worse trouble now?"
Most territory lords, though individually powerful, could not compare to the vast systems of the native divine hierarchies.
Thus, these territory lords fell into a state of tension.
"My situation now is far more nerve-wracking than the last time I participated in the 'Otherworldly Fiend Extermination Event'."
"Don't be too anxious, Lord Xiao Mo has already made his move!"
This statement was made by Shi Tianqi, the lord of the Ironclad Territory.
Upon seeing Shi Tianqi's statement, someone immediately asked:
"Lord Shi Tianqi of the Ironclad Territory, what do you mean by that?"
"Yeah, and you also posted a picture in the World Chat Channel earlier. What's that about?"
Seeing the message, Shi Tianqi felt a pang in his stomach.
At this moment, he transformed into a super keyboard warrior and replied angrily:
"What are you talking about? Who told you I photoshopped it? These pictures are all genuine, no photoshopping involved!"
"What!? Did you really meet with Lord Xiao Mo?"
"And are the details you're sharing also true?"
"Of course they're true! Would I lie to you?"
"Also, what do you mean by what you just said? What's true or false?"
"Mine are definitely real, why would I listen to you?"
"Hold on, then why are you listening to me?"
"Don't tell me you actually think I made it all up?"
"Of course not, because we also have brains and know that cooperation is paramount right now."
"And we thought you were just using Lord Xiao Mo's name, but we didn't expect it all to be true in the end."
"So that's how it is. It seems you do have a bit of brains after all."
"But Lord Xiao Mo is truly too kind! He's even helping us. That's right, but why doesn't he let us go directly to his Immortal and Demon Empire?"
"Yeah, yeah, wouldn't that be even better?"
Lord Shi Tianqi of the Ironclad Territory immediately said:
"What you're saying, of course, is not permissible!"
"Because Lord Xiao Mo has already told us that what you're saying has been considered by Lord Xiao Mo, but it's a command from the 'Game Official'."
"What?!"
"What does this have to do with the Game Official? Why are they stopping us?"
"I should know the reason, right? Have you all forgotten our original purpose?"
"Do you remember why the 'Game Official' placed us in this world?"
"It was for us to contend for supremacy, to wage a racial dominance war!"
"So we territory lords are in competition with each other. But now, Lord Xiao Mo is dominant alone."
"Our competitive relationship has weakened significantly, and the 'Game Official' surely wouldn't stand for it; they'll make us change things."
"How can we change this? The situation is already clear. Lord Xiao Mo has clearly secured first place."
"Yeah, he's already far ahead of all of us. How can we compete with him?"
"No! It's not like that! Although Lord Xiao Mo is now far ahead of us, and even if we try our best, we can't catch up."
"But the final result isn't out yet, even if it's already obvious."
"However, perhaps the true intention of the 'Game Official' isn't for one territory lord to stand alone, but for others to join together."
"So if all of us territory lords unite, the 'Game Official' certainly won't be pleased."
"If the 'Game Official' wants to bring us together, it must be for their own reasons."
