Chapter 1103 - Next Course
During this time, Lin Xingzhi had killed more than one thousand G.o.d Rank Experts after killing a Rank 2 G.o.d effortlessly.
While keeping an eye on Alex"s movement, Lin Xingzhi continued at her own pace until someone came to her.
He had long purple hair and an aloof expression. He kneeled in front of her and spoke. "Milady, the situation over there is over. It turned out that there is a traitor among the alliance and he had the power of the bear.
"Just like the information, the bear and the snake were always attracted to each other. This time, the bear was a former guy from this universe, so we can safely a.s.sume there are another one or two bears hidden right now.
"At the same time, the current G.o.d King didn"t have enough strength to rival them, so we really needed additional help during the war."
"…" Lin Xingzhi furrowed her eyebrows and sighed. "Well, at least, we have killed the snake and one bear. And we have confirmed that some people in this universe have become a double agent like what happened in the past.
"This way, we could start preparing for the next phase and destroy them completely this time." Lin Xingzhi"s expression turned serious as she looked at Alex.
Alex had been fighting the Rank 3 G.o.d for half an hour already, but the result was far from satisfying. Nonetheless, Alex was a Rank 5 G.o.d. The result was more than enough because not only he endured all the attacks from the Rank 3 G.o.d for half an hour, he managed to injure him a couple of times.
Of course, Alex"s condition wasn"t that good either. He had used everything in his possession other than his new s.p.a.ce Element Mastery.
The biggest contribution to this battle was none other than his Pure Fire. Due to its purifying ability, he managed to render the poison useless, allowing him to keep attacking like there"s no tomorrow.
At the same time, the super-fast summoning arrays couldn"t be disregarded just like that. It helped Alex corner the snake from time to time.
Unfortunately, only two out of one hundred arrays he made could injure the snake. The other wounds he inflicted on the snake were from either his Pure Fire or his Seven Purities Slash.
Since the situation became even more complex, Lin Xingzhi decided to stop Alex"s fight by killing the snake herself.
"!!!" Alex widened his eyes when he saw Lin Xingzhi creating a Lightning Disturbance to smite this snake until it was reduced to ashes. Dissatisfaction filled his face because he never expected Lin Xingzhi to end it this soon. "Why? I can still fight, you know."
"I know. But there is something more pressing."
"If it"s related to this war, it"s not pressing, no?" Alex tilted his head in confusion.
"I know, but you should know about this first." Lin Xingzhi briefed him on how the fight on the other side went on.
Alex fell silent when he heard that the bear appeared. Unfortunately, they couldn"t find anything from the bear because there was no other choice than to kill him.
"Maybe I should ask you to help them." Alex scratched the back of his head and sighed.
"It"s fine. We can search for the next clue."
"Yeah." Alex nodded. "If there were indeed a bear hidden among the people in the alliance, they would surely come to us by reinforcing the alliance. I will ask the Holy G.o.d to hide this fact first."
"What are you planning?" She narrowed her eyes.
"The Wind G.o.d was the person in the alliance. Those who knew about this would only be the bears themselves since I would be locking the information right after this." Alex smirked evilly. "In other words, we will suspect everyone that mentions the death of the Wind G.o.d.
"At the same time, they will also use his death to be the reason for our war. And I don"t think I need to explain the real ident.i.ty of those who incited them, right?"
*Gasp—!* Lin Xingzhi took a step back as she shook her head helplessly. "They are the bears. In other words, anyone who mentioned it should be eliminated first. The problem would be how to know their ident.i.ties."
"I will send the Holy G.o.d back and have him pretend that there is no alliance between us. After that, the bear will surely know that he is acting as a double agent for me, resulting in them trying to force him to leave the alliance.
"The Holy G.o.d then plays dumb until he gets enough information for us before officially leaving the alliance. This is enough, no?" Alex smiled after getting this brilliant plan.
"Yes." Lin Xingzhi nodded with a smile.
"In any case, the Holy G.o.d won"t be touched because they are afraid of his reputation. The moment the Holy G.o.d dies, many worlds will be angry. That"s how big his reputation is. Hence, the bears don"t want to destroy their ultimate plan, allowing us to reserve our strength too."
"I see. I can understand your plan. I will talk to Anya for the details…" Lin Xingzhi thought for a moment and asked playfully. "Shall we go to the other G.o.d Kings then?"
Alex looked at the battlefield situation before agreeing. "Since the situation has become one side, let"s depart immediately. Agnis shall lead the army."
The N Squad that informed Lin Xingzhi bowed to Alex before disappearing, bringing his message to Agnis and any other Rank 2 G.o.ds on their side.
Meanwhile, Alex and Lin Xingzhi went toward the three G.o.d Kings without Alex"s Teleportation Array. After all, they might know that Alex was an Array Master, but no one knew he was a s.p.a.ce Element Master. Hence, it was better for him to hide this power for a little longer.
When he arrived, the three G.o.d Kings let out a breath of relief.
"How are you three?" Alex smiled.
"Horrible. I need to let this guy win everything." Raiju snorted while pointing his finger at Hans.
"Hmph. I"m powerful. That"s why I became the winner. The loser should just shut up." Hans shrugged.
"Hoho. You two… Are you going to dismiss my contribution?"
"You are a good guy, right? Just give me your achievement." Raiju harrumphed while glaring at Hans.
"You two should donate first to the church. With your power, I"m sure that many people will have a smile on their face when you donate the Spirit Crystals."
"I take it back. This old man is not a good person. He is just a scammer."
"I"m not. I"ve never embezzled people"s money. I have even expelled many people who are corrupted by greed, l.u.s.t, or whatever. What do you want me to do next?" The Holy G.o.d looked at them with a weird face.
"Anyway, I know that you three have a good relations.h.i.+p, but I want you three to listen to me first." Alex sighed and stopped them from talking or else they would keep arguing for another hour.
The three surprisingly became silent in an instant as they looked at Alex"s face with a serious expression.
Alex smiled and nodded before turning to the Holy G.o.d. "What do you think about this battle?"
"I know that there is a hidden danger to our universe and I shall fight to stop it for the good of this universe. Hence, I will gladly fight alongside the Spirit G.o.d to save this universe." The Holy G.o.d nodded.
"I don"t want to save this universe. I"m just taking revenge for my past and protecting my subjects. That"s all." Alex shrugged.
"Pfft." Raiju and Hans laughed at the Holy G.o.d. He was completely bamboozled by Alex because Alex never thought about the greater good. If Alex were to choose whether he saved the universe or helped his world, he would, without a doubt, choose the latter. Alexander Sirius would surely leave the battlefield just to return to Eulja even if it means abandoning them.
Christopher tried hard to remain calm as he said, "Anyway, whatever the reason, your action will save this universe, so I won"t say anything. For now, I should do my part…
"By Heaven and Earth as the witness, I, Christopher, promise Alexander Sirius that I will fight alongside him and never betray him until the beast that threatens this universe is dead. I shall have my own retainers to swear the same oath as me."
After hearing the oath, Alex nodded with a smile. "That"s good enough. For now, I want to tell you about my plan."
The three nodded and began listening to Alex"s plan. They couldn"t help but gasp at how Alex perceived the entire situation.
What the G.o.d of Destruction saw in the past wasn"t wrong. Alex really planned to swallow the alliance as a whole instead of fighting them until he became a G.o.d King.
"You are really a devil." The G.o.d of Destruction said while smiling. "But I like it."
"What do you think, Holy G.o.d?" Alex asked.
"I am not sure if I can lie since I have vowed to never lie for the rest of my life. However, I can still choose to not say anything." The Holy G.o.d nodded. "That"s why… Leave everything to me. I will see who is suspicious and who is not. I will make those traitors face their sins."
"Alright." Alex nodded with a serious expression. "I will leave this task to you. At the very least, I don"t need to worry about your life."
"Ahaha… I hope that you can worry about it. This old man is going to retire already if not because of your appearance. If only my daughter can step to G.o.d King Stage, I would have handed the position to her." The Holy G.o.d sighed.
"Hmph. My daughter is better than yours. Right, son-in-law?" Hans snorted at Holy G.o.d"s remark before playfully staring at Alex.
"…" Alex shrugged and stayed silent. Meanwhile, the G.o.d of Destruction didn"t know what to say. Feeling a bit left of, he realized that he should get a daughter right now, so he could compare her to them, albeit he never thought of it until now, so his thinking was rather extreme.
"Anyway, I would ask the Palm G.o.d and the G.o.d of Destruction for your cooperation to investigate the other weapons. I have given you the information about the phoenix and the bat, right?"
The two nodded while narrowing their eyes. Hans said, "Leave it to me… I… No, my wife will take care of it."
"Incompetent." Raiju snorted.
"What did you say?" Hans snarled. "This is how the capable guy enjoys his life. Not only will he get a beautiful and caring wife, but he will get a capable wife of leading an army. I can just enjoy every moment while relaxing."
"My point still stands." Raiju shrugged and looked away.
"Are you picking a fight with me?"
Alex finally turned around and said, "Since we have finished our discussion, it"s time for me to return to my army. Bye."
"Oi!"
