Chapter 361: Preparations Before The Divine Rank Wild Gods’ Descent
[Regarding the deal you have with the Universe Will, you were confident that you could renegade on it. However, as much as possible, you still wanted to uphold the words and deals you’ve made.]
[Of course, if it conflicted with your plans and interests, it was not like you weren’t flexible enough to disregard it. After all, this was merely a doomsday life simulation, and you didn’t care about the NPCs here who couldn’t be brought back to the real world.]
[’Although the Universe Will had bottomed out most of its origin energy, they still have saved up enough to assist the Savior in executing the Third Major Plan.’]
[’But if I were to betray the Universe Will now and ruin its Third Major Plan, it remains to be seen whether the Universe Will dares to flip the table and use the remaining origin energy to obstruct me and prevent the Zenith Train from leaving the universe.’]
[After all, for the Universe Will’s Third Major Plan to have a decent chance of success, your Zenith Train Crew holding back the Divine rank Wild Gods was a crucial part of it.]
[If you were to leave the train survival universe using the Zenith Train, it wasn’t impossible. However, not only will the Divine rank Wild God pursue you, but the Universe Will might sabotage your Zenith Train Crew from leaving.]
[With its current remaining origin energy, the Universe Will might not have enough to prevent the Divine rank Wild Gods from leaving, but it had enough origin energy to block the Zenith Train’s exit from the universe until the Divine rank Wild Gods caught up.]
[’Sigh, the benefits obtained from the Universe Will aren’t that easy to take for free. If I were powerful enough to flip the table and disregard the Divine rank Wild Gods and the Universe Will, I wouldn’t need the benefits given by the Universe Will in the first place.’]
[Having such thoughts, you and your train crewmates had already prepared yourselves for the upcoming battle against the Divine rank Wild Gods.]
[Although the extermination of your Zenith Train Crew was inevitable, none of your train crewmates minded the foreseeable end of the Zenith Train Crew. Rather, they were thrilled to fight against the Divine rank Wild Gods!]
[Before the battle started, the Zenith Train Crew weren’t idle.]
[Magnus and Cecilia were actively deploying traps they’ve invented years ago just for this event. Cecilia had even developed a certain machine life race whose sole purpose was to slay Wild Gods, which she called the "Godfall Gadget Race".]
[Cecilia had previously created sentient machine life races, but compared to the previous ones she had created, the Godfall Gadget Race were merely killing machines with sentience, and they were weaker than most beings of the same rank.]
[Yet, when encountering entities with divinity, especially the Wild God race, the Godfall Gadget Race could perform their innate bloodline trait of "Godfall".]
[Moreover, the reason why even Cecilia treated them as merely killing machines and not true sentient lifeforms like the previous machine life she created was due to them being considered as "Gadgets".]
[They weren’t humanoid lifeforms capable of sapience but merely sentient lifeforms in the form of a nanobot. Moreover, unlike certain machine lifeforms she created, Godfall Gadgets weren’t capable of reproduction.]
[The size of most godfall gadgets was in the nanometers. They were nanobots that were in the shape of an octahedron, capable of combining with each other to better exert the effects of their Godfall bloodline trait.]
[Aside from the Godfall Gadget Race that Cecilia created, Magnus had also created several inventions and technological weapons.]
[One of them was the upgraded version of the Firmament Piercing Needle, which was still of the same name but of a higher grade, capable of piercing through the Supremacy Territory of a Divine rank powerhouse.]
[There were other weapons he invented, but Magnus prepared to use them only when the fight began, as it wasn’t something that needed to be deployed in advance.]
[As for Old MacDonald, he had cultivated plants that could survive outer space and take root in the surface void, which he planted in advance to deal with those Divine rank Wild Gods.]
[Old MacDonald knew that even with the plants he cultivated, they couldn’t slay a Divine rank Wild God. Due to this, those plants were specifically crossbred to acquire the traits of suppressing and sealing divinity while possessing tremendous durability.]
[The most prominent plant among them was the Divinity-Sealing Void Thorns, which could take root in the surface void to draw upon the power of the void to seal the divinity of Wild Gods.]
[The thorns on those divinity-sealing void thorns could even cause great damage to the body and soul of the Celestial rank Wild Gods, capable of penetrating through the defenses of the body and soul of such powerhouses.]
[Of course, that would only be useful against Celestial rank Wild Gods. For Divine rank Wild Gods, Old MacDonald relied more on the divinity-sealing void thorns’ capability of sealing divinity and divine energy.]
[Even if the divinity-sealing void thorns couldn’t fully restrain the Divine rank Wild Gods, it would be enough if they could at least halt the Divine rank Wild God’s movements for a short moment. Its usage was mostly to annoy and distract the Divine rank Wild Gods.]
[According to the plan conceived by you and your train crewmates, killing a Divine rank Wild God was enough. In other words, your train crewmates would do their best to delay the other Divine rank Wild Gods while you, Jade, and Morvane were in charge of slaying at least one Initial Divine rank Wild God.]
[Even Magnus and Cecilia didn’t plan to rely on their technology to slay a Divine rank Wild God. Although it wasn’t impossible, the chances were still lower compared to relying on Morvane using his Death Sovereignty to assist you and Jade.]
[So, the Godfall Gadget Race was created by Cecilia to threaten the Divine rank Wild Gods and attract their attention and apprehension.]
[Actually, slaying just one Initial Divine rank Wild God was enough for you. According to the first-generation Human Emperor, one shouldn’t comprehend the Supremacy left behind by a Divine rank powerhouse.]
[While you were confident that you could use World Order to extract the Supremacy of a near-dead Divine rank powerhouse, you had already confirmed with Hint Prompt that the first-generation Human Progenitor wasn’t lying.]
[Due to this, you and your train crewmates didn’t care about the Supremacies that could be acquired from those Divine rank Wild Gods. Their value was lesser than the Sovereignties dropped by the Wild Gods.]
[If not for needing enough simulation score, it was actually pointless to slay a Divine rank Wild God.]
[The benefit of slaying them was less than a Celestial rank Wild God. Due to this, you and your train crewmates merely did your best to concentrate all efforts on killing one Divine rank Wild God.]
[As for Old MacDonald and the others, they were assigned to just stall the rest of the Divine rank Wild Gods while you, Jade, and Morvane worked together to assassinate an isolated Initial Divine rank Wild God.]
[For this reason, you and Jade assisted your train crewmates in their preparations.]
[For example, you used your Creation Sovereignty to create countless crimson stars for Astraea’s Divination Sovereignty, Fate Sovereignty, and Bloodline Magic: Crimson Constellation.]
[The crimson stars you’ve created for Astraea had formed a crimson constellation that spanned hundreds of thousands of star systems.]
[The formation and placement of each crimson star were calculated by Astraea’s Divination Sovereignty and Fate Sovereignty to be at an absolutely correct placement in order to achieve a sealing formation using her Crimson Constellation that could even trap a Divine rank powerhouse!]
[In direct combat, Astraea might not stand out much. But if it was just for sealing and stalling enemies, her capabilities were greater than the rest of the Zenith Train Crewmates.]
[Moreover, to make the countless stars you’ve created complement Astraea’s Vampire Progenitor bloodline traits and Bloodline Magic: Crimson Constellation, Bes had assisted you in imbuing each star with the blood attribute using their Blood Sovereignty.]
[Bes knew that despite being the strongest Zenith Train Crewmate in terms of power rank, their actual combat power was actually the weakest in the Zenith Train Crew. Due to this, Bes decided to do their best in assisting Scarlet and the others.]
[With Bes’s current power, they truly had no advantage against powerhouses of higher power rank than them, such as those Divine rank Wild Gods.]
[Due to this, the plan you and the others had formulated couldn’t put Bes to much use since the weakest Divine rank Wild God could easily kill Bes in a short moment. Let alone stalling for time, it would be a miracle if Bes could last a second under a Divine rank Wild God’s casual attack.]
[Knowing this, Bes didn’t insist on participating in the battle against the Divine rank Wild Gods.]
[Instead, they chose to become Astraea’s partner in maintaining the sealing formation and to assist Astraea in stalling as many Divine-rank Wild Gods as possible.]
