Chapter 509
Centered around the World Tree, the four divine factions, the descending faction from the heavens, and the supreme Heavenly Principles faction, these three forces vie for supremacy, unleashing a world-destroying war far surpassing the Archon War in the skies, the Great Land, and the seas. Weak nations and gods who failed to join the fray in time find themselves caught in the middle, their fate uncertain—they could be annihilated at any moment.
"Hiss!"
Furcalos gasped again.
The god of wisdom is defying the heavens!
She thought that preparing for five hundred years to smash the divine throne was already utterly rebellious. Now it seems that there are still hidden talents among the Seven Archons, and her schemes as a mere Hydro Archon are simply insignificant.
"No, no, no, on the bright side, maybe this Nacizenkruz is just fooling people... fooling people my foot! The fact that I know his plans is irrefutable proof that the tide of fate has already turned against us."
Furcalos couldn't help but tug at her hair. Rene understood fate; how could she, the Hydro Archon who had begun considering prophecies even earlier than Rene, not understand?
Since fate has been severed, then the arrival of the Descendant is now confirmed.
It is highly likely that the Heavenly Principles Principle faction and the Descendants will have a major battle.
As the god of wisdom, it's only natural for the Grass God to use the power of the World Tree to orchestrate events and win over the other gods in this situation. Furthermore, what better explanation could there be for Nacizenkruz's power than a gift from the World Tree?
The more I think about it, the more irrefutable the evidence becomes; the more I think about it, the more I feel that terrifying future is truly approaching step by step!
As Furina watched Furcalos's various reactions, she became increasingly panicked.
"My other self, what comes to mind? What should we do about the prophecy? Can our plan still be used?"
"Prophecy... prophecy may no longer be important."
"Ha?"
"If my speculation is correct, then the prophecy can probably be suppressed by brute force alone, so there is no need for such a plan."
It was clearly good news, but Furcalos just shook his head with a wry smile.
If it's just a mere prophecy, and things proceed as planned, the people of Fontaine will ultimately be safe and sound. But if the disaster escalates to a higher level, then perhaps no one can protect this country.
Even if the throne were shattered, the power of the Hydro Archon returned to the Water Dragon King, and Neuvillette was transformed into a complete dragon—even so, it would be nothing compared to the power of the Heavenly Principles and the descendant, and would not mean much.
Furcalos's eyes flickered for a moment, then he looked up and stared directly at Furina:
"I need you to do two things for me!"
"You say."
"First, if I'm not mistaken, the place where you obtained the Holy Sword should be in the Dreamscape of the Pureblood Sprite Lilith. Go find Lilith, tell her the details of Nacizenkruz, and then ask her a question—given her understanding of Rene, is it possible that Nacizenkruz is lying?"
"Okay, no problem."
"Second, find a reason to go to Sumeru... no, to Liyue! I know nothing about the Grass God, but in Egeria's understanding, Morax is a trustworthy god... no, no, no, that's not right either!"
Furcalos kept shaking her head, repeatedly denying her own request, and her hesitant words fully demonstrated her confusion.
Furcalos went to Sumeru to test the Grass God's abilities and purpose, but she couldn't fathom the nature of that Goddess of Wisdom. Moreover, the other party possessed the terrifying power of the World Tree; if she were to accidentally anger her, the consequences would be unimaginable.
As the oldest and most powerful god, Morax would certainly be courted by the Grass God if he intended to accomplish something significant, so it is highly likely that Morax also knew the true situation.
Rather than seeking guidance from the completely unfamiliar Lesser Kusanali, it would be more appropriate to consult this highly respected God of Wealth.
However, this matter is of great importance, and it would be disrespectful to the Geo Archon to send someone like Furina, who is essentially a mortal and knows very little about the gods. Besides, Furina might not even be able to get the key information.
