The Troublemaker and the Ancient Furnace
"Advanced Campaign Mode?"
Roger's eyelids twitched.
This was the first time he had encountered a battle that could be considered high-level!
This shows how brutal the upcoming battle will be.
He estimated.
It's possible that it's not just the Starry Sky God Race and the Celestial Gods Race who are involved in the war.
All the living forces of the entire Ancient Desolate Continent were more or less drawn into this chaotic battle.
At least 400,000 people gathered in the Ten Thousand Year Mountain Range alone, which served as the main battlefield!
Not to mention that there is a steady stream of new blood and fresh blood pouring in from all sides!
It is also thanks to the complex terrain and vast area of the Ten Thousand Year Mountain Range.
Change it to terrain like Ice Dragon Canyon.
It's long since become a bustling, overcrowded area!
at the moment.
The various factions have remained relatively restrained.
They were just testing each other.
Occasionally, small-scale armed conflicts break out.
Overall, things are quite calm.
But the more this is the case, the more likely it is to happen.
Roger felt an undercurrent of tension, as if a storm was brewing.
So many people.
Once a fight breaks out.
That was truly a hellish, meat-grinding place! Even someone of Roger's strength...
Naturally, they wouldn't be afraid of whether a low-level battlefield would pose any threat to them.
He cared about the lives of ordinary people.
Or rather...
The lives of those innocent people who were forced to participate in this war!
They may be the original inhabitants of the Ancient Desolate Continent.
They may be inhabitants of Sub-Plane.
It could also be an affiliated organization of the two major powers.
They had no intention of getting involved in a war of this magnitude.
However, the irreconcilable blood feud Starry Sky God Race and the Celestial Gods Race inevitably led to all of this.
After this battle.
Regardless of the outcome.
Those at the bottom, forced into this situation, are the biggest victims! The Celestial Gods Race have won.
Will they resurrect these warriors?
Obviously not.
The Starry Sky God Race are the same.
These indigenous people were clearly aware of this as well.
Roger could clearly sense the oppressive atmosphere when he used his Heavenly Vision and Earthly Hearing.
I don't want to fight.
We had no choice but to fight.
"Is being forced to obey orders from a more powerful being the fate of ordinary people?"
Roger silently shook his head.
At present.
He declined the Little Huang ' invitation once again.
She then gracefully leaped off the mountain.
He didn't rush to confirm the activation of Campaign Mode.
Instead, he wandered around the Ten Thousand Year Mountain Range all by himself.
I quickly gathered some information about the area.
Half a day later.
He got the information he wanted.
In this round of investigation.
Roger, with a heavy heart, confirmed one of his suspicions—
This war actually had a direct trigger.
That was him!
turn out to be.
After the Battle of Fallen Pine Plains ended without a clear conclusion.
The Starry Sky God Race and the Celestial Gods Race ceased hostilities.
They seem to intend to regroup for a while before taking action.
From this perspective.
The two sides will have to fight sooner or later.
However, this timeframe was abruptly moved forward.
The reason is the rampage of the Black Crystal World!
In the past seven days.
Without Olmerdo and balances, the Black Crystal Will went completely insane.
It attacks the surrounding planes irrationally.
Ancient Desolate Continent!
The Totem Realm! Even the Torrent Island, on which the Celestial Gods Race depended for survival, became its target for attack and devouring.
In this way...
The already incredibly active Plane Will have all awakened.
To protect their territory.
The Plane Will began to rub against each other.
They transformed into animal forms resembling the Wilderness God.
A series of fights, day and night, began.
The battle did not last long.
But the impact was enormous.
Roger found out through his Perception Authority.
Black Crystal Will in its berserk state is ridiculously strong.
Its concrete form—
That dark caterpillar possessed extremely strong defensive and Attack Power.
Besides the Ancient Desolate Will that transformed into Ferocious Ape.
Neither the spirit turtles of Torrent Island nor the ivy of the Totem Realm can rival it.
If it weren't for the Ferocious Ape's sudden intervention that drove the caterpillar away...
The Plane Will might be devoured alive! But after being driven away by the Ferocious Ape.
The caterpillar did not give up.
It harbors persistent malice not only towards the other three wills.
They even took the lead in issuing a "Deity Recruitment Order"! In this recruitment order...
It summons its own people and nearby creatures to join its cause.
This is done by ordering these minions to plunder, destroy, and occupy territories in other planes.
It can further encroach on territory and power.
Seeing that the Black Crystal Will was 'unprincipled'.
The other three major wills naturally cannot be idle either.
These entities, representing a world or plane, have all issued similar recruitment notices.
A battle for control of their own territory has begun! Coincidentally, the retreat of the Starry Sky God Race and Celestial Gods Race has not yet been fully executed.
Both responded to the call of their respective gods without prior arrangement.
They joined the war.
only.
The Starry Sky God Race joined the Black Crystal faction.
The Celestial Gods Race naturally protects the will of their own Torrent Island.
In this context
Many native inhabitants of the Ancient Desolate Continent were drawn over by the Ancient Desolate Will.
This group has the largest number of people.
However, its quality is somewhat inferior to the other two major groups.
However, the power of the regional will itself can be taken into account.
The Ancient Faction is currently the most powerful.
The Black Crystal faction is second.
The Torrent faction returns.
As for the Totem Realm...
it is a pity.
The already weak Virginia creeper was severely weakened after that battle.
The Starry Sky God Race, who were supposed to protect it, simply abandoned the Totem Realm after using its Anchor Point properties!
According to Roger's speculation.
The Starry Sky God Race did this to curry favor with the Black Crystal Will.
It was also to regain control of the Black Crystal Authority that Olmerdo had lost.
even.
There is likely a deeper reason behind this move—
Roger realized that the power of the Black Crystal Will was somewhat abnormal.
It is a gamified Two-Dimensional World.
Theoretically, the level of Black Crystal Will is roughly equivalent to that of an ordinary Sub-Plane.
Under normal circumstances.
It's on par with Torrent Island and Totem Realm.
Now he can actually take on two at once.
This is absolutely outrageous.
Roger didn't believe that it was his Great Dimensional Slash that brought out its potential.
There must be some other force behind this!
Who exactly did this?
The gods of the Fourth Star Track—
Messenary and Telodal?
Possibly.
But the likelihood is low.
The former had just had a second life taken away by Roger.
The latter should be busy cleaning up the mess on its own planet right now.
Even the power of gods has its limitations.
The rage of the Black Crystal Will may not necessarily be due to their manipulation.
So there's only one possibility left—
"Felton once mentioned that the Starry Sky God Race and the Starry Sky God Race ' Aberration Origins were in cahoots..."
"Perhaps the power Olmerdo wields contains elements of the origin of the aberration."
"And the raging Black Crystal World was also catalyzed by that power..."
Roger thought about it carefully.
If that's really the case.
Stopping the rampaging Black Crystal World is now an urgent matter.
not to mention.
Roger also has the task of appeasing the Black Crystal Will.
In his view.
There are many ways to appease someone.
"If you can calm it down with your fists, then that's a kind of soothing, isn't it?"
Roger thought to himself.
In summary.
The current situation is a three-way standoff between the Torrent Faction, the Ancient Faction, and the Black Crystal Faction.
The weakest Totem Camp is basically a bunch of useless idiots.
Apart from some Totem God who do not belong to the Starry Sky God Race and a few indigenous tribes, who are still struggling to support the weak Climbing Tiger.
Everyone else had already found better opportunities elsewhere.
If nothing unexpected happens.
After this battle.
The Totem Realm will cease to exist.
Its best outcome.
They also became vassals of the victors in the war.
After being stripped of a large amount of core power.
Only a small, desolate area remained as a foundation for their continued existence.
Roger understood the situation.
After careful consideration.
He then confirmed that the Campaign Mode had been activated.
On the data panel.
"Advanced Campaign Mode (Battle of Four Sides) is now available!"
"Optional Factions: Black Crystal/Ancient/Riptide/Totem/Others"
It's impossible for it to be black crystal.
Roger was also counting on this battle to boost his stats on his good brothers.
Joining the Black Crystal means that we cannot attack the Starry Sky God Race.
inappropriate.
As for the rapids.
That's also unlikely.
He was not familiar with the Celestial Gods Race.
Ancient is a good option.
But Roger was somewhat sensitive about the title ' Celestial God's Testing Ground '.
The indigenous inhabitants under Huang Gu's command were also relatively weak.
The Ancient Desolate Will also feels somewhat like a lone commander.
Roger could certainly rise to a position second only to the emperor if he joined the party.
But that would be a bit too high-profile.
It doesn't fit his low-key and pragmatic style.
As for totems.
Is it really necessary to join such a massive, multi-person-riding faction?...
Roger thought about it for a while.
I found that none of the four factions were good people.
It's not enough for me to entrust myself to someone temporarily.
So, driven by curiosity...
He clicked on the "Other" option.
Other factions:...
1. Scavenger: You will not participate directly in the battle, but you can participate in the loot-hunting activity after the battle when no one wants to collect the spoils.
Allies: Treasure Goblin /Quick Tribe of Quake
2. Neutral: You will not be directly involved in this battle, but you can deal with all parties involved as a neutral force. Playing both sides in the war is always the best way to make a fortune.
With your charm and eloquence.
He is more than capable of leading the way in his own camp.
Allies: Wilderness God / Others powerful enough to remain neutral
3. Spoiler: You cannot actively participate in this battle.
However, you can participate in the battle under certain conditions.
The specific conditions are:...
When two opposing camps exist and conflict breaks out.
Before the battle ends.
You can freely enter the battlefield.
During this time, you can attack anyone.
Note: The disruptor faction is not allowed to initiate a declaration of war against anyone.
Otherwise, it will be considered as abandoning the choice of faction.
The penalty is the cancellation of faction quest rewards.
Allies: None...
4. Bystander: You are the witness and recorder of the war.
Just watch the show and that's it.
Allies: The small animals and plants that survived this war.
5. Free agent: You can freely enter or leave the battle.
The trade-off is that you won't be able to enjoy the additional benefits of the Campaign Mode.
"Is there even a need to choose?"
"Stir it up really hard!"
After watching it.
Roger didn't say a word.
The "troublemaker" has been identified! (See the data panel.)
"Notification: You have joined another faction (the Spoilers). Your 'Milestone: Peace Ambassador ' rank has been detected, and you have received the Spoilers' exclusive quest!"
"Exclusive Mission (Till War): End 6 battles with a total of more than 1,000 participants from both sides."
Quest Reward: Nature Crown
"Nature Crown (Upgrade/Crown/Set)"
"Attributes: Intelligence +3 / Charisma +3"
Special Effect 1: Oracle of Nature
"Nature Oracle: This is a module that includes 12 transcendent spells and 3 ascension spells."
You can mobilize the power within the module by issuing divine pronouncements.
The consumed divine spell will slowly recharge itself.
Recharge time: 7 days for Superb/28 days for Upgrade
Special Effects 2: Green Zone
"Green Domain: You have obtained a temporary domain (green)."
Special Effects 3: Children of Nature
"Child of Nature: Many of your nature-related skills have been enhanced."
Climbing +50, Swimming +50, Naked Running +50, Grass Walking +50, Cave Exploration +50...
From the perspective of its own attributes.
The effect of the Nature Crown is mediocre.
It's barely reached the point where it's 'usable'.
But what Roger cared about was...
This thing is a set!
Moreover, the set's effects are quite remarkable!
According to the detailed instructions.
When you have all three pieces of the natural set.
It can summon a temporary Land Divine Kingdom!
And after the 6-piece set.
You can then obtain a real divine kingdom!
This was somewhat useful for Roger, who was always ready to become a charlatan.
Moreover, the content of the exclusive mission was quite in line with his temperament.
It's easy to do and not troublesome.
"Isn't it just trying to break up a fight?"
"Isn't this simple?"
Roger thought to himself with ease:
"I'm a Peace Ambassador, after all!"
After confirming the faction.
Roger quickly looked away from the data panel.
He was quite satisfied with the identity of this troublemaker.
The only downside is that it can't take the initiative to start something.
But this was not a problem for Roger.
At present.
He summoned 16 demon minions from the Xia Yin Realm.
Roger divided the 16 people into 4 groups.
Then he commanded them to transform into the appearance of natives.
They then joined one of the four major factions.
In this way...
Even the weakest Totem Camp has Roger's men.
They want to stir up trouble.
That's an easy thing.
Anyway, the system's judgment isn't very intelligent.
This loophole.
Roger has always been one to take any opportunity to get into a hole.
After arranging the backup plan.
Roger scanned the optional missions offered by the "Disruptors" faction again.
The rewards for these tasks are not high.
So Roger didn't look at it closely.
Let's talk about it all at once.
After doing all this.
Roger walked lightly northwards towards the Ten Thousand Year Mountain Range.
At sunset.
He then arrived at the hilly area north of the mountains.
They are separated by two rivers.
Roger then saw the large army continuously converging towards the depths of the mountains.
That was an allied army of indigenous tribes that came in response to the call of the Starry Sky God Race.
To avoid unnecessary disputes.
Roger used an Earth Escape a type of escape technique).
It passed right under their feet.
Then he headed north without looking back.
Completely disregarding the increasingly tense atmosphere in the Ten Thousand Year Mountain Range.
Because Roger knew very well.
The current tense standoff is just the appetizer.
The real show is far from over.
As a qualified disruptor.
He couldn't possibly enter the game too early.
The gap period before that.
Roger was preparing to travel to a location north of the Ten Thousand Year Mountain Range.
That place.
These are the coordinates left to him by the Red Valley Knights ".
That's right.
The location that the Red Valley Descendants left for Roger was north of the Ten Thousand Year Mountain Range.
This shows that Roger's previous inferences about Quentin and Red Valley were wrong.
This made him even more curious.
He wanted to know why those guys, who were supposedly Red Valley Descendants, would help him for no apparent reason.
What was their purpose in leaving their coordinates? Thinking about this...
Roger quickened his pace.
Night fell.
Roger stood on a raised hill.
Silently sensing the unusual earth vein rhythms of this place.
A few seconds later.
He bent down.
He placed both hands on the ground.
That instant.
He clearly sensed a magnificent furnace that had been silent for a long time!
Right here underground!...
Hint: You have discovered 'Remains of the Gods: The Ancient Furnace '
"You have discovered the guide of the Red Valley Knights '!"
