After Longevity Heaven finished speaking, Octopus Lady responded with silence.
Only after a long while did she continue:
"I still insist on forming an army, to give ordinary Players a chance to protect themselves."
"If the other overlords don't approve or support it, then I'll do it myself in the Neptune Domain."
Longevity Heaven showed a helpless expression and let out a brief sigh.
"I know you are one of the God's Favored, and that you have an uncontrollable sympathy for the weak."
"But when it comes to the survival of the universe, a soft heart won't help."
"It may even harm you instead."
Octopus Lady remained unmoved and offered no response.
Longevity Heaven shook his head, attempting to change the subject.
"Other than that, is there anything else you want to bring up at the meeting?"
"No." Octopus Lady answered, then returned directly to her seat without waiting for Longevity Heaven's response.
The latter had just opened his mouth to add a few more sarcastic remarks when he realized he no longer had the chance.
He could only tack on two weakly threatening comments.
"You want to form your own army in the Neptune Domain and delay your own progress toward godhood? I have no objections."
"But you still have to abide by the matters unanimously passed at the meeting. You must provide the resources you should provide, and you cannot affect the growth of these six godhood candidates."
"Don't worry. I, Matilda, am not a troublemaker. I have no objections to anything unanimously approved by everyone." Octopus Lady replied expressionlessly.
"However, before that, I still have a small question that I would like the overlord of the Hub Star Domain to answer for me."
"Oh? Go ahead." The six eyes of Longevity Heaven brightened slightly, piqued by curiosity.
