It was only just a day or two ago that the God of War wanted to kill the Master of Mystery and seize his Mystery God System.

The War God System might be teeming with talents and clouded with masters, but a majority fell under the martial system. Comparatively speaking, the number of spellcasters was much smaller—this was determined by the sources of belief and talents. In general, wars of beliefs, battles, and warriors of gods were mostly from the martial system. The spellcasters were more or less those with a more literary style or had scholastic inclinations. Even if they were to enter a battlefield due to various reasons and had to fight, in their hearts, they would still see themselves as people with culture. They would see themselves as intellectuals but never as warriors.

Belief influenced the gods and also determined the talent reserves of a God’s Kingdom. Spellcasters had no faith in the various gods of war, and thus the War God System naturally lacked gods from the Spell System.

Wenner, the God of War, had always wanted to change this situation. His game plan was to kill the Master of Mystery and seize the Mystery God System. This way, the spellcasters would naturally become followers of the War God System. The problem would be solved instantly.

For this, he had prepared extensively, just for the moment where he would attack the Mystery God System.

And the key factor that stood in his way was the inscrutable power of the Master of Mystery.

No matter what, it was genuinely true that the Master of Mystery had annihilated the entire Elf God System back then. Even if there were thousands and millions of explanations, Wenner would still refuse to go up against a master who was capable of annihilating an entire god system.

However, with the help of his lord, the Void Mask Alliance Master, Wenner would dare to give it a shot.

It was just annihilating a god system! Back then, the Alliance Master had done it before. So long as Sui Xiong could stall the Master of Mystery for a bit, he was confident that with the many years of preparations he had made, the Master of Mystery would be utterly defeated.

Also, Wenner always had this doubt—was the Master of Mystery truly that powerful? So powerful that he could easily kill an army of close to 50 gods under the command of a great Divine Power?

If that fellow was really that powerful, how could he have not noticed it all these years?

Earlier, when Sui Xiong said, “I feel the Master of Mystery is indeed not as strong as how the legends had portrayed him to be,” it was as though a heavy weight were suddenly cast onto a formidable scale; he made up his mind, through and through.

Attack! It’s now or never!

Where military orders must never be disobeyed, the moment Wenner gave his orders, the entire War God System leaped into action right away. Within fleeting moments, the Void Warship that had been rebuilt since the previous battle sailed out slowly, and thousands of elite Oracles took their positions. The dozens of followers of the War God System, and five to six gods of subordinate positions also boarded the warship. The moment Wenner was on board, the warship set sail towards the Seven Colors Spring to attack the Mystery God System.

Sui Xiong had not expected Wenner to actually be as good as his word and attack when he said he would. He was taken aback quite suddenly.

“You all… So you’re all set for action?”

“That’s right!” Augmentin nodded and said. “In war, speed is of utmost importance! Countering slowness with speed has always been an irrefutable truth. Whether the enemy is strong or weak, so long as we are fast enough, so fast that they have no time to react at all, then the strong will weaken, and the weak will become even more vulnerable. Since we have already decided to attack, then the faster, the better!”Read more chapter on our vipnovel.com

“But… I told them that I would give them time to investigate…”

“You promised to give them time, we did not!” Augmentin smiled and said. “So long as you don’t lay a finger on them, who can blame you? In fact, you can sit on the warship and watch as an innocent bystander. We have absolute confidence that we can win this battle!”

“The opponent is a great Divine Power anyways. Don’t you want to consider it a little more?”

“If we consider further, it will be too late.” Wenner grabbed Sui Xiong’s tentacles and dragged him onto the warship. “Let’s get on board first. There is still time for us to slowly consider it along the way.”

Wenner had said that they could “slowly consider it,” but in fact, he had no intentions of doing so. The War God System had long since prepared space coordinates near the various places that they wanted to attack their targets from. After everyone was onboard, the Void Warship set out with a loud roar as it glowed with resplendence. Right away, it cut through space and sped towards the coordinates that it had already prepared earlier on.

Because the distance was far, even if they were to travel by teleportation, they would also need to keep flying for some time. Sui Xiong sat at the bow of the ship and thought of how he would explain himself at that time. He could not help feeling that the way things were being done was a bit shameful, like the doings that Professor Cheng he had mentioned before.

He recalled that Professor Cheng, who relished in bringing up ancient classics during class, had once criticized a student for going back on his word. At that time, he had given such an example: He said, “During ancient times, there was a general who had sent his advisor over to his opponent to persuade them into surrendering. With an outstanding eloquence, his advisor had succeeded in persuading the opponent to surrender. However, when the other party was ready to surrender and no longer put up any form of defense, this general had jumped at the opportunity to launch a fierce attack. That was how he managed to defeat his opponent’s army. Thereafter, the advisor naturally met with a mishap, and he, on the other hand, won himself a perfect victory.”

“What happened next?” one of the students seated in the front row asked out of curiosity.

“Then, this person also died, of course. Thinking back, it’s kind of funny. He was not trustworthy, yet he too died at the hands of someone who also lacked trustworthiness.” The professor laughed and said. “Trustworthiness is something that may seem to be useless at first glance, but if you are always not keeping to your word, sooner or later you will come to realize that you have, in fact, dug a pit for your own death.”

This was roughly the situation. Sui Xiong could not recall the specific name of that general or which era or generation he was from, but he was convinced of his professor’s teachings. In life, it was indeed important to keep one’s word.

Don’t you see, even films featuring the lifestyle of gangsters had placed emphasis on the need to “keep their word when out in the streets, and if someone says that he will kill an entire family, he’ll do just that…”

“This feels like… something is not right…”

He was talking to himself and could not hold back another sigh.

At that moment, the Void Warship suddenly jerked. Then, it transferred from the state of teleportation and fell back into normal space.

Around the warship, countless Divine Runes were glowing brilliantly with streams of light. They were forming layers of protection that served to block the crevices and fluctuations caused by the rupture of space, therefore avoiding any possible dangers.

“What is the matter?” Sui Xiong suddenly jumped to his feet and asked in a loud voice.

“We were sabotaged!” shouted the Goddess of Pirates. She was responsible for navigating the warship. “Someone has discovered our space coordinates prior to our arrival and tampered with them!”

“It must be the Master of Mystery!” Wenner’s brows were furrowed into a deep frown. He asked viciously, “Where are we now?”

“After we discovered that the coordinates were wrong, we quickly stopped the teleportation to avoid a bad outcome,” the Goddess of Pirates said. “Now, we are roughly somewhere near the Seven Colors God Mountain, which is not too far away from the Country of Rainbow.”

“Let’s fly there straight away!” Wenner immediately decided. “To be able to devise such a trap, it only goes to show their lack of confidence! Now, we will charge our way there and wipe them out! Victory will be ours!”
