Once upon a time there was a greedy snake.

Chapter 280 The Ancient Serpent is Getting Stronger

"Well done, Bruce! That's it!"

In the temporary camp of the God of Courage, Casaloron was also cheering for the victories of the big dogs in the city.

Yes, he really did release these dogs, partly as proof of the friendship between the God of Courage and the local natives, and partly to let these courageous and loyal hunting dogs inspire their master through their actions.

Of course, there was another unspeakable purpose besides that.

That is to disrupt the arrangements of the god of pleasure.

While it's true that the three gods have each found their own path, it's clear that their ultimate goal is still winner-takes-all. So, cooperation has always been just a facade. In reality, who would cooperate at this time? Everyone would rather see the others go out of business so they can take everything for themselves.

Casaloran currently has no way to deal with David Day's arrangements, since David Day is currently too far away, and herbal medicine is an area where he is not very good at exerting his efforts—but Casaloran only needed to glance at the arrangements of the Shadow of Enchantress to know how to proceed.

How can a weak cat compare to a loyal and brave dog?

Since Mei Zhiying can only come up with this level of approach, then he can't be blamed. Everyone here comes from the Star Sea, where it's a true dog-eat-dog world. Since Mei Zhiying has already exposed his weakness, then he shouldn't blame himself for getting beaten up.

"Who told you to try and become the God of Eagles? Now you're already reaping the consequences... huh?"

It was at this moment that Casaloran also suddenly frowned.

Simply because, in his perception, the valiant Bruce was dead.

"Who did it!"

Casalorn's first reaction was to think of the Shadow of Enchantress. After all, he had just ordered Bruce and his men to hunt down the cats in the city, so it was normal for the Shadow of Enchantress to retaliate against him.

"But if you kill the dog yourself... that wouldn't be good for it."

Yes, Casaloran had already thought of that. Whoever killed the dog would make dog owners even more inclined to side with the God of Courage.

Given Meizhiying's skill level, she shouldn't be doing something so thankless and exhausting.

"That's... wait, that ancient serpent couldn't have done that."

Whether it's the ancient serpent lurking outside the city or the mysterious god hiding behind the scenes, they certainly have reasons to act, but they are also the least likely to do it—simply because such a thing is too insignificant, so insignificant that even Casaloran himself wouldn't have thought of it if it weren't for the Shadow of Enchantment doing it.

But it's impossible to say that this kind of mass killing of dogs wasn't orchestrated in secret; there must be someone causing trouble behind the scenes, which Casaloran could sense.

"So...who exactly is it?"

As a seasoned and experienced warrior, Casaloron decided to gather intelligence first.

Then he discovered that the dogs had actually been poisoned.

David Day!

Casalon suddenly raised his head and looked towards the distant mountains.

"You beast!"

……

In the distant Great Mang Mountain, David Day, while directing the Fungal Creep Walkers to grow mushrooms, sat back and watched the two tigers fight with amusement. After all, the Seed of Creation was lost and it seemed unlikely to be retrieved. He was also unable to complete the task given to him by the God of Life, and had even suffered the God of Life's punishment—although the God of Life had not killed him, taking away half of his power was almost the same as taking his life.

Therefore, he should not have to bear this cost alone.

Since he had no hope left, he decided to equally disgust all the participants—and in this respect, his idea unexpectedly coincided with that of the god of life. Thus, after organizing his first caravan, David Day began selling medicine.

"First and foremost, we must ensure that all these indigenous people live forever."

This is actually not a good thing, at least not for the gods. After all, an immortal race means almost unlimited reproduction, and who knows what kind of trouble that will cause—but David Day doesn't care at all now. He's already in this state, so why would he care about the raging flood?

As a result, those special fungi known as "Lingzhi" were transported out, along with some other secret medicines.

For example, attractants and poisons.

The god of pleasure wanted to use such insignificant animals as cats to open up the local faith, but that was unacceptable and was to be deliberately tarnished. So the cats were made to steal meat and become a scourge in people's eyes. As for the hunting dogs that Casaloran brought out, although they knew how to follow the rules and would not be tempted by the food attractant, a little poison was enough to take their fragile lives.

In this way, the cat is dead, the dog is dead, the Shadow of Enchantress's plan is ruined, and Casaloron is not much better off. Sooner or later, the two sides will fight, and he can enjoy the show when they do.

"But this seems to be doing the God of Mysteries a favor..."

Thinking about this, David Day fell into deep thought.

Since the goal is to equally disgust all participants, the God of Mystery cannot remain unaffected. However, the God of Mystery's method of bestowing knowledge free of charge seems impeccable, at least for now, he cannot find any way to counter it.

However, this is not unusual, since the God of Mysteries is known for his scheming and intrigue. If he can outwit the God of Mysteries, then it will be his turn to sit in that position.

"But we still need to think of a way, at least to make that mysterious god's plan less successful..."

David Day was thinking hard.

But at that moment, he suddenly sensed that a batch of medicinal herbs had been poured into the river.

This was clearly not done by his men. After all, his subordinates all knew the value of those medicinal herbs. Herbs that could prolong life were worth a fortune. In fact, even if a caravan was robbed, they would definitely find a place to sell the stolen goods, not just dump them into the river.

Therefore, there is only one truth left.

"You actually used this method to get revenge on me?"

David Day's face immediately darkened.

It's either Phantom or Casaloran; it must be one of them. After all, although he did the poisoning discreetly, a thorough investigation would still lead back to him.

"With a formidable enemy at hand, how can you not understand the importance of unity!"

David Day gritted his teeth.

"Since you committed such a heinous act first, then you can't blame me... Just you wait, you all just wait!"

With this in mind, David Day had already made a decision that might go against the will of the God of Life.

He was going to do something that would truly disgust all the participants.
