Judging from the length and specificity of Kurima's remarks, she was not particularly friendly towards the man who had suddenly barged in.

Rather than saying that he was slightly more at ease when facing the Dragon God and the two goddesses, this World Dragon did not have particularly friendly interactions with the entire Celestial Realm at that time.

Since the Heavenly Department can't do anything about her, she can be a little more outspoken.

In addition... she and Indra, or rather, she and Indra, were actually old acquaintances—back when the other was still a demon king.

Even with his thick skin, Emperor Shitian, now shrouded in a layer of thunderclouds, seemed momentarily stunned by the rebuke. He then waved his hand, and the thunderclouds gradually dispersed, with the two bulls kneeling in agreement.

"What you're saying is, wasn't all this grand to match yours? After all, your entourage isn't small either; you alone are enough to create a breathtaking spectacle. Hmm... But on the other hand, although I'd heard you were a female dragon before, seeing you in this form for the first time now, I realize that some parts are disproportionately small..."

World King Kurima, also known as the World Dragon, is a dragon that carries the world on its back. Its spirit level is in the double digits, and it possesses the quality of a world. Even a casual chop of its foot can shake the Little Garden.

Faced with such a being, Indra decisively uttered remarks that bordered on sexual harassment, and then stepped down from his chariot.

At this moment, the God-King was dressed in a suit with a deliberately unbuttoned shirt, and was also smoking a cigarette, his style completely out of place with the chariot behind him.

Even though Izayoi was used to this style, she still looked at the God King with a mixture of admiration and disdain because of his previous remarks.

Sensing the disdain, Di Shitian shrugged.

"Don't worry, I'm only interested in married women."

"...You, do you have some kind of masochistic tendency?"

Kuon Asuka, who was seeing this 'God King style' for the first time behind Izayoi, gaped in astonishment.

"Ah, that guy has always been like this, whether it's self-destruction or being a pervert, he's always been top-notch."

At this moment, Kurima, who was being harassed, seemed to have thought of something interesting, tilting his head and revealing a mischievous smile that matched his age.

It was a smile that seemed like a little girl wanting to play, but was actually an old woman reminiscing about the past.

However, her mouth didn't stop.

"Alright, I've said enough to ease the tension, so what exactly are you here for?"

"Ha... I'm in charge of communication between the Little Garden and the outside world. Is it strange that I'm here to welcome you guys from the Demon King Alliance, which is the point of contact between the Little Garden and the outside world? As for you, did you come here just to make a show of things and introduce yourself?"

Indra looked at the flag still fluttering atop the world's dragon head.

His words, however, caught the attention of the girl behind Izayoi.

"Wait...you mean the Demon King Alliance?"

Having spent several years in the miniature garden, the name is no longer as unfamiliar to the two girls as it once was.

At least, they knew it was a suspected community that had caused them trouble several times... Even without considering that, the name alone was unsettling enough.

The two of them now were no longer as unrespectful of the Demon King's name as they had been in the past.

“'Avatāra'—Based on the extensive search and investigation of the Demon King Alliance during this period, it should be an organization affiliated with it.”

Izayoi squinted and gave a reply.

The Heavenly Army has been quite busy these past two years. The Demon King Alliance has also left many traces due to Black Wind's almost reckless actions. In addition, the poet Orpheus has generously provided intelligence, allowing the Heavenly Army to launch an attack with unprecedented strength and resources. There have been three major battles that have caused the outer sect to be abandoned, and a considerable number of results have been achieved, including a growing amount of intelligence.

Izayoi also obtained some of this intelligence, and now has a nearly complete understanding of the internal structure of the Demon King Alliance.

"No, rather than a subordinate organization, the Demon Lord's Alliance has been severely weakened in the past two years, yet Avatāra has gained Kurima's participation..."

Izayoi learned the World Dragon's real name from the conversation just now, and naturally knew the meaning that the name represented.

Even if the Demon King Alliance remains intact, this person's intervention is enough to change the situation.

and……

“That’s right. Avatāra was a grassroots organization of the Demon Lord Alliance… But that’s all in the past. The World King made it very clear, didn’t he? ‘Avatāra’ itself is a royal group. In other words, the members gathered under ‘Avatāra’ are no longer just Demon Lords.”

His Highness stepped forward and offered an explanation with a smile.

"exactly."

World Dragon echoed this sentiment, then revealed a mischievous smile once more.

"Indra, and Orpheus and Byakuya too, what kind of expressions will you guys make if I win this game... Just imagining it makes me so excited."

The next moment, a shadow fell over the World Dragon's smile.

"---Then let's start with a preliminary battle."

In an instant, the space where the altar was located was filled with the roar of battle, and then everything turned to dust.

Chapter 786 Response

The footage played at the observatory was nothing but static.

Although it was impossible to capture the current appearance of the altar after Kurima slightly unleashed his spiritual power, it was probably not very complete.

"That guy Kurima..."

Bai Ye pressed her forehead, feeling an even bigger headache than before... She felt that ever since joining this strange group, she had gone from being the one who caused trouble to being the one who cleaned up the mess and complained about it.

"I guess you could say he still has some sense? Luckily, that guy didn't make a move himself..."

The Primal Protoss sighed.

Although the outbreak of Lingo caused the observatory's observations to be interrupted, Kurima's side did not seem to have taken any extreme actions.

This Star Sovereignty War is fought in a proxy mode... Although there are relevant regulations that allow the principal to provide assistance, it is against the rules to allow the principal to directly attack the other party in any way.

After all, that could very well escalate into a conflict between the clients... Given Kurima's rank and position, it could even escalate into a direct conflict between the heavenly army and the 'Ten Heavenly Kings Group' mentioned by the other side.

The situation of the Ten Heavenly Kings mentioned by the other side is currently unclear. Fighting Kurima alone without any preparation, regardless of the outcome, will not benefit the heavenly army. It will only disrupt the plan and add unnecessary variables.

Not to mention, if they were to face the entire Ten Heavenly Kings, it would be difficult to resolve the situation in one go if they were not well prepared—in fact, it would be impossible to resolve the situation in one go if they were facing a group of two-digit kings—it might turn into a protracted war like in the past, which would only give the Heavenly Army more headaches.

Of course, the same should apply to Kurima's side... unless they just enjoy being troublemakers.

However, even if it's just one Kurima, it's unlikely that there would be more than ten, or at least four figures, or even more than half of them being exceptional individuals. Would an organization be so bored as to do something like this?

Not to mention that the guy was originally from the Demon King Alliance... Although the Demon King Alliance as a whole has been weakened by the Heavenly Army, the core part has always been very cautious. Apart from the fact that the current situation of Black Heaven is unknown, it has not suffered much damage. The current Ten Heavenly Kings group is likely the product of this part being integrated with Avatāra.

Presumably, that style hasn't completely disappeared; one can roughly tell from the fact that only Kurima has come forward so far.

It was inevitable that it would not escalate into a direct conflict.

What do you think?

Bai Ye frowned and sought advice from her companions.

"Hmm... this isn't exactly a surprising development, is it? It's rather ordinary. After all, we're the strongest. The weak can only unite against the strong, and there's nothing we can do about it."

Omega lay down, adopting a half-asleep posture while displaying a bored expression.

The interference from the Demon King Alliance and Kurima was somewhat expected, and even if the two joined forces, it shouldn't be impossible to deal with.

"Anyway, no matter how powerful the so-called Ten Heavenly Kings group that Kurima mentioned are, they can't directly intervene in the game within the rules."

Methods outside the rules... that's the Demon King.

As for dealing with the Demon King, Tianjun has some experience. If the Demon King behaves himself and plays within the rules, it's fine. But if he insists on disrupting the game, Tianjun may have no choice but to temporarily abandon the existing plans and focus most of his attention on dealing with him, in order to prevent these unscrupulous guys from continuing to cause trouble and have a greater impact on the future.

This is undoubtedly the worst-case scenario that only allows a third party to reap the benefits. At the level of two digits, the quantity issue becomes relatively minor, and it is difficult to see the end of the struggle between them. So far, the two-digit forces that the Heavenly Army has defeated, whether it is the anti-utopia or the White Night, have all relied on the principle of "I have more than you in two digits, and no matter how powerful you are, you can only passively defend first", and have also consumed a considerable amount of time and resources.

"If we are to face the worst-case scenario, we must take them all at once and do it as quickly as possible... We need to start making targeted preparations for this now."

Although for a two-digit number of people, the effects of their preparations, whether beforehand or starting now, are probably not going to be significant.

But something is better than nothing.

The first thing to start is the intelligence war, which is the Sky Army's advantage and there's no reason to give it up.

"The observatory has begun searching for information about the Ten Kings based on Kurima's intelligence."

Alpha spoke up to answer his sister.

"However... judging from the names, as well as Kurima's and that candidate for the original text, we can make some guesses about the scope of that group of Ten Heavenly Kings... If it really is those ten, then this guy's words are largely a bluff."

The other party mentioned 'Kali Yuga,' a term that Rama the Axe-Holder had also mentioned, referring to the apocalyptic view in Hindu mythology.

Combining the identities of Kurima and Garji, its core is nothing more than Indian mythology, and it can be further narrowed down based on this.

Vishnu's ten avatars each possess the power of ten kings on a cosmic scale.

Or perhaps... the ten universes held in the palm of the final incarnation—the Last King.

"Honestly, Vishnu is the real troublemaker, not Kurima, is he?"

"Anyway, we're practically each other's incarnations, so it's pretty much the same..."

Omega responded to Baiye's complaints in a half-dreaming, half-awake state, before opening her eyes again.

"However, if we have time, we can also call Brahma and Shiva over and ask them what exactly is going on."

"Ha... Although they are called the Triad Gods, these three have had no connection for a long time."

Bai Ye smiled.

"But it's quite interesting to be able to call Brahma over and give him a lecture."

She hadn't forgotten the grudge of being pierced through the chest back then. After she 'submitted,' that guy Brahma never once appeared within the Heavenly Army's territory... even though he was considered a member of the Heavenly Army.

It would be more appropriate to ask the Buddha, who was also an incarnation of Vishnu, to inquire about the situation after the Buddhist sect replaced the heavenly realm and signed the alliance contract.

Bai Ye thought about it more and more and felt that her current position was quite good. Although the Heavenly Army was an equal three-community alliance without a clear leader, in terms of the Heavenly Army's business scope, it was basically led by Ouroboros. Moreover, it colluded with Thousand Eyes. In situations where it was not a unanimous vote, it was always two votes to one vote. No matter what, everyone else had to give them face in these business matters.

When Indra was in a hurry to unify the forces of order, he probably didn't expect to lose the initiative... but judging from his current appearance, he seems to be enjoying it.

That guy probably already had a change of heart back in Heaven.

But no matter how united the Heavenly Army is internally, external problems still need to be solved.

"In short, we'll continue to leave the external issues to Indra... and we'll leave the investigation of the Ten Heavenly Kings to you, Bai Ye. Is that alright?"

"Yes, yes, I understand."

Bai Ye, who had just started to think positively, was pulled back to reality by Alpha and pouted.

She was the person directly in charge of this game. Compared to the Stargazing Platform, which would be much less effective for those who broke the rules, tracing back the Ten Heavenly Kings from the perspective of the organizer's authority might be more efficient.

Moreover, Baiye was in charge of the inner courtyard, and Tianbu was in charge of the outer courtyard. It was common for these three to sit there every day, drinking tea and chatting while pretending to work very seriously and watching the show.

"However... just like that Black Sky, even though their goal is to overcome apocalypticism, in the end they still end up hindering and destroying each other like this..."

"This means they know that what they're doing is absolutely unacceptable to us."
