Lord Of The World: I Become The Lord Of The Desert From The Start Novel - Chapter 746
746 Chapter 462: Leading the Team Attack [1/3]
Richard sensed the subtlety and profoundly stared at the god of deception.
He didn’t dwell on him and said in a deep voice. “Your Excellency Tai Long, can you sever the connection between this plane and the abyss if we give up on destroying the spider churches and directly attack the spider temple instead?”
The enemy had already reacted, so he had to prepare for the worst.
They would fight a war of attrition with him to stall for time if the other party set up a trap and heavily guarded one or two churches.
Then he would have to take an even higher risk.
Time was on the side of the spiders. The victor would only belong to the enemy if this dragged on.
However, the key to this was the twelve spider churches.
They couldn’t impede the space passage between the spider temple unless they pulverized the spider churches.
The situation would develop an outcome he wouldn’t want to face if he directly attacked the spider temple.
The enemy’s troops could provide support at any time.
Richard didn’t want to clash head-on with Lolita’s base camp.
The god of deception sparingly narrowed his eyes and straightly looked into Richard’s eyes.
“It’s not difficult to sever the connection with the abyss… The spiders built the spatial passageways with the bodies of gods.”
“I could cause the spatial passageway to collapse as long as I regain control of my heart.”
Tai Long hesitated as he spoke.
“But I must break the magic array inside. That would be my biggest problem. No one should disturb me during this process.
“I could try if you could delay that transcendent wax demon and block the spider goddess if she descends.”
Richard narrowed his eyes.
He pondered for a long time. He slowly said afterward, “Let’s go to the next spider church first. We will clear the church before we attack the spider temple if the enemy doesn’t have enough troops!”
He could have said that, but he still prepared for the worst things to happen.
A nightmare mode dungeon and an S-rank mission are stacked together. These brought the difficulty of the dungeon sky-high.
He had to plan for the worst possible scenario.
“As you wish.”
The god of deception understood Richard’s intentions and said no more.
Richard ordered the entire troop to advance.
The troop turned around and charged at the next spider church.
However, the situation he was most unwilling to face happened! The spiders emptied a few churches!
Richard felt the lingering spider aura in the sky above the ninth spider church. His gaze turned grave.
He opened the system map and revealed only four targets left; the 10th, 11th, and 12th spider churches.
A key was also in the center. It was the spider temple.
The three spider churches formed a triangle around the spider temple.
They were each other’s horns.
The distance between them was less than 20 kilometers.
The enemy would be the first to rush to the rescue if they marched at full speed once the battle started.
He would have to face a group of evil lifeforms prepared for battle if he were to rush forward.
The transcendent level wax demon guarded it, and a passage connected to the abyss behind it. That was what was even worse.
The spider goddess that made the bottomless abyss tremble could descend whenever and wherever she pleased.
Before him was a difficult situation.
What should he do next?
“Lord Qingqiu, we don’t seem to have a choice.”
The god of deception looked at the empty underground spider church with a complicated expression.
In this situation, his lies and deception were useless.
Deceive the spiders? Spider goddess Lolita even watched her believers!
What a joke!
He could not die yet.
Tai Long realized the true meaning of Richard’s words again.
Power was eternal.
He had used deception and lies. The path to becoming a true expert had also distanced from him despite the massive profits he previously earned.
Why would he have to rely on a mortal in this situation if he had the power of the god of war?
He sighed and hoarsely said, “One last gamble, Lord.”
“Send the god’s ancient tree to stall the demon wax with its abomination power. I’ll retrieve the heart. We must reactivate the heart before Lolita descends. That’s the only way we can obtain the final victory!”
Richard was surprised to see the grave look in his eyes.
‘How could the other party say such words?’
“Your Excellency Tai Long, I admire your courage.”
“But this doesn’t seem to be Your Excellency’s style.”
The god of deception shook his head slowly.
“I’ve figured out some problems that have troubled me for a long time… Perhaps, you are right. Deception and lies wouldn’t make me a true expert!”
“These two godhoods are the source of my power, but they shouldn’t be my restraints.”
“My divine duty previously restricted me. And I even forgot how I became a god!”
He spoke, and his eyes lit up.
The people felt he was a king with his majestic posture, despite his weakness.
He… After all, he was a god.
He was the god of deception everyone despised, so what?
Who among those who could become gods was weak?
From the beginning of the world to the present, how many gods were born in the “Shining Era”?
This existence had won from the competition of billions of lives.
The beast seemed to have escaped from its cage while still tied.
Richard looked at him deeply.
“Your Excellency Tai Long, I wish you luck in your search for the path.”
“I hope that in the future, I’ll be able to witness the birth of a Sovereign.”
