Mighty Lord
Chapter 2853 - 907
It appears that the strength Zhou Tian demonstrated wasn’t very strong, yet the true power of Zhou Tian’s ability is something that cannot be overlooked by those high-level Fallen Elves.
Even if the Abyssal creatures summoned by Zhou Tian aren’t as strong as those Fallen Elves, if their numbers increase slightly, those Fallen Elves back then still felt threatened. In other words, at that time, the Abyssal creatures summoned by Zhou Tian indeed had the ability to threaten the high levels of the Fallen Elves.
Moreover, the strength of those Fallen Elves back then was not weak; even though they couldn’t compare to the Gods of the Burrow Spiders, they could definitely be considered top-tier powerhouses in the current world. It is believed that if the number of beings at their level increases, they might even have hope of defeating the originally invincible Gods of the Burrow Spiders.
Thus, the strength Zhou Tian demonstrated at that time was extraordinarily strong for those Fallen Elves. Their power was only personal, whereas Zhou Tian’s ability, if utilized well, was already enough to strengthen a race.
Not all Fallen Elves needed to possess the strength Zhou Tian exhibited; as long as most of the Fallen Elves could summon any kind of Abyssal creature that Zhou Tian summoned, the strength of the Fallen Elf Race could immediately increase several folds. Moreover, with Zhou Tian, who could compare to the Gods of the Spider Tribe, helping and promoting the growth of the Warlock Occupation among the Fallen Elves, the high levels of the Fallen Elves believed that the strongest race in the current world would soon be replaced by the Fallen Elf Race.
Zhou Tian’s arrangement can’t be said to have no weaknesses; if truly cautious, the high levels of the Fallen Elves shouldn’t have agreed to cooperate with Zhou Tian so easily. However, the problem at present was that the conditions Zhou Tian offered were too good, good enough to leave those Fallen Elves without any room for refusal. Therefore, to ensure that the Fallen Elf Race could truly become the strongest race in the world, the bait Zhou Tian threw was something those Fallen Elves had no reason not to bite.
No accident occurred; having not witnessed the ability of the Warlocks, possibly due to Zhou Tian, the Fallen Elves chose to promote the Warlock Occupation. Yet, unless something unexpected happened, the high levels of the Fallen Elves surely wouldn’t put much effort into this matter.
However, because of Zhou Tian’s recent actions, upon realizing the strength of the Warlock Occupation, the mindset of the Fallen Elf high levels underwent corresponding changes. Adhering to their mindset back then, if not unexpected, they would put their utmost effort into making the Warlock Occupation the mainstream combat profession within the Fallen Elf Race.
As for any potential negative impacts that might arise if the Warlock Occupation truly became the mainstream combat profession within the Fallen Elf Race, the high levels of the Fallen Elves couldn’t say they hadn’t considered it, but given the circumstances at the time, these concerns were unlikely to hinder their actions.
Even if there are future repercussions, so what?
For those high levels of the Fallen Elves back then, even if Zhou Tian had his personal little abacus, at worst, the Fallen Elf Race would simply have more contact with him. The worst-case scenario is Zhou Tian becoming the king of the Fallen Elf Race, and although it’s not the outcome most Fallen Elves wished to see, in reality, it wasn’t something those Fallen Elves couldn’t accept.
According to the thoughts of the Fallen Elf high levels at the time, even if Zhou Tian became their king, it wouldn’t matter much to them. Because even if Zhou Tian truly became their king, he would still just be one "person." The members of the Fallen Elf Race wouldn’t change, and even if the queen lost her power, as long as their ideas were followed to enhance the overall strength of the Fallen Elves, it would be extremely beneficial for the Fallen Elf Race.
Moreover, those high levels of the Fallen Elves were confident that such a situation was unlikely.
A very simple principle, no matter how strong Zhou Tian is, he is just one person. If Zhou Tian were backed by a race, the Fallen Elf Race would be more wary. But according to their experience, such beings as Zhou Tian don’t exist in their world. Therefore, although the Fallen Elves at that time didn’t know what "person" Zhou Tian was, they knew Zhou Tian likely didn’t have any tribesmen. Hence, no matter how strong Zhou Tian was at that time, as long as he was alone, the Fallen Elves needn’t worry about him posing a great threat to them.
No matter what, personal strength, no matter how powerful, without corresponding supporters, even the strongest being will eventually face a Human Sea Tactic they can’t withstand.
