The Necromancer's Fourth Catastrophe-Chapter 336 - 328: What Do You Think?

Then he quickened his pace towards the faint outline of the island. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Meanwhile, the island was operating as usual.

In a Divine Hall at the very center of the island, four people were conversing.

Two of them were showing considerable respect towards the other two.

"Lord Gai Modessa, the tasks you commanded have been completed. I have informed all the beings on the island to come to the Divine Hall tomorrow evening to pray and praise the great God of Shadow and Chaos."

The speaker was an old man in a yellow robe, full of smiles and respect for the middle-aged man in front of him.

The middle-aged man referred to as Gai Modessa nodded slightly: "Hmm, you did very well. The Divine Hall was completed within the time I requested, and now the matters I ordered are all arranged properly."

"I will recommend you to our high-level forces of Shadow Island; you might be transferred to the territory of our forces."

Upon hearing Gai Modessa’s words, the old man immediately responded with excitement and bowed to him: "Thank you, Lord Gai Modessa, for your appreciation and cultivation. It is my fortune to submit to the forces of Shadow Island, and joining the territory of Shadow Island is my lifelong pursuit."

Hearing the old man’s words, Gai Modessa laughed heartily: "Praise the great God of Shadow and Chaos, the God sees your devotion, and naturally, you will be rewarded."

Upon hearing Gai Modessa’s words, the old man immediately knelt before the statue in the Divine Hall: "Great God of Shadow and Chaos, I vow to serve you for life."

Gai Modessa’s face was full of satisfaction.

The middle-aged woman in a black robe standing beside him had a constantly indifferent expression, as if none of this concerned her.

The other middle-aged man in a purple robe slightly lowered his head, only a faint trace of contempt flickering in his eyes when he glanced at the old man.

Watching the old man stand up, Gai Modessa slowly spoke: "Now that everything is more or less settled, Rileidels shall manage this place. After the islanders praise the great God of Shadow and Chaos tomorrow evening, I will depart."

Saying this, Gai Modessa turned his gaze to the middle-aged woman: "Rileidels, is there any issue?"

The woman referred to as Rileidels nodded slightly, showing no emotion on her face: "Of course, Gai Modessa, I will ensure this place remains under the blessings of the great God of Shadow and Chaos."

Hearing Rileidels’ words, Gai Modessa laughed heartily, then nodded: "That’s good, Rileidels, I trust in your abilities."

After these words, Gai Modessa spoke again: "Let’s leave it as is for now, everyone disperse... hmm?"

The word ’disperse’ was not completely uttered when Gai Modessa suddenly furrowed his brow.

For before Gai Modessa could finish his words, the middle-aged man in the yellow robe, who had been keeping his head down and silent, suddenly widened his eyes, interrupting Gai Modessa:

"How is this possible?"

Among the four present, three were mages, only the middle-aged man in the yellow robe was a knight.

Wangzai Little Buns among them had no dual-class players, they were all standard players, so these mages naturally did not detect anything unusual, but the middle-aged man in the yellow robe did.

Gai Modessa gazed dangerously at the middle-aged man in the yellow robe: "You’d better give me a suitable explanation."

Since taking over this peripheral force not long ago, this middle-aged man in the yellow robe had been somewhat uncooperative.

Fortunately, the other elder was quite cooperative, instructing the ordinary beings on the island to build this Divine Hall.

If not for the elder’s plea, he would have probably eliminated the middle-aged man in the yellow robe by now.

After all, they secretly controlled, leaving only one visible figure was enough.

All along, their strategy has remained unchanged—if the other side submits willingly, there’s nothing more to say, they would send someone secretly to supervise and control.

If they resist, they would eliminate part of them, leaving at least one visible head of power, then send someone to control in the shadows.

If the resistance was fierce, and none were willing to submit, they would slaughter them all, slowly transporting the accumulated resources and populace of the opposing forces back to their own territories.

It wasn’t just the forces of Shadow Island doing this; the other inner circle major forces were mostly the same.

The difference lay in the faith—like Shadow Island, which was an inner circle major force with a faith, the faith in the God of Shadow and Chaos.

They needed believers, so they wouldn’t indiscriminately kill ordinary beings, but those inner circle major forces without a faith were different.

Unless their territories felt there were too few slaves at the bottom, not enough to oppress, they would usually choose direct annihilation.

Of course, this was only for those peripheral forces that swore never to yield; if they were willing to submit, or if some of the high-level members were willing, they preferred to control in secret.

In this way, the controlled peripheral forces would continuously produce and plunder resources, transporting them back to their inner circle forces’ territories.
