Chapter 1887: Nyarlathotep’s Overt Plot

“This is a test!”

Bloody spoke to Lin Huang through voice transmission instantly.

“Regular dominator-level rank-9 powerhouses definitely can’t destroy the ootheca. He left it here intentionally, most probably as a threat, to test whether we have any powerhouses who can destroy the ootheca.”

“To them, someone who could destroy the ootheca should be viewed as a great threat. If nobody could destroy it from the beginning and resolve this crisis, it would basically mean that nobody in the infinite universe is a threat to them. However, if anyone could destroy it, they would plan a strategy that focused on the powerhouse that destroyed the ootheca.”

“He even told the breeding rule of the ootheca on purpose to let us know that their ootheca would breed more Dominators, and that they would grow more powerful over time. They’re forcing us to send enough Dominators to fight them.”

“Him using this ootheca is enough to test how many Dominators there are in the infinite universe. They could even find out how many dominator-level rank-9 powerhouses we have exactly and how powerful their abilities are.”

“Because on the ninth day, the ootheca would breed 256 dominator-level rank-9 powerhouses. On the tenth day, it would breed 512 dominator-level rank-9 powerhouses. The total number of dominator-level rank-9 powerhouses we have is less than one-tenth of this number. It means we can only send the more powerful dominator-level rank-9 powerhouses over in order to suppress them.”

“Later on, the dominator-level rank-9 powerhouses the ootheca breeds would become more powerful every ten days. It’s forcing us to show our trump card over and over again.”

“When they’ve seen through our trump cards, it’ll be time for the Abyssal army to descend completely!”

“So what do we do now? Maybe I’ll kill that ootheca directly?!” Lin Huang frowned and suggested this idea to resolve the situation.

“That would only cause the Abyssal army to arrive even sooner,” Bloody denied the suggestion directly. “What you need most now is time.”

“What else can we do to resolve this situation?” Lin Huang asked further.

“Actually… we don’t have to resolve it,” Bloody aired her thoughts directly, “Since they are trying to find out the infinite universe’s trump cards, then just let them be. We need the buffer time as well.”

“No matter how they test us, as long as you don’t attack, you’d be our final trump card!”

Lin Huang fell silent momentarily. “Then many people might die…”

“If you attacked, Aza would arrive even sooner. When that happens, if you can’t defeat Aza, all of the living beings in the entire infinite universe would be contaminated and be transformed into Abyssal creatures.”

“The only thing we can do now is to buy as much time as possible for you. The more powerful you become, the more hope we have to defeat Aza.” Bloody was very determined.

“Even if I don’t fight, First Liege will definitely attack.” Lin Huang very soon thought of another factor.

First Liege’s ability was on par with Aza’s Primordium.

With his ability, it was not a big problem to kill this ootheca.

“He will not appear so soon as well,” Bloody said with certainty, “Since Heaven’s Secret treats him as their trump card to fight Aza, they’ll definitely hide his real ability until Aza shows up. Because only by doing that can they catch Aza off-guard! Also, those people from Heaven’s Secret are well aware of what Nyarlathotep is plotting.”

Lin Huang fell into a long period of silence after hearing what Bloody said.

He knew very well what would happen in the end if First Liege and him did not fight.

However, he also knew that, in order to secure the final victory, there were some sacrifices that could not be avoided.

“I suggest that you don’t observe the movements of this ootheca for now,” Bloody reminded.

She worried that Lin Huang would fail to hold back his desire to fight when he saw many powerhouses dying.

“Don’t worry. My will isn’t that shaky.” Lin Huang shook his head lightly.

Bloody’s voice transmission ended quickly, while Lin Huang looked toward where the ootheca was again.

There were some Dominators gathered there.

Since they heard about the ootheca’s breeding rule from Nyarlathotep, naturally, many of them had the same thought as Lin Huang did, which was to destroy the ootheca before it bred Dominators that were a threat to them!

At first, everyone stayed far away. They only dared to observe from a distance.

However, some of them soon began to approach it slowly. They were 100 kilometers around the ootheca, yet they had not been attacked.

“This thing doesn’t seem to attack consciously,” a dominator-level rank-1 powerhouse who entered the 50-kilometer-radius around the ootheca could not help but yell.

“You can only say that it doesn’t have the intention to initiate attacks,” someone faraway corrected, “But it definitely has a defensive mechanism. Otherwise, it’s impossible that Nyarlathotep would leave it here just like that.”

“Isn’t it just a big piece of meat? There are no scales, wings or hair. It doesn’t even have skin. Its defense should be rather low,” someone objected quickly.

“Hit it and see!” Someone faraway yelled while smiling, “If you can destroy it directly, you’ll earn yourself a lot of credit!”

“Watch me!” It was a plump and short sword cultivator who said that.

His combat strength was at dominator-level rank-2. He was actually considered among the more powerful of those gathered here.

After charging the long sword in his hand, he swung it.

A golden sword gleam shot at the ootheca like a crescent moon.

It hit the ootheca almost immediately. However, it vanished as if the attack had hit something unshakable.

Most importantly, they did not see any defensive mechanisms outside the ootheca.

The dominator-level rank-2 sword cultivator’s close to full-force attack did not leave a mark on the ootheca at all.

“It took the attack just like that?!” Someone among the crowd mumbled softly.

Right at that moment, something strange happened.

A thick tentacle on the ootheca suddenly subdivided itself into a whip that was the size of an arm. It was shot out quickly, slicing the plump man who swung the sword gleam into half cleanly.

Almost at the same time, two whips came out from the same tentacle. They turned into two pipes that pierced the man’s sliced corpse at blinding speed.

The corpse began to dry up at a speed that was visible to the naked eyes. Shortly after, the corpse turned into dust altogether.

The Dominators who were closer to the ootheca retreated quickly when they saw that. They retreated hundreds of kilometers away.

However, those tentacles did not go after them.

They seemed to only have attacked in response to the man’s earlier attack.

Lin Huang saw everything from faraway.

The attack from the whip gave Lin Huang a rough idea of the ootheca’s level of ability.

“Judging by the strength of the attack, it’s at the level of a dominator-level rank-9 powerhouse that has mastered close to quadrillion chaotic cosmoses. In order to break through its defense, perhaps only powerhouses who have abilities on par with the Outer Gods are capable of doing so…”
