Chapter 1346: Chapter 889: Covenant_3
Upon hearing Adam’s words, Tao Yu felt both disappointed and somewhat relieved.
The disappointment was that he was ultimately under the control of a True God, and notably one belonging to the All-Knowing and All-Powerful Pathway.
But the good news is that as long as it’s not the True Creator from the All-Knowing Pathway, it’s not something that is entirely unacceptable.
The only troublesome thing was that the high price he once paid to obtain the trait revealed his intentions too plainly; Adam knows he possesses the Sequence 2 trait of the Fallen Path!
However, up to now, both sides have tacitly avoided mentioning this matter.
Moreover, Adam and the God of Knowledge and Wisdom are also in a potentially adversarial relationship...
If handled properly, there might be an opportunity to complete a trade with the God of Knowledge and Wisdom.
Calculating it, the knowledge he currently possesses actually makes for an excellent bargaining chip for this trade.
This is not merely about outside intelligence, but also includes a wealth of knowledge cultivated since the Marvel World!
"However, it can wait for now. First, complete the collection of three pieces of Sequence One, 3+0 Angel King, plus my own enhancement. Even if I lack the singular authority, I should have a certain ability to directly contend with a True God, instead of just fleeing..."
Tao Yu wouldn’t be overly optimistic in overestimating himself, nor would he undervalue himself rashly!
"Previously, the intelligence on singularity was part of the additional reward I offered you, free of charge, and I still possess intelligence on the Primeval Witch, with which I wish to achieve an exchange with you. At least, before any real conflict of interest arises, I wish to secure your friendship."
Adam’s subsequent words caused Tao Yu to pause, then he readily agreed and extended his palm.
"I think that’s reasonable."
The assassination of George III, which he executed, presumably has a certain impact on Adam’s forthcoming plans and even the god-making ceremony!
From the perspective lacking the singularity of the God of Death, Tao Yu thinks Adam desires Loen to actively respond to the war, thereby expanding the scale of the entire war from a conflict between two countries to sweeping across the entire continent.
Hence, Tao Yu believes that he, who is entirely outside Adam’s chessboard, yet already possesses the strength of an Angel King, is probably still a headache for Adam.
Securing himself is key to Adam’s god-making ceremony.
"The Four Emperor War’s details, Medici has likely already informed you, but it also involves another matter..."
Adam paused for a moment, then looked at Medici.
"You must also be curious why I’d rather support Tudor in crossing pathways than support you, right?"
"Heh, what’s curious about that? You don’t acknowledge..., the creator, fearing that I might assist Him after becoming a god. Perhaps you’re also somewhat concerned about the mutation of the City of Calamity."
Medici remarked sarcastically.
He too was unaware of Adam’s role as representing the divine aspect; in fact, Adam and the True Creator are considered one entity, just a question of who compromises to whom, pressing moments allowing for direct integration at any time.
"That’s part of the reason; back then I also wanted to complete a validation, but things got out of control later, forcing me to prematurely drive the eruption of the Four Emperor War, resulting in no winners..."
Adam still maintained a calm demeanor.
Even if the Ancient Sun God benevolently saved humanity from the Second Epoch, bringing true order to the world.
But only the divine Adam, to some extent, could recount the Four Emperor War he initiated with a rational and peaceful mindset.
"You promoted it prematurely? Weren’t they fighting among themselves? You may influence True God, but not to such an extent."
Medici, having become an evil spirit at the time, was unaware that this was caused entirely by Adam!
——
"On my own, indeed it’s impossible, but I could feel Tudor and the Primeval Witch wanted to assassinate me..., so it was still feasible to use them to achieve this."
Adam’s calm words took both Medici and Tao Yu by surprise.
"You helped Tudor become a god, yet He wanted to kill you? Is it the frenzied impact of cross pathways?"
While looking curious, Medici also felt somewhat gleeful.
Look!
Retribution, right!
Such a pity it didn’t succeed...
As for Tao Yu, he integrated Adam’s previous words, then ponderingly said:
"So, you mean the Primeval Witch teamed up with Tudor? The intelligence you mentioned is related to this? How could they cooperate? That doesn’t seem plausible..."
Tao Yu always considered Chick as an imaginary enemy due to the irreconcilable conflict!
Since the position of Red Priest is still vacant, this conflict itself is greater than the contradiction with the True Creator, and much larger than future indirect conflict with Adam.
Besides, his male witch identity has already mocked them face-to-face, seeing Black Saintess and Trissy’s expressions reveals their anger.
Yet the outcome is, Tudor and Chick, who should be fighting relentlessly upon meeting due to their irreconcilable conflict, actually intend to cooperate to assassinate Adam?
"I still cannot determine what exactly they did, but it must be something extremely dangerous. Moreover, recently, I’ve noticed that it might be because of the Abyss influence you mentioned. Chick’s situation is a bit peculiar, seemingly suppressing something..."
Adam paused here for a moment, before continuing.
"Therefore, what I need to remind you is, if the Abyss enjoys enhancing chaos, then you cannot treat Chick as an ordinary True God in your approach..."
...
George III has been assassinated...
This shocking news spread throughout the streets and alleys.
Someone audaciously entered the Imperial Palace, subsequently killing the current King of Loen, George III, under the watchful eyes of many!
