Chapter 593: Chapter 572 I Have a Special Strategy Method

Jiang Qiao had still underestimated Silver General, or rather, the initiative of the players.

In the short half-month that the waters of the Forgotten River arrived, the players had relied on the assistance brought by the extermination unit armies to complete the suppression of the spreading Void Swarm.

The Void Erosion that afflicted Queen Mei had thus been transferred to the wasp Knight.

The battlefield under Void Lockdown was still just... an idle battleground for most players.

It was just unknown who had leaked to Thorne the news of Hai Lan planning to have the Sublimation body for lunch.

Today, Thorne found Jiang Qiao.

"I don’t understand."

Jiang Qiao opened a can of Coca-Cola in the instance lord’s dormitory and looked at Thorne, who also sat silently at the round table.

"You want that Sublimation body, that is, Rosh’s mother, to pass away, but you don’t want her to be converted into energy by the Devouring God. Are these two conflicting?"

Jiang Qiao had been with this original Eternal for so long that he could almost guess Thorne’s thought process.

The Sublimation body corrupted by the Void Swarm was Rosh’s mother, and Rosh’s father was probably Thorne.

Thorne still loved Rosh’s mother, which was why he wanted to kill her, to liberate her from the torment of the Void Swarm.

To kill with a sword is to kill, to be devoured by the Devouring God and converted into pure energy is also to kill.

What’s the difference between the two?

"I hope that when she dies, she can be whole," Thorne put away his frivolous demeanor when discussing this matter and said, "At least she can lie down in a coffin for burial."

"..."

Jiang Qiao could understand Thorne’s sentiment, wanting one’s lover to have an intact body for burial was a normal desire.

But...

"I’m afraid I can’t agree to that. We need the power of the Sublimation body to fight against the Army of Annihilation," Jiang Qiao was very firm on this point, as Rosh’s mother herself was the Sublimation body.

The reason Thorne chose to kill Rosh’s mother, rather than save her, was because he knew there was no way to... separate her from the Void Swarm’s corruption.

"Unless you have the ability to take down the Lord of Annihilation," Jiang Qiao said, tossing the now empty Coca-Cola can into the trash.

Thorne also knew he was in the wrong. The opportunity he had to kill the Sublimation body was all thanks to the assistance of the Holy Spirit, but by doing so after they had worked together to kill the Sublimation body... it would be like taking the spoils of war from the Holy Spirit.

"I’m no match for the Lord of Annihilation. The Banishment Power is what I find to be the most bothersome power, second only to the Power of Devouring God."

Without further hesitation, Thorne suddenly took out three statues and placed them on the table. Jiang Qiao paused when he saw the three statues.

They were no ordinary statues; when Jiang Qiao cast his scouting spell on the statues, their life force displayed as question marks.

Scouting spell feedback question marks only suggested two possibilities.

One was that the target’s level was too high, beyond the current scope of the Power of Devouring God to fathom.

The second was the power that breaks all laws... the only Law that is indestructible.

That is the Origin Law, encompassing time, space, and order, the combined force of these three ruling gods.

"Agent, eradicating calamities and balancing the inhabitants of the star chart actually comes with a reward," Thorne pushed three statues toward Jiang Qiao and said.

"I know, during the Black Tide Island campaign, the Order God gave us Divine Power Crystals as a reward."

Jiang Qiao, of course, had received rewards from these three rule gods, among which the Order God gave the most, mainly in the form of Divine Power Crystals.

The Divine Power Crystals on the entire star chart mainly come from this Order God.

"Divine Power Crystals are the most basic and lowest level of reward. In the long years, I have quelled countless calamities ravaging the star chart, and in the process, I have received some very special rewards," Thorne said.

"Special rewards?"

"To make wishes to the three gods." Thorne revealed a reward that could drive the entire star chart’s holy spirits mad with excitement, even more exciting than making a wish to the Devouring God.

"Wait a second... does making a wish mean... I can wish to the Time God to return to the past?"

Jiang Qiao wasn’t particularly interested in wishes for space and order, but if these three rule gods could grant something... like all the Void Swarm in the star chart suddenly dropping dead.

Thorne probably wouldn’t need to go through such a painstaking effort to kill his wife from a thousand miles away, and likely, this would work on the Lord of Annihilation too; the three rule gods can’t kill the Lord of Annihilation.

"Yes."

But Thorne gave Jiang Qiao a... more unexpected answer.

"Then why don’t you use it yourself?" Jiang Qiao noticed a... key issue.

If Thorne could go back in time, he should have found a way to save his wife, creating countless iterations to weave the perfect ending.

That’s what a player should do!

"I’ve tried it, countless times... but the end result is always the same. Time is like a net, no matter where you run, it will catch you back to the original place," Thorne said, picking up the statue representing the Time God, his expression seemingly filled with melancholy.

Is this what they call... the convergence of the timeline?

"So what’s the use of this wish for us? Can I make a wish to the Space God to teleport all the surviving Devouring God fragments in front of me?" Jiang Qiao asked, looking at another statue on the table.

"The Space God has refused, she can’t do it," Thorne said, somewhat helplessly.

"What’s with these rule gods? They can travel through time, but they don’t even have a delivery function?" Jiang Qiao poked the cheek of the statue of the Space God discontentedly, and the statue, not pleased, opened its mouth and bit Jiang Qiao’s finger, "It’s alive?"

Jiang Qiao pulled out his finger, now turned into shattered pieces of light, and soon the system restored his severed limb to its original condition.

"The Time God is willing to assist you. The Power of Devouring God will allow you to break the laws, extending into another parallel plane of the star chart, so any changes you make in the past or the future will not affect this star chart," Thorne said

placing the statue of the Time God back in front of Jiang Qiao.

"Why does this setup feel somewhat familiar?" Jiang Qiao felt he had heard of this setup somewhere before, but he couldn’t be bothered with that now; what he had to do was to collect the Divine Fragments of Hai Lan at all costs.

"Can you help us transport back to the eve of the fall of the previous Devouring God?"

Based on Hai Lan’s past memories, Jiang Qiao could figure out... Hai Lan had simply gone BOOM and had exploded into fragments, just like the Four Souls Jade, with over twenty Divine Fragments scattered across every corner of the star chart.

Currently, Jiang Qiao had six fragments in his possession, but these were far from enough. The simplest and most direct method was to find the previous Devouring God and consume the Divine Fragments before she exploded.

"The answer of the Time God is feasible, and it is also curious about what will happen when the descendant of the Devouring God travels through time," Thorne gave Jiang Qiao a... reply that Jiang Qiao very much wanted to hear.
