Global Evolution: I transplanted the heart of the Supreme God.

Chapter 953 March
After ending the magical communication, Bai Pu let out a soft breath.

The two witches had already heard the whole story when Bai Pu was talking to the legion commander of Gallius.

"Is that so?"

Wu Mingyue murmured, seemingly having a renewed understanding of the intellectual gap between Bai Pu and herself.

Wu Qingyun said:
"Well, Xiaobai must have his reasons for doing this... although I think it's unnecessary."

"If it were me, I would have immediately notified Gallius upon receiving the news yesterday, racing against time. I think the other side definitely couldn't have gotten the information as quickly as Xiaobai's Source Lord Descent Meeting."

Wu Mingyue shook her head and said, "No, the intelligence we got yesterday afternoon was fake. Didn't the Naga matriarch, that Naga Serindra with the silver scales, also say that General Vorenzo and she 'share the same opinion'?"

Wu Qingyun said "Oh," and then added, "So, even if General Vorenzo doesn't go to her, she'll still secretly change the plan... In that case, we'll end up like Viktor, handing in false intelligence and both of us failing our missions!"

Bai Pu smiled and said, "So, it wasn't that we tricked Viktor, but that he underestimated the Naga matriarch."

Wu Mingyue cautioned, "Galius's attitude towards Victor will likely change drastically. Victor might realize that the information he provided was false. Could he follow our example and persuade the Naga matriarch to change her hiding place again, or pull some other trick..."

Bai Pu said, “Your concerns are very valid. However, I have already caught Viktor by the skin of my teeth… I have also assigned Navia (General Vorenzo) a task to monitor this unstable element and eliminate it if necessary.”

After a pause, Bai Pu said with emotion:
"Actually, what I'm most worried about is the outcome of this battle in the spirit world. The Guts-Eaters' camp has been plotting for a long time. This time, when the Sea Prince Rothergal appeared, there was no notification of an interdimensional time-space node or a Scavenger mission. Moreover, the Naga, as the natives of the Black Tide World, actually trust the interdimensional travelers so much... This is all very unusual."

Logically, indigenous people should have a natural aversion and rejection towards travelers from other worlds.

This feeling of disgust and rejection stems from Gaia's will's rejection of the otherworldly travelers.

However, the Naga people in this world are practically inseparable from the Sea Prince Rothergal.

Wu Mingyue said, "Was the previous invasions of Yazd Star and Blue Star by the sea race just a prelude?"

Bai Pu nodded, giving the Great Shaman, who was earnestly reasoning, an approving look: "Your line of thinking is correct, that's exactly it. Moreover, I estimate that there is probably a high-ranking being similar to a divine messenger in the Black Tide World... perhaps it is the divine messenger of the Guts-Eating Clan. The Naga race defied Gaia's will and joined forces with the Otherworldly Travelers because of their faith in Him."

Wu Qingyun finally got a chance to speak: "The demon god Salajal of the Doumo world bewitched a group of natives and beastmen through the demon god mark! But Xiaobai, you've fought the divine messenger before, so Salajal was resealed by you."

The demon god Salajal is the "Crimson Messenger".

Bai Pu smiled bitterly and said, "I was able to seal Salagael in the Demon Fighting World because the Demon Fighting World was only at the first level, and I was already a peak expert in the first level at that time. In this Black Tide World, what am I? At most, I am the strength of an ascended leader, unable to even defeat Garius, let alone deal with the human form of the divine messenger. Our only chance of winning is to stop the Naga's conspiracy and prevent that divine messenger from entering the Black Tide World."

"Moreover, human strength has its limits... I can't be in two places at once; the only thing I can influence is the outcome of the battle on the Empire's side. I'm worried that a similar situation might occur on the barbarian side."

……

Thanks to the Magic Crystal Technology, the Imperial engineers made rapid progress in repairing the Northern Rift Waterway.

This waterway was once a vast underwater canyon. After the lost continent rose, it became a wide channel, with most of it wide enough for magic crystal warships to pass through. A few geographical nodes were narrower and shallower, but thanks to the targeted demolitions by imperial engineers and the magical clearing by wizards, the waterway was successfully opened up without obstruction.

The fact that a high-ranking wizard would be asked to do such dirty and tiring work shows how much the empire's high command desires the rich magic crystal veins behind the "Tidal Cliffs".

After the waterway was cleared, the Imperial warships set sail from "Krysos Port" and traveled along the Rift Valley waterway.

The Naga high command also had intelligence from lurking interdimensional travelers who were monitoring the Imperial warship fleet's navigation trajectory as the army broke out of its camp.

"What, advance along the land route?"

A Naga general exclaimed in astonishment, "But the military conference clearly stated that we should advance along the edge of the waterway..."

The Naga warrior in charge of relaying the order, though merely an enhanced elite, still raised her chin and haughtily stared at the leader-level male Naga general: "This is Lady Serendra's latest order, please obey it."

Ultimately, the Naga are still a matriarchal society. While Lady Serendra's last military conference outlined a marching plan, it was merely a cover for the true objective. Even if Bai Pu didn't push it forward, Lady Serendra would have made revisions.

"All right……"

General Naga resignedly lowered her head, then turned and called out, "Men, pack up the rations and supplies, and get ready to go! Don't forget to take those 'two-legged shrimps' with you!"

The so-called "two-legged shrimp" is actually a human being.

Just as ancient China was invaded by barbarians during its decline and was called "two-legged sheep," these Nagas did not regard humans as human beings either. Instead, they contemptuously referred to them as "fish and shrimp with two legs." They could be used as slaves in peacetime and as food when military rations were insufficient.

However, advancing by land was very uncomfortable for the Naga, much like a human army marching through swamps.

The original plan to advance by water and occasionally relax in the sea has been ruined.

Among the "two-legged shrimp" escorted by the Naga, most of them looked sallow and were originally slaves and laborers; a few who looked stronger were adventurers or noble private soldiers with fighting ability, but their hands were all tightly bound by seaweed ropes.

One of them, a man dressed in a black robe, walked slowly with his head bowed. His skin was pale, his face withered, and his breath was weak; he looked worse than a slave laborer.

Upon hearing that they would be taking the land route instead of the original plan, the man in the black robe frowned slightly.

He followed silently forward, but his fingers were gently twirling.

Behind him, in a place only he could see, a Naga shadow rose silently, like a puppet on a string.

Before long, a Naga guard swam over.
