Wizard's Journey

Chapter 1981 Abyss Battlefield (Part Six)

"How much do you sorcerers know about wizards?"

In the world of the Deception Masters, a Great Arhat Vajra asked the Deception Master Sage a question.

The two sat facing each other, drinking Spring Bait Tea, a specialty of the Trickster World Group. Because Tricksters were born from the mysterious power of natural laws, they had a special fondness for the mysterious power of nature. Coincidentally, the excrement of a certain moth in this world group before it dies in autumn contains a strange power, and with its special fragrance, the excrement of this moth before it dies in autumn was made into this Spring Bait Tea.

The wise man took a sip from the bamboo tube and wooden cup, and said in a low voice, "Speaking of which, the Tricksters' understanding of wizards is probably far greater than that of the Ironblood Galaxy. If it weren't for the loss of the Sword in the Stone, which prevented the birth of a new saint, the Tricksters would have lost their strongest military deterrent and would have been forced to adopt a conservative strategy. Otherwise, we should have been the ones inviting the wizards."

With a sigh, the sage put down the bamboo teacup in his hand.

Saints, sages, wise men, and fools each have their own strengths within the clan of sorcerers. In normal times, saints are almost always the most leisurely and the most insignificant; otherwise, there would be no saying, "The sword in the stone remains unopened."

Unfortunately, in this era of external war, military force trumps everything, and the Saints represent the strongest military force of the Tricksters. However, because of that great war, not only did the previous generation of Saints perish, but the Sword in the Stone was also lost, causing the Tricksters clan to lose the possibility of the next generation of Saints advancing.

On the other hand, in stark contrast to the scarecrow image of the Saint of Deception, the Great Arhat Vajra is an eight-armed humanoid creature with a golden body and no hair. Its facial features are largely the same as those of a wizard, and several different colored halos shine behind its head, making it beautiful, solemn and mysterious.

"It's earth-shattering! I had long heard of the Stone Sword of the Deceptive Master Clan, which was often mentioned by the Brahma Ancestor. It's a pity that I was unable to witness its power this time."

After saying this, the Great Arhat Vajra also put down his teacup and sighed gently.

"However, there is still one more thing. Now that we have received information from the Plane Watchers that the Abyss Demons are opening the Illusionary Gate, why are you still encouraging Ironblood Galaxy to insist on having the Wizards join the Alliance, causing our vested interests to suffer greatly as a result? After all, it is rumored that this race does indeed have extraordinary cohesion and creativity, and its strength is astonishing. The surrounding world clusters have been defeated by them and can no longer pose any threat to them."

Upon hearing that Brahma wanted to witness the power of the Sword in the Stone, the wise man paused slightly. However, after the other party turned the conversation back to the wizard, the wise man, the master of deception, stopped talking about the Sword in the Stone and instead turned to the wizard.

"Actually, regarding the wizard, although it was I who secretly instigated Ironblood Galaxy to invite him, it was the Fool who actually controlled everything. There's no need to say more; I think you understand."

The Master of Deception said with profound meaning.

Fool!

Now that they have reached this level, they have a certain understanding of those mysterious mysticisms, dimensional spacetime, laws of cause and effect, and the rules and principles of all things. Therefore, they naturally have some understanding of the Fools of the Trickster clan, just as the True Spirit Wizards in the Wizarding World are reluctant to talk about the Fourth Ring True Spirit Wizards.

"Very well... Let's talk about something practical. How many votes will the council grant to wizards? The Brahma Vajra doesn't care, and the attitude of the Boundless Divine Alliance is still unclear. However, the Frost Devouring Beast clan is very dissatisfied with only having sixty-six votes! According to them, our clan's Brahma Ancestor has not arrived, while the Frost Beast King has personally come to the battlefield, which makes them very unhappy. Now that the Plane Monitors have received clear information from the Abyss Demons, for the greatest benefit of the Brahma Vajra, the Brahma Ancestor is on his way and should arrive soon. At that time, he will represent the Brahma Vajra in negotiations with the Frost Devouring Beasts."

The sorcerer paused for a moment, then fell silent.

To be honest, the Tricksters are not the biggest threat to any race, and all races are willing to befriend them. This is because the Tricksters have almost no strong desire for external expansion. Now that the Sword in the Stone has been lost, this tendency has become more obvious.

The fact that this Great Arhat Vajra came to my place was by no means just to be a guest and ask some random questions. The relationship between the Trickster Clan and the Sanskrit Vajra was not that close.

Moreover, judging from the questions asked by the other party, although they seemed casual on the surface, they all pointed to the sensitivities hidden in the background. It is very likely that they were testing the attitude of the Ghost Transformation Masters. In fact, although these three foreign races appear to be full of contradictions on the surface, they are actually trying to compete with the Iron Blood Star River, the Mother Nest, and the Ghost Transformation Masters, whose strength has been greatly reduced due to years of fighting against the Abyss, in order to increase their overall voting power.

In fact, the overall absolute strength of this council should have overwhelmed the forces that the Abyss Clan had committed to this battlefield. However, because the various clans were fighting separately, the smaller clans tended to preserve their strength, fearing that they would be wiped out if their rulers were to suffer an accident. Meanwhile, the larger clans were constantly competing with each other to maximize their own interests. The middle-sized clans, similar to the various Spring Ancestors, wanted to get a share of the pie without investing too much strength. How could they possibly fight against the united Abyss Demon Ancestors?

It is precisely because of all these reasons that, in order to resist the expansion of the Abyss World, the various races had to gather an alliance council with a strength several times that of the Abyss World, to form a balance with it and then slowly suppress it.

Having considered many things, the wise man's answer became even more cautious.

"The conflict between the Sanskrit Vajra and the Frost Devouring Beast is not something the Demon Transformation Master clan can explicitly intervene in. When the Brahma Ancestor arrives, the two clans will hold a meeting to discuss it. If that doesn't work, we can put it on the agenda of the council and resolve it together with the issue of the wizards' voting rights. As for the wizards' voting rights, our three clans have exchanged opinions. The previous rule remains the same: depending on the strength of the wizard legion, one hundred votes will be the upper limit. Each clan can evaluate this and take the middle value. But in any case, there is no doubt that the wizards will become the seventh major clan in this abyss battlefield."

The voting rights of the three immigrant groups, including those small ethnic groups, also arose from this system.

The advantage of this system is its objectivity. Overestimating the situation would mean losing one's own interests, while underestimating it would be tantamount to creating an enemy. It needs to be carefully considered.

I obtained almost no valuable or clear information.

"Very well! In this way, apart from the Wuji Divine Alliance, which does not have absolute dominance as an alliance, the kings of the other six major races have all gathered together. If they can reach an effective agreement and compromise with each other, we can consider this battlefield as the end of the era of strife and begin a full-scale offensive."

As he spoke, the Great Arhat Vajra paused for a moment, then continued, "Speaking of which, the wizards also bear the name of this alliance, but in reality, the wizards completely dominate everything. This so-called alliance exists in name only, and the wizards hold an unshakeable and absolute dominant position within it. Hopefully, this alliance won't follow the path of endless expansion like the Abyss, otherwise, we might face a new enemy in a few epochs."

"That would be best."

The Saint of Deception also murmured.
