Mighty Lord

Chapter 2999: Chapter 980

It was just that, although the attack of that group of Divine Kings at that time achieved good battle results, witnessing their attacks unfold personally left a trace of unexpected expressions on their faces.

Although then, the attack of that group of Divine Kings had considerable effect, obviously, compared to the results they had set in their minds, the performance of Abyssal creatures under Zhou Tian exceeded their expectations.

At that time, in the eyes of that group of Divine Kings, the Abyssal creatures dispatched by Zhou Tian were merely a bunch of ants, probably dispatched by the Abyssal Consciousness internally to counteract their threat. They had experienced such situations countless times since their world didn’t possess any peerless power. Though such tactics frequently occurred, they usually didn’t achieve much effect.

That group of Divine Kings did not regard the Abyssal creatures attacking them seriously. In their view, a wave of attacks from them could probably eliminate that group of Abyssal creatures then. But in reality, when they launched their attack, although the effect seemed good, no instance occurred where those Abyssal creatures were annihilated in one wave. Despite significant losses at their hands, the number of Abyssal creatures surviving the wave of attack was still considerable.

Undoubtedly, that group of Divine Kings couldn’t have spared the Abyssal creatures. Hence, after attacking based on their estimated power, they didn’t achieve the results they desired. Without showing mercy, the only explanation was that the Abyssal creatures’ strength exceeded their estimation somewhat. Only in such a situation could some of Zhou Tian’s Abyssal creatures survive the attacks from the Divine Kings.

Given the circumstances then, when some of Zhou Tian’s Abyssal creatures survived, the group of Divine Kings clearly realized what this situation meant. Undoubtedly, when that group of Divine Kings understood the implications of the situation, Zhou Tian’s plan immediately had its effect.

Undoubtedly, the contemporary group of Divine Kings were realistic. Their current invasion of the Abyss World results from their desire to take advantage of Zhou Tian. Due to Zhou Tian’s slightly stronger performance, thoughts of retreat emerged in that group of Divine Kings. With their behavior, upon seeing enormous benefits, the thought of claiming those benefits for themselves spontaneously rose.

However...

If it were normal circumstances, given the strength and status of those Divine Kings, anything they set their sights upon was rarely beyond their reach. Unless other Divine Kings competed, typically any unowned item or treasure whose owner was not strong could be claimed by them.

But clearly, the situation now didn’t allow that group of Divine Kings to act recklessly. Although they developed strong intentions to seize the Abyss World upon recognizing the Abyssal creatures’ strength, they were well aware that numerous Divine Kings shared similar thoughts. Besides Zhou Tian, the original owner, in terms of seizing the Abyss World, those Divine Kings had essentially become competitors against each other.

Thus, when all those Divine Kings arose with the same idea, they couldn’t remain united as before. Even if they knew all this was Zhou Tian’s strategy, it’s doubtful they would alter their decision.

Zhou Tian employed an open scheme. Even if those Divine Kings discerned his intentions, in that situation, they would inevitably fall into the trap obediently.

As long as the nature of those Divine Kings hadn’t changed, undoubtedly they would aim towards the Abyss World. Once fixated on the Abyss World, desiring to claim ownership, they’d surely be cautious of other Divine Kings nearby. Thus, while Zhou Tian understood their character’s weaknesses well, facing such targeting arrangements, other than falling into the trap, those Divine Kings couldn’t react differently then.

Thus, when seeing the situation evolve into that scenario, Zhou Tian’s plan essentially succeeded then.

Following the circumstances, once Zhou Tian’s arrangements started to take effect, even then, that group of Divine Kings understood the risks involved in dispersal, making it impossible for them to reunite.

After all, those Divine Kings knew what kind of goods they and other Divine Kings were. Also, aware of what kind of people they each were made reunion practically impossible at the time.
