Divine Beast Creator

Sighing, Feng Yuan realized that even without the unexpected events around him, he seemed unable to sit still. However, this matter was quite urgent, and the timing was somewhat delicate.

Right now is the period for resource warfare in various regions, and at this moment, the situation of potions changing properties is very unfavorable for logistics.

Because during this time, a large number of injured in the resource warfare would use various healing potions. If the effects of these potions change, it would cause considerable trouble. Also, using potions in battles is not entirely prohibited, and no one knows what impact a potion transformation might have on the battlefield.

However, Feng Yuan soon thought of one thing: it seemed that on the battlefields in Xu Family Town today, there was no occurrence of potion effect changes. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

In other words, it is possible that the change in potion effects started spreading from Maomu City to the surrounding areas?

Thinking of this possibility, Feng Yuan frowned. If that’s the case, this matter might be related to those people.

He tapped his head lightly and realized that if he thought about it further, he would be overwhelmed.

With a helpless smile, Feng Yuan said,

"This troublesome affair is full of suspicious points. I don’t even know what exactly caused all these changes."

"Who knows? Perhaps it’s a natural phenomenon, or maybe those people did it unintentionally. As for saying it’s intentional... actually, it’s not impossible either."

Veronia said suddenly, looking at Feng Yuan with a meaningful gaze,

"I believe you also realized it in that false battlefield."

Feng Yuan was taken aback, and with a wry smile, he shook his head and said,

"I didn’t expect you to notice as well."

"Rather than discovering it, it’s more about understanding human nature... It’s always like this."

Gazing up at the sky with a low sigh, Veronia smiled and Feng Yuan said,

"The Apostles of Yellow Springs didn’t say, maybe it’s something that happens afterward. At the very least, not everyone is like that, right?"

"Is it just an abandoned possibility in a parallel space? Or, to phrase it differently, is it just a possibility that hasn’t had the chance to occur?"

Staring at Feng Yuan, Veronia said blandly. With a helpless smile, Feng Yuan said,

"What’s the difference? A bad person might perform an incredible good deed under certain conditions, while a good person might commit heinous crimes under certain conditions. If you use a never-happened possibility to infer guilt, do you think anyone would be innocent?"

"So, among those people, it’s inevitable that there are ambitious ones, huh."

"I said, it’s rare enough to have even a single Saint, but in such a large group, they all claim to be Saints, which is too fairy-tale-like."

"Perhaps, this change has something to do with those ambitious individuals?"

Veronia glanced at Agunas, whose attention was on investigating the Time River, not noticing the conversation between Feng Yuan and Veronia.

However, even Veronia was uncertain if Agunas realized the implied meanings shown by those people in the parallel space.

Originally just an organization to help ordinary people, it suddenly got involved in warfare between nations. Perhaps Qi Chen and the others didn’t realize this, but Veronia had already figured it out.

In that parallel space, those people initially utilized different nations. As someone familiar with various chaos battles, Veronia estimated that in that possibility, those people used Kastantos, pretending to ally with it to target Starlotte and Mitradite.

And under this plan, they once again pretended to ally with Starlotte, aiming to deplete the forces of Starlotte and Mitradite.

That is also why, in that parallel space, those people remained constantly adversarial because, from the start, they were plotting that region, never truly intending to ally with outsiders.

Their purpose in seeking that area was suspicious in Veronia’s eyes. Although their weapons were decent, it was difficult for them to hold a place for long.

After all, Feng Yuan only provided them with means and ways to protect themselves but didn’t equip them with the ability to dominate the world, so wandering around without directly meddling in the battles of major nations was still fine.

To the Divine Beings, ordinary people are just numbers. As long as they don’t affect their quality of life and rule, they wouldn’t provoke those people for the sake of ordinary people.

But, this absolutely doesn’t include tolerating them seizing a territory, especially in a way that schemes against them.

Although this is just a never-occurring possibility, Veronia knows that the existence of this possibility indeed indicates that it’s not like there are no ambitious people among those people. The only reason they haven’t acted might be because there hasn’t been an opportunity.

After all, they’re ambitious but not stupid. Naturally, they wouldn’t recklessly act without any opportunity.

Feng Yuan also realized this situation, but in his view, it wasn’t a big problem because, in occurred history, this situation hasn’t happened, so he should just assume everything is fine.

However, now with this change occurring, Feng Yuan has to reassess that group of people.

For a moment, Feng Yuan was conflicted. He didn’t know whether to find those people now, and although he didn’t know where they were hiding, he understood that if he wanted to find them, he surely could.

But...

Placing his right hand over his chest, Feng Yuan thought somewhat confusedly, am I truly ready to face them?

If he hadn’t intervened to change their future, perhaps none of this would have happened. Do they resent or thank him?

Shaking his head, Feng Yuan chose not to think about it anymore. The situation was unclear, and at least he had to wait until Agunas and the others completed their investigation before drawing conclusions.

Subconsciously, Feng Yuan once again chose to avoid.

Veronia and Tamur both clearly understood Feng Yuan’s avoidance but said nothing. Veronia felt empathetic; if things got tied to that person, it might be even worse for her than for Feng Yuan. As for Tamur,

It was a habit of his. Rather than saying comforting words, it was simpler for him to extend a helping hand.

The next day, everyone followed the group to Xu Family Town.

"Speaking of which, why is the celebration location chosen to be in Xu Family Town? Although that place is important, it’s not directly under the jurisdiction of Cha Mu Town, is it?"

On the way, Feng Yuan asked Wu Xiaoya curiously. Despite its considerable size, Xu Family Town mainly serves as a resource site, and in Feng Yuan’s view, it couldn’t possibly have a dedicated banquet space, could it?

It’s important to know that this place does not truly belong to the Tea Wood Town Area. If the resource war fails, Xu Family Town would be used by others.

Due to the special nature of Xu Family Town, its internal facilities are not allowed for leasing or purchasing, meaning no matter who controls it or what is built, once there’s a victor, everything would unconditionally belong to the victor.

Wu Xiaoya gave Feng Yuan a weird look and said,

"That’s because the place is quite convenient. There are many battlefields around, and Xu Family Town has the best conditions; it’s just right for holding a banquet."

"As for returning to Tea Wood Town Area for a unified celebration, that’s something that will happen later. After all, the resource war doesn’t start at a completely unified time; battles occur throughout the month. Xu Family Town just started earlier."

"I see. But setting it in Xu Family Town, what if we don’t win, wouldn’t that be troublesome?"

Feng Yuan nodded, curious about what would happen if Xu Family Town lost but other places won? How would they arrange it?

Wu Xiaoya didn’t expect Feng Yuan to ask such a question. She thought seriously for a moment and said,

"They would probably change the venue. Other battlefields don’t have facilities as good as Xu Family Town, but there is enough open space to hold a banquet in any victorious area."

She didn’t find anything wrong with Feng Yuan’s question. Even Tea Wood Town couldn’t guarantee victory every time in a resource war.

After all, accidents are everywhere; they don’t have overwhelming strength. Being defeated by opponents isn’t something unacceptable; they can win back next year.

It must be said that with the ongoing resource warfare, the initially huge contradictions among the regions have gradually calmed down. At least, it won’t evolve into hatred or worsen continuously like before.
