Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire-Chapter 839 - 467: Divine King Overthrown, Drastic Changes in the Space-Time Realm

"I can control my followers and servants, but I cannot completely influence the Sitra Empire. It does not belong solely to me; many old friends are involved, and their feelings towards you are not clear."

Hearing Noah's request, the Sacrificial Snake readily agreed, but also gave Noah a veiled reminder.

The Sitra Snake-man Empire will not cease its interference with the Expeditionary Army, and as an empire influenced and established by many Great Snakes, such actions can completely be seen as other Great Snakes probing and displaying hostility towards Noah.

"Could you tell me which friends of yours helped build the Sitra Empire?"

Noah's expression changed as he probed for enemy information. He knew that many beings were interested in him now, but he at least needed to know which ones.

Unlike the Divines who spread beliefs in the secular world, Divines leave behind their name and doctrine with their faith, so no belief can remain hidden under such conditions.

But the great beings who do not need faith are different; some of these figures can sleep for thousands or tens of thousands of years. When they awaken, all traces left in the secular world have vanished without a trace, which does not affect them at all. Whenever they wish, they can rebuild everything.

"The Mother of Ten Thousand Snakes you just mentioned is one of them, then there's the Cycle Snake, Infinite Snake, World Snake..."

Under Noah's slightly solemn gaze, the Sacrificial Snake listed seven Great Snakes, and then added another sentence,

"These were just the friends initially involved in establishing the Sitra Empire. When the empire was built and entered a period of expansion, many Big Snakes and Snake Gods joined, some of whom I don't even like, but I have no reason or stance to expel them."

"Even you don't like them; what kind of beings are they?"

This interaction dramatically changed Noah's previous rigid impression of the Sacrificial Snake.

Based on the current interaction, this great Divine was quite a laid-back and gentle being. From how he came forward to interact and provided much information, agreeing to Noah's request without hesitation, it seems this guy was not only approachable but also quite good-natured, a being worth befriending.

From his tone, it was clear that he had many friends. The Mother of Ten Thousand Snakes, who deeply disgusted Noah, was among them.

Yet even such an existence had some of the Great Snakes and Snake Gods worshipped in the Sitra Snake-man Empire that made him feel repelled.

One must know, the Mother of Ten Thousand Snakes, whom Noah found revolting, was highly regarded by the Sacrificial Snake. In other words, those who made the Sacrificial Snake feel repulsed were even more dreadful than the Mother of Ten Thousand Snakes.

"They feed on fear, enjoy death, indulge in destruction..."

"Destructive Snake!"

Noah immediately understood the kind of beings that repulsed the Sacrificial Snake. Without a doubt, they were Demon Snakes, like the Black King, who had embarked on the path of world destruction.

Even having embarked on the path of world destruction, trying to gain Source Power by destroying the Material Realm is no easy feat, especially in a well-regulated Material World with a thriving World Will.

Therefore, the existence of Favored is extremely crucial. The Material World without self-awareness lacks strong discernment. Weak Evil God's favored can easily cross world barriers, enter the Material World, develop the Evil God's favored forces within, and dismantle and destroy from within, ultimately summoning the World Destroyer, causing a world destruction disaster.

"Why have these Destructive Demon Snakes noticed me?"

Noah did not understand.

His native world could never be chosen by these World Destroyers as their target, because capturing a well-regulated medium-sized Material World is almost impossible for a World Destroyer.

They mostly select those small worlds with limited scale and insufficient foundation, preferably those that have suffered Abyss and Hell invasions and are in a difficult recovery period.

"Because you are waging war, and war is the best way to weaken the World Will."

"I see!"

Noah suddenly realized, having awakened with a start; he was not the only one hoping to conquer the Material World for his benefits. A group of others was quietly lurking, searching for opportunities to bring about world destruction disasters.

"Fortunately."

Although awakened, Noah breathed a sigh of relief.

Having fully understood the birth and operation mode of the World Will, Noah had set strict codes of conduct for the Expeditionary Army, and would avoid initiating large-scale massacres unless absolutely necessary.

Large-scale massacres not only greatly damage and weaken the World Will, but also cause the World Will to revive and become active, developing self-awareness. At that point, one would face resistance from the entire world.

"You've done exceptionally well in this regard; I've observed your army more than once. During their conquests, they control casualties to a very low range, which is very commendable."

The Sacrificial Snake praised Noah's army, noting not only did they avoid initiating large-scale massacres, but more importantly, the Dragon-man Battle Group had a high standard of moral conduct.
