Chapter 1163 Talent [1]

The Beast Domain wasn't quite as developed as its peers.

It wasn't a matter of strength or anything of the sort. It was an unequivocal fact that the Beast Domain possessed more than enough strength to be revered, which was why they hadn't been targeted until now.

However, Beasts didn't have a forgiving culture.

The law of the jungle that became a metaphor for the atmosphere of society came directly from their inherent culture, and this law didn't change at a universal scale.

If one lost, one would die. If one spared their enemy, one would be regarded as weak and they'd likely fall to revenge in the future.

When such a law prevailed, it was difficult to keep a large number of powerful people around at the same time.

The difference between the Beast Domain and the other Sectors was this.

Rather than a large quantity, they had limited quantity with extreme quality.

Their experts had strength that couldn't be matched by many, and most of the Beast Domain's conflicts were internal as others refused to get involved with such crazy people.

After all, if one lost the conflict, they wouldn't be safe even if they retreated!

There were more than a few stories of beasts chasing their enemies to the ends of the earth for the sake of redemption.

This environment was nothing more than a concentrated microcosm of the wider universe, so there were never problems.

If the beast experts could hold the lines on their own with power that matched an army, they wouldn't find problems from external influences either.

The Nox didn't begin their attack recently.

This was the start of the current war, but as had been found over time, the Nox's interference in the universe started several hundred million years ago, a time before recorded history.

The races dominant in their currently existing systems were those who survived the age-old storm.

The fact that they remained dominant to this day was a testament to their strength, if nothing else.

Therefore, it became clear that the Beast Race had several ways to repel invaders.

Then, why?

Why did they end up in their current situation?

It started 3 months ago in the universal timeline, not long after the Hound Lord was purged.

Unknown to the Judgement Order, news of his death spread starting that same day.

Nox forces arrived on the second day to confirm it, but his death was felt by the many Lords under the Inhuman Emperor's regime at the moment it happened, and realizing that a Demigod had died so quietly, they changed their plans.

Originally, the Soul World was their next target.

As those strategizing for Heaven's Army predicted, the Nox did indeed find a way to circumvent the natural disadvantages they had in the domain of Spirits.

If everything went according to plan, they would've used the full force of their strength and numbers to charge the frontlines guarding the Sector and make their way in somehow.

Even if only a few of them made it, they'd shown clearly they had ways to destroy a Sector with just a small group of invisible soldiers.

Yet, the Hound Lord's death was significant.

It had to be known that the number of Demigod casualties until this point of the current war was 0. None of the currently existing experts had died to this conflict.

The Hound Lord was the first blood, and the universe was the one that took it.

The Beast Domain was the next logical step.

No, the Human Domain was, at least in the Nox's eyes.

They, by no fault to them, believed that the natural barrier around the domain had weakened with them.

However, the Human Domain was special.

First of all, Damien's actions in No Return Pass had spread through the Nox armies over the past year and a frontal assault through Eien was taken off the table.

Even if they were able to kill him, by the time they did so, the universe would've been long aware of their movements and formed countermeasures to stop them.

Secondly, the barrier that was supposed to be weak was nothing of the sort.

It was almost as strong as it was when it was first created, a phenomenon with no explanation.

Regardless of the reason behind it, the fact remained that the Human Domain was far too difficult to conquer. At a time like this, when momentum was the most important factor, they couldn't allow the universe a chance to retaliate.

The beasts had many great clans led by the Golden Dragon Clan. The recently added Black Dragon Clan was also a powerhouse force that couldn't be underestimated.

However, in terms of actual experts, they were currently lacking.

The Golden and Black Dragon Clans lost a large number of their more powerful experts in their personal war, which dropped their usable combat power. On top of that, the forces under them were in similar circumstances due to similar circumstances.

As mentioned earlier, the Beast Domain's culture was ruthless, and this ruthlessness had now come to stab them in the back.

The Nox attacked with their everything.

The armies of the Inhuman Emperor, complete with several hundred million lesser Nox and several tens of millions of their Higher counterparts, charged as if their lives depended on it, with no particular strategies in mind.

Several worlds fell to their sudden actions before anyone realized it, and worst of all, they were extremely prepared.

Every Supreme was blocked by an equal, and the Demigods who had to find a way to help without directly interfering were stumped without a way to fix the situation.

Universal forces flooded into the domain to counter them, and the entire Sector became a war zone, similar to Calypto.

And…

They came back.

The terrifying starships that could destroy planets with a single strike of their cannons came back in full force.

In 3 months, the conflict couldn't progress much, but the Nox were definitely winning.

And as the months passed, this situation didn't improve, mainly because of a single factor.

Another strange situation that couldn't be explained.

Universal denizens began converting into Nox.

Not willingly, but spontaneously as if they were combusting.

When trust became a privilege, an army's morale was hard to determine.

With the passing of time, a small crack in the glass ballooned into something irreparable.

By the time a year went by, only Beast Emperor Star remained untouched.

But, that was a story for another time.

Whether it was now or then, it was hard to determine whether the downfall the universe was experiencing was a product of their enemies, themselves, or something greater.

However, it was certain that the Nox didn't gain such a pronounced advantage on their own.

The universe always had a problem with infighting. It was inevitable when its inhabitants had the privilege of free thought.

For benefits, for survival, or for some other inexplicable reason, there wasn't a small number of people who acted against the universe's best interest.

Unfortunately, this wasn't a problem that could be solved unless martial law was imposed.

And if martial law was imposed, those rebellious individuals could exploit the situation to attain a moral high ground and gather others to their cause!

It was difficult.

How could this problem be solved?

How could the universe's people be brought together so they could achieve survival for their homeland, even if it meant they themselves had to die?

This impossible problem was imperative to solve.

Otherwise, there really was no hope at all.
