Surviving The Fourth Calamity

Capítulo 1719: Chapter 296: Gaia’s Disappointing Performance

No, his judgment of Hill’s ability seems a bit off!

That guy is definitely not just a level 30 Mage.

Even if suppressed to level 16, a stronger being must be able to handle those weaker than themselves… the purity of energy can’t possibly be the same!

It was only after realizing this point that Ivan decided to stand on Gaia’s side.

Hill, who is not even 100 years old, how could he compare to Gaia, who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years?

Damn, how could he have thought that Gaia’s hundreds of thousands of years were lived worse than a dog’s!

Ivan turned his head anxiously and looked around, but the Paintbrush he was looking for obviously didn’t enter his tunnel… probably not wanting to continue dealing with the Princess of Danboro, so it left with that group of annoying guys.

Although those people are willing to cooperate with the Eden side, their attitude is really uncomfortable.

The look in their eyes, saying ‘if the Paintbrush didn’t fancy you, who would want to stay with such trash as you’, really made Ivan very disgusted.

His Paintbrush lady probably also noticed the discord between the two parties, so she generally wouldn’t let them stay in the same place.

If it weren’t for the fact that he really needed their ability to charge at the forefront, Ivan feels he wouldn’t have tolerated them so much!

However, in the end, the ones who could open the mine entrance and shatter the mine’s mountain wall were still… sigh~ had to rely on them.

If only too many hadn’t died in the battle when entering the mine earlier, and if their combat strength were still intact, Ivan wouldn’t confront Ji Lanyuan directly, even if he was displeased with her rude words.

That Paintbrush probably wouldn’t have taken the remaining dozens of people and left first either.

He really regrets it a bit now.

In the future, he will have to be a bit more polite to those people.

Even though their personalities are displeasing, when they don’t have equal combat power on their side, they still need to endure some humiliation.

Ivan resolved that when he returns, he will agree a bit with that freedom-loving female fighter.

It’s easy, isn’t it?

Her ideas are things they’ve already played with… the more radical public wisdom is, the easier it is for them to oppose each other, allowing them to always stand at the top.

After all, the more conflicts there are among the lower classes, the more they need the help and adjudication of the upper classes.

That is why there is such a concept of absolute fairness: making the lower classes only look at each other, completely ignoring the heavens above, is the best solution.

The wealth created by the wisdom of the upper classes should naturally be enjoyed by the upper classes themselves, like those across…

Heh~

Ivan believes that just as the ancestors were able to almost put those across on the right path, they too have the capability in this generation!

As long as!

As long as their country’s military capability catches up, particularly in the utilization of energy and the study of smart brains! That’s when it’s time for them to strike again.

Just like now, although he has to bow to a fool like Ji Lanyuan, sooner or later, victory will still belong to him.

Of course, beautiful and lovely ladies are the same.

Only those as naturally romantic as Paintbrush are ones he can’t bear to give up.

Although the future he envisions is beautiful, the rumbling vibration remains unchanged, still a long, endless road drawing Ivan back to reality.

He sighed silently.

Damn Space-Time Company!

Just knew it! The games researched by those across the way, how could they not suppress the deities belonging to their Eden!

Damn it, not daring to mess with the omniscient and omnipotent God, they targeted their Mother Earth!

However, the harsh reality reminds Ivan… no matter how much anger and grievance he has, his hoped-for Gaia can’t even open Hill’s Maze Formation.

Of course, he had long discovered that the Princess of Danboro had become Gaia.

Although still calling her “Princess”, both Ivan and Gaia know well who he’s referring to.

How could he possibly cooperate with such a dumb woman who seems to have fed her brain to the dogs—the one who appeared before Ivan as a princess was naturally Gaia herself.

Ivan can understand why Gaia would choose such a foolish woman as well.

Only such a person would attribute her inexplicable fame to her own cleverness.

But now, what should be done?

Without even seeing Hill… Ivan has to start considering, if Gaia loses too miserably, will he, standing by her side, also be marked with some undeserved mark?

Even if Hill chooses to take it out on them and makes the Eden Alliance unwelcome, Ivan wouldn’t be afraid, because Paintbrush’s subordinates still have thousands.

Hill couldn’t possibly declare them an unwelcome race, just like Space-Time Company couldn’t ban all their IPs over such a trivial matter.

But, even if Eden didn’t have many qualified to buy Hill’s good things and cheap goods, those potential lower classes who lost all opportunities due to his and his family’s wrong decisions will start causing trouble.

They have long been accustomed to causing a fuss whenever something happens, at least to get some immediate benefits.

If he were still in this game… Ivan estimates he’d have to bleed a little.

This decision he made, and the other families will surely put him forth to take the blame.

Damned!

Finally managed to earn some commission, am I going to lose it all this time?

Despicable!

Gaia didn’t know that standing respectfully behind her, the Eden Undead Tribe had already begun considering how to salvage the impending failure. Although she hadn’t suppressed Hill yet, she was still very confident.

After all, this array originally belonged to the opposing side, and it would take some time to resolve under equal levels, which is quite normal.

A smile curved at the corners of her mouth as she arrogantly spoke: “Ah~ little fellow from the World Tree Family, come out!

Stop struggling! It’s useless!

Tsk tsk~ the Life Force of the Earth, it’s been so long since I felt it!

It’s wonderful.

Didn’t expect to smell such a delicious taste here~

Haha~

Once I swallow you, I can restore most of my power!”

“So, your Chaotic Power was indeed devoured by the respected Lord of Hell?” Hill’s slow voice echoed from all sides of the mountain wall into the cave, “Asmodeus’s Majesty is indeed the strongest Dark Angel!

Indeed a fearsome power.”

Gaia quickly turned and unleashed a black vortex with a wave of her hand.

However, even though the vortex swallowed that part of the wall, Hill’s voice continued to resonate throughout the cave.

“Heh~ don’t let me catch you!” Gaia snarled viciously, “Don’t think that by flattering Asmodeus, he’ll step in to save you!

Even if he’s standing right beside you, he’ll wait until you die and then laugh while devouring your Soul filled with the Force of Nature!

Heh~ you might as well offer your flesh to me, as Aesces will accept your Soul anyway!”

Even Ivan standing behind her thought Gaia might be a bit insane.

She seemed quite decent earlier when discussing cooperation!

Even if she wanted to provoke Hill’s emotions to make him reveal himself, there was no need to offend the Lord of Hell!

Even if Asmodeus had a ten percent chance of looking their way, they shouldn’t have been so… unrestrained.

If these words were spoken of deities, even AO wouldn’t argue with Gaia, but that’s someone who suppresses the nine layers of hell!

And someone who has long tidied up your Lord of Hell.

Ivan couldn’t help but take a slight step back, regret surfacing layer after layer in his heart.

He hadn’t ruled out the possibility of failure.

But he always felt that even if Gaia lost in Aesces, she would certainly emerge afterwards to deal with Hill… Compared to saving her son, Gaia certainly desires more to restore her power.

Just like when Zeus dispatched Kloster, her furious self initially chose herself, didn’t she?

Although Ivan didn’t want to admit it, he understood that the Space-Time Company depicted this Gaia vividly, not much different from the one in their Greek Mythology.

So he only mentioned that Space-Time Company suppressed Gaia’s true strength and intelligence, never mentioning her personality.

Ivan felt the antagonists in Space-Time Company always had a strong presence, such as Rose, who appeared in every world, didn’t she?

Even if he played a wrong move in Aesces, maybe one world could turn the tide. Clearly, this game would continuously start new expansions to give new players a fresh start.

After all, it’s realistic, not having repetitive large-scale world quests.

But if Asmodeus followed Gaia, then in this round, he would be utterly defeated!

Hill did notice the expression of the not-so-stable Undead Tribe member standing behind Gaia and quickly deduced what this guy was pondering.

Heh~

If this guy knew Gaia previously offended Rose, would he directly go offline?

Ah, wait, the Princess of Danboro, who served as the spell’s supporting point, is already asleep, can she go online and offline now?

Then, Hill glanced at other areas of the Maze Formation… Sure enough, the Black Rose’s large troupe was already up.

There’s no need for Hill to notify them; they have been probing continuously.

In just a moment, the number of Eden people had halved, while the Paintbrush team, although unable to find a way out, kept moving without rest, avoiding capture by the surrounding Black Rose members.

‘Old Age Striking King’ was already jumping up and down.

Hill tilted his head slightly and moved a bit.

Suddenly, a door quietly opened on the left wall of the ‘Old Age Striking King’ who was loudly cursing.

The Female Priest’s eyes lit up, she blew a kiss to the top of the cave, then rushed in with dozens of people.

Hill was rather leisurely because he truly didn’t expect Gaia, after losing most of her power, to be so weak.

Therefore, he just needed to stand on the earth and continuously supply the Maze Formation with energy… He still wanted to determine Gaia’s current capability limits, not intending to crush her right away.
