“So that’s how the power of desire is used?

I thought it was a mere tool to gauge the voices of others’ hearts, but after witnessing your method of eliciting strong emotions, I realized that it has far more aggressive applications.

I’m beginning to understand why I was so passionate about wanting to see the Seed of Life take root and sprout, even at the expense of my strength and future.

I too have been a victim of the power of desire.”

“I’m still figuring it out myself.”

Murphy waved his hand and said:

“Your praise will make me conceited.

Let’s talk about the matter at hand.

Hogur has brought us definite information about the wolfman warlord Kenbort in the Andma Hills.

That guy has assembled an army of seventeen thousand wolfmen, and he is still relentlessly recruiting more.

It is clear that this is beyond the limits of conventional tactics.

Even if I do my utmost to summon spirits from another world, I won’t be able to eliminate him in a short period of time.

But the good news is that we know the specific location of this bandit gang.

This means we might be able to employ some ‘unconventional’ tactics, ones that could turn the tide of battle in an instant.”

“Hmm?”

Cui Si blinked, hearing a hint of foreboding in Murphy’s tone.

She asked:

“What are you planning?”

Murphy didn’t answer immediately.

He looked up at the vaulted ceiling of the Blood Eagle Corridor, but his gaze seemed to penetrate the stone above and see the stars in the sky.

After a few seconds, he lowered his head, leaned toward Cui Si, and quietly asked:

“Do you know how to use the Star Realm Rend Spell?

Like when Circle Tower used it to destroy Cardman City, we could replicate this tactic.

I’ve even found someone to precisely pinpoint our target.

With good timing, not to mention an army of seventeen thousand, we could annihilate an army of a hundred thousand wolfmen.

The best part is, we don’t need to trigger a spell of the same scale as the Circle Tower.

One third or even a quarter of the scale would be sufficient.”

Cui Si held her breath.

Her enchanting eyes flickered with the light of contemplation and the calculations involved with this matter of expertise as a spiritual overlord.

After reflecting for fifteen seconds, she said:

“The principle of Star-world Tear is not difficult, and Transylvania already has a star realm rift.

This makes the separation between the material world and the star realm unstable around this land.

Under these circumstances, initiating such a spell would indeed be easier.

But this is risky, little Murphy.

We still can’t comprehend the changes that the massive influx of the wild and polluted star energy into the material world may cause.

Also, due to the instability between the two dimensions, I can’t assure you that we won’t make things worse once the spell is successful.

For instance…”

“A second star realm rift?”

Murphy rubbed his chin, and said:

“Indeed, that risk is a bit massive.

So what if we reduce the scale of the spell to a safe threshold?”

“Then the destructive power won’t be sufficient.”

Cui Si shook her head and said:

“Under the premise of ensuring absolute safety, the Star Realm Rend I can trigger would not even reach one-tenth of the scale of the destruction of Cardman City.

If they crowd together, I reckon I could take out a few hundred at a time.

But that’s the limit.”

“No problem, that’s enough!”

Murphy waved his hand and said:

“The real power of this technique lies not in its lethal force, but the disruption it causes to ordinary living beings’ thoughts and the fear it instills in their hearts and minds once the star realm rift is opened.

Given the unguarded minds of the wolf people, they’ll probably go insane the moment they’re hit by the star energy.

Cleaning up a group of terrified barbarians is much easier than dealing with tens of thousands of rampaging pigs.

Let’s stick to this plan.

Phemys can be your assistant, and the black-iron-rank psychics among my warriors can also help.

They’ve been here for quite a while; it’s time to give them access to something truly powerful, to let them truly experience the dignity of being a psychic.

They can’t just be satisfied with being mere footmen.

Strength brings dignity and satisfaction, which is exactly what they need in this different world.

Wouldn’t you agree?”
