Chapter 2098: Chapter 1659: Did the Monarch Go to the Lava Branch Road?

Furnace Branch? Helios?

Everyone looked at each other, murmuring these keywords, all a bit confused. Who are these guys who popped up out of nowhere? They actually want to assist Kelanis?

"Where is the Furnace Branch?" Anthony asked.

"Listen for yourselves," Ossia didn’t explain, as he didn’t know much either.

In a dark and towering hall, surrounded by tiered seating, sat various creatures, including humans, goblins, and Star Descendants... this was the Nether River Council.

At the bottom center of the steps, a Star Flame Embodiment stood there, speaking eloquently: "The Lord of the Furnace Branch, Helios, finds the gathering of Ghost Hunting Dogs here quite strange. He is willing to send a powerful team to help us, to slaughter these Ghost Hunting Dogs, and disrupt their schemes."

A human voice arose: "What do they require as compensation?"

Kelanis, embodied as the Star Flame Embodiment, said: "They require no compensation. Their only demand is to hand over the captured Ghost Hunting Dogs to them."

"Nothing at all? Is that possible? Will they only send some inconsequential guys over to gather information?" the human voice questioned.

Kelanis answered: "No, they’re willing to let us evaluate the incoming team by any means necessary. If they’re not competent enough, we can dispose of them as we please."

The human said: "It seems Helios has great confidence in his team. All methods are permissible? Including you?"

Dare to let someone like Kelanis, a Giant God Star, test the opposition?

"That’s Helios’s idea, he said if it gets broken, just throw it away, no need to return it," Kelanis explained.

The entire Nether River Council exchanged glances. The other party being a Branch Lord and able to make such a statement clearly demonstrates great confidence in the team they’re sending. But is this reasonable?

"Is the other party trying to send spies to our location to acquire the coordinates here?" someone asked.

Someone said: "They’re separated by several branches. What use is it to obtain our position? Can they teleport here?"

"What if they’re not from the Furnace Branch but impersonating them?"

Faced with this skepticism, Kelanis straightforwardly said: "Their contact method was conveyed to me by the Lord of Lania, it can’t be an impersonation."

Hearing about the Lord of Lania, everyone sighed in relief.

"Information coming from a Branch Lord is impossible to fake, so is the Furnace Branch truly so selfless? Sending a team for us to casually test just to slaughter Ghost Hunting Dogs without seeking any compensation, is that right?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone exchanged glances again.

While they were deliberating, in Ange’s Soul Network, there were whispers as well.

"What is this Furnace Branch’s background? Why would they besiege us so abruptly? We haven’t even ventured to their branch," Negris remarked.

Anthony also found it puzzling, could there really be such altruistic God Stars in the Void?

Helping others and harming oneself without seeking compensation, simply to maintain peace in the Void? Could such God Stars exist?

Sending an elite team across vast distances to fight in another branch consumes an enormous amount of energy and resources.

If it was just sending a team to assess the situation, that would be one thing, but for them to dare say to freely test them, they must have great confidence in the team they’re dispatching.

If the team sent is elite, the resources and energy consumed will be massive, you can’t send a low energy level team to besiege the Ghost Tourers, otherwise, if others just stood there, you couldn’t touch them, the energy level wouldn’t suffice.

But the higher the energy level of the team sent, the more energy they consume.

Previously mentioned, why wouldn’t God Stars leave their own branches at will? Because the energy consumed just by leaving a branch is enough to cause a God Star to perish.

Even if they burn themselves out, a God Star may not be able to leave their branch.

The best way is through the Gate of No Boundary, but the Gate of No Boundary is too small for a whole God Star to pass through.

Aside from the Gate of No Boundary, the only way is to go via the Land of the Infinity, and have Star Movers relocate the God Star into the Land of the Infinity, move a certain distance, and then exit through another end.

But where are there any Star Movers now? The remaining Star Movers are all with Ange.

Expending effort and energy to send a team over and not asking for any compensation, such altruistic God Stars, no one really believes they exist.

Business that costs one’s head has people doing it, but no one does losing business, this is completely losing business to the extreme, why would the other party take the initiative to propose this?

"Is it possible they have a low energy level elite team that can be teleported through the Gate of No Boundary without consuming too much energy?" Ursman speculated.

"Is there such a team? If the energy level is so low, what use would it be to send them?" Negris asked irritably.

Ursman said: "Actually, our own level isn’t that high."

Everyone exchanged a glance, it seemed true. Being around God Stars for so long, they forgot that the energy level of the Ghost Guides wasn’t high either. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Ange used the energy from ten God Stars to charge up this current Stacked Clone, then extracted Stacked Pieces from the clone, giving two to each person.

Specifically, with each piece, each individual’s strength isn’t high, even lower than that of Dark Stars, so dealing with them doesn’t require individuals with very high energy levels, but rather those with swift speed and tracking abilities capable of locating them.

"It seems so, the energy level doesn’t need to be too high, having the level of Dark Stars would suffice and can be teleported through the Gate of No Boundary, but what kind of low energy level creatures could keep pace with the Ghost Guides?"

None of them could think of specific creatures, their understanding of the Furnace Branch was too limited.

Similar suspicions arose at the Nether River Council, a Star Descendant asked: "What kind of team are they preparing to send? Is it Dark Stars?"

Kelanis said: "They claim it’s a team of Incremental Bodies, led by a skeleton called the Undead Ruler."

"Pfft... Incremental Bodies? Undead Ruler? Skeleton?" Negris and Anthony exchanged a glance, simultaneously thinking of one person.

It’s not strange to be called the Undead Ruler, but a skeleton named Undead Ruler, especially an Incremental Body, throughout the All Void, there is only one.

"How did the Old Immortal end up at the Furnace Branch?" Negris was dumbfounded.

Anthony turned to Ange, asking: "My lord, where did Your Majesty go?"

Ange shook his head.

Ange didn’t know where the Monarch went, so this was most likely the Undead King.

If it weren’t for the Undead Ruler and the lack of a skeleton, Anthony might have instructed the silver coin to try its best to sabotage the reinforcements, but now, Anthony quickly said: "Silver coin, do not oppose, support them in requesting reinforcements."

Without Anthony’s orders, the silver coin remained silent, equally curious as to when Your Majesty ran off to the Furnace Branch.
