THE GOD EATER - Chapter 583: Dragons Vs Humans.

Nether Flame nodded in reply and said, “Exactly. So we are in for a lot of trouble from the world kings of this world.”
At this point, Money Body added, saying, “Dragons are powerful, but we already have tried and tested methods to eliminate them. Besides, this won’t be my first time encountering and fighting them.”
“All we have to do is kill the normal dragons one by one. This will slowly weaken the dragon king.”
“By the time we are done killing the other dragons, the dragon king will be no different from an ordinary world king whose power has been split.”
Nether Flame flattered Money Body, saying, “I’m sure that with you on our side, this outpost mission is all but done.”
Ant Hill immediately took the opportunity to say, “Victory is all but certain for us thanks to your esteemed presence.”
Money Body smiled and said, “We shall see.”
Nether Flame didn’t say anything anymore, but Ant Hill didn’t let up. She continued to flatter as she said, “If not for you, I don’t know how we would have gained entry into the world after everything that happened with the world becoming aware of us.”
She continued to say more things to flatter Money Body, and Money Body was nodding in satisfaction. But Loki didn’t join in the flattery. This was because he was still thinking about dragons.
While he was thinking, he remembered what Hammock had said about how dragons were hunted to extinction. What he remembered made him shake his head and say, “I still find it unbelievable that humans could defeat dragons. After all, they seem to have all of the advantages on their side.”
“Dragons are literally children of the world. They are usually created to be world kings, so in a fight with them, they will have the advantage of superior power, and the world will support them.”
In response to what he said, Money Body shrugged and said, “Who knows exactly what happened? I don’t think there is anyone alive who witnessed the downfall of the dragons. Everything we know about that period of time was through unverified records left here and there.”
“I am very old. But by the time I became a divine being, dragons were already on the downward trend, and it had become easy to kill them.”
“However, I did hear about a pathway called the Human Pathway. I heard that this pathway mimicked the power of dragon kings to help a single human become powerful by combining the power of many other weaker humans.”
“There were talks that the Human Pathway made it possible for humans to match dragons simply because there were far more humans than dragons. So the power gained by humans by combining their power was enough to counter dragons, even though dragons were world kings.”
Then he shook his head and said, “But that is all hearsay. Even at that time, ten thousand years ago, the Human Pathway was only a rumor. Now I’m not sure that the Human Pathway ever existed.”
“The only thing I can be certain of is that dragons could pass through the world barriers of our world without being drained of their lifespan. I’ve also seen other things that confirm that dragons are the blessed children of the world.”
“In fact, the pathways that we call beast pathways were created for dragons in particular. So the fact that we were able to defeat and replace them in the Blessed Heaven World is truly unbelievable. Not only did we kill them to extinction, but even the beast pathways have also disappeared.”
The discussion continued among them beyond this point, but Loki wasn’t paying much attention anymore. He was only half heartedly involved because he was now thinking about how the world barrier hadn’t siphoned his lifespan when he passed through it.
As they spoke, the four of them successfully retrieved the shield breaker. Then they left the ocean.
The agitated creatures couldn’t keep up with them after they left the water. After all, they were aquatic creatures, not birds that could fly in the air. So no matter how much they wanted to eat the intruders, they couldn’t reach their enemy.
The four of them found an island to use as their base of operations. They could also use somewhere on the ocean floor, but Money Body thought that it was a bad idea to set up in a place where it would be easy for the enemy to surround them.
Money Body had said, “The ocean is essentially the home ground of the creatures in this world. By setting up our base on the surface, we will be able to cut off the bulk of the enemies that we will face.”
Loki thought that this was a good idea simply because the agitated creatures stopped bothering them after they left the ocean. He was in favor of setting up their base on an island. Unfortunately, things were not so easy.
The first problem they faced was finding an island in Oceania. Since most of Oceania was covered with water, the act of looking for an island is very similar to the act of looking for a needle in a haystack.
They were still able to find this island thanks to Money Body. As a rank 8 cultivator, his insight was very high. And as the leader of an alliance, he had a large Cave Heaven to help spread his powerful perception over a large area.
After they found the island, they buried one shield breaker on it. This was what the crystal ant and the homunculi that had been sent earlier should have done.
Unfortunately for the crystal ants and 160 homunculi, they couldn’t find a land surface to plant the shield breaker. So they had to enter the ocean, where they were eaten or met their demise in various ways.
Now that the shield breaker had been planted, the next step was to link it up with another shield breaker.
