Chapter 1427: It Is Afraid

"You dead god-stick, the God Star hasn't exploded yet and you're already thinking about picking up the corpse? Don't you want to save it?" Negris scolded irritably.

Anthony spread his hands helplessly: "How to save it? Even the lord doesn't dare to touch it head-on, and the Abyss Big Mouth can't even run away. How can I save it?"

Negris stared at him for a long time and found he wasn't joking, so it said somewhat gloomily: "Then a lot of people will die."

Large-scale population transfer was never an easy thing, even with the World Tree's space channel.

Some people were old and sick, some were young and weak, and some were plagued by illness. Leaving the environment they were familiar with, they might all be unaccustomed to the water and soil, and the fatigue of the journey could easily take a person's life.

As for infectious diseases, colds, trampling, and even disputes and fights, all could cause death. In an era where transportation wasn't developed, long-distance migration was a serious crime, and the technical term was exile. It would definitely result in countless deaths and injuries. Migrating hundreds of billions of people, who knew how many people would have to die.

Moreover, not everyone was willing to leave their hometown. Ang's degree of control over the God Light Alliance and the Empress Feilie Empire was very low. Although relying on the World Tree, he could control the situation of all planes, it was still very difficult to make people leave their hometown and go to an unknown place.

If among hundreds of billions of people, one in ten thousand would rather die than leave, that was still a number of several million. When the God Star detonated, they certainly wouldn't survive.

Anthony and Negris didn't want to see anyone die, but their starting points were completely different. Anthony was unwilling to accept unnatural deaths under his governance, but if it was necessary to sacrifice a portion of people, he would send them to die without hesitation.

Compared to Anthony, Negris was truly kind-hearted and didn't like to see too many people die. If it were thirty or fifty, dying was dying, but starting with several million casualties, it was unwilling to accept it and still hoped to save as many as possible.

But now that Anthony had set the plan to picking up the God Star corpse, everyone started preparing to pick up the corpse. Who would still try to save the God Star?

"Yes, a lot of people will die. But natural disasters are things you can't hide from. Do your best. Let's go, let's do our best," Anthony said.

"Ah? Do our best? Us? Don't call Ang?" Negris asked in astonishment.

What could they do? They were two Star God bodies. Even if they squeezed out all the white crystals, they couldn't stop Gomezburg.

"No, the lord is busy. We'll go ourselves. If we encounter a situation where the lord needs to make a move, then we'll shout for help," Anthony said.

Negris rolled its eyes and followed reluctantly.

Not long after, the two arrived at the trunk of the Myriad World God Tree and found the Strange Tree that was growing hard.

"Strange Tree, send us over," Anthony said to the Strange Tree.

A tree hole split open on the trunk of the Strange Tree. Inside the hole was a bottomless space channel.

It had to be said that parasitizing the Myriad World God Tree and absorbing the main body had caused the Strange Tree to change greatly. It could open a space channel from such a distance.

If it were allowed to grow for another tens of thousands of years, it could completely surpass the Guman Snake and become the second strongest plant in the Void, after all, it had too many abilities.

Arriving in front of the tree hole, Anthony suddenly stopped, turned his head and asked: "After knowing Gomezburg's purpose, what are your thoughts?"

The Strange Tree was stunned: "Thoughts? Hmm... Regret for killing the other me."

"Uh, I'm asking what your thoughts are on Gomezburg wanting to detonate the God Star," Anthony said awkwardly.

"Oh, you want to ask this? My thoughts... Gomezburg is afraid," the Strange Tree said.

"Afraid?" Anthony was stunned. He had just asked casually and didn't think he could get any valuable answer. Unexpectedly, the Strange Tree's answer was so unexpected.

"Hmm, it is afraid. Although I don't know what it is afraid of, it is very afraid, willing to destroy everything just to eliminate the thing that makes it afraid," the Strange Tree said.

Anthony nodded thoughtfully, not knowing what he was thinking, and only after a good while did he drill into the tree hole.

When they came out again, they were already behind the Silent Dead Sea.

The originally calm and dead Silent Dead Sea was now like a whirlpool that had fallen into the ocean, and everything was falling toward the Abyss Core in the center.

Clearly, the Silent Dead Sea couldn't be approached, and the thing Anthony was looking for wasn't in the Silent Dead Sea. Coming out of the tree hole, the Strange Tree pointed in a certain direction, and Anthony and Negris Star-shifted in that direction.

Star-shifting could only walk in a straight line and wasn't as fast as Soul-shifting, but it was already a very efficient way of moving in the Void. Soon, they arrived in a pitch-black Void.

Everything around was empty, but Anthony and Negris both felt that there were some things in the Void. Anthony shouted: "Mist Whale, come out, I have some things I want to ask you."

There was no change around.

Anthony continued: "You are not in the same group as Gomezburg, right? What is your opinion on it detonating the God Star? Do you hope it detonates the God Star?"

There was still no change around.

"What exactly is that four-ring disc you manifested for Gomezburg? Manifest another one for me, and I will return it to you after I use the Boundless Gate," Anthony said loudly.

Seeing that there was still no reaction around, Negris couldn't help but ask: "Could it be that it's not here? Don't shout at a piece of air for half a day."

Anthony didn't say anything, just waited silently. After a long while, a four-ring disc slowly floated over from the distant Void, and at the same time, a voice sounded: "The Boundless Gate doesn't need to be returned to me. If it asks where I am, just say you killed me."

"Pfft, faking death? What is your relationship with the Boundless Gate? You'd rather fake death than want it?" Negris asked in shock.

"I have no relationship with it. I am just its guardian beast," the Mist Whale said.

"A guardian beast and you say there's no relationship? Do you know what function it has?" Negris asked.

The Mist Whale said: "It is the only key for you to leave the Boundless Cage."

"Leave the Boundless Cage? Go where?" Anthony asked tentatively.

"Go anywhere. Boundless Gate, no boundaries," the Mist Whale said.

"Leaving the Boundless Cage, that is outside the cage, right? Outside the cage, what is it called?" Anthony asked.

The Mist Whale said slowly: "This is the last question. Outside the cage, it is called the Wide Domain."

"Aren't you going with us? The God Star will be detonated soon, will it affect you? Aren't you leaving the Boundless Cage together?" Negris asked.

"No, I think it's quite good here," the Mist Whale said.

"The last question, really the last question. Where did the Chaos Mist of your form come from?" Anthony asked. ===== CHAPTER 1428 =====
