Chapter 345: The Sect Master and the Man Behind the Scenes
The top leaders of the sect headquarters are all mind snatchers, and this sect leader is naturally no exception.
It's just that the difference from ordinary mind snatchers and even the four major temple masters is that the number of tentacles on this sect leader's octopus head is not four, but six!
It may seem like a simple numerical difference, but it's different from the height difference of humans and the length of ears of celestials.
The number of Mind Flayer's tentacles is directly related to the strength of his mind, and a Mind Flayer with six tentacles is inherently stronger than the average Mind Flayer.
In general, people refer to it as "Super Mind Flayer".
A super Mind Flayer like this, in the Mind Flayer Homeland in the Dark Regions, may not be able to appear for hundreds of years.
However, in this starry ocean, the Mind Flayer has only appeared for more than fifty years, and such a strong man has already been born.
Naturally, with six tentacles, he quickly entered the top of the sect after a rapid rise in just eight years, and even took the position of sect leader in the end.
The four Divine Hall Masters had all personally experienced the incomparably powerful spiritual power of this Sect Master, and at this moment, they naturally didn't dare to make the slightest mistake, so they could only listen quietly.
As for Loz, he could only lower his noble octopus head, not saying a word, and did not even dare to mention the idea of rebuttal.
He had to admit that this time he was really in trouble.
Escaping from the battle is nothing, for these high-ranking Mind Snatchers, they think that their lives are far more important than those ordinary believers, let alone hundreds of deaths, even if they die thousands, tens of thousands?
As for the battleship, although it is said that a dragon heavy cruiser is expensive, it is a dead thing after all, and in this resource-rich star ocean, it only means that it will take a certain amount of time to rebuild.
What really bothered Rhodes was the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord.
This is the real scarce resource in the star ocean.
Because the one who provided this Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord was the "Dharma Protector" beside the Supreme Strongman.
This Dharma Protector is mysterious, and existed before the Mind Flayer's Psychic Crystal Pool was established, and it is said that he came to this starry ocean with the Supreme Mighty, and the background is impossible to see.
Although this Dharma Protector did not understand psychic abilities, no Mind Flayer - not even the Super Mind Flayer who was the Sect Master - dared to peek into this person's inner world.
All the Mind Flayers who have done this, or even thought so, are dead.
Their corpses will be collected by the Dharma Protector and thrown back into the Mind Flayer Crystal Pool where the Mind Flayer was born, where they will be broken down by liquid psionic energy and become nutrients again to nourish the next generation of Heart Flayer.
And each time, the Dharma protector would come up with the words, "Next time, it's better not to create an imbecile product with too much curiosity." ”
It seems that in the eyes of this mysterious powerhouse, the Mind Snatcher of all directions is just a product made in his hands.
Since the Dharma Protectors are often active in the sect headquarters, and the real Supreme Strongmen always stay in the central temple deep in the mountains and do not come out, over the years, the Mind Snatchers have revered the Dharma Protectors, especially the Supreme Strong.
This time, too, about half a month ago, this Dharma protector seemed to sense something, and he actually had a solemn expression, and then he did not hesitate to spend great mana to open the teleportation channel to the Demon Realm, and then took out two Hundred Eyed Demon Lords from this passage for the sect to use!
With this Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord with insight ability, the sect headquarters' control over this vast starry ocean suddenly reached a level of meticulousness.
Rats sneaking in from the sky and a sea of clouds.
Members of the Bloody Purification that have lurked in this starry ocean for many years.
One enemy after another was suddenly easily pulled out.
All of this relied on the strength of the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, and all of them relied on the terrifying summons of the Dharma Protector!
But now, as the hall master of the Third Divine Temple, not to mention suffering a big defeat, he even lost the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord!
Lost the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord summoned by the Protector!
There is no doubt that this is not only a trouble, but a great one.
"It's good for you, Loz, to flee all the way back in embarrassment, not even the expeditionary fleet. Have you ever wondered how you're going to explain it to the Dharma Protector next, huh?" the Sect Master's six tentacles curled, and a pair of white eyes stared coldly at his once powerful subordinate.
"My subordinates are very sorry. Loz stretched out a tentacle and wiped the cold sweat that oozed from his head, "Sect Master, please give me another chance!"
"What do you want to do?" the Sect Master asked in a cold voice.
"Please give me another expeditionary fleet!" The previous fleet didn't lose much, there are about seventy percent of the combat power left, plus the new fleet, together, it is enough to sweep the entire star ocean!" Luo Z conveyed his thoughts at an extremely fast speed, he was afraid that if he was slow, he would not have a chance, "We already know the location of the Blood Hell Island, in a short period of time, they will definitely not be able to transfer away, as long as they speed up, they can still completely eradicate the bloody purification!"
"Stupid!" a voice suddenly rang out, like the whisper of gold and iron.
This voice did not sound in the mind in a telepathic way, but a real voice that sounded directly in the air, and the five powerful Mind Flayers were suddenly shocked and a little dizzy.
However, they did not dare to have any grievances.
Because, in the great temple of the sect's headquarters, there is only one person who does not understand the psychic ability and can only speak in a normal way - the Dharma Protector.
The extremely tall man, wrapped in a black cloak, scanned the five Mind Flayers with cold eyes.
His gaze lingered on the sect leader for a moment, but at the end, it stopped on the body of the third temple master Luo Z.
"I can feel that the Hundred-Eyed Lord has been taken over by a human named Midi. The Dharma Protector paused, then spoke again, "In other words, our every move, the movement of our fleet, and the vital points everywhere are all in the field of vision of that human being!
"So, what do you mean, Lord Protector?" the Sect Master sighed and took over.
Although he himself was very dissatisfied with Loz's stupidity, after all, Loz was a Mind Flayer, a capable member of his side, and in the face of a mysterious powerhouse like the Dharma Protector, the Mind Flayer always had to unite to protect himself.
Therefore, he had to stand up, so as not to chill the minds of his subordinates.
It's just that even a super mind snatcher with six tentacles, when facing the deep eyes of the Dharma Protector, this sect leader also felt a kind of coldness from the soul.
"Let's wait and see, I will summon another Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, at least let our side have an advantage in the number of observations, and then see what moves the other party will make, until then, no rash moves. The Dharma Protector said simply, but there was a natural momentum in his tone.
Even if the leader of the Blue Truth Sect was in front of him, his order could not be refused.
The tone of the Dharma protector has such a meaning.
The hall masters and sect masters of the four major temples could only nod their heads in agreement.
"In addition, since you have caused trouble, it is really a bit unreasonable not to punish it. The Dharma Protector groaned for a moment and continued.
As soon as his words fell, Rhodes knew that the Dao was about to suffer.
However, before the temple master could react, a layer of black flames had already ignited around him. The flames were silent, not even heat, but they could not be expelled by magic or psionic energy.
It was like a maggot of tarsal bones, emerging from every pore around Loz's body, burning and gnawing at the soul of this invincible mind snatcher, causing him to let out a hoarse scream of pain and roll around on the ground without any image.
It took a while for the flame to finally go out.
To be more accurate, it was taken back into the palm of the palm by the Dharma protector.
The black flames rolled in the hands of the Dharma Protector in satisfaction as if they were living creatures, and then vanished.
But Loz was already lying unconscious on the ground, unconscious, and fell into a coma.
"Tomorrow, come to me to receive the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, and then monitor that human's movements around the clock, understand?" the protector said in a commanding tone.
He didn't even glance at Loz lying on the ground, and without waiting for the sect leader and the others to respond, he turned around and left, leaving only a terrifying back that was awe-inspiring.
On the second day, as the Dharma Protector said, the passage between the stars and the demon realm across the dimension was easily torn apart by his powerful magic, and another lucky or unlucky Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord was caught in the Blue Truth Sect, and was immediately controlled by the temple master who was ready to do so.
So, now, Midi has one Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord on his side, and two Hundred-Eyed Demon Lords on the sect headquarters.
Under the incomparably powerful insight of these three Hundred-Eyed Demon Lords, the veil of the entire Star Ocean has been completely torn off.
The key positions that the two sides hid and hidden, the floating islands where they hoarded troops and warships, the secret routes that had been operating for many years, and so on, were all exposed to the enemy's vision.
Not only that, but over time, this kind of scanning has spread to every corner of the starry ocean.
The resources possessed by each floating island, the types of resources, and the distribution of ore veins, etc., due to the insight of the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, can be seen to a certain extent, so it is even possible to penetrate the rock formations and directly see the richness of the ore veins themselves.
After scanning like this, there is something in every corner of Xingyang, and both sides almost know what is in the palm of their hand.
Whether it is war, confrontation, or simply resource exploitation, everything is laid out on the bright side.
In this sense, this can no longer be considered a war in the true sense of the word.
It's a game of chess.
With Xingyang as the chessboard and the strength of both sides as the chess pieces, it is an undisguised bright chess.
