Global Deities: My Talent Comes from the Stars

Chapter 14 Companions? Enemies

Seeing that Liang Jiu had no reaction, the bespectacled boy seemed to think of him as a country bumpkin who had never seen the world and didn't even know about the divine feedback system, so he also felt bored. He snorted coldly, turned around and placed his hand on the access point.

The girl next to him silently completed the connection simultaneously.

"boom."

After a brief period of confusion and dizziness, Liang Jiu's consciousness was suddenly pulled up to the boundless sky.

Looking down, this is a high-level divine realm pieced together from eight fragments of terrain, with a total area of ​​an astonishing 320,000 square kilometers.

This level of territory is still very small compared to the legendary earthly divine kingdoms, but for students who are still in the divine seed stage, it is boundless.

At the edge of their vision, three tiny landmasses representing their natal divine domains were squeezing in from the void like pieces of a puzzle, forcibly connecting with the edge of this vast continent.

As the connection was completed, Liang Jiu narrowed his eyes slightly.

Apart from the original birthplace of his own Necromancers, most of this vast continent was shrouded in a thick layer of grayish-white mist when viewed from above by divine sense.

His divine power could not penetrate this barrier, nor could it see the terrain, resource distribution, and hidden dangers beneath the fog.

The fog of war.

Liang Jiu understood. As expected of a level three unclaimed divine domain, even though its gods had long since perished, the extraordinary creatures that thrived there could still spontaneously mobilize enormous divine power to conceal the secrets of heaven and protect their territory, relying on their sheer numbers and instinctive faith. Although not particularly sophisticated, it was more than enough to deal with students at the divine seed stage.

It seems that in order to obtain resources and intelligence, we must first find a way to dispel this fog.

He lowered his gaze.

At the edge of their initial territory, countless tiny points of light, like sparks, spread towards the unknown wilderness. These were the exploration teams of the Smoldering Clan, who had received the divine decree. Under Chang's command, they were well-prepared, all capable young men of the Smoldering Clan, able to demonstrate formidable combat prowess even in unfamiliar environments.

The relatives are the eyes and ears of the gods.

Each time these points of light advance a little further through the mud and thorns, a corner of the fog in the sky dissipates, illuminating a completely new and real view for him.

The vanguard of the Salmon Clan is spreading out like a large net, methodically reaching the edge of the unclaimed divine realm.

Through the shared perspective of his family members, Liang Jiu also pieced together basic information about the border area.

Bordering the initial territory of the Xin Clan is a desolate desert, sparsely populated, resource-poor, and underdeveloped.

This is neither good nor bad news.

The desert environment is barren, and it is highly unlikely that it was the original home of the divine realm's inhabitants. This means that in the early stages of exploration, the Sinker will not encounter organized, high-intensity resistance, allowing them to establish a foothold with peace of mind and have a relatively stable start.

However, this also means that the unknown enemy possesses vast strategic depth. Before figuring out the true nature of the enemy hidden beneath the fog, sending one's own forces rashly into such a situation could easily lead to being attacked from both sides.

As Liang Jiu was calculating the scale of the advancement, a slight tremor came from his divine sense.

The first battle that the Salaried Tribe encountered in this world has broken out.

With a slight shift in his thoughts, Liang Jiu's perspective instantly traversed space, landing above a member of the expedition team.

Looking down from above.

On the barren desert, a Spirit Warrior races across the sand dunes and withered trees. They are natural hunters, forged in the harshness of nature, and with the added strength of their physiques, every thrust and change of direction is as powerful as a cheetah.

Behind him, a huge lizard was hot on his heels.

Gomog

Rank: Transcendent Tier 1

"Characteristic: Venom glands"

"A top predator in the desert, highly venomous, it originated from outside but has thrived on this land for thousands of years, and has now fully integrated into this divine realm, becoming a native species."

A foul wind howled, and the gigantic maw, full of fangs, bit down several times, brushing against the back of the Spirit Warrior, but he narrowly avoided it each time.

The repeated failures to reach the target thoroughly enraged the giant beast.

The lizard let out a hoarse growl from deep within its throat, and with a sudden opening of its massive jaws, it spat out a foul-smelling, dark green venomous ball.

But the Sinker warrior seemed to have eyes in the back of his head, and suddenly flipped over a thick, dead tree lying across the sand.

The poisonous ball struck the dead tree, corroding a large, charred pit and sending up a pungent, poisonous miasma.

High above, Liang Jiu watched this scene with some disappointment.

Although this giant lizard had already touched the edge of the extraordinary, evolving the ability to attack with energy separated from its body, its brain was ultimately still dominated by primitive beastly instincts. It was impossible to gain faith from it, nor could it be tamed and turned into combat power.

This foolish beast is now being led little by little into the deadly encirclement that the hunters have already set up.

......

The law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak, is the only defining characteristic of this desert.

The relationship between predator and prey is so clear and unchanging.

This gomomon lizard has preyed on similar two-legged creatures before.

In its remaining wild memories, it had attacked the camps of two-legged creatures under the cover of night.

They have no tough skin, no sharp claws or teeth. When they see themselves, most of them scatter and run away, some are even too frightened to move.

Timid, weak, and delicious.

This is all the information it has about this type of prey.

Although occasionally a few special individuals might emit a blinding golden light that tightly protects their bodies, making it difficult for the beast to bite them, and even causing it to become dizzy, in the end, those two-legged beasts will still be corroded into a pile of rotten flesh by its venom.

Those special individuals are even more delicious, containing power that makes them strong.

Unfortunately, after that, those two-legged people have not dared to set foot in its territory for a long time.

So when this two-legged creature appeared before him, even though it was taller, bigger, and even more agile than its kind in his memory, the Gomo giant lizard did not hesitate at all.

There is only one.

Its instinct-driven brain was convinced that this was destined to be a feast for it, and perhaps it could take it even further.

It fearlessly leaped over the dead tree and greedily pounced on its prey that was within arm's reach.

Until the surrounding camouflage of yellow sand was suddenly ripped away, several two-legged creatures crawled out from inside.

Flames rose up from all around the trap without warning, clinging to and scorching its flesh.

Until several bronze spears pierced its eyes.

The fundamental nature of this desert has never changed: the law of the jungle prevails, and unfortunately, it became the first prey of outsiders.
