The premium-grade divine god hesitated before kneeling.
He didn't seem to have a choice for he didn't want to piss off the leader of the alliance.
Overall, Austin's army scared him the most.
If Austin weren't in charge of the troops, the premium-grade divine god wouldn't even bother to cast
him a glance.
"No offense taken," Austin said emotionlessly without even looking at him.
With a wave of his sleeve, he released a force to help the premium-grade divine god stand.
The expression on the ordinary premium-grade divine god's face changed from contempt to surprise.
Austin knew exactly what he was thinking.
However, Austin didn't want to point it out.
He wasn't worth the time or the words.
'Whoa! What was that?'
The premium-grade divine god gaped at Austin, refusing to believe his own eyes.
'He only waved his hand lightly, but the force that he released managed to lift me up against my will.
No ordinary preliminary-grade divine god can do that, ' the premium-grade divine god thought.
'No way!
I must be mistaken.
I think I know what happened.
I relaxed my guard, and he took advantage of that.
He is just an ordinary preliminary-grade divine god. He is as weak as an ant compared to me. There is
no way that he could have lifted me up if I hadn't relaxed my guard, ' he reasoned with himself.
Even though Austin had bettered him, the premium-grade divine god held great contempt towards him.
However, he had to be smart so he bottled it up.
"Are you sure you want to join our alliance?
I have to warn you, if you join us, you must follow my orders.
If you disobey me, you will die.
So you'd better take time to think it over,"
Austin explained slowly as he glanced at hundreds of local divine gods.
They looked a bit hesitant and then they began to discuss it amongst each other through their spiritual
sense.
A moment later, they came forward and stood in front of Austin.
"Sir, we have reached an agreement to join the alliance and fight against the beast race with you.
Please accept us,"
all the divine gods said with much respect as one.
After some discussion, they had discovered joining Austin was in their best interest.
After all, the troops of the beast race would come back.
They needed more people in their corner so that they could stand a chance against the beast race.
"If you insist."
Austin nodded in agreement.
This was no big deal to him.
He even didn't care if they would betray him in the future.
"Leader, what should we do next?"
the white-haired premium-grade divine god asked Austin.
"Retreat from this universe community and go back to the Infinite City. We need to spend a few days
resting,"
Austin answered.
"Copy that."
The white-haired premium-grade divine god nodded.
He never questioned Austin's authority.
Then they all turned and began exiting this universe community.
The Infinite City was hiding nearby so it didn't take long before they were all back inside.
However, Austin hung back because he had other things to attend to.
The genuine medium-grade divine god of the beast race was in the middle of healing his wounds and
Austin had to stay here to ensure no one interrupted the process.
He had attached great importance to this slave.
He was powerful and Austin needed him to recover and regain his strength so that he could use him
against his enemies.
After five days, the genuine medium-grade divine god of the beast race stood up.
"Master, I'm getting better," he said to Austin.
"Really?
That's great to hear," Austin responded.
He closed his eyes and sensed the aura that his slave emitted, finding that he had fully recovered.
"Master, here you are. These are the rest of treasures that you gave me."
Austin stood still as the member of the beast race, waved his hand and revealed many precious items.
They floated and bobbed in front of Austin's nose.
'Oh no! He's used so many of them, ' Austin thought.
Silently, he counted the number of the treasures and found that his slave had used two thirds of the
treasures that he had given him.
Austin had been generous when he had given him some of his rare treasures.
He hadn't expected that
there would be only a small portion of them left.
Austin felt his heart ache.
"Master, you can just call me Wilfred from now on.
In the Beast City, all my kind called me Lord Wilfred,"
the member of the beast race mentioned.
"Okay. Good name. I will call you Wilfred."
Austin nodded.
"Now that that's out of the way, you can count on me, master.
I will get you into the Land of Outlaw at all costs,"
Wilfred reassured Austin.
Austin had controlled this genuine divine god by using the Puppet Strings. Deep in his soul, he had
considered Austin his master. So he respected Austin and would do whatever he could to serve
Austin's interests.
"Good. I do want to explore the Land of Outlaw,"
Austin said.
"Don't worry, master. It's in my hands,"
Wilfred said, jutting out his chest.
"There is just one thing, master. If you want to go there, you have to set off soon.
You see, a few days ago, the Outlaw of Land appeared in the Sea of Chaos out of thin air.
As soon as the news about that spread, several super powerful forces immediately sent people to
guard the entrance. They refuse to let people from other forces enter.
I've heard discussions from the leaders of those forces.
I heard that each of them are going to send some ordinary divine gods and genuine divine gods to
explore the Land of Outlaw.
Our Beast City had made a preliminary list.
Two days ago, I received a notice from the headquarters that I needed to go back and prepare to enter
the Land of Outlaw.
I was one of the ones ordered to go there,"
Wilfred explained.
"I see.
So how can you get me in there?
What if your superiors suspect me?"
Austin voiced out his thoughts.
"Master, there is something you don't know.
Recently, we have been attacking cities and seizing the territories. Lots of forces have surrendered to
us.
As a reward, the genuine divine gods like me each has gotten a large number of slaves and we take
them with us no matter where we go.
I had tens of millions of slaves who were loyal to me and served me well not long ago,"
Wilfred explained.
"What? You had so many slaves?
Where did they go? Why haven't I seen any of them?"
Austin spat out.
"Master, all my slaves died at your hands.
Your purple sword is way too powerful.
It killed all my slaves in a heartbeat,"
Wilfred replied in embarrassment.
"I see."
Austin laughed and the genuine divine god looked at him curiously.
'When I first came here, I wanted to wipe out all the members of the Beast City.
It is very possible that I slaughtered all his slaves, ' he thought to himself.
"Master, you can pretend to be my slave and keep a low profile.
That way, we can enter the Land of Outlaw together.
I assume that the others will also bring their slaves with them.
I totally get it because if they encounter any danger, they can let the slaves die for them,"
Wilfred said.
"Okay.
I agree.
Let's stick to your plan,"
Austin said with a nod.
'This should work perfectly.
Wilfred was chosen by the core members at the headquarters of the Beast City, and he was tasked
with looking for treasures in the Land of Outlaw.
If I pretend to be his slave, I can follow him into the Land of Outlaw without being noticed, ' Austin
thought to himself.
"Master, I think we should get going now.
Otherwise, we might miss our opportunity,"
Wilfred said.
