Chapter 693 I'd rather trust a dog
Sea God's Palace.
Poseidon and Zeus were sitting on the ground.
"Big brother, the Cosmic Entity wants me to kill either Elric or Lucien," Poseidon said after returning.
Instead of acting against Elric immediately, he called Zeus and shared everything he had witnessed in the battle of the Cosmic Entity's guardians.
"Do you not want to kill?" asked Zeus.
"Of course not!" Poseidon replied, his face wearing a peculiar smile.
He was well aware that their conversation might very well be known to the Cosmic Entity.
Poseidon had no intention of avoiding the Cosmic Entity.
The Cosmic Entity sees high-ranking god-kings as pawns.
With his eyes closed, Zeus said lightly, "Didn't the Cosmic Entity say that killing Elric could help our master?"
Poseidon stared at Zeus and asked, "Do you believe what the Cosmic Entity says?"
Zeus opened his eyes and said, "I'd rather trust a dog."
After saying this, the two high-ranking god-kings looked at each other and laughed!
Dolly had everything planned out perfectly. She even thought that Poseidon, the sea god, would turn around and kill Elric. However, after hearing the conversation between the two high-ranking god-kings, she suddenly lost all interest.
"Poseidon, look, I said that, and the Cosmic Entity didn't strip me of my powers!" Zeus laughed proudly.
Poseidon also laughed and said, "Big brother, as long as our master is alive, the Cosmic Entity wouldn't dare to touch us!"
"Yes, indeed!" Zeus's eyes sparkled with intensity.
While they were talking, Hera appeared in the Sea God's Palace with a young man who looked utterly panicked.
Poseidon and Zeus stood up together.
Approaching them, Hera said, "Indeed, the Cosmic Entity keeps urging various high-ranking god-kings to kill Elric, but both Odin and Uranus want to hold onto this trump card and are hesitant to make a move!"
Poseidon burst into laughter, "It seems that the Cosmic Entity can't personally step in to kill them, otherwise there wouldn't be such a fuss."
Hera pondered, "Let's wait for Mr. Johnson to return before making a decision!"
Now that Lucien and Elric were in the hands of the three high-ranking divine kings of Olympus, these divine kings were no fools. Although they didn't know what the Cosmic Entity was plotting, they were clear on one thing.
They couldn't trust what the Cosmic Entity said!
Especially since the life or death of these two men was linked to William.
If one of them were killed, the obsession that William had once severed would revive.
This matter must be decided by William himself!
An obsession to become stronger?
If William didn't want to become stronger, their task was to prevent this obsession from reviving.
Therefore, neither Lucien nor Elric could die, and both must be kept under their control!
"Keep a close eye on them. I have already agreed that Odin and Uranus will hand over Elric to me, and I will give them the power of my divine halo," Poseidon said.
"You're giving them the power of your divine halo?" Zeus asked.
Poseidon smacked his lips, "I think Hera must have given them a choice, either exchange the power of the divine halo for the person, or start a fight! Since neither Elric nor Lucien can die, it's better to agree with Hera and gain some benefits!"
Hera nodded, "I need to enter a meditative state to enhance my strength, and I hope you'll protect me from external disturbances!"
Poseidon squinted his eyes, "Hera, by handing over the power of your divine halo, are you trying to break free from the control of the Cosmic Entity and become a Sovereign High Divine King?"
No more words were necessary, nor any explanations needed.
The words spoken by Poseidon and Zeus were heard by Hera, and naturally, the Cosmic Entity could hear them too.
They didn't need to discuss further,after making this choice, they trusted that each would support the other in dealing with whatever might come.
In the battle of the Cosmic Entity's guardians, the Cosmic Entity clearly treated the high-ranking god-kings under its control as mere tools, as playthings. They wanted to explore a broader world and pursue a true breakthrough, not to serve as the Cosmic Entity's dogs.
Hera agreed to extract and give the power of her divine halo to Odin, but she had her own plans, even preparing to comprehend the true cosmic truths to ascend as a Sovereign High Divine King.
Hera rarely displayed her divine power, which was profoundly unfathomable.
Although Odin and Uranus had reached some agreements with the Cosmic Entity, they too were unwilling to be the Cosmic Entity's dogs.
Upon realizing the true nature of the power granted by the divine halo, the high-ranking god-kings eventually decided they no longer wanted the power of the divine halo!
Dolly's plans fell through completely!
Sabotaging the Cosmic Entity's plans was a delightful endeavor!
Since the birth of the thirteenth universe, the high-ranking god-kings controlled by the Cosmic Entity seemed to be tightly in its grip, but this time, Poseidon and the others pulled off an ultimate reversal!
Of course, this was predicated on the fact that after witnessing William's strength, Poseidon was convinced that Dolly wouldn't dare touch the three of them.
It was about doing as they pleased, playing the Cosmic Entity!
One moment they talked about killing Elric, the next they were protecting them!
It was all about infuriating Dolly!
Hera forcefully extracted the power of her divine halo, and all the powerful beings in the Divine Realm looked towards the direction of the Palace of the Sea God.
As the high-ranking divine kings of Olympus disabled their divine powers, the Cosmic Entity made a countermove.
The next moment, six strands of the divine halo's power fell into Odin's hands, which he distributed to the Shapeshifters clan, greatly enhancing their strength.
This was the Cosmic Entity's attitude towards the high-ranking god-kings, also declaring her current favoritism towards Odin's Ultimate Force Alliance!
Dolly wasn't annoyed by the actions of the three high-ranking god-kings of Olympus.
To put it bluntly, the three high-ranking god-kings of Olympus no longer wanted to be her dogs!
But she was immensely wealthy, and if some didn't want to serve, there would always be others who would!
Not killing Elric and Lucien, at most, means she doesn't profit, but even if she killed Elric, it wouldn't be a guaranteed profitable deal.
So, not killing them doesn't cause her any loss either!
A dog is gone, just get another one.
As it stands, she hasn't suffered any losses.
On the contrary, the three high-ranking god-kings of Olympus are William's disciples, essentially his direct lineage, always thinking about William, and even considering defying the orders of the Cosmic Entity. What use are they then?
The real humans created by the Cosmic Entity are still those on Earth, those in the Divine Realm, originally created by William. Dolly has wanted to replace them for a while now, and she has other plans too!
For her, this is also an opportunity!
Is it that easy to become a Sovereign High Divine King on one's own?
Even becoming a Sovereign High Divine King, like Odin, she still has him completely under her control!
This is the thirteenth universe, apart from that freak William, whatever anyone else does seems trivial to her!
They are just a bunch of pawns!
It's like when humans see a toy develop self-awareness, their first reaction isn't fear or annoyance, but rather excitement!
Exactly!
The actions of Poseidon and the others now only serve to excite Dolly even more!
The three high-ranking god-kings of Olympus are striving to break free from the control of the Cosmic Entity, while William is absolutely having a blast over there...
