Chapter 315 Finalizing the Strategy
"Wait, why is he the commander-in-chief?!"
With this voice, everyone at the conference table looked at Fucaros who had one hand raised. The God of Fire could no longer sit still, and flames burst out all over his body, and he was furious.
"If you dare to say another word of nonsense, I will start a duel of gods and send you back to Fontaine!"
"Why are you in such a hurry? I didn't say I wanted to sit in this position. I just want to ask, he has been in the main seat from the beginning, and he is also the father of the Ice God. He is not using personal gain to gain public benefits, right?"
Fucaros placed her hands on her chin and slightly closed her eyes, as if she had discovered some shocking secret, but she never thought about why the Ice God dared to speak so directly and generously about the connection between them.
The Rock God Morax, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up and said slowly: "Mo Ran is the strongest among us, there is no doubt about that."
"But fighting is not just about fists, there are more important things." Fukaros said, nodding his head and said, "Strategy is the most important!"
"You talk too much." Lei Dianying yawned. If she hadn't known that her brother would definitely try to stop her, and if she hadn't been aware that the guy over there was equally powerful as her, she would have chopped him down with her knife long ago.
Lei Dianzhen explained: "I don't know how strong my brother's strategy is, but it's not worse than yours!"
"It doesn't matter if you talk too much, as long as you say the right thing!" Fukaros looked at the man in black, staring at him closely, and said, "From the beginning to the end, others have been answering for you. Don't you plan to say something yourself?"
"Fukaros!" Phoenix raised his hand and clenched his fist. A blazing fire condensed in his hand. If this punch was delivered, the Water God would be seriously injured if not killed.
The figure of Villette flashed, and he jumped between the two gods, erected several water curtains, and a walking stick appeared in his hand, ready for battle.
"Okay, what she said is not wrong!" Mo Ran spoke out to stop her, and when his pressure was released, the flames were extinguished and the water curtain was broken.
"Everyone go back and sit down!"
Mo Ran saw that if he didn't maintain order, not only would the palace have to be rebuilt, but the resistance camp would also be split up. He originally wanted to rule by doing nothing, but now he had no choice but to choose strict and iron-blooded laws.
"Fucarlos." Mo Ran looked at her and spoke lightly.
Fukaros curled up on the throne, raised his hand tremblingly, and whispered, "Yes."
"The strategy you just mentioned is at least somewhat effective in battles among humans, or even between demons. But the one in the sky is different. The terrifying power he possesses cannot be compensated by strategy!"
Mo Ran supported the conference table with both hands and continued, "In the face of absolutely overwhelming strength, our strategies are useless, so this meeting is actually arranged for the safety of the people in the rear, not the main battlefield."
"Because none of us knows who has the power to create the world or destroy it at will, so the protection of Teyvat is the top priority."
Fucaros was at a loss for words and could only nod, because it sounded so reasonable.
Mo Ran then slowly said: "So now, do you have any other opinions?"
"No, no." Fucaros shook her head repeatedly. As the saying goes, a man who knows the times is a hero. She is not the kind of person who will not turn back until she hits the wall.
"Okay." Mo Ran took his hands off the conference table, flicked his fingers, and set down a water curtain on the table, forming a comprehensive map of the continent of Teyvat.
"On the day the war begins, the people heading to the battlefield in the sky are the five earthly rulers of Ice, Rock, Fire, Wind, and Thunder, as well as Navilet, the Grass Dragon Apep, who was once a follower of the Dragon King, and me."
"There are eight in total. I have fought against the one in the sky several times, so I will contain him. As for the rest, you should follow the command of Morax, the strongest among you, in the war. Is there any objection?"
The Fire God glanced at the Rock King Emperor and said, "The Rock King is the strongest of the Seven Rulers. I have no objection."
The others agreed unanimously. Barbatos said quietly, "Old man, please be careful. I'll be back soon and invite everyone to go to Mond for a drink!"
"If possible, I will not break this agreement." Morax nodded slightly, and a vicissitudes of life appeared in his amber eyes.
"I have a question." Navilette asked, "Any news about other dragon kings or followers?"
As the second generation Water Dragon King, he naturally missed his former tribesmen. Although he had no memories of them, the obsession in his heart was hard to erase. The concept of race cannot be offset by a human body alone.
“I’m afraid there’s no way around it.” The Great Compassionate Tree King shook his head and explained, “Regarding the records of other Dragon King reincarnations, the World Tree is completely blank, as if they were erased by someone. There’s no trace left.”
Mo Ran continued, "The last time I was in the World Tree, I didn't get any news about the Dragon King's reincarnation. I'm afraid that person in the sky has erased it!"
"Is that so?" Although Villette was unwilling, he had no other choice. If the one in the sky had not been asleep, he would not have been born and would have been strangled in the embryo.
Mo Ran stroked his chin with one hand and said slowly: "Then let's continue to arrange Teyvat's war preparations."
"Wait, I have another question." Fukaros raised her hand again. To avoid being kicked out before she finished speaking, she spoke quickly: "Why can't I, the two Grass Gods, and the First Thunder God go to the battlefield in the sky?"
Phoenix clenched his fists, trying his best to control his anger, not punching directly and killing the water god's mind and body. He gritted his teeth and said, "Hold back all your nonsense!"
"Isn't it obvious? You are not strong enough. Are you going to cause trouble?" Lei Dianying held her chin with one hand. Compared with the hot-tempered God of Fire, her statement was like that of a bodhisattva.
Barbatos groaned and said a little embarrassedly: "If you put it this way, it seems that I am the weakest in the battlefield in the sky!"
"Don't worry about that. Apep is here to keep you company." Mo Ran didn't know whether he was trying to comfort or take advantage of the situation. He then continued, "Xiao Ling, Ying, and Phoenix, the three of you are all on par with each other in strength."
"Morax is the strongest, but if it's one against three, I'm afraid I can't kill all of you in a quarter of an hour. Um... and Villette,"
"Although the First Dragon King is very powerful, you are a reincarnated body, your strength has been reduced, and you are still a very fragile human body. Be careful when fighting."
"I know that." Villette nodded slightly. He was not good at expressing his feelings and usually didn't talk much. He basically believed in not speaking if he could take action.
If they were of equal strength, then if Villette fought against any of the three gods of thunder, ice, and fire, he would probably be at a disadvantage, because the human body is much more fragile than that of the demon.
Even Mo Ran today would not dare to use his body to completely withstand the attack of a top demon god during a battle. At the very least, he would wrap it up with immortal power or attach a layer of rock shield.
This is the disadvantage of human beings, but the endless potential is definitely not possessed by other creatures. Unfortunately, there is a trade-off when there is a gain, and it is too difficult and too hard for human beings to grow up.
"Ahem." Mo Ran cleared his throat and continued, "Then the issue of the protection of Teyvat will be left to the subordinates of everyone present to solve."
As he spoke, Mo Ran pointed to the missing area on the plate and said, "The defeated demon gods in the Dark Sea did not dare to attack because of the power of the one in the sky. But if there is turmoil in the sky, they will definitely attack in groups and return to Teyvat."
"The demon gods staying in the Dark Sea are actually weaker than the weakest earthly rulers, but because they have been staying in this secluded place for many years, they all have more or less forbidden knowledge."
"Once we return to Teyvat, the consequences will be disastrous. It will probably be a disaster even more difficult than the Darkness and Filth. This requires the presence of mid-level combat power to guard the border."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was no dissenting voice in the audience. Even Fucaros had learned his lesson and stopped singing the opposite tune.
"After that, please pass the message back and ask them to come to Zhidong as soon as possible and make preparations!" After Mo Ran finished speaking, he looked at the idlers and said, "Morax, ask the Three-Eyed Five-Manifested Immortals to hurry up. I want to set up a large formation and need them to act as directional beasts."
"Okay." Morax responded, closed his eyes, used the dream technique to force the immortals into a dream, and told them to rush to Zhidong.
Mo Ling also went to notify the Fatui, but only the top three seats with only two people left could play a role.
Barbatos turned into a wisp of wind, flew out of the palace, stood on the roof and played the piano. The melodious and high-pitched music indicated that the situation was very urgent.
A flash of lightning passed by, and Lei Dianying hurried back to Inazuma to call all his relatives, including his son and daughter, and in one fell swoop became the one who contributed the most personnel among the army of relatives.
For a while, there was nothing to do in the palace, including Mo Ran who had no followers, the stubborn God of Fire and the God of Water whose subordinates were already there, the big and small Grass Gods whose followers had weak combat power, and Lei Dianzhen who did not have to run away by himself.
They looked at each other, and finally all their eyes fell on a man in black.
Mo Ran raised his eyebrows. What were they looking at him for?
Phoenix hesitated for a moment and said, "Military Advisor Mo, ahem, I usually call those who offer advice this way, do you mind?"
"Just whatever you want." Mo Ran waved his hand. He didn't have much objection to the name.
"That's good. Military Advisor Mo is so powerful, but doesn't he have any followers?" Phoenix couldn't help but be curious. After all, among the Seven Gods, he was the only one who didn't have any followers. He fought wars, founded countries, created laws, and did everything himself.
This may seem like the more capable people are, the more work they should do, but in reality it is self-willed and can easily lead to a deadlock, so Phoenix wants to see what this person's philosophy is.
"Indeed, there isn't one, but there's no need for one." Mo Ran leaned back in his chair, put his hands together, and said with emotion: "I know half of the Seven Gods, and they also have many good friends among their families."
"What's more, the followers are nothing but chicken ribs to me. It's tasteless to eat them, but it's a pity to throw them away. So I gave some of the followers to the Thunder God as a gift."
Raiden Shin laughed softly and said, "Brother, what you said is true. The Sasayuri Tengu clan under my command, as well as the demon clans Mimi Chiyo, Umi Orobas, Tsurukan Kapachiri, and even the demon fox clan of Kitsusai Palace are all closely related to brother."
"We are one family and should not have different opinions. Besides, my brother brought her back, so it is not an exaggeration to say that she is his relative."
"If that's the case, then my perspective is shallow." Phoenix thought, he might as well find a follower someday, it's tiring to do everything by himself all the time.
Fucaros on the side originally wanted to laugh at him, but after what he just experienced, he wisely shut his mouth.
Not long after, Morax, who had performed the dream-telling technique, opened his eyes. His amber pupils were slightly sad. He took the Heart of God from his old friend and murmured in a low voice, "Old friend, if you are okay, how would you perform in this battle..."
