Chapter 652: Stars like this, there are 300 billion of them in this galaxy!
Ogg's words did not frighten Lynn; he was also aware that relying solely on a black hole would not keep the gods of the main world at bay forever, so they were also actively preparing for war during this time.
Following that, Lynn posed a very important question.
"What else can you do for us?"
Ogg's expression hardened; he understood that the crucial moment had arrived, status was always determined by value!
"I can serve as a bridge between you wizards and the gods of the main world. I think you would not want to confront hundreds of gods at the same time, would you?" Ogg said, pondering.
He was well aware of what the Wizard Council wanted.
From initially withdrawing from foreign territories to later using a black hole to block the spacetime pathways, it was clear that these wizards were definitely not as capable in direct combat as those from the main world; otherwise, they would have started a war long ago, and wouldn't be so wary.
Thus, forming alliances became their top priority!
Of course, all this was predicated on the Magic Empire demonstrating sufficient strength in subsequent confrontations; otherwise, all the rhetoric would be futile.
Lynn nodded; from the beginning, when facing threats from the main world, they had considered this strategy—to play one faction against another!
Initially, Ella had sent a raven pretending to be an Angel Envoy of the God of Life and Creation, luring the Lord of the Undead into a decisive battle, and successfully extracting chestnuts from the fire, tricking both sides at the same time. Adding to this, they did not have a chance to meet with other neutral or potentially allied gods, so they had to temporarily shelf this idea.
The real God of Life and Creation's appearance was undoubtedly a new opportunity...
Sensing that Lynn's hostility had lessened, Ogg also slightly relaxed inside, and then he began to discuss another very important issue—compensation!
To win over the gods of the main world, benefits were certainly necessary...
"How about exchanging it for divine domains?" Lynn suggested with a smile.
"How many worlds do you control?" Ogg asked eagerly, which was also a major reason for his defection.
According to the God Morags, it was a region even more vast than the main world, capable of giving birth to several new major gods!
Lynn did not answer directly but pointed to a distant object—a huge fireball standing in the cosmic void.
"Is that your world's star?" the God of Life and Creation asked, turning to look, not particularly surprised.
The stars of the main world are much larger...
"Indeed." Lynn nodded, then continued. "Like this star, there are three hundred billion such stars in this galaxy!"
Three hundred... billion stars?
Ogg almost doubted whether he had misheard, maybe it was three thousand?
But as a god, a high-dimensional life form, he couldn't possibly make such a basic mistake as mishearing.
"In this void, every point of light you see is a star, and the number of planets is several times that..." Lynn said nonchalantly.
Ogg was indescribably shocked; although he had anticipated it, the vastness of the great universe still exceeded his imagination.
In his astonishment, Ogg did not let this shocking news confuse him, but quickly asked.
"Do these planes have other gods?"
"No!" Lynn shook his head, but before Ogg could get excited, he spoke again. "However, there are rules here, and a god like you, once you leave the range ruled by the council, is likely to be captured for research."
Ogg was skeptical; the might of gods was beyond doubt. He couldn't help but suspect that the other party might be deceiving him.
"Do you see those warships?" Lynn pointed towards an experimental warship flying over the moon. "Each warship possesses power comparable to a lesser god, and we have thousands of such warships!"
Ogg immediately put aside his disdain; he had witnessed it before in the Moon God Domain.
A single warship fighting a god might be an exaggeration, but when the numbers add up, they are indeed hard to deal with.
"So, in this vast starfield, how much belongs to the wizards? What other forces are there?" Ogg suddenly asked.
Lynn obviously understood that the other party was assessing the strength of the Wizard Council to decide whether to collaborate or search for another partner, and snapped his fingers.
"About this area!"
The moment Lynn's voice fell, countless dense points of light appeared in the void—a galaxy shrunk by countless times, yet it still appeared vast, with a palm-sized area emitting blue light.
This was the starfield under the rule of the Magic Empire, but it also encompassed the territories of the Geometric Civilization.
"It doesn't seem very large..." Ogg said, his eyebrows raised, as the cluster of stars emitting blue light appeared minuscule within the vast galaxy.
"Spanning four thousand seven hundred light-years left and right, top and bottom, at twice the speed of light, it would take you more than two thousand years to fly from one end to the other!" Lynn added, explaining the concepts of light speed and light years to Ogg.
In this area, there are tens of millions of stars at the very least. Even if only one percent, or even one thousandth, of the environment-suitable planets could be transformed and evolve life, that would still be an astonishing number.
Lynn was reminding the other party that the power held by the wizards far surpassed expectations. If he offended the council and tried to sneak away, it would take him thousands of years to escape this starfield...
Is it really... this big? Ogg's complexion changed as he looked again at the vast starry sky, an expanse so vast that no matter how he expanded his senses, he could not detect where its end lay.
"Has the God Morags assigned you any other tasks?" Lynn questioned again.
"Apart from obtaining information about the wizards, nothing else," Ogg said, his gaze flickering.
A smile appeared on Lynn's face. "In that case, during this period, why don't I assign you a task!"
Ogg's expression turned grave; in his view, after disclosing so much information about the main world, he should already be considered to have shown his loyalty.
"In my view, the Creation Divine Position should be well-suited for terraforming planets..." Lynn confidently said.
Ogg hesitated, nodding, somewhat uncertain of the other's intentions.
"Within the starfield we rule, there are countless properly sized planets that the council currently lacks the manpower to transform, wasting resources..." Lynn began slowly. "If you're interested, why not take on this job? For every fifteen planets you transform, you can choose one as your own divine domain!"
