CHAPTER 327: CHAPTER 204: A PLACE EASY TO DEFEND BUT HARD TO ATTACK
"Jis!" El suddenly intensified his tone, Primordial Energy surged out, "What exactly are they? Are they the Gods! Are they the Gods you’ve been pursuing all along!"
These words seemed to have an effect.
Jis’s gaze slightly came into focus.
It seemed he barely used his remaining sense to observe the presence before him, those bewildered eyes barely focusing for a moment.
This brief focus was naturally caught by El, who felt a slight joy in his heart, immediately gathering powerful energy to carefully help maintain that sliver of consciousness in Jis. He probably couldn’t imagine that he would have a day to help one of the greatest outlaws.
But at this moment, nothing was more important than the information from an unknown force in the depths of the Cosmos.
Jis was also striving to maintain his mind.
In the end, he was finally able to say something with difficulty.
"They... are not the Gods!" Jis seemed to remember something, his eyes filled with unspeakable fear, and an indescribable yearning, "They are more powerful than the Gods. I saw the overlapping deep space, saw the dwelling of the True Gods, and also saw, saw..."
When he reached this point, he suddenly couldn’t utter a single word, his expression becoming indescribably hideous.
As if recalling some extremely terrifying event.
In the end, he began to struggle frantically, shouting loudly at El: "They know everything now, they already know everything about us from my mind! Don’t think about resisting, the Cosmic People cannot resist!"
This final outburst seemed to have exhausted all his strength.
Jis’s entire being collapsed in an instant.
Then he couldn’t say a single extra word.
Returning again to the state from the beginning.
At this moment, El’s face had also turned pale.
Ordinary people may not sense anything, but he had actually concentrated a small part of his consciousness into Jis’s consciousness just now, so he could clearly feel Jis’s fear, shock, and that frantic yearning for power.
This was absolutely genuine.
Although he still didn’t know exactly what Jis saw or experienced, being able to evoke such emotions from Jis was already enough to show the tip of the iceberg.
"We must gather more people..." El gritted his teeth, "I can’t know more, but if we concentrate the power of the elders... maybe we can get more information from Jis’s mind."
This seemed to be the only way for now.
But time might not be enough.
El deeply realized that even if their Cosmic Civilization had created such glory over these millennia, even stepping out of the Mother Star and into the Cosmos, leaving footprints across the entire Star System, this was their limit. They couldn’t even fully control an area of about one light-year, finding it difficult to quickly deploy information and personnel.
So now, all they were doing was merely struggling.
El slowly exhaled, trying to dispel all the emotions in his mind.
Then hurried back to where the elder’s projection was, conveying the new information he had obtained from Jis to the elder.
"That will do for now." The Divine Court elder also was very decisive, "These messages are already enough, time is the most important."
Even among the core members of the Divine Court, only a very small number could split themselves. This power to transmit information in a short time was extremely precious, but at this moment, they could only convey this scant information.
After this elder’s projection made the decision, in the next moment, his figure directly disappeared from the original spot.
El knew.
At this moment, the Divine Court Holy Land on the Mother Star had already been informed of everything that happened here.
This made him slightly relieved.
At the very least, the Fire plan can be executed immediately.
However, he wasn’t completely without tasks here.
"Jis still needs personnel arranged here to obtain as much information as possible. Besides, I plan to take some personnel and leave the shadows, heading in the direction Jis returned from for a detailed investigation." El said.
"You’re going personally?" The Regional Sect Leader beside him seemed a bit concerned.
"A Strong Person can always discover more things and can better use the Divine Artifact." El had already made up his mind.
The Regional Sect Leader naturally couldn’t oppose further, and in the end, could only say softly, "May the Gods bless their devout followers."
If it were in the past, El would surely respond with something, perhaps even start a prayer.
But at this moment, he said nothing.
This behavior, which should have been punished, did not get any doubt from the Regional Sect Leader either.
Just because they both knew well.
Gods?
This time, even if the true Gods returned and miracles reoccurred, they probably couldn’t change anything.
"Perhaps, someone like Jis is the true believer." El said to himself with irony, "We, on the contrary, are the ones who have abandoned faith."
The existence of Gods permeated the entire development of the Cosmic Civilization, but as the civilization developed, as understanding of the interstellar, the Cosmos, and various scientific technologies grew stronger, faith was actually no longer what it once was.
