Every time the news of Archean creatures broke out, crowds of people would scour the land to go and find them. All of them wanted to feel the power of the Archean creatures.
They knew that capturing an Archean Beast would reap massive benefits for them.
This time, there seemed to be an Archean creature in the Tussle Region. If the news spread to the outside regions, their strong warriors were sure to rush over. Even Lord Starry Sword himself would probably make an appearance.
Naturally, the news had to be contained in order to prevent chaos. Only the most powerful people in the Tussle Region would know about it.
"It's about time."
Akbar observed the top of the mountain for several hours and found that the cracks on the ball were increasing. He was ready for battle.
"Why not wait?" Darren responded.
"There's no time to fret. If we get there too late, we won't stand a chance." Akbar was visibly anxious.
"Wait, didn't you say that the strength of those people are pretty much the same? Just let them all scramble for it, then. It won't take too much time for them to realize they can't capture it. What if it's stronger than a superior god? It would be too dangerous to act rashly.
Let them try and kill each other off first. The chances of obtaining it will be higher after that," advised Darren.
"Ha-ha." Akbar shook his head and with a soft chuckle, he said, "Darren, you are indeed a youngster. Don't try to pull any tricks here. You're going to make me look bad. All of those people in that crowd have lived for millions of years. Do you really think they'd just let you dupe them?
If I don't go over there and play fairly, even if they do injure each other, they'll gang up on me the moment I get in. That would be the proper punishment for a nasty opportunist."
Hearing this, Darren was stunned for a moment, and gave a bitter smile.
"I guess I'm overthinking this. You're right; it's useless to play tricks on the really strong warriors. I must look really stupid right now," said Darren.
"It's good that you understand. I'll be on my way now."
Akbar then soared into the air.
"Be careful! You'd better escape quickly if you don't manage to get it!" Darren shouted from behind.
"I know what I'm doing," replied Akbar.
Darren felt his heart tighten, as if someone had grabbed on to it. He didn't want anything bad to happen to Akbar.
"I guess even great masters at the Superior God Realm have great troubles," said Darren with a sigh.
"Darren, what should we do now? If a fight breaks down over there, it's absolutely not safe for us to stay here. Even just the collision waves might be enough to kill us," said Lindsay with a worried look.
"That's true. We have to fall back at least a million kilometers to be safe," stated Darren.
"But if that's the case, we'll miss seeing the birth of the Archean Beast, and we won't see the battle at all. More importantly, I won't be able to keep my eye on Lord Akbar. I'm really worried about him," said Murphy.
"How about this? We can hide in my space. As long as we aren't hit head on, the space won't break. We can stay safe while we watch the nearby battle," suggested Lindsay.
"Your space?" Darren turned around and gave her a concerned look. After a moment he said, "Is your space strong enough to hold that? Don't forget, the fiend prince broke through your space."
"That's different! Given my strength level, only the entrance of the space is weak. But the rest of the space can absolutely withstand the attack from the superior gods," she explained.
"That's not a very good idea. The dispersed forces are going to be on all directions. The entrance to your space has a high chance of getting hit and by then we'll all die," said Darren in fervent disagreement.
"You don't understand. If the entrance is under the control of Master Murphy, the entrance will be secured. The dispersed forces from the fight won't be able to break through." Lindsay had a look of confidence with the bright smile she showed.
"Really? Are you sure?" Darren asked, with his eyes lighting up.
