Strongest Hammer God novel Chapter 994

"Probably to strengthen the Elemental Dimension," Kyle said. "Their Formation Arrays are probably consuming a ton of Energy. Without more Elementals, it might run out."

"No," Sebastian and Star Genesis said at the same time.

Kyle's brows rose, and his head moved back a bit. "Okay, sure, guess not."

"You don't need to make Elementals, Kyle," Sebastian said with a helpless sigh. "The Elemental Energies are so dense that countless Elementals are born every second. Making an Elemental isn't hard, as long as you have sufficient Elemental Energy. Making a beast is much harder and takes more effort. Turning a beast into an Elemental is like exchanging a Grade Six Energy Stone for a Grade Four Energy Stone. It makes no sense."

"There has to be a different reason," he added.

"But what reason?" Star Genesis asked from the side. "I can't imagine one. No matter how much I think about it, it makes no sense. There's no point. You could argue that it's a defensive technique by the plant, but the plant didn't gain anything out of this. It spent a valuable Comprehension Fruit in exchange for what?"

"Safety?" Kyle asked. "The Demon won't return to get more fruits."

"Kyle, you remember the concept of protection money from Earth?" Sebastian asked.

"Ye- oh!" Kyle said. "Yeah, okay, I get it."

"Exactly," Sebastian said. "Beasts are more likely to protect their treasures instead of consuming them. It's an inherent instinct. If they find a renewable source of power, they will nourish and protect it instead of eating it. Beasts are not humans. This entire Cosmos has an obvious bias towards humans. It would not want its living tools to steal valuable resources from its favorite little babies, the humans."

"Yes, yes, I get it," Kyle answered. "But then, why all of this?"

"No idea," Sebastian said. "The only reason I can think of is that the Demons want to reduce their population, but they can just kill and eat each other to keep their population low."

"I also can't think of anything," Star Genesis said. "I think our best course of action is to keep going. If we see more of these events, we might be able to find a reasonable explanation. Speaking of, Sebastian, when will you send your Elemental to the Elemental Dimension?"

"Not yet," Sebastian answered. "We're still too close to the barrier. I want a trillion kilometers between my Elemental and the barrier. If my Elemental dies, I die."

Star Genesis nodded. "Then, we should continue towards the east."

"Sure," Kyle said. "We've been here for a while anyway. Might as well continue."

Kyle ordered the Demon Car to keep going towards the east as Sebastian and Star Genesis entered another heated discussion.

Kyle listened to them, but there wasn't anything he could contribute. He used to be amazing at making Formation Arrays, but Star Genesis had left him in the dust. He couldn't even compare insights with her anymore. At the same time, Sebastian knew a whole lot about Spirits and Elementals, which made sense, considering his Elemental. He had probably learned a ton about Elementals when he had created his.

Kyle knew many things from many different categories, but his two friends were specialists in the relevant topic.

After reporting everything to his friends, Kyle got an answer.

"The base of a Law Well is a dominant Elemental," Sebastian said. "Elementals are attracted by dense Elemental Energies that fit their Affinity. The Demons benefit from the Energy of the Elemental, but the Elemental also benefits from their Energy. By going somewhere else and releasing their Elements, the Demons are making the Elementals' current position unattractive, while making a new position attractive. At the same time, they're also filling the surroundings with their Element, making the opposing dominant Elemental weaker."

"This relocates the Law Well. Even more, by killing and partially consuming other Elementals, their Elemental grows in level. After enough fighting, it will upgrade and advance a level. Yang-Fire might turn into Yin-Fire, but it might even turn into Minor Fire."

"Even more, the further east we go, the higher the average power of Demons gets. If they travel west, they won't find worthy prey, but if they travel east, they will find a lot of battles and food. At the same time, the Law Wells will also become stronger. Have you seen any powerful Demons?" he asked.

"Yes," Kyle said. "Most of the time, the powerful Demons are just passing by. They're probably on their way to the frontlines, but sometimes, I also see Transcending and Primal Demons dumping their newborns somewhere before leaving."

"Makes sense," Sebastian said. "That's probably how they raise their newborn. If we keep going east, we will probably see some changes. At some point, the actual leadership of the Demons has to get involved. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many Demons charging towards Humanity."

"Right now, we're watching preschool. We don't know what school looks like."
