C3603 Waiting
Through his research on these creatures, aside from proving that these creatures only possessed the least amount of intelligence and had a stronger physical body compared to ordinary creatures, he also discovered that these creatures did not seem to have any emotions.
These creatures had no grief, no fear, no faith, and all sorts of emotions that humans should have. These emotions could not be felt by these creatures, as if they were all "walking dead", which made them seem more like "ants". Ants had no emotions, no thoughts, only following their instincts and listening to their leaders.
As a result, the four Dao Lords who participated in this war concluded that there must be more intelligent beings with more leaders within this fleet.
If one only looked at these ordinary creatures and used the most objective method of thinking, they would realize that although these creatures had some intelligence, it was absolutely impossible for them to create such a huge fleet.
Thus, the Dao Lords began to search for this leader level creature. However, they were unable to find it.
Based on their guesses, the main fleet that they had destroyed had already been turned into ashes.
At the same time, they also used all kinds of incomplete fragments and the memories of these creatures to recreate their origin and obtained the coordinates to where they came from.
They gave a detailed report of all their deductions to World of Meaning.
First, it acknowledged the contributions made by the four Dao Lords in resisting the beast race. Second, this victory could not be considered a victory, because it was an 'insect extermination' operation, if they wanted this victory to be perfect, they would have to destroy the homeland of the beast race and eliminate the beast race from its source. World of Meaning believed that although this ship fleet was very weak, ridiculously weak, they did indeed possess the least amount of wisdom, which meant that they had the possibility of stepping into the martial way.
If it was in the past, World of Meaning would not care about such a weak world, but now, with various kinds of dangers looming, and with the many different kinds of dangers appearing, World of Meaning would immediately order the destruction of this world, not leaving behind any calamity.
Thus, two of the four of them set out on their journey.
That was 297,000 years ago.
Of the remaining two Dao Lords, one returned to the World of Meaning and the other assumed the position of commander of the border armies.
They had already found that world, and it was not too far from the boundaries of the World of Meaning. It was a small universe, and after their investigation, it proved that the civilization in this universe was indeed at a very low level. This universe's laws were very thin, its vitality was thin, and it did not have any martial arts, but there were some craftsmanship that developed many interesting "creations", mainly some buildings, tools, and machinery.
Furthermore, as the four Dao Lords had guessed, not all living creatures in this small and weak universe were callous, and those with low intelligence indeed possessed a very small number of creatures with relatively high intelligence. However, the so-called higher intelligence was only in comparison to those of the same species, and in reality, their level of intelligence was still very low, so according to the division of World of Meaning, they were still within the range of the "lowest level of intelligence".
After a few more years, the commander received news again that the two Dao Lords had destroyed the weak universe. Because the law of the weak universe was relatively thin, they used the method of modifying the law to create a domino effect, causing the weak universe to gradually collapse and eventually explode.
Having completed their mission, they were about to return.
The commander reported this news to World of Meaning, which was very satisfied, and looked forward to the return of the two Dao Lords.
Since then.
The two Daofathers had no further news.
It had already been hundreds of thousands of years.
As for this battle, because the World of Meaning obtained complete victory, it was also spread out to many places.
The Commander only had one mission left, waiting for the two Dao Lords to return and bring back some things that represented that small and weak universe. After that, he could return to World of Meaning with the two Dao Lords and receive the appropriate rewards to resign this boring commander position.
There hadn't been any news for hundreds of thousands of years. In the beginning, it didn't seem like a big deal to the commander because there wasn't anything worth reporting on during the vast journey.
But based on their calculations, roughly seven thousand years ago, these two Daolords should have returned.
Thus, seven thousand years ago, the Commander had attempted to contact the two Dao Lords, only to discover that the news had sunk like a stone into the ocean and there was no response.
So he continued to wait.
As time passed, the commander's brows furrowed more and more.
He had a bad feeling about this, but he didn't understand why there was such a feeling. It was because the weak universe couldn't possibly have the power to threaten them. In fact, in the commander's eyes, sending two Dao Lords to destroy this weak universe was a waste of resources.
Until two hundred years ago, when those two Dao Lords still had not returned, the commander did not wait any longer and reported this matter to the World of Meaning.
World of Meaning seemed to have no regard for this small matter which they had already determined to be over, so it was fine to inform the commander to continue waiting, perhaps the two dao masters had delayed them for some matters.1
Another two hundred years had passed.
Today.
According to his daily routine, this commander woke up in the morning from his meditation and began to deal with the boring and complicated tasks he had to deal with. It was nothing more than the job of a commander in chief of an alliance.
Adjusting the list of allied forces, rejecting the requests of other forces, and increasing the number of garrison members, that was all.
He had been doing this job for more than two hundred thousand years.
After he decided to return to the World of Meaning, he applied to remove the regular army composition of the border universe and changed it to a small-scale defense army composed of a few apostles and local Divine Kings. Similarly, in the eyes of the commander, it would be a waste of resources for such a safe universe to have a regular army.
Just as the commander was going through the documents, a man named Celestial King of Seven Turbulences walked in and said respectfully, "Sir, the last dead body of the beast has been vaporized."
The Dao Lord looked up at the Divine King and nodded. Celestial King of Seven Turbulences left without saying anything.
"Vapour Phase" was not a foreign word to this Dao Lord.
The vast majority of the creatures in that ridiculously huge fleet had been destroyed, but millions of them had remained to be used for research. After obtaining the exact results, the majority of the creatures used for research had been destroyed, leaving only a few tens of thousands. As time passed, these creatures had all died of old age and became corpses.
Because these creatures only had a lifespan of two to three thousand years, they had actually already died more than two hundred thousand years ago. However, their corpses were still there.
These corpses were money.
In many places of the World of Meaning, there were many collectors who were willing to pay for specimens of the beast race.
However, for some unknown reason, these corpses began to collectively vaporize hundreds of thousands of years ago when the two Dao Lords sent back news that they had already destroyed that small and weak universe.
In the first few years, 99% of the corpses were vaporized, turning into a light origin energy that disappeared.
After that, the commander had ordered the remaining hundreds of corpses to be preserved. However, such preservation had only delayed the vaporization process for a long time. In the years that followed, more and more corpses had been vaporized.
So the commander paid no more attention to the bodies.
Just now, the last corpse was gone.
The commander continued to review the documents.
Half an hour later, his boring work was done.
Yet another Celestial King came running in, this time in a state of panic.
The Daolord looked towards the Godking.
"Sire, the two Dao Lords are back!"
