Purcell: Lord of the Void

Chapter 643: Living together

As the saying goes: “It is a great pleasure to have friends coming from afar.”

Since they were guests from other planes, the universe naturally offered its full hospitality. Outside the interstellar isolation zone, a massive buffet was set up, stretching along the barrier, forming a long, winding line, teeming with people. This was a welcome for these otherworldly visitors.

This scene was truly memorable. From the heroes of the temple to the wild monsters on the planet, every elf in the Seer universe had gathered. Such a grand occasion was truly unprecedented, unparalleled in history. It was destined to be recorded in the annals of history.

The Myriad Realms themselves originated from the Main Universe. The two sides were inextricably linked, so naturally there was plenty to discuss, and the atmosphere at the banquet was exceptionally lively.

"I never imagined that my dragon clan would have such a prosperous branch in other planes," Hamo exclaimed, his tone filled with joy. Sitting beside him were the Supreme Divine Dragon, the three dragon giants, and Hakensa. The main leaders of the current dragon clan were all present.

Sitting at the same table with them were a few people from Longyu, who seemed particularly reserved in the face of Hamo's enthusiasm.

Longyu, as the name suggests, is of course related to dragons. It contains a dragon vein, though not as powerful as those in the main universe, it's still of exceptional quality. Because of this, the elves in this plane all carry a certain amount of dragon bloodline.

But unlike the dragons of the main universe, who mostly maintained their primitive, rugged forms, the dragons of Longyu mostly appeared in anthropomorphic forms. Aside from some obvious dragon-like features, they were no different from normal humanoid elves.

"Your Excellency, the Dragon God, you flatter me greatly. We have only been able to achieve this scale thanks to the legacy of our ancestors and our remote location, which has allowed us to escape the ravages of war. You are the true leader, your heart as vast as the ocean, and your benevolence known to the world."

Everyone in Longyu immediately exchanged a wave of business praise. They were in a very happy mood. The merger terms offered by Hamo were quite generous, far exceeding Longyu's expectations.

Not only were they able to relocate to Qinglongtan, the seat of Qinglong, the former guardian of the Kalan Galaxy, but they were also granted considerable autonomy, with even the original organizational structure remaining unchanged. There was no customary interference.

The conditions were so generous that everyone in Longyu was unbelievable. The monarch of Long Empire, Emperor Wu, even took the initiative to propose to marry his little daughter to the other party, otherwise he would feel uneasy, but was rejected by Hamo.

In fact, even within the Dragon Clan, a considerable number of people believed that Hamo's price was too high. A typical example was Hakensa, who stood by with a sullen face throughout.

"Your Majesty, isn't this somewhat inappropriate? Qinglong Pond is rich in spiritual energy, and it also contains all sorts of rare treasures that Senior Qinglong has collected over the years. It is truly one of the most prestigious blessed places in the entire universe.

You just handed it over to them like that? Subordinates…” As an elder of the dragon clan, Tashia reminded her king of the hidden dangers.

But in the face of his concerns, Hammer seemed calm: "That's exactly what I want. If they really have expanded to a level comparable to us in just a few thousand years, it would be a great thing. After all, no matter who they are, whether they like it or not, they will eventually face the void."

"Another such high-sounding talk. When the matter of Nothingness is over, it will be too late to get rid of it. You will be in trouble." Hakensa snorted coldly, looking very disdainful.

"You have a problem with me, why don't you be the Dragon King. I'm going to Seer to find little Seer." Hamo said sincerely, and was about to take out the Crown of the Dragon King and hand it to the other party.

"Fuck, I was wrong, brother. Don't mess with me, just take this thing away." Hakensa was shocked. The Dragon King's crown that he had always dreamed of was now like a hot potato in his eyes.

Hakensa was indeed ambitious and reckless, but that didn't mean he was stupid. Now, if he tried to become the Dragon King, he would be walking into a trap.

On the battlefield, they were subject to the Void Legion's special scrutiny, with pursuit and interception commonplace. Off the battlefield, the heavy workload was overwhelming, and they were the first to shoulder the blame for any minor missteps. Being a pure grudge, it could be said, was useless beyond its status. It was a position of pure grudge, far inferior to the carefree freedom of a deputy position, where safety and security were relatively guaranteed.

……

"It's not convenient for us researchers to drink alcohol, so we'll have tea instead of wine and offer you a glass." The Heavenly Dao Soul Emperor was still very cultured, showing the demeanor of a senior. Clayford and Beliant knew that they couldn't offend the other party, so they took a sip and considered it an explanation.

Looking at this table, it was filled with researchers. Some were drawing blueprints, others were mixing chemicals. The food on the table was intact. The atmosphere here was truly different.

Lolinka is considered an academic star, and most of the residents' minds are on the road of research and pursuit of truth. Although the so-called Industrial Association and the Gathering of Stars are political organizations, they are more like academic gatherings.

Possessing a large number of senior scholars, technicians and valuable research data, the Soul Forgers immediately extended an olive branch to them and promised them sufficient research resources and the most advanced research equipment.

Those who have worked in scientific research and project approval likely don't realize the value of these two promises. Furthermore, Lolinka's own combat power isn't particularly strong; it's not an exaggeration to say he's a weakling. Logistics and scientific research positions are undoubtedly the best fit for them. The two leaders agreed without hesitation.

Of course, adhering to the principle of equality, Lolinka and the Soul Forger were not nominally subordinate, but more like partners.

……

"Alas, although the number of newly joined forces in this merger is huge, the quality is indeed a bit lacking." In the Temple of Heroes, Emperor Tianqi looked down at the lively scene in the lower world with a look of disappointment on his face.

Compared with the main universe, these elves from other realms are generally weaker, and it is rare for them to reach the second-level king.

Expanding the Pokémon pool and adding some mid-range and low-end power would barely be enough, but high-end power was severely scarce. As for peak power, there was none at all. In the current version, the additional role it played was not much more than a drop in the bucket, but at least it was better than nothing.

"Alas, perhaps this is the price of peace. If it weren't for the sword of Damocles of cosmic reincarnation hanging over my head, I would still be living in the teacher's club, waiting to die." Bai Ye shrugged.

Several Temple heroes agreed, arguing that the situation in the Seer universe somewhat resembled the phenomenon of heroes emerging in troubled times. Their rise and fall coincided with several major crises in the Seer universe; the Elf Kings had always been the defenders of order, engaging in endless struggles against various villainous forces; and the core members of the Holy Light Alliance were mostly forged in the great wars of order.

Without external pressure, people would easily become comfortable and lazy. Therefore, the Temple had always carefully maintained the so-called balance of the universe in the past. It wanted to use these controllable local conflicts as a whetstone to gradually sharpen the elves from a piece of stubborn stone into a sharp sword.

The principle behind Leida's reincarnation was similar. However, due to the intervention of the Void, the intensity was too high. Before anyone could even do sit-ups and use the power of love and bond, they were instantly crushed to death by the two gods.

However, the talents and potential of elves do vary greatly. Even in the relatively well-controlled Seer universe, only a few of them have truly become god-level powerhouses over the long years. The difficulty is indeed extraordinary.

"Come to think of it, you really don't plan to join the Temple of Heroes, right? Why don't you reconsider it?" The Holy Light Spirit God persuaded. He was very fond of these two, especially Bai Ye, and always wanted to trick them into joining.

Although judging from the current situation and Bai Ye's character, even if it does not join the Temple, it will still spare no effort for the peace and order of the universe, but just like Puni, it always gives people a weird feeling.

"No, I will not join the Temple of Heroes." Bai Ye's answer was as firm as ever. In his opinion, giving up the Universe Seed and fusing the two universes was already an insult to his teacher, but it was still understandable. If he joined the Temple, it would be a complete betrayal of Leida.
