399 Our Victory Is Assured
"I have a feeling that the humans will target one of us soon," the Broodmother, Nizana, said. "It seems that their strategy is to fight us one by one, allowing them to gain the advantage in numbers."
"Back then, we didn't really have to care much. The humans were too weak to do anything," the Wolf King, Arym, commented. "It seems that the humans have gotten stronger now. Their growth is faster than what the Master has calculated."
"True." The Wyvern King, Vannaroth, nodded. "According to the Master, the humans will need fifty more years before they gain the power to defeat one of us. It seems that a variable has appeared, ruining Master's calculation."
"This is the result of everyone's arrogance," Death Lord Erasmus stated. "Back then, we even hoped for one of us to get killed so that we could expand their lands. Now that it has come true, things have become more complicated. We can no longer underestimate our enemies like we did in the past."
"That's right." The second Earth Dragon nodded. "As much as I don't want to admit it, Evuvug has played the role of deterrence these past few years. Now that he's gone, the humans will be emboldened by his absence."
"So what do we do now?" the Wolf King asked. "We can no longer afford to remain aloof. If they target us one by one, we will be done for."
"How about we move closer to the center of the Continent?" the Broodmother proposed. "That way, we will be able to cover a shorter distance if we need to reinforce each other when the humans attack."
"What? Are you saying that we need to abandon our current territories and stick together like cowards?" the Centipede King asked. "It seems that the years have only made you weak, Nizana."
"The time has changed, Jalrog," the Broodmother replied. "Zed, Amos, and Evuvug have already fallen. It will be foolish to think that the humans are still the weaklings you once bullied in the past."
All the Kings, with the exception of the Centipede King, agreed with the Earth Dragons' plan of pulling back their forces near the center of the continent.
Thirteen, who had been listening to their conversation from start to finish, smiled faintly. "Five years..." Thirteen muttered. "After five years, a Majin Prince will appear in the Rigel Continent."
This news was incredibly bad news for the people of Pangea.
Right now, they were already having trouble with Rank 8 and Rank 9 Sovereigns.
If a Majin Prince or Princess appears, all of them could kiss Pangea goodbye.
However, instead of being fearful, Thirteen couldn't help but chuckle. This news was truly unexpected.
He already knew that the Dimensional Gates only needed to mature before stronger beings could pass through them.
This was also the reason why he had created Nautilus and Athena.
Five years was more than enough time for him to disrupt the plans of the Jinns, so he decided to do something that would force the three Earth Dragons to take their guarding duty more seriously and leave the remaining Kings to their Fate.
