<h4>Chapter 729: Medium-sized World?</h4>


    “It could be a medium-sized world,” Lorianne suddenlymented after Sein’s interrogation ended.


    Medium-sized worlds were governed by an exceptionallyplete set ofws and capable of spawning Rank Six creatures.


    These worlds were ranked among the more formidable, upying the upper mid-tier of the Astral Realm’s hierarchy.


    After all, there were only a handful ofrge-sized realms and top-tier civilizations within the boundless expanse of the Astral Realm.


    These exceptional civilizations had typically undergone either an exceedingly long period of development or possessed highly refined evolutionary systems.


    Hence, the majority of the Astral Realm was made up of low-level nes and micrones, which, due to their rtively brief periods of development did not require as robust a power system within their civilizations.


    Some low-level realms and micrones with exceptional potential might eventually evolve into medium-sized or even higher-level nes in the future.


    However, unforeseen events could easily disrupt a world’s development. Disasters coulde in the form of devastating meteorite impacts, or invasions from other foreign worlds.


    Internal strife or deviations in the evolutionary system could also lead to the downfall of a once-promising small world.


    Thus, discovering a medium-sized world in the Astral Realm was often a matter of luck.


    Sein and Lorianne’s unexpected encounter with such a realm during an internar war was an urrence of exceedingly low probability.


    Then again, probability was a profound and mysterious thing.


    After all, the Astral Realm’s magnificence was created by countless unlikely events converging together.


    For instance, the birth of a ne with aplete set ofws was an exceedingly rare urrence, which was why such nes were so scarce within the Astral Realm.


    The majority of the Astral Realm was stillposed of demines, broken nes, and void meteorites, among others.


    “A medium-sized world... So, are we still going to proceed with our invasion of this lower-level realm as nned?” Sein asked.


    The appearance of another medium-sized ne’s forces in the Verdant Wilderness World caught even Lorianne off guard.


    If they proceeded as nned, the danger would undoubtedly escte.


    After all, the threat posed by a medium-sized ne far surpassed that of confronting a low-level ne.


    Sein also doubted that the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring would be willing to ally with the Gori Gods from the Wild Gori World and share the spoils of this Verdant Wilderness World.


    More crucially, Lorianne was backed by the formidable Magus Civilization!


    Since when did the Magus Civilization need to share a world with other civilizations?


    Even the Wild Gori World, formidable in the eyes of ordinary low-level and microne creatures, was merely a tempting piece of meat to the mighty Magus Civilization!


    The bones of this sulent feast might be tough to chew but the Magus Civilization would just need to strengthen their teeth and devour it whole.


    “For the final decision, I’ll need to consult with your grandmaster and the others. No, this matter might also need to be escted to the Magus Alliance. A medium-sized world, huh? I wonder if the Wild Gori World has ever engaged with the Magus Alliance,” Lorianne mused.


    As a top-tier civilization, the Magus Civilization’s renown and sphere of influence had long expanded across many star domains.


    All member civilizations within the Magus Alliance knew their leader well.


    Even those world civilizations not yet absorbed into the Magus Alliance and those rtively distant from Magus Civilization had heard of its formidable reputation and were daunted by it.


    Belbacor, the foreign demigod with whom Sein had negotiated a deal over an internarmunication, was one such being aware of the Magus Civilization.


    Fortunately, at that time, Sein was only an initiate. Had Lorianne intervened, Belbacor would have been too intimidated to utter a full sentence.


    Given that a medium-sized ne was likely involved, the next course of action was indeed beyond Sein’s purview.


    Such levels of conflict and pre-conflict strategy were beyond his level to participate.


    He simply needed to adhere to his mentor’s counsel and focus on gathering information before the warmenced.


    Whether the oue was war or peace, Lorianne, Feylis, and the others would decide.


    Now that Sein thought about it, he had engaged in microne and low-level internar wars so far but had yet to participate in a conflict involving a medium-sized realm.


    If the Wild Gori World was truly a medium-sized ne, their power surely extended beyond their homene.


    It was a huge cake!


    High risk indeed promised high rewards!


    If they could conquer the Wild Gori World and seize the resources of a medium-sized ne, the profits—just Lorianne’s share alone—would suffice to finance several low-level internar wars.


    It was no wonder Lorianne was tempted.


    If she were lucky, this war alone could settle all her debts!


    While the final decision by Feylis and the Magus Alliance was still pending, Lorianne was personally inclined toward initiating the war.


    ***


    The Verdant Wilderness World had been tranquil since Sein captured the green-furred gori.


    The conflict between the tworge forests in the north had noticeably diminished, thanks to the mediation efforts of the guardian and many other parties.


    Those green-furred goris had been missing, and Sein had heard no news of further conflicts erupting.


    Yet, beneath the calm surface, all the well-informed individuals in Verdant Wilderness World were aware of the underlying fierce turbulence.


    Invisible skirmishes and conflicts were unfolding in the hidden recesses of this world.


    As an outsider, Sein merely needed to observe calmly from the sidelines.


    "Another one of the node weakeners we set up before had lost response yesterday,” Sein noted.


    Since Sein had ced those node weakeners himself and activated them by channeling his mana, their removal was immediately noticeable on his end.


    “It’s fine. If the other side seeds in invading this low-level ne, we won’t need those node weakeners anymore. The Wild Gori World will help us significantly reduce the strength of this world’sws.


    “The moreplete thews of the Verdant Wilderness World are, the more challenging it will be for the Wild Gori World to mount an attack. Conversely, Verdant Wilderness World can also help us weaken the Wild Gori World even further,” Lorianne exined.


    “Do you remember the Thunderfall World war? It took only two Rank Four creatures to force Thunder, a peak Rank Five knight, into a desperate situation, though that was also partially due to Thunder’s own circumstances,” she added.


    “Verdant Wilderness World is far from defenseless. Never underestimate the power of nts!" Lorianne whispered into Sein’s ear.
