Chapter 2126 - Changes (4) (1/2)
These numbers were great, but to Dyon, it was an incredibly sobering experience. If he gained this many benefits from just 200 universes, how many benefits did the Sprite Alliance gain since they controlled over 8000? What of the Sapientia and the Nephilim?
He couldn't lower his guard at all. In fact, he had to press forward with even more fervor and ambition.
Since the Kong and Grand Templar Sect hadn't been qualified to attend the Federation's Parliament, Dyon's conquering of them flew under the radar.
Dyon secretly used the Jafari Clan treasure to move their territory into his own. This way, he wouldn't have to worry about others claiming their universes with their own points.
Still, to maintain the guise of playing nice, Dyon used his excess points to claim not only the 99 universes, but also the Grand Templar Sect territory which was adjacent to the 99 universes, and Kong Clan territory, which was adjacent to the Grand Templar Sect.
The end result was Dyon having 430 universes under his care. Of course, Dyon was arrogantly counting the 99 universes among this 430 number, but he had only actually conquered 299 of them. This was because Dyon had yet to find an appropriate universe to take as his 300th. He didn't want a universe that could only provide mediocre benefits, or else it would adversely affect the foundation of his Empire.
In the end, Dyon turned his gaze toward Luna's territory. The 18 quadrants she controlled were without a doubt the best choice. They would be able to provide the newborns of the Martial Alliance with deep elemental affinities, after all, it was Sprite territory.
However, Dyon knew he had to be careful. Any dip in Faith, even if it was only a single universe, would be immediately sensed by the Higher Existences of the Sprite Alliance. In addition, they would be able to tell it came from Luna's territory as well.
If he acted brazenly, he wouldn't only put himself in danger, but Luna as well. For now, he could only forget it. 299 universes was already enough for him to not be at a disadvantage in the tower quadrants. Instead, he felt like he should invest more time in solidifying what he already had.
In truth, with his current defenses, he didn't believe any invasion of the Ancient Battlefield would have an easy time, especially considering Dyon had trump cards even within the battlefield itself. But, he had to be cautious… this wasn't a game, there were no second chances.
Though Dyon had undergone vast improvements in just the last few years, he knew well that he was still unable to battle even the weakest Higher Existence, let alone a Higher Existence who chose to use Faith.
This wasn't the time for him to become comfortable… Especially since his end goal wasn't to battle a mere Higher Existence…

Dyon's wives were all shocked by the changes that Mortal Alliance had undergone. Though each of them had spent time with Dyon over the last 12 years, they hadn't travelled back to here.
Everything seemed too perfect.
