Chapter 1212: The Current Status of the Blue Star Ruler! Blood Moon Child! Exclusive Artifact for the Event—The Cosmic Star Map!

Zhou Zhou scanned the entire layout of the Hailong Stellar Region, and finally nodded with satisfaction.

The place he had chosen for his survival and expansion proved to be truly exceptional—better than the original location within the Solar System in terms of resources and every other aspect.

"Prepare the troops," Zhou Zhou said. "Once our initial defenses are set, we will go forth and expand the borders of our 'Human Empire.'"

He deliberately emphasized the four characters: "Human Empire."

"Yes, Your Majesty," Wu Tu instantly understood, bowing respectfully.

Zhou Zhou nodded, then turned to the next piece of intelligence—discovering it to be a report on the current status of the Blue Star Human Clan Ruler.

Now there are over two hundred and sixty million Blue Star Lords on the Blue Star, and nearly all of the survivors hold territories rated at Gold Level or higher.

Most of these Lords serve under various Blue Star Lord Alliances or Lord Kingdoms; only a few remain as solitary, independent Lords who do not pledge allegiance to any dominant power.

Even if such individuals exist—

After today's unification under the Supreme Race Sovereign, such isolated Lords have become exceedingly rare.

Now, every Blue Star Lord effectively falls under the dominion of the Prairial Lord.

The only difference lies in whether or not they possess the blessing of the Zhou Zhou Lord’s innate talent.

Those who joined later—due to not being part of any vassal kingdom or lacking a master-subordinate territorial pact—cannot benefit from the Lord’s innate talent.

Zhou Zhou cannot change this.

After all, they arrived too late.

If they desire the freedom of an independent Lord, then they must bear the consequence of lacking protection from any Lord’s faction.

The Blue Star Lord forcibly pulled here now has no right, nor the ability, to enjoy the master's blessing bestowed upon him.

Zhou Zhou didn't care about such trivialities, but his gaze fell upon the current total number of Blue Star Lords.

"Only twenty-six hundred million Blue Star Lords remain?"

Zhou Zhou sighed.

He remembered when the novice lord trials began—the number of Blue Star Lords had once been a full eighty hundred million.

Unbelievable—after just a few events, over fifty million Blue Star Lords had perished, leaving only twenty-some million left.

This, indeed, is the cruel nature of the Great Lord Rivalry among the Ten Thousand Clans.

Zhou Zhou mused.

Yet, he didn't find this figure surprising at all.

After all, he was a man who had once wiped out an entire clan.

Compared to certain races that have already been extinguished, the Lord of Blue Star has already far surpassed the other race lords in power and influence.

Had it not been for His prior transactions in the Exchange, where vast quantities of goods were purchased to bolster the strength of the Lord of Blue Star, the number of such lords would have been drastically smaller than what it is today.

He continued scanning downward, and unexpectedly came across a report sent by Xue Yue Zi.

The report detailed how Xue Yue Zi discovered that, upon learning of Zhou Zhou’s recent victories, You Zhanda had finally come to realize the vast chasm between his own power and that of the Celestial Sovereign. In an instant, his entire being calmed.

After deep contemplation, You Zhanda ultimately decided to put aside his desire for vengeance and return to the Titan God Realm to deliberate on a long-term strategy.

Upon discovering this, Xue Yue Zi naturally could not let such a true god of the Titan race pass without retribution.

After all, it was the Titan race that caused His downfall.

Though You Zhanda was not the actual murderer, he had assisted the killer in the execution of the former 'Blood Moon God Sovereign'.

Such a blood debt could never be ignored!

Currently, He had not yet recovered to the state of a Supreme God, and thus could not directly confront or harm the Titan God Sovereign who had slain Him.

But taking a little interest from the murderer wouldn't hurt either.

Thus, when Youzhanda was hastily returning to the Titan God Clan, distracted and unaware of his surroundings, Blood Moon suddenly launched a assassination against him!

The battle between them began immediately.

In the end, Blood Moon succeeded in killing Youzhanda, leveraging his initial advantage, combined with the combat experience and divine will of a Supreme God.

Thus, both Youzhanda and his son had perished.

In this report, Blood Moon asked whether or not to publicly reveal that he had killed Youzhanda. If he chose not to reveal it, the Titan God Clan would likely blame Zhou Zhou.

If he did reveal it, the Titan God Clan would at most hold him accountable himself, and would not even extend the blame to his faction—the Blood Moon Clan.

After all, the Blood Moon Clan had already pledged allegiance to Zhou Zhou, and Blood Moon himself had already left the clan before that allegiance was formally established. Anyone with even a passing glance at the situation would see that there was little likelihood of any connection between them. The Titan God Clan would probably not send troops thousands of miles to confront Zhou Zhou.

After reading this report, Zhou Zhou paused for several seconds, and suddenly a new thought formed in his mind.

He immediately contacted Blood Moon and instructed him to do nothing—let the outside world suspect as they please. Even if the blame were truly placed upon him, he would not fear it.

As for the Blood Moon Sovereign, Zhou Zhou advised him to come to the Prajya Empire and serve as a de facto Supreme God devotee.

If he agreed, Zhou Zhou would provide him with every conceivable aid needed to restore his Supreme God power—even bestowing upon him a Supreme God artifact!

After sending these messages, a smile bloomed upon Zhou Zhou’s face.

With the existence of a Supreme God artifact, he was certain the other could not resist such temptation.

Should the other truly accept and come to his Prajya Empire as a de facto Supreme God devotee, Zhou Zhou could then, using vast resources, fully restore him to the rank of a true Supreme God.

That would mean his Prajya Empire would finally possess a genuine Supreme God devotee.

Such a devotee would be far more stable than the War Sovereigns among them.

Once equipped with a full set of Supreme God artifacts, the Blood Moon Sovereign, even at the lower tier of Supreme Gods, would stand no chance against higher-tier Supreme Gods.

Then, the Prajya Empire would truly be secure—no threats in the near future.

After reviewing the remaining intelligence, Zhou Zhou conversed with Wu Tu for a while longer, and then finally sent Wu Tu away.

More than three hours later.

Under the full coordination of Zero, a planetary defense system capable of withstanding a true god's assault has been officially constructed!

All that remains is to await the arrival of the Eternal Carrier, obtain the master god-level materials for planetary defense system construction, and thus elevate Earth's planetary defense system from true god level to master god level.

At this point, Zhou Zhou shows no hesitation in advancing—immediately gathering his entire army and preparing to seize the god-king of Hai Long.

...

Hai Long Stellar Region.

Five Super Nova-class vessels are en route toward Hai Long God-King's domain—the Hai Long Continent.

The Hai Long Continent was created by the Hai Long True God, a continent of mid-thousand world scale.

It is His stronghold, and the Hai Long Empire resides upon this continent.

Inside the lead Super Nova-class vessel...

Inside the command room.

Zhou Zhou gazed at the deep blue star map before him, resembling the vastness of the night sky.

This was the special reward bestowed upon him by the supreme will—granted to him as a token of favor for his participation in the event: the Cosmic Star Map!

[Artifact Name: Cosmic Star Map]

[Artifact Rank: Event-Specific · Special]

[Artifact Law: All factions residing within the event-exclusive cosmos—including but not limited to, the Sovereigns of the Hundred Races, Native Sovereigns, Crimson Powers, Cosmic Organizations, Hidden Realm Factions, and others—will be dynamically marked in real time on the Cosmic Star Map, accessible exclusively to its master for monitoring their current positions.]

[Note: After the event concludes, this Cosmic Star Map will cease its event-specific restrictions and evolve into a standard auxiliary artifact.]

The sole function of this event-exclusive artifact may seem simple, yet its practicality is profound.

For instance, right now—

Zhou Zhou can use the Cosmic Star Map to observe the distribution of forces within the Ha Long Divine Nation, and occasionally glance at the locations of other Sovereigns of the Hundred Races.

After conquering the deity of Hailong, He would turn his attention to the chieftains of the myriad races.

By that time,

possessing the Cosmic Star Map, He would become a hunter with the "full map" activated.

And every chieftain faction of the myriad races—even other factions—would become His prey!
