Chapter 388
Gravis threw the viper back, freeing it from his grasp. The viper felt an avalanche of relief washing over it when that happened. Itwas still alive.
"| said, | won't kill you, but | still need to show you that you shouldn't go against me in the future," Gravis said.CRRRRRR! CRK! Puchi!
A powerful force immobilized the viper's body. Then, it pulled at one of its bones inside its body, tearing it off. After that, identicalto what Gravis had done to Shira, the bone shot out of the viper's body. After leaving its body, the bone only hovered aboveGravis' opened hand.
The viper felt incredible pain and fear. What was this power? How did this beast manage to tear a bone right out of its bodywithout even touching it? Not even their Lord had that ability.
When Shira saw that, she felt some satisfaction. She had gone through the same, and it felt good to her to see someone else gothrough her humiliation and pain.
Gravis just looked at the viper. "What's your name?" he asked."Silva," it said weakly.
"You're male judging by your name, right?" Gravis asked."Yes," Silva said.
"Alright," Gravis commented and slithered back to the Spire. None of the gathered beasts dared to get close to him. His displayhad intimidated them.
“As you all have heard by my discussion with Silva, it makes no difference if we break the laws or not. The Tribes have createdthese laws to keep their forces together. The land beasts don't want to lose their forces to the sea beasts and vice versa."
"They make everyone believe that there is only one enemy. Yet, that is not true. Plenty of Tribes on the so-called same side fightwith each other, maybe even more than with the so-called enemy. When your Tribe gets annihilated by a Tribe from the sameside, do you not consider them as enemies? They are ready to kill you. Therefore, they are your enemy."
“Beasts that think that the only enemy is the other kind are blind to the truth. From the very beginning, everyone is your enemy.There may be unions and alliances, but those exist only because they can't defeat each other. As soon as one member of suchan alliance becomes weaker, they will all pounce on that member. Do not confuse superficial benevolence with peace.”
Most of the beasts were too stupid to realize the meaning behind Gravis' words. These members only followed the words of thepowerful, and Gravis had proven that he was powerful. Therefore, convincing these beasts wasn't hard for Gravis.
The real problem was the semi-smart beasts. They understood some concepts but weren't smart enough to realize that theydidn't know much. These beasts believed themselves to be superior to others since they didn't have the ability to notice their ownflaws.
Yet, these semi-smart beasts were, at least, smart enough to not butt into the conversation. After all, Shira and Silva kept quiet.However, that didn't change their opinion about the other faction. In their eyes, the other faction was beneath them.
"| know that many of you are still against allying with the other kind," Gravis said. "Yet, | see no problem in that. The majordifference between land and sea beasts is simply the fact where they live. That's everything.”
"But after reaching our power, the environment becomes unimportant. We can live and fight wherever we are, and when a beastbecomes a Lord, it becomes completely unimportant where they fight. Water or no water, it makes no difference to Lords."
Gravis chuckled a bit. "But | know that my words alone won't accomplish much. You need to see and feel it for yourself.Therefore, I'm going to end this speech with some announcements."
All beasts paid attention to Gravis.
“First, the Water Makers will carve wide rivers through the territory. This will be the living space for the sea beasts. The WaterMakers already know how the territory should look like and will start shortly."
"Second, Shira will officially be the commander of all sea beasts while Silva will be the commander of all land beasts."
"Third, the pangolin, Morn, will be the Elder. He is very wise and experienced and can give any land beasts guidance when theyrequire it. The octopus, Orthar, will be the Oracle. This is the same position as the Elder, but for sea beasts. Of course, everybeast can visit both the Oracle and the Elder. There's no restriction."
“Fourth, the Spire will remain and will act as a status symbol and command center for the land beasts. Of course, it will alsohouse the Team Leaders, the Elder, and Land Commander."
"Fifth, we will create a deep and powerful Abyss surrounding the Spire. Of course, we will leave bridges for the land beasts toreach the Spire without having to go through the water. The Abyss will be the command center for the sea beasts and will housethe Team Leaders, the Oracle, and Sea Commander."
"Sixth, we will create a hole that starts at the top of the Spire and reaches the bottom of the Abyss to make it easier for the upperechelons of each side to meet. | will live in a separate cave at sea level inside this hole. If something requires both sides todecide on something together, everyone will meet in this cave."
Then, Gravis smirked. "And lastly, seventh, even though you are from the same Tribe, you are allowed to fight to the death withone another. The fights will be duels, and both sides need to be at the same level of power. We will create four arenas with bothland and water in them."
“But keep in mind that you need to request a duel from either the Elder or Oracle. If you attack without consent from any of thosetwo, you will be killed. The consent of your opponent is not required."
"That's all," Gravis said. Then, he lifted his arm to the sky and summoned his Life Ring.Whoosh! SPLASH!
Amassive amalgamation of tentacles, or roots, or something similar fell from the sky, right into the water. The beasts had no ideawhat that was, but it looked incredibly creepy. Was that a beast?
CRRRRR!
Earthquakes appeared as new rivers were being created. This was the second Water Maker, the Common Fungus. It had livedits whole life inside the earth. Therefore, it wasn't weird that it had an affinity for earth.
When Gravis had caught the fungus, he had believed that it would prove itself useful in the Middle World, and it did. It hadhelped in moving a lot of earth into the ocean, and now it helped in terraforming his new territory.
The fungus was a Unity Plant, and therefore, could move a lot more earth around than Spirit Beasts. On top of that, it could workas an effective defense in an emergency in case Gravis was occupied.novelbin
The beasts were astonished by the mystical powers that Gravis had shown. He had ripped a bone out of Silva's body withouttouching him, and now he had summoned a humongous creepy being out of thin air. They had no idea how he did that.
The pangolin was already huge, with his length of about 800 meters, but this thing that Gravis had summoned was just unreal.Its roots or tentacles seemingly stretched into the horizons.
One shouldn't forget that the Fungus could cover an area over 20 kilometers wide. A Spirit Beast was nothing in comparison toits size.
After recovering from the shockbrought on by the fungus, the landbeasts concentrated on th beastsfrom t ‘other tsi He land beastsidoked with hunger, disdain, andbattle intent at the sea beasts. Yet,the sea beasts all charged into thewater. After all, the bodies of theirslain prey were still inside the water.The content is on NovelDrama.Org!Read the latest chapter there!

With the two sides' current relations, making the land beasts dive into the water might intensify the tensions. The land beastswere skeptical of this new arrival. Who was that?

CRRRR!
Part of the river lifted as a lot of corpses were revealed. Something like this wasn't hard for Orthar. After all, he was also a WaterMaker. After that, Orthar climbed out of the water and started climbing the Spire with his incredibly long tentacles.
Surprisingly, he wasn't alone while climbing. He was pulling the corpse of a powerful lion behind him. Apparently, he had alsomanaged to kill a beast. The Abyss wasn't ready yet, so he decided to live on the Spire for the time being.
After around a minute of climbing, he arrived at the Spire's top, where he saw Gravis, Morn, Shira, and Silva all present. All fiveleaders of the Tribe had gathered.
"The loss percentage of the River Tribe will increase sharply with that last rule," Morn, the pangolin, transmitted to everyone.“What is your goal in allowing our Tribe to fight and kill each other, Lord?"
Gravis only smirked.
