Chapter 1597: Myriad Springs World
“Rather than waiting for the Insectoids to return, I think we should try to re-establish contact with the Myriad Springs Worlds. It could boost our combat power in the short term,” Lady Bev said.
Viktor halted mid-stride. He turned back to look at her, clearly surprised. “The Myriad Springs Worlds?”
Myriad Springs World had once been a plane within the Magus Alliance. It was not just any member, but a crucial one.
However, because of ideological differences and a major conflict ten thousand years ago, the Myriad Springs Worlds left the Magus Alliance.
To this day, it remained the only one to have withdrawn from the alliance without suffering retaliation from the Magus Civilization.
To the uninformed, Myriad Springs World appeared overwhelmingly powerful. It was home to multiple overlord-level beings and lay extremely far from the star domains under the Magus Civilization’s control. For them, this explained why Magus World never launched a retaliatory war.
Yet only a handful of powerhouses and those standing at the very peak of the Magus Civilization knew the real reason.
Magus World refrained from retaliation because it owed the Myriad Springs World an immense favor.
That was during a time when Magus World faced an existential crisis and stood on the brink of destruction.
At that time, the Spring Ancestor[1] of Myriad Springs World personally descended to aid the Magus Civilization through its peril.
It was for this very reason that the Spring Ancestor was able to openly confront the Magus Civilization’s leadership and leave in fury without repercussions.
The conflict between Magus World and the Myriad Springs World likely arose from the Spring Ancestor’s disgust with the Magus Civilization’s relentless plundering of weaker planes and its enslavement of allies under a guise of righteousness.
