"Master Peterson, what exactly do you mean?"
Austin sounded excited when he asked that.
Right now, they were not alone in the Sea of Chaos. People from various cosmos had arrived in order to snatch the chaotic world tree. This scramble for the chaotic world tree was a clear reminder of just how precious this tree could be.
Among those racing to get their hands on it, Austin was also a contender. If he could manage to win, it would be immensely fruitful to him. No wonder he was excited.
"I meant that you should employ a simple distractive strategy. There are hundreds of millions of people in here. Use their presence to attract the attention of the devouring bugs. Then in the chaos that ensues, you can collect the chaotic world tree for yourself,"
Peterson instructed him.
"Yes, you are absolutely right. This is definitely worth a try," Austin murmured.
After years of battle and training, his mind was trained in tactics and he knew what to do as soon as he heard what Peterson said.
"Alright then, now that everyone wants me to do this, then I will do so. I can't just refuse your request. It will only make me feel guilty. Besides, I don't want to see you all get angry with me.
Everyone, come with me!"
Austin loudly announced. He was behaving in a manner as though he had arrived at a very difficult decision after struggling inward for quite a long while.
After telling everyone to follow him, he used his bodily movement skill and headed straight for the spot where the chaotic world tree was hidden.
"Ha ha, we outnumber him a thousand to one easily. He really should be afraid now!"
"Yes. Tell you what, though. This guy is not only powerful, but also knows how to judge the situation and make the right choice. In fact, he is a rare smart genius! I really appreciate him!"
"Cut the crap. Let's follow him and get that tree."
The creatures from all the cosmos were overjoyed when they heard that Austin had arrived at a decision favorable to their agenda. They used their bodily movement skills and followed Austin.
Very soon, the crowd arrived at the end of the continent. The entrance to the hidden space in the void was still there.
However, it was hidden by a very mysterious kind of law power, and therefore, difficult to find.
"There is a hidden space here, and the chaotic world tree is inside it.
Now that I've told you the location, my work is done.
From here on, if you want the chaotic world tree, you have to rely on your own abilities!"
Austin announced loudly as he pointed at the entrance to the hidden space.
As soon as he finished speaking, a few extremely powerful creatures rushed towards where he was pointing as fast as lightning.
In an instant, they had rushed into the hidden space.
"Let's go!"
No one else was willing to fall behind. They all rushed over and tried their best to squeeze in before the other.
Everyone knew that the first person to get closest to the treasure had highest chances of obtaining it. Getting there first might just be the edge they needed.
Therefore, no one was willing to fall behind.
On the contrary, Austin, together with Shepard, merely stood aside and watched the show.
"These guys are digging their own grave. There are a group of life-threatening fiends waiting for them inside!"
Shepard remarked. Even though he was outside, there was a tone of fear in his voice. He still felt a small wave of fear hit him whenever he thought of the power of the devouring bugs.
At that moment, something happened inside all of a sudden.
"Devouring bugs! Oh my God! Run!"
"Help!"
"Run!"
Several miserable screams suddenly arose out of the secret space.
Several creatures who had entered the hidden space frantically crawled out and tried to escape desperately.
Behind them, an overwhelming number of white colored bugs rushed out too, chasing the prey.
This time, the number of devouring bugs that had appeared was much greater than what Austin had seen last time.
They were flying out of the hidden space like a tidal wave and didn't seem to be showing any signs of stopping.
These devouring bugs were dangerous enough to even eat up a space barrier.
These frightening creatures were one of the few in the world whom even the divine gods were unwilling to provoke.
"Let's go!"
Under the control of Austin's mind, both he and Shepard were teleported into the Slave Tower. Then he activated the Reincarnation Token and the entire ensemble left that place in an instant.
By that time, almost all the creatures who had entered the hidden space earlier had rushed out.
"We can't just keep running forever!
There are so many of us right now. Don't be afraid!
