Chapter 030: Laying Low

Yes, in Wang Bo's view, the two fingers that reached in through the cracked sky should belong to the creator god of this world... Ilúvatar!

Apart from this creator god, probably no other deity possessed such power.

Manwë, the god of the atmosphere?

Wang Bo did not doubt this deity's power, but he was confident that, clad in his divine armor and wielding Gungnir, he would be no less than Manwë.

Yet even in that state, Wang Bo's heart raced when he saw the ten-thousand-meter-tall fel giant; Manwë likely lacked the power to stop such a giant.

So the one who acted could only be Ilúvatar, the creator god of this world.

Only he possessed such unimaginable power, able to crush the ten-thousand-meter fel giant as easily as squashing a bug.

Wang Bo could not fathom just how terrifying such power was.

After all, even clad in his divine armor, he was not yet a true god, let alone one who had created gods and the creator god of this world.

Wang Bo was still far too distant from such a realm.

That day, the entire continent of Middle-earth was in turmoil.

After all, the pillar-like fingers and the ten-thousand-meter giant were too terrifying; countless people had witnessed the scene, so Middle-earth would not find peace for weeks, months, or even years to come.

Wang Bo guessed that Sauron had definitely seen it.

For a while, the big boss of Middle-earth would keep his tail between his legs and behave, fearing that Ilúvatar might accidentally crush him.

But Wang Bo suspected that Ilúvatar would never strike at Sauron, since Sauron was also created by this big shot.

As for Wang Bo himself, he had to stay calm and behave.

The previous reckless transmigrator had been crushed, utterly annihilated in body and soul; Wang Bo naturally would not stir up trouble at this critical moment.

Moreover, he had no such intention.

The next day, Wang Bo received a message from his cheat device.

[Host, you can now travel. When do you plan to go?]

Wang Bo said, "So that unlucky bastard who got crushed was indeed a transmigrator."

[What unlucky bastard got crushed?]

"You don't know?" Wang Bo was quite surprised.

[Not really. I just suddenly lost track of the transmigrator and deduced that he either left this world or died. As for what exactly happened in this world, I don't know. Did you see it?]

Wang Bo nodded and described to his cheat the scene of the ten-thousand-meter giant being crushed.

The artifact listened quietly and then sighed.

[It seems transmigrators can't be too reckless either, Host.]

Wang Bo nodded in agreement. Not every transmigrator could do as they pleased. In his view, that transmigrator clearly didn't know how deep the waters of Middle-earth ran, was too reckless, and ended up crushed by the world's creator god.

"By the way, do you know who that transmigrator was?" Wang Bo couldn't help asking.

[I really don't know that. But from your description, he must have come from a very powerful world. Ten thousand meters tall—either a giant or a titan.]

"A titan? Like the titans in Greek mythology?" Wang Bo instinctively thought of Greek myth, but as far as he knew, the titans in Greek mythology didn't seem to have such evil energy.

That fel energy was far too terrifying.

[Not necessarily titans from Greek mythology. Titans exist in many worlds. And you said that titan had powerful fel energy, which reminds me of Sargeras from the Warcraft universe. He's also a titan, and more importantly, he possesses powerful fel energy.]

With the cheat's reminder, Wang Bo suddenly remembered who Sargeras was.

The Dark Titan from the Warcraft universe.

Founder and first leader of the Burning Legion. Once the mightiest warrior of the Pantheon, defender of the Pantheon, the most noble of the gods, and mentor of the Avenger Aggramar.

He once had unwavering faith and noble qualities. Entrusted by the Pantheon, he ventured alone into the depths of the Twisting Nether to hunt demons, vowing to purge all demons from the universe.

Sargeras possessed unparalleled strength and courage in the Pantheon. Wielding his greatsword Gorribal, he crushed and destroyed countless powerful demons; even world-souls corrupted by Old Gods were split in two by his blade.

After witnessing countless demonic atrocities and learning of the Void Lords' terrifying plans, the once noble defender of the Pantheon descended into madness.

After his fall, Sargeras mastered fel energy, using it to easily defeat the Pantheon and lead countless demons in the Burning Crusade.

He once cleaved a corrupted planet in two with a single sword stroke, and later split the plane of Mardum.

His power was unfathomable.

And the titans of the Warcraft universe are all world-souls born from planets.

Though powerful, they were far inferior to Ilúvatar, who could create a universe. Both were single-universe-level deities, but they were as different as heaven and earth.

Of course, all of the above was still just speculation by Wang Bo and his cheat.

After all, whether that giant was actually Sargeras was uncertain. The myriad worlds were too vast, with countless multiverses; giants wielding evil energy were far from limited to Sargeras alone.

"Forget it, let's stop guessing. I'll just travel first," Wang Bo said after some thought.

This surprised the cheat.

[Host, you're quite proactive this time.]

"Yeah, I'll go lie low for a while and come back later."

Ever since witnessing that reckless transmigrator get crushed, Wang Bo had been restless in Middle-earth, so he decided to leave for a time.

After all, with the World Gate in hand, he could freely return to this world. So it wouldn't be too late to come back after he calmed down.

[Alright, shall we travel now?]

"Wait a moment."

Wang Bo still had a lot of business in Middle-earth, so he needed to make arrangements. He first went to Arendelle to say goodbye to Elsa and Anna, then visited Yako's world to bid farewell to Yako.

After that, he picked up Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing and placed them in the Time Villa.

Finally, he said goodbye to the dwarves, telling them he would be away for a while, and that they could freely use the Lonely Mountain and its wealth.

When he returned next time, they should have the other four peerless treasures ready.

After everything was settled, Wang Bo chose to travel.
