Chapter 742: Parting on Bad Terms

"Join your camp? I can get your help? Anyone?"

After a moment of silence, [Eye of Insight] spoke again, but his tone was no longer as resolute as before, but turned into a question.

"Of course."

Gray Mist's consciousness moved slightly, as if nodding.

"My enemy and target has always been [Stargazer]. In this level of battle, the help of prophet below level nine can be almost ignored."

After Gray Mist's words fell, the atmosphere in the field gradually changed subtly.

The consciousness of many prophet's "looked at each other" and sensed the feeling of hesitation from other beings.

If it weren't for the fact that the prophet who broke through the ninth level first might block the way for everyone else, they would not have to target Gray Mist at all costs.

At the same time, Gray Mist pointed out a fact that everyone chose to ignore. Their enemy was not only him, but also the Stargazer who was currently recovering from his injuries.

Whether Gray Mist's words that he would definitely break through were true or false, as he said, no one knew when the Stargazer would wake up again.

Rather than pulling each other back at this time, causing the Stargazer to come out of retreat and stand in front of everyone again, it is better to just sit back and watch Gray Mist break through and let him and the Stargazer compete with each other.

Even if he did not choose to join Gray Mist's camp in the end and could not get his help, it would be better than the situation where the Stargazer was the only one in power.

"Then, I choose to join your camp!"

After a moment of silence, [Eye of Insight] suddenly spoke and stood beside Gray Mist without hesitation.

As one of the few prophet closest to the ninth level besides Gray Mist, [Eye of Insight] saw clearly that no matter what choice he made, he would almost certainly face the Stargazer in the future.

Although it was unclear whether the Stargazer would continue to chase after breaking through to the ninth level, no one was willing to put their own life safety on the thoughts of other beings, especially for the strong.

"You will not regret your choice today."

For the choice of the Eye of Insight, Gray Mist nodded calmly. At the same time, a contract with a faint mist of fate floated out from his foggy consciousness.

"Then, leave your fate mark on this contract."

Gray Mist's action calmed down the many prophets who were originally eager to make a move because of the choice of the Eye of Insight. Everyone's eyes were focused on him, ready to wait and see what happened.

"I need to check it first."

Taking the contract, [Eye of Insight] carefully read it over and over again, and carefully checked whether there were any tampering on the sides.

There was nothing wrong with the content of the contract. It was the same as what Gray Mist had just said. They needed to join Gray Mist's camp and fight against the Stargazer with him, and Gray Mist would help three of his own prophets break through the ninth level.

However, in this contract, Gray Mist also made it clear that he would not immediately promise not to interfere with other eighth-level prophets breaking through the ninth level. Instead, he would wait until he officially broke through the ninth level, and then decide whether to stop other prophets from breaking through like the Stargazer based on the information obtained.

"...The content of the contract is that you will help three prophets break through, so how do you determine the candidates for these three people?"

After carefully checking the content of the entire contract, the Eye of Insight spoke with some doubt.

"It's very simple. I will choose to help the three prophets who are most valuable to me. When I break through the ninth level, fate will naturally guide me to make the right choice."

Gray Mist seemed to smile as he said this.

"Of course, even if you get my help, it doesn't mean that you can break through the ninth level instantly.

If the prophet I choose is too weak, causing other prophets who join my camp to break through before him, then he will lose this place."

"Okay, I have no problem."

Nodding, [Eye of Insight] no longer hesitated. From his consciousness body that was like countless diamond crystals gathered, a tiny crystal diamond flew out by itself, landed on the surface of the contract, and turned into a shining emblem.

"...I choose to join too!"

"Me too!"

Seeing that the powerful prophet [Eye of Insight], who was like the backbone of their own side, had directly joined Gray Mist, some other high-level prophets, after quickly analyzing the pros and cons, decisively expressed their willingness to join, not wanting to fall behind others.

Even if there were only three prophets who could get help from Gray Mist in the end, what if it fell on their heads?

Of course, there are also a large number of high-level prophets who are watching coldly.

They believe in one principle: fate will not give people gifts without cost. Joining Gray Mist's camp can certainly gain great benefits, but it must also bear the same consequences.

"So, Jing, what is your choice?"

After many prophets gradually split into two sides, Gray Mist glanced at the people in the field, and finally stopped at Avis who remained in the same place.

"... Thank you for your kindness, Lord Gray Mist, but it is a bit too hasty to make such a major decision immediately. I need to think about it for a while before I can give you an answer."

Seeing that Gray Mist took the initiative to lead the topic to himself, Avis, who was originally low-key and quietly watching in the crowd, could only take the initiative to speak, but his tone was still aristocratic and ambiguous.

Avis had to admit that when he first heard Gray Mist's invitation, he was actually moved.

But after calming down, he gave up the idea again.

Although the enemy of my enemy is my friend, it is hard to say that Gray Mist will not be the next Stargazer after breaking through the ninth level.

Moreover, Avis also has some ideas about his own path to breaking through the ninth level prophet. There is no need to work for Gray Mist and watch him break through the ninth level first.

"I can tell you clearly, Jing. It will not take more than a month for me to completely break through. Before that, my invitation is valid."

Looking at Avis in silence, Gray Mist finally spoke indifferently.

"So, I hope you and others can think clearly. My promise not to interfere with other prophets breaking through the ninth level is only for prophets who join my camp.

If anyone has thought it through during this period and is ready to join my camp, just come back here.

Now, those who have not joined me, please leave by yourself."

As Gray Mist's order to expel guests was issued, the consciousness bodies of the prophets dispersed instantly.

At the last moment of leaving, Avis "looked" at Gray Mist.

Regardless of Gray Mist's real purpose, at least now, it is impossible for many prophets to organize the same offensive again.

From the perspective of simply solving the problem of many prophets joining forces, Gray Mist has done it, and done it very well.

However, is there really no way to stop Gray Mist's breakthrough?

Avis doesn't think so.

What Gray Mist fears most now is actually the existence he has always emphasized - the Stargazer.
