667 Chapter 667: The Matriarch's New Actions, the Purpose of the Hidden Hand!
"Heh, getting more and more proactive."
Sterl watched the reaction of the Will of Hell, a faint smile playing on his lips. In the past, it hadn't been this eager. This was the benefit of strength—no matter how powerful the Will of the World was.
As long as you were strong enough, it would fear you, dread you, and would go to any lengths to try to appease you.
Sterl was sure that the situation in Lava Hell must have frightened the Will of Hell quite a bit. With the enhancement of his Soul Power, the battle prowess he exhibited had clearly transcended some ultimate limit, reaching a height that allowed him to stand on equal footing with the world.
Then, Sterl repeated his old tactics. Using the Authority of Hell he had mastered, he began to comprehend new Law Powers.
Although, from what he could tell, purely enhancing the physical and soul aspects—similar to the path of those mysterious monsters—seemed to hold more potential and stronger powers, he held the belief that having many skills doesn't weigh you down. With the evolution cheat and other powerful opportunities at his disposal, he could easily develop multiple paths simultaneously.
For him, learning a new power didn't take much effort at all.
Before long, he had mastered ten new Laws, each to a perfect degree. Sterl realized that the more Laws he controlled, the stronger his perception and control over the world became.
Moreover, it seemed that he was no longer affected by his environment at all. Regardless of where he was, he could call upon the power of various Laws.
"Perhaps, when I have enough Laws under my command, I will undergo some kind of transformation."
Sterl speculated in his mind. No matter what path one took, the ultimate goal was to make oneself stronger. The saying "No matter how things change, the essence remains the same" captured the essence of this principle.
However, at the same level, if another person had mastered a new path, they would naturally be stronger.
Just as he was about to have the Will of Hell open a spatial portal to move on to the next layer of Hell, a stream of information rapidly flooded into his mind from the Will of Hell.
Upon receiving the message, Sterl was momentarily stunned, a look of shock appearing on his face.
The contents of the message were clear: The Will of Hell had discovered that the power and authority it had been restraining him with had suddenly weakened considerably.
At the same time, it found that from the Thirty-Sixth Layer, the next layer of Hell, all the way to the Seventy-Ninth Layer, the Matriarchs had stopped devouring the world. Instead, they were rapidly transmitting the accumulated energy and souls they had gathered to other places.
Not only that, but the intensity of the invasion had also weakened significantly. However, the invaders beyond the Eighty-First Layer had made no movements at all.
"What does this mean? Are they trying to escape? Then why haven't the Matriarchs beyond the Eighty-First Layer shown any signs of movement? Do they think the Matriarchs beyond that point have the ability to deal with me?"
Sterl quickly analyzed the situation in his mind, feeling somewhat heavy-hearted. If his suspicions were true, things could become quite troublesome.
After all, he was well aware of the kind of power he wielded when enhanced by Soul Power. If the Matriarchs below the Eighty-First Layer had the ability to eliminate him, just how strong must they be?
Thinking this, Sterl paused for a moment before shaking his head.
So, time was of the essence. He had to move faster—faster than those damn insects!
"Then what are you waiting for? Open the portal!"
Sterl growled, and upon hearing this, the Will of Hell was immediately overjoyed. What it feared most was that Sterl would refuse to act or deliberately slow things down. In that case, the Will of Hell would truly have no solution.
Fortunately, the worst didn't happen. Without hesitation, the Will of Hell began to activate the power of Hell and opened a spatial portal to the next layer.
Sterl took a deep breath. He had been considering resting for a while, to take it slow. After all, if those invaders were provoked, they would stop at nothing to destroy him, and that would be a real problem.
But now, he couldn't afford to wait any longer. If he delayed, he wouldn't just lose the meat—he wouldn't even get a sip of the broth.
With that, he stepped forward and walked into the spatial portal. In an instant, the portal helped him arrive at the next layer of Hell.
"Is that Executor-sama? Amazing, we're saved!"
This time, as he arrived, it was directly in the battlefield. Unlike what Sterl had anticipated, there was no sneak attack. All that awaited him was a layer of Hell that was fighting desperately to resist the invading army, along with the deity of that layer.
As soon as Sterl appeared, the aura of the Executor of Hell was unmistakable, immediately drawing the attention of all the gods present.
Although these gods had never personally encountered the Executor of Hell, they were incredibly familiar with the aura and identity of the Executor, so they recognized it instantly.
However, Sterl had no interest in paying attention to these pawns.
But according to the Will of Hell, high-tier divine authority only existed in Hell beneath the Eighty-First Layer, and there was almost always only one per layer. This was why the layers below the Eighty-First could barely resist the invaders.
Moreover, because Hell's overall energy level was far inferior to that of the Main World, even the high-tier divine authority in Hell was weaker than those in the Main World.
How much weaker, Sterl wasn't sure, but they were still high-tier divine authorities, and no matter how weak they were, they couldn't be weak to the point of irrelevance.
Without wasting any more time, Sterl didn't even glance at the Silver-white Torrents.
The reason these Silver-white Torrents were terrifying, aside from their immense vitality and strange gray energy, was that they were endlessly produced. As long as the Matriarch existed, new Silver-white Torrents would keep spawning, joining the main force in a continuous stream.
Thus, once the Matriarch was dealt with, dealing with these creatures would no longer be difficult, especially with a god standing guard.
Furthermore, these silver insects were largely controlled by the Matriarch. Once the Matriarch was dead, and without the Matriarch's will to guide them, they could very well fall into chaos.
And if they couldn't be dealt with? Well, that would certainly mean death. Sterl was not the babysitter of these pawns. Even if he had plans to form a Legion of Hell, his focus would be on elite forces like the Lava Giant race.
With that, Sterl quickly flew toward the Matriarch's location. Within a matter of seconds, he arrived at the opposite side of this layer of Hell and found the Matriarch hiding in a concealed cave.
As expected, just as the Will of Hell had said, the Matriarch was completely absorbed in transmitting the souls and energy she had accumulated. She didn't even acknowledge Sterl's presence.
