It might not have been particularly important who was being made an example of. It was simply that War God Tempas, the unlucky deity, had a weakness exposed due to David's reckless actions. Consequently, he was set upon by the other gods, like sharks drawn to blood.

And according to the quadratic law of divine rank and divine power, even if Tiamat only reduced Tempas from a mighty divine power of 17 to a peak intermediate divine power of 15, the stripped 64 divine power points were enough to directly create a deity of weak divine power with a divine rank of 8, or 64 deities of the faintest divine power with a divine rank of 1 each.

Interestingly, Rose is at the peak of intermediate divine power with a divine rank of 15. In this gluttonous feast of divvying up the War God, the Spider Goddess only needs to grab 31 divine power points to replace the fallen War God Tempas and become a new deity of mighty divine power.

At that time, Corellon and the Elven pantheon he led would face significant trouble.

It was precisely because he saw this that David was certain that this time the High Elves would definitely not obstruct his plan to pass through their lands to campaign against the Drow.

These arrogant Elves, who are so concerned about saving face, only need a pretense.

Because from the perspective of the interests of the deities, at least at the current stage, they are unified.

Thinking of this, David grew even more determined. He had to make his ancestor Christoph cough up more Gold Coins; otherwise, it would be a complete waste of him having taken the fall for Dragon Sister Tania back in Dewensen!

Meanwhile, Yolanda on the other side had no idea that the young Red Dragon had thoroughly dissected the essence of this divine war in just a moment. Seeing that he completely ignored the reward of 'Demigod,' she felt a mix of envy and an indescribable admiration.

This Succubus Dragonkin pondered for a moment and truly came up with a proposition that might move him:

"Perhaps someone with outstanding talent like you indeed wouldn't care for such things, but I've seen that your territory has attracted quite a few True Dragon followers and kin, yet you just let them grow wildly. I think if this continues, the help they can provide you with in the future will be very limited. Why not bring them along to Dragon Queen's Evil Scale Fortress for this rare opportunity to improve?"

"I can bring kin too?"

Yolanda smiled and replied, "Of course, we are Dragons after all. Isn't it normal to bring our kin to the battlefield? You should know that Evil Scale Fortress is not just the residence of Her Majesty the Dragon Queen but also the gathering place for the spirits of all Chromatic Dragon ancestors, holding knowledge far exceeding that of Dragon heritage."

"That's true..." David mused as a sudden idea struck him.

Yes, the other stuff might not be that useful for me, but these 'old-timers' are treasures.

I'd been regretting that old Christoph was too lazy to show off a few tricks for me to learn from.

If I went and challenged these old-timers with [Jealousy] one by one...

Perfect!

After all, in the Dragon Queen's residence, they wouldn't really let her followers kill me, right?

And although the copied magic and spells would be limited by my own Magic Power, they wouldn't be limited by spell slots! Having a wide array of abilities is always useful at critical moments.

This is the advantage of having many options.

Seeing that David was finally moved, Yolanda continued to strike while the iron was hot, "Moreover, according to the Dragon Queen's oracle, any plane that is conquered belongs solely to oneself, and the battle honors can even be exchanged for the various divine favors promised by the Dragon Queen or for treasures from the Dragon Queen's treasury..."

But the more David listened, the more dumbfounded he became; this sense of déjà vu was exactly like the game reward rules from his past life.

He clapped his claw. No doubt about it; this had to be Pafila's suggestion!

And probably only a newly risen Dragon God would have such influence on Tiamat.

What more was there to say? Just for the treasures of the Chromatic Dragon Queen, I have to take a trip there.

These external objects, although not essential, would undoubtedly enhance my combat power significantly.

For example, the [Stone of Regeneration] from Dragon Mother, or the [Petrification Armor] claw ring Dragon Dad's childhood friend Shalaina gave me.

The Dragon Queen's treasury is sure to be an eye-opener!

Moreover, an era of planar wars, akin to Blue Star's 'Age of Exploration,' is about to begin. Missing the planar colonization bonus period would be a regret worthy of death!

Yes, planes aren't as distant from each other as they seem; they're like islands and continents scattered throughout the Multiverse.

It's just that mortals can't directly perceive the Astral Plane. Only Spellcasters can reach it through Teleportation Gates, or Legendary Ones could link themselves to the Material Plane via astral conduits.

And now, we can travel directly between different planes using precise, real-time coordinates provided by the Chromatic Dragon Queen Tiamat!

The game version... no, the era has indeed changed.

With this in mind, David immediately asked, "Does it include the cost of round-trip teleportation?"

David knew that constructing Teleportation Gates between the main Material Plane and outer planes like Barto Hell was exorbitantly expensive.

Yolanda laughed and shook her head, "Certainly not, but if Your Highness David Uthos intends to go there soon, you can choose to travel with me. However, according to the ancient agreement of Barto Hell, return travel must be via the Teleportation Gate in Acheron, the land of destruction, where fees are charged per head. Based on the coordinates of Elariya, each individual to be teleported will require approximately eight thousand Dewensen Gold Coins."
