Chapter 405
Chapter 406 Their Plan
More than a month had passed since the Decennial Tournament ended. Because of that event, the human race gained a much higher status and finally escaped the label of slavery within the Myriad-Race Alliance.
Humans across the Decennial Universe created the Warrior Alliance and took control of an unclaimed Star Domain. They named it the “Human Star Domain p>
In the past, humans weren’t even allowed to establish their own Star Domain. If they secretly tried, other races would swarm in, raid them, and seize everything.
Now that humans were members of the Myriad-Race Alliance, they were granted ten years of peaceful development.
After that, the War Gods of the alliance invested huge resources to build tens of thousands of continents inside the Human Star Domain. The goal was to help humanity reproduce quickly.
After all, even a War God’s inner world had limits. Humans couldn’t thrive in the Decennial Universe by hiding under protection forever.
Besides, the universe was rich with resources. Aside from god corpses, countless natural treasures were waiting to be taken.
The closest area to the Human Star Domain was called the Gilded River. There, people could search for Epic-tier treasure known as celestial gold sand.
Because of that, many races began competing for control of the Gilded River.
That conflict became the new Divine Battlefield.
Right now, three races had targeted humanity.
The first two were the Tusked Boars and the Star Sharks, both of which had dropped out of the top ten thousand rankings.
The third was the Nightmare race, which had fallen from the top thousand.
However, since the Nightmare race was still part of the Myriad-Race Alliance, they couldn’t openly send Mythic-level forces to attack humans. Instead, they caused trouble indirectly, provoking fights and creating constant pressure,
Humans didn’t yet have the ranking to match their new fame, Getting bullied was expected. They needed more troops on the front lines. Gods were scarce, and manpower was limited. Otherwise, their territory would simply be taken.

That was exactly why Francis contacted Joanna.
Strong opponents required strong fighters.
Joanna was a true powerhouse.
So she agreed without hesitation.
Since the timing for hunting gods was still uncertain, Joanna focused on earning credits at the academy first.
After skipping grades, she reached junior year and also started taking senior-level courses.
Now, she had six contracted companions. One of them, Xavier, could even publish dungeon guides on his own. As a result, Joanna’s points increased rapidly.
In just one month, her credits in three junior-year departments reached 50,000-an almost unbeatable number.
Her senior-year credits were just as impressive.
So she had nothing to worry about this semester.
Haul had already left for his internship. Although he would still earn some credits, he was basically done with campus life. Joanna would clearly become the top student of the senior
year.
In the junior year, second place was contested by George and Dax.
But the most interesting competition was in the sophomore year.
Because the outcome was uncertain, everyone kept discussing it.
[Who’s taking first place in sophomore year-Rory or Trystan p>
[Rory has 28 clones. Do you really think Trystan can compete with that p>
[Trystan is in the strategy group. That’s a serious influence. When top players carry you, your credits grow fast p>
[Don’t forget someone. If Katherine gets a big carry, those two won’t even matter p>
[A carry? Joanna has been super busy lately. Katherine is now the student council vice president and is overloaded with work. Her study progress slowed down, so her points aren’t that high p>
[Katherine is strong, but she focuses on the arena. She’s basically the academy’s divine punishment arrow-the queen of small-scale fights. But dungeon farming? That’s not her style.

She’s also studying Beast-type Dungeons. How can she compete with Rory’s 28 clones p>
Meanwhile, at the Nightstar Group’s security department.
Fern and Vince were talking quietly.
In truth, the security department had barely anything to do lately. People were happy under Joanna’s rule, and they were afraid of causing trouble and getting kicked off the natural planets controlled by the Nightstar Group.
Åžo, crime had almost disappeared.
That made Fern and Vince feel a bit useless.
Luckily, Joanna had given them a task to search for traces of evil gods. The best lead was to investigate Cedric and Bruce.
Of course, other cultists could also be used as clues.
Fern and Vince thought about it carefully. Cedric and Bruce were enemies of their boss. If Joanna wanted them investigated, they had to do the job well and show results.
So they decided to start with those two. Other evil gods could wait.
As for enemies like Morgan, Vincent, and Connor, those guys were far too strong for them, so they were ignored for now.
“Let’s just study those two guys p>
“Easy plan. Put a tracking marker on them, release them, and then kill them again. If they resurrect, we can follow the signal back to the evil god p>
“I heard a rumor. Recently, evil gods have withdrawn from the Space Alliance’s territory. If they aren’t in our dimension, the tracker won’t work. And if we have to enter unknown evil god territory, are we really ready for that p>
“Why worry so much? We just report the coordinates. Nobody said we have to fight them ourselves p>
“Yeah, that works. Let’s do it p>
Soon, the two of them arranged a small operation.
Before long, the crime planet where Cedric and Bruce were hiding was attacked again.
