If it were a human, they might face worries about the future, illness, retirement, family, life, and death, but as the parasitic vine of the Tree of Ten Thousand Realms, the Ancient Man Snake does not have these worries, nor does it hesitate, struggle, or feel helpless in making decisions.

Its decision-making is simple: kill what can be killed, nurture what can be nurtured; if disobedient, kill it; if it talks behind its back, kill it too; if killing isn't possible, find help, and if help can't be found, find a way out.

The choices it has to make are very simple, with no two similar choices, often extremely different from each other, so it doesn't have anything like 'choice anxiety syndrome.'

But now, it's in a dilemma.

Anthony was right; if this place is an Endless Cage, once the God Star is detonated, this place turns into a dead zone, and there will be no more increments.

In a closed system without increments, except for those with Incremental Bodies, everything else will die, living or non-living.

But what if this place isn't an Endless Cage?

If this place isn't an Endless Cage, at worst, it just finds another sun, even without the Tree of Ten Thousand Realms to parasitize, its current scale is equivalent to half of the Tree of Ten Thousand Realms, and it would be almost invincible in the Void.

As for King Fei Lie's previous promise to find it another Divine Tree to parasitize, listening is just listening. Don't even mention whether there is another Divine Tree; even if there were, how could the God Star, which doesn't even have time to protect itself, allow it to parasitize?

The God Star and Divine Tree have a symbiotic relationship; the God Star provides the energy needed for the Divine Tree to grow, and the Divine Tree nurtures life, giving more increments back to the God Star.

Without the Divine Tree, the lifetime of the God Star would be much shorter, so how could it allow other things to parasitize?

So King Fei Lie is most likely deceiving it, and even if it were true, the Ancient Man Snake wouldn't dare to attempt it, as it is very vulnerable in the early stages of parasitism.

In other words, detonating the God Star gives it a chance of dying, and not detonating the God Star also gives it a chance of dying, being killed by the joint forces of Star Zombies and King Fei Lie.

It also currently has a chance of being killed by these people in front of it; among these people are two Star Skeletons. Although one of them is transformed and its duration is unknown, two Star Skeletons could definitely kill it.

There's also Star Flame Warriors and Little Firemen deep in the Molten Fire.

At this point, Guman Shi realized what choice it had to make, and it turned to Anthony and asked, "How do you want to cooperate?"

Now in front of it are two choices: one is to cooperate with Ange and these people to protect the God Star, and the other is to cooperate with Star Zombies to detonate the God Star.

Protecting the God Star is easy to accomplish and yields high returns; detonating the God Star is risky and has no rewards, and it doesn't dare take the only reward.

Knowing these two points, it knows who it should cooperate with.

Anthony said, "We'll push out its arm, and then you break its arm. Without the arm, it can't drag the Sea of Silence anymore. After we're done, we'll help you drive out the Star Flame Warriors."

The Ancient Man Snake's heart trembled, "Aren't you together?"

"How could we be? Gebao Maibao, and that cloth-like thing, maybe it's Zi Castle? They're all Star Flame Warriors sent by Gemez Fortress. We are native Star Descendants, so how could we be together?" Anthony quickly denied it.

"If you're not together, why did you join forces to attack me? You even used Star Zombie's arm to shield it from my attack. How can you not be together?" the Ancient Man Snake questioned.

Anthony chuckled, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend. If you're our enemy, then we're friends with her, and it's normal to rescue a friend in trouble."

"But if we're not enemies, then we're not friends with her, and driving her away is not a difficult matter." Anthony said lightly.

The Ancient Man Snake pondered for a moment and said, "You are not Star Descendants born here, or else you would have disintegrated when you called my name previously. Where did you come from?"

Anthony said, "How are we not Star Descendants born here? We are Star Descendants of the Gray Divine Star, so of course, we count as born here."

"You previously besieged the Gray Divine Star, how can you be its Star Descendants?" the Ancient Man Snake questioned.

The Ancient Man Snake's first encounter with Ange was during the pollution of the Gray Divine Star. It was chaotic, and the Ancient Man Snake couldn't see how many there were, but it remembered the Monarch who was still a Primordial Body then.

Now, these Star Descendants around the Monarch claim to be Star Descendants of the Gray Divine Star? Who are they fooling?

"Hehe, because our leader, the Star Progeny Master, imprisoned the Gray Divine Star with the Abyss Bridge. Remember the Abyss Bridge? The Abyss that sucked your consciousness in." Anthony said as he mimed pulling something in front of his chest.

The Ancient Man Snake was so scared it immediately withdrew its consciousness from Anthony's body; it clearly remembered that if it weren't for the Puppet Snake mechanism, it would have been finished then. The Abyss Bridge, which could absorb the consciousness of the God Star, could naturally imprison its consciousness.

But after moving its consciousness away, it suddenly remembered it was now also in Puppet Snake form and need not fear the Abyss Bridge. It moved its consciousness back only to immediately realize Anthony had nothing on him, and he had merely been bluffing.

However, the Ancient Man Snake was indeed frightened, and coupled with the mention of the Abyss Bridge, these people possessed two divine items capable of remotely imprisoning consciousness. It had to be cautious and alert.

"When do we start?" the Ancient Man Snake asked.

Anthony let out a breath and inwardly mused 'what a perfect cover-up'. After agreeing on a time with the Ancient Man Snake, he flew back.

One could not help but say, Anthony's ability to grasp contradictions and reason away problems was a pinnacle in the Void, managing to make up a story like this.

If they severed ties with the Little Angel, they had no irreconcilable conflict with the Ancient Man Snake. Compared to actions like Star Zombies wanting to detonate the God Star, cutting its place of root, their actions at most could be described as adding insult to injury.

Of course, that's after severing ties with the Little Angel. The Little Angel truly wanted to uproot it, but the problem was, it didn't know what relationship Ange had with the Little Angel. In its understanding, the Little Angel was a Star Flame Warrior, part of Gebao Maibao.

Ange knew Gebao had devoured Maibao and knew the Little Angel had seized the Star Dome Seal Cloth, but the Ancient Man Snake didn't know that. It only knew the Little Angel was a Star Flame Warrior with the Star Dome Seal Cloth, just like Gebao Maibao, who both wanted to cut the roots of the Tree of Ten Thousand Realms.

However, upon returning and reporting the matter, it was met with Negris's objection: "Isn't it inappropriate for us to drive the Little Angel away like this? How will we save the Little Tree Man then?"

Anthony shrugged, "We're just driving the Little Angel away, not driving away the Forbidden Little Fireman. However, given its state now, the Little Angel and the Forbidden Little Fireman dare not show themselves, so we might as well try another approach, and ask Your Majesty to dismantle it."

"Makes sense, I knew you'd leave a handle to work with." Negris nodded.

When Ange used a new Molten Fire Avatar to infiltrate the God Star's depths, preparing to push out the Star Zombie's arm, but as soon as it touched the arm, a layer of stardust on the arm abruptly swelled. A ripple moved rapidly from top to bottom, reaching the fist, then suddenly exploded.

On the fist of the Star Arm, a burst of energy erupted instantly, blasting the surrounding Molten Fire along with Ange's avatar into fragments as if they were utterly shattered.
