Cthulhu Gonfalon

Chapter 945: Murder of the God (Part 3)

In the Pantheon Temple, the gods were in a state of shock.

Everyone knew that the God of Light was extremely powerful. However, no one had imagined that his strength would be at this level!

“Iron Mask Ferocious Spirit” Snakenell was also a Great Divine Power and had even come near to being the peak of the Great Divine Powers. However, now, he was unable to stand his ground against the God of Light and was directly murdered.

Although the Pygmy God System was only a mid-level god system, they also had two Divine Powers and two mid-level Divine Powers. They also had tens of weak Divine Powers, low-level Divine Powers as well as a huge group of demigods and Oracles. Although they were hit badly by the giant explosion and suffered many losses, because they were slightly further away from the light ball at the time of the explosion, they had at least half of their manpower left. The Divine Power and two mid-level Divine Powers were basically unharmed and several of the low-level Divine Powers were all alive as well. Those that had collapsed were mostly the less powerful ones such as the weak Divine Powers, demigods and Oracles.

In such a state, the Pygmy God System could still be said to be rather strong as they still had the powers of a mid-level god system.

However, it was just this very system that was completely massacred and destroyed by the God of Light with a single weapon, within the time it took to utter a few short phrases.

The most exaggerated part was that all this happened not long after he had murdered Snakenell.

This meant the God of Light, in an extremely short period of time, managed to kill not just Snakenell but in total, two Divine Powers, two mid-level Divine Powers and more.

Everyone was immediately shocked, as this was a terrifying thought!

All who had entered the battle on the side of the Orcs and had attacked the humans were all pale-faced. Many gods immediately separated themselves from the clones that they had sent to the void where the battle was taking place and physically returned their main body to their God Kingdoms, where they built up their defenses furiously without another word. Others immediately rushed to contact each other and create new alliances, prepared to fight for their lives with the strength of numbers.

Many other gods were left extremely skeptical. No matter how powerful the God of Light was, it was impossible for him to be this strong. If this had all been achieved by the Master of Order, it would be less shocking, and everyone would think that it was perfectly ordinary. However, the God of Light was merely a Divine Power himself. No matter what stage of Divine Power he was at, his seat in the Pantheon Temple had not changed yet. This meant that he definitely had not reached the peak of Divine Power, let alone crossed to the Great Divine Power stage. If that was the case, why was the God of Light so strong now then? What methods had he used, exactly?

In that void that had been enveloped by the giant explosion, the God of Light had on an icy expression on his face. He left the area that was littered with the bodies of the pygmy gods that had killed indifferently and directly went back to the Human God System’s war ship.

“Let’s full out attack the Orc God System. They do not have much strength left,” the God of Light uttered coldly. “This time, we have to destroy the entire race! Let us put an end to this long-term conflict and redeem victory for ourselves!”

“What about the other god system?” the God of Vagrants asked.

“Let’s chase away the Orcs first,” the God of Light replied. “Important matters first.”

The human gods nodded fervently. Previously, when they were still hiding out in the shelter, the God of Light had already explained the most important matters to the human gods. To them, their main priority was ensuring that the God of Light managed to cross over to the great Divine Power stage first.

As long as the God of Light could become a great Divine Power, he could be said to be as powerful and comparable to the Master of Order. At that time, whichever gods had offended or gone against him would be dealt with accordingly.

If the God of Light was unable to become a great Divine Power, that was when they would need to quickly get rid of all their opponents, paving the way for a bright human future.

The gods thus began to take up their respective tasks, regaining contact with their disciples back in the Human Realm. Beams and beams of holy light rose from several of the residual human god temples from the Main Plane, illuminating the skies.

The human Oracles quickly regained the ability to cast spells. With the help of the human gods, the humans’ war strength immediately increased.

The Commonwealth of Gold Coins and the Great Marsh Aboriginal battlegrounds’ situations were reversed in an instant. With the assistance of the human gods on the side of the humans, the Great Marsh Aborigines lost contact with all their participating gods as they had all died in the giant explosion.

Originally, both sides were equal. Now, the situation was reversed, and the humans had an advantage like never before.

Previously, the Great Marsh Aborigines were still killing fearlessly. Now, they were totally lost, and the human gods’ troops, riding on high morale and the help of spells, yelled and charged at the enemy ferociously.

On the other side, in the battle between the Duchy of Thunder and the Great Marsh Aborigines, the situation was no longer dangerous and had become stable for the humans. Although the previous situation had damaged the humans too much and the outcome was still unclear now, the humans definitely did not worry about being totally destroyed now.

The war in the Eagle Kingdom’s east fortress had also settled down. With the help of the human gods on the humans’ side, the Orcs found it hard to destroy the humans’ final fortress. Although the Eagle Kingdom and the Kingdom of Thousands of Springs were both unable to attack at the moment, as long as they could secure their fortress, they would be able to secure the outcome of the war.

Even the Kingdom of Thousands of Springs, which had been badly hit and damage by the allied troops of the fairies and dwarves, could now rest. The king of the royal family gave up the three cities in one breath and led his elite army to make emergency maneuvers. With the blessing of the gods, he managed to narrowly rush out of the grasp of the allied troops and saved his own life. As long as he still had the support of the elite troops, this battle would still be salvageable.

The only place that could not be salvaged was the Duchy of Griffon. It had already sustained extreme damages previously, and the entire country was almost entirely destroyed. There were only a few cities left, which had been protected by the Kingdom of the Blue Moon. The pygmies and other underground races’ allied troops had originally never intended to attack these few remaining cities but had simply continually driven refugees here. At the same time, they used these attacked cities as the foundation to build their own fortress.

Under such a situation, the human’s choice was to ignore other places and directly attack from the Great Wall defense.

Previously, the human troops had retreated from the Great Wall defense due to the lack of the human gods’ aid. Under that situation, they were unable to fight against the Orc army’s attacks, which were enabled by god’s powers. Now, they had enough human gods backing them. On the other hand, the Orcs now had much lesser god power due to the downfall of many of their gods, which disrupted their spell-based attacks.

Since that was the case, the humans definitely would seize the opportunity to gain an advantage.

The result of this battle was that the Orcs were unable to maintain the front line and were forced to retreat. In the end, they retreated to the line of defense built before in an attempt to re-stabilize themselves.

Just as the war became intense in the Human Realm, the human gods and Orcs gods’ ultimate battle also commenced.

Before this ultimate battle, the God of Light had decreed his intentions. In this ultimate confrontation, he did not wish to lose. He would ensure that the Orcs did not just end up defeated, but that none of their gods lived!

He had said these words in the Pantheon Temple previously with a murderous tone.

As the God of Light had spoken those words, he had also scrutinized every god present and cast his cold, unforgiving glance upon all of them. Other than a few minorities such as the God of Justice, Yorgaardman, all the other gods had shivered in fear and awe.

Towards this god who had killed two Divine Powers at one shot, who would or who would choose to be defiant!
