Chapter 1131 624: World Madness, New - The Darkness Before Dawn [3/3]
“Bastard! Bastard!”
In its fury, the hellish flames on the Devil Lord’s body burned fiercely.
He wished he could charge forward and slaughter everyone in this city!
However, the ultimate evil aura that made his mind tremble continued to spread in the sky. His rationality and fear prevented him from taking even half a step forward. His anger no longer mattered.
January 3rd and January 4th had passed. The three-day time limit quietly went over.
Twilight City still stood on the vast yellow sand. It was a city as unshakable as a mountain.
Asmodeus’ gaze in Solan City turned cold when he heard the failure of Bardi’s attack.
He knew that the Devil Lord Maman of the third level of the Ninth Hell had disappeared without a trace. His eyes became cloudy.
He took a deep look at the desert church outside the window.
“He’s indeed not simple. He can even enslave an abomination.
“Get Bardi to use their backup forces… I don’t want to hear any more news of failure.”
The calm voice caused the six Devil Overlords in the room to feel great fear. They all bowed with their hands on their chests. They did not dare to raise their heads.
Countless years of interaction had passed, and they knew that their lord? He was already furious.
It was best to complete the mission if he didn’t want to bear the other party’s wrath.
The Ninth Hell had existed for several years, and countless Devil Overlords had changed.
Asmodeus executed most because they did not complete his will.
That was the embodiment of order, the pinnacle of evil. Asmodeus had the prestige of a Creator God in the Ninth Hell, even if he were a Devil Lord that guarded a level of the Ninth Hell. They were just his slaves!
On the 5th of January, the pressure on Twilight City rose again. They wiped 60 legions or more in a day. The desert outside the city wall could barely bury any corpses.
Richard received the report. He pondered for a moment before he issued a new secret order.
He mobilized several Holy Church Empire troops without the knowledge of the outsiders.
In the Ice Empire, the Frostwolf Family, which had already swallowed five territories, stopped expanding and gathered their troops.
Twilight City welcomed new reinforcements on the same day.
The great war took place in the desert of death and ushered in a new slaughter.
The development of this war didn’t follow the usual logic. That evening, a system notification completely changed the current situation.
The world! That agitated him utterly!
[Ding~ Ten players have killed gods and obtained authority. New Era, Chapter 3. The darkness before dawn has officially begun.]
[The old rules have decayed, and the world is about to welcome a new life.]
[Players have come to the “Shining Era” to shoulder their fate. You are all the chosen ones. Your mission here is to start a New Era.]
[The world will have selected the most outstanding 100,000 players.]
[The chosen one will grasp a portion of the authority of their faction every day.]
[You will lose your authority, and the person who killed you will inherit it. However, you will lose the characteristic of automatically perfecting your power.]
[The longer you live, the more complete the authority you will obtain.]
[Whoever holds the most complete authority will be the ruler of a New Era in ten days.]
[Ding~ All those the world has favored will automatically start streaming.]
[Note: The start of a New Era will end if one had killed all 100,000 favored. The gods will regain their authority at the same time. The old world will continue.]
[All players will automatically join the faction–Founder of the New Era. The gods will automatically become members of the conservative one–Protector of the Old Order.]
[Gods have strangled the New Era five hundred thousand years ago. Five hundred thousand years had passed. Can you bear this heavy responsibility?]
The system notification went over, and Richard stimulated the battle situation in Twilight City on the sandbox. He had a complicated expression.
He didn’t expect to open the third chapter at this moment. And it was so heavy!
The system selected 100,000 players. They would gradually take control of a faction as time passed by.
‘How crazy was this?
‘Select 100,000 gods?’
The already chaotic situation developed toward the collapse the moment this chapter appeared.
‘Could the players bear this heavy responsibility?’
The last explanation made him even more solemn.
The opening of the New Era had already failed once 500,000 years ago.
‘Five hundred thousand years ago, wasn’t that the last battle of gods?
‘Was this related to the new era? And the gods had succeeded!
‘It was the glory that lasted for 500,000 years!’
One could imagine how crazy the gods would be when they learned of this news!
They would do everything possible to stop the New Era from coming!
‘One hundred thousand players? Was it enough to kill?’
Richard smelled the thick scent of blood.
