Chapter 569 -33: The Actors Are in Position
In the sky, two meteors of different colors intertwined and collided.
The body of the Mechanical God King was completely covered in crystal, the energy’s radiance forming a pure white meteor. In contrast, the corrupted flesh was entwined with crimson thorns, the red glow transforming it into a dark red meteor as it moved at high speed.
Under their battle, the sky of the goblin world became perilously dangerous.
Every collision between them would create a massive space shattering zone, countless tiny space rifts birthed in the shattered zone, from which waves of space storms emanated.
Frenzied elemental gang winds and invisible space storms even tore apart the cloud layers in the sky, making the goblin world’s sky unprecedentedly clear.
The two World Masters collided once more.
The Mechanical God King’s face was grim, holding a crystal great sword in his hand. At the moment of impact, the great sword in his hand suddenly spun, a sharp radiance emanating from it, cutting through even space in front of the blade.
The thorns on the Flesh God King required no command, forming into a thorn armor on their own. In the thousands of past collisions, this thorn armor had blocked countless attacks.
But this time, the Mechanical God King let out a cold laugh within his heart.
A crisp sound came from the crystal great sword, and the next moment, the crystal great sword shattered abruptly, countless crystal fragments scattered in the air, faintly forming a structure like a cage.
The Flesh God King’s expression tightened, several hundred large mouths suddenly grew on his body.
Hundreds of mouths opened simultaneously, and the lengthy blasphemous prayer was completed in an instant, but it wasn’t fast enough.
In the sky, twelve Void Floating Cannons reappeared. Twelve energy torrents converged into one, instantly engulfing the figure of the Flesh God King.
The Mechanical God King’s expression remained unchanged, and in front of him, an energy shield with a crystal texture suddenly appeared.
The next moment, a blood-red figure burst out from the energy torrent, carrying a world-shattering force, and shattered the energy shield with a punch.
“My brother, did you think such a trick could kill me?”
The flesh on the Flesh God King quivered, and the damage from the energy torrent was healing at an astonishing speed under the assistance of the rules.
But undeniably, his aura had weakened significantly.
The Mechanical God King watched this scene, a trace of anxiety flashing in his heart.
This situation had appeared more than once in the past few days of battle.
His combat power came from an ancient heritage, and the attacks from the ancient heritage did not carry any rules. He didn’t know how to apply rules to the attacks from the ancient heritage.
His strength didn’t come from hard training; the gift from the Complete Master elevated him to a fourth-level being, but couldn’t give him new experience out of thin air. Moreover, since becoming a World Master, he had almost always been in slumber.
In the application of rules, he was not even as proficient as Richard during the Three Rings period.
Of course, the condition of the Flesh God King was not much better than his.
Though not asleep, Abyss Erosion kept him in a state of half-sleep and half-awakening for years.
Although Abyss Erosion brought him a considerable Great Demon heritage, due to his little schemes, all these heritages were support spells, with the application of rules merely skimming the surface.
Both sides of the battle could become “illiterates” among World Masters.
But being too much of an illiterate wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.
The lack of sufficiently lethal skills made their battle prolonged, which was a good thing for both sides of the war.
The goblins needed to perfect their defense line and build crystal stone signal towers. On the abyss side, they could take this time to fully complete the companion race of the Flesh God King.
At a finished fortress on the Great Wall Defense Line, Ulysses found Richard watching the battle.
“Richard, your Great Demon has left the sealing.”
Richard turned abruptly, a hint of surprise on his face.
“Already out? I thought he would wait a bit longer.”
Ulysses landed on Richard’s shoulder and replied, “He should be out now. His state is bad, definitely needs to eat something to replenish his strength. And he certainly needs to make some arrangements.
Abyss Erosion will make the usually slow world will react quickly; if he takes too long to kill that Abyss Corruptor, the world will might spawn another World Master internally.
By that time, he would face more than just a simple native World Master.”
“Hmm? Could there be any changes?”
Ulysses nodded slightly, “Of course, there will be. Abyss invasions are not like your resource plundering or conquests for territory. Abyss invasions turn a world into part of the Abyss, equivalent to slaughter for the world.
So when facing an abyss invasion, the world will strive to spawn World Masters and grant them unprecedented power.
Currently, the abyss hasn’t spread on a large scale, so the world hasn’t reacted yet. But once that Mechanical God King dies, the world consciousness will react and spawn the next World Master.
Of course, our plan will interrupt this catalysis. So you don’t need to worry about not being chosen by the world will.”
Richard nodded, somewhat understanding, this was the first time he heard of such knowledge.
“So, do we just ignore this Great Demon?”
“Almost, we need him as an actor, it’s necessary to get him ‘into the role.'”
“How many goblins will die?”
“I don’t know, it varies from hundreds of thousands to millions. We have too few priests, the speed to prevent the spread of the abyss will be very slow. Why, regret it? Regret that we can act now.”
“Our strength is enough for a hungry Great Demon, and later on, we’ll help that Mechanical God King, that Abyss Infected isn’t impossible to fight either.”
Richard glanced at him: “You really hope I’ll regret it that much?”
“I only hope you won’t go against your true self. I’m counting on you to help me become the Main God.”
Richard shook his head with a smile, continuing to gaze at the distant battlefield, his voice extremely calm.
“I said, this is a necessary evil. I need to become a god, and for this, I can pay a sufficient price. Hundreds of thousands of aliens are far from enough to tilt the balance for me.”
“Gah, now that’s something a Wizard would say,” Ulysses said with some relief, “The way you were before, I even felt like you were an outsider just like me. Wizards are slave masters, how could they cultivate someone like you.”
Richard’s face was strange for a moment, then returned to normal.
Has he finally become a Wizard?
On the thirtieth day after the war started, the blood-flesh Divine King’s companion race finished hatching.
Those who once were tall and slender with beautiful rules, now though their beauty hasn’t diminished, look as sturdy as Ten Cool Nezha. At the moment they hatched, a wave of energy suddenly emanated from the sky’s blood-flesh Divine King.
The Abyss Blessing had finally fully descended.
The Mechanical God King had a grave look, his crystal helmet showing that his opponent, who was once his brother, was now frantically evolving.
But so what about evolution?
Behind the Mechanical God King, a massive Void Floating Cannon appeared once more, the Great Sword in his hand splitting in two, transforming into two weapons resembling Tachi.
He raised his arms high, twelve Void Floating Cannons under the Tachi’s guidance again spouted torrents of energy.
But this time, the energy torrents didn’t directly hit the blood-flesh Divine King, but were guided by the two Tachis, turning into a layer of brilliant radiance covering the Tachi.
“My brother, it’s already over,” the blood-flesh Divine King suddenly spoke.
Different from the previous evil tone, this time, the blood-flesh Divine King’s tone was incredibly sorrowful.
The Mechanical God King suddenly lost focus, in those eyes rendered dark red by abyss power, he saw once again his former brother.
He murmured, “Sisyphus, are you finally disappearing?”
In the next moment, the Mechanical God King fiercely swung the Tachi, the right-handed Tachi raging like a mad dragon, it was his anger. While the left-handed Tachi was lonely like a hidden pool in the deep mountains.
On the dazzling blade light formed by the energy torrent, a layer of red brilliance suddenly dyed it.
At the moment of his brother’s death, the Mechanical God King finally saw through the mystery of the rules.
That was the rule called “Frenzy,” the fundamental reason for energy frenzy in this world.
Under the blessing of the Frenzy rule, wherever the Tachi passed, space shattered, elements frenzied. Had he understood it a minute earlier, the blade light from the two Tachis could have instantly obliterated the blood-flesh Divine King.
But unfortunately, everything had ended.
The frenzied blade light destroyed more than half of the blood-flesh Divine King’s body, but his sturdy right arm had already pierced the Mechanical God King’s chest.
The blood-flesh Divine King drew back his hand, taking out a heart covered in the same gray light. He took a bite, and the blood from the still beating heart splattered.
“Truly a bountiful fruit. My brother, I’ll always remember you.”
The Mechanical God King’s eyes were filled with unwillingness, just a little more and he could have slain this evil demon. But in the next moment, his gaze turned to terror.
“Oh oh oh, what a touching scene.”
A figure emerged from the void, a face filled with emotional expression.
“That performance almost brought me to tears.”
The blood-flesh Divine King turned abruptly, but before he could act, brambles on his body transformed into chains, binding him in place.
“My dear child, don’t think of defying your father. What you’re using are all things I gave you.”
The Great Demon walked to the blood-flesh Divine King’s side, gently stroking his cheek.
“That native really has skill, being able to transform those ugly things into a treasure like you.”
The fire in the blood-flesh Divine King’s eyes seemed ready to burn the demon entirely, a voice filled with venom like evil ghosts from hell squeezed through his teeth.
“Yuri Beelzebub, you deceived me!”
Yuri’s face showed a hint of pride, then stuck out his tongue to lick the blood-flesh Divine King’s cheek.
“Of course I deceived you, otherwise how would I conquer this world? My little cake.”
The blood-flesh Divine King’s expression halted, Yuri leisurely extended his hand, in the center of his sharp claws, a vibrant core was trembling slightly.
He took a bite, the abundant life energy causing him almost to moan.
It’s been too long since he savored such a delicacy.
Finishing the core in a few bites, he then transformed into a titan demon hundreds of meters tall. In the blood-flesh Divine King’s terrified gaze, the sharp fangs crushed him into a puddle of pulp, then swallowed it.
But he failed to notice, this scene of him eating was being transmitted to the entire world through a bizarre machine via crystal stone signals.
