Chapter 828: Divine Realm Army (2)

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Until the last black beast was slain, they had only lost one or two thousand­man teams.

It was like completing a mission. The commander of the Kingdom of Light’s army, a blazing archangel, coldly surveyed the fervent believers below, his eyes showing no emotional fluctuations as if he were watching animals in a zoo.

But as if remembering something, he spoke slowly in the high language of the divine realm.

“God says, continue to persevere, and darkness will eventually be driven out by our God.”

The believers below fell silent for a moment, then suddenly erupted into loud cheers.

“Hail to the Goddess of Light!”

“Hail to the Goddess of Light!”

The army of the Kingdom of Light did not leave after exterminating the black beasts. Instead, they also swept away the nearby invading demons, staying near the Hogsback Mountains as if waiting for something.

Soon, the sky tore open, and fully armed, majestic armies of the Kingdom of Light leaped out, descending upon the world.

Seeing so many armies of the Kingdom of Light descending, the armies of other churches, kingdoms, and forces instinctively felt something was amiss and became somewhat uneasy.

This unease even surpassed the threat of the demons, and they all instinctively relayed this message to their rear.

However, on the second day of the descent of the Kingdom of Light’s army, several unexpected forces suddenly joined the battlefield, overwhelming the player’s army and the Desert Alliance, causing them to collapse.

These unexpected forces were none other than the armies of the Dark Kingdom belonging to the Dark gods. Apart from the black beasts, there were also many distinctively marked troops from the Dark Kingdom.

The troops of the Demon Lord included the Hell Hatred, the Hell Hound…

The troops of the Dark God included the Dark Warrior, the Dark Titan…

The troops of the Lord of Death included the Death Knight, the Death Priestess…

These extremely terrifying troops from the Dark Kingdom instantly reversed the situation. Not only did they reclaim all the land previously occupied by players, alchemists of the desert, and the Alliance Fleet inch by inch, but they also pushed the front line infinitely closer to the Roni River.

Just when everyone felt despair, several armies from the Orderly Divine Lineage appeared as if descending from the heavens, blocking the fierce attacks of the Dark Kingdom’s armies.

The desert troops of the Desert Divine Lineage, the oasis troops of the Oasis Divine Lineage…

Countless desert dwellers were moved to tears. The desert gods they believed in had finally taken notice of this war-torn land!

As if responding to each other.

In the Western Continent, the mountain troops of the Mountain God. In the Death Swamp, the swamp troops of the Swamp God­

in the Far North, the barbaric troops of the Barbaric Divine Lineage. In the Troll Mountains, the troll troops of the Troll Divine Lineage.

Within just a few days, armies from various divine lineages descended upon the three continents tainted by demons, much like mushrooms sprouting after the rain.

Finally, under countless gazes, on the Northern Continent, which had not been invaded by demons, the army of the Elven Divine Lineage, from the portal that tore open in the sky above the Silvermoon Holy City, lined up and cast shadows over the entire city sky.

At this moment, even the most foolish could sense it.

The world was about to change!

Countless people were curious about what had happened in the unseen void to bring forth so many divine armies, causing a situation unseen for hundreds of thousands of years to reappear.

What did the gods want to do?

After the initial excitement, excitement, and fanaticism, everyone began to feel uneasy.

The last time so many armies from the Kingdom of Light came to the main world was during the God War tens of thousands of years ago.

The New Moon Islands, Crown of the Ocean.

“Nora, what do the dark gods and the orderly gods want by sending so many divine armies to descend?”

“I don’t know either. I’m just a lesser god without even a divine realm.” Nora hurriedly replied, “And when I was in the void, the orderly gods didn’t tell me about such a thing. Something must have happened after I was hunted down!”

Seeing that Nora didn’t seem to be lying, Ji Chen couldn’t help but furrow his brow.

He really didn’t understand the move of the dark gods and the orderly gods. How come they had previously said that the dark gods were besieging various orderly divine kingdoms, and now suddenly they were sending divine armies to the main world?

If the dark gods saw the demons of the main world and realized that they had little hope of winning by themselves, sending black beasts down to assist in turning the tide could still be understood.

But with this appearance and seemingly unwillingness to leave, what exactly did they want to do?

What worried Ji Chen was not only the divine armies themselves but also whether they would affect the preaching of the Oceanic Faith.

Previously, because the gods were difficult to manifest, many vacancies in beliefs were left, allowing the Oceanic Faith to absorb believers to the greatest extent. However, now that the divine armies of various gods had descended, the difficulty of spreading would undoubtedly be many times greater.

Who could ignore these beliefs that had been operating in the main world for hundreds of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions of years and were still able to survive to this day?

Furthermore, what Ji Chen found most tricky was that since the armies of divine lineages such as the Elven Divine Lineage and the Desert Divine Lineage had descended, it seemed only a matter of time before the armies of the Ocean Divine Lineage would also arrive.

They might be the biggest obstacle to the spread of the Oceanic Faith. Who knows if these oceanic gods would welcome his arrival?

The real worry was that within just a few days, the demons had turned into divine armies. When some of the indigenous people tried to make contact with them, they were sternly warned by the divine armies that they would be punished if they approached.

This left them feeling helpless, only able to speculate about their purpose for descending.

Fortunately, these divine armies did not immediately take action against the indigenous people; instead, they each sought out the enemy armies of hostile divine lineages to engage in combat.

The forces of the Light Divine Lineage confronted those of the Dark Divine Lineage, the Hell Divine Lineage, the forces of the Jungle Divine Lineage clashed with those of the Swamp Divine Lineage, and the Elven Divine Lineage fought against the Orc Divine Lineage and the Barbaric Divine Lineage. They were all ancient enemies from hundreds of thousands of years ago, harboring full hatred towards each other.

They seemed to be wary and restrained in their actions.

Initially the focus of attention, the demons now became insignificant entities, neither the orderly nor the dark divine lineages paid much attention to them.

At the same time, the armies of various orderly factions and powers also experienced similar situations to some extent. The control of the battlefield shifted to the divine armies, and whichever side had the stronger and larger divine armies could win the war.

For the side with insufficient divine armies, the day after their defeat, several support armies were called down from the heavens, and they continued to fight against the enemy.

They were relentless.

In this slightly chaotic environment, the Crown of the Ocean, due to its geographical location and the absence of the armies of the Ocean Divine Lineage, remained relatively calm and continued to develop rapidly.

Now, what they needed to guard against were the five dark gods he had previously repelled. They had been stripped of some of their power and naturally harbored deep hatred towards Ji Chen. Who knows, they might send divine armies to attack the Crown of the Ocean at any time.

Ji Chen remained vigilant, guarding the New Moon Islands.

With him there, as long as the gods couldn’t descend in their true forms, no matter how many divine armies came, it would all be in vain.

One month later.

The Divine Power Forest harvested several waves of divine power crystals, successfully converting all the Naga Iron Colossus into divine power units. Coupled with the previously transformed Ocean Crystal Wyverns, the Crown of the Ocean now possessed two divine power armies.

If placed before, these two divine power armies would have been among the top-tier armies in the world. However, after the descent of the divine armies, they seemed somewhat inadequate.

A 6th-tier, 9-star army, no matter how powerful, still had a considerable gap compared to the 7th-tier divine armies.

Aside from the progress of the armies, the heroes of the Crown of the Ocean gradually mastered their own powers, their strength increasing several times over. Now, it was inaccurate to measure their strength purely based on tiers.

According to Ji Chen’s estimation, legendary tier heroes like Alice, Herald, and Benbo, who had also mastered some powers, were much stronger than epic tiers heroes, only slightly weaker than those above the epic level.

Heroes like Kraken, who were already at the epic tier and had control over the authority of decay, had surpassed the epic tier in terms of sheer strength, enough to rival enemies like the Undead Lord.
