Ch. 2921..2930
Chapter 2921 We Are All Here
How exciting!
Despite so many fighters rushing toward him, Levi felt nothing but excitement.
“Huh?”
The fighters froze on the spot.
Getting us to gather to kill us all? Who does Levi think he is? What right does he have to make such remarks?
However, the Xyperian fighters did intend to gather in the first place, and even those teams that were presiding over everything from behind had to be present.
On top of that, they were moving quickly. It would only take a few minutes for everyone to arrive.
“What are you doing, Levi? How dare you allow your daughter to soak in the sacred spring! She has dirtied the waters. Get her out immediately!”
“Exactly. The spring water is extremely sacred. Your daughter can’t even take a sip, much less soak in it! She’s polluting the waters. No one is allowed to contaminate the sacred spring!”
The two young fighters who stepped forward first immediately reprimanded him.
In the eyes of the Xyperians, the sacred spring was theirs, and anyone else was not allowed to lay hands on it.
Levi did not reply and merely stared at them.
In the next second, he suddenly vanished.
When he reappeared, he slammed into the two young fighters.
“Ouch!”
“Oof!”
Accompanied by their screams, the men flew backward as if they were kites with a torn string.
Thump! Thump!
As soon as they landed on the ground, they instantly stopped moving.
They had been reduced into a gory mass of bleeding flesh, completely unrecognizable.
Everyone at the scene was in shock.
No one expected Levi to attack them.
But more importantly, he was extremely strong as he easily took the lives of those men.
Upon seeing their comrades die, a dozen young fighters in front of Levi immediately started rebuking him, “How dare you—”
Before one of them could finish his sentence, he felt an oppressive aura crushing down on him and immobilizing him.
Other than his consciousness, he could not move a muscle.
Boom!
A dark shadow covered his entire field of vision before he was sent flying, feeling as though his soul had been ripped from his body.
It was the same for the other young fighters.
They intended to threaten Levi, but he attacked them without hesitation.
Caught off guard, those men were also sent flying.
They did not even manage to see his attack.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Another heap of a dozen mangled bodies joined the others on the ground. It was only then that realization dawned upon the other Xyperian fighters.
“No wonder you manage to find the sacred spring before us. It turns out that you truly have what it takes!”
With those words, everyone realized that Levi was not as weak as they had expected.
On the contrary, he was extremely formidable.
Although there was an element of a sneak attack when he took down those young fighters, it was enough to prove that he was strong.
It seems that we won’t be able to kill him without deploying Deities. The weird thing is that he doesn’t have any spiritual energy hovering around him, which means he hasn’t been exposed to it. He must’ve learned it by himself to become that strong.
However, they found it humiliating that he managed to kill so many in front of everyone.
Everyone was so furious that their veins bulged out of their faces.
“You’re finished, Levi!”
Anyone who dares to kill Xyperia’s prodigies is also obliterating the future of the country. So how can we allow him to live?
They even turned to look at Dr. Erebus and Digital God standing behind. “You’re both the guests of honor because we allowed you to be! Your lives are in our hands, and since you chose to be on his side, you’ll remain here from this day onward!”
Not only did they wish to kill Levi, but Dr. Erebus and Digital God as well.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
A series of footsteps sounded as more and more Xyperian fighters arrived at the scene.
Even the rear team came in the end.
Soon, the entire team from Xyperia who came for training this time gathered together.
“All our men are here. Are you going to kill us all?”
Chapter 2922 Annihilate Them All
The Xyperians gave Levi menacing looks.
Such arrogance!
Xyperia had been extremely arrogant recently and did not see anyone else as their equal, let alone a mere Levi Garrison.
Even if you’re good at fighting, it would be an impossible feat for you to compete against a Deity. I’ve never heard of anyone who could better them without being exposed to spiritual energy. So what if Levi is good at fighting and is as strong as a Deity? We have fifty-five Deities in total when adding up all the factions within the Xyperia team. The other five to six hundred fighters are also extremely talented. Some bore great expectance, while many others have been made Deities through methods provided by Idrae. Hence, it makes no difference if Levi can fight when facing such a strong team as it would be equivalent to courting death.
“Very well. Since you killed more than ten of our men, you and your daughter will die today!”
After those Deities who arrived later were informed of what had happened, they were utterly enraged.
However, Levi merely swept his gaze around to survey the fifty-five Deities and hundreds of fighters in front of him before asking, “Everyone’s here, right?”
“Yes. We’re all here! Why do you ask?” several men inquired.
“Very well then. I shall begin my killing spree. You all shall die!”
Right after Levi made that remark, God Crusher appeared beside him, hovering while making whirring sounds.
“Do you think that a mere sword could take down a Deity? What a joke!” a Deity sneered with disdain.
However, before he could finish laughing, his head was severed from his body with a splatter of blood.
Nobody had expected that to happen.
Did he just kill a Deity just like that?
Before anyone could react, God Crusher continued to pierce through the air at neck-breaking speed.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Splatters of blood whizzed past like the lines of an abstract painting.
However, accompanying them was the separation of heads from bodies as they flew through the air and tumbled onto the ground.
That was the sight of being pierced by God Crusher.
No one could withstand its power, and more accurately, they were not able to grasp its trajectory.
Heads fell before anyone could react.
God Crusher swept through the battlefield, simply unstoppable in its killing spree.
One, two, ten, one hundred….
The numbers of those who had fallen in the Xyperia team kept rising as they died a horrible death.
Despite that, they did not react at all.
Levi was currently on a murderous killing spree while controlling God Crusher.
He did not select his opponents or try to avoid Deities but took down anyone in front of him.
It doesn’t matter if they’re Deities or fighters. My God Crusher will cut down every single one of them. After all, they’re just human lives. They don’t matter to me.
As God Crusher continued to pierce through the air, one of the stronger Deities finally reacted and unleashed all kinds of ultimate techniques. He mobilized the most powerful spiritual energy and transformed it into the strongest shield or ultimate move to block the sword.
Swoosh!
However, no matter how strong a shield or technique was, God Crusher was able to break through them in one move.
Soon after, the head of that Deity fell.
It was unstoppable!
Nothing could stop God Crusher!
All the Deities started to resist, and the other fighters who recovered from their stupor also joined the counterattack.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Despite having different formations, God Crusher continued taking them down.
“Join forces now!”
The group of Deities tried to combine forces to defend themselves against God Crusher, with the top ten Deities at the very front creating a protective barrier.
Swoosh!
However, this time was significantly worse than the last.
God Crusher had pierced through ten Deities in a row, sending them flying into the air.
It was undeniably a mind-blowing sight.
God Crusher continued to take down Deities indiscriminately.
Although they gave their all, it was futile as they could not defend themselves against its power.
Three hundred men fell, four hundred, five hundred…
In the end, no one was left standing.
He had slain every single one of them using God Crusher.
Chapter 2923 Facing A Difficult Problem
Dr. Erebus and Digital God were utterly dumbfounded.
The entire team was completely wiped out.
Fifty-five Deities and more than six hundred fighters, with some of them having the potential to become Deities, all from Xyperia, had been annihilated by Levi.
He even managed to kill them all in a brief span of a minute, leaving none alive.
Be it Deities or others, all he needed was his sword.
Levi’s face remained expressionless as he put God Crusher away, acting as if he had merely done something ordinary.
Contrary to him, Dr. Erebus and Digital God were trembling all over.
Those were fifty-five Deities and hundreds of elite fighters!
Spaunia and Jeradus only had a dozen Deities altogether.
It was equivalent to Levi annihilating five Spaunias at one time.
Even the eleventh-ranked Raysonia only had more than a hundred Deities, and it was as though he had wiped out half of them in one go.
In actuality, Levi had done something extreme that would cause the entire world to be shaken to its very core.
However, he made it seem like a walk in the park with his casual attitude.
This time, they finally understood why he had such blatant disregard for Xyperia.
It’s because of the power he possesses!
Levi walked back to the sacred spring while saying nonchalantly, “They should be carrying treasures and such. We can divide all the loot between us.”
The two immediately understood his words and rushed to search all the bodies, splitting all the treasures between them.
As Xyperia was currently very powerful and wealthy and had access to all kinds of treasures and equipment, they amassed a plentiful harvest.
After they were done looting, Levi cleared his throat lightly, and those overlord-class beasts that had previously run away reappeared behind them.
Although Dr. Erebus and Digital God were initially confused, realization dawned on them the next moment.
The group of beasts seemed to understand Levi’s intentions as they cleared the bodies away, leaving the scene much cleaner than before.
Other than the bloodstains on the ground, there were no bodies left.
The bodies of those beasts, especially the Deity-level ones, were extremely valuable to humans.
Similarly, the bodies of human fighters were also treasures to those creatures.
This could be considered Levi’s gift to them.
Seeing the confusion in Digital God’s eyes, Levi said mildly, “Spiritual energy recovery also increases their intelligence and makes them smarter than some people!”
Dr. Erebus could verify that.
Having studied many creatures, he knew many of them had increased levels of intelligence.
Are there any weird and astonishing things that I haven’t yet seen? This is nothing to me.
Levi went back to the sacred spring and continued to protect Forlevia.
At present, she had passed out from the pain.
However, her condition was stable as the medicinal power of the sacred spring was still detoxifying the toxins.
Although it was progressing slowly, there were visible improvements, and no matter how much was neutralized ultimately, it was still beneficial to her.
Based on the current effectiveness, it could get rid of half of the toxins in Forlevia’s body at the very least.
Dr. Erebus also expected the same.
“This poison is insane! I can’t believe a healing spring like this could only neutralize half of it!” he exclaimed with a sigh.
Levi replied, “But this also shows that it’s effective. If half of the poison can be neutralized, we can still seek other methods or treasures!”
Dr. Erebus nodded vehemently. “That’s true. If we manage to find a magical medicine with effects similar to this sacred spring, Evie would surely recover!”
“Exactly. Seeing the current progress, I’m confident that I can control her condition within a short period at the very least!”
Levi had the utmost confidence that all he had to do next was to continue finding alternate methods.
However, his expression suddenly changed.
The problem lies in the sacred spring itself. I can’t dig it up and take it with me, as it needs to remain here and be continuously nourished by the spiritual ley line below it. If the spring can’t be moved, Evie has to stay here and soak in it all the time. But I have to look for other treasures. What should I do now? Such a complex problem!
Levi then turned to look at Dr. Erebus.
Chapter 2924 Get A Fighter To Protect Her
Levi heaved a sigh when he thought Dr. Erebus couldn’t protect Forlevia.
Hence, he had no option but to protect Forlevia himself.
He could leave for a short time and come back whenever Forlevia was in danger.
Nonetheless, the situation would become unpredictable if he had to leave for a long time or was entangled in some troubles.
As such, Levi thought he had to get some fighters to protect her.
After giving it some thought, a suitable candidate flashed through Levi’s mind.
Dr. Erebus had seemingly read Levi’s mind and asked, “Do you have a suitable candidate?”
“Yes. I have to head out for a while to get them here!” Levi replied.
Suddenly, a faint rustling sound came from the forest at the back, indicating that people were approaching.
The next moment, a group of more than twenty people was seen.
They looked disheveled with bloodstains all over their bodies.
Four of them were Deities, and nine were old masters who almost became Deities. Apart from them, the rest were all young geniuses.
The fighters were considered elites among others from different countries and had just gone through a fierce fight.
Although they were seemingly disheveled, their combat skills elevated after the fight.
The four Deities came from Rodunst, while the young ones were members of the royal families that the country wished to train.
There were initially eight Deities. Nonetheless, four Deities and more than twenty fighters were sacrificed in the battle.
They suffered huge losses but successfully arrived at the sacred spring.
“It’s ours now! Hahaha…” Everyone burst into laughter.
“Even the mighty Xyperia hadn’t arrived yet. I’m sure they are surrounded by the beasts and can’t escape!”
They believed that the sacred spring belonged to them, ignoring Levi and the rest.
Just as they wanted to rush toward the sacred spring, another group of people came out from the bush next to them.
“Hmm? Are they from Loang?”
Those from Rodunst recognized immediately that they were from Loang.
As one of the strongest countries in the world, Loang was almost on par with Rodunst.
Rodunst and Loang ranked seventh and eighth on the list of most powerful countries.
Rumor had it that the two countries had over two hundred Deities each.
It was why the people from the two countries were bold enough to explore the Rank One restricted area.
“You guys are here as well.”
Loang’s team was as strong as Rodunst’s, for they also had four Deities and other fighters of similar levels.
Apparently, Loang’s team also managed to fight its way out and arrived at the sacred spring.
To be exact, Loang and Rodunst found the sacred spring only because they made the right choice.
Not long ago, all countries faced heavy losses due to waves of attacks by the beasts.
Although every country was capable of fighting its way out, choosing the right direction was also crucial.
Most countries chose to retreat to escape from the forest.
Unfortunately, the option proved to be destructive, for they had to confront more and more beasts and dangers along the way. In the end, almost all warriors were annihilated.
Instead, Rodunst and Loang chose to head toward the sacred spring.
It turned out that the most dangerous place had become the safest one.
The closer they were to the sacred spring, the lesser the beasts were.
Since there weren’t any beasts when the fighters arrived at the proximity of the sacred spring, everyone couldn’t help but feel bewildered.
Why is it safe here?
They didn’t expect to make the right call by heading straight to the sacred spring.
However, none of them knew that the beasts dared not come closer due to Levi’s aura near the sacred spring.
After all, the beasts were afraid of Levi and wished to live longer.
Hence, the journey of locating the sacred spring didn’t turn out to be as arduous as they expected.
After exchanging glances, one of the Deities from Rodunst proposed, “Now that all sorts of dangers are lurking around and the beasts might come here anytime… I suggest we should stop fighting and share the sacred spring.”
Chapter 2925 Because They Are The Danger
“We’ll drink to our heart’s content and bring away as much of the remaining as we can! If we start fighting, not only will both sides incur a lot of losses, but we’ll also definitely die when the beasts arrive. What do you think?”
When the Deity from Rodunst said that, a commotion arose amongst the group from Loang.
The Deity leading the Loang troop agreed to the suggestion without any hesitation. “Okay, we’ll share the sacred spring and split the magical herbs in the surroundings equally between us.”
They were not foolish, so they naturally understood what the Deity from Rodunst was implying.
As long as they decided to engage in a battle, it was highly possible that both parties would be eliminated.
It would be impossible for them to secure the sacred spring for themselves.
If they cooperated, it would be a win-win situation.
On top of that, the sacred spring could not be easily finished by only one of them.
“Okay. After we split everything equally, let’s help each other escape. There are too many beasts outside!”
“Sure! We must escape together.”
Both sides agreed to cooperate.
However, Dr. Erebus and Digital God were speechless.
Do they think that we don’t exist? They ignored us directly and even started splitting the sacred spring up. We’re still here! We’re still alive! We can breathe! Can’t they see us? How can they just split it up like that?
Besides, since Forlevia was soaking in the sacred spring, it was actually Levi’s.
It had nothing to do with anyone else—that was the first-come-first-serve rule.
Even the overlord-class beasts acknowledged it.
Thus, it was completely illogical for those two random forces to discuss how to split Levi’s possession.
After finishing their discussion, the Rodunst and Loang troops headed toward the sacred spring, still ignoring Levi and the rest.
In their opinion, Levi was merely lucky enough to arrive there earlier.
Furthermore, the troops thought Levi and his group were so weak and thus were not even worthy enough to be their opponents.
Hence, they ignored them all along, not even sparing them a single glance.
As they approached, a fighter from Rodunst gripped a sword, planning to kill Levi and the rest unhesitatingly.
They would not even give them a chance to speak, planning to kill them directly like a few stray dogs that blocked their road.
Just when the fighter was about to strike, Dr. Erebus suddenly yelled, “I’d advise you to return to wherever you came from! This is not a place that you can come.”
Digital God even deliberately glanced at Levi and concurred, “Yeah! Leave now! I’m genuinely advising you to leave as quickly as possible. Don’t care about the sacred spring! Don’t sacrifice your lives just for it.”
“That’s right! You should run away quickly! Why are you still discussing how to split the sacred spring up? This is not something that you can taint. Leave now, or it’ll be too late!”
Dr. Erebus and Digital God were advising them sincerely.
They did not want the troops to die there.
The troops merely had a few Deities with them, but they were already discussing how to distribute the sacred spring.
The fifty-five Deities from Xyperia all died miserable deaths.
However, those from Rodunst and Loang turned a deaf ear to Dr. Erebus’ and Digital God’s persuasion.
“Are you trying to scare us away? Do you take us for fools? If this place is so dangerous, why aren’t you guys running away?”
“You’re trying to scare us and claim the sacred spring as yours, huh? How ridiculous!”
No one believed Dr. Erebus and Digital God.
They thought the duo was merely scaring them so that they could get the sacred spring all for themselves.
The two of them were at a loss for words.
Why aren’t we running away even though we know it’s dangerous? It’s because we are the danger!
“This is really for your own good. Run away now!” yelled Dr. Erebus resignedly.
The troops from Rodunst and Loang burst into peals of laughter.
Chapter 2926 Be More Careful In Your Next Life
Dr. Erebus raised his voice and shouted, “Right underneath your feet…”
That stunned the troops, who halted in their tracks and stared at him in confusion.
“What’s wrong? What’s underneath our feet?”
Dr. Erebus replied, “Just now, all seven hundred members from Xyperia died on the spot right underneath your feet, including fifty-five Deities!”
Everyone shuddered when they heard his utterance.
It was simply too shocking!
Glancing down subconsciously, they could only see bloodstains and nothing else.
“Continue bullsh*tting! Everyone from Xyperia died underneath our feet?” asked one of them.
Dr. Erebus nodded. “Yes!”
“There were seven hundred Xyperians and more than fifty Deities? Why isn’t there a single corpse? There’s not even a fingertip to be seen!”
“Yeah, we can’t even see a corpse.”
“Besides, Xyperia’s troops were huge. Why aren’t there any traces of a battle?”
“Haha! I didn’t think about that. There are really no signs that a battle took place here! If everyone died, it seems like they just stood there motionlessly and waited to be killed.”
“How is that possible?”
Dr. Erebus was bereft of an explanation when everyone voiced their doubts.
He did not know how to articulate it.
It was because Levi was too terrifying.
He killed everyone with a single blow.
Hence, there were no signs of a battle.
“See, you can’t even continue your lie!”
The troops sneered and marched toward the sacred spring simultaneously.
“Why must you do this? Why are you refusing to listen to my advice? You lots are so obstinate!”
Dr. Erebus was furious.
Meanwhile, Digital God heaved a long sigh. “Well, I hope that you’ll heed other people’s pieces of advice in your next life.”
“Yeah, you can only be more careful in your next life,” Dr. Erebus chimed in.
“Kill them!”
The fighters from Rodunst and Loang had gone into action.
They charged toward the rest murderously, especially at Forelevia, who was soaking in the sacred spring.
Whoosh!
Accompanied by the sharp sound made by a sword that traveled quickly through the air, a massive gust of wind arose.
At that moment, everyone felt an immense pressure weigh down on them.
It felt like their blood had frozen in their veins. Their spiritual energy was sealed, and their minds turned blank.
Gush! Gush! Gush!
The God Crusher flew across the air before doubling back and returning to Levi.
The dozens of people from Rodunst and Loang stood there, completely paralyzed.
A look of disbelief filled their eyes.
Soon, their heads flew into the air.
Streaks of blood gushed up like fountains.
Thud! Thud!
One by one, they fell to the ground.
Looking at the corpses strewn across the floor, Dr. Erebus shook his head.
“See! This is what you get for being stubborn.”
Do you think that this person is a kind man? Be filled with remorse at the afterworld!
Very quickly, the overlord-class beasts appeared again, and the corpses disappeared like before.
“Stay here and guard the place. If any danger arises, look for me. I’ll rush over immediately.”
“Huh? Are we up for the job?”
Dr. Erebus and Digital God were worried.
If there were too many fighters, they could not hold everyone back.
Levi made some arrangements around the sacred spring after leaving the duo with some instructions.
Then, he released a surge of aura.
Following that, tens of thousands of beasts sprinted through Emberfall Rainforest.
All the beasts were rushing over after sensing Levi’s aura.
The overlord-class beasts were the first to arrive. They lay prostrate on the ground, shuddering uncontrollably.
It was apparent how utterly terrified they were of Levi.
All the beasts were gathered around the sacred spring.
Dr. Erebus understood that Levi wanted all the beasts to protect Forlevia.
Indeed, that was what the latter was planning to do.
Based on Levi’s current powers, he just needed to release a bit of his aura for the beasts to know what to do.
Beasts were different from humans.
They were not fickle, manipulative people.
If Levi wanted them to protect Forlevia, they would do as he wished. Nothing else would arise.
Chapter 2927 The Plan To Split Up Erudia
The sacred spring seemed extremely peaceful at the moment.
However, it was surrounded by numerous beasts, including the weak and the powerful.
The sacred spring became impenetrable.
Even Dr. Erebus was shocked.
It would take four to five hundred Deities charging over simultaneously before they could even touch the sacred spring.
Even with that, Levi was still worried and wanted people to guard the place.
Having made all arrangements, he stepped forward and disappeared into thin air.
It was true that he was mighty. However, unexpected events might occur when his attention was spread thin across too many things.
He did not want such unexpected events to happen; he could not afford for that to happen when it came to Forlevia.
Hence, he needed people to guard Forlevia and prevent anything untoward from occurring.
The person he wished to look for was at Erudia, so that was where he headed to.
A while had passed after the spiritual energy revival.
No matter how hard Erudia tried, it could not produce a Deity.
Its overall powers were no match to the others.
In the current environment, even Eragon of The Cardinal Hall could not pose any threats.
They would be massacred if they encountered any fighters.
The fate of Erudia had been predetermined as many people had started to discuss how they should split the country up.
Ichirou’s demise had forcefully averted everyone’s attention, causing them to suppress their desires.
However, everyone was starting to realize that his death was definitely due to the beasts.
It had nothing to do with Erudia.
What Erudia claimed about the Ecclesiastic Order and the Esoteric Guild were merely rumors.
Initially, many people in Erudia believed in the existence of the two entities, but there was no more news about them afterward.
Even the people of Erudia no longer believed it, let alone the rest.
The forces that had their eyes on that country were all tempted to take action.
Although Erudia did not have any Deities, its lands were vast.
After experiencing the spiritual energy revival, those lands would certainly have a lot of magical herbs and resources.
Someone had investigated it before and discovered that Erudia was one of the top three nations with the most spiritual energy crystals.
If that was the case, it surely had a lot of other resources.
Additionally, since Erudia did not have any Deities or fighters, those resources could never be utilized.
It was a golden opportunity to the others.
As long as they entered Erudia, they could only stand to gain.
Furthermore, rumors had it that Xyperia, the most powerful nation, would launch a full-scale attack on Erudia.
The resources that Erudia had were what they needed the most.
For their plan of creating Deities, Idrae needed vast amounts of resources.
There were no limits to desires and plans such as that, so they would not stop at creating a few hundred Deities.
As long as the method worked, they could create tens or hundreds of thousands of Deities.
That would require a significantly large amount of resources, but the resources that Xyperia and its allies had were not enough.
They needed to expand, and Erudia’s resources were the most suitable ones out of all.
In fact, they were so plentiful that they would not need to worry about resources for good.
Hence, splitting Erudia up was the most critical step in Xyperia’s plan.
As a result, the other forces were trying to grab the opportunity and secure a share of Erudia’s resources for themselves when Xyperia attacked Erudia.
Otherwise, they would not have a chance to do so.
Before that, some people had tried to attack Erudia’s previous allies in an attempt to exploit their resources and enslave their people.
Like Erudia, they hid in the Shelters and missed the golden opportunity.
Not only did they not have any Deities, but they ended up in an even worse state than Erudia.
After the outsiders launched their invasion, they looted the entire place.
The allies tried to seek help from Erudia, but it was futile—Erudia could not even protect itself, let alone others.
Hence, Erudia’s allies and neighboring countries were plundered.
Naturally, it was a test to see if Erudia was capable enough to protect them.
The results were apparent—Erudia did not have the capability.
Moreover, the Ecclesiastic Order and the Esoteric Guild were all rumors.
Hence, Keerea had decided to attack Erudia.
Chapter 2928 A Deity From Erudia
Keerea carried out many investigations for a long time before making this decision.
Meanwhile, Raysonia wished to join them.
However, Levi’s previous visit had caused a huge blow to their confidence.
They chose to keep a low profile and did not participate in Keerea’s plans.
Furthermore, they did not want other countries to find out that they had suffered a severe loss.
That was why they sat out of the quest to conquer and divide Erudia.
Raysonia could not risk revealing their trump card. It would doom them.
However, Keerea had been itching to attack for a long time.
They decided to attack after their investigation confirmed Erudia did not have a Deity, and the Ecclesiastic Order and the Esoteric Guild were just myths.
Keerea had benefited from the spiritual energy revival and was now ranked thirteen with nearly a hundred Deities.
Furthermore, the country was famed for its incredible technology. Researchers in Keerea were searching for ways to use technology to create Deities.
For now, it seemed Keerea was as powerful as Raysonia.
Even Levi’s old acquaintance, Sammy Lenheim became a Deity.
She was also one of the most powerful Deities in Keerea.
Ranked among the top five, many considered her to be the Deity among Deities.
Furthermore, Sammy held a prominent position even before she became a Deity.
After the spiritual energy revival, Sammy was admitted into the royal house and became an influential queen with the authority to command Deities and fighters.
The position and power turned her into a different person.
She became a domineering queen.
All she cared about was wars and fighters.
Furthermore, she killed without hesitation and was ruthless.
She had no regard for the life of others and was heartless.
People believed it was the side effect of the radiation of spiritual energy, affecting her humanity.
Some even speculated that power had eroded her heart.
At this moment, she sent out ten Deities and three thousand fighters toward Erudia.
Rumors said that Sammy was the reason Keerea decided to attack in advance.
The queen decided to invade Erudia earlier to protect it so other countries would not dare to think of attacking it.
She planned to make Erudia a subordinate state of Keerea and divide its resources, not harm its people.
However, that was only if no one in Erudia opposed them.
Keerea would not hesitate to kill anyone who dared to rebel.
Otherwise, all Keerea wanted was to obtain Erudia’s resources. They had no plans to harm the people.
Sammy was only offering Erudia such generosity in consideration of Levi.
If other countries were to conquer Erudia, they would not only divide up the resources but massacre its people and force them into slavery.
Erudia would become hell on earth.
Although Keerea’s offer was considered merciful, it would amount to Erudia surrendering itself and allowing Keerea to rule over them.
That was something no one in Erudia could accept.
They would rather fight to the death than let foreign forces conquer them for their resources.
When Keerea’s forces arrived, Daxon and the others had organized themselves and were ready to fight to their deaths.
Even though they knew the risks, they would rather die in battle than let Keerea’s fighters advance into Erudia.
The enemies would have to get through Daxon and his team first.
The Erudia men remained unflinching in the face of death.
The whole world, including Xyperia, was following this battle.
They were curious to see whether Erudia had any powerful fighters.
Furthermore, they wanted to find out whether the two rumored organizations truly existed.
In other words, they wanted Keerea to risk itself first and see whether there was any hidden danger.
Soon, both countries began fighting each other.
It became apparent that Erudia was too weak.
The vast differences in their strength made it impossible for Erudia to stop Keerea’s advancement.
The latter could send any of its Deities to bring down Erudia’s defense causing major casualties.
The Deities and fighters from Keerea were on a completely different level from Daxon and his team and surpassed them in every aspect.
As Keerea’s Deities were ready to massacre the crowd in Erudia, a ray of golden light suddenly appeared.
Erudia’s Deity had finally appeared.
No one expected them to have one.
No one in Erudia knew of his existence either.
Where did this Deity come from? Who is he?
Chapter 2929 Return Of The Cardinal Hall General
Everyone could not resist looking toward that ray of golden light.
They all wanted to know who it was.
The whole world was astounded at this moment.
Erudia has a Deity? Didn’t everyone in Erudia hide from the spiritual energy revival?
Stunned, all eyes were on the figure hovering in the sky.
Erudia’s Deity was none other than Edmund, the Cardinal Hall General!
No one expected him to be Erudia’s Deity.
It turned out that Edmund did not hide in Shelter during the spiritual energy revival.
He had faced it head on.
He wanted to train in that hostile environment and improve the Iron Golem Technique.
Therefore, he received increased power.
However, he faced the spiritual energy revival differently from others.
Other people stood still and let spiritual energy cover them.
On the other hand, Edmund tried his best to achieve self-breakthrough during spiritual energy revival and used the powerful energy to alter his body. Through this, he had reached the limit of self-breakthrough.
Then, he realized he could absorb spiritual energy and convert it within his body before using it to improve the Iron Golem Technique.
That allowed him to bring the technique to a new level.
Level Nine was the highest level available for Iron Golem Technique. This technique would produce nine silhouettes to surround the user. However, Edmund advanced such that these silhouettes had material bodies.
He had been in solitary training for a few days to grow his abilities. Otherwise, he would have arrived at the battle much earlier.
Coincidentally, he had completed his training just in time to save Erudia from the invasion.
Thud, thud, thud…
The Deities released multiple killer attacks against Edmund, but the newly improved Iron Golem Technique blocked them.
Keerea’s Deities were stunned. They looked at the golden light exuding from him in disbelief.
If he were even a little later, many people would have died.
“My son! That’s my son!” Daxon shouted excitedly.
His eyes were full of pride.
He could sense from Edmund’s aura that his son was stronger than any of the Deities from Keerea.
One should know that Deities were also ranked according to their powers.
Edmund was, no doubt, a powerful one.
Other people also shouted excitedly, “Sir is here! He has come to help us!”
How could anyone not be excited to see Erudia’s first Deity?
People even regarded him as their savior.
He arrived at the cusp of doom to save them.
“As long as I am in Erudia, no foreign forces shall breach in!” Edmund declared fiercely.
He glanced at the crowd of fighters from Keerea.
“Kill him!” A few Deities from Keerea exchanged glances before dashing forward to kill Edmund.
The ten Deities knew he was stronger than each one of them.
Therefore, two of their most powerful Deities decided to attack him together.
Both sides fought hard.
However, Keerea’s two Deities were soon losing.
Edmund was too powerful for them.
His Iron Golem Technique astounded everyone. No matter what techniques the duo used, they were useless against Edmund.
How could they stand a chance when none of their attacks could hurt him?
Soon, Edmund began to retaliate. The two Deities from Keerea immediately sustained minor injuries.
The entire Eudia gasped in awe as they watched the battle.
They had a Deity, and he was also stronger than the other Deities here.
Therefore, everyone cheered excitedly.
“Get him!” Two more Deities charged into the battle.
The four Deities had a good chance of defeating Edmund.
It worried the crowd in Erudia.
However, after the battle began, the result was no different from before.
Their attacks were all useless against Edmund, who overpowered them easily.
Soon, the other two Deities were injured too.
“Let’s go!” Two more from Keerea joined the battle.
Now, six Deities attacked Edmund at the same time.
However, as the battle continued, one could see that the six did not pose a threat to him.
“Go! Everyone, attack him at once! Kill him!” In the end, Keerea had no choice but to send out all ten of its Deities.
Chapter 2930 Do You Know Who My Master Is
Ten Deities had joined forces to fight against a single person.
This was the first instance since the spiritual energy revival.
Naturally, no one knew about Levi’s battle.
The entire world was paying attention to this specific battle.
Now that the ten Deities had joined forces, the situation became completely different.
The Cardinal Hall General started to struggle.
Although his Iron Golem Technique was able to deflect the blows and prevent any harm, his attacks were limited when up against ten opponents.
Boom!
After a chaotic battle, his aura soared.
Loud booms echoed across the sky as his body morphed into iron.
Boom! Boom!
His terrifying power surged everywhere, injuring the Deities of Keerea.
Almost all of the ten Deities were wounded, albeit to different extents.
The situation changed instantly.
The Cardinal Hall General alone managed to hold back ten Deities!
This could be considered a miracle to everyone’s astonishment.
This baffled the entire world.
Compared to the Deities, this turn of events shocked everyone even more.
When the other fighters of Keerea saw the situation was now to their disadvantage, they immediately attacked The Cardinal Hall General.
However, he was just like an Iron God—he killed everyone in his path.
The Deities were of no match to him, let alone the others.
In no time, Edmund ravaged the place.
Not only did he keep attacking the Deities, but he also infiltrated the three thousand fighters of Keera and unleashed a massacre.
While it was difficult to kill Deities, it was much easier to kill the others.
“Argh!”
Shrieks of agony rang loudly in the air as people collapsed on the floor.
The number of deaths and casualties soared.
The Deities could not do anything to The Cardinal Hall General, let alone the rest.
He killed whoever came into his way.
It was a tragic scene.
The three thousand fighters were no different from ordinary people in front of The Cardinal Hall General.
He just kept killing.
Although I can’t kill the Deities in a short while, it’s a piece of cake for me to kill everyone else.
Hence, he went on a berserk killing spree.
The troops from Keera were plunged into chaos as their numbers dwindled quickly.
The ten Deities could not even stop him even if they wanted to.
After all, when they tried stopping him a couple of times, their injuries became even more serious.
If this continued, not only would the others die, but they would have to sacrifice their lives too.
Edmund was extremely terrifying!
He killed from daybreak to nightfall, stopping the Keerean troops from advancing.
This was unprecedented!
Soon, the Keereans at the back learned about this, especially Sammy, who was the main person in charge of this plan.
When faced with such a situation, she instructed coldly, “We must not give him any opportunities. If we do, he’ll pose trouble for us in the future. Dispatch forty Deities! I’ll see if he can hold them off.”
Soon, Keerea dispatched another forty Deities. In addition to the ten Deities from before, there were now fifty Deities in total.
That was half of Keerea’s total force.
It was a magnificent scene—they mobilized half of the total force to kill The Cardinal Hall General.
However, looking at the current circumstances, Keerea had no choice but to resort to this.
Soon, the forty Deities arrived and joined forces with the previous ten.
As expected, the situation changed.
According to how strong The Cardinal Hall General was, he could at most fight against twenty-five to thirty Deities.
Although he could defeat them, he would inevitably become seriously injured.
Yet, there were fifty Deities.
Soon, The Cardinal Hall General lost the upper hand.
Boom!
After an intense battle, his Iron Golem Technique was overwhelmed, and he was sent flying backward.
The fifty Deities were simply too powerful.
Even after using all the techniques possible, Edmund still could not resist them.
He was sent flying across the air three consecutive times.
The Cardinal Hall General could not get back up to his feet. Now that his Iron Golem Technique had been broken, he had no other methods.
“Kill him and enter Erudia directly!”
A command came from Keera.
At that moment, The Cardinal Hall General scoffed coldly. “If you can call for support, I can too! Do you know who my master is?”
