Chapter 795 Final Battle Part 20
A divine self-destruction would forever be the final technique used by any God in order to transform their own eternal life and endless divine power into an explosion of despair that would drag their enemy to death with them.
A Low God could even kill a more powerful God with this. The importance of self-destructions keeping divine society relatively stable couldn’t be understated.
However, was the current situation really that bad for Sophocles that he would need to go to such an extent?
Things obviously weren’t that bad for him at all. The Chaos Abyss army was still endlessly arriving through the Dinsional Door. The Chaos Main Gods weren’t at an overwhelming disadvantage yet. Nothing would have ended quickly at that point... and even if the Chaos Faction lost here, wouldn’t it have been fine for Sophocles to run away? Would he really be stupid enough to die for the sake of the Chaos Faction?
Just how much had he invested into this battle? Why did he sacrifice everything he had? Why did he drag other Main Gods into dying together with him?
I couldn’t understand, but I knew that the person in front of could definitely give an explanation.
“Karwenz! Just what have you done!?”
To personally, the unknown was frustrating, and I especially hated the feeling of having soone else make dance to their whims.
However, I was certain that this person would give the answer.
The battlefield currently seed like an ancient battlefield right out of a myth. There was no apparent difference between the sky and the earth. The blue sky and white clouds had been replaced by the universe and the stars. All the basic dinsional laws had been completely shattered.
I had never witnessed such a frightening scene before. Countless dinsional cracks had been torn open. Vision, sound, and even feelings were all distorted. Ti and space had obviously beco unbalanced here. A distance that was clearly only a few ters away seed as if it was more than 1000 kiloters away.
No, it was indeed more than 1000 kiloters away. Taking one step would result in your next step landing at soplace unknown. Since the basic dinsional laws of space had been completely distorted here, nothing was stable and every step would represent countless possibilities. On such a battlefield, soone of Gold rank wouldn’t even have the right to beco cannon fodder.
“Answer ! Karwenz!”
The most obvious existence on this chaotic battlefield was probably the gigantic God before .
“Hey, isn’t this my older brother? As expected of a cockroach like you. Even this explosion wasn’t able to kill you.”
Karwenz still had that familiar figure, appearance, and casual attitude. I never expected that I would be so angry to see my own face.
I took one step forward, but then suddenly appeared at a location 300 ters behind . It would seem that it was impossible for to reach Karwenz since the dinsional laws weren’t stable here yet.
I looked all around and saw endless destruction on the battlefield. However, there were still survivors.
The Cloud Tower, which was emitting thick plus of smoke, had crash-landed onto the ground. It seed like half of it was destroyed. Still, no matter how severe the damage, the very fact that the Cloud Tower hadn’t been completely destroyed into smithereens of dust ant that the mages had managed to survive.
Also, Titan, who was the most powerful Main God level existence on our side, wasn’t near the core of the explosion. He was sufficiently far away to react in ti to defend himself. Titan was currently kneeling on one knee while viciously glaring at Karwenz.
Titan’s opponent Donatis was barely holding on, but Donatis had also managed to survive the explosion.
However, things weren’t so good for the other battle between Main Gods.
I recalled that right when Sophocles self-destructed, he had used his special ability to split himself into two bodies. His Demon Main God half had dashed towards and targeted , Kalumandas, and the God of Holy Light’s incarnation, trying to inflict maximum damage with the countering elent of Chaos.
Sophocles’ Order God half, the God of Evolution, had dashed towards Heimor and Barbarot’s battle...
Only shredded flesh and Chaos energy remained where Heimor and Barbarot had been battling. Incredibly valuable divinity, God Equipnt shards, a Demon Main God heart, and so on were all casually strewn around as if they were garbage. I could sense Heimor’s power was present, but not his existence. It seed that both Heimor and Barbarot had perished.
Kalumandas, the God of Wisdom. Barbarot, the Main God Devourer. Heimor, the Devil Lord of Despair. If I also included the God of Holy Light’s incarnation, Sophocles had instantly managed to kill four Main God level existences with his self-destruction.
These Main Gods weren’t simply individuals. Order Gods would be the amalgamations of various dinsional laws. An Order Main God would be the peak existence of an entire God Faction and system. They were capable of changing dinsional laws with a single statent. They would be the controllers of certain dinsional laws.
anwhile, the Chaos Main Gods were the products of chaotic evolution. They would have devoured countless souls during their growth. Every Chaos Main God’s death would cause countless devoured souls to return to the Cycle of Reincarnation, reaching the point where it would even affect the River Styx’s depth.
Right here, in just a short instant, six Main Gods (Sophocles counted as being both an Order and Chaos Main God with his two bodies) had perished simultaneously. This was just like forcefully removing a large chunk of the ocean suddenly. There would be an enormous hole left behind. Plus, the items left behind by the Main Gods’ deaths also contributed to the extre instability in this area.
I learned plenty simply by looking around . By now, I could pretty much guess at Sophocles and Karwenz’s plan, but...
“Bro, since you’ve already guessed it, why bother asking? Wasting words isn’t your style at all.”
The Abyss Prince hadn’t co here simply to observe the situation. Countless small demons flew out from behind him. They were carrying heavy obsidian as they descended and seed to start constructing sothing.
I fell silent. Indeed, I had guessed Karwenz’s objective here, but I hadn’t expected that it would be on such a grand scale.
“...For the sake of opening the door to the dinsional barrier? Just for the sake of opening that door?”
However, I was really surprised when Karwenz directly shook his head.
“No, there’s actually no door at all. The two old hags (Creator Goddesses of Order and Chaos) went to an extre and sealed off the entire Eich universe, making the Eich universe an enclosed room with no doors or windows whatsoever. In such a scenario, it would be impossible to open the door to the dinsional barrier even with the key, because there was no lock or door.”
“...That’s why you must create a door with an explosion. The Main Gods were the necessary sacrifices for this?”
Although I was asking a question, my tone was certain. This was the only possibility that would offer enough potential benefits for Sophocles to be willing to pay such a trendous price.
Karwenz shrugged and smiled as he showed three fingers.
“Three Main Gods was the minimum that I required. However, Afu completed his mission quite wonderfully by giving a sacrifice of six Main Gods. This area has already begun initialization. This place shall beco the door leading to new universes.”
Karwenz wasn’t even emotional as he simply stated the facts. However, such abnormal calmness obviously wasn’t normal for Karwenz’s personality, so I could faintly tell just how resolved he was.
“Ha, an initialized world won’t be analyzed so quickly. Stop thinking so much about it. Relax, I’m not interested in those parasites, either.”
Karwenz then glanced at the outskirts of the battlefield, where the Cloud Tower was slowly rising up into the sky again. It seed that he had seen through my plan of stalling him so that the survivors could safely retreat.
“Parasites?”
“Isn’t that the case? Those guys are clearly humans as well, but they think that it’s only natural for them to receive venerated treatnt from ordinary humans just because they’ve learned so minor inklings about magic and feel that they control the secrets of the universe. They think that they’re much better than humans, and don’t view themselves as humans anymore. They only want to enjoy the benefits, but never work to do anything for humans. Isn’t that what a parasite is? Haha, these are the exact words that you previously told .”
I instantly fell silent after hearing this. From my standpoint back then, the Mage Country clearly possessed the strongest power in this world, yet never tried to do anything to change the world for the better. My extre views and attitude back then ant that it was quite normal for to say sothing like this back then... But I would need to be careful as it would be quite troubleso if the mages held a grudge over hearing say this.
“Ahem, we all heard this already.”
Harloys sent that as a secret ntal ssage while the light of teleportation magic illuminated in the next instant. It seed that the Cloud Tower had already finished analyzing the dinsional space here.
I glanced at Karwenz and asked another question in the end.
“...Why are you telling all this? Why aren’t you simply killing ?”
Karwenz had a strange expression on his face as if he felt that this was a strange question for to ask him.
“Why would I kill you? Ha, just by asking this, I know that the old hag in your body still hasn’t told you everything yet. Go back and ask her properly about our undying trait—”
I didn’t hear the rest of his words, as I was instantly teleported back to the Cloud Tower. However, I had a big headache from the last thing that I saw on the battlefield.
The Yongye City that I had worked so hard to construct was now mostly destroyed. Additionally, its core had also been opened due to all the destruction. I just saw a certain familiar figure crawl out of the core while glaring at with pure hatred—Conservation...
