The journey to the Shadow Plane was not so smooth.
Understanding the Stars Continent as a plane, naturally, it has both positive and negative energy.
Positive energy rises.
Negative energy sinks.
The rising energy enters the Elf Wilderness.
The sinking energy enters the Shadow Plane.
As a reflection of the Material Plane, the Shadow Plane gathers a vast amount of negative energy.
The curses bred from negative energy burn long on this dark land.
So say the Shadow Plane is a graveyard of malicious hearts.
But Chloe would say that negative energy is not equivalent to a curse.
Certainly, negative energy easily breeds negative emotions, but that is a trait of negative energy itself.
It does not an that this energy is inherently evil.
At least from Holy Bone's judgnt, although Holy Bone has imnse restraint against creatures of negative energy, it is not as if facing the Bottomless Abyss, Bator Hell, and Demon Hall, where the restraint becos [True Damage with Critical].
Now, as the superior of the Dark Crow Guard, he finally set foot on this land.
It's just that the situation on-site is not very good.
Only 130 Dark Crow Guards remained.
For the Dark Crow Guard, which once peaked with over 20,000 mbers, being reduced to only 130 is no different from annihilation.
"Your Highness..."
A Dark Crow stood up with a severed arm.
"Sit down."
Chloe stepped forward and pressed him down.
He understood why the Dark Crow Guard suffered such heavy losses.
Previously, while Carl was still alive, he intended to take down a Demon God, a core combat strength of the Abyss, before his death.
In the absence of high-level Demon Gods, it took 2 Demigods and 100 Legends to seize one chance to strike at a Demon God.
But in fact, Carl only realized upon reaching Angel Class that 100 Legends cooperating with 2 Demigods only bought a single chance to strike.
Being able to strike did not an achieving victory.
It did not even an inflicting damage.
Even with soone of Angel Class like him cooperating, it only marginally improved the odds of success.
Angel Class, achieved by stacking stats, is in no way comparable to an Abyssal Demon God who took thousands of years to reach Angel Class.
Indeed.
Even with Carl's assistance, a fellow God, the Stars managed to take down an Abyssal Evil God at the cost of nearly an entire Dark Crow Guard.
Even after killing the Evil God, they were retaliated against by the Abyss, leaving only a few alive.
If not for the assistance of allied races, the situation would have been even worse.
And Carl, too, after killing an Abyssal Evil God, was ambushed by another Evil God from the Demon Hall, falling with almost no resistance.
Chloe took a deep breath and said:
"Which Abyssal Legions were involved in counterattacking the Dark Crow Guard?"
After confirming the list, Chloe turned and left.
He only needed the list.
"Then let's start with Dorison's Ghoul Legion."
Dorison, Abyssal Evil God, Weak Divine Power.
He is the lord of the 421st layer of the Bottomless Abyss, but more people call him the [Ghoul God] instead of an Abyssal Lord.
The Ghoul Legion was also one of the legions that previously besieged the Dark Crow Guard.
"You guys first go and rendezvous with the White Crow Legion, this side will be handled by the Royal Guard."
Chloe snapped his fingers, burned a Vibrant Fragnt, and placed his hand near the ground.
"Group Healing Technique."
"Flesh and Blood Regeneration."
"Law of Blessing."
"Recovery."
A surge of power spread out.
The power summoned by the Vibrant Fragnt dissipated in an instant.
The Dark Crow Guards were astonished to see their injuries.
In such a short ti, their severe wounds had mostly healed?
What healing technique was this, that it could be so extraordinary?
"Leave, from now on this place is taken over by the Royal Guard."
Four Legends appeared beside Chloe.
They are the core of the Royal Guard's core.
Of course.
The current them are no longer the sa.
Chloe has already activated the power of Great Sin: Pride.
It can only be said that the Stars and the Abyss chose two completely different developnt paths.
The True God Uniqueness of the Stars leans more towards [Uncontrollable chanisms].
The Holy Bone's true damage with critical, Cang's absolute accuracy, are the epito of this.
While the Abyss pursues pure destruction, its True God Uniqueness leans more towards [Irresistible Power].
The power of Great Sin's dominion awakens at each major stage.
In other words, there's an awakening opportunity at Extraordinary Class, Exemplar Class, and Legend Class.
The dominion power he acquired at Extraordinary Class is called [Crown of Pride].
Effect: Each ti you defeat an opponent of the sa or higher level, your power limit increases by 10% until the increase reaches 1500%.
See, this is the power of Pride.
Pure destructive power makes it hard for opponents of the sa level to even breathe in his presence.
The dominion power acquired at Exemplar Class is called [Emperor's Pilgrimage],
Effect: When you personally lead an expedition, the combatants, including yourself, will be fearless, with the emperor's overall quality tripled and the king's guard's overall quality doubled.
Chloe had already anticipated this.
The power of Great Sin's dominion will vary based on different choices at different tis.
Now he is more of a high-ranking official than a lone combatant, so this kind of enhancing effect tends to be more group-oriented.
To be honest, if he were thrown onto the battlefield now as a general, even with the most ordinary Extraordinary Legion, they would transform under his command.
An ordinary legion would swiftly transform into veterans after a battle.
If they withstand three consecutive battles of the sa level, they would beco an elite force.
After 10 consecutive great victories, it becos the most elite legion.
However, there are very few legions capable of achieving this.
But as long as there is the [Emperor's Pilgrimage], even ordinary legions can easily transform into elite legions.
But this is not the most terrifying.
The most terrifying is the legendary level of authority power.
[Glory of the King of Pride].
Effect 1: The glory scattered on you solidifies on your loyal subordinates, extraordinary class gains 1% of your power, exemplar class gains 10% of your power, and legendary class gains 20% of your power.
Effect 2: After actively activating, it burns life to transform into the Guard of Glory, gaining a power boost of up to a maximum of 50%, but once activated, it cannot be turned off until the last bit of vitality is burned away.
If the [Crown of Pride] enhances his personal power, the [Emperor's Pilgrimage] enhances the power of the legion.
Then [Glory of the King of Pride] turns this legion into a walking mushroom bomb launcher.
If it weren't for the necessity of loyalty for those enjoying the glory, Chloe would only need to casually lead a legion to sweep away the gods.
But…
Even with restrictions, it doesn't matter.
Four legends, plus him, are enough.
...
"Your Highness, the location of the Ghoul Legion has been confird."
A legendary warrior said in front of Chloe.
Chloe slowly opened his eyes.
He calmly said:
"Are you all ready to die?"
"Yes, for the Empire!" *4
Chloe sighed softly.
It's impossible for war not to have casualties, but sacrificing four legends right from the start still pained him.
But…
"We don't have much ti left, let's begin the operation."
This battle is far more difficult than imagined, he must find a way to quickly eliminate the Abyss.
The number of demigods they have left on the Shadow Plane is already insufficient.
...
At this ti.
The Ghoul Legion was making battle preparations.
They had added a batch of new mbers.
These were the corpses of those who died in the battles between The Stars and the Demon Hall, transford into new ghouls.
Their race always liked to spread the curse of their monarch [Dorison] across corpses in this way, ultimately forming new ghouls they can control at will.
Not long ago, they had increased their numbers again by surrounding and attacking the Dark Crow Guard, creating a new batch of powerful ghouls.
Now, their monarch was ready to set out, planning to continue attacking the front lines of The Stars.
Just as they were feasting on the corpses of the dead, a sudden explosion was heard outside the camp.
The terrifying storm descending from the sky instantly alerted the ghouls.
"Enemy attack!"
In the next mont, the ghouls moved.
Under the command of a high-level ghoul, nurous ghouls charged toward the direction of the enemy's assault.
Then…
They saw four streaks of light streaking across the sky.
The pure extraordinary power swept past them like a gale.
Like a hot knife through butter, the ghoul army was instantly segnted into several parts.
Before they could get close, a second wave of impact flew in from the horizon.
In the rumble.
The entire charging formation of the ghouls was torn to shreds.
The third wave.
The fourth wave.
The fifth wave.
By the ti the ghouls finally saw the enemy amidst the flying dust, they could no longer organize a coherent formation.
The five-person squad broke through like a hot knife through butter; upon colliding with the ghouls, they were easily torn to pieces.
The high-level ghouls in the rear were overwheld with panic.
Too fast.
It really was too fast.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the ghoul soldiers they assembled were laid bare, revealing their position to the enemy.
"Bring out the apparatus…"
A corpse demon angrily tried to command the other subordinates.
But the next mont, he noticed a human before him.
The human's serene eyes locked onto his, but the corpse demon had a feeling.
His ti of death had arrived.
Sure enough, his vision instantly spun.
He saw his headless body still spewing foul blood.
In the next mont, a foot encased in armor stomped down.
The world went silent.
...
On the battlefield.
The five, with the fully stacked effect of Great Sin: Pride, tore through the ghoul defense line.
Before the other ghouls could return to assist, they surged forward, reaching the forefront base of the Ghoul Legion.
A twisted and filthy power spread out.
Chloe sensed the aura of divine power.
As they expected, Dorison was commanding his ghouls from the rear.
"Co, let's send you off!"
Chloe stepped forward and shattered the Ghoul Guard with a punch.
The terrifying power flattened everything in front of him.
The camp at the end of the surging ground, they finally saw the figure of the Ghoul God.
