Volume 4 Chapter 622: The New God King?
"Regional divine power shock wave!"
The powerful force swept across tens of thousands of square kilometers in an instant. When the force receded like a tide, the nearby sky became clear.
All mortals that were covered, whether they were dragons, demons, devils, or other evil angels that joined the gods in the war, had only one fate, which was to be completely turned into nothingness.
There was a sudden commotion on the entire battlefield. The one who could use this move must possess the power of at least level 16, and it seemed that they were reinforcements from the elven pantheon. This might change the situation of the war in the Kingdom of Avandor!
But it’s not over yet. A pitch-black energy filled with dead silence appeared out of nowhere and exploded directly in the area where the demons were most concentrated.
"The region has the power of life and death!"
In an instant, the expressions and postures of more than 20,000 demons froze, and then their entire bodies turned into dust, and were then eliminated into nothingness by the energy of death.
When the force is strong enough, no remains will remain on the body of the deceased.
In an instant, the entire country of Avandor fell silent. This was a god of death with powerful divine power!
The demons, in particular, were terrified, not only because the dead demons were the most elite legions of the Lord of Hell, but also because many of them had been exiled for betraying the Lord of Hell.
More than 30 top-level hell demons are also an extremely powerful force for the Nine Layers of Hell.
Even before the war began, the Lord of Hell had publicly promised that those who had the greatest merit in this war would have their past sins cleansed and promoted to Demon Lords to replace the Ice King who had been murdered not long ago.
But who could have thought that these powerful demons would die so quietly?
After being killed outside the Nine Hells, devils can indeed be resurrected as demons, but that is not without cost.
Especially when killed by such a powerful god of death, they will be forced to reincarnate as the lowest level devils and start ascending again step by step.
For them, this is no different from being completely dead.
The Lord of Hell's expression instantly grew much gloomier, not only because the loss of power had made him heartbroken, but also because he had thought of an extremely tricky possibility.
Originally, this place was not conducive to the battle between them, the demons, but because he wanted to take the opportunity to kill a few elven gods and help other demon lords to ascend to gods, he came here at Rose's invitation.
But now it seems that the situation is not good!
Rose was going crazy because she had thought of something similar, but she was more in disbelief.
She had worked so hard for a long time to achieve a powerful divine power, so how come the other party could do it so quickly?
Gruumsh was a little confused. What was going on? Could it be that Kelemvor had come to help the elven pantheon?
Only Talos, who led the furious gods, wanted to escape at the first moment. He came to take advantage of the situation and there was no need for him to bear the wrath of a powerful god of death.
The morale of the elven pantheon was boosted. In such a difficult moment, have they finally received reinforcements and a chance to win?
But soon, all the participants discovered that this was just the beginning.
Endless strong winds connected the sky and the earth, sweeping across most of the battlefield in an instant, and then gathered into a green wind column, bombarding the area where the green-skinned gods were.
Geumsh's eye twitched suddenly. He vaguely guessed the truth, but he would rather be wrong.
Gu Lanba said in a muffled voice: "Arkadi, it's you!"
While speaking, he actually felt a little relieved, because he didn't want to completely break with the elven pantheon.
With the entire earth elemental plane as his backing, he is certainly not afraid of any gods or pantheons, but it would be very troublesome if he messed with the elven pantheon.
But based on the oath he made, he had to send out two combat incarnations to help Rusike once. No matter how helpless he felt, he had no choice but to participate in this war.
But now the appearance of Arkadi has given him the possibility of being liberated.
As for being defeated by Arcades in front of the gods, although it was a bit embarrassing, he was an incarnation and the other party was the real body, and no one would say anything about this.
What's more, as the weakest among the four elemental gods, he has been defeated by Arkadi many times, so this time is not a big deal at all!
The Zerg Prince, the Queen of Chaos, the Wolf Spider-Mishka and many other demon gods also felt very bad.
Back then, the Wind God, Arkadi, did not make a move, but those Dukes of Wind Element swept across the Abyss. Even if they were all promoted to Gods now, could they be compared with Arkadi? For a time, they all wanted to retreat.
Immediately afterwards, a huge golden sword energy cut through the sky, killing a large number of demons again. Tyr went into battle with the Three Saints of Justice and the Goddess of Justice - Valenca.
Although they are each encountering some troubles, they have more than one incarnation. As partners of justice, it is more than enough for them to take the time to support Levi.
Sigmar and the dwarf gods also gathered extraordinary divine power one after another and launched an attack together.
They are acquaintances of the elven pantheon and have no reason to come, but their relationship with Levi is completely different, and they all have grudges against the greenskin pantheon. At this special moment, of course they have to show up together!
Next are the gods on Mount Paradise. Their strength is obviously weaker than others. Only Horus, Isis and Ursun are considered to be okay.
But that doesn't matter, they just came to take the opportunity to show their face and support Levi.
Then, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, on the left was Lilith, who had been officially revealed to be of great divine power, on the right was Moon Bow, with medium divine power, and Levi, who was followed by two Angels of the Dawn, appeared.
The artifact-level sword in his hand - Sahandron and the Star-Shining Residence above his head are emitting unprecedented light.
This made it clear to everyone present that he not only accepted Corellon's inheritance, but also defeated Rose and took back the relics of the dead Twilight Knight from her.
At the same time, the majestic power of light and death on his body also reveals his identity and power.
He is not only the lord of Mount Heaven, but also the god of death in the underworld!
Except for Eilistraee and Illidan who had been informed in advance, and Lolth and the Lord of Hell who had vaguely guessed it, many other beings, both enemy and friendly, could not help but be shocked.
They had many assumptions in advance, but they never expected that the other party would be Levi!
Rose suddenly fell into complete madness: "Damn Levi, Corellon, that hypocrite, actually entrusted all his power and hope to you!"
The two Xi angels were immediately furious: "How dare you be so rude to our Lord!"
As they spoke, they raised their swords and began to condense powerful magic in their hands. No one would doubt their determination to protect Levi's honor and fight against Rose even at the cost of their lives.
Seeing this, basically everyone present has completely recognized the reality.
If even the two Dawn Angels who are most loyal to Corellon have such an attitude, then Levi must have really accepted everything about Corellon.
Levi's face was calm. He just slowly raised Sahandron and pointed it at Rose, then gradually moved it towards powerful enemies such as Gruumsh, the Lord of Hell, Talos and Bahamut.
"My name is Levi Goethe, the Lord of Mount Paradise, in charge of the power of death, light, and purification."
"From now on, I will shoulder the duties and obligations of His Majesty Corellon, and strive to complete his unfinished work and make the elves great again."
"I welcome the arrival of my friends, but all those who stubbornly oppose the elves will surely face the wrath of God!"
The sound was not loud, but it instantly spread throughout the entire country of Avando and even the entire main world.
In just this moment, Levi successfully won over hundreds of thousands of believers who originally belonged to Corellon, and this number was rising rapidly every second.
They may be acting on impulse now, so their piety is generally low, but I believe that as long as Levi can achieve more results, their piety will increase rapidly.
The elves haven't had a powerful god of death for a long time. After Rose's betrayal, Corellon has been depressed for too long. Perhaps now Levi will be able to lead the elves to true glory!
Similarly, this is what many of the elves and gods present thought.
Although Levi became a god in such a short time and grew stronger so quickly that it seemed like a dream to them for a moment, the facts are now before their eyes.
Moreover, from another perspective, doesn’t Levi’s miraculous growth process also illustrate his talent and strength?
Before he finished speaking, Levi had already demonstrated the might of his powerful divine power, letting everyone present understand that it was his real body that was fighting now.
Unfortunately, neither Rose nor Gruumsh felt greedy because of this. Instead, they only felt it was troublesome.
Because all of them were incarnations, they were much weaker than Levi who possessed a level 16 godhood!
Then Levi flew directly to Rose: "Rose, you shameless traitor, we just killed your original body, now we are here to destroy your incarnation!"
As he spoke, Levi launched a fierce attack on Rose.
Though his experience in close combat was minimal, Corellon's lore contained the skills, techniques, and experiences of many powerful warriors.
When he held the divine sword and attacked Rose's incarnation, which had fallen to level 7, with his level 16 body, his chance of winning was still very high, because it was a crushing force of strength, not to mention that he also used two artifacts.
The Twilight Knight's famous battle was in a one-on-one duel. With the assistance of the Starry Mansion, he defeated Rose's level 7 incarnation with his level 6 godhood.
So Levi didn't need to do too many fancy things. He just needed to rush forward and exchange injuries with Rose. He was sure that Rose would be the first to die.
What's more, Tyr, Sigmar, Lilith, and even the dwarf gods and elf gods would never let him fight alone and sit idly by. Levi really couldn't think of any reason for himself to fail!
The next moment, Lilith and Yue Gong took the lead in responding with practical actions. Not only their combat incarnations, but also their real bodies flew out from the interior of the kingdom of God.
Although this is somewhat risky, in such a special situation, only by sending out their real bodies can they truly display their momentum.
They want to tell everyone present that for the sake of the elven pantheon, they are not afraid of sacrifice and death!
The Moon Bow is okay, but the significance of Lilith's real body in battle is extraordinary.
She was already fully equipped with luxurious equipment, and after obtaining the Iron Gauntlet of Corellon, she became the strongest meat shield in the elven pantheon, second only to Cain.
She teamed up with Moon Bow to forcibly stop the Platinum Dragon God - Bahamut, which allowed several elven gods to free up their hands to launch attacks, which led to a rapid change in the battle situation.
Similarly, reinforcements such as Tyr and Sigmar, as well as the morale-boosted elven gods, also launched desperate counterattacks.
Even Cain, who had always been dissatisfied with Corellon, and the thoughtful God of Bows and Arrows - Solonor and God of Storms - Matheran, did not express any special opinions, because repelling the siege of powerful enemies was the top priority at the moment.
Iristri even shouted directly: "Levi, I believe in the vision of the Father God, I support you to become the new God King of the Elven God System!"
Illidan, Sobek and other gods who had the best relationship with Levi also responded.
When Corellon was still alive, they were a little ostracized because they were too close to Lilith.
But if Levi became the God-King, the situation would naturally be very different.
Then after a brief hesitation, the god of wisdom - Hoeth and the god of blacksmiths - Val, and others also spoke up in agreement.
Lilith had just communicated with them, and they either couldn't resist Lilith's request or were moved by Levi's promise, so they all expressed their support.
More importantly, they actually think this is a very good choice.
There are only four powerful gods in the elven pantheon now. If Lilith wants to fight for it, they will certainly support the daughter of Asuryan.
But now that Levi has the support of Corellon and Lilith, things are very different.
If Levi is not chosen, then neither Angris, who is too calm, nor Cain, who is too impulsive, is the best choice for the elven pantheon.
Hearing this, the Winged Elf Goddess and the Dolphin Prince also spoke up. The former already had a good relationship with Lilith and Levi, while the latter accepted Lilith's conditions.
Although the giant female demigoddess, Deancastra, was only his mistress, his actual wife was the dolphin goddess, Theresina, so he was called the Dolphin Prince.
But for the sake of this mistress, he finally agreed to Lilith. There was no other way. He had almost no shortcomings in other aspects, but he was rather fickle and especially loved the giant female demigod.
But strictly speaking, for a god, this might not be a weakness, and even the Dolphin Goddess herself has not commented on it.
Then some Golden Heart ladies who were on good terms with Lilith or Moonbow also expressed their support for Levi.
But Angharris, the hunting god Kunos, the bow and arrow god Solonor and others basically did not express their opinions.
Levi's godhood level is sufficient, and his previous statement is also very good, but whether Levi will put it all into actual action later, they still need to observe further. After all, most of them were not familiar with Levi before.
Levi's reaction was very special. He first handed Corellon's Crescent Amulet of Pure Kindness to Eilistraee, and then replied:
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highnesses. However, as a new god, I am afraid that I am not yet capable of shouldering all that His Majesty Corellon is carrying. So I will prove myself with practical actions until I am truly worthy of that position!"
No one present was stupid, and they all understood immediately that Levi not only wanted the throne of the King of Gods, but also wanted some fame and face!
I guess even if he kills a few more evil gods, Levi will probably still refuse, right?
But it must be said that as a powerful god of death, Levi is already capable of acting according to his own ideas.
For example, Levi still had time to respond to the gods, but his opponent, Rose, didn't even have time to speak.
At the beginning, the gods could all see that Levi was obviously a little unfamiliar with the technique, but it didn't take long before he quickly became proficient and began to beat Rose violently.
As a powerful divine power, Levi can master any knowledge in a very short time, unless it involves the original power.
For example, frightened by his power, Talos has begun to quietly escape with the furious gods.
The elven gods did not pursue him too hard, because as a notorious old rogue among the gods, Talos was a bully who only cared about the strong and the weak. It would not be too late to beat him up when they got the chance later.
Levi also didn't care too much, because he knew long ago that most of those unreasonable beings were not really unreasonable. They usually just disdained to reason with beings weaker than them.
Once they encounter a being more powerful than them, their behavior often surprises ordinary people.
After this period of time, when Levi has firmly established himself as the God-King, he will make Talos pay the price.
In order to pray for peace, Talos will definitely find a way to satisfy Levi.
On the other side, many devils led by the Lord of Hell and many demon gods seemed to be ready to retreat.
The evil dragon goddess Tiamat was the first to run away, but before she left, she couldn't help but taunt him: "Bahamut, you idiot, is this your perfect plan?"
But the Platinum Dragon God just remained silent. He knew that he had failed utterly, but he had no way out.
Just like Levi just said, he also wants to make dragons great again!
But the gods of Mount Heaven did not intend to let them all evacuate safely. They might not have much to do with the Lord of Hell, but they could completely crush those ordinary Hellfire Fiends and Balor Flame Demons.
Tyr and his men also behaved very actively. Before, they had always wanted to eradicate these evils, but they never had the chance.
Due to the strong restraint of their attributes, it is impossible for them to directly kill into the Abyss or the Nine Hells.
Now that the enemy has come to their doorstep, how could they let them go? The camp attributes of the Avandor Kingdom have a strong suppressive effect on the devil, and they must seize the opportunity!
However, the two angels of the Dawn did not go with the gods, but under Levi's orders, they went to find the King of Brands - Markkid.
The three former colleagues were now fighting each other, and it seemed that it wouldn't be long before the outcome, life or death, would be decided.
Even after his fall, the Branded King learned a lot of dark and evil powers, but his two colleagues did not waste their time. In addition, it was two against one, so the Branded King's chance of winning was pitifully low.
As for the big demons brought by the King of Brands, they are not even qualified to be cannon fodder in a battle of this level.
Apart from this, up to now, the only ones still persisting in fighting are probably the greenskin pantheon led by Gruumsh, the drow pantheon of Lolth, and the platinum dragon god - Bahamut.
The difference is that the first two are probably still unwilling to give up. After all, they are mortal enemies of the elven pantheon. If they miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, they don’t know how many years it will take for the next one to come.
As for the latter, Yue Gong and Lilith didn't want to let him go.
At the same time, news came from the island of Ulthuan that the invading dragons began to retreat on a large scale under the cover of the Dragon Vassals and Dragonborn.
But now the offensive and defensive situation has been reversed, and Oshuan is not a place where the opponent can come and go as they please.
Especially after Imrik and other gods sent their incarnations to fight, Bahamut's followers were experiencing a massacre.
Seeing this, many people who were lurking in the dark became more restrained, because they all knew that the elven pantheon suddenly had two powerful gods, Levi and Lilith, as well as a moon bow with medium power.
And somehow they got the help of the wind god Arcades, as well as the support of Sigma and other powerful people. It was impossible for the elven pantheon to fail in this war. Anyone who dared to show up now would probably be killed as a warning to others.
Seeing that the situation was so good, only Kane publicly expressed his dissent: "Levi, come and compete with me to see who can achieve greater results!"
Having said this, Cain swung his divine weapon, the Sword of Cain, and slashed straight at the greenskinned God-King, Gruumsh.
Gruumsh also roared, raised his famous artifact, the Blood Spear, and launched a fierce counterattack against Cain.
Do you understand the situation? If it weren't for Angris's help, would you have been able to fight me like this? You're talking as if you have the upper hand!
At the same time, Gruumsh shouted at Levi: "That bitch Corellon gave you her power? Sooner or later, I will take it all away!"
Moonbow, Eilistraee and other insiders were all stunned. If it was before, Gruumsh's curse words might just be to insult Corellon, but today was different. Before Corellon died, he really turned into a woman...
But Levi just smiled: "Oh? If you really have the guts, why not send out your real body to fight a decisive battle with me, how about that?"
Gruumsh snorted, but didn't fall for it at all. Ordinary greenskins didn't have much brains, but as the God King of Greenskins, he was not a fool.
If he really dared to fight with his original body, Levi would definitely organize a siege, because compared with the possible benefits, that little bit of fame is nothing.
These hypocrites from the good camp never hesitate to use some means when dealing with evil camps like their own.
Seeing this, Levi couldn't help but continue to provoke: "Why, you don't dare? Could it be that you are worried that you will lose your other eye?"
Gruumsh was immediately furious: "Damned Levi, I swear in the name of Gruumsh, you are dead!"
One of his original eyes was blinded by Corellon, and because of the influence of divine power and the power of origin , he has not been able to recover it until now.
He has always regarded this as the greatest humiliation, but he never expected that Levi would dare to reveal his scars!
For a moment, the other gods couldn't help but secretly admire Levi's courage. You know, even if the two sides were in a hostile state, the only ones who really dared to mock Gruumsh in person were only a few such as Corellon and Cain.
Geumsh's mind and magnanimity were not very broad. With just a few words, Levi successfully found himself an eternal enemy with whom he would fight until death.
But despite this, Geumsh never mentioned using his original body to fight.
Seeing that the other party still did not fall for it, Levi felt a little regretful, but this was understandable. Even if the two sides were mortal enemies, he had to admit that Gruumsh was not easy to deal with, and the greenskin pantheon was not so easy to be completely wiped out.
Because in addition to the greenskin gods present, there is also the mysterious and unpredictable Second Brother in the greenskin pantheon, who is almost never seen by any god.
According to Lilith's memories in the parallel world, the two brothers were most likely at the same level as Sigma, or even stronger.
Normally, they might not care much about killing millions of greenskins, but if you want to completely exterminate the greenskin pantheon, they will almost certainly show up.
With our current strength, we are far from being sure of winning.
However, being unable to completely wipe them out does not mean there is no way to weaken them.
In addition to deciding to completely destroy all the incarnations of the green-skinned gods here, Levi also prepared other backup measures.
For example, when Levi ambushed Gruumsh's son, Jedreg the Strong, he met a Harper member named Thrall.
As a hybrid of humans and greenskins who was raised by humans since childhood, Thrall dreams of the greenskins stopping the fight with humans, dwarves, and elves, and instead turning their swords and rage against evil forces such as demons.
At that time, Levi threw a little bit of his heroic spirit to the other party, and he kept paying attention to the other party afterwards.
Although Thrall is obviously an outlier among the greenskins, the greenskin gods tolerate his existence because he easily integrates heroic divinity.
And because he had received human education, after a large number of greenskins were massacred by the dwarves, he quickly gained a good position with his wisdom and ability, and also united a group of trusted subordinates.
More importantly, probably based on his special experience, he is obviously a lawful neutral and kind being, which is in extremely serious conflict with the ordinary chaotic evil green-skinned gods.
If Thrall is allowed to continue to develop, how long can Gruumsh tolerate him?
If possible, Levi even wanted to help Sal secretly.
It would be best to split the greenskins into two parts. This would be a good thing for races such as elves, dwarves and humans.
What follows is suppression, luring and division. Just like how the Zhendan pantheon deals with ogres, Levi can also deal with different greenskins in different ways.
The essence of the greenskins is not evil, but chaotic. It is only under the leadership of Gruumsh that they appear so evil.
Uncontrolled chaos can often cause greater damage and destruction than evil itself.
But if they can make changes under the leadership of Thrall, Levi feels that they can also play some other roles.
As for whether the overall strength of the greenskins would become stronger after accepting Thrall's many rules, Levi didn't think it would be a big problem.
Even if Thrall could successfully ascend to godhood and successfully spread his cause to all greenskins, how much time would it take them to catch up with the elves?
Hundreds of years or thousands of years? Are the elves really afraid of such a challenge?
As for whether Thrall would eventually be forced to submit to Gruumsh or become part of his evil ways, Levi didn't care.
It was the idea that mattered to him, not Thrall himself.
If things don't develop as he wishes, the worst that can happen is that he will kill Thrall and then secretly train a new Thrall.
As a powerful god of death, if he wanted to take the life of a mortal in the main world, even Geumsh would be powerless to resist.
On the other hand, Kane next to him looked at Levi with a much softer look. Originally, the other party was just a little guy following Lilith, so he never looked at him straight in the eye, even though the other party became the lord of Mount Paradise.
But now it seems that he is somewhat in line with my temperament.
However, this alone is not enough for me to support him to ascend to the throne of God King!
