Four-Armed Divine Emperor

Titan Areg is the only "giant god" who survived the ancient war. He is huge in size and terrifying in strength. If the leader of the gods is not like this, he would not be sent out to carry out the infiltration mission, because the descendants of the war giants undoubtedly mostly inherited the bloodline of giants, and their appearance is very different from that of mortals, making it difficult for them to blend in.

The leader of the gods was very powerful, enough to compete with the Eight-Ring Mage, but his subordinates were relatively weak. Because the old forces had so many people, the entire Outland might have a total population of less than 10 million, and there were only so many capable descendants of gods. It was impossible for them to send them out to carry out the most dangerous espionage missions. Many of them were recruited mortals and rebellious mages.

They had no power to resist the execution team of the Ministry of Truth.

Fortunately, the descendant of God was born with excellent looks and was loved by both his parents. He was also one of the best among the new generation of descendants of God. He had a lot of magic props on him. Facing a strong enemy, although it was probably hopeless to win the battle, it was not impossible for him to fight to the death and fight for a way to survive.

He used repeated high-level group teleportation and space anchoring spell scrolls at the same time, and also used a chaos torrent. This triple-contradictory operation greatly destroyed the stability of the space node at the time, making it difficult for all teleportation spells and anti-teleportation spells to function normally. For example, he originally wanted to teleport to the sky, but ended up being teleported into the sea, which became a pseudo-random teleportation. He was completely gambling on chance, and bought himself and his subordinates a chance to gamble their lives.

The result is self-evident with Al's intervention.

He "succeeded"!

He was not teleported into the lava, nor was he exiled to the outer void, but came to Heian-kyō, the eastern continent under the control of the old times!

Chapter 177: Fighting

However, the spatial disorder at that time was so intense that it swept up everyone present, regardless of their background.

The team of descendants of gods was teleported to Chang'an, but the action team of the Ministry of Truth was also teleported there.

However, when they got here, the old side was not at all panicked, because this was their territory!

The first time he saw the body of the god Asma, the god-descendant who was already struggling to hold on breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he was safe this time, and then he fainted. His body was quickly hugged by a female subordinate behind him.

"Your Majesty the Hunter."

While holding the unconscious commander, she bowed to Asma. Although the others were not as knowledgeable as the woman and could not recognize Asma's identity and title at first sight, just knowing that the person in front of them was a god was enough for them to kneel down and pay their respects.

Chapter 106: This is Sparta (V) (52)

Asuma, who was in the form of a god, nodded slightly to the woman, then waved his hand and sent them all to the ground. The temple was the territory of the shogunate, and the shogunate was the territory of the old times. The old relatives here were undoubtedly treated as the best of the best, and they could get support themselves. As for what happened before and after, Asuma was not interested in taking care of it. With the role he played, he only needed to intervene once at the key point of such a big event, and the less interference he had in other matters, the better.

Asuma turned around and said to the Ministry of Truth mages who were already in dire straits:

"Stop, we abide by the rules of the Ancient Oath."

He meant to let this group of mages surrender so that both sides could have a decent deal. The mages wouldn't have to be beaten and held captive, and Asuma wouldn't have to worry about the reputation of bullying the weak.

The Ancient Oath was an alternative "bellum convention" first concluded by the gods. Because their power was too great, they were only at the same level with each other, and they had overwhelming power over their followers and servants. If there were no rules to restrain them, if someone was angered and broke down, and massacred all kinds of mortals under the gods, then even gods with more power than him would find it difficult to solve these problems. In order to avoid this situation, the earliest gods concluded such an oath, which stipulated the response measures to many issues such as the rules of engagement, the treatment of prisoners of war, and the upper limit of the intensity of engagement.

Later, this oath gradually expanded, and even during the Old War, it was not completely destroyed. Its template later became the original origin of the "rules of war" of the intelligent races in the world of Il. Many things continue to this day, except for the part involving "gods".

Chapter 548

Because it has no object, it is naturally abolished.

These rules did not apply to the mages who founded the White Tower Era because they did not have the situation of "national war".

But as a "remnant of the old days", Asma naturally abided by the etiquette and traditions that were still the continuation of the ancient ones, so he asked the mages to "stop" decently instead of directly and arrogantly saying "ants, surrender or die", which showed great goodwill.

The people from the Ministry of Truth looked at each other. None of them had experienced the War of the Ancients, and the oldest was "only" a high-level wizard who had broken through to the seventh ring at the age of 150 and was now 874 years old.

This is not to say that they don’t know what the “Ancient Oath” is. After all, even if the old days are gone, everything in the past is history that can be learned.

Rather, they have no real understanding of the power of a "god".

Therefore, the wizards of the Ministry of Truth chose to reject Asma's "good intentions". Of course, perhaps they were not unaware of the gap in power, but some excellent qualities such as morality and backbone prompted them to make such a move.

The oldest eighth-ring wizard responded to Asuma's surrender with a lava eruption.

Asuma's eyes twitched, because the lava eruption was not directed at him, but at the ground. The manic fire element combined with the earth under the influence of magic, turning into a miniature "volcano" and began to arch upward and explode.

This is a spell specifically used against the ground. It was invented by war mages and is mostly used on the battlefield because it has great destructive power against mortal armies.

The mages did this with the obvious goal of only the Chang'an Jingseng Temple on the ground. Asma had previously blocked the chaotic torrent and protected the ground. At this time, many people gathered on the ground, and the mage's lava eruption affected them. Many people felt the ground beneath their feet shaking and heating up, and they fled in fear, which immediately caused a traffic jam.

Normally, Asuma would not have to care about this matter, but since he had protected them before, he could not completely ignore it now. He could only use more powerful force to forcibly suppress the restless fire elements and magic power before the spell was officially formed, and calm them down, thus resolving this attack.

But he had already frowned.

Because this time he undoubtedly "lost" something.

It also seemed that the opponent had discovered one of his "weaknesses".

As expected, after realizing that this move was effective, the wizards secretly communicated with each other. Asma sensed the vibration of magic power, and then they began to cast spells one after another, but the main target was not Asma, but the ground, and they all used large-scale spells and used many spell scrolls!

If there are two mages, one uses the third type, which is neither directed at me nor at the enemy, which can be understood as a non-directional spell, and the other wants to prevent his spell from being formed and successfully released, then this person must not only have a certain level of magic control first, but also have to pay a huge price.

If the person casting the spell needs to spend "10" magic power, then to interrupt it during its formation process, the other party needs to spend at least "50" or even higher magic power. It depends on how much magic power the user has spent, but it is at least several times more.

The mages of the Ministry of Truth had undoubtedly noticed Asma's act of intercepting the natural chaos torrent that was not released subjectively but accidentally, in order to protect the ground. In their opinion, this "Witch King", the old enemy, might be the rare kind of person who was moral, kind, and cared about the lives of his slaves. Therefore, they deliberately cast another spell to test it. The lava eruption was only a five-ring spell, but when it was released from the hands of the eight-ring mage, its power was much stronger than usual, and it was already up to the standard of a six-ring spell. It was also a composite spell of the fire element. In a place like Chang'an, if something went wrong, if a fire was caused, half of the monastery would be burned down.

Asuma was in trouble again. If he intercepted it, a lot of his magic power would be tied up.

178: The World’s Targeting

Although he spoke arrogantly at the beginning, as if to say that if you didn't win, you might as well surrender directly, but that was based on the result. If the opponent seized this "weakness" and kept firing at the mortals, it would be easy to start a fire but difficult to put it out. If Asuma was busy rescuing the mortals, it would be easy for these mages to escape.

If he didn't save her, he was afraid that his suspicion would come true and he would be in trouble...

Faced with the wizards who gave him trouble, Asma was really angry, so he simply took a two-pronged approach. On the one hand, he mobilized huge magical power to forcibly interrupt many spells, and on the other hand, he fired at the wizards with all his strength.

He raised his hands, and a leaf-bow made entirely of magic power appeared between his hands. He aimed an arrow at the leading eight-ring mage.

After formulating the diversionary tactics, the wizard who first attacked the mortal did not take any other action except to guard against Asma, making it easier for other teammates to create destruction and chaos.

This ordinary arrow broke through eight layers of magic barriers in succession before being blocked before the last layer.

The mage who was on guard had a different expression on his face, as if he had not expected that this seemingly casual attack could break through his defense continuously.

"For the last time, stop, or you will die first."

Asuma issued his final warning.

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded in his ears.

Kill him and don't worry about the rest.

Asuma's face changed, without any hesitation, he raised his hand and drew his bow.

Chapter 549

Three bursts of shots were fired.

The wizard had obviously not had any experience in fighting for a long time. Even though the magic barrier was easily broken and this method had proven difficult to use, he still chose to continue setting up the magic screen as a protection. However, he increased the nine-layer magic screen to twelve layers, and each layer was injected with more powerful magic than the previous one to fight against the enemy.

Each god has more or less abilities and laws that he or she is good at, and Asuma's power comes from part of the laws of nature and the impact on the world caused by the primitive actions of civilization.

If we talk about what he is best at, there is no doubt that his "shooting skills" are the ability he is most proud of.

He is used to transforming his magic power into a longbow and launching attacks in the form of archery. This is a habit that has accompanied Asuma for thousands of years, and it is also a special skill that he has continuously strengthened and cultivated.

When he shoots an arrow, the power of the laws in his body will give the arrow a special enhancement. If Asma wants, as long as he pays enough, his arrow will definitely hit the target. Especially its special "structure" makes Asma's arrows extremely penetrating against magic defenses. Even the three second-in-commands will feel threatened when facing his full effort, because before Asma is killed by them, he can at least break their defenses and hit them one to several times.

The most memorable epic moment of the "King of the Wild Hunt" was in the war between the gods that broke out before the War of the Ancients, in an era even longer than that. As a die-hard supporter of the Resplendent Queen, he undoubtedly fought on the side of the elves. He shot arrows into the sky and forced back three sun gods who each held the title of "Sun God" in their respective territories and divided the power of the sun. Then, when the queen and the dragon lord were fighting, he used magic as arrows, swept through the battle line, and made gestures of drawing his bow from time to time, forcing the dragon lord to be distracted from the battle. In the end, he was repelled by the Resplendent Queen, allowing the elven pantheon to win the war.

His arrows are not something that ordinary people can block.

In this regard, Asuma is a bit like a "fragile shooter", although shooters generally cannot be said to be "fragile". His ability mainly lies in the threat to the existence of the same level, rather than the strengthening of followers or anything else. In addition, his connection with the queen means that even after the gods became "remnants of the old days", he did not receive attention in terms of status. Of course, the main reason is that Asuma is not very interested in this aspect. He doesn't even want the descendants of divine blood. Therefore, his ranking in the Council of Gods has been continuously falling. Otherwise, he would never have reached the level of the "bottom-place god" today.

But even if his ability is only worthy of a "bottom-of-the-line god", he cannot be stopped by a small eight-ring wizard. Otherwise, what is the point of counterattack in the past? Wouldn't it be possible for the White Pagoda to mobilize hundreds or thousands of eight- or nine-ring wizards to defeat the remnants in no time?

This three-shot pierced through all the defenses of the Ministry of Truth wizard without a doubt. The first arrow pierced through a full ten layers of barriers, the second arrow penetrated the remaining two layers, and then the defensive magic on the robe was activated and destroyed by it, followed by other defensive magic props. There was really no way to resist the last arrow. The eight-ring wizard was quite concerned about his companions. With his thoughts running at the speed of light, he knew that he had underestimated his opponent. There was no chance of survival this time. At the last moment before his physical body was hit by the light arrow, he released his elemental form, shaking all his companions away, and took the arrow alone.

Chapter 106: This is Sparta (V) (53)

The power of the demonic arrow surges through his elemental body, containing the rage and power of an Old God!

The elemental body that the mage was so proud of, faced with this terrifying power, began to burst and collapse as if it was eroded by disordered chaotic elements. The magical body was defeated miserably when it encountered the forcible invasion of even more powerful magic.

"boom!"

His elemental body broke into pieces and exploded, and a powerful magical force surged in all directions. It was a special "scene" produced after the magic power in the mage's body was "liberated".

This impact should have been no less than a "chaos torrent", but it was smoothed out by an invisible force, so that the noise it created was only a little bit big, like a cannonball exploding in the sky.

Up to this moment, this still unknown eight-ring wizard Asma, who was also a person of extraordinary status in the White Pagoda, died in a blaze of glory in a foreign land. He would probably have to endure the insults and condemnations of ordinary people in Chang'an for a while because he was the first to come up with a "rational tactic".

After solving a major "trouble", another arrow of light appeared on Asuma's arrow, and then he looked at the eight rings of another leader.

"We surrender!" The man was much younger than the dead Eight-Ring Mage, and was only over two hundred years old. At this age and with this achievement, he was undoubtedly a well-deserved "White Tower Elite", a rising star who was expected to break through to a higher level and follow in the footsteps of the "Stars". He was in the golden age of a mage, and unlike his predecessors and companions, he had been indulged in "worldly affairs" for a long time due to a change in his thinking and no longer had the possibility of rising.

He can still live and still wants to live.

After seeing Asuma easily kill a more senior wizard than himself, he knew that there was no chance for him and his companions to survive the battle today. Therefore, he even forgot to accept the decent "stop" that Asuma had given him at the beginning, and instead shouted out a shameful surrender.

"Give up resistance, or you'll end up like him."

Asuma shouted coldly, releasing the magic

Chapter 550

He used all his strength to restrain the nine people. One of them wanted to resist, but was shot through the body by Asma's lightning-fast arrow. Because he had not yet broken through the seventh ring and could turn his body into half magic, his death was not as "spectacular" as the previous death of the leading wizard. No one even heard a sound.

The rest of the people naturally did not resist and allowed Asma to imprison them. Then he used invisible magic chains to pull them and brought the nine captives back to the ground.

He felt a faint sense of "ominous omen".

It’s like you always feel like something is wrong and uncomfortable, but you can’t put your finger on it. But after looking carefully, it seems that there is really nothing wrong?

But he knew that this was indeed an "ominous" thing that had quietly arrived.

Il's will, or rather, Il's environment, has been removing "gods" from its version iterations, but due to their stubborn resistance and dying struggle, they have not been completely eliminated for the time being. Now they are "information redundancy" or even "viruses" that take up memory and drag down the overall situation, and they are quite repulsive.

Just like fish cannot breathe on the shore, southerners feel cold in the north, and people in the north feel that the south is damp and hot, the "environment" in Il is no longer suitable for Asma and his friends.

It was fine when they were hiding in the outer realm before, but now they are returning. As an instinct without subjective consciousness, Il will not react so quickly. Otherwise, if they are targeted and restricted by the "world will" as soon as they come back, then there is no point in fighting. It is better to just bet that the White Tower will not kill them all.

But with various processes, such as time, and the increasing number of times the "gods" take action in the mortal world, their power and the influence of the "laws" authority that Il has lost will become increasingly greater, and a "rejection" phenomenon will gradually begin to intensify. Il's human body's instinctive defense mechanism will be activated to fight against these "invader viruses."

This is one of the reasons why the other gods are reluctant to return to Neyr in their true form.

The later they entered, the later they were "targeted" by Ir, and the more power they could use in the decisive battle that determined the fate of everything. Therefore, at this critical juncture at the beginning of the war, after they successfully captured the Eastern Continent, only three gods "returned to reside permanently" in Ir.

179: Follow the Will

This made Asma think to himself that it was not good, "the world's favor is no longer there" - they did not like to use words like "abandoned", "disgusted" and "hostile" to describe Il's hostility towards them, although it was indeed the case.

For the gods, this was the most stinging attack on their growing and fragile self-esteem since their defeat and expulsion.

It is also their biggest weakness.

Because the weakening brought about by this "exclusion" is an objective fact, and the reason why they failed in the Old War was for this reason.

At that time, the gods had been sitting on the high throne, dominating the world for thousands of years. They never realized that there was anything wrong with their behavior. Even though the war between gods was so brutal, to them, it was nothing more than a more special conflict in their long lives. No one expected what would happen later.

Il's rejection of them was gradual, not a sudden weakening of their power. Then a group of mortals who could fight against the gods jumped out from some unknown dimension, but the gods, whose senses were dulled due to the lack of any external threats, did not realize this.

But this situation has developed to the point where it has become an almost ubiquitous attack and targeting.

Asuma had only made a few moves when he sensed an ominous omen. His power was relatively weak, making it easy and obvious to target him. Moreover, even without this layer, his existence as the "weakest god" known in the world would likely make him a target of attack by the White Tower.

Since the War of the Ancients, the gods have fled and the stars have drifted away. In all the conflicts, big and small, that have broken out between the White Tower and the Old Ones, only one godslaying has been achieved, and that was thousands of years ago, and it was that guy's own stupidity.

The one who was murdered was a sea god. That guy was familiar with Asma. He thought that by hiding in the deep sea, avoiding conflict with the White Tower and concealing his whereabouts, he could live a carefree life alone. He really couldn't stand the harsh and cramped environment of the Outer Realm, and complained to Asma, "I am the lord of the four seas, the god of the ocean, and now I am confined to the lake, like a worm in the mud!"

So he looked for an opportunity to escape back to Neyr, dived into the vast ocean, turned rivers and seas upside down, called the wind and rain, just as he said and hoped, he would not interact with the human world, but only be the king of the deep sea, thinking that he could avoid the White Tower and be free. However, due to various reasons, he was found by the White Tower and surrounded and killed several years after his return, becoming the first god to be killed after the Ancient War.

The Council of Gods opposed his actions, but he was determined and even returned to the mortal world without authorization. It was impossible for them to come and capture him, so they could only continue to maintain the superficial "brotherhood". At the same time, they also treated this Ocean God as a passive "experimental subject", trying to gain some experience from him. In order to prepare for the day when the gods would fight back, or when he could no longer make it and had to flee to the outer realm, he also cooperated with his brothers who were still in exile, and told them everything he knew and communicated frequently.

The understanding that "Ir's favor is no longer there" was also deeply confirmed by him, so much so that thousands of years after the death of the God of the Sea, no true god dared to return to Nei'er in the flesh, and at most, an incarnation came.

After all, if you can't declare yourself the king of the world, hiding and being a "mountain

Chapter 551

Your Majesty," their enjoyment will not be any better than having tens of millions of believers and relatives in the outside world.

......

Asma became the first god to take action after the return of the Old Ones. He was destined to be the target of the White Tower. After all, he was very weak. Although his offense was very strong, his nature was similar to that of a glass cannon, so he was easy to target. If he could succeed in killing the gods in the early stages of the war, it would inevitably greatly boost morale, and many plans of the Old Ones would be affected by this.

Asma felt that things were very bad. Although they had planned a counterattack against Naier for thousands of years, because they had no intention of turning the cold war into a hot war, many methods and approaches could not be used or could not be used. Many of their plans were limited to people, such as the hundreds of sky city war fortresses in the White Tower. They would never be able to come up with a high-end force that was equal to it.

The White Tower has established observatories and wizard towers around the world. These magic nodes together form a "magic network" that can guide and gather enormous magic power that no other god can match. It can perform rituals and cast spells, and provide a steady supply of energy for the Sky Fortress, which is something that the gods cannot do.

The gods are undoubtedly very powerful. They are the top force in Il, both in the past and in the present, even after thousands of years. But that is the upper limit.

Although the White Tower is self-contained and conservative, and because of the bottomless black hole of "Exploring the Stars" with no visible bottom and no rewards, it seems to be harvesting and absorbing the essence of Il from time to time, causing many elites who could have become founders of schools, sages and leaders of a generation to abandon all worldly affairs after reaching a certain level and run to follow the footsteps of the predecessors. Although those who finally stay and dominate this system cannot be said to be all mediocre, for example, there are people like Celine who stay in the mortal world, it is definitely not a normal situation.
