What were Gods? There was actually no way to answer this question. After all, in this colorful world, there were far too many existences with the title of God. Not only that, they had truly reached the level of God in everyone's hearts, but in reality, they couldn't be considered the same.
Elemental Gods, True Gods of Order, Evil Gods of Chaos, Primordial Gods, and so on. They were all completely different in terms of composition, abilities, nature, and so on. Nobody could give a complete definition of them. Even the Demon Lords in the Chaos Abyss could call themselves Gods and recruit believers to bestow Divine Arts upon them.
In reality, there were quite a few devils and demons who did this. Their believers usually hid in the shadows, and those dangerous devil worshippers were often on various wanted lists.
However, the Order Gods, as the victors of the last Holy War, actually had the most complete information.
As for Rose, she was exiled from the Order Faction. From a certain standpoint, she was quite similar to an ordinary Order True God. She had her own Divine Kingdom and Oracle, and she would even protect the Dark Elves.
In order to understand these undying existences, one had to first understand the difference between the Order True Gods and other Gods. The Order True Gods were usually directly connected to a certain Divine Concept, and their existence represented the Concept itself.
First of all, one shouldn't treat the Gods as individual entities. While they were indeed high above and eternally immortal, they were still subject to many restrictions.
They created their own Divine Domains, but their true bodies were also trapped within their Divine Domains. They merged with their Divine Concepts and Concepts to become incredibly powerful, but they were also merged with Concepts and lost their sense of self.
The Order Faction was still the Order Faction. Their God System was like a large tree with lush branches and leaves. All the Gods were a part of the tree, and each Divine Concept and God had various kinds of connections.
Low God, Middle God, High God, Main God. This was only an extremely rough classification, but from a certain standpoint, this was the current situation of the World Tree.
If the Main Gods were the top of the God System, then the powerful Gods were their branches that continued downwards, and the countless souls and power of belief were the nourishment and nourishment for the World Tree.
In a way, Rose was still the same elven God of Order from back then. She wanted to create her own World Tree and make herself a true Elven Main God. Her first step was to rebuild the dark elven divine system, and the God of Poison, Felix, was obviously the first.
And when they became a part of the World Tree and lost part of themselves, from a certain point of view, these True Gods should not be treated as individual beings. The closest existence to their current situation was the collective concept of a country.
One God and one Divine Kingdom. They were a combination of concepts and collective interests. While they obtained the authority of "system administrators," they were also tightly bound by the responsibilities of "administrators."
Leave his own Divine Kingdom? That was a great taboo, and as long as they did not leave the Divine Kingdom, it was impossible for the gods to truly die. If the incarnation they sent out was killed, it would only be a loss of divine power.
In the modern world where the Elemental Tide wasn't very active, there was a limit to the strength of an incarnation. A SemiGod incarnation might be able to deal with most situations, but against a veteran SemiGod who had experienced hundreds of battles, the incarnation would often become a test subject for the other party to research divine power.
In order to allow their Guardian Deities to be truly useful, the ancient Elf Empire had once led the world in this area.
"God's Descent!"
Using a special body, the True God would adjust his or her own soul wavelength to match the True God's soul wavelengths. Then, the True God would give up control over his or her physical body, allowing the True God's will to perfectly merge into his or her physical body, allowing the True God's will to be incredibly powerful.
If the True God's Descent was successful, the True God's will would perfectly descend. Will was power, and the soul was power. If the True God's Descent was more than 90% complete, then in this state where the soul and body were one, the True God's Descent would be far more powerful than his or her incarnation. His or her combat strength would be close to that of the True God's main body.
It should be mentioned that "God's Descent" was a double-edged sword. The soul was the other side of power. It was the pure embodiment of will and power. If the True God's Descent died, it was highly likely that the True God's divine power would be greatly damaged. And if the True God himself was only a Low God, it was highly likely that the True God would directly die.
Clairladin, the Forest Guardian Deity, was indeed incredibly powerful when he or she descended on his SemiGod level descendant. In fact, he or she even forced Rose to descend on her true body. But it was precisely because of this that Clairladin's Descent died in battle that Clairladin himself fell.
The requirements for a God's Descent were incredibly strict, especially the requirements for the True God's Descent. It was only natural that the True God's Descent would be as close to the True God as possible. It would be even better if the True God's bloodline and soul wavelengths were similar. From a certain standpoint, Cavendish's Descent was the Chaos Abyss's version of a God's Descent. At the very least, the principles were quite similar.
However, there were professionals in this area. The human witches of the far west, the soul shamans of the beastmen, and the moon elf priests of the elves all had God's Descent physiques known as Spiritual Bodies. And the moon elves had a long history in this area.
Moon elves had been an important role in the Elf Empire since ancient times. Throughout the Elf Empire's long history, all the high priests had been moon elves.
Their natural Spiritual Bodies made it incredibly easy for moon elves to communicate with the True Gods, and borrowing divine power to use super Divine Arts was a natural talent of their species.
And when Adrian joined Rose's side, the Spider Queen unhesitatingly chose him as her future Descendant. Amelia's many setbacks were due to this natural poison imbued with divine power, which greatly countered her.
"God's Descent!"
As Adrian muttered, a pitch-black light descended, and a mysterious black fog began to wrap around Adrian's body.
Strange magical runes appeared on every part of his skin. Adrian knelt on the ground in pain, but all the spears and arrows thrown at him by the humans were blocked.
"Poison God Felix!"
It didn't take much thought to know that the corroded ground around Felix was a clear indication of his identity. He was the lucky one who had recently ascended to the Divine Throne.
The Dark Elf God Felix had long since reached the peak of SemiGod rank. With Rose's help, he had stolen the Forest Guardian God's Divine Concept. His original Divine Concept of Forest Sower and Guardian God had mutated, and combined with the Poison Assassin Felix's own special abilities, he had become the Poison of Nature Divine Concept.
And I didn't even need my own eyes to see who this opponent was. That was because at such a critical moment, my System wouldn't be willing to remain silent.
[Epic Quest: Slay a God]
[Quest Hint: Kill the Poison God Felix and let the foolish Rose taste the pain of losing her son again. Let her know what happens to those who go with the flow.]
[Reward: Based on your contributions, it will be worth at least 50,000 Fate Points.]
[Punishment for failure: Trust me, if you fail, there's no need for punishment. He's just a super weak God. You can't possibly fail, can you?]
"Slay a God? You really think highly of me. Even if he's a super weak God who just became a True God, I wouldn't have any confidence in killing him. "
The Adrian before me was no longer in human form. The power of a True God was beginning to change his form. With a series of distortions, the boundary between reality and illusion was broken, and a gigantic black spider walked towards reality.
He was even more evil than the Devil Lords in my nightmares, and even more majestic than dragons. Right now, that gigantic black spider's eight eyes were glowing with greed. The digestive juices in its disgusting giant mouth had already melted the ground in front of it, and the venom in its tail was constantly seeping out. The poison only reached the tips of its feet, and the venom between its legs was enough to transform the ground into a poisonous swamp.
Its divine power gave it extraordinary supernatural abilities. Just looking down at it would cause others to despair. Just looking at it would cause the weak-willed to fall into despair and madness.
But …
"Fight it to the death! We have nowhere to retreat to! At least don't die like a girl! "
That's right, there was no need for me to waste my breath or forcefully lead the way. We had nowhere to retreat to.
"Ptui! Rose, I'm going to properly deal with you for this! "
I spat out a mouthful of blood as I once again raised my Roland Sacred Sword and led the charge. I was prepared to complete this Myth-ranked Quest that belonged to me.
…
With a God's descending body as the opponent, the battle was in dire straits.
The huge spiders were so agile that they moved like precision machine tools, easily tearing apart the fortifications of the defensive line.
Under the King of Poison's control, black mist surrounded its limbs. Magic spells and arrows were instantly destroyed before they could even come into contact with it.
The most troublesome part was still that terrifying poisonous mist. Anyone who came into contact with it would instantly die. Those who didn't even get up yet would die.
"I've determined the divine power's attribute. It's not just pure poison, but also conceptual corrosion and withering! He's causing life to deform in advance! Absolutely don't touch it! "
The moment Heloise finished speaking, Felix's giant eyes locked onto her, and he spat out a mouthful of purplish-black venom.
Felix wasn't a brainless beast. His senses were far superior. Even though he only had the appearance of a black cat, he was able to point out my Divine Domain and nature, which made me his number one enemy.
While the battle was in full swing, the Orc Chieftains were watching coldly from the high platform of a tower not far away.
"… Don't we need to send troops to help? Isn't that our ally? "
A pig tribe leader seemed to be rather puzzled. Weren't they supposed to be the main characters of the battle? Why were they watching their ally go into battle while watching from the back? This wasn't the beastmen's usual style.
"Help? Heh heh, if that spider really doesn't turn around and kill us after wiping out the humans, I'll have to thank the God of War for protecting me. "
"Ally? He clearly has such great combat strength, yet he's watching us suffer heavy losses after a night of bloody battle, and now he's jumping out to help? If this isn't stealing the spoils of war, then what is? "
Beastmen simply preferred using their fists rather than their brains, and they weren't idiots. How could they not see through Rose's scheming?
Almont spread out his single arm, and the slowly falling snowflakes landed on his palm. As they accumulated, they were melted into snow water by the warmth of his palm.
* Crack! *
Almont clenched his fist tightly, and a vicious glint appeared in his widened eyes. At this moment, he was undoubtedly the beastman king.
"Prepare for battle, and finish organizing the troops before the snow falls. In this battle, no one, no race, is worthy of trust. Brave warriors, prepare to fight to the death for honor and our ancestral land. Even if we're destined to be buried here, we'll let this cruel world understand the backbone of us beastmen! "
Suddenly, an aged horn sounded from afar. That was a summon from a true ally.
"They're finally here!"
All the tribe leaders revealed delighted expressions. At this moment, I had just received a scout's report, but I suddenly froze.
"How can there be more beastmen? Didn't they already send out their main forces? "
But from the direction of the incoming army, as well as the tribe's battle flag, I instantly understood.
"Beastmen of the plains? That damned Ömdiroken! "
Since the beastmen of the plateau region were capable of using earth elemental tunnels to reach human territory, then why couldn't the beastmen of the plains region do the same? Perhaps this was Ömdiroken's final trump card!
But right now, there was nothing I could do. I thought that the venomous spider in front of me was already difficult enough to deal with!
"Heloise, prepare yourself! If we must die here, at least drag these bastards down with us! "
Suddenly, another battle drum sounded, and that familiar elven chant actually caused the huge spider to reveal a human-like expression of delight.
As for me, after carefully listening to it, I also smiled.
"Finally, it's time!"
