Seeing the situation turn dire, Enluka raised her massive body to block the impact of the divine spear.
Suddenly, a shadow shot out from the Battle Space, carrying with it boundless fury that crossed two epochs of Infinite Dimensions, crashing into Enluka.
The Crimson Lizard King, its wings torn but still filled with fighting spirit, roared: "My lord shall be immortal! Our clan—rises!"
Enluka braced against the Crimson Lizard King's forelimbs, biting into its dragon wings.
The Crimson Lizard King's blood-red eyes widened in fury, seemingly devoid of pain. It twisted its massive body, breaking its own wing, and then gripped Enluka's head with its claws!
Fatal Bite!
Fatal Bite!
The two colossal beasts engaged in a brutal physical battle, tearing at each other!
Roar!
The two dragons locked eyes, almost simultaneously unleashing their dragon breath!
Rock Mud Dragon Breath! Doomsday Dragon Breath!
Mountains were flattened, trees crushed, and a world-destroying shockwave sent both dragons flying!
Orson seized the opportunity, guiding the Hurricane Spear, drawing a ghostly arc through the air as he attacked Cain.
Boom!
The Wild Gale swept through, dissipating Cain's golden fighting spirit. His sword came to a halt, its blade scraping against the ground as he struggled to stay upright.
"I am... invincible Cain, the true God-Emperor Cain…"
Cain's expression turned sorrowful, blood spilling from his mouth, his gaze growing hollow and empty.
A crimson text suddenly appeared before all the players:
Kill-21 million!
"My goodness… a direct 10 million damage kill, that's insane!"
Madman gasped, in disbelief, unable to fathom this damage being dealt by a player.
Absolute Kid: "The strongest humanoid cheat! Damn!"
Empress of the Moon: "Cain is dead! We've won!"
Despite having a full-resurrection option, the Godslayer Union was in disarray, having already lost more than half of their numbers. The NPC panels of the two major guilds were absurdly strong, with at least two thousand players still standing.
Above, the magic warships continued to send arrows, causing great trouble for the Union. Players had limited ways to deal with airborne targets, making them highly vulnerable.
However, once Cain died and someone else joined the frontlines, the balance of the battlefield would definitely tip!
"Cain!!! God's son Cain!" Enluka cried in agony, attempting to rush to his aid, only to be held back by the Crimson Lizard King.
"Something's wrong, there's no kill message!"
Orson frowned. Cain knelt on one knee, his sword fallen in front of him, his golden eyes fading.
Yet his health bar strangely locked at "1 HP."
"No one can stop me from conquering this world."
"I will ascend to the highest of Infinite Dimensions…" Cain murmured weakly, his voice frail yet ominously persistent.
"This doesn't make sense."
"This isn't magic; this is damn metaphysics!" Orson couldn't help but mutter in disbelief.
He quickly fired a Chaos Magic Ball, but as soon as it approached Cain, it instantly disintegrated and vanished.
Invincible!
"Isn't this a bit too overpowered? Can't I just brute force my way through?" Orson thought, feeling a sudden surge of danger.
"Alert!"
"Cain, the God-Emperor's son, has activated an unknown forbidden power!"
The system's message echoed. Orson was stunned: "Unknown power? You could at least explain what this power is!"
The God-Emperor's son mechanic was outrageous—twice now Cain survived with 1 HP. If this trend continued, he might become even stronger!
"The supreme dark god, listen to your humble servant's prayer..." Cain continued to whisper.
At that moment, a dark pill surrounded by black mist floated into the air, its magical runes glowing as countless vengeful spirits screamed from within the mist.
Demon Ascension Pill!
Orson's eyes widened in shock. The Demon Ascension Pill had a mysterious origin. Any NPC who consumed it would be transformed into a terrifying demon of the human realm!
In the past, many NPCs had taken this pill, falling to become the most loyal battle apostles of the Heaven Demon vanguard!
Cain's golden eyes turned black, and his already massive body began to swell further.
His face twisted, and sharp fangs appeared at the corners of his mouth. His body vibrated with dark energy as black, inky wings burst from his back. His armor could no longer contain the power and exploded, revealing his skin, now a blood-red color!
The fatal wounds on his chest began to heal visibly, and his muscles, like coiled dragons, writhed violently.
He had become like a demon god!
Cain let out a horrifying roar, as though the wails of hell itself had manifested. Black energy rippled outward, spreading like threads.
"He... he is not the God-Emperor, he is an extreme evil heretic!"
"Ahh!! God of Light, save me! No... please, no!!"
The black threads spread to the NPCs of the two guilds. Thousands of NPCs now showed faces twisted with madness and fear, clutching their heads and screaming in agony, as if some deeply evil force was about to burst from within them.
Dynasty Old Yin: "Can someone explain what these NPCs are doing? Why do they look like they're... dancing?"
Madman: "I'm losing my mind here. What the hell's going on?!"
Madman's mental state collapsed. He thought the battle was nearing its end, only for the idiot guild leader to cause another catastrophic event!
One after another, explosions of dark mist erupted.
Before their eyes, NPC priests and archers began leaking black blood from their bodies.
Their faces became grotesque and evil, their pupils turning completely black.
[Priest·Apostate·Aijelin: Level 60] [Elite Boss] [Health: 10,000,000] [Attack: 7,000] [Skills: Fallen Healing, Fallen Holy Light, Resurrection]
[Archer·Apostate·Freyse: Level 60] [Lord-Class Boss]
All NPCs were significantly enhanced, and their skills now carried the Fallen attribute.
Absolute Kid: "What the hell?! I can barely understand killing NPCs in a game, but what's the deal with fighting monsters now?"
Before he could finish speaking, the dark priest swung his staff like a zombie, releasing hundreds of dark holy lights that crashed down.
Defense -50%!
Attack -50%!
Fallen Critical Hit -30,000!
…
Before anyone could react, over seventy guild knights were killed in an instant.
Soon after, a rain of Fallen Arrows descended from the sky.
Frontline warriors tried to block with their swords, but any contact with the arrows caused their weapons to lose sharpness, significantly reducing their attack power. The weapons also began to shatter easily.
"Magic Dissipation!"
"Divine Protection!"
Drunken Dream shouted in a low voice, but the priests in the legion were stunned.
Low-level dispel magic was ineffective, and due to the healing reduction effect on the arrows, the priests' ability to heal their teammates plummeted.
In a single exchange, over two hundred players from the Godslayer Union were killed, leaving the remaining players barely alive.
"I can't hold on anymore!"
Nightshade, piloting a Titan Mech to shield his teammates, yelled as the mech was rapidly corroded by various strange abilities. With a loud crash, parts of the mech scattered to the ground.
"This is it! We're done for!"
Madman's face was grim, and behind him, Dancing Giant Boobs, who was carrying a magical sniper rifle, said, "We have to use it now, though it'll cause heavy losses... but it's better than being wiped out in one hit!"
"Easy for you to say... If we use that, we'll all die." Madman frowned, quickly weighing the pros and cons in his mind but unable to come to a decision.
Absolute Kid: "What's there to fear in life? If we die, then so be it. Might as well go down swinging!"
Dynasty Old Yin: "Stop worrying about those shitty items. You'll earn more later."
Madman glared at him and scolded, "You guys have no idea how tough things get when you're in charge!"
"Madman, as long as the guild leader survives, and the Celestial Fortress remains, we haven't lost yet!" Nightshade said, his gaze unwavering. At that moment, his eyes turned a deep, eerie blue, his body covered in strange markings, resembling a giant goblin.
Madman thought for a moment before nodding resolutely: "Alright, let's unleash everything on these clowns!"
"Vice President Madman has submitted a Guild Warehouse Authorization request."
"Recipient: ldNightshade."
"Do you approve this request?"
Orson, observing the battle from a distance, raised an eyebrow and sighed: "Do we really have to go this far?"
But without hesitation, he approved Madman's request.
"Member Nightshade has received 5000 Excellent Equipment!"
"Member Nightshade has received 500 Heroic Equipment!"
"… 50 Legendary Equipment!"
In mere seconds, Nightshade almost emptied the guild's resources. Madman felt the pain in his heart, but there was no other choice now!
"...Maximize the activation!"
Nightshade roared, his eyes bloodshot.
[Wagga King's Apostle] S-class exclusive skill: Goblin Frenzy!
This skill could only be activated when there were over 10,000 goblins and they offered a certain amount of high-quality equipment to the Goblin King.
Currently, there were over 90,000 goblins, and 5,550 pieces of Excellent to Legendary equipment were offered, maximizing the skill's power!
In an instant, the labyrinth on the first floor of the Celestial Fortress erupted. A massive number of goblins went berserk, their eyes filled with an insatiable bloodlust!
"Kill—begin!"
"Fight—yes!!"
"Devour—joy!"
The goblins, armed with strange and bizarre weapons, began their frenzied battle. Explosions filled the air, accompanied by the sounds of axes chopping and blades clashing.
Green liquid splattered everywhere as goblins fell, and even the most powerful goblin bombers couldn't survive the onslaught of the smaller goblins. The moment they fell, they were instantly devoured.
The victorious goblins grew stronger, but before they could revel in their triumph, an even stronger goblin would come and devour them!
Here, only the loudest roars survived. The greenest and most bloodthirsty goblins would be the only ones left standing!
