Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree
Chapter 1449 - 907: Devouring
The sacred light shrouded the Segis World, with nearly forty mythological figures descending upon the Elf Forest.
At that moment, the entire continent could see the divine power halos in the sky, each representing a Divine.
On the side of the Human Pantheon, led by the first subordinate deity under the Eternal Lord, the God of Knights, Honor and Nobility, Knight, a total of twenty-four True Gods of Faith, ranging from weak to moderate Divine Power, gathered together, encircling the World Tree.
In front of the World Tree, although the number of Divines was fewer, there were still a total of thirteen.
Seven Dragon Gods, four True Gods of the Netherworld, and two Elf True Gods.
Although their numbers were nearly half of those on the side of the Human Pantheon, their momentum was not weak at all.
On the other side, even though the number of Divines on the side of the Eternal Lord presented an overwhelming advantage over the World Tree’s side, these human gods were still grave in expression.
"Dragon God... is Dragon Island also intervening in our dispute with the World Tree?"
Above the sky, the God of Knights, Knight, looked at the few Mythical Giant Dragons that descended in front of the World Tree with a cold expression while a trace of apprehension flickered deep in his eyes.
For there was no other reason: although there were fewer Divines on the World Tree’s side, most of them were ancient gods, and ancient gods inherently had stronger powers at the same level.
Especially since the divine battle was taking place in the Segis World, rather than in the Divine Country of the Gods of Faith.
Balancing quality with quantity, the gap between the two sides was not that significant, or perhaps it could be called evenly matched.
"Hey, Knight, the Elves are our friends, as noble dragons, when friends need help, of course, we must act."
On the side of the Dragons, the Dragon Island Great Elder, the Red Dragon King, Hertos, raised his proud dragon beast head and said with a serious expression.
Of course, if it weren’t for the roar he made when he appeared, his words might have been more convincing now.
Upon hearing Hertos’ words, the other Dragon Gods around him rolled their eyes in unison, and Hertos seemed to notice his companions’ expressions, a slight embarrassment flashing across his face.
Unfortunately, his dragon scales were naturally red, otherwise, one might have seen if his face turned red.
The Red Dragon King gave a light cough, his gaze sweeping over the human gods, and then grinned:
"Hey... why haven’t I seen the Divines of the War God pantheon, didn’t you ally with the War God?"
Upon hearing the Red Dragon King’s words, the expressions of the descending human gods were somewhat unnatural.
It must be said that this Great Holy War was of great momentum, and at the very start of the war, the War God pantheon had announced a high-profile alliance with the Human Pantheon to join this war.
But no one expected that when the real war began, the War God pantheon was all talk, but little action.
Aside from a symbolic attack on the north of the Elf Forest early on, when the Dragon Descendant Kingdom declared war on forces like the Free Half-Dragon Council that believed in the War God, the offensive of the entire War God faction visibly waned.
Such a passive attitude could no longer be simply described as laziness, it seemed as if they were deliberately avoiding battle.
Particularly when the Holy Maniya Empire suffered defeats, and uprisings broke out throughout the empire, with people raising red Life Scepter flags to join the revolution, the War God pantheon became even more passive.
This is the strangest part.
If one were to say the War God pantheon was not genuinely intending to ally but planned to act as a back-end intervention, then when the Human Empire was collapsing, it should have been the best opportunity for the War God faction to step in.
It must be known that during the outbreak of the Empire revolution, the entire Human Kingdom was in chaos, with most regions in a state of extreme weakness.
If at this time, the Beastman Alliance used the excuse of "purification" of Life believers as a declaration of war against the Human World, not only would it be justifiable, but it could also expand its own territory.
But the result was when the towns and fortresses at the border raised the red flag, the War God faction not only did not take this opportunity to attack but instead withdrew some troops from the border.
In sum, it was very peculiar.
And now, when the Human Pantheon launched the full-on assault, taking advantage of releasing faith power and Divine Power energies to meet the unseal conditions of Segis World, unsealing early and descending the main forces of the Divine Battle Army, the War God pantheon did not even send a single clansman to the lower realm.
This was indeed rather unjustifiable.
It was evident that the human deities seemed not to have anticipated that the War God pantheon would back down at the critical moment. After hearing the sarcasm in the Red Dragon King Hertos’s words, their expressions did not look pleasant.
"Hertos, worry about yourselves rather than us; most dragons from Dragon Island are probably here, right? Aren’t you afraid of driving the dragons to extinction with such high-profile participation?"
The God of Knights, Knight, snorted coldly and said.
"Hey, enough with the nonsense, since we’re here, let’s fight!"
The Red Dragon King Hertos sneered, ceased speaking much with the human deities, and roared loudly, charging forward.
Simultaneously, by his side, the other Dragon Gods roared one by one, spreading their dragon wings and rushing toward the enemy.
Aurora, Eris, the two newly ascended True Gods, and the four True Gods of the Netherworld, without hesitation, unleashed their divine power, joining the battle alongside the seven Dragon Gods.
In an instant, the True Gods of the two great camps clashed on the sky of the Segis World.
Nearly forty Deities, with the power to destroy the heavens and earth, erupted in battle, turning the sky of Segis World into an apocalyptic scene.
