Chapter 1661: Chapter 1242 Straight to the Point
Rom clearly knew that his secret would eventually be exposed, after all, the other party is the Group Leader, who rules over the entire Legion. How could he be foolish?
"Group Leader! Although I made a mistake, it was a minor one, insignificant to your grand Legion. However, what Darkness committed was an unforgivable sin! Out of concern, I didn’t go anywhere else but directly came to you to provide firsthand information!"
Rom hurriedly said.
"Hmm, that’s true, we can talk about your issue later. But this Darkness is really no small matter. She had her Divine Status completely extracted from the ancient Divine Texts, how did she manage to regain Divine Status from them again?"
Thinking of this, the Group Leader once again summoned that God of War who had previously encountered Darkness.
"You, lead one hundred thousand Gods of War to the Divine Power’s original Legion space immediately and bring me that god named Darkness."
The masked God of War immediately asked, "Status?"
"You can have both Divine Status and Divine Power, but you must ensure her consciousness is intact, I need her knowledge," said the Group Leader.
At this moment, Darkness was preparing to leave to seek more ancient Divine Texts, but just then, the space was torn apart again, and the army of one hundred thousand Gods of War returned, led by the masked God of War. Beside him, Rom and his two henchmen were also there; as involved deities, they couldn’t just stand by and watch from afar.
"Be careful, Darkness’s strength is formidable, and it seems she has become even stronger," Rom said, his eyes suddenly widening.
"Where are those Divine Texts! How come the Divine Texts are gone! Could she have taken them? But that’s impossible! Divine Texts operate independently and can’t be interfered with externally, she shouldn’t be able to touch the Divine Texts at all!" Rom anxiously said. The ancient Divine Texts were almost everything for their Divine Power original Legion; from its initial prosperity to its decline to only three gods remaining, they were practically extinct. But as long as the ancient Divine Texts are still there, this Legion still has a reason to exist, and the higher-ranking Legions would also provide them with protection. However, once the ancient Divine Texts were lost, they would truly lose their utility.
"Bastard! Return my things!" Rom and his two henchmen rushed forward, perhaps due to a momentary rush of blood to the head, or perhaps just not to lose their own utility, the usually timid Rom unexpectedly took the lead.
However, midway through the charge, Rom suddenly said to his two henchmen, "Listen, just make it look like we’re trying! Absolutely do not gamble with your own lives!"
The two henchmen, having followed Rom for a long time, knew what he was thinking and immediately responded, "Understood!"
The three gods charged at Darkness, Rom shouted, "Bastard! I took you in when no one would shelter you at our Divine Power original Legion, yet you dared to commit such an outrageous crime! Today, I will finish you right here!"
Rom’s words were meant for the masked God of War; he needed to dissociate himself from the whole affair.
But the moment he spoke, two beams of Divine Power Light Cannons hit his two henchmen from the left and right; they weren’t Gods of War, nor were they truly there to fight. They didn’t have even a bit of protection and were directly killed, their Divine Status and Power overflowing.
"I..."
Before Rom could say more, a golden war dagger had already pierced his body. Unbeknownst to him, Darkness, who was initially at a distance, had already appeared in front of him!
"I... I was just joking..." Rom said in pain.
"I know," said Darkness, "but I’m serious."
As she spoke, Darkness killed Rom directly. Instantly, the Divine Status and Power of all three gods replenished within Darkness.
The masked God of War sneered, saying, "How dare you, to kill a god right in front of me!"
Darkness also smiled, "What should I do then, just wait to die?"
The masked God of War naturally said, "You should!"
Darkness was stunned, clearly, the logic of this world was not what she had expected. Although it seemed to be forming a society, it was essentially still a world governed by power.
"You can try," Darkness said to the masked God of War, gesturing him to come forward, no further words needed. Initially, she tried to avoid fighting because she wasn’t sure how combat worked in this world and whether it would cause her any trouble. But after several battles, she realized that the combat styles of the sixth cavity might be more advanced than those of the seventh cavity, but in reality, they were still hugely lacking and they were not a match for her by any means.
And no matter what, killing and seizing Divine Status was always the fastest way.
"Attack," commanded the masked God of War indifferently. The Gods of War he brought this time, although not the elite of the Legion, had followed him to deal with various emergencies many times before. They were experienced, and even if Darkness herself was very strong, she was just one god after all. Facing the siege of one hundred thousand Gods of War, how long could she hold out?
"Should I help?" Mars asked.
"Not yet, I want to test the strength level of these Gods of War," said Darkness.
"Yes, Master." Mars, having previously killed the Star Devouring Giant Beast, had established his confidence. Despite the large number of opposing Gods of War, after having been pursued by nearly all the gods of the seventh cavity, Mars could only define this situation as a minor scene.
