Global Game: Developing a Knight Clan

Chapter 515: Chapter 102: Titan Onslaught, Strike First

As for Low Demon, or even Mid-Demon worlds.

It wasn’t that they couldn’t devour them, but with the Mana Will present, it was somewhat troublesome to digest them, even for Authority Level beings.

The main issue was that it took far too long.

Furthermore, the Mother of All Things didn’t even hide her methods for ascending to the Pillar Divine Realm.

Evidently, the relationship between the Three Gods wasn’t as adversarial as Lince had imagined.

After all, even if the God of All Machines and the Mother of All Things had postured as a united front against the God of Thousand Faces, at the end of the day, that was only because they were the only three Authority Holders in the Cosmic Game back then.

And the God of Thousand Faces was stronger than either of the other two.

It was only natural that such a situation would form.

But things were different now.

Lince’s appearance had already shattered this balance.

Perhaps, in the beginning, all three had wanted to win Lince over and create an entirely new dynamic.

However, now that Lince had revealed the existence of his kin—the Earth Giant Dragon and even the Dawn Giant Dragon—it gave the Three Gods an opportunity to ease the tension in their relationship.

Although the Earth Giant Dragon and the Dawn Giant Dragon were not Authority Holders of the True Cosmic Game, Lince was!

Using his game authority, if a fight were to break out in the future, Lince could instantly summon two powerful allies with the Power of his authority.

Under these circumstances, the power structure had clearly changed once again.

Three versus three.

Lince’s Dragon Race against the Three Gods of the Cosmos.

This didn’t mean they would inevitably fight in the future.

It just meant that the necessary precautionary measures had to be in place.

At the very least, they needed to establish effective means of mutual restraint.

That way, it would be less likely for a fight to break out over the final struggle for authority.

Of course.

Lince’s current soft power was at the very edge of what the Three Gods of the Cosmos could grudgingly accept.

If more Authority Level Ancient Gods were to join Lince’s side without any effective intervention, a war for authority could break out at any moment.

Of course, this was assuming there was no effective intervention.

Therefore, for now, they couldn’t even think about such things for the next ten thousand years.

After all, they had signed a contract.

Ten thousand years?

In the current situation, when it came down to it, it wasn’t just Lince who thought it was unnecessary; the Three Gods of the Cosmos each felt there was no longer a need to fight for authority either.

Who knew which one of them might ascend to become a Pillar someday?

In the words of the God of Thousand Faces, once you ascended to become a Pillar, many things might not even matter anymore.

It would be nice for everyone to help each other out and have a familiar face to talk to in the end.

Besides, rather than letting some unfamiliar Deity occupy the vacant Pillar Divine Realm of another Law, it was better to let a familiar Deity fill that spot.

After all, they had cooperated for many years and had a certain rapport.

In fact, when Lince had invited them for help this time, they had discussed the matter of the Pillars, and the Four Gods had made a pact.

It was a pact made under the witness of the True Cosmic Game.

If any one of the Deities was about to break through to the Pillar Divine Realm, then the other three would stand guard and help each other, assisting them in dealing with any potential interference or sabotage from other Authority Level Deities of the same system.

There was no doubt about this.

According to some information the God of Thousand Faces had recently obtained from an unknown source, when a being like the Lord of the Black Prison was on the verge of breaking through to the Pillar Divine Realm, the resulting disturbance would surely be spectacular and terrifying.

Deities throughout the Cosmos—at least within a certain range—who controlled the same Law and authority as the Lord of the Black Prison would inevitably sense it.

Therefore, the Lord of the Black Prison’s breakthrough would definitely attract a large number of Authority Level Ancient Gods to interfere, sabotage, and obstruct him.

Lince even suspected that during the more than three hundred years he had spent devouring the Sun, that fellow, the God of Thousand Faces, might have witnessed a Deity’s ascension to a Pillar in some distant World Community.

It wasn’t just Lince who was suspicious.

The God of All Machines and the Mother of All Things were suspicious as well.

But that infuriating riddler, the God of Thousand Faces, just gave a strange smile and refused to give a direct answer.

Therefore, there were still many opportunities for the Four Gods to cooperate in the future.

They certainly wouldn’t start infighting lightly.

But no matter what, you could never be too careful. Now that Lince had powerful external support, the Three Gods of the Cosmos would surely grow tacitly closer.

"Using Authority Level offspring as a backup source of Power... only your Life Law makes that possible."

"A truly brilliant idea,"

the God of Thousand Faces said with a hint of admiration.

It was hard to tell if he was genuinely praising her or just being sarcastic.

"Hah! Thousand Faces, as if we don’t know each other perfectly well."

"Is your path of a thousand faces in any way weaker than mine?"

"It’s just a pity. A fellow who ascends to the Pillar Divine Realm using that method... who knows if they’ll end up a lunatic in the end?"

the Mother of All Things couldn’t help but sneer.

The God of All Machines glanced between the Mother of All Things and the God of Thousand Faces before saying calmly,

"Let’s all say a little less."

"I believe Nidhogg has been waiting for our news."

"Let us begin!"

At the God of All Machines’ words, the Mother of All Things and the God of Thousand Faces immediately composed their expressions.

Then, they nodded one after another.

"Then let’s begin!"

"Alright!"

"..."

「Void Star Sea, Titan territory.」

At this moment, upon a certain colonized planet, within the Star Realm.

The Titan stationed on this planet, who could be considered the planet’s nominal governor, a Main God Level Titan, was currently summoning many of the native Deities.

"The king of our Geluo Nebula’s Earth Realm has been summoned to crusade against the Dragon Race."

"To be safe, you are all to cease your indulgence in cultivation and Meditation for the time being."

"You must monitor all activity in the surrounding Star Sea. Do not allow any remnants of the Dragon Race or other lurking spies to find an opportunity to enter the mortal world and sow chaos."

"All the living beings raised in this world—their flesh and spirits—are the finest offerings for our race’s Ancestral Gods. If anything goes wrong, I’m sure you all know what that would mean."

The Main God Level Follower Titan looked down impassively at the thirty-odd Deities present.

In the grand scheme of the Star Sea, a Main God might not be much, but on this planet, this Main God Level Titan was undoubtedly the Crowned King.

All the enslaved Deities had to obey his commands.

Otherwise, with the Titans’ power to colonize planets and control the Mana Will, they could completely annihilate these enslaved native Deities in minutes.

Mortal-born Deities were, in the end, still just mortal-born Deities.

Once dead, if the Mana Will could no longer shelter them, then they were well and truly dead.

Other mortal creatures would naturally rise to take their place.

Thus, to the Titan Race, which held sway over several World Communities, these enslaved and even voluntarily subservient Deities were nothing more than insignificant consumables.

"We understand, Your Majesty."

"Rest assured, Your Majesty. We will absolutely not give any enemy an opportunity."

"..."

The gods answered crisply.

And yet?

Just as they had hastily concluded the audience and begun guarding the Mana Will’s Law Barrier from their respective positions, a sudden change occurred.

At the edge of the planet, a massive portal abruptly opened.

The portal was a swirling vortex.

The very instant it appeared, a horde of terrifying creatures suddenly poured out from within.

Why were they described as terrifying?

It was because these newly appeared creatures were monsters cobbled together from flesh and what looked like scrap Metal.

These monsters emanated a terrifying, grayish-black mist.

At the same time, the auras they exuded revealed that every single one of them was a being of a Deity’s rank.

"What are these things?"

"Do such terrifying and hideous lifeforms actually exist in the world?"

"No! Where in the world did these things come from?!"

"Enemy attack! They’re headed for His Majesty!!! Quick, stop them!!!"

"..."

The clamorous Star Realm quickly fell silent once more.

For a world guarded by only a single Main God Titan, how could its defenders possibly match the full might of the Three Gods of the Cosmos’ forces on the Star Realm battlefield?

At the end of the day, the Titans’ territory was simply too vast.

And all their Deities were spread too thin.

Caught in a sudden ambush like this, they had no real power to fight back.

And as this planet was falling, more than ten other Life Planets of varying energy levels within Titan territory were also being simultaneously attacked.

The war had begun.

Except, the ones who struck first were Lince and the Three Gods of the Cosmos.
