Chapter 1203: Chapter 823: These Outsiders Really Don’t Follow the Rules (Part 2)
The Evil God of the Abyss departed.
The three-headed hound left the battlefield; even after leaving, its three heads were still muttering to each other.
"Such a hassle, young Gods just don’t understand the rules. Everyone could’ve just set off some fireworks, but he actually brought out the real stuff. Can’t stand it."
"Exactly. But he’s never dealt with me before, so let’s forgive him this time. Next time, have those meatheads who only know how to hack and slash come instead. The guy over there doesn’t look normal either."
"Really can’t figure it out—one True God after another, all more insane than an Evil God like me."
"I hadn’t even started exerting myself yet."
"Shut up."
"Idiot."
On the original battlefield.
The layered space, under Kana’s control, was released from its fold, reconnecting to the real 1121st-layer battlefield in an instant.
The Magic Power piled up in the interstice space erupted in a single moment.
It immediately swept across the entire battlefield, even washing out the eternally dim color of the sky.
For a fleeting instant they could almost see blue sky and white clouds.
But that was nothing more than a hallucination under the Impact of high-density Magic Power; the surge made the concentration of Magic Power in the surrounding space shoot up to an extreme, almost viscous level.
Before these wounded could even react, in the sky, the Iron Flower Structure began operating rapidly, the petals floating around the central sphere spinning.
Huge amounts of viscous Magic Power were absorbed and converted, and in an instant the entire Iron Flower Structure seemed to brighten by a notch; the Magic patterns spreading across it all turned radiant.
The residual waves of Magic Power left behind by the battle between the two Gods in the space were a terrifying existence.
But that was only for the instant they emerged.
Once Kana came out, he immediately hurled the layered space into the Abyss.
The influence contained within wasn’t just a simulated concentration; it also held all sorts of Rule-mixed Power.
A single misstep could cause issues in the surrounding land—let alone that this was Abyss territory; chaos was exactly what the other side wanted to see.
In battles between Gods, the Power of their Rules is like radiation, affecting vast areas around them.
Only regions like the Blood Battle Battlefield can allow Lifeforms to fight freely, unleashing their Power.
In other areas, there will always be some concerns.
Inside and outside the fortress below, countless pairs of eyes had been locked tightly onto that "transparent battlefield" the entire time.
When they saw that terrifying three-headed Giant Beast let out an inexplicable roar and then "actively retreat"—and combined it with what they’d seen before: Kana unmoving under the lava Impact, the poisonous breath dissolved, the Soul Attack ignored, and finally, Kana raising his hand to unleash annihilation while the Demon Evil God "fled in panic"!
Wah——!!!
After a brief dead silence, a mountain-crashing, sea-roaring cheer of wild joy surged through the entire Blood Pit Fortress like a tsunami, even echoing far away to the observation posts of the Blood War Fortress.
"We won! The Leader won!"
"Gods above! He drove off the Abyss Evil God!"
"Look at that devil retreating! It must’ve been scared stiff by the Leader!"
"Long live the Night Watchers! Long live the God of Salvation!"
The Avengers hugged each other in excitement, the post-disaster ecstasy mixing with reverence for the miracle.
The Avengers may gladly die in battle, but to be erased by a God’s stray aftershock or casually swatted aside by a God—that’s something they can’t accept.
The despair Suppression brought by that three-headed hound now turned into fuel for their victory.
Kana’s prestige in their hearts instantly soared to an unshakable height.
The Night Watch Soldiers, though disciplined to the bone, now also had eyes filled with the light of frenzy and faith, fists clenched, shouting silently.
They of course knew Kana had undergone Ascension to Divinity.
They’d even known for quite some time, but the problem was that after Ascension to Divinity, Kana had rarely appeared in public. Though everyone fully understood, they still felt it a pity.
This was Kana, after all.
Leader of the Night Watchers, the brightest star in the world; his deeds were something almost every young person had to learn about.
Because they were so Legendary.
And Kana’s personality was extremely proud as well, yet no one had ever criticized him on that front.
Not even former opponents and enemies.
Within the Night Watchers, Kana’s prestige was beyond doubt.
If Kana ordered them to destroy the world on the spot, they would take it as part of his plan.
But ever since he became a God—
It was very hard to see him again.
Let alone witnessing him fight. Now, standing this close, they had watched the battle scene of their former Leader after becoming the Lamp God.
Words couldn’t describe how excited they were.
Soon they’d be bragging about it on the channels, becoming objects of envy among the masses.
Raelia, Grey Fang and the others also breathed a sigh of relief. They glanced at each other and saw shock in one another’s eyes, along with a deeper understanding of Kana’s Power.
Abis whispered to Raelia, "Sis... do you really have any hope?"
She of course knew Raelia also held the wish for Ascension to Divinity.
At this stage, among the core members with the will for Ascension to Divinity, aside from the inevitable Alyris, there were only Raelia and Bobo.
Abis had never seen Kana fight before; now that she had, she’d gained some notions about Gods—and she couldn’t help wondering: can her sister really do it?
It wasn’t that she lacked faith in her sister, but that this sort of goal seemed just a bit too outrageous.
Perhaps only after the threat of the Void was resolved, after they escaped the doomsday crisis, would Raelia stand a chance of ascending to Godhood.
Put simply, she felt her sister could only grind it out with time.
"No problem at all, hm hm."
Raelia seemed utterly unconcerned, clenching her fist and giving it a light swing.
High above the battlefield, Kana slowly dispersed the annihilation core condensed in his hand and the puppet projection behind him.
His Silver-white arms calmed, the dark red patterns fading away.
The data-streaming golden eyes swept over the boiling fortress below and the distant battlefield, neither joy nor sorrow in them.
He clearly "heard" those cheers and misjudgments, but he didn’t care.
The clash with Cerberus had been only a probe, but he had already obtained the most precious "data" he wanted—on the energy operation mode of an Abyss Evil God, the manifestation traits of its Rules, and the junction between its combat instinct and will.
Every collision further refined his [Abyss God Body Model].
Amidst cheers and dust-choked scorched earth, Kana’s figure slowly descended.
The first incursion of the Abyss Evil God had been repelled.
The sky above the Blood Pit Fortress remained bathed in the orderly radiance emitted by the Iron Flower Device.
But this was only temporary calm.
The ulcer of the Abyss still stubbornly rooted itself here.
Wave after wave of Impact, battle after battle, would be the eternal theme of this place—until the Blood Pit Fortress vanished, or until this Blood Battle plane itself ceased to exist.
When the data-stream glow faded from his eyes—
After Kana returned to his normal Status, that rejecting, icy emotion finally began to recede.
"Mm... still need more honing. I still can’t keep the cold rationality brought by Datafication suppressed when my Power is fully unleashed."
Though in combat, the buffs that this rationality brought were utterly unquestionable.
But that total coldness was not what he wanted, because it might lead to irreversible actions on the battlefield.
Kana would never wait for a problem to appear before addressing it; by then it would be too late. Once he discovered such an issue, it had to be resolved as quickly as possible.
"That dog’s a slacker. You really find these types everywhere."
Kana recalled this with some helplessness.
Though it had made the confrontation and battle much lighter, it also meant the data Kana collected remained only on the surface.
Looks like he’d have to find a way to actively provoke the Abyss.
Only by actively provoking the Abyss could he draw Divine Level combat Power to appear here.
It wasn’t that Kana was unwilling to fight Abyss Evil Gods elsewhere, but that battling in a place like this allowed him to make full use of his Data Rule and obtain more information.
Otherwise he’d have to be out of his mind to stay in the Blood Pit Fortress and this overlapping space all the time.
It was simply that he had no better option.
Otherwise he’d just head straight to the frontal battlefield and go for a life-or-death brawl with those Abyss Evil Gods on the spot.
That would be much easier than this.
