Cthulhu Gonfalon

Chapter 946: Horror of Horrors

The battle between the human gods and the Orc gods once again started up in another piece of void. More accurately, the battle between the human gods and the full Orc allied troops had begun once again.

In evaluating the war, if one were to view it in terms of numbers, the Orcs’ side definitely had the advantage.

Many fallen gods’ disciples were all present, and the elders and friends of the god system were all present as well. More importantly, the God Kingdom was still present and the Oracles within were still present as well. Under such circumstances, once their god’s powers were restored, resurrection of the fallen gods would not be difficult. It just required a period of time and a certain degree of Divine Power, and one simply needed to pick between seizing an Oracle or taking over an Oracle.

From the previous big battle till now, three days had already passed. Among the fallen gods, other than a portion of the Orc gods who were unable to resurrect, most had already done so. They had brought along their own Oracles and demigods, creating a huge gathering of manpower and looked rather formidable.

It was just a pity that they were all pale-faced and had tense expressions on their faces, which reduced the formidability of their numbers. It was like they were surrounded or facing some undefeatable beast, with the look of death on all their faces!

On the other hand, on the side of the humans, although they were disadvantaged in terms of numbers, they had high morale and spirits. They were all smiling and laughing, discussing how they wanted to celebrate their upcoming victory in this war.

Although the humans’ side only had about a hundred people as compared to the tens of thousands on the Orcs’ sides, in terms of morale, they were the exact opposite.

“How weird!” Sui Xiong shook his head as he looked at this battle from afar.

This time, other gods such as Arcaian had also taken part, but the gods on the side of the Orcs were all mostly clones. If a clone was destroyed, a god would not fall. This was why Sui Xiong could relax as he did not need to care about Arcaian’s safety and could watch the battle in peace.

Beside Sui Xiong, the God of Justice, Yorgaardman, was also observing the battle. His expression was a little complicated and was some parts joyful, some parts moved and some parts anxious.

Because of his priesthood, he could not enter this war that was not about right and wrong. Nevertheless, the God of Justice was still a human and would definitely be happy that the humans would become the main race on the Main Plane if they won this war.

“The humans’ victory should be secured now,” the God of War, Wenner, who was on the other side of Sui Xiong, commented. “I can’t see any possibility of the Orcs winning this at all.”

Sui Xiong nodded as he thought so too.

Although the Orcs had strength in numbers and several Divine Powers, there was only one actual Divine Power with his main body present. This was Wild Beast Trevor. This fellow was the Orcs’ God of Madness and was considered an elder in the Orc God System. It was just that his mind was rather bipolar now. Sometimes, he was fine. In war, however, he often went crazy when fighting and would rush wherever the enemy was without any care for war strategies or planning.

This could be seen from his priesthood as well. As one of the oldest mad Orcs, Trevor was already someone who was a little insane from the start. Once he became a god, he became the protector of all the mad Orcs, and all his disciples were either war-crazy or mad soldiers themselves. Such a divinity was really not too useful.

Other than this one Divine Power, the Orcs’ side also had two ancestor Orcs. Combined together, they had about enough power to fight normal Divine Powers. With these three people combined together, it was just nice to reach the level of a large god system. Apart from these three Divine Powers, the Orcs also had several clones of Divine Powers. In total, they had about the power of six to seven Divine Powers.

With such powers against the combination of the God of Light, the God of Vagrants and the God of Protection, however, Sui Xiong could not find any possibility of them winning. The God of Light alone was enough to fight the three combined.

Although clones of Divine Powers appeared to be at the Divine Power level, they still were much weaker as compared to their original bodies. The difference lay in the effectiveness. The main body of a Divine Power was able to use powers of Divine Power level, but the clones could not. Even with added strength, they could only utilize Divine Power in sporadic waves occasionally.

In such a war, this difference could mean a distinction between life and death.

“Actually, whether the Orcs can make a comeback or not depends entirely on their three Divine Powers. If the three Divine Powers die, they will lose immediately,” the God of War, Wenner, said slowly as he observed both sides. “If I were Wuther, I would launch a surprise attack to kill the three, leaving only easy targets that I could easily clear later.”

Sui Xiong nodded. If he were Wuther, he would probably choose to do the same.

The God of Light, however, did not do so. He simply led the human gods and coldly faced the giant Orc coalition troops without any obvious intent to attack.

It was clear that he was fully confident and thus was not in a hurry to take action.

“I have a question.” Before starting the war, the Orcs’ God of Knowledge, an ancient Foxman opened his mouth. “If the humans win this war, what do you plan to do?”

The God of Light had glared at him coldly and answered, “We’ll address that after we win.”

“If we Orcs win, we will request that at least half of the humans leave the Main Plane. Your race will also have to give up at least three-quarters of your territory,” the Orcs’ God of Knowledge pressed on. “How about you?”

The God of Light ignored him, and the human God of Diplomacy replied instead, “Our leader has already spoken! We will announce our intentions after we win the war.”

“Does this mean that the terms set out by the humans will be even more vicious?” the Orcs’ God of Knowledge continued to speak. “For example, will you chase out every other race off the Main Plane apart from humans?”

The God of Diplomacy laughed coldly. “All of you are about to die, and you are still here overthinking. Our leader has already given orders and in today’s battle, the other god systems and other gods do not matter. All you Orc gods, however, will be killed by us! Let us end the long-term conflict the humans and Orcs have had today for once and for all!”

The Orcs’ God of Knowledge seemed to have more to say, but the God of Light had already put on his helmet coldly and raised his sword.

“Attack!” He bellowed loudly and rushed towards the Orc troops at the speed of light.

Seeing as the God of Light was rushing towards them, even if the Orcs’ God of Knowledge wanted to continue speaking, it was too late.

The only present Divine Power of the Orcs, Wild Beast Trevor, roared similarly and, like a red giant beast, rushed towards the beam of light that was the God of Light.

At the same time, two giants opened their eyes in the far corners of the Orc troops.

Once the ancestor gods of the Orcs had fallen, six giant beasts had been born amongst their corps. All of them had the ability to defend the Divine Powers and were named “ancestor beasts.”

In the olden days, when the six big ancestor beasts were firstborn, the main god of the Human God System, the God of Knights, had come to find trouble. These ancestor beasts had not fully developed yet and were still in their youth. After a long-drawn battle, four out of the six ancestor beasts died, and the God of Knights had also suffered much damage to the point where he was still not fully recuperated now.

Among the four fallen ancestor beasts, the Giant Viper’s corpse had bred “Iron Mask Ferocious Spirit” Snakenell; Wild Beast Trevor and “Sky Devourer” Lefon had also consumed a part of Japanese dog’s body and had attained Divine Power strength from it. Infinite Serpent and Golden Chicken’s corpses had been used to build the Orcs’ God Kingdom, the Endless Field. The remaining Obituary Bird and Dead Dragon had been recuperating and waiting for the ultimate battle.

Now was the time for this very ultimate battle.

The giant ancestral beasts unfolded themselves and let out roars that scared every single god present.

The first to attack was Obituary Bird. It looked like a crow that had multiplied tremendously in size. Every one of its feathers had a dead aura, and he let out squawks like a crow. The piece of void suddenly had tinges of grey like a grey river, and it rushed directly towards Trevor and Wuther, who were battling intensely.

Following closely behind, Dead Dragon, who resembled a giant dragon skeleton, carried out a similar attack. Two paths of grey flowed together in parallel without fusing, rushing and gushing towards their targets.

Wuther’s abilities were definitely far better than that of Trevor’s, but Trevor had gone completely mad once the war had started. In a short period of time, his abilities had explosively increased and were comparable to Snakenell when he was slightly injured. Even with Wuther pulling out all stops, he was unable to directly kill Trevor with only one blow.

At this very moment, the two ancestral beasts arrived in front of Trevor and Wuther simultaneously. They seemed to ignore Trevor and looked as if they wanted to kill both Trevor and Wuther at the same time! Perhaps this was the war strategy of the Orcs, where Trevor could hold on to Wuther, and they would perish together.

Sacrificing one in war to achieve a greater good of killing the Great Devil, well, this was to be expected. Of course, the Great Devil had no intention of accommodating this goal.

Watching as the aura of death had flowed in front of him, Wuther smiled coldly, his left hand gripped a giant sword, and he used one blow to push aside Trevor. His right hand held out a war hammer to face the aura of death with one blow.

“Useless old thing, don’t waste your time and embarrass yourself!”

With the strike of the war hammer, it was like the aura of death had met with a giant dam. Intensive shockwaves rolled back, scaring every god on the side of the Orcs who quickly scattered. At the same time, the giant sword in Wuther’s right hand quickly changed from being big and brutal and soft and detailed. In a moment, it bypassed Trevor’s axe and hit him like an invisible wave in his chest.

Wild Beast Trevor, who was previously yelling and going mad, now went still.

“You have some skill, I’ll give you that,” Wuther turned around to glance at him with some form of admiration in his eyes. “It’s a pity you’re not human.”

Trevor did not reply, and his body slowly disintegrated, scattering in all directions...

On the other hand, the two ancestral beasts tried to absorb back the aura of death that were flowing out and were instead hit repeatedly, forcing them to stagger backwards. They required a breath’s time to gather themselves yet their bodies continued to vibrate, clearly showing their sustained damages.

The combined attack of the three Divine Powers failed miserably and ended here.

The God of Light, Wuther’s powers were truly horrifying and tremendous, causing everyone to be in awe and fearful of him at the same time!
