Chapter 104: The last miracle

It is not easy to lock onto a fast-moving Apostle.

Fortunately, Catalo is not a speed type. It carries the idol and is currently being delayed by negotiations with the Thane, so it is unintentionally hit by the majority of lightning strikes.

The range of damage overflow instantly empties Catalo’s health bar, and its brownish-yellow body shatters.

The symbol of "death" appears above its corpse.

The idol loses its carrier and comes to a stop.

Without the Apostle as a medium, the Thane can no longer make any sound, and the idol immediately reverts to an inanimate object.

Lu Yao now has enough time to deal with the idol.

He changes his strategy and slowly consumes the idol by alternating between lightning and scorching sun attacks.

Weak against me, a battle of attrition is the most stable strategy.

While the idol is resisting miracles, Jimmy seizes the opportunity to steal from the idol.

As a result, Lu Yao’s faith bar in the upper right corner keeps increasing.

+55

+11

+19

Lu Yao is more nervous than Jimmy himself.

He is afraid that if he is not careful, the snowman will be killed by the Thane.

The Thane has tried several times to predict the snowman’s position with lightning and hurricanes, but the snowman easily dodges them.

Equipped with the "Ghost White Horse" and "Traveler’s Boots," and with the "Sword of the Forest" status given by Isabella in advance, Jimmy’s movement speed has reached a terrifying 47 points.

The snowman, running at high speed, has become a white lightning that comes and goes without a trace, making it impossible for miracles to lock onto it. In the process of pulling and tugging with the idol, the snowman appears to be at ease and skilled.

Lu Yao gradually relaxes.

He further realizes the limitations of being an apprentice god - no matter how strong the firepower of faith is, it is useless if it cannot hit the enemy.

In a battle, the Apostle and heroes are particularly important.

Otherwise, it would be the current situation of the Thane.

Being pulled, toyed with, and plundered... Lu Yao can’t help but feel sorry just by watching.

The snowman makes the final move, revealing a paper-like prop.

Suddenly, the Thane’s idol trembles, and its whole body is shining with green light.

Lu Yao becomes alert.

The opponent is about to unleash a big move.

...

The Thane cannot understand.

Why would a god refuse a subordinate god who offers their faith?

This is completely harmless.

Even in the fragmented world, as long as one side offers the fire of faith, the merging of idols can create a divine palace, establishing a subordinate relationship between gods. Ordinary apprentice gods do not understand this; it is something they will only learn upon entering the Temple of Gods.

Under the power of the rules, subordinate gods cannot resist their superior gods.

Just like when the "Whistleblower" gives an order, even if it means self-damaging demotion, the Thane must comply.

This is the cruelty of the godly hierarchy.

Being subordinate to a powerful god, receiving the protection of the strong, and accepting their rule.

One criterion for evaluating the strength of gods is how many subordinate gods are in their divine palace.

Subordinate gods will always generate a continuous fire of faith, which the superior god can call upon whenever needed.

The Thane cannot understand.

The god who attacked them has a battle power that surpasses ordinary gods.

When the three Apostles under the opponent’s command appeared, the Thane immediately realized that they were no match.

One of them is the Blood Knight, a high-ranking hero created by the "Whistleblower" himself. Even though he is somewhat sealed in the fragmented world, he is still the top combat force in the shattered world.

The fact that the Blood Knight, who only knows how to follow orders, was forcibly subdued and turned into the opponent’s Apostle can only mean one thing.

The god to whom the Blood Knight now pledges loyalty has a more terrifying overwhelming power than his previous master. To the point that even the stoic and mechanical Blood Knight submits out of instinctual fear. Although this seems incredibly unbelievable.

The second is the snowman.

The Thane has never heard of such a bizarre and strange Apostle.

An Apostle that can directly steal the fire of faith from a god?

This subverts their previous understanding.

In the Thane’s eyes, the danger level of the snowman is much higher than that of the Blood Knight.

This thing is strange, too strange, it shouldn’t exist in this world.

The third is the "Skeleton King Qiu." This thing seems vaguely familiar and has a way of escaping that restrains the Thane, making them feel trapped.

In addition to these, there is also a fourth Apostle.

The Thane is very certain.

That Apostle must be lurking in the shadows, ready to launch a fatal blow at any moment. The "Sword of the Forest" above the snowman’s head can only come from that hidden figure.

With this analysis, the Thane feels a sense of despair.

Being chased and locked down by four high-level Apostles, the opponent does not give any chance.

What makes the Thane even more indignant is that the enemy god shows no intention of dialogue or surrender.

How arrogant and conceited!

Even if the "Whistleblower" defeated them, he was very polite and persuasive. The Thane would have been willing to join his divine palace and become a subordinate god.

The once timid and cautious Thane bursts forth with astonishing courage and fighting spirit in extreme frustration and oppression.

In this moment, the Thane feels like they have returned to many years ago.Back then, He was a fearless and valiant deity. Standing among the pantheon, He had always been forging ahead, never refusing any challenge from an equal opponent.

He wasn’t strong then, but He possessed a pride and spirit that was unafraid of failure.

When did He start to lose His ambitious will?

Was it the moment He was defeated by the Whistleblower?

Or was it when He entered the divine palace and found that everyone was stronger than Him?

Or was it just the long-suppressed fear and self-doubt that finally got released in the divine palace?

The Ribbon God didn’t know.

The only thing He knew was that facing that arrogant and powerful deity, under the tidal pressure and despair, He survived.

Even if it was just for a moment.

The Ribbon God felt that He had freed Himself from all fears and restraints, experiencing an unprecedented ease and pleasure.

You can destroy me, subdue me.

But you can’t take away my pride as a deity!

Now, this is no longer about the command of the Whistleblower, but a battle for His own dignity.

Thank you, unknown deity, you helped me find my past.

He sacrificed all His faith items, ignited the remaining fire of faith, and the statue burst into an unprecedented dazzling light.

The fire of faith created His last miracle for the world!

"Explosion!"

A dazzling white light bloomed, enveloping everything around.

...

The sudden self-destruction of the statue startled Lu Yao.

Fortunately, the explosion of the statue only affected a small area, and the powerful faith power burned the entire statue into ashes. The surrounding area was scorched into red and black chunks by the high temperature, and white smoke was rolling everywhere.

A reminder popped up on the screen.

"The faith of the Ribbon God has completely disappeared nearby, and His followers will start looking for a new deity."

Lu Yao was a bit stunned, not quite understanding what had happened.

But the Ribbon God was indeed annihilated.

So far, both invading foreign deities have been wiped out.

"Lord God, this is Jimmy’s harvest."

The snowman presented its spoils of war, which looked like two stickers stuck together.

...

"Short-range Portal LV4": Faith +2/hour, can open two short-range portals within the effective range of the same world for instant transmission. Only available for Apostles, Heroes, and Prophet units.

...

A portal?

Lu Yao hurriedly tried it out.

All three cities had temples, and the Apostles could arrive in an instant. The only tricky place was the island where the "Black Abyss" was located.

It took the Apostles quite a bit of time to get there each time.

Lu Yao tried to set up a portal and found that the distance was still a bit short.

One portal was fixed on the island where the "Black Abyss" was located, and the other couldn’t be directly opened on the western continent, but only on a small island to the east of Yao City.

Even so, this greatly shortened the Apostles’ commute time.

Lu Yao tested it out.

At the Blood Knight’s walking speed, from the Salt Pool to Yao City, then boarding the island and entering the Abyss, the whole process took only a minute.

This speed was acceptable.

After the portal was established, Yao City, Salt City, Sanilo, and the Abyss were all connected by an invisible high-speed channel. This completely solved the Apostles’ last-mile problem.

Lu Yao stretched lazily.

After a night of hard work, everything was finally in order.

The sky was already bright outside the window, and the sound of car horns could be heard on the street.

"Little Fire, cook me some noodles, with two cloves of garlic, and a soft-boiled egg."

"Yes, Lord God," the cactus replied respectfully.
