Alternate World: I Started With Two SSS Templates - Chapter 523
523 Times Have Changed
As a matter of fact, the tragic situation in the southeast battlefield had also shocked the rabbit-eared lady. However, as one of the ruling gods of the eastern barren, she did not panic, but she also knew that at this time, she had to find a way out.
The top forces of the eastern barren had not been damaged, but more than half of the core forces at the bottom had been lost. The current forces of the covenant of gods could hold the fort for one or two months, but she was not confident that they could last any longer than that.
What was even more terrifying was that she suspected that the enemies who had provoked the pact of gods in the eastern barren territory and the bloody disaster in the southern barbarians were now hiding in the city of the pact of gods. They were waiting for the Human Emperor and the others to arrive at the pact of gods to attack and break into the city.
If that really happened, the covenant of all gods would not be able to hold on.
!!
As a God, she would naturally not consider her own people, but herself.
That’s right, the first thing she considered was herself. Even if all her current divine beings were to die, it would not affect her strength at all. The power of faith was only used to increase her own strength, so the God of Darkness did not care about her current divine beings at all.
She only had to be concerned about her future.
As mentioned before, the power of faith was only used to improve one’s own strength. Even if she lost her current followers, after leaving the covenant of the gods, she could dominate a region with her strength and engage in divine wars with some weaker gods to directly obtain their followers.
Now that she had seen the Human Emperor Lin Xuan and sensed his terror, she could estimate the level of his strength. It would be difficult for her to fight against him alone.
Furthermore, once Lin Xuan occupied the eastern barren territory, the southern barbarian territory, and the northern lands, she would have no choice but to head to the central divine land. However, it was obvious that Lin Xuan would definitely make a move on the central divine land after he had taken over the eastern barren territory and the southern barbarian territory. She was not sure if it would be possible to encircle and annihilate the central divine land with the power of three provinces.
However, this was a matter for her future. Now, there was a rather urgent matter in front of her, and she had to make a choice! One that was preferably in her favor!
The fall of the covenant of the gods was inevitable, and if she did not want to become an ordinary beast and continue to maintain her status as a God, she had two choices.
One was to surrender to the Xia Dynasty in the North and become a sacred beast that protected the country like the demon dragon… To be honest, it was because of the success of the demon dragon that she had such thoughts.
The second was to bring some of the divine beings away and find a hidden place to hide. It was quite similar to hiding and forming a coop in the future.
There was nothing wrong with the first option, and there were more advantages to it. In the past, the demon dragon only enjoyed the faith from its own city. Now, the number of followers multiplied several times because of Lin Xuan, and there will be even more in the future. If she joined in, her strength would also improve very quickly. However, there was a disadvantage, and that was her own statues — she would go from a boss to an employee.
There were many problems with the second option. One of the most serious problems was that it would be impossible to have a lot of followers. After all, they will be hidden. Once the population gets too big, they would be easily discovered. However, the population also represented the power of faith…
After thinking about it, she still couldn’t make up her mind. It wasn’t easy to adjust her mentality from a boss to an employee. When she thought about how she would be ordered around by others, she shook her head. She would be going from a high and mighty God to a humble sacred beast that protected the country, how could she have the face to meet her old acquaintance?
However, if one’s strength was weak, it would be easy for them to be killed by others.
The current situation had fallen into a strange inner scroll environment. For some unknown reason, every God was working hard to increase the number of their own followers.
It was better to wait for the God of Light to return before making a decision.
…
The war in the southeast was no longer something that could be ended by the higher-ups if they wanted to. The blood feud between the divine beings and ordinary people had already affected the power of belief. When the gods absorbed the power of belief to cultivate, they had been inadvertently affected by the will of the divine beings and were blinded by hatred.
In the beginning, in order to divert their internal conflicts, the gods of the eastern barren fabricated the conflict with the southern barbarians. The gods were high and mighty, and they weaved a set of lies for everyone to hear. The followers believed them and passed it down from generation to generation. The power of faith emitted when they prayed was inadvertently mixed with hatred.
It couldn’t be reflected in normal times, and this kind of influence was only a subtle change. At this moment, the war in the southeast happened, and the thick blood and horrible scenes stimulated the gods of the eastern barren. The change in their souls finally accumulated from quantitative change to qualitative change.
It was the Curse of Faith!
This was the first time that a God’s citizen had changed into a God.
The gods of the eastern barren territory, led by the God of Light, were now holding a meeting to discuss the actions after the battle in the southeast.
The war in the southeast was what the southern barbarians wanted to engage in, but the eastern barren did not want to. Although the cause was that the southern barbarians had killed the priest with a spear, many of the southern barbarians had predicted the eastern barren people’s prediction and started the war first.
Now, the southern barbarians had gone through a big battle and had enough. They had sent people to negotiate for peace. Well, in their opinion, the little b*stards of the eastern barren were very afraid of death so they assumed that they would definitely agree.
What they did not expect was that this group of desolate beast gods had a huge change.
[Skill: Curse of Faith]
[Type: Mutated faith]
[Effect: Affect the mind of the target and generate hatred toward a certain group of people. After killing a specific group of people, your power will increase. If you don’t kill a specific group of people for a day, you will feel physical and mental pain, and the pain can be stacked.]
After the appearance of the Curse of Faith, the God of Light and the other gods of the eastern barren were very clear about the effect of the curse. After all, it was not imposed on them by others, but it was from the subtle influence of the power of faith.
In the temporary meeting room of the gods, the gods of the eastern barren looked very bad, because the previous war was not what they wanted to fight at all. They wanted to retreat, but the southern barbarians wanted to fight. If they retreated, they would also suffer heavy losses. It was better to fight back, and the result had led them to this state.
Now southern barbarians wanted peace?!
One of the gods’ expressions was cold and he half-raised his head. He was in a bad mood, partly because of the Curse of Faith and partly because of the peace negotiations of the southern barbarians.
They have a good motive, but unfortunately, it will be rejected!
For a time, the other gods echoed one after another.
Now that things had changed, it was not up to the southern barbarians to decide whether to fight!!
It was time for them to receive the wrath of the gods?
