I, The Dragon Overlord - Chapter 518
Chapter 518 – God Louie, the Human Gods Fear You More!
The one who appeared in front of Louie was a rough and buff man in full body armor with only his head exposed. The armor had a pure silver color that overflowed with divine power. At a glance, anyone could tell that this was a powerful divine equipment. In his hands was a two-handed sword that was filled with the power of war.
It was fortunate that Louie was a dragon. After ascending, his body which had been transformed by the Terran Civilization had also been improved. His dragon scales were his armor and his teeth, claws, and tail were his weapons. Although they don’t possess strange abilities like other divine equipment, they had the characteristic of being indestructible, so there was no difference in equipment between Louie and the gods.
Generally, creating high-class divine weapons was also extremely difficult for the gods. Each divine weapon was unique. As a result, those newly promoted true gods did not possess high-class divine weapons and only had mass-produced divine weapons. Only ancient gods had the right to possess powerful weapons.
Although there were some high-class divine weapons that fallen gods left behind on the main continent, divine weapons forged by others may not necessarily be suitable for them and may not even increase their fighting power. On the contrary, it could even weaken them.
Thus, those masterless high-class divine equipment could only be used by mortals and be degraded. The true weapons of the gods were those forged by the gods themselves with omnipotent divine power.
“Your Highness Marzalis, although I did consider you joining, you had the lowest probability. I indeed did not expect that you would be the one who joins hands with His Highness Gorsh and His Highness Chauntea!”
Louie exhaled as he felt that things had developed to the point that he did not want to see. Marzalis’ appearance caused Louie’s heart to sink. This would probably be the biggest crisis he was about to face.
At the moment, Louie’s godhood was at level 12 and he could create six incarnations. However, six incarnations even with the power of faith would not be able to deal with this many gods. Even if he was willing to use divine power to shorten the creation time of his incarnations, he could not crush these gods like a tide.
The main reason lay with the basic rules of godhood. Louie’s current enemies were Gorsh, Marzalis, and Chauntea. These three gods were at least level 12 and had sufficient faith. In total, these three gods would have eighteen incarnations. Although these incarnations would not be able to kill all of Louie’s incarnations, they only needed to stall for time.
The remaining incarnations of these gods were lurking on the side, waiting for the arrival of Louie’s allies. The main goal of the three gods was not to fight and kill Louie, but to protect the Obsidian King so that he could ascend without problems. In this way, Louie was like hitting cotton, where his efforts were in vain.
Louie knew that the three gods were waiting. As the oldest gods, each of them knew how difficult it was to cause the gods to fall, so they patiently waited for the Obsidian King to ascend. When Louie’s divine authority tore apart, he would be at his weakest and they could deal the finishing blow.
The battle now was a race against time to see if Louie could kill the Obsidian King or if the Obsidian King could ascend.
Once Louie’s divine authority was torn, the purpose of these gods would be complete. Louie would lose the chance of being able to become a high-tier god. This meant that Louie wouldn’t be able to create new dragons. Without this ability, the blueprints he had gained from the Intelligent Brain would be useless. If he couldn’t mass-produce dragons, he would not be able to raid the Abyss continuously. If he couldn’t raid the Abyss, then the efficiency of gaining the approval of the Origin of Order would take longer, thus causing a setback to his plan on becoming the god of gods. 6444
This was a chain reaction that involved only one hair and traveled to the rest of the body.
“Hahaha!!! It’s normal for Your Highness Louie to be puzzled. Normally, gods would not think that His Highness Gorsh and I would work together. We are both at war with our divine authorities on the line. He wants to kill me, and I want to kill him. One of us must die for the divine authority of war to become one. Only then can one of us take the next step.”
Marzalis spoke in a deep voice.
This God of war might have been a powerful god, but in truth, his godhood at his peak was at level 16, which was the same as the Goddess of Love and Beauty.
The main reason for this was that Marzalis only had about 40% of the divine authority of war. This was less than half of the divine authority. Reaching level 16 with only that much was already the limit of what he could do along with the support of various auxiliary divine authorities.
The remaining divine authority of war was scattered among the many races, but these fragments were extremely small. As long as Gorsh or Marzalis killed the other, then the rest of the divine authority was as good as theirs.
Gorsh had been able to reach level 18 and even approach level 19 godhood. The main reason for this was because he had the divine authority of beastmen as his main divine authority. However, both Gorsh and Marzalis had always treated each other as their greatest enemy and wanted to kill each other with everything they had.
This was why Louie was surprised to see them work together.
“Your Highness Louie, you need not be surprised. I am the God of War and war is all I desire. If there are no wars in the world, then my power will be weakened. Only when a great war starts can my power be pushed to its peak.”
Marzalis’s short sentence was enough to make Louie understand his reason for joining forces with Gorsh.
“You are going to start a war between humans and beastmen with His Highness Gorsh?!”
Louie asked in a low voice.
“That’s right. Only when humans and beastmen carry out a large-scale war will my power grow rapidly. That way, both of us could easily reach high-tier divine power in a short amount of time. However, your existence has become the reason why beastmen and humans could not carry out a war!”
Marzalis shouted in a low voice.
The war gods of the beastmen and humans were both longing for war. It was because of this that they temporarily joined hands to eradicate Louie, the obstruction of war.
Because of the location of Louie’s Dragon Kingdom, the beastmen did not dare start a war against humans, because it was easy for the beastmen to be surrounded. As a result, if the beastman god wanted to initiate the aggression, the only way was to destroy Louie’s power.
“You are not the only God of War. His Highness Gorsh will also quickly become stronger. Your Highness Marzalis, do you think you can win against him when both of you are going to become strong simultaneously?”
Louie questioned.
“Of course not. I admit that there is a power gap between His Highness Gorsh and me, but that gap is very small. With the overall strength of humans surpassing that of the beastmen, I will be able to borrow the power of the human gods once the war starts. This will allow me to narrow that gap to nothing. It will even allow me to overtake him!”
Marzalis shouted with a majestic aura.
“Are you not afraid of the human gods’ revolt if you use them like this?”
Louie once again asked drily.
“This is thanks to you, your Highness Louie. In the history of the ancient world, the beastmen have never really exterminated the human race, and never even gained a complete victory in the battle with humans. So the human gods are not afraid of the aggression of the beastmen.”
“But you are different. Your Kingdom has more than ten million people. Under the influence of your policy, these ten million people may no longer believe in human gods but believe in a god like you. Ten million people is not a small number. You bring human gods far more losses than beastmen. You should be proud of yourself because the human gods fear you more than the beastman gods!”
This time, it was not Marzalis who answered Louie, but another god who appeared beside him. This god looked like a young man about twenty years of age. He had a refined and gentle appearance in contrast to the violent God of War.
“Let me introduce you, this is my subordinate god, the God of Strategy Anhur!”
