Chapter 818: Mordor Strait (2)
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“We have no other choice.” Sebastian and Monica nodded.
None of them noticed that the figure of the “divine being” in the painting cast a glance toward them.
Ji Chen slowly opened his eyes, a trace of peculiarity flashing in them.
As an entity capable of gathering believers’ faith power, he could sense part of the believers’ situation through the power of faith.
Julius in Lienhardt, along with Sebastian, Monica, and the others on the Northern Continent, appeared to have already detected the Oceanic Faith’s movements.
However, he couldn’t keep this hidden for much longer, particularly among nations and factions that held strong religious beliefs in gods. Their response would likely be even more pronounced.
Ji Chen’s activities of the Oceanic Faith were currently limited to the Mid Ocean and coastal areas because these places had the soil for preaching. There wasn’t a fisherman, sailor, or maritime merchant who could refuse a god who could protect them and ensure their safe voyage.
In this respect, even revered deities such as the Goddess of Light, the Lord of Stars, and the Elven Mother Goddess couldn’t rival the influence of his Oceanic Faith.
If those ordinary gods’ beliefs only solved spiritual needs, then Ji Chen’s faith simultaneously solved spiritual and material needs, with tangible benefits.
Furthermore, the Oceanic Faith’s believers had a broad foundation. Not only humans but also elves, dwarves, goblins, and even marine races could show faith. There were no restrictions on race or nationality.
The broader the base of potential believers, the easier the expansion would be, and the stronger his power would become after becoming a god.
This was also one of his advantages.
After saving the fallen starlight god Nora, Ji Chen also obtained a lot of information about the current situation of the orderly gods from her.
There was a considerable difference from previous speculations. After the unsealing of the dark gods, the orderly gods were caught off guard, and the divine realms of multiple orderly gods were breached, resulting in heavy losses.
Now, most of the orderly gods relied on their own divine realms to support each other in attacking and defending against the dark gods, making it difficult to pay attention to everything happening in the main world.
And it seemed that the dark gods were also aiming for this purpose: to occupy enough time for demons to invade the main world, eradicate the foundation of orderly faith, and thus achieve the complete destruction of orderly gods.
But from another perspective, if a large number of evil races like demons, who believed in dark gods, could be cleared, it would also achieve the goal of weakening the dark gods.
Considering this approach, Ji Chen decided not to sit idly by and continue to take the initiative, turning his gaze to the Decay Lord in the Western Continent.
Ji Chen set off with the giant turtle and the army secretly, without attracting anyone’s attention.
In the Mordor Strait.
Heartwing demons filled the skies, while massive floating warships dominated the sea surface, and numerous aquatic demon patrols lurked beneath the waves.
Hundreds of places diagonally above had been occupied by the Decay Lord since the invasion of demons.
The Mordor Strait, originally an important route for commercial trade between the Western and Southern Continents, was now already occupied by a stench – corroded soil. The cities on both sides of the strait had become a paradise for demons, with towering demonic war buildings, terrifying and terrifying.
This was the headquarters of the Decay Legion’s attack on the Western Continent, and the defense was naturally extremely tight.
However, not a single demon knew that hundreds of meters beneath their perception and line of sight, a giant turtle was carrying war structures and tens of thousands of troops, slowly swimming through the seabed, swaggering through the alert line.
Lurking beneath the sea.
Ji Chen stood in front of the tower, with two columns of heroes of the Crown of the Ocean in front of him, and further away were tens of thousands of Crown of the Ocean troops.
To ensure that this time they could destroy the headquarters of the Decay Legion in one fell swoop, he basically mobilized all the elites of his territory.
Krakens, Alice, Herald-
Divine Ocean Crystal Wyvern, Naga Iron Colossus…
All elites were deployed for this decisive battle.
As the scheduled attack time gradually approached, Ji Chen looked at everyone, his tone decisive.
“Launch the attack!”
The quiet Mordor Strait suddenly exploded, and the troops of the Crown of the Ocean broke through the water, spraying attacks all over the sky, killing demons in droves, and destroying war structures.
Powerful heroes killed the demons who reacted.
The claws roared, the song wept blood, the dragon’s breath filled the sky, the sword light left no trace, and the divine arrows flew like lightning.
Patheia swung her long sword, effortlessly cutting down dozens of demons rushing towards her with the flickering of her blade. Then, spreading her wings, she transformed into a shadow and soared towards a nearby demon hero.
The huge demon head flew high, the cold face showing no emotional fluctuations, continuing to search for the next target.
In the continuous honing and battles, after Ji Chen used the Military Talent Tree to increase the potential upper limit of Patheia, she soon broke through to the legendary tier, and her swordsmanship became even more exquisite and terrifying.
Even when facing three demons of the same level, she was not inferior.
Alice’s singing was irresistible even to the most evil demons, who turned into soul puppets one after another, wielding their knives against their comrades, and even some low-level demon heroes went crazy and slaughtered their own kind.
Elisya was no longer hiding among the Crown of the Ocean. Riding on an agile Divine Ocean Crystal Wyvern, she drew her bow, and every shot brought down a high-level demon.
[Meteor Arrow Shower (Orange Skill, unleashes a large-scale group arrow rain covering a range of thousands of meters, each wave of arrows totaling ten waves of elemental arrow rain, containing different elemental properties)]
Each wave of Meteor Arrow Shower was like a colorful downpour, leaving behind enemy corpses covered in arrows.
Group skills and single-target skills were alternately used.
[One Strike Through the Stars (Orange Skill, launches a highly penetrating elemental arrow with a 1000% increase in penetration, accompanied by armor penetration, heavy injury, and locking properties, containing a certain chance of fatal effect)]
Under this ultimate skill, even legendary demons were killed with a single blow, yielding the most results.
This sudden raid caught the Decay Legion off guard. The main forces of the Decay Legion were basically engaged in frontline combat, leaving only over ten thousand demons at the headquarters.
With just over ten thousand demons, facing the Crown of the Ocean troops who had taken the elite route to the extreme, they immediately showed a trend of defeat upon contact, with about seventy to eighty thousand casualties in just half an hour.
Demon corpses were everywhere, but casualties among the Crown of the Ocean troops were few.
Under relentless destruction, the war structures built by demons at great cost collapsed one after another, and a large amount of supplies destined for the frontline turned into ashes in a sea of fire.
Just as the battle was nearing its end.
A pitch-black cloud suddenly flew in from the north, and a demon with two feet and four hands, with wings on its back, appeared from the clouds. Looking at the Mordor Strait engulfed in flames, there was both joy and anger in its eyes.
The joy was that the Lord of Glory attacked here with his army, and the anger was that he didn’t expect the attack to be so fierce. The army he left here for defense turned out to be so vulnerable, almost completely wiped out in just half an hour.
But it didn’t matter, as long as they killed that Lord of Glory, then everything would be worth it.
The Decay Demon Lord’s eyes shifted slightly, quickly focusing in the distance on Ji Chen, standing with his hands behind his back on a Crystal Dragon. He decisively unleashed the trump card he had prepared long ago.
“Please, gods, descend and kill this man!”
The sky darkened.
The sky cracked open, and five streams of black smoke quickly merged into the container that the Decay Demon Lord had prepared for a long time.
The five dark gods’ divine bodies merged, suddenly erupting into a storm like an avalanche, everything around was lifted, leaving behind bodies slowly opening their eyes.
The Decay God, Intermediate God.
The Sinister God, Intermediate God.
The Fury God, Lesser God.
The Mighty Strength God , Lesser God.
The Master of Hell, Intermediate God.
The five dark gods descended upon the world at the same time, with the sole purpose of killing Ji Chen and destroying this human who posed a great threat to the dark side!
