Chapter 821: Authority Allocation
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
That human actually won?
The five dark gods actually lost?
Even though they were just five incarnations of the gods, the scene of Ji Chen standing tall in the world still made them feel incredibly horrified.
The Lord of Decay was already consumed by fear, his mind swirling with confusion, unwillingness, and disbelief at the present circumstances.
How could a human defeat five god-possessed incarnations?
It was like the first god war tens of thousands of years ago when the God of the Ocean fought against several dark gods, and the current situation was so similar.
But this human had accomplished the feat of fighting five on his own. How amazing.
Not only were the five god incarnations he painstakingly crafted completely wiped out but his carefully designed traps were also shattered.
Infinite resentment surged in his heart.
Why could this human possess three authorities and rival the gods?
It should be noted that he had been in this world for less than two years, whereas he had struggled to survive in the chaotic abyss, a hellish place, for thousands of years before he reached this state today.
It took him a thousand years to grow from a humble lesser demon to a bottomtier demon, then another thousand years to gradually establish himself, followed by another thousand years to rise from a bottom-tier demon to a high-tier demon.
Finally, it took him twice as long as before to achieve his current position as a demon king.
He had endured inhuman torture and suffering, and experienced countless bloody battles and vicious conspiracies, just to get to where he was now.
But despite all that, he didn’t even have one authority, not even one!
The twisted mind of the Lord of Decay became even more twisted at this moment, wishing to kill Ji Chen with his own hands.
However, when he inadvertently met Ji Chen’s eyes, which were filled with a hint of killing intent, he suddenly sobered up.
His hands and feet turned cold.
The anger, resentment, and frustration that filled his heart dissipated like a deflated balloon in an instant, and then he fled without looking back.
But before he could escape far, one thunderbolt after another struck him down, annihilating his body and soul together into ashes.
The Lord of Decay among the five demon kings was dead!
Other demons finally collapsed at this sight, fleeing in all directions, and the Ocean Crown Legion once again entered the scene, slaughtering these demons who had completely lost their will to fight.
Ji Chen just watched indifferently, without intervening, focusing his attention on the five orbs floating not far away, remnants left behind after the defeat of the five incarnations of the gods.
He beckoned them over, each floating in front of him.
The five orbs were of different colors, each emitting different fluctuations, some faintly murmuring words, some burning flames inside, and some had no prominent features at all.
Ji Chen concentrated, carefully sensing it, and soon a look of realization dawned in his eyes.
These were all incomplete authorities, more accurately, they were part of the authorities of the five god-possessed incarnations.
The five god incarnations were specially made to contain a part of the power of the gods, which naturally included the power of authority.
Perhaps it was because Ji Chen’s combined power of three authorities was too powerful, the instant eruption of power far exceeded their imagination, causing the five dark gods to be destroyed before they could withdraw from the god incarnations, leaving behind some of their power.
These five orbs were respectively a part of the Decay Authority, Inferno Authority, Sinister Tongue Authority, Fury Authority, and Gigantic Force Authority.
After Ji Chen figured it out, he couldn’t help but feel a bit of surprise.
Even if the authorities were incomplete, they were still authorities, the most top-tier power in the world, second only to complete authorities.
More importantly, these were taken from the dark gods, so their authority was no longer complete, resulting in a significant decrease in their power.
This might be good news for the orderly gods.
As for how to deal with these five incomplete authorities, he didn’t intend to occupy them himself. Honestly, he looked down on these somewhat evil and dark types of authorities.
Whether it was the authority of the ocean, thunder, or storm, they were either orderly powers or natural forces. The cost of absorbing these incomplete versions was too great, and the power that could be obtained was too little.
Obviously, the cost-effectiveness was higher for Alice and the others.
After a moment of contemplation, he gradually began to consider.
The Inferno Authority could spray flames that burned both the body and soul, which would greatly enhance Benbo’s power when mixed with dragon breath.
The Sinister Tongue Authority could enchant the mind with evil language, and manipulate the body, and it was a power that was extremely compatible with Anina.
The Gigantic Force Authority could crush enemies with pure strength, primitive, direct, simple, and violent, extremely suitable for Anina’s positioning.
The Fury Authority could disturb the formation of enemies by using the emotions deep within every living being, invisible and intangible, suitable for Herald’s straightforward style.
Soon, four authorities had found their owners. As for the last one, the Decay Authority, Ji Chen hesitated a bit, unsure who to give it to among the heroes.
Kraken already had the Decay Authority, and he hadn’t fully mastered it yet. Having another Decay Authority would just be icing on the cake, not very meaningful, and none of the other heroes were particularly compatible with this authority.
After thinking for a moment, Ji Chen decided to temporarily set it aside for preservation.
The battle below quickly ended, and the demons who had lost their will to fight were soon slaughtered, adding another achievement to the Crown of the Ocean.
He called the heroes over one by one and bestowed the authorities upon them. The rewarded heroes were all overjoyed, but they accepted them without any hesitation.
Their primary desire, standing behind the unquestionably loyal lord, was to elevate their own power, ensuring they kept pace with the lord, as none wished to lag behind their allies or adversaries.
