Chapter 422 Buried
Regardless of her inner thoughts, Analene simply sneered disdainfully. "As for that otherworldly being? Do you think I wouldn't be wary of him going back on his word? Unfortunately, he made a promise to the Okansele River under my witness—a rule that even gods cannot break. How could a human like him possibly escape the Okansele River's pursuit?"
The Ocean God, Ophelias, stared intently at the God of Love before him, the muscles in the corners of his eyes twitching. After a long pause, he snorted coldly, agreeing to Analene's proposal.
After all, they really don't have much time and even less choices.
"I can raise huge waves and force the new god to appear, Analene," the sea god's voice rumbled like thunder in the dark clouds, "but you also have to do something."
"No matter what method you use." His voice was extremely gloomy. "I want the New God to watch helplessly as the humans he loves are crushed into powder before his eyes!"
"How cruel," Analene said, covering her mouth and feigning indignation. "Do you still remember that he is my 'chosen one'?"
Before Poseidon could get angry, she replied meaningfully, "But everything will go smoothly, I promise."
"That's all for the best, Analene." The sea god Odile threatened impatiently, "Otherwise, no matter what the consequences, I will tear you apart first!"
The first person on the battlefield to notice something was wrong was Marshilin.
With a single punch, she sent the enemy blocking her path flying, her red hair flying wildly in the fierce wind. The red-haired girl looked up at the sea, now swirling in darkness and turmoil from the white nightmare. The water, originally a gray-blue shimmering with white foam, was now growing deeper and deeper at a visible speed, almost inky black. Beneath it, countless tentacles from the abyss seemed to be tangling and stirring, making it appear even more treacherous.
"Speed up the evacuation," she shouted sternly, "Evacuate to higher ground! Quickly!"
The people of Ferros and the army of the royal city were still fleeing desperately under the attack of the dragon, struggling to survive, but the sea water suddenly began to retreat rapidly and strangely, as if the entire ocean took a deep breath, revealing the hideous reefs underneath that had never seen the light of day.
The fish were jumping around aimlessly on the suddenly dried-up seabed. Any experienced fisherman or sailor would be terrified to death when seeing this scene - this was clearly a precursor to a tsunami!
Some experienced generals and soldiers turned pale and shouted, but their voices were completely drowned out by the dragon's roar and the soldiers' wails. Many more stared blankly at the suddenly dry coast, believing it to be a miracle, and some even knelt down and muttered prayers.
The next second, the retreating waters surged back with a thousand times greater fury. A pitch-black wall of water connected heaven and earth, carrying with it crushed ice, reefs, shipwrecks, countless unfortunate marine creatures, and humans swept into the depths of the sea. With crushing force, it swallowed up the sky, submerged the earth, and pounced on every tiny creature on the shore!
The professor looked at the scene with an extremely cold expression.
A hand appeared behind him, firmly supporting the back of his neck and wrapping its arm around his waist. The voice of the God of Struggle and Change boomed in the black-haired youth's ears: "This is no ordinary tsunami. It contains the divine power of the Sea God Odileus."
If the dead old gods want to influence the present world, they must pay an extremely huge price. To be able to proceed to such an extent, it is obvious that the sea god has staked all his remaining souls on it.
The wind is blowing.
Wind rose from the feet of the God of Struggle and Change, spreading rapidly toward the coast like ripples, centered around the two of them. A massive, translucent barrier, composed of countless flowing runes, rose from the shoreline, resolutely facing the surging waves!
With a devastating roar that destroyed the heavens and the earth, all humans looked up in horror and confusion - they saw that the raging dark sea water suddenly swallowed up their sky, but it did not pour down to deprive humans of the air they needed to survive. Instead, it clearly took the shape of a semicircle to protect them.
Regardless of friend or foe, regardless of nationality, they all trembled in fear like panicked rodents hiding in caves during a natural disaster, staring blankly at this miracle that was beyond their comprehension.
The professor could feel the person behind him tremble slightly and breathe more deeply. Clearly, maintaining a barrier of this magnitude against an Old God's near-full-strength attack was no easy task.
But the savior was smiling, not his usual gentle, gentle smile, but a piercingly cold, murderous smile, even tinged with a primal, cruel, and twisted anticipation. As for those clear, beautiful blue eyes, they had transformed into two unbearable golden points, like two blazing, dripping golden suns, seemingly piercing the turbulent waters and chaotic battlefield, firmly fixed on the culprit.
Professor: Wow.
It's rare for this guy to show his... villainous side in front of him.
The sudden and surging waves slammed the White Nightmare into a daze, and it tumbled and struggled desperately in the sea. When it finally reacted and managed to break free from the water, it suddenly discovered that the immense pain that had always permeated it had disappeared.
Then the dragon roared without hesitation, and directed its hateful gaze towards all living things on the coast. Its huge bony wings slammed violently against the upside-down sea surface, stirring up waves into the sky. With a chill that was enough to freeze the sea water in an instant, it rushed towards the light source that was shining brightly in the dark tide like a pale mountain of death!
"The dragon has crawled out of the sea! And it's completely enraged!" The God of Lust excitedly urged, "Odileus! Now! While the New God is distracted!"
The sea god Odile's pupils shrank sharply, and he suddenly grabbed Analene and disappeared from the spot. Almost the next second, the place where they were was completely pierced and obliterated by the dazzling light of destruction that poured down from the tip of the sword.
"I found you."
The voice of the God of Resistance and Change is remarkably calm and exceptionally clear.
The Goddess of Love, who was roughly thrown aside by the God of the Sea, managed to steady herself. She opened her eyes wide and stared blankly at the young god who was walking towards them step by step with a sword in hand.
The other person was standing in the light, so his facial expression could not be seen clearly. All that could be clearly seen were his burning golden pupils and the shadow that seemed to be barely noticeable and standing quietly behind the god.
As expected. Unseen by others, Analene silently grinned, revealing a smug expression. Gods are arrogant, always confident that their own surroundings are the safest place. So, under the threat of two gods, he would never leave the alien alone, even if it meant leaving his own back to them—and this created the opportunity for the "betrayal" drama.
Another earth-shattering roar erupted as the White Nightmare crashed into the barrier. However, the God of Resistance and Change's expression remained unchanged, and even his pace remained the same, as if the devastating tsunami and the dragon's impact were merely insignificant background noise.
The sea god Odras was shocked and angry.
Odile had envisioned a surprise attack. Though rough and violent, he was no fool. He had never considered confronting a living, young god in his prime by parasitizing his followers.
If this believer were a saint, then perhaps they could still fight back for a short while. But how could a saint be so easy to find? Even this high-ranking Lord's Prayer was a body that the King of Fernloth had to work so hard to find.
So he soon found himself in a desperate situation and in a very embarrassing state. If the other party had not had to bother to maintain the barrier to resist the tsunami and the dragon, he might have been defeated even faster - not to mention that the damn Goddess of Love was only willing to hide aside and occasionally cast some harmless spells, and he even had to bother to protect her!
Being forced into a desperate situation, Odles was forced into a desperate and ferocious behavior.
"You forced me to do this! New God!" He let out a crazy and twisted roar, and the believer who was controlled by him and should have been insane immediately began to scream heartbreakingly, and his muscles and bones creaked under the heavy burden!
For the first time, Analenie's eyes showed fear, real fear.
"No! Odile, you lunatic!" She screamed heartbreakingly, "You're actually going to detonate the godhead here?! If you keep going like this, I'll die too!"
"Then let's die together, bitch!" Odile's voice was completely distorted, filled with the madness of destroying everything: "I will make you die together with me!"
Azuka's expression also grew solemn. He could clearly sense the frantic backflow of Odile's divine power around him. The sea suddenly dropped, while the destructive energy deep within the human body surged, on the verge of breaking through the critical point.
Just as he gripped the hilt of the sword, took a step forward, and protected the professor firmly behind him, with almost all his attention focused on the sea god Odles who was about to explode, a cold and hard gun muzzle was silently pointed at the back of his neck.
Analene, standing across from the God of Struggle and Change, was stunned for a moment, then her eyes flashed with utter ecstasy. But she didn't dare move too much, fearing the new god would see through her—and finally, she took action! She knew humans wouldn't dare break their promise to the Okansele River!
Even if a mere bullet cannot kill the young god, when the god is most focused on the powerful enemy and is most defenseless behind him, being backstabbed by the most beloved human being who is protecting him will also be a fatal blow to him!
The confrontation between strong men would change in a thousand ways in an instant. This time was enough for her and Odles to do something - at least to stop that crazy and reckless man from thinking about dying here with them!
