"It's alright now." Dog God looked at them, seemingly able to sense their concerns.
He sat down first, disregarding whether his white robe would be stained with blood, and took the initiative to explain.
"I can't guard the dog gate for much longer!"
? !
Although everyone was somewhat prepared, hearing these words from the Dog God still caused their expressions to change drastically.
There was a mishap with the dog gate last time! Several big guys escaped!
There might be something wrong with Dog God; everyone had this suspicion in their minds.
But they've been stationed here for two months already!
I thought this matter was over, and the changes that befell Dog God were over!
But I never expected this!
The dog god has become even more bizarre!
"Don't be nervous. After this self-mutilation, I should be able to sustain myself for about a month."
The "Dog God" sat there cross-legged, and unlike before, his initial arrogance had disappeared, replaced by a sense of maturity.
It was as if this was his true self.
After all, his real age is probably more than two thousand years old, even though he is the youngest among the twelve zodiac gods!
But at this age, it has long exceeded the limits of human lifespan.
How could he still be that arrogant person?
“I had communicated with the Rat God before the last time the Dog Gate was in turmoil.”
"I am a pure martial artist, and my mental strength is my weakness. Almost everyone in the upper echelons knows this!"
"They know too!"
"Therefore, I am the least suitable person to be a goalkeeper!"
The weaknesses are too obvious! They're too easy to exploit!
"But there's no other way; I'll have to guard this dog gate for the time being."
"I thought that no matter what, I could guard the Dog Gate for a thousand years and complete the mission of this generation of Dog God!"
"I didn't expect that a problem would occur before I even got a replacement."
As he spoke, "Dog God" stood up, bowed to everyone, and expressed his deep apologies.
He then sat down again and continued speaking.
"I do have a health problem!"
"My spiritual power is too weak. Compared to other gods, I am ridiculously weak."
"So, I still fell for it!" Dog God shook his head with a self-deprecating laugh.
"Do you all still remember the Nightmare King from a hundred years ago?"
"That alien king who is most skilled in mental power?" An old man who had been guarding the Dog Gate for more than a hundred years immediately exclaimed in surprise.
This alien king left a deep impression on him!
On that day, the alien king attacked the dog gate, and the human race fought desperately. But when the battle ended, the human race lost more than twenty ninth-level powerhouses in one fell swoop!
It can be said that their vitality has been severely damaged!
“That’s right, it’s that Nightmare King.” Dog God nodded.
Another person chimed in, "But I remember that battle, wasn't it a great victory for the Nightmare King and our side?!"
"You even personally took action and killed the Nightmare King!"
"This greatly boosts the morale of the Chinese people!"
"Although the losses were heavy, this... also brought peace to the extraterrestrial races for nearly a hundred years!"
"It is thanks to this century of peace that we have produced so many high-level martial artists!"
At this point, the man suddenly stopped and stared intently at the dog god.
Everyone present was a cunning old fox who had lived for hundreds of years!
They're not fools!
Having said that, I now understand what the Dog God means!
"The Nightmare King's scheme began a hundred years ago?!"
"So, their goal wasn't to eliminate our high-level martial artists! Because we have a large population, even with great expenditure, there will always be geniuses who can stand out!"
"A war of attrition cannot break us, not even in ten thousand years!"
"So... what they're really targeting is you?!"
"Hmm." The Dog God nodded slowly. "A hundred years ago, the Snake God and I set up a trap to lure out the Nightmare King, who had been lurking in the Dog Gate."
"One sword strike completely annihilated the Nightmare King!"
"But I never imagined that a century later, I might not have won that battle after all!"
"Twenty years ago, I realized something was wrong and sent a wisp of my soul to the Rat God and the Snake God. They gave me the best solution."
"Completely seal off the dog door and make it a dead end."
"At that time, even if I am in seclusion, I will still be able to continue guarding the dog gate."
"But I refuse! The method of sealing the dog gate requires the lives of three demigods to completely close it off!"
"We can't afford this price!" Dog God gave a bitter smile.
Three half-saints—that's equivalent to sacrificing the lives of dozens of ninth-tier powerhouses!
Would a demigod be so foolish as to risk his life to close the door?!
have!
But the Dog God refused!
Many of these semi-saints were once close friends and seniors!
Since Dog God has gone to such lengths, how could he possibly want his best friend to willingly go and die?!
"But now, we really can't hold on any longer!" Dog God put away his bitter smile and resumed his superior demeanor.
"I need three years to resolve the abnormality in my body!"
"...at least three years!"
"I intend to forge my body into a divine sword, and stand firmly before the dog gate!"
"In this way, those who are at the same level as me will never be able to step through the dog gate again!"
"If I can successfully solve this problem in three years, the longsword will become my body!"
"If I lose, the Rat God will personally take action to wipe out that evil thought!"
Everyone's expression changed. Was the Dog God going to completely abandon his own body to gamble on that fifty percent chance?!
