Cthulhu Gonfalon

Chapter 942: Earth-shattering (Part 1)

The resurrection of the God of Conspiracy did not go unnoticed by Sui Xiong.

Sui Xiong was full of admiration for this fellow, who had managed to rise up from his death somehow. Historically speaking, the number of gods who had fallen were too many to count, but there were only a rare few who managed to undergo resurrection. Most of the resurrected gods had managed to do so with the help of others and with uncanny luck. The number of gods who managed to resurrect with their own abilities, plans and activities was extremely low.

The God of Conspiracy was one of these rare few.

When that illuminated shadow had first appeared, Sui Xiong had already noticed it. It was just that he had felt that is would not really bring any harm to anyone, and had thus ignored it and did not take any action.

For the murlocs to want to create a god for their own race was an extremely normal and expected request, and it was one that Sui Xiong did not need to decline.

Afterwards, once that illuminated shadow had pierced through Yuslar’s body, it had turned the murlocs’ mass offerings and rituals into an opportunity to steal Yuslar’s power. That was when Sui Xiong realized that something was amiss.

Was that really a God of Murlocs? He could not be sure.

Once the illuminated shadow became less and less translucent, Sui Xiong finally identified a familiar aura emitting off it. At that point, he couldn’t help but feel like shouting “oh no!” at the top of his lungs. This aura… Why, it was the God of Conspiracy!

When did this fellow even manage to set up this trap? Most importantly, how had the God of Conspiracy managed to fool the murlocs to the extent where they had gathered the entire race and unwittingly enabled him to resurrect?!

Brilliant! It was truly brilliant.

Sui Xiong could not help himself and praised the God of Conspiracy for his ingenuity. At the same time, he consciously reminded himself to be more aware and defensive against the God of Conspiracy.

This fellow was definitely extremely dangerous!

Even so, once the God of Conspiracy had managed to fully resurrect, it was when Sui Xiong realized that he had once again underestimated the God of Conspiracy’s ingenuity.

The resurrected God of Conspiracy’s aura was completely different from his previous aura in the past. As compared to the past, it was much more stable. The dead and depressing aura was reduced and now replaced with feelings of prosperity and progress. Sui Xiong especially sensed the murlocs and the sea as two distinct priesthoods in the God of Conspiracy’s aura now.

One could also say that the God of Conspiracy had gone beyond merely resurrecting to adjusting and taking on a new priesthood. He had gotten rid of a few more troublesome things and had taken the opportunity to gain control of the murlocs and make them his followers.

Now, he was not simply the God of Conspiracy but could also be considered the God of Murlocs. The latter title was something that he held on out of novelty, but he could choose to get rid of it anytime he wanted.

This tactic was really… Sui Xiong did not know how to describe it, except to say that I was brilliant, absolutely brilliant!

Sui Xiong did not reveal himself and communicate with God of Conspiracy. Instead, he chose to remain invisible and continue to observe the situation’s progress in the background.

The God of Conspiracy was truly the God of Conspiracy… Although the murlocs were extremely enraged at the start, they were also clueless as to what kind of method he had used. However, the God of Conspiracy managed to quickly win over the murlocs and got them to be less hostile towards him.

This only added on to Sui Xiong’s admiration for the God of Conspiracy. This fellow was only average at fighting, but his ability to strategize was really something unique that was unattainable by the vast majority! If the God of Conspiracy were to travel to Earth and participate in the Spring Festival Evening, he would definitely be able to steal Zhao Benshan’s spotlight!

No, if he were to appear on Earth, with his immense ability to convince, he would probably be able to become the head of state of some country!

Even if he did not become the head of state, he probably could become a cult leader and convert the whole entire country to his followers…

As Sui Xiong thought about the God of Conspiracy, he could not help but laugh to himself.

Below the surface of the sea, the God of Conspiracy had managed to subdue the entire murloc race and was feeling extremely satisfied and accomplished. He turned his head upwards to glance at the sky, smiled slightly, and closed his eyes.

A shadow flashed across his body momentarily before it appeared in the Ancient Forest.

On a random big rock near the streamside, the Orc Judge, who was sitting quietly and meditating, opened his eyes to glance at the shadow that had suddenly appeared in front of him.

“You actually managed to resurrect?” He was slightly shocked. “You’re truly brilliant!”

“I always prepare a backup plan in anything I do,” the God of Conspiracy replied. “How’s the situation now?”

“Not good. The humans and Orcs are fighting, and we are part of the battle as well.”

“Why is the battle between the humans and the Orcs any of our business? Are you out of your mind?”

“The Master God of the Orcs led their God Kingdom and collided it against the humans’ God Kingdom, and both perished together. Now, the human gods are nowhere to be found. Although the human clergymen are still able to communicate with them, they are temporarily unable to borrow any Divine Power. The various races have already gathered into supporting troops and are using this chance to ally themselves together and attack the humans, hoping to defeat them as one!” The Orc Judge’s eyes sparkled as he spoke. “This is an extremely rare opportunity!”

The God of Conspiracy, however, let out a loud sound of disapproval. “Alliance? Our gods have participated as part of this alliance, too?”

“Of course!”

“Get them to retreat now. Now!”

The Orc Judge froze and glanced suspiciously at the God of Conspiracy. “Are you stupid? If we retreat now, once the humans are defeated, there will be no benefits for us, and we will be at a huge loss!”

“Benefits? What benefits! If we continue to fight, we will perish with everyone else!” The God of Conspiracy was so angry he could explode, and he yelled in frustration. “Do you all really think the God of Light is so easy to subdue? He is extremely ingenious!”

“That doesn’t matter. This time, the number of gods that have allied together to fight the humans exceed 200, of which there are more than 10 Divine Powers. Even if the God of Light is extremely strong, do you think he will be able to singlehandedly defeat 10 Divine Powers?”

“Sigh! It’s useless telling you all this. I have no time to sit here and explain things to you. All I can say is, I promise you, it’s best to retreat now!”

The Orc Judge frowned and fell silent for a while before saying, “I’m afraid we really cannot do that. The fairy gods will not listen to us. They have their own mindset and take towards the situation.”

The God of Conspiracy was extremely anxious and spun around in circles in an annoyed fashion. “Since that is the case… Let us prepare to use our final tactic.”

“What!? Are you insane!?”

“You think I’m crazy? I’m as conscious as I can be! Since we can no longer retreat, we will have to fight all the way. That trump card we have will be wasted if we do not use it, so let’s just brandish it!”

“I think you need to drink some tea and calm down.”

“Stop dawdling! Is this the time to drink tea? Quickly open up the border so I can find that thing. Let’s make preparations now!”

The Orc Judge glanced at the anxious God of Conspiracy and frowned hard. Instinct told him that the God of Conspiracy was right. However, he simply could not identify where the situation had gone wrong.

Just at this very moment, the gods that had been searching in that piece of void suddenly heard someone laughing coldy.

This laughter was familiar to all of them. It came from the Master God of the Human God System, the God of Light, Wuther Rang.

This cold laughter had an evil and satisfied tone to it and was not weak at all.

More than one weak god immediately tensed up in fear and wanted to leave. Before they could do anything, however, the God of Light’s voice rang out.

“Since you are already here, you can’t go!”

As he spoke, the two God Kingdoms, which had become giant balls of light, suddenly exploded.
