Cthulhu Gonfalon

Chapter 919: The Final Battle (Part 3)

Although the areas near where the collision happened were still shaking and one could not transcend through and had to use flight, Sui Xiong flew at an extremely fast speed and arrived near the original battleground quickly.

Well, roughly where the original battleground was.

After the collision of the two God Kingdoms and the subsequent explosion, the intense shockwaves generated had been beyond what any god could take. Even if Sui Xiong had experienced shockwaves before when facing several mini explosions in other battles, they paled in comparison to the current shockwaves. Such a big explosion would not die down so easily!

Even with Sui Xiong’s powers, he could not get to close to the original site of collision and could only observe from afar.

That ball of white light was still intensely erupting and burning. It seemed as though the two God Kingdoms had surpassed the first round of explosions, but there were still many more stages of eruptions to go through. It seemed as though with its current state, it would continue to explode for a period of time.

Once everything had exploded, the light ball that had been created by the two extremely different God Kingdoms had to continue burning for a long time. It was possible that there would be a once-off and final large explosion, bigger than the original one, leaving behind only tiny fragments of the light ball. It was also possible that the two God Kingdoms would slowly become compatible and convert into a Divine Power that both sides could accommodate while burning, slowly attaining stability. If that happened, it would become a treasure trove that any person would value, and all the gods would certainly start thinking up ideas to attempt to acquire it.

However, that would only happen long into the future. Right now, in light of the big battle, all these things did not matter yet. Sui Xiong and the gods only cared about where the humans and Orcs had disappeared to right now.

There was no need to care about the Oracle troops that had been surrounding the two God Kingdoms as they had definitely all perished. With such an explosion, never mind legendary and demigod Oracles, even gods would not be able to survive. Even the strongest gods would not be able to survive if they had had a slightly slow reaction or did not have appropriate methods to protect themselves.

This was why Sui Xiong did not think that there would be any survivors among the Oracle troops. He only hoped that neither side had been completely obliterated, which would mean that this battle was fully over in spite of many assumptions that it would be an intense and long-drawn one.

“At least... For someone as strong as the God of Light, he can’t possibly have died so easily...” Because of the chaos around him, Sui Xiong was unable to use his Divine Power to search around, and he did not want to take the risk and use souls to test waters. He could only use his eyes to glance around, trying to seek out any living creature or traces of life. As he searched, he muttered to himself under his breath.

“Wuther Rang! Come out now! I know you wouldn’t have died so easily!” a strong yet raspy voice suddenly rang out. action

Sui Xiong froze and turned around. All he saw was a meteorite whistling past. This was actually a giant warship, and on the warship were all the masters of the Orc tribe.

The various Orc gods were mostly made up of demigods and elite Oracles. The war ship that resembled a mountain had a force that was tremendous and scary, one that many other god systems would fear.

At the head of the ship, the “Iron Mask Ferocious Spirit,” Snakenell, whom Sui Xiong had met several times, was wearing a suit of armor and holding on to a spear that was shaped like a flexible snake. He was coldly glancing in Sui Xiong’s direction.

That strong yet raspy voice that Sui Xiong had heard had belonged to Snakenell.

Sui Xiong observed the warship carefully and got a sudden shock. He did not see “Sky Devourer” Lefon on the ship.

Where could Lefon have gone?

As the strongest in the Orc God System, it was strange that Lefon was absent.

Sui Xiong flew over suspiciously towards the Orc gods and was about to ask on the whereabouts of Lefon when he got an extremely huge shock and stopped in his tracks. He noticed that among the Orc gods, many had changed into glamorous ritual robes, and their horns, waist, shoulders and other body parts had white ribbons tied around them.

This was the Orc tribe’s mourning outfit. When one of the Orc seniors or a good Orc friend had passed away, at the funeral, they would use white ribbons to adorn their clothes.

The Republic of Northwest had many Orcs. Despite the changes in bloodline and faith, they had not lost sight of their original culture. It was thus common to see such outfits being worn at funerals in the Republic when Orcs had died.

This outfit was not particularly noticeable, and most people would not notice the few white ribbons. However, Sui Xiong was an experienced artist. The first time he had seen it, he had taken note of this special feature of the Orcs’ outfits and even did further research into this special outfit and learned more about it. In one of Schwarier von Stolovsky Franz’s formal academic texts, he had mentioned a chapter on “Discussing the Orcs’ mourning outfit’s history and the significance of using white ribbons,” which was acknowledged and endorsed by the scholars in the Orc Empire.

Sui Xiong thus recognized the Orcs’ outfit now as mourning outfits and suddenly realized what was going on.

The Orcs were mourning the loss of their own Master God.

The Orc God System’s Master God, who had defeated “Iron Mask Ferocious Spirit” and ascended the throne, the hero who had continuously pitted the Orcs against the humans, “Sky Devourer” Lefon, was dead.

As he came to this realization, Sui Xiong naturally fell silent.

Among the Orc God System, few were familiar to Sui Xiong. The only Orc god he could somewhat term as a friend was Lefon. With the demise of Lefon, it was no longer necessary for him to find out what was going on with the Orcs.

Without any relations, what was the point of finding out the current situation? The Orcs were grieving their loss of their leader and were unlikely to reply as well.

The giant warship whooshed past Sui Xiong and did not slow down at all. The gods, demigods, and Oracles on the boat all had the same blank expression and they were carefully hunting for any living human god. None of them gave Sui Xiong a second glance.

Sui Xiong remained silent and did not say a word.

A second after, he saw that there was another warship behind the Orcs’, which was full of dwarf gods, who had similarly been curious about the voice that had sounded out.

The dwarf gods did not have such a huge warship. They were split into six smaller warships in order to carry all their gods, demigods and elite Oracles.

Behind them, there was a fleet of empty ships, and there were hundreds of them.

These were the systems that had allied with the Orcs to fight against the humans. Some were aboard the warships; some were using their own war tools. The average ones used the transport tools that they were unable to use in war, while those who were weaker did not even have such tools and thus used their own body as transportation, carrying the demigods and Oracles.

There were many other races present such as the dwarves, pygmies and marsh aboriginal gods. Even the fairy gods, who were usually indifferent and isolated, had appeared as well.

There were even many other races that lived outside of the Main Plane and only had scattered individuals within the Main Plane who had arrived as well.

These races had all arrived to involve themselves in the battle and decide the future!

The Orcs had already used the sacrifice of their Master God and the destruction of their God Kingdom to prove that they were sincere. They had paid a great price and reduced the humans to a level that they had never fallen to before. As for the races which did not want their own people to be evicted from the Main Plane or for the races which wanted to gain some advantage in this battle, this was their only and best chance to do so.

This war was the ultimate battle that would decide the fate of all races which lived on the Main Plane!
