Chapter 201: The Two Gods Join Forces, but the Outcome is Not Optimistic
Europe is in complete chaos.
The space was filled with cracks and chaotic energy.
Archangel Michael and Amaterasu fought for a long time, neither able to defeat the other.
Michael's twelve wings of light were blackened by the golden demonic fire, and their light dimmed considerably.
Amaterasu's kimono was also torn, and her nine fox tails were covered in wounds, dripping with golden blood.
If this fight continues, it will result in mutual destruction, ultimately allowing the ancient Chinese gods in the east, who are awakening, to reap the benefits.
Stop.
Michael spoke first, his voice sounding a little tired.
Amaterasu licked the blood from the corner of her mouth and smiled.
"Not playing anymore?"
"It seems your followers are almost all dead."
Michael ignored that and pointed directly to the east.
"We have a common enemy."
"China".
"The soul there is more delicious, and more abundant."
The murderous intent in Amaterasu's eyes turned into greed.
She knew, of course, that the land was better, but also harder. The old folks sleeping there were far more difficult to deal with than this Western false god propped up by his followers.
"You want to cooperate?"
"That's right." Michael's tone was direct. "If we join forces, we'll first eliminate those ancient gods who have awakened in China. After that, that land, and the billions of souls within it..."
He paused for a moment and then gave the price.
"Splitting it 50/50."
Amaterasu smiled.
"make a deal."
Inside the holy city's main hall, a contract shrouded in holy light and demonic energy appeared. Two false gods reached out and pressed their marks upon it.
……
East China Sea front.
Lu Yan looked at his compatriots, who were like living dead, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
He can't just leave like this.
He raised his hand, and the crystal black lotus in his palm flew out and burrowed directly into the sentry platform beneath his feet.
"Devour".
Lu Yan gave the order.
He was too lazy to deconstruct it bit by bit, so he simply used the most unreasonable method of the Black Lotus to forcibly devour the rules of this barrier.
hum-
Pink miasma churned violently around the outpost, as if being sucked into an invisible black hole. The rules of the barrier were locked in a fierce struggle against the power of the black lotus.
Lu Yan's face paled slightly.
Forcing his way into a barrier set up by a false god also took a great toll on him.
But he didn't stop.
After the Black Lotus absorbed about a third of the barrier's energy, the sealed warriors finally began to show some physical reaction.
"Take them away!"
Su Yunqing and Lin Chuxue immediately set to work, dragging the unconscious soldiers one by one onto the "Kunpeng" transport plane.
Su Yunqing's healing beam swept across the bodies of these warriors, and her hands immediately turned cold.
"team leader……"
Her voice sounded a little strained.
"Their maximum health has been permanently reduced."
Each person rescued had a portion of their life essence drained away. That drained energy traveled through space and became nourishment for Amaterasu, far away in Europe, to heal her injuries.
Lu Yan looked at the lingering demonic aura in the east, then at the holy light mingling with the demonic aura on the western horizon.
He got it.
"Return to headquarters in Beijing."
Lu Yan's voice was cold.
"There's more than one enemy now."
……
The capital city, the underground core command center.
The atmosphere in the meeting room was somber.
On the huge holographic screen, on one side was the pink demonic barrier of the East China Sea, stuck to the eastern gate of China like a piece of chewing gum.
On the other side, there was a scene of holy light and demonic fire clashing together. The intelligence department had already analyzed the contents of the "Dual Gods Strangulation Contract" and presented it to everyone.
The Papacy and Takamagahara, two invading forces that originally disliked each other, joined forces.
"Grass!"
Zhao Leiguang slammed his fist on the alloy tabletop. The table was fine, but his fist went numb from the impact.
"These sons of bitches really think highly of us."
Everyone in the first squad looked grim.
They had barely purged the internal traitors and hadn't even caught their breath when they were attacked by a combined attack from two mythological systems.
The most fatal flaw is that they can't win.
In a one-on-one fight, whether it's the twelve-winged angel or Amaterasu, the first team, with their top-tier divine equipment and Lu Yan's Black Lotus, might be able to hold their own and fight to the death.
But now, two false gods have joined forces. They will face countless legions of angels and armies of demons.
The existing A-level and S-level equipment would be no different from paper in a war of that scale.
All of them, including Lu Yan, were stuck at the level cap of 50, like an invisible shackle that had everyone by the neck.
No matter how good the equipment is, at level 50, the damage of a single punch has a limit.
Because there is no room for improvement.
But God, there is none.
The intense fear of insufficient firepower has returned once again.
"First squad, all present."
A general in the command center looked at the screen, then at the group of young men who exuded murderous intent but were clearly exhausted, and gave the order.
"Enter the absolutely safe zone on the ninth underground level and undergo mandatory 24-hour rest."
"This is a strict order."
……
The training room is located on the ninth basement level.
boom! boom! boom!
Zhao Lei, shirtless, used no skills, just his fists, punching the alloy wall testing physical resistance again and again.
On the wall, the fist marks kept getting deeper and deeper.
He wasn't training; he was venting.
It's a way to vent the frustration of watching the enemy right there while you can't do anything about it.
On the other side, Xiao Qianyu sat on the ground, holding a soft cloth, wiping her Dragon King Battle Halberd over and over again.
Her movements were mechanical, her eyes unfocused, as she repeatedly wiped the weapon, as if trying to infuse all her frustration and murderous intent into it.
Lin Chuxue hugged her knees and huddled in the darkest corner, like a lost little girl.
But upon closer inspection, one can see a very faint wisp of blood-red mist swirling around the tips of her curled fingers, sometimes transforming into claws, sometimes into spikes.
Shen Xinglin stood motionless at the entrance of the training room, like a gatekeeper.
Even though this is the safest place in the country, he still habitually adopted a guarding posture, though his tense shoulders betrayed his inner unease.
Lu Yan sat cross-legged in the center of the room with his eyes closed.
His mind was racing.
Deconstruction, devouring, erasure... these abilities all operate within the rules.
But now, the enemy itself is the one who sets the rules.
To break this deadlock, we need to find a force that can override the enemy's rules.
What he wants is to overturn this table.
Time passed little by little.
The only sounds in the training room were the muffled thuds of Zhao Leiguang slamming his fist against the wall and the rustling of Xiao Qianyu wiping her weapons. Everyone was overwhelmed by a sense of anxiety and helplessness.
When the rest period entered its 12th hour.
drop--
At the same time, all the tactical terminals in the training room lit up. There were no alarms on the screens, only a short message in an archaic font, from an unknown encrypted source.
"Of the number fifty, forty-nine are used; if one is removed, that one becomes a variable."
"Come to Kunlun."
