Chapter 737: Despair



Chapter 737: Despair

The two Gorilla Gods did not leave immediately after reaching a consensus with Feylis.

While they scrutinized the verdant green elemental barrier below, they contacted the distant War Gorilla God.

Wild Gorilla World’s special civilization system had caused them to develop a communication method that was different from that of Magus World.

While the mages of Magus World used crystal balls as the main medium of transmission, these otherworldly Gorilla Gods, on the other hand, could complete the exchange of information through some kind of faith channel.

However, since this was a relatively primitive way of utilizing faith, the amount of information transmitted and the transmission distance were no match for the Magus World mages’ crystal balls.

The two Gorilla Gods quickly made contact with War Gorilla God and obtained War Gorilla God’s approval.

After inquiring from Feylis about some of her fabricated homeplane information, the two Rank Four Exotic Gorilla Gods eventually left. Surprisingly, none of them had the slightest bit of suspicion toward her.

It was also possible that Feylis’ answer was so perfect and watertight that the two simple-minded Gorilla Gods did not notice any flaws.

There was a reason why the mages of Magus World were described to be more cunning than the devils by other extraplanar creatures.

The temporary departure of the two Gorilla Gods did not mean they fully trusted Feylis.

They were still afraid that she would run away.

As the two Gorillas vanished into the sky, Feylis sneered coldly within her verdant green elemental barrier. With a swift motion, she drew out two specks of pale yellow light that had been circling the barrier.

Lorianne’s elemental clone murmured, “This is...”

“A crude method of divine marking, it seems they think they’ve got me,” Feylis sneered.

“If I were truly just a foolish and unlucky Rank Four creature who stumbled into this world by mistake, escaping these ill-intentioned Gorilla Gods, especially with a Rank Five among them, would be nearly impossible—even if I managed to flee to the Astral Realm,” she added.

After saying that, Feylis commanded, “Notify the legions on the other side of the spatial gate to move as soon as possible. Urge your seniors too.”

“More than eighty Gorilla Gods mean that the Wild Gorilla World has occupied no less than a hundred planes governed by a complete set of laws. With such a lucrative prospect of war gains, it’s worth to spend more resources to rush here,” she added.

“All right,” Lorianne acknowledged Feylis’ orders.

Feylis then turned her attention to Sein, who had reverted to his human form.

Dressed in his Dim Star magic robe, he presented a well-mannered and calm demeanor.

Feylis was aware of Sein’s critical role in the infiltration mission, which had been complicated by the unexpected emergence of the Wild Gorilla World.

The original plan to invade Verdant Wilderness World had to be aborted, rendering the law node weakeners that Sein had risked his life to place early in the mission useless.

Yet, Feylis was impressed by his resilience and capabilities.

“Lorianne told me that you have made remarkable progress in body tempering, yes?” Feylis began, her voice carrying a tone of approval.

“To acknowledge your efforts, I’ll give you this. I’ve used this body tempering notes when I was younger.” She smiled warmly, tossing a tome enveloped in verdant green flames to Sein.

Crafted from an unknown material, the tome continued to burn with a flame that was unmistakably the purest verdant fire.

Its pages were inscribed with unique black script, resembling tadpoles, obscured slightly by the green flames.

Sein quickly accepted the tome and expressed his gratitude.

"Thank you, Grandmaster!”

As he grasped the book, a verdant flame ignited in his palm, tinged with a subtle purple that contrasted with the pure green of the grimoire's flame, lending the flame an orange hue.

Feylis observed the flame in Sein’s hand with interest for a few seconds, then praised him once more.

“Not bad!” she said.

The Magus World’s forces arrived ahead of schedule, marking the onset of a critical phase in the ongoing conflicts of the Verdant Wilderness Realm.

This early arrival was set to influence the strategic planning of subsequent campaigns, particularly those targeting the star domain of Wild Gorilla World.

The first Magus World Army to penetrate Verdant Wilderness World were not the regular troops of the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring but rather elite mage forces from the Divine Tower of Verdant Flame, accompanied by legions of enslaved creatures.

When hundreds of thousands of these troops surged through the spatial gate into Verdant Wilderness World, even the dimmest of the Gorilla Gods sensed trouble brewing.

The notion of a so-called wandering god from the Astral Realm arriving with such a formidable force seemed far-fetched.

“Where is that wandering Verdant Flame God now?” War Gorilla God asked, its gaze sweeping across the expanse of Lush Verdant Forest.

Beside him, a Rank Four Gorilla God replied, “Force Gorilla God and Fire Gorilla God approached it recently. It should still be in the southern forest. Fire Gorilla God is monitoring it closely, obviously interested in its divine relic.”

“Oh yes, Fire Gorilla God also mentioned that she’s a female god and intended to keep her as its personal slave,” it added.

The Wild Gorilla Clan was notorious for its violent and lascivious nature across neighboring star domains.

War Gorilla God, shrewd despite its arrogance, took off the green lens it wore over its right eye and frowned.

“Where are those two?” it asked.

“Force Gorilla God is investigating the Twilight Forest, believing it to be the navel of this world. Fire Gorilla God is... likely still observing the wandering god,” the other Gorilla God replied.

Mulling over the strategic implications, War Gorilla God considered their inevitable victory in Verdant Wilderness World.

After years of brutal conquests, the resistance was nearly decimated, clinging desperately to the sole power of the Rank Four Verdant Wilderness God.

Surrounded by the thick scent of blood and battle, War Gorilla God’s formidable presence as a Rank Five being was even more fearsome.

It turned its head around and told other Gorilla Gods, “Go check on the situation in the south, find out what happened!”

“Then inform that fool to bring the wandering god before me. If it does not comply, I’ll handle it myself!” it added.

Before it even finished speaking, a thunderous rumble was heard coming from beyond the Verdant Wilderness World.

To the awe of every lesser creature in the world, three colossal metal continents materialized in the sky.

Only the mightiest civilization could create dangerous-looking products of advanced magitech and alchemy like these war platforms.

Caught unawares by the sudden appearances of these formidable space fortresses, War Gorilla God and its group were visibly shaken.

Meanwhile, a boisterous laughter, rivaling that of War Gorilla God itself, echoed throughout Verdant Wilderness World.

“Gwahahahaha, so, this is the small world you discovered?”

“Yes, it’s also connected to a medium-sized plane.”

At that moment, a verdant green-colored Flame Elemental Giant descended close to the planar barrier, peering intently into the world.

“That little thing down there seems like it can fight,” he mused aloud.

Even War Gorilla God, a Rank Five being seasoned in countless battles, shuddered under the imposing presence of this colossal being ablaze with eerie green flames.

To the north, where the space-time rift was, an even more violent explosion erupted, sending a massive wave of elemental energy crashing through the plane.

The sheer force of this elemental tidal wave surpassed even that of the Elemental Giant outside the barrier.

The War Gorilla God turned his surprised gaze northward in dread. Through his sea of faith consciousness, he could hear Fire Gorilla God’s desperate pleas and mournful howls.
