Chapter 226: God (1) (1/2)

Chapter 226: God (1)

It signalled the beginning of the contest. Upa’s death was a great opportunity for the other grand dukes. It was a perfect opportunity to reinforce their weakened troops and gain Upa’s achievements.

I moved faster than anyone else.

I swept through Upa’s dungeon with Maxium.

If I took it over then I would have problems managing it, but I wasn’t in the position to worry about that right now. It was better to have a poorly managed dungeon than to have Ariel or Pandemonium occupy it.

The three remaining grand dukes fought over the dungeons belonging to Upa’s faction.

The humans also started some major movements. They also seemed to know about Upa’s absence. They succeeded in preparing the Awakened and conquering one of the dungeons.

The dungeon cores...they were a very useful energy source for humans. And the fact that one dungeon disappeared meant that new heroes could possibly appear. Dungeons were overflowing with products that humans could use.

But I didn’t really care about the activities of the humans. I wanted to prevent the remaining grand dukes from absorbing Upa’s dungeons. If humans destroyed the dungeons then it would also benefit me.

I stirred up the Awakened in Korea. The girin selected Edward Windsor as the king and he led them to conquer the dungeons. The titles and buffs given to Edward Windsor after he became the king made him humanity’s strongest Awakened.

Korea was safer than any other country in the world. Monster waves didn’t happen often and they could steadily gain resources from the dungeon. Once Edward started his career, many foreign refugees came to Korea.

Humans truly gained hope. The most inspiring place was Korea. Korea was recovering and growing remarkably quickly.

And I...I was doing my best to pressure Pandemonium.

From Africa to Asia, these places were Pandemonium’s main stage. Most of his demons were there and his army was like a solid wall.

With strong bonds and superior intelligence, they weaved a spider web from Africa to Asia.

While Ariel Diablo of North America and Upa Bullenon of South America were fighting, Pandemonium was able to accumulate his power.

Once the fight between Upa and Ariel was over, he would rise as a new power.

But that was a story of the past.

He suffered huge losses at Greenwich Observatory. The loss was half of his original army.

Upa was dead and Ariel’s damage wasn’t that great. In the aftermath of Hope, Pandemonium was the one who suffered the most damage.

And Africa was the place where one of Pandemonium’s most powerful vassals, Duke Beilla was stationed.

He was one of the demons who didn’t participate in the meeting at Greenwich Observatory. He had been in charge of support from the rear.

Of course, Duke Beilla was one of Pandemonium’s strongest followers.

“My Dungeon Master.”

Egypt. It was a wide, open land where the wind was blowing.

Chrisley knelt down and waited for my next command.

I moved my gaze.

There were 100,000 creatures lined up in an orderly manner.

It was the result of using my points and achievement points.

Originally I had two to three times as many creatures, but the rest were at the dungeons or assigned to Maxim. Occupying Upa’s dungeons was also important.

Besides Chrisley, there was a three metre tall human with a bald head.

‘An evolved homunculus.’

Gaparam finally received a clue after studying Gustarte. After examining the flesh of a god, Gaparam’s skills in the field of life increased by several times. The result of his work was strong enough to chew on the strongest high class creature.

Although mass production wasn’t possible due to materials and time, he added a considerable amount of force to my army.

I moved my gaze back to Chrisley.

”The preparations?”

”It is done.”

I nodded.

If Chrisley said it was done then it would be.

My crimson cloak waved around me. Then I walked through the creatures.

Kung. Kung. Kung.

Words weren’t necessary.

Chrisley and the 100,000 creatures quietly followed behind me.

The successive victories continued. Pandemonium was on the defensive. Ariel also put pressure on Pandemonium so it was inevitable.

At this point, I controlled half of Pandemonium’s dungeons. My army increased by more than 200,000 to reach 280,000 and many of them were advanced creatures.

I now had room to breathe. I rearranged the army and dealt with issues that had been postponed.

After a long time, I returned to the Korean dungeon and took out five pieces from my magic bag.

They were the pieces that Chrisley, Tashmal, Hash, Yoo Eun-hye and Edward brought out from the advanced training room. They were divided like a puzzle.

I joined the pieces of the puzzle together.

-The Piece of Balance, Piece of Enlightenment, Piece of Growth, Piece of Faith and Piece of Valour have been combined.

-The interpretation...

-The five pieces mean five types of balance.

-The interpretation...

-The pieces have combined and transformed into one seed.

-‘Seed of Creation’ has been acquired. The Seed of Creation is a necessary item to qualify as a true ‘god.’ The species born from this seed will belong to the owner of the seed. The creator is their god and has the responsibility to lead them.

I touched my jaw.

‘The Seed of Creation.’

It was an unexpected result. I was convinced.

This was an item that the Hell Monarch deliberately hid.

After he was resurrected as a god, he had been thinking of creating his own species.

Thus, he had a plan to be reborn as a true god.

I smiled thinly. It might seem useless, but it was an item necessary to become a god. This was the first time I had seen something like this.

‘Tree of Origin.’

At that moment, I thought of the Tree of Origin. I had gone there hoping to be qualified. I wanted to test myself against my shadow and make myself perfect.

Perfection!
