Chapter 480: Mortal Domination Over Divine Realm Gods!

From Trilobite’s perspective, the "little flying elephant octopus" looked utterly adorable.

Its ear blades flapped like "elephant ear blades," while large eyes sparkled with "innocent" light.

Whenever he saw this, Trilobite would sigh—cephalopods were both delicious and cute!

How could such lovable creatures be linked to those unspeakable "Great Old Ones"?

But magnify these "adorable beings" a hundredfold, a thousandfold, ten-thousandfold… and everything changed.

An enormous body soft as liquid; slimy skin covered in shifting, bizarre patterns; massive suckers armed with battleship-shredding hooks!

“Boom—Boom—Boom—!”

Fleshy fins resembling giant ears flapped violently, churning a raging flood of ether!

Most terrifying were those eyes—pupils like crescent-shaped voids!

Only dreadful "Outer Gods from the Ether" could unite so many sanity-blasting elements in one being!

“Outer God!”

“What the… hell!”

Colliding with the blood octopus Outer God made her scream in shock!

Yet unexpectedly…

“Yikes! Yikes!”

“Monsters! Monsters incoming!”

“Run! Run away!”

The blood octopus Outer God shrieked too, frantically flapping its "flesh fins" as it fled.

Their retreat sparked chaos among the "city’s" residents. Chaos erupted as everyone scrambled behind "houses."

“What’s happening?”

Albert Drake gazed around, bewildered.

She pondered: Meeting an Outer God, I—a mere mortal—only screamed without fleeing. But you are actual Outer Gods!

Embodiments of chaos and madness, once feared more than chaos deities by "ocean people" and "trading drifters" crossing Bubble Worlds.

Chaos deities gave warnings before attacking, but grotesque Outer Gods needed no reason.

Sometimes, they struck for amusement.

Now this…

“Did I do anything but shout?!”

Albert Drake scanned her attendants and secretary, utterly confused.

The secretary who’d roused her earlier coughed.

“Ahem,” she said.

“Ms. Albert Drake.”

"You’d better take a look in the mirror… I mean, you should see for yourself."

Though the second living saint could be fierce—often scolding people with bizarre comparisons—she blended in with her subordinates. Lacking much sense of sacredness, she carried a worldly charm instead.

Her underlings dared to speak to her in a down-to-earth manner.

"You almost said ‘piss on the ground to see your reflection’… whatever…"

Albert Drake didn’t mind.

She took the mirror, frowned, and studied herself.

"Hmm—heroic and gorgeous. That’s me!"

"Utterly stunning."

*Ahem…*

The secretary coughed again.

"What’s with the coughing?"

"Add some snot, and you’d look like a seaweed-chomping iguana!"

"Got asthma or what?"

"Spit it out."

The secretary nodded.

"Right."

"I meant you should examine your ‘avatar body’."

"Avatar body?"

"Ah…"

"Oh…"

At the mention of "avatar body," Albert Drake wilted.

She shut her eyes slightly, gloomily observing her divine form with holy power.

Slick and covered in odd slime—though this mucus was forged from Holy Light from the Sun, deflecting magic and absorbing spells—it still looked utterly grimy.

The eel-like avatar body coiled serpentine, lacking majesty but oozing gloom.

Of course, what truly scared off the blood octopus Outer God were her teeth.

Row upon row, each fang split into three sharp barbs.

This dense, orderly array of teeth looked vicious indeed.

Albert Drake felt less than thrilled about this upgrade.

Other living saints grew mightier and fairer with each ascension.

Why did she…

lose Sanity Points every time!?

Did the Giant God have some grand design!?

"Ha…"

"Now it seems the will of the Giant God was abundantly clear!"

"Boom—!"

Her enormous avatar body—which drained the SAN value of mortals and deities alike, filling them with terror—drifted slowly over the bizarre city.

Violent currents battered those peculiar "giant cup-shaped structures." Both the blood octopus Outer God and other grotesque Outer Gods raised their heads, watching the regal divine form glide past.

They felt the divine might radiating from that strange, slender body.

It swept slowly across the entire sea.

"Ha…"

"These ‘cup-shaped buildings’ aren’t ‘Giant God’s Towers’ like those in Valaharl. They’re nothing like the Themis Holy Tree or Far Reaching Star Holy Tree."

"They too are Outer Gods!"

"Outer Gods allied with the Giant God!"

"The Giant God actually gifted us a city built entirely by Outer Gods!"

"That means…"

"The Divine Realm!"

"A domain belonging to Outer Gods!"

"And I, Albert Drake—the Giant God’s second living saint…"

"A mortal!"

"Shall rule this place!"

This deduction shocked not only Albert Drake herself but everyone nearby, even stirring massive waves across the entire Soul Network!

"What!?"

"A mortal ruling deities!?"

"Don’t deities see us as mere dust!?"

"Would they ever accept our rule!?"

"Even a living saint nearing godhood remains mortal—just a ‘demigod’…"

"Unthinkable! This overturns all natural order and justice!"

The event struck without warning.

Ever since the Giant God descended and rescued the Themis people from chaos, human standing had risen swiftly across the realms.

All within a single generation!

Many mortals serving the Giant God barely grasped this shift.

To deities, it seemed utterly blasphemous.

Yet the myriad bizarre Outer Gods from the Ether didn’t have much to say about it.

These fellows respected the strong.

They only knew they couldn’t defeat the Giant God or the Giant God’s strange "avatar."

She radiated a powerful aura of the Giant God, and whenever she glided overhead, it felt as if the Giant God was personally present!

Perhaps deities like the blood octopus Outer God, skilled in magic, could use their formidable magic power to negotiate with this "avatar" of the Giant God and even defeat her.

But what was the point?

Could they handle the Giant God’s later retaliation?

Not to mention, this "Divine Realm" built by the "Ancient Outer Gods" also carried the Giant God’s essence and was very good for them to live and cultivate in.

For Outer Gods, this place was a wonderful paradise.

What if, by causing trouble, they got blacklisted by the Giant God and the "Ancient Outer Gods"? Then they would have nowhere to complain!

However, while the blood octopus Outer God and other odd Outer Gods were willing to accept the "Giant God’s avatar" as their ruler, it didn’t mean all deities were willing.

Soon…

"The Far Reaching Star Northwest Zone, coordinates 32, 65, 71…"

"High-energy reaction ahead!"

A scout ship up front sent back very bad news.

"The chaos reaction was…"

"Deep crimson!"

"It was confirmed the Chaos Demon God was attacking!"

"The energy level was…"

"Above average!"

"One…"

"Two…"

"Five!"

"It was a big attack from chaos!"

"Ah—!"

"Zii… zii…"

The Soul Network echoed screams.

It seemed that brave scout ship had met disaster.

Through Albert Drake’s eyes…

"Boom—Boom—Boom—!"

"Boom—!"

On the other side of the Ether Sea, many meteors suddenly fell!

They crashed hard toward the "Far Reaching Star Holy Tree"!

Albert Drake clenched her silver teeth.

"Tsk!"

"Couldn’t these demon brats let me be proud for a bit?"

"I hadn’t even left for long, and they were already trying to steal my home!"

"All units, retreat!"

"Full force to rescue the Far Reaching Star!"

Albert Drake’s urgent command echoed through the Soul Network.

But other voices came up in the Soul Network.

"Mortal! What you were doing was blasphemy!"

"Now I knew why Barbatos wanted to wipe out the Giant God faction!"

"I!"

"Malbasi, the fifth seat of the Chaos Council, was here! I meant to kill all you blasphemers trying to rise above deities while on this mission!"

"Go!"

"My avatar!"

"My subordinate officials!"
