Chapter 90: Mortals! Show Your Fangs to the Evil Deities!
"That is a demon god!"
"This magic pressure rivals Andumali’s from years past!"
"It’s councilor level!"
"Did its eye just get blown apart?"
The Soul Network was flooded with triumphant shouts.
Sulya had come prepared this time.
Ever since the net path breach by the "etheric serpent," Sulya—as supreme commander—kept her guard up. For this experiment, she brought all twenty-two battleships armed with "Thunder Smashing Claws."
The preparation proved crucial!
When the Giant God’s warning pulsed through the Soul Network, Sulya sensed the descending "thing," pinpointed its arrival coordinates, and laid an ambush.
Yet she never imagined their quarry would be a true Chaos Demon God!
A councilor-level powerhouse at that!
What stunned her more…
"A councilor-level powerhouse?"
"That’s all?"
The living saint stared at her hands in disbelief.
Her second body, the "Giant God’s Radiance," mirrored her shock—lifting its Limbs while its calcite-like eyes examined the Smashing Claw in bewilderment.
Moments earlier, Sulya’s reckless thunderstrike had obliterated the councilor-level demon god’s eyeball.
Divine blood drenched her frame; eyeballs slammed into her armor, rolling wildly across its surface.
"Roar—!"
The Chaos Demon God unleashed an earth-shattering howl.
She couldn’t believe a mortal—barely a demigod—could wound him so!
But soon, foreboding shadowed Sulya’s thoughts.
It darkened every battleship in this "testing journey."
"If this is a councilor-level demon god…"
"Have the chaos deities discovered the Giant God’s ‘net path’ plan!?"
"If so…"
The net path accommodated deities as colossal as the Giant God—councilor-level higher demons could traverse it too.
The image of demonic legions flooding their homeland through these passages made everyone—Sulya included—shudder.
Would the Giant God’s sacrifices be in vain!?
As triumph curdled into dread…
"Roar—!"
The armored high-tier demon god roared and launched a counterattack!
—-
Tasmar felt quite proud. Although one of his eyes had been exploded, he still had the other one.
Soon, a powerful healing magic eased the pain of losing his eyeball and sealed the wound.
It was time to strike back!
“Boom—!”
The enormous divine body, like a giant soft shell, lunged forward. With the jagged horn on its head, it charged viciously at the "strange insect god" that had burst its eye.
"Crack—screech—!"
The sharp impact grazed the hard shell, making a grinding sound.
But that was all it did.
The thick shell was harder than a Divine Body; the sharp armor didn’t even scratch the "Secondary God" shell!
“Oh?”
“Who would’ve thought a mere Secondary God could be so tough.”
“But it’s just toughness!”
The massive divine body stirred up a raging current as it charged ahead!
A collision! The most primal kind!
Both the clueless Secondary God and the even more clueless mortal battleships were sent flying in the crash!
They drifted helplessly in the etheric liquid, bumping into each other.
From the chaos perspective, one saw the panic coming from those "ships"!
“Mortal cricket, thinking you can oppose me, is still too… what!?”
Tasmar’s joy stopped abruptly.
He realized the human fleet was regrouping under that Secondary God’s lead!
—-
“Bang—!”
“Uh…”
“The battleship’s hull is damaged! Hull damaged!”
“Damage control, get here now!”
“Water flooding in compartments three and five! Seal them off immediately!”
The demon god, now serious, was still a very dangerous and scary enemy.
The Soul Network filled instantly with panicked cries for help!
But just then…
“Buzz—!”
Golden energy enveloped all the battleships and spread through the Soul Network.
It soothed every sailor’s heart like sunlight warming the earth.
Fear brought by the Chaos Demon God melted swiftly, vanishing like snow under the blazing sun.
Every heart burned with fervor!
"This is the loving gaze of the Giant God!"
"Heavens! The Giant God doesn’t blame our recklessness! He’s forgiven our sins!"
"Instead…"
"He’s watching us with hope in his eyes!"
Morale was crucial; once restored, the crew calmed and everything fell into place.
"Blood sacrifice for the Giant God! Offerings to the divine throne!"
"Everyone, listen up!"
"This etheric liquid and Primal Mud environment makes external offensive magic tricky for a demon god of his level!"
"That’s our edge!"
"Gather together!"
"Use the hook-like structures on those Limbs to lock yourselves tightly!"
Sulya commanded through the Soul Network. Twenty-two battleships equipped with Smashing Claws reformed one by one.
"Perfect!"
"Now, prepare… charge!"
"Whoosh—!"
Over twenty battleships united, launching a fearless charge at the Chaos Demon God!
This time, the Chaos Demon God froze in utter confusion.
—-
"Impossible…"
"If she were a demigod, shouldn’t she flee in terror?"
"Mortals…"
"Should’ve dropped dead from fright!"
"How dare they charge at me!?"
Tasmar gaped as the Secondary God led the battleship fleet toward him!
Their momentum genuinely stunned him.
This was beyond any scenario he’d encountered.
But swiftly, he steeled himself.
"Hah, mere petty tricks!"
"Don’t think you can defeat me with just this little courage and power!"
"What can mere willpower achieve!?"
"However…"
Seeing these fearless mortals, Tasmar grew somewhat serious.
"Mortals unafraid of chaos are no ordinary mortals!"
"I must strike hard!"
"Buzz…"
Massive magic power gathered around him.
"Though forbidden spells are hard to cast due to etheric liquid’s neutralizing effect and Primal Mud’s interference, I can still unleash a quasi-forbidden spell to destroy this mortal fleet!"
"And you’re all clumped together!"
"Perfect targets!"
"Seeking death—!"
"Buzz——!"
Overwhelming magic power concentrated, poised for release.
Yet at that instant…
"Buzz——!"
The tightly clustered mortal fleet suddenly scattered!
Though narrow compared to the Giant God, the net path remained spacious enough for Tasmar and these warships.
Ships abruptly accelerated, darting upward, downward, and sideways to deftly evade the impending spell.
"Damn it!"
Tasmar felt mocked by mere mortals, fueling his fury.
But worse followed!
Those warships grabbed his tail, abdomen, and limbs, then…
"Bang!"
"Thud!"
They swung Smashing Claws, hammering fiercely at Tasmar’s joints, belly, and tail-tip!
"It hurts—!"
"You brats!"
"Boom——! Boom——! Boom——!"
He thrashed wildly, trying to dislodge the audacious mortals!
Though their bites lacked force to inflict real damage, the humiliation cut deep!
Tasmar burned with rage.
"Buzz——!"
The magic power gathered at the front spread throughout the body, strengthening the Divine Body and resisting the attacks of the little bugs!
The Limbs of the Divine Body sprang into action too, rubbing against each other and scraping off the clinging human battleships one by one.
"Bang——!"
Sharp Limbs kicked fiercely. Though they couldn’t harm the leading Secondary God, they punched straight through other battleships!
One mortal battleship after another fell silent; nine were brutally kicked aside, unable to keep attacking.
The losses were heavy!
Tasmar even stabbed a large Trilobite battleship’s eye with one Limb; a tiny figure drifted out from the wreckage…
His furious gaze fixed on that "little person."
It was a woman, clutching a wisp of Holy Light in a throwing stance!
"Buzz——!"
The Holy Light shot forward.
But…
"Bang——!"
It barely did any damage.
Yet it was deeply insulting!
"Pointless struggle!"
"I’ll crush you!"
"Roar——!"
Tasmar tried to charge, but the remaining battleships held him back fiercely!
This enraged him!
He’d wipe out these mortals eventually, but he hadn’t expected it to drag on this long!
"Etheric serpent!"
"Where did you go!?"
The etheric serpent Tasmar hired wasn’t just for digging tunnels.
It should’ve been beside the Chaos Demon God earlier, attacking the mortal fleet—yet it had vanished!
Now that the employer called, the mercenary ought to show up, right?
It did appear…
"Thud——!"
Something heavy plunged into the murky etheric liquid.
