The battle between Joel Gardman and the Dragon of Chaos is becoming more and more boring, but the battle in the Kingdom of the Harvest Goddess is becoming more and more intense and exciting.
As time goes by, the evil gods have gradually adapted to the rules of the Kingdom of the Harvest Goddess, and no longer need to use a large amount of power for defense. If many evil gods had scruples before and only used 40 to 50% of their 100% strength, then now even the most conservative evil gods have used 70% to 80% of their strength, and some have even used all their strength. , vividly demonstrating their power to rival the gods.
If nothing else, you can see clearly just by looking at the "circles" formed by the radiation of power around their bodies. When they first broke into the Kingdom of the Harvest Goddess, because they were not adapted to the rules of the surrounding environment, the evil gods almost did not hesitate to expend their power to form a huge circle around their bodies, using their own power to reject the laws of the Kingdom of the Harvest Goddess. to ensure your own safety. Now they have all given up this approach, not because they lack strength, but because they have fully adapted to the environment and no longer need to worry about being hindered.
To create your own "environment" in someone else's kingdom of God, the amount of effort required is astonishing. And when this power is put into attack, the effect is equally astonishing.
The Harvest Goddess, who could barely withstand the attack before, is now retreating steadily. His divine envoys died quickly and were resurrected quickly, but they could not withstand the offensive of the evil gods. Even the Harvest Goddess herself, who was the backbone, could no longer withstand the joint attack of the two evil gods of the Machine Realm, and had to retreat step by step.
The speed of His retreat was not fast, and the Kingdom of God was large enough, but every step He took back was difficult and painful. It was like walking on a cliff of ten thousand feet, and he might fall to pieces at any time.
More importantly, as a great God who is absolutely trusted by all believers and divine envoys, every step he takes to retreat has dealt a huge blow to the confidence of believers and divine envoys, and has also dealt a heavy blow to their morale. Although their morale could have been at full level, but they were hit again and again... Maybe after a while, the God's envoys will be fine, and some of the believers will escape.
So the Harvest Goddess didn’t want to step back, not even a step.
He warned himself again and again: "Monitor, you can't retreat any longer. If you continue to retreat, you will have nowhere to go!"
However, He still retreated time and time again.
He has thought about it more than once, just stand here and fight to the death, either die or win, and never take a step back. But when it came time to be seriously injured or even killed if he didn't retreat, he still couldn't muster the determination to fight and finally retreated.
Back again and again.
Later, he gradually no longer felt that retreating was a problem. He was even considering whether to run away while the current situation was still good.
Abandoning the Kingdom of God and escaping would cause extremely huge damage to the gods. At the very least, it will cause the godhood to drop to the bottom, directly to the level of weak divine power. Secondly, there will be many other injuries, and even the priesthood may not be stable and he will be separated directly.
A god with weak divine power will immediately perish if he loses his priesthood.
Therefore, the choice of "abandoning the Kingdom of God and running away" is only slightly better to the gods than dying on the spot. Unless they are sure that they have a reliable thigh to hug and can quickly receive a large amount of divine power after escaping, most gods would rather die in battle than abandon the kingdom of God and flee.
The Harvest Goddess originally thought that she would be one of them.
But when "fall" truly appeared in front of him, turning from imagination into a reality, he realized that he was still afraid of death after all.
Even if there is only a small chance, He does not want to die.
And his chance is not just a little bit, but a big one - as an important member of the natural god system, as long as he escapes back to the kingdom of the main god of the natural god system, he has many friends who are willing to help him, so he doesn't have to worry about lacking divine power at all.
So, do you want to run away now
But He couldn't bear it.
This kingdom of God is the result of tens of thousands of years of hard work. It has reserves of massive divine power and countless believers and divine envoys. Without it, he suddenly fell from a veteran strongman with medium divine power to a lonely person with weak divine power. Not only was his status completely different, but it was also impossible to recover his strength.
Since ancient times, how many gods who have abandoned the Kingdom of God and fled have been able to make a comeback
Three? Or two
He could give an example. The God of Knights was once defeated by the orc gods in the Kingdom of God, and he couldn't even find a thigh to hug. He struggled alone and faced countless prying eyes. , on the other hand, he has to protect human beings who are harmed by various disasters and monsters, and he lives in an extremely embarrassed life.
But the God of Knights finally survived, not only rebuilding the Kingdom of God, but also protecting the entire human race and slowly gaining a foothold. Finally, he selected an outstanding successor and entrusted the status of the Lord God to him, while he became an assistant.
Now humans have become bigger and stronger, and are undoubtedly one of the most powerful races in the entire universe. Compared to the time when the God of Knights was so down and out that he didn't even have the Kingdom of God, it really makes people sigh that things are impermanent.
… However, the God of Knights has now fallen.
(Bah! What bad luck!)
The Harvest Goddess vomited secretly in her heart and put away the unlucky thoughts.
But he still didn't think about whether he should run away now.
He has never been a far-sighted or decisive god. As a god of faith, He places his trust in the yearning for a "good harvest" of various farming nations in the world. To put it bluntly, He is essentially a large farmer.
He may have been wise and decisive back then, but that was all in the past tense. Just like the previous goddess of the sea, she was once a gentle and strong guardian, but in the end, as the years passed, she was eroded by countless beliefs and eventually degenerated into a violent villain.
The situation of the Harvest Goddess is not much better.
He knew clearly that he could not win, and the best choice was to run away now, but he just couldn't bear it.
This is the nature of farmers. There are often soldiers who abandon everything and run away when they see danger, and there are also businessmen who do this, but there are very few farmers who do this.
Unless they have no choice but to reach the end of their rope, farmers always harbor fantasies, always have to wait, and always hope to wait until hope comes.
Sometimes they really wait for hope, but more often, until the end, they are just desperate.
The Harvest Goddess is currently in a state of "waiting". She keeps "waiting" and "waiting", and is constantly defeated by the evil gods, constantly losing precious reserves of divine power.
In the Pantheon, Tefana, the main god of the natural god system, "King of the Sky", and Hainar, the "Mother of the Earth" who was second only to him in the natural god system, all frowned.
As ancient gods of nature, they have always been cautious in accepting their faith, and the extent of being eroded by their faith is not serious. What time has shown in them is more foresight. Although they are not known for their wisdom, as long as they grasp the general trend and develop bit by bit, time will ultimately be on the side of the strong.
The two powerful gods have already seen the dilemma of the Harvest Goddess. Now she is completely wasting time and energy. If she doesn't run quickly, it won't take long before she can even run away.
Ordinarily, at this time, they should send out avatars to help. With the abilities of these two powerful gods, as long as they send out two fighting incarnations with all their strength, even if they cannot repel those evil gods, they can at least help the Harvest Goddess stabilize the situation. If you find one or two more helpers, it's not impossible to turn defeat into victory.
But neither the King of the Sky nor the Mother of the Earth meant this. They just watched quietly without saying a word to help.
Although they did not prevent the gods of the natural gods from coming to support, the forest gods, spring goddesses, river gods, etc., who were under them in the natural gods and had medium powers, had already sent their incarnations to help protect them, and they had all has been repulsed. As for weak or even weak divine powers, even if they want to help, they will be persuaded to do so.
Unless the god's true body attacks, the power of the incarnation will ultimately be weaker than that of the true body. There are some gods who are good at fighting, such as the God of Justice Yorgardman, who is fighting a fierce battle with the Dragon of Chaos. His skills are very powerful, and his fighting incarnation is not much weaker than his real body, and even has the same powerful level of divine power, but for ordinary people For gods with medium divine power or lower level, even the combat incarnation is usually one level lower than the real body.
For a god with medium divine power, his combat incarnation is equivalent to a weak divine power, and he can finally be put to use. The fighting incarnations of weak gods and gods only have weak levels of divine power and can no longer help much. As for the weak divine power... Hey, have you come thousands of miles away to kill someone
In fact, in the kingdom of the main god of the natural god system, several medium-level gods are regrouping their strength and preparing to send out the strongest fighting incarnation together to try to turn the tide of the war in one fell swoop!
But they are all waiting, waiting for the outcome of the battle between Joel Gardman and the Dragon of Chaos.
The level of this battle is too high, and medium powers are not even qualified to intervene. They can only wait.
If the God of Justice wins, then even if He is exhausted and unable to fight anymore, as long as there is no Dragon of Chaos, these natural gods feel that their side still has a slight chance of winning. And if even the God of Justice is defeated, then even if the Chaos Dragon does not participate in the siege of the Harvest Goddess, just because he is in charge, naturally the gods will not be able to even enter the Harvest Goddess's kingdom, let alone support it.
The war between gods is like this. Although the gods below are fighting lively, the messengers and believers are fighting with excitement, but what really determines the outcome of the war is actually the confrontation between the powerful gods at the top. .
This is somewhat similar to the situation on earth. For example, the small countries in the Middle East are fighting each other upside down, and from time to time they break out all kinds of sensational and thrilling news. But in fact, for the big countries that are aloof, it is nothing more than a small trick to fight in the air. . If a big country really takes action, even if it is just a slap in the face, those forces that seemed so powerful before will be in a panic, and there will be no other solution except shouting "Dad, help me!"
The poor Harvest Goddess is now facing this dilemma. For her, "Dad" is naturally the two powerful gods of the sky and the earth. However, because he once had a sneak peek at the status of the main god of the natural god system, these two powerful gods did not welcome him and had no intention of rescuing him. Among other powerful divine powers, only the God of Justice acts righteously, but it is still not enough.
If this continues, all that is waiting for Him is escape or death.
... No, because of His procrastinating attitude and indecisive character, when it comes to "last resort", I'm afraid there is no chance of escape.
All that is waiting for Him is death!
