Zhao Hai looked at the battle-ready Divine Will City . To be honest, he had come to admire the Divines . Not giving up until this point wasn’t easy .
But although Zhao Hai held admiration towards them, they were still his enemy . Naturally, he wouldn’t hold back .
Zhao Hai urged the Hell King’s ship to slowly head near Divine Will City . After he reached some distance away, he stopped then said, “Divine Will City, I want to talk with your leader . ” The Taurus Divines in the city were preparing for an intense battle . Nobody thought that Zhao Hai would actually have words to say . Nobody responded for a while but after some time, an old sounding voice was heard, “Taurus Divine Patriarch, Maurice, has seen Mister Zhao Hai . ” Along with his words was a Domain Weapon slowly rising from the city . It was a sword-shaped Domain Weapon . Standing on top of it was a magnificently armored man . His hair and beard were both white and his bearing was astonishing . Although his Domain Weapon couldn’t compare to the Hell King’s ship, his imposing presence was no less than Zhao Hai . [1]
It was quite like Zhao Hai . If there was no war, then this person might not have been quite notable .
Zhao Hai looked at Maurice before he gave a slight bow and said, “Patriarch Maurice, hello . I want to talk about the current situation . With how things are right now, the Taurus Divines can do nothing, there’s no use for defending your city . I want to ask Patriarch Maurice to think about surrendering . I can personally guarantee your safety and I will not treat you as slaves . ”
Maurice was looking at Zhao Hai with eyes full of hatred . After hearing Zhao Hai’s words, he laughed and said, “Zhao Hai, don’t think that you’ve won . The Taurus Divines will not fall . One day, you will all die!” Zhao Hai looked at the maddened Maurice and frowned . It seems like his appeal was a failure . The hatred on Maurice’s eyes could be clearly seen At this point, it was impossible for there to be a peaceful ending to the Taurus Continent’s war .
Zhao Hai took a deep breath and said, “Patriarch Maurice really made this Zhao Hai speechless . The result of the war has been decided by you, I hope you’re ready to shoulder the consequences . Please head back, we will be attacking soon . ”

Maurice looked at Zhao Hai for a moment before he snorted and returned to the city . At this time, the Thunder Clan Patriarch standing behind Zhao Hai said, “Mister, you’re wasting your time on Maurice . That person is a complete lunatic . He will never recognize defeat, his arrogance is basically bordering craziness . ” Zhao Hai smiled bitterly and said, “The war has taken too many lives, I don’t want to add more . It’s a pity that peaceful means are impossible . We can only fight . Let’s go according to our previous tactic . I will break their shield and use the undead as the vanguard . ” Then the group nodded .
Zhao Hai didn’t delay . After negotiations have failed, there was nothing else to do but fight . Zhao Hai commanded the ship to rush forward . The Divines in the city were prepared for this, but they still underestimated the speed of the ship . It was too fast that it almost instantly appeared outside the city when it was just quite a distance away a moment ago . Before the Divines could react, the ship had already rammed itself into Divine Will City’s shield .
Because of the ship’s speed, there was no time to reinforce the shields . After getting rammed, the shield immediately broke .
Zhao Hai naturally wouldn’t let go of this opportunity . The cannons of the ship immediately attacked as large quantities of undead appeared in the city .
Although the Divines had met this attack many times, they still couldn’t grasp a counter to Zhao Hai’s attack .
However, Divine Will City wasn’t this easy to deal with . Although it’s shield has been broken, had received the Hell King’s ship’s cannon attack, and was overrun by undead, the sheer number of soldiers inside the city was a problem . Tens of millions of soldiers crowded the city for the decisive battle . This allowed them to block Zhao Hai’s surprise attack . While the Divines were battling it out with the undead, the Divines on the walls proceeded to fire their cannons towards the various armies outside the city .
Zhao Hai was aware of this situation, but he wasn’t worried . The number of undead in his hands right now was more than the soldiers inside Divine Will City . Therefore, there was no need to be afraid . He didn’t stop releasing undead as he gained more and more ground inside the city .

The battle immediately became heated at the very beginning . Those left in Divine Will City were people very loyal to the Taurus Royal Family . And with the Patriarch personally taking command, these people were already resolved to die in battle . This caused the casualties from the attacking allied army to also mount up .
The first minute of battle already caused deaths on both sides . The Divines used their entire flesh and blood in resisting the attackers . Zhao Hai couldn’t deny the fact that these Divines were truly brave and fearless . However, these people were his enemies, they didn’t merit Zhao Hai’s mercy .
The fight went on . This was the most bloody battle that Zhao Hai had experienced . Everyone involved seem to go mad . Their eyes were blood red as their bodies were covered with blood . The weapons in their hands swung endlessly . One would either kill the enemy or be hacked to death .
There were only a few participants in this battle who managed to keep a calm mind . The undead were already emotionless . The only thing they existed for at this time was to kill .
The situation had devolved into a complete brawl . Even Zhao Hai knew that using magic cannons at this time was impossible unless he would risk killing people on his own side .
But Zhao Hai didn’t worry . Although there were more than 20 Domain Weapons on the enemy side, he also had the same number in his hands . Domain Weapon experts on both sides were evenly matched .
Zhao Hai didn’t participate in the battle, at the same time, no Divine went for him . They knew that it would be impossible to kill Zhao Hai . The Divines were also aware that they would lose, they were just making their final struggle .
Time passed, one hour, two hours, three hours… . One day, two days, the war was still going on . Three days had passed and the battle still going . Atkept this time, the entire Divine Will City was turned into a pool of black, brown, and red liquid . The fighting strength of those present were already affected after three days of zero nourishment . However, nobody stopped from waving their swords at their enemies .
Finally, when the curtains of the night descended, the last enemy was killed, formally ending the resistance of the Taurus Divines .
At this time, the combatants immediately fell to the ground; only the undead were left standing . Zhao Hai was still looking at Divine Will City on top of the Hell King’s Ship . No Divine surrendered in this fight, nobody escaped, they fought until the last soldier . However, this didn’t have an impact on Zhao Hai . War is war, no matter how tragic it was, war would need to go on .
Zhao Hai waved his hand to take all the Divine corpses inside the city . Then he waved once more as a huge ball of water appeared on top of the city . This ball drizzled water on the city, washing away all the filth .
Divine Will City had been completely destroyed . Hardly any building was left untouched . There were weapons strewn everywhere along with some cut limbs .
Soldiers lying down felt the rain falling . The rain was warm, reminding them of a hot bath . The rain was very comfortable . As they were lying there, the felt their strength slowly returning . Their sore limbs started to recover as well .
They couldn’t help but open their eyes and look at the huge ball of water up in the sky . The ball was not far from the Hell King’s ship . At this moment, the sun was proceeding to go down in the west, dying the ball in golden yellow hue . The originally golden Hell King’s ship had its color further enhanced, looking incomparably holy in their eyes .
The scene made the exhausted soldiers lie down for much longer . They don’t want to move as they just looked at the Hell King’s ship, a bit of reverence appeared in their eyes .
Zhao Hai looked into the state of Divine Will City . The ball of water was taken out of the hot spring . The water was initially hot, but as it drizzled into the city it began to cool down . After the droplets reached the ground, it had already reached a temperature that was comfortable for those lying down .
The bloodstains of the city began to be washed away . Although the city was critically destroyed, its sewage system was kept intact . Because of this, the water began to flow out of the city, cleaning it bit by bit .
The water not only bathed the soldiers, it healed their wounds as well . There were various soldiers in Divine Will City who noticed their wounds closing up .
After seeing that there were no bloodstains left in the city, Zhao Hai stopped the rain . At this time, several shadows began to fly towards the Hell King’s ship . There was no need for Zhao Hai to look to see that it was the Great Demon King and the others .
The fight involved more than 200 million people . The Taurus Divines had more than 60 million troops while the alliance army had more than 140 million troops altogether . .
The Taurus Divines were completely wiped out, nobody surrendered . On Zhao Hai’s side, Zhao Hai lost more than 20 million undead . The Thunder Clan lost 5 million, the Pegasus Clan lost 7 million and the Barbarians lost about 14 million . Since only the Great Demon King and the Demon Dragon King participated, the Demons lost nobody . As for the team of Foreign God-ranks, the originally 1000 people were reduced to less than a hundred .
It said Patriarch, not King, but let’s just assume that .
