Chapter 415: Arise, Arise, Arise!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Boom!
It was as if a bomb had been detonated in the calm waters of a lake, causing huge ripples to emerge.
Under the watchful eyes of millions of creatures, Moore stood on Hope One, his fur bristling in anger. His body was surrounded by golden and blue bolts of lightning that extended up to the sky.
On the basis of size alone, Moore, who was only slightly taller than a human, could not be compared with the imposing deities in the sky.
However, at this moment, after shouting such an arrogant and domineering line, his burning spirit made every creature that saw him “ignite”!
Undoubtedly, humans had gained the upper hand in their first encounter with the gods.
This was an unprecedented phenomenon.
The gods behind the Five Royal Clans could easily destroy any clan without a true god; they would encounter very little resistance or sometimes even none at all.
However, on the present wasteland, an exception had appeared.
The gods behind the Five Royal Clans had descended upon the wasteland. Only
their incarnations had stepped foot into this land but, to the weak humans,
they were still “mysterious entities” that were difficult to fight against.
When they appeared, those foreigm clans who had the backing of their own
gods made a “call” immediately.
They anxiously reported the current situation of the wasteland to the gods
behind them, but the response they received was…
A long sigh.
There were ranks even in the realm of the gods.
There was no doubt that the Five Royal Clans were strong. The true gods
behind them were also among the strongest.
As the incarnations of these five gods descended, all the gods who were
watching the wasteland agreed that the creatures on the wasteland would be
wiped out ina very short period of time.
One had to pay a high price to freeze the surface of the ocean. Even they would
feel the strain and costs of such an action.
As the five gods had the nerve to do so, it meant they were already assured of
their victory!
Based on this, all the gods that were observing boldly estimated when the land
would be destroyed, basing their estimations on their previous experience
Some guessed that it would happen after five minutes, some guessed that it
would happen after three minutes. Some even guessed that it would take place
one minute from now.
Their experience would have been useful if such a scenario had played out
before today.
Currently, though, the shocking scene that unfolded in front of them was
totally beyond their imagination!
The weak humans were actually confronting the gods in the heavens!
“Humans, your ignorance and arrogarnce has aroused my interest. I am curious.
Where does your confidence come from?”
“Are you relying on the pseudo god behind you, whose strength has been
depleted?”
The buzzing voice echoed across the sky.
Only, this time the voice no longer belonged to the Cursed Tiger ancestor god,
but to the strongest of the five, the Thunder Monkey!
Things were different from the last time.
The Heavenly Dog Pseudo God could only perform one physical attack after
descending, and its attack range was limited to only five kilometers.
Its descent would not impact the wasteland heavily, and would not be able to
drastically affect the number of creatures on the wasteland.
Therefore, the game at the time did not give out a full range of buffs and
bonuses to all creatures.
This time, however.. It was obvious that the Five True Gods wanted to destroy
the game and all creatures, so that everything would start over once again
They had broken the rules of the game by appearing here, and torn the “veil”
covering the wasteland to shreds!
For the game, who had tried to make itself out to be an omnipotent creator,
this was equivalent to a smack to the face.
As such, the game issued an all-attribute buff that was set to the maximum of
what was allowed.
The intensity of the buff even made Oreo, who only had divinity but no
strength, regain a little strength.
Although this strength was not enough to save humankind, it still had an
effect. To the five true gods’ incarmations in the heavens
Su Mo was no longer an ordinary character that they could wipe out at will!
He had become stronger:
To the extent that even the Five True Gods found him to be a difficult
Opponent
They fell silent momentarily. Seeing that Su Mo did not make any movements
and only continued to stare straight at them, the Crystal Dragon in the sky did
not hold back and boomed out again, “Su Mo, since you have a pseudo god by
your side, you should know how much difference there really is between the
Heavenly Dog and us!”
“Tll admit that this pseudo god can protect you, even if she is weak, but you
should know that there are billions of your kind on this wasteland. Even if you
can survive, it does not mean that they can survive. Do you want to watch them
die and then live alone on this wasteland until the end of your life?”
“Then what?
As if Crystal Dragon’s words had touched him, Su Mo, who was the focus of
everyone’s attention, spoke slowly with a touch of playfulness on his face.
Through the system panel, Su Mo could clearly see the abilities possessed by
the incarnations of these true gods
The Cursed Tiger and the Shaoxing Dog had the same ability. If they caused
everyone to fall into despair, they could spread a wide-ranging spiritual curse
among their enemies.
The ability of the Primordial Pig was slightly different. For its ability to work, a
certain “desire” in the minds of the targeted creatures had to reach a very high
value, after which it could multiply that “desire” by a thousand times to ten
thousand times, thus causing internal chaos within their bodies that would
backfire on the creatures themselves
As for the remaining two, the ‘Thunder Monkey and Crystal Dragon, their
ability was obviously stronger than the first three.
As long as the strongest person from the other group surrendered, they would
be able to dictate the life and death of that group.
The five gods, surprisingly, did not choose to launch physical attacks.
In a sense, given their current abilities, their relationship was that of fellow
competitors rather than cooperating partners.
However, one thing was certain. In order to implement their abilities, they had
to first move the mountain standing in front of the humans.
The mountain named “Su Mo”!
“Within two months, you have become so strong that you are able to engage in
a conversation with us on equal terms. Su Mo, you’re good! Your strength, your
potential, and your abilities are rare. Even within my clan, you would be
classified as a genius that only appears once in a thousand years!”
“Your clan is lucky to have a strong person like you!”
“Now, we are willing
íve you a chance. If you are willing to surrender to me,
to the Thunder Monkey Clan, I can make the decision to talke you back to the
Divine World, and you can even take half of your clan members with you.”
“In that place, there are no periodic disasters. Everyone will be able to enjoy
long lives and will no longer have to suffer from the tortures of decaying flesh.
As long as they are willing to work hard, everyone can achieve the status of
True God!”
“We come with good intentions! The game is our common enemy!”
Wow!
As the strongest of the Five True Gods, the Thunder Monkey had remained
silent until now, but shocked everyone when he spoke!
His voice seemed to echo across the entire wasteland, shaking the seawater
below the layer of ice, causing the surface to show signs of cracking
Lightning bristled on every hair on his head, rising and falling amidst the
clouds!
The first thing that shocked all the creatures was not his majestic appearance,
but rather the unbelievable conditions that he had stated.
Those generous conditions!
The opportunity to leave the wasteland, to live a long life, and achieve True
God status.
For the humans on the wasteland, even a single one of those three conditions
would have been snatched up by the clamoring crowd!
Now, as long as Su Mo nodded and was willing to surrender..
Half of the human beings on the entire wasteland could be taken away, and
they would be able to enjoy the stated “benefits”!
Under such tempting conditions, the comments screen in the live broadcast
stream exploded within three seconds!
Choose me, choose me! Almighty Su, take me please! Let me live, I am willing
to be your slave!”
“I want it, I want it too. Take me, please take me!”
I don’t want to die! Almighty Su, don’t leave me bełhind, I’l get on my knees
for you! Don’t abandon us!”
“This is just the foreign races’ devilish scheme! Don’t be fooled by them.
Almighty Su won’t abandon us and leave by himself!
“Eternal life! Who can refuse the temptation of leaving this hellish place? The
gods of foreign races don’t need to deceive us! They are willing to take us
away!”
“After the ‘Real Survival version of the game starts, we’ll die anyway. We might
as well go with them!”
“If they can descend here, they can definitely return! They’re willing to take us
with them!
With just a few light-hearted promises from the Thunder Monkey, the
collective group of humans, who had wanted to fight to the death against the
foreign races, was instantly divided and collapsed.
The means that the Thunder Monkey used were very despicable, but they
worked very well!
As a deity who had lived for an untold number of years, he understood the
desires within every wasteland creature’s heart
Driven by this desire, as many as a billion humans had fallen into madness.
However, about twenty percent of humans still maintained a rational
perspective
Faced with the constant dangers presented by life on the wasteland, this “olive
branch” given by the gods was like poison wrapped in honey!
The humans were not afraid that Almighty Su would reject this offer.
What they were afraid of was that..
Almighty Su agreed but did not take them with him!
To destroy an enemy, one must first make them lose heart
The countless human beings had fought against the foreign races, who were
injured in the process, and yet did not even flinch;
The humans who had resisted the natural disasters, who exhausted themselves
to the brink of death every day, who did not give up hope for the future;
The humans who steered broken rafts, dragged their families with them, and
did not give up even though they almost collapsed from fatigue.
ll of them were defeated at this moment..
The defenses of their hearts were shattered!
They fell to their knees, kmelt on both knees, and slammed their heads on the
wooden raft boards witha crack, and blood flowed non-stop!
They knew that the Almighty Su might not see them kneeling, but they didn’t
want to give up on any glimmer of hope.
They did not want to remain passive when it came to a matter involving their
life and death!
Perhaps kneeling down did not mean that they had lost their dignity…
Perhaps kneeling down was a show of their final resistance in front of the
bleak options presented to them!
“Su Mo, don’t agree to their conditions! There is evidence from the ruins that
we have discovered that these gods won’t be as kind as they say. They must
have something up their sleeves. If we agree, we will completely lose our
advantage!”
“Su Mo, don’t fall for their divisive scheme! If they can take half of humanity
with them, they can certainly take all of them! They’re lying. Don’t be
overwhelmed! Think about the ordinary foreign races who also came from
those mysterious worlds! They aren’t immortal, are they?”
“Leader, the choice is in your hands, we villagers will support you
unconditionally, but.. we’re also human. If we give up on them, can we still be
considered human?”
“Brother Su, they can’t help you. They want us all dead. Don’t be afraid, as long
as you’re alive, we humans will still survive! We still have billions of people
who have yet to arrive at this wasteland. We still have old people, we still have
children, we still have hope!”
At this moment, countless similar messages popped up in Su Mo’s private
messag
Unlike those who commented on the comments screen, these people kmew Su
Mo well. They were not worried that Su Mo would not take them with him in
case he chose to go.
However, almost all of them chose to..
Convince Su Mo not to accept!
The dilemma he was currently in was evident. In the eyes of the five true gods
in the sky, Su Mo was now caught in the middle.
They smiled triumphantly, like roosters crowing, and continued to press him.
“‘Su Mo, make a choice! Look around you. Look at this land. You will be the one
to decide their fate!”
“will you give everyone up and live on your owm in this world, or will you take
them with you and go to a new World to start a new erar
“Tll give you one minute to think about it!”
Half of the people in the ‘Tundra fleet had knelt down and were kowtowing
The captains were shouting, and Lu Yongyi fired his pistol into the air
furiously, but the people did not listen to them. They were prostrated on the
deck, staring dead ahead at the tiny figures on the bow of Hope One.
Was it because they could not stand up?
No.
It was because they were afraid of Su Mo.
They knelt down!
A minute was not long
After about 20 seconds or so, Su Mo, who initially looked like he had been
petrified’, finally came back to his senses.
He first looked at all the kneeling humans in the Tundra Fleet and the
expressions on their faces.
Then he took a look at the Battle Flag of Hope at the bow of the ship, which had
been previously shining brightly, but now only emitted a dull glow.
He stepped forward as if to say something, but finally shook his head, touched
the Battle Flag of Hope, and returned to a spot at the center of the main deck
With only thirty seconds left for him to make his final choice, and with
everyone watching, Su Mo did not give his answer, but he put down the
three-pointed two-edged sword in his hand, tossing it aside.
Had he given up?
As the three-pointed two-edged sword clattered on the deck with a dull sound,
every human who wanted to go to war stumbled to the ground as if they had
lost their strength.
They were more desolate than the humans who had fallen to their knees.
However, before they could cry out in anger, they suddenly saw a ray of light
shooting up!
From the highest point of Hope One, a ray of white light rose like the sun!
The encroaching darkness disappeared instantly when this light shone, like
snow melting under the sunlight!
Why was this light colorless, yet full of vitality?
Why was everyone filled with endless anger in their hearts, like a dam about to
overflow, at the sight of this blinding light?
It was because…
The roar of..
Almighty Su of humankind.
Could finally be heard!
“Arise!
