Chapter 2415 - 1071: Godhood Form (2)
This is merely a feeling from the depths.The Ghoul King showed no changes, yet he seemed different, particularly in Gaven’s eyes.
He was no longer a rootless duckweed; if he wanted to use the Undead Divine Power to transform him, he would face not only the Ghoul King’s own counterattack but also that of the immense being behind him.
This transformation gave the Ghoul King full confidence, and he shouted loudly: "Ceasefire, from now on, we ghouls are free, no longer accepting the subjugation of the jackalweres, and will no longer fight for him."
The Divine Nature Incarnation that had been stalling with the three Advanced Undead Lords instantly transformed into strands of divine light and returned to the true form of the Ghoul King.
Demonstrating their sincerity with real actions.
"Lord Uthgar, hold your hand for a moment!" Gaven loudly stopped the Father of Combat, who was still maintaining an aggressive stance.
"Demons are not to be trusted, especially such evil beings who feast on their own kind." Father of Combat Uthgar displayed an extraordinary animosity towards the Ghoul King.
And there is a reason for this animosity.
The cannibalistic faith of the Ghoul King has a greater market among those impoverished and needy creatures.
The Uthgar Barbarians, as a nomadic tribe, have limited disaster-bearing capabilities. A slight natural disaster or man-made calamity could cause food shortages.
The demon priests of the Ghoul King might whisper in the dark, leading many Uthgar Barbarians down a path of no return towards corruption.
"We currently do not have the power to slay two Demon Lords at once, and can only choose one." Gaven patiently communicated, "Compared to the Ghoul King, the King of the Jackalweres poses a greater threat.
As long as we can ensure our believers have sufficient food, the cannibalistic creed of the Ghoul King will find it hard to exploit any loopholes.
Trust me, once I return to Felen, I will definitely find a suitable path of development for your race, ensuring they want for nothing."
Starting with faith is the simplest way to persuade the True Gods.
It works every time.
This time is no exception.
The Father of Combat decisively halted the Giant Battleaxe, responding in a muffled voice: "I trust you!"
He was taking great risks in allowing his true form to descend into the Bottomless Abyss.
It was not merely the temptation of the King of the Jackalweres’ Divine Nature Incarnation but also due to the immense potential this young man had already shown.
Merely by binding deeply with him, Lady Strategy had, in just a few short years, raced from a demigod towards the realm of Minor Divine Power.
To say he wasn’t envious would be self-deception.
A fortunate opportunity presented itself, and he would hardly let it slip by, especially with great gifts involved.
Though the Father of Combat withdrew his attack, his muscles remained tense, poised to unleash a Thunderous Strike should the Ghoul King show the slightest change.
When dealing with these Demon Lords, one can never be too cautious.
The separated battle groups showed that neither the King of the Minotaurs, Gaven’s Advanced Undead Lords, nor the Queen of the Succubi cooperated; all fought independently.
Alliances among demons often result in one plus one being less than two.
They must devote some attention to their allies, to prevent any backstabbing.
The Ghoul King’s wartime surrender presents a case requiring careful consideration.
"First, I want his wings thoroughly eradicated!" Gaven commanded his three Advanced Undead Lords.
The biggest significance of the Ghoul King’s betrayal was freeing up three major forces on their side.
"Haha... I knew the master had a backup plan, but didn’t expect it to be so formidable, with both the King of the Minotaurs and the Queen of the Succubi deploying their true forms, and even bringing in the incarnation of a Combat God... The Ghoul King also betrayed the King of the Jackalweres, now the situation is entirely in our favor..."
The reversal of fortune was most exciting for the Giant Bone King and the Skeleton Dragon King.
Previously, their high-end combat power was at an absolute disadvantage.
Both transformed into Skeleton Tornadoes, rushing towards the Chosen of the Jackalweres.
When facing the Divine Nature Incarnations of the King of the Jackalweres or the Ghoul King, they felt very stifled, as their most adept abilities were rendered useless.
However, against these Jackalwere Chosen, their formidable bone manipulation abilities were fearsome divine skills.
Once caught in the Skeleton Dragon King’s Skeleton Dragon’s Breath, the Jackalwere Chosen would either suffer broken bones and torn muscles, impairing combat ability, or be twisted into a knot, losing combat effectiveness immediately.
The Giant Bone King was equally formidable; his surroundings were enveloped by a Skeleton Aura, similar to the Skeleton Swamp, where activated bones would appear, greatly affecting movements of those entering the area.
Enemies targeted by the Giant Bone King would experience even greater impairment, making the combination with the Skeleton Cannon perfect, greatly increasing hit rates.
He particularly enjoyed firing at close range now, as those Jackalwere Chosen lacked the strong Damage Reduction and tenacious Life Force of the Divine Nature Incarnations.
If hit at close range by the Skeleton Cannon, they would lose half their life force and combat effectiveness for a short time.
