Chapter 377
Chapter 377: The Great Army Approaches the City
It wasn’t that the gods needed to assign one divine authority per incarnation. If they wanted to, they could put all divine authorities into one incarnation and deploy multiple divine domains, but separating them made the incarnations purer.
The amount of divine power and incarnation possessed had an upper limit. When their divine power was exhausted, it would be destroyed. Placing divine authorities on different incarnations would display greater power unless one day Louie reaches a high-tier divine power. In that case, he could just make one incarnation that was as strong as his real body.
For the following battle, Louie had increased his godhood level again and reached level 8.
Name: Louie Galakrond
Godhood level: 8
Divine authorities: Dragon (Not activated), Dream, Life, Time, Earth (incomplete), Magic (incomplete), Killing (incomplete), Mining (incomplete)
This was Louie’s basic status now, and mining was simply negligible.
The Godhood level was a very mysterious thing. It was possible to notice every level up with the naked eye.
The godhood level of the incarnation was half that of the main body. If the main body was level 6, then it could create three incarnations all at level 3.
If the true body was level 7, then it could create 4 incarnations at level 3. There was no such thing as level 3.5
Thus, with Louie’s good at level 8, he could create 4 incarnations at level 4. This was equivalent to being capable of fighting against the weakest gods.
“The Goddess of Magic seems to be at level 4, so she isn’t a threat to me. The only issue is the Mother Earth Goddess. Her godhood is a higher level than mine, but it’s not that much of a threat. With how much time had passed, she should only have one incarnation. By paying a certain price, I am able to solve the problem of incarnations. This would decide the victor of the war.”

Louie was obtaining a surplus of divine power thanks to the faith from Earth. The faith that he gathered from Earth was so high that even if the faith of the gods of San Soliel was added up, it would not even beat Louie.
While other gods were carefully calculating their divine power, Louie was splurging in such a big way. Louie just used it all up to create multiple incarnations in one breath.
“But it’s still not good to waste it like this. The main usage of faith from Earth should be to progress on becoming the source of Order. This time in order to deal with the Mother Earth Goddess, I wasted it to create my incarnations, but it can’t be helped.”
For Louie, becoming the Serpent of Order was his goal, so fighting now was not too meaningful. The moment he possessed and analyzed the power of order would be the moment he would become the ruler of the gods.
This time, it was impossible to kill the Mother Earth Goddess or the Goddess of magic. To kill them, he would have to break into the other party’s divine kingdom and fight there, but the difficulty of doing this was great. Louie could not do it alone.
In the same way, even the Goddess of Magic and the Mother Earth Goddess could not attack his divine kingdom. Even if they dared to come and fight, they would just be punching bags with nowhere to run.
At the moment, conflicts were done through faith. As long as Louie won the war, he could occupy a part of the Seven Kingdoms Alliance. If he slowly converted the faith of the people there, he could use it as a basis to become a high-tier god.
After waiting for the divine power to cycle back and be replenished, he sent the three incarnations away. Louie decided to directly go to the Goddess of Magic’s home and prevent her incarnation from influencing the war on the main continent.
Louie was confident of Alexia and Dragon City’s military strength. He had built the city from scratch and developed it with Earth’s resources for more than ten years. Under Alexia’s command, he believed that one or two duchies could not win. If she couldn’t, Louie felt that it was better to give up on such a daughter as it would be too shameful.
Louie’s only task was to stop the other God’s intervention. As for the rest, it was best to leave it to mortals.
……
In the royal palace of the Kingdom of Selar, the King of Selar was listening to the reports of his men with a gloomy face.
“Your Majesty, we have already notified the Kingdom of Wealth, Kios, the Plateau of Tumibia, the Kingdom of Knowledge, Agoron, and the Kingdom of Music, Evermere. The kings of these five principalities have explicitly stated that they will not send troops.”
“What about Danbusil?”
The King of Selar asked in a hurry.
Danbusil was the initial country in the alliance that joined forces with him. If even Danbusil did not send troops, the King of Selar would accuse its king of being a despicable person.
The King of Selar had already anticipated the other kingdoms being unwilling to front troops. Initially, the seven kingdoms worked together to defend against the threat of the beastmen to the east and the Subila Empire to the west, but now the Subila Empire was already falling apart. The Subila Empire royal family was only left with their capital which was under the rule of the king. The rest of the empire had been split apart by the gods. The current Subila Empire only existed in name only.
Without the threat of the Subila Empire, the threat of the beastmen alone was not enough for the Seven Kingdom Alliance to exist. Moreover, the war with the beastmen was a racial war. Even without something binding them, human kingdoms would spontaneously unite together to fight them when necessary. So now, the Seven Kingdom Alliance was unrelated to the invasion of Selar.
The King of Selar actually hoped for assistance from Agoron the most. The ruler of the duchy of Agoron was already an ascended god and had become the God of Knowledge. This god had already abandoned his mortal throne and developed his church, but the current King of Agoron was his descendant. If the King of Selar could gain his support, then it was the same as obtaining the support of another god. Unfortunately, the God of Knowledge had just ascended, so he was cautious and did not dare intervene in the war against other gods.
‘Why did all these gods have to wake up while I am ruling the country?’
The King of Selar cursed in his heart. Among the mortals, the ones who had the least faith in gods were the kings and rulers. There would always be a conflict between the church and the state. These rulers who enjoyed power were absolutely unwilling to hand over their kingship to the divine.
However, the gods did not care whether the rulers of the country believed them or not. The gods only cared about the quantity and quality of the believers. How many were the rulers in the world, and how many were the commoners in the world? There was simply no comparison between the two, so the target of God’s mission has always been the common people.
As for the quality of believers, the gods naturally wanted the strong to believe in them. The faith of the strong was much more than ordinary people, which is why even though dragons had a small community, the Dragon God was still able to become a high-tier god. Each dragon contributed faith that was worth a thousand humans!
Before the king’s ministers could reply, they heard an extremely seductive voice from the palace hall.
“King Danbusil has sent 30,000 troops to the capital of Selar to defend against our common enemy’s invasion. The King of Danbusil understands that we share a common fate.”
The King of Selar heard this seductive voice. His look drifted for a moment, followed by his sight locking onto the enchanting woman that appeared in the palace hall. The woman’s delicate body was shrouded by a red robe and her face was heavily veiled. She had pale white long hair that carried a deadly enticement. Her every movement caused eyes to look at her and people to murmur words in excitement. The King of Selar was not weak by all means, but cracks had appeared in his mind as happiness flowed in his blood.
That’s right, what he felt was happiness rather than fear as if dying in the hands of this enchanting woman was his life’s greatest joy.
When he came to, the King of Selar looked at the woman in shock and fear, “Who are you?!”
To be able to break through the palace guard’s anti-magic formation, this woman was at least a demigod!
“You don’t need to know who I am. You just need to know that I am representing Danbusil and have brought an army of 30,000 to help you.”
The woman’s voice was fiery yet lazy. With a wink of her eyes, even the female priest of the Mother Earth Goddess felt herself blush and actually moved towards this woman.
‘Since when did the Kingdom of Danbusil have such a terrifying existence?’
This thought flashed through the King of Selar’s heart, but he was quickly filled with joy.
Danbusil had sent an army of 30,000. Adding that together with his army and some conscripted soldiers, he now possessed an army of 80,000. Moreover, the Church of the Goddess of Earth had promised to send a demigod to help, while the Patriarch of the Church of the Goddess of Magic also said that he would join the war.
Although the King of Selar was dissatisfied with this amount of powerful forces, he felt that with the addition of his own country’s two legendary rank powerhouses, he could defend the city, hold off the army of Dragon City, and launch a counterattack.
Although demigods were strong, they had to spend a lot of divine power to eliminate an army of tens of thousands just like when Louie came to this world, and it was hard to witness this kind of thing.
Demigods accumulated divine power slowly. Coupled with the revival of the gods, how much faith would be left to the demigods, as a result, today’s demigods were stretched to the limit. Each demigod only had so much in reserve, so they would not waste it killing ordinary soldiers.
Thus, the number of mortals in the war was meaningful. For a legendary rank powerhouse, killing tens of thousands of people was not difficult. Most of the soldiers were also powerhouses, though a bit lower in ranking. As a result, demigods would not be able to do anything and understood the difficulties of marching on. This would result in their retreat rather than them wasting their precious power on mortals.
When the Subila Empire was in its heyday, hundreds of thousands of soldiers were truly enough to make everyone, except the gods, back off.
I want to die. Mondays are hellish. T-T
