No need for miracles or devout believers; to be born a god is great.
The meteorite was close by; its mottled and desolate surface was almost flat, giving people the illusion of the world turning upside down.
The oppressive atmosphere made people unable to stand, and they all knelt down to beg for God's mercy.
"What are you doing! What are you trying to do?!"
On screen, Astraea's beautiful eyes were wide open, her emotions running high.
She couldn't understand the significance of Eugene's actions.
If the goddess of justice were present, she would surely sacrifice herself at all costs.
Pity.
Eugene, expressionless, issued the final extermination order.
This is the time.
Zheng! !
A powerful, resounding elephant's cry that shook the heavens caused everyone's minds to jolt into focus!
At one end of the city, atop the highest pillar of the arena, Ganesha, the "Ganesha" with a red elephant mask and comical, flamboyant mannerisms that were disliked by the gods, unleashed his suppressed divine power, which, like a divine rainbow reaching the heavens, poured straight into the meteorite summoned by Eugene.
Ganesha, the son of Shiva, the Hindu god, and Parvati, is ranked half a level below Kali.
His image is simple and honest, but he represents wisdom and "breaking through barriers".
He is kind and compassionate towards people, and brave and resolute in battle.
He is a gentle yet powerful figure, and a steadfast guardian of order in Orario.
"I can't let you hurt the children I love!"
"I am—Ganesha!"
With his usual hearty laughter, this god, who had led his clan for a hundred years, emitted pillars of pure and holy divine power from his body.
Below the arena, beneath the elephant's head, the clansmen, their eyes brimming with tears, cheered.
A colossal elephant, reaching for the sky, let out a roar that shattered the sea of clouds!
boom! !
As the halo of divine power shattered, the Heavenly Obstruction Star was effortlessly crushed and swept away by this attack.
The pillar of light that reached the heavens continued to burn for a long time. When everything dissipated, the kind deity was no longer there.
He has returned to heaven.
“Lord Ganesha——!!!”
The cries of praise rose and fell, but the god of this hero has already bid farewell to this era.
"Eugene!! What have you done!!"
Astraea could no longer contain her anger; she knew Ganesha's character all too well.
Why did you have to separate him from his family? Why did you drive Orario to such a desperate situation?!
"..."
The questions in her heart kept coming one after another, and even the divine power of the Goddess of Justice began to fluctuate.
But Eugene remained steadfast in his resolve and did not utter a single word.
That's not enough; this is just the beginning.
And so, under Astraea's horrified gaze, he raised his hand once more.
The celestial obstruction is caused by the Zhen star!
362 I want the world to be without gods, and all the power of the gods to be in my hands!
362
Ganesha left.
To protect his beloved children and the city, he used his hearty laughter as a signal to awaken the true nature of Zanpakuto, and single-handedly held up the sky.
When faced with natural disasters that are beyond the capabilities of mortals, only divine power beyond the comprehension of the lower realm can resolve them.
At the same time, this is a more serious violation than passively triggering divine power.
For hundreds of years, or even longer, this honest and simple god was unable to return to the mortal realm.
"Phew! Great! As expected, some gods couldn't hold back any longer!"
"Luckily it wasn't me, otherwise I would have had to stay in the Heavenly Realm for hundreds of years. Who could stand that!"
"That idiot Ganesha, he's actually quite useful in a situation like this!"
Seeing the meteorite destroyed and the divine light returned, the gods breathed a sigh of relief and showed relaxed expressions.
They almost thought they were about to leave this wonderful world behind!
If no action is taken, the entire city will be destroyed. Then, when the power of God "740" is activated, all the gods will be sent back.
But that's definitely better than actively breaking the rules.
The criteria for judging accidental violations and deliberate overstepping of boundaries are worlds apart, and decades of tedious work are not equal to hundreds of years of waiting.
In order to retain this qualification as much as possible, they can even endure until the very last moment.
As for this city? The lives and deaths of hundreds of thousands of people?
Isn't the change in the lower realm swift as a flash? In less than a hundred years, everything will probably return to normal, and this destruction, like countless other disasters in the past, will be buried in history!
"Haha! This time we really made the right bet!"
"Right? I knew it! There are so many great gods in the heavens, it's not our turn to make an appearance!"
"Since those guys are doing so well in the lower realms, they should be the first to show off!"
The gods cheered and celebrated, laughter filled the air; the families wept bitterly, their hearts breaking; the people, survivors of the catastrophe, were bewildered.
In despair, signs of chaos spread to every street and alley, only to be stopped by God's sacrifice on the verge of collapse.
Yes, maintaining order relies on sacrifice.
This world is not equal, and the relationship between God and man should not be like this.
“Ganesha…”
Inside the Divine Might Space, Astraea stared at the remaining radiance for a long time, unable to recover.
That seemingly exaggerated and carefree deity has always been quite reliable.
Whether it's maintaining order in the city or helping fellow gods, he's always at the forefront.
Eleven level 5s, countless believers—their judgment is sound, and the God they trust is once again at the forefront of everyone's efforts!
But he shouldn't have done that.
He should have continued to protect the Netherworld and Orario!
It's all because of you!!
The return of the righteous friend and the chaos in the city's order are all due to Eugene's reckless actions.
He kept saying he wouldn't hurt anyone, but without any warning, he summoned a meteor, intending to turn hundreds of thousands of people to ashes.
How barbaric, how evil!
By breaking his promises and betraying trust, Eugene's image in Astraea's eyes plummeted.
Along with her anger came a violent surge of divine power.
"Well!"
Eugene felt the boundless ocean within his body begin to roar, realizing that his mother-in-law was about to unleash her fury.
Although the power of the divine force is absolutely in my hands, it was ultimately provided by someone else.
If we let her continue making a scene, it will inevitably have some impact.
We still need to carry out the plan first.
Having witnessed enough of the myriad aspects of human nature, Eugene no longer gives Orario a chance to breathe.
He raised his hand once more, the same hand that easily controlled life and death in the lower realms, and pressed it down again in mid-air, under the astonished gazes of Astrea and the other women on the other side of the screen!
"Alright, how are you going to defend against the second one?"
The celestial obstruction is caused by the Zhen star!
call!
A massive, identical dark cloud twisted and spun, instantly engulfing the divine radiance that Ganesha had showered upon him with boundless darkness.
An even more violent whirlwind, like a giant, spinning hand, firmly grasped the labyrinthine city. Sand and stones flew, the earth trembled, and all sorts of apocalyptic scenes shattered the order that had been so hard to restore!
"Yahahahah!!"
The screams finally erupted, a wave of sound filled with the most desperate timbres a human could utter.
The white elf Hedin, speechless and trembling uncontrollably, simply couldn't believe his eyes.
His pride, his wisdom, his experience—all of it has now become a joke.
When the second meteorite broke through the clouds, revealing its desolate and lifeless true form, even the LV6 adventurer, revered by the world, was no more powerless than a street urchin.
This world has no Susanoo that can split mountains with sword energy, no overwhelming Tree World Advent, and no miraculous ninjutsu capable of reversing gravity.
They have all sorts of magic—fire, wind, ice—but they're all flawed.
Divine power, the ultimate power in this world is only divine power.
"Choose, my gods."
"Let me see how many of these people are worthy of their status."
Looking down indifferently at all living beings, Eugene murmured softly.
His purpose is about to be revealed; only under such extreme coercion can the shining light be seen, and only then can true gold be sifted out from the dust and mud.
"Stop, Eugene!! Stop!!"
