Chapter 272 The Birth of a New God
Things are far worse than anyone thought.

In just a few days, the plane pollution returned to its original level and began to spread to the rest of the place.

What followed were countless rioting undead, like a tide of corpses and a sea of ​​bones, occupying a large number of places in a short period of time, and the border provinces of many countries fell as a result.

"Crazy! Those undead spirits are all crazy!"

"Why are there so many undead?"

"Where the hell did they come from?!"

On the altar, Augula and the others were as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

If this continues, the faith they have worked so hard to build will be greatly affected, and it will be difficult to restore the Dream Forest.

Swish!
There was a flash of light.

Yilin, who went outside to collect information, appeared on the altar.

"Lord Rhodes, many undead have appeared around our Elf Empire. Her Majesty the Queen has sent troops to suppress them."

"What about other neighboring countries? How is the situation?" Rhodes asked.

"The situation is similar to ours. I don't know how those undead used to suddenly create a large number of space cracks and transport the undead here." Erin spoke quickly and briefly repeated the news she received.

This undead uprising came so suddenly that many people were caught off guard.

Well known.

The undead are the embodiment of death.

The more people die, the stronger they become.

Such a large-scale invasion would probably transform all other living creatures into undead.

Once that kind of situation occurs, the faith in other gods will be seriously affected, or even completely collapse. Death will then dominate, which is absolutely what they do not want to see.

"The time is still too short."

Rhodes frowned.

He has tried his best to improve himself and restore the forest so that he can protect himself before the disaster strikes.

However, he did not expect that the day of the God of Death's awakening would come so early, and the drastic changes it caused would be even more terrifying than he had imagined.

Now he was almost certain that the plane pollution and even the undead riots were all related to the God of Death!

But for some reason, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it.

He asked Ogula Ilin and the others to go back and help their respective tribesmen first, and the rest of the people to settle the souls that poured into the forest. Then Rhodes returned to the center of the altar.

At this moment, the voices of believers kept echoing in his ears, much louder than usual, and they were obviously affected by the undead riot.

There are also many voices from the Church of Life, which seems to be sending people to various places to clear out the undead, and it seems to be going relatively smoothly.

The situation in many places has temporarily stabilized.

only.

That strange feeling still lingered in Rhodes' heart.

After checking several places, he finally found something wrong.

"Soul fire, these undead have no soul fire!"

Above a city that was being attacked by the undead, Rhodes' consciousness floated in the air, looking at the tide of undead in surprise.

That's right.

There is actually no soul fire in the bodies of these undead!

Looking around, the body was completely empty, with only a skeleton or a decayed corpse left, and no soul could be sensed at all.

This……

Isn't it the same as the black beast?
The undead are the black beasts? !

Rhodes was shocked by his own thought.

Suddenly he recalled his previous doubts, why he could see the level information of the undead just like the black beast.

At that time he just thought it was a coincidence and didn't think much about it, but now it seems that it may not be that simple.

Could it be.

The dramatic changes in the Dreamwood.

Is it really related to the god of death?
"Aredi, enough is enough!"

Suddenly, a roar that resounded through the heavens and earth interrupted Rhodes' thoughts.

In the gray sky that was originally shrouded in deathly aura, a ray of golden holy light suddenly descended, breaking through the void and landing outside the city where a great battle was taking place.

"Holy Angel!"

"The Holy Angel has arrived!"

"We are saved!"

On the city wall, the guards and mercenaries were extremely excited and looked up at the Gate of Heaven that appeared in the sky.

In the gray sky, a golden gate opened and a large number of angels holding spears flew out, filling the entire sky in a blink of an eye.

Rhodes was stunned on the spot, and then he realized that this city was under the jurisdiction of the Temple, and his expression became strange.

its not right.

The city governed by the temple.

Why are there believers in the Moon God?

Won’t they be eradicated as heretics?
But how could he know.

During this period of time, Licia had already used her identity as a saint to place many people from the Natural Church in various branches of the temple. She was raised like a cancer by the temple's top leaders.

With the presence of these believers, he was able to bring his consciousness here so smoothly and just happened to see the scene in front of him.

"The Holy Kingdom of Heaven actually took action so quickly."

Looking at the angel appearing from the sky, Rhodes was a little surprised.

You have to know that the descent of a physical entity consumes a lot of energy, and so many angels are descending at once. This requires at least an eighth-level angel, or even a demigod.

And there is the name mentioned in the loud shout just now, Aredi.

Isn't that the name of one of the three great Death Faction members?

When he first went to the Abyss of Death to gather information, he happened to hear an undead talk about it, but he didn't know which demigod it was.

As if in response to his doubts, the breath of death surged violently in the sky, and a huge heat wave rose.

A huge ghost head slowly appeared, looking in the direction of the Gate of Heaven.

"Michael, you can't stop death."

Skeleton King!

Rhodes recognized the other party's identity at a glance. He was the demigod of death who ruled the skeleton lineage!

Could he be the one who started all this?
In this case, the angel called Michael should be the demigod from the Holy Light camp.

Hadn't they been secretly working together to prevent the God of Death from waking up and plotting his throne?
What exactly happened in the Death Abyss?
This question was also Michael's question. His voice came from the gate of heaven: "You broke your promise. Won't those two guys stop you?"

"Prevent?"

As if hearing a huge joke, the ghost head transformed from the Skeleton King's consciousness laughed deafeningly: "No chance, they have now become the food for His Majesty to wake up. It won't be long before His Majesty wakes up completely. This world belongs to death!"

"What did you say?!"

Michael's voice sank, and Rhodes' expression changed slightly.

The other two demigods were eaten by the God of Death?
Rhodes never expected that things would develop to this point. No wonder the God of Death woke up early. It turned out that he had devoured the power of the two demigods.

"Hahaha...those two idiots thought they could seize your majesty's throne. Last time, the Moon Goddess stopped us and expelled us. Let's see what you can do to stop us this time!"

As Aredi's voice fell, the entire space fluctuated violently. Space cracks appeared one after another, and countless undead emerged, including many high-level skeletons above level seven.

Only skeletons of this level have soul fire left in their bodies. They command the attack from the rear and charge into the angel army amid roars.

The two demigods in the void fought each other, holy light and death energy intertwined, and loud rumbling sounds continued to be heard, as if the sky was about to fall.

The power of a demigod is so terrifying.

This was the first time Rhodes had seen an existence of this level.

However, what he couldn't understand was that the Death Camp had lost two demigods, and the God of Death had not yet fully awakened, so how could they dare to challenge the Sun God.

What's more, in this plane, besides the sun god, there are many gods of all sizes, which seems like a throw away of an egg against a rock.

But oddly enough.

Such a big thing happened, but the gods didn’t show up. Could they be holding them back by something?

And the Skeleton King just mentioned that the Moon Goddess expelled them. Where did they expel them to?
More and more doubts linger in my mind.

In order to avoid being affected, Rhodes glanced at the two sides of the battle, then withdrew his consciousness and went to check the situation in other places.

Then they were shocked to find that there were traces of the undead almost everywhere, and even the pollution had spread and was eroding the plane they were in bit by bit.

"Lord Rhodes, something bad has happened! Something seems to be wrong with those souls!"

As soon as Rhodes regained consciousness, the fat man flew back from a distance, shouting loudly. "What's the problem?" Rhodes asked curiously.

"You'll know if you go over and take a look! For some unknown reason, those souls started to go crazy and attack people everywhere as soon as they entered the forest. We have already controlled them!"

"Going crazy and attacking people?"

Rhodes was shocked. Could it be that it would spread to the Dream Forest so soon?
Not daring to delay, he followed the fat man and flew away from the altar. He soon arrived outside the Holy Mountain of Elements area, and saw from afar a large group of new souls surrounded by dragons and elves.

"Lord Rhodes."

Seeing him coming, the encirclement immediately opened up.

As for Alpha and the others, they used elemental chains to lock up those souls and control their movements.

"Did you find the reason?"

Rhodes asked directly.

When they came to one of the tree demon souls, they saw that the tree demon was struggling desperately and roaring at them angrily, as if it was crazy.

It stands to reason that the souls that can enter the Dream Forest are all relatively pure and yearn for nature, and rarely attack people, let alone so many of them appear at once.

It was hard for him not to guess that it was related to the undead riot outside.

"We have found the reason. It should be that their souls were affected by the aura of death."

Alpha captured one of the souls that was struggling the most and brought him to Rhodes.

When Rhodes took a look, he saw that there was indeed a gray aura in the soul's body. It was precisely because of that power that made them crazy, just like the undead outside.

"It actually affected the woodland?"

Rhodes' expression was solemn, and a breath of life floated out from his hands, enveloping the soul.

After a while, the deathly aura in the soul was dispelled, the struggling movements stopped, and it returned to its original appearance as a newborn soul, looking around in confusion.

However, before he could be happy, another shout came from afar.

"Lord Rhodes, other places have also seen souls going crazy, and many residents have been injured!"

"What did you say?!"

Alpha and the others' faces darkened as they finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

The undead riots caused by the Death Abyss are probably not only to expand their power, but also to invade the major kingdoms of God!
You must know that these souls will return to the major kingdoms of God after death. Once the number is too large, it will not be as simple as causing chaos.

"These skeletons are so scheming!"

The expressions of the people who reacted looked somewhat ugly.

……

It was just as they expected.

In just two days, more and more souls entering the woods were polluted, and news of mad souls attacking people began to come from below.

In desperation, Rhodes could only send all his forces to resolve hidden dangers in various parts of the forest and thoroughly purify those polluted souls.

But even so, there is still a shortage of manpower and it is impossible to take care of all places.

Unfortunately, the Elf Empire and the Giant Kingdom were both held up by the Undead army and could only spare a portion of their manpower to help.

Using two approaches at the same time to tie down their manpower, the people in the Death Abyss must have anticipated this situation a long time ago.

Are they trying to conquer other kingdoms of God?

As if in response to Rhodes's guess, the sky over the Dream Forest suddenly turned gray.

It was like a drop of ink dripping onto a canvas, spreading out in all directions, causing the residents of the forest to look up and scream in surprise.

This is……

There are signs that the Moon God faith is being devoured by death!

Rhodes was shocked that the God of Death moved so quickly that he had already affected this place before he fully woke up. Is this the power that the vampire had mentioned, a power that even the Sun and Moon Gods had to suppress?
What if he wakes up completely?
"no!"

"We must stop the spread of polluted souls!"

Just as Rhodes was thinking about countermeasures.

Suddenly, a strong feeling of palpitations came over me.

Looking up at the sky, he saw that the sky over the forest was torn open, and a soul body filled with deathly energy stood proudly above the void.

[Projection of the Lord of Wrathful Spirits lv90]

!!!

Seeing the level information that suddenly came to him, Rhodes' pupils widened instantly.

Level 90!
Demigod projection!

He is also one of the three demigods under the God of Death, the Lord of the Ungrateful Souls who controls the souls!

How come he is here?

wrong.

How can I see his information?!

Rhodes was shocked.

His ability can only see the information of soulless dead things. Could it be that...

Suddenly.

He thought of the previous conversation between the angel demigods and looked at the terrifying figure in the void.

Sure enough, although the figure exuded the aura of a demigod, it was extremely empty, like a body without a soul, standing there stupidly.

It was actually transformed into a consciousnessless undead!

Needless to say, this must be the work of the God of Death. I didn't expect that he would set his sights on the Dream Forest so quickly. Is he here to avenge the seal of the Moon Goddess?
Swish!
The space above the altar twisted.

Behind Rhodes, a figure slowly appeared, staring at the Lord of the Wrathful Spirit with a serious gaze.

"How did you come?"

Rhode turned around and looked at the person who came. Who else could it be besides Phillis?

"I sensed a strong presence in the woods, so I came here... Are you okay?"

This was the first time that Phillis entered the Dream Forest. She had been afraid that the forest could not support her soul and did not dare to try. However, she managed to get in successfully just now in a hurry.

However, she didn't think too much about it, but looked at the Lord of the Resentful Soul with a serious gaze.

Even though he was just a projection, he had the strength of a ninth-rank demigod. She was probably no match for him.

"protect yourself!"

Without giving Rhode any chance to react, she disappeared from the spot in a flash after saying just one sentence.

When he appeared again, he was already in the void.

The projection of the Lord of Vengeful Spirits seemed like an emotionless machine. He just glanced at her indifferently and raised his hand stiffly.

next second.

A terrifying aura of death suddenly erupted and swept towards Phillis.

"If you dare to defile the holy land of nature, you will be buried here today even if you are a demigod!"

Phillis's aura surged, and a bright moon rose above her. The silver moonlight was like countless sharp blades, tearing apart the deathly aura from all directions, and fighting fiercely with the Lord of the Wrathful Souls in the void.

For a moment, there were continuous explosions, accompanied by the miserable cries of countless resentful souls, as if thousands of ghosts were attacking. Everyone in the forest looked up in shock, and the entire forest began to shake.

However, Phillis was no match for the demigod and soon lost the battle. The moonlight above her head also became dimmer and dimmer, making Rhodes anxious.

"We can't go on like this. Little Transparent, you need to think of a solution quickly. Weren't you very capable when the previous Vulcan came here?"

Little Transparent: ...

The air seemed to be plunged into silence.

The little transparent one, who was originally very capable and could eat the eighth-level holy land in one bite, seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep and did not react at all.

Seeing this scene, Rhode's face turned green. "You are a spendthrift who only knows how to eat all day. You drank so much of my spring water that you can create a demigod for others."

This was originally just Rhode's angry words.

who knows.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Tou Meng seemed to understand.

The translucent leaves swayed gently, and one of the light spots on the leaves burst into a dazzling light.

Suddenly, a breath as vast as the ocean rose into the sky, enveloping the defeated Phillis.

And that spot of light also emitted a ray of invisible power, which was injected into Phillis's brows, causing a terrifying aura far beyond the eighth level to suddenly rise from her body.

at the same time.

Countless pairs of eyes in the major divine kingdoms and planes opened.

"This is... the new throne of God!"
