The Lord of Ashes

Thain's escape route and the choices he made in the crisis were impeccable.

But if he had known in advance that Fury would no longer pursue him, Thane would never have gone south to wade into the muddy waters.

At this time, the chaos in the south of the Kingdom of San Jose was even worse than here in Missile City.

Fury, the God of Forging, secretly attacked the God of Crafts this time. Since he has failed, with the steady character of the God of Forging, he will never attack rashly again.

Although he failed to kill the God of Craftsmanship, Fury could be considered to have accomplished his set goal this time.

Based on the losses that the God of Crafts suffered in this battle, he will have to be honest for at least 20,000 years in the future.

As for the harvested structural remains and puppet giants, they are also the gains of the God of Forging from this battle.

"‎​​‎​‏‎‏​‎‏​‏‏‏Boom!" The demigod-level plant giant under the ruins struggled to stand up, blocking Fury's sight for Thain and others.

The vitality of this giant plant monster is really tenacious. After being hit all over the body by the covering blow of the artifact, it didn't fall down.

Gurgling green juice flows from the body surface of this giant plant monster.

With heavy steps, the plant monster rushed towards Fury again.

…

Kingdom of San Jose South.

Almost at the same time that Thain attacked Gond, Hall, the God of Suffering, suddenly descended on this area and launched a fierce attack on the seriously injured God of Courage, Tom.

Hall, the god of suffering, and Thom, the god of courage, are also old enemies.

They are both middle gods, and the source of their conflicts can be traced back to more than a dozen saint catastrophes.

In this Saint Catastrophe, Tom, the God of Courage, was seriously injured. It was originally the work of Hall, the God of Suffering, and the Black Dragon King.

This time Thom appeared in the Kingdom of San Jose to save the goddess of joy, and Hall, the god of suffering, followed closely.

Coupled with the God of Hunting, Mara, who had already taken action before, the Dark Alliance now has two middle gods, who have appeared in the hinterland of the continent.

When Hall, the god of suffering, appears, Thom, the god of courage, is accompanied by the goddess of joy, Leerla, and the goddess of music, Melove.

Therefore, although the God of Suffering has a good fighting ability among the mid-level gods, in the case of one against three, he really couldn't do anything to Tom for a while.

On the contrary, as time went by, more and more Justice League priests and temple warriors arrived on this battlefield. Since there is an artifact field covering up the movement in Missilu City, the area where the Justice League mainly supports is the area where the God of Suffering appears.

No matter how powerful the God of Suffering is, he is still alone.

And the influence of the Saint Catastrophe also exists on him.

The ants are killing the elephant. When more and more Justice League forces appear nearby, the situation of Hall, the God of Suffering, gradually becomes worrying.

Hall is not the only god whose dark alliance appears in the Kingdom of San Jose.

Mala, the god of hunting, is indeed the god who knows how to look for opportunities best.

This guy didn't fight side by side with Hall at the beginning, but waited for Hall to severely consume the power of Thom and others before he took action.

As mentioned before, many Justice League gods gathered in the Kingdom of San Jose for the purpose of keeping the team warm.

‎​​‎​‏‎‏​‎‏​‏‏‏ Therefore, when the god of hunting Mara also participated in this battle again, the god of literature Dinel and the god of springs Aida also paid attention to the battle here. Well, we can't continue to sit idly by.

Dinel, the god of literature, and Edas, the god of springs, are both gods with weak divine power.

Two levels behind Mara.

But it is precisely because of the influence of the Saint Catastrophe that all the gods were forced to descend to the main material world in the form of saints. This also caused the gap between these gods to be not as big as imagined.

For example, Fury, the God of Forging, is obviously a fifth-level creature. Without the Saint's Catastrophe's restriction on his power, Thain, a mere demigod-level magician, would not be able to escape from the opponent's grasp anyway.

The appearance of the god of literature, Dinel, and the god of springs, Edas, directly made the battlefield of gods in the Kingdom of San Jose even more chaotic.

The fighting here is much more lively than in the north.

The conflict in the north is the dispute between the God of Craftsmanship and the God of Forging, with Thane sandwiched in the middle.

This side of the south... Actually, the gods that appear here are not just the ones mentioned above.

When Thain was flying south at full speed with Yuri, about half a day later, he felt that Fury, the god of forging behind him, had not caught up. Before Thain could breathe a sigh of relief, the violent turbulence and law impact in the southeast direction almost Thain did not fall directly from mid-air.

A huge dark blue water curtain appeared at the end of Thain's sight.

At the same time as this dark blue water curtain appeared, there were also several giant tornadoes with astonishing power.

Looking from a distance, the end of the sky is dark and depressing. In terms of the power and changes in the natural environment caused, the battlefield of God in the south of the Kingdom of San Jose was much greater than the commotion caused by Thain and others in Missilu City.

The appearance of this water curtain and giant tornado indicates that Aesop, the Storm God of the Dark Alliance, has also taken action.

They are also middle gods. Aesop, the God of Storms, is definitely at the forefront among the gods.

Like Vol'jin, the goddess of wealth, he is a being with great potential to impact the realm of upper gods in Faerûn.

The difference is that Wojin, the goddess of wealth, purely relies on her vast divine power as a backup support, while Aesop, the storm god, relies entirely on his own combat power.

This is an existence that can release a large area of ​​​​the realm of God without resorting to any artifacts during the Saint Catastrophe.

The water curtain and giant tornado that Thain saw at the end of his field of vision were actually the realm manifested by this powerful mid-level god.

Divine grace is like the sea, and divine power is like prison.

During the Saint Catastrophe, only a powerful existence above the level of Storm God Aesop could still maintain his majesty.

The gods of the Dark Alliance are not as united as the gods of the Justice League.

Therefore, although a total of three middle gods descended here one after another, in the face of the five gods of the Justice League fighting side by side, the balance was still barely maintained in the end.

It can be seen from this that when the God of Crafts, Gond, was blocked in the crystal barrier by the God of Forging, Fury, and hung up, it was not his gods and friends who sold him, regardless of his life or death.

It is purely because the other gods in the Kingdom of San Jose are not in a good situation at the moment.

When the huge water curtain and giant tornado burst out at the end of Thain's field of vision, he also discovered the traces of Gond, the god of craftsmanship.

Fury, the God of Forging, had beaten him very hard. In Gond's current situation, even a legendary creature would be enough to keep him going.

Although the artifacts and equipment are powerful, Gond's equipment has been almost worn out by wear and tear, and it is estimated that there is not much residual power left in the artifacts.

Looking at the direction of Gond indicated in the "Search for Artifacts" in front of him, Thane gritted his teeth. He still couldn't accept the result of returning empty-handed, not to mention that Gond's current situation was far worse than him.

After inputting a magic power into the artifact search tool again and identifying the direction of Gond, Thane flapped the devil's wings and flew southeast.

"Can you still fight?" Thane asked Yuri.

"Yeah." Yuli's voice came from the Flame Constructed Demon Doll.
