Chapter 1251: First Blood (Part One)

                                                                               

In reality, Fei"s guess wasn"t wrong.

After the bugs were blocked in front of the wormholes for three days, they sent out a supreme-G.o.d-level bug. This bug wasn"t similar to the giant locust-like beast that was equivalent to a G.o.dly king. It was a snake-like bug that was only a few hundred meters long. Its body was tough like a G.o.d-tier combat weapon, and it could control lightning.

In this battle, Maradona was severely injured, and Fei was wounded as well.

Fei only took care of this supreme-G.o.d-level bug after spending half a day and paying a hefty price.

Although Fei had access to a ma.s.sive amount of pure energy to replenish his energy depletion, he couldn"t absorb it in a short time.

After fighting with the bugs for several days non-stop, Fei"s strength was greatly reduced. On the other hand, Continental Martial Saint Maradona received medical treatments from Fei but could no longer battle. The injuries that the supreme-G.o.d-level bug left on his body forced him to retreat to the distant battleground in s.p.a.ce, getting the rest that he needed.

This was terrible news for humans.

The bugs were only blocked here four days in total, yet they sent over a supreme-G.o.d-level existence. It was hard to imagine what kind of forces that the bugs were going to send over next. The situation seemed to show that the bugs didn"t lack supreme-G.o.d-level ent.i.ties.

The most worrying thing for Fei was that the [Mother Empress] in legends that controlled the bugs hadn"t appeared yet.

According to the information that Fei obtained, he used a little extrapolation and guessed that the [Mother Empress]"s strength was beyond the Supreme G.o.d Realm. It was hard to imagine what humans could rely on to win this war once the [Mother Empress] arrived.

As the most powerful human, Fei didn"t have the strength to rival high-level supreme G.o.ds yet.

The battle continued.

After Maradona retreated to the battleground in s.p.a.ce, human reinforcements came to a.s.sist Fei.

There were more than a dozen G.o.d-level dragon knights and various top-tier masters who used to belong to different super empires. There were [Battle G.o.d] Ronaldo of Madrid and [G.o.d"s Son] Messi of Barcelona.

This pair of nemeses had never imagined that they would fight alongside each other one day.

Fei had used a ton of his G.o.dly power. As the most powerful human, he had to rest. This way, if a devastating situation occurred, humans could have the strength to turn the tables and potentially prevent a disaster.

High-level and low-level bugs were shooting out of the wormholes continuously like water jetting out of a pipe, and the human reinforcements joined the battle.

Now, Fei finally got a chance to breathe. He was stationed at the center of this star system, and he helped out when human masters fell into dangerous situations, preventing as many casualties as possible. After four days of high-intensity battle, Fei consumed a ton of G.o.dly power, and he needed time to readjust and become stronger since there was a huge amount of pure energy in his grand G.o.dly realm that he hadn"t had the chance to absorb.

It was fortunate that the overall strength of humans increased drastically.

About a month ago, the technique that could break the barrier between the Demi-G.o.d Realm and the True-G.o.d Realm was shared by the Northern Region Empire and the Holy Church, and it quickly spread throughout the continent. Furthermore, the laws of nature changed on the Azeroth Continent, allowing many demi-G.o.ds who were stuck in their realm to advance and become true G.o.ds.

                                                                               

Chapter 1251: First Blood (Part Two)

                                                                               

To prepare for the war, many masters were permitted to cultivate in those unique s.p.a.ces of the Northern Region Empire where time flowed faster compared to the outside world. Now, many true G.o.ds and even G.o.dly kings existed among humans.

For example, Messi and Ronaldo were both G.o.dly kings.

The tragic battle continued.

The bugs were fighting for the control of the s.p.a.ce within 1,000 kilometers of the wormholes. If they were able to obtain the control, they could send troops to this star system continuously without obstacles, and these troops could move around and create larger wormholes to teleport the main forces and the more powerful bugs.

Through observation, Fei noticed that the higher level a bug was, the harder it was for it to get through the wormholes. For that supreme-G.o.d-level bug to come here, more than ten G.o.dly-king-level bugs burned their energy and sacrificed themselves to create a supergiant wormhole for it to get through.

It was clear that to create a supergiant wormhole, processes had to take place on both ends of the wormhole.

It seemed like the bugs" evolution path tilted toward technology. In the war on the Azeroth Continent more than 1,000 years ago, they didn"t get to devour many G.o.ds and demons who mastered the laws of s.p.a.ce. Therefore, their control of the laws of s.p.a.ce was weak, and this weakness of the bugs could be exploited by humans.

As long as human masters could stall the bugs near the wormholes, the bugs wouldn"t be able to move forward quickly and teleport their main forces.

Time pa.s.sed by.

Even with Fei at the center of the star system and overseeing the battle, casualties were unavoidable.

Boom!

An explosive noise resonated in the dark star system. A human dragon knight named Pires who was from the a.r.s.enal Military District on the Eastern Region of Azeroth was surrounded by many powerful bugs, and he suffered unrecoverable injuries. In this situation, he chose to self-detonate. The powerful G.o.dly laws of nature spread in the area and turned the bugs that were within 100 kilometers of him into dust. However, the price that Pires paid was the complete disappearance of his soul.

All the human masters who were in battle quietly looked toward Pires" direction, paying respect to their peer who was the first to die in this war.

This was the first blood that humans shed, but it was probably not the last.

However, the human masters who were battling didn"t get fearful.

On the contrary, the sacrifice of this peer stimulated their bravery.

[G.o.d"s Son] Messi and [Battle G.o.d] Ronaldo charged into the sea of bugs with their peers behind them.

"Revenge!" everyone shouted in their minds.

Compared to the bugs, these human masters were way more intelligent, could coordinate with each other well, and had more coordination experience. The 30-or-so human masters created two cone-shaped formations, and they moved inside the sea of bugs non-stop, avoiding being tied down by the bugs. Every time they moved, they tried to destroy one wormhole to slow down the bugs" teleportation speed.

Fei could only help when these two teams encountered deadly dangers.

In the meantime, Fei was trying to recover his G.o.dly power and absorb the pure energy inside his grand G.o.dly realm.

To humans, the good news was that after the first supreme-G.o.d-level bug died, there wasn"t a second supreme-G.o.d-level bug that got teleported over. This was the only way that Messi and others could buy time for Fei.

-The battleground in s.p.a.ce-

At this moment, the human troops that were busy working saw the tragic last moment of Pires and his dragon through the projected screen of a divy crystal.
