693 Death (1/2)

”The Half-God Son of Purgatory? Jay, right?”

The Pope of Death, Garrett, was assassinated while everyone was watching, and even had his artifact taken away, causing the entire scene to instantly descend into a deathly stillness.

Especially the final glow that took away the artifact; it was unquestionably a God's power!

Seeing this, many death priests were nearly devastated. The archbishops ran for their lives, while the death knights were even more so at a loss.

Fang Yuan looked on indifferently but clearly knew everything that had happened. ”Part of the reason for this is revenge. The most important reason is to apotheosize!”

Garrett, being the Pope appointed by the Death God, with the flesh, blood, and soul of his body, coupled with that artifact, was in fact a key!

A True God's God Nation naturally resisted all external powers. Even a strong God entering a nation with a weak God would suffer confinement and weakening.

Obviously, even though Jay had already become a Half-God, wanting to fight with Hess in his homefield was courting death.

Thus, he needed to obtain the jurisdiction of part of the God Nation!

The Pope on the ground with that artifact had become this criteria.

Only… just with this is still not sufficient! Even without a favorable geographical position, a Half-God would be unable to break through the encirclement and kill Hess… Therefore, he needs to make use of this one in a million opportunity!

Momentarily, Fang Yuan felt that the Ice Purgatory was cracking, and a bizarre smile appeared. ”In order to attack the Purgatory, Hess has already dispatched all of his men. He even incarnated and descended as a Saint without caring about his serious injuries. At this moment, it is the period when the Death Nation is weakest!

”A Son of Purgatory is about to apotheosize!”

Seeming to have felt the joy of Fang Yuan, the entire Nine Tier Purgatory roared inside the Netherworld, and the ability of many Evil Demons instantly doubled.

”Attack!”

The will of the Gods gathered to become a beacon.

Large numbers of God Nation soldiers fought while drenched in blood and risking their lives. Together with the Saints, they finally killed an ice worm that was as large as a mountain.

Crack! Crack!

After this Evil Demon grand duke died, innumerable spiderweb-like cracks appeared on an iceberg beside it before instantly exploding, revealing a passageway leading to the third level of Purgatory.

”Next, it's the third level, the Poison Purgatory!”

The Saint that Hess incarnated into said loudly, ”Here, we need the assistance of the poison women and large numbers of detoxification pastors!”

”No problem!”

All the Gods agreed. They had to admit that the preparations Hess did in order to destroy the Purgatory were very complete.

Kaboom!

At this moment, the entire Purgatory suddenly roared with a formidable increase in power.

”This… is the joy of the Purgatory? Is Apophis crazy?”

The Saints were at a slight loss. ”He still feels joyful seeing all the Gods attacking him?”

”Everyone, attack quickly!” Hess frowned, and without knowing why, a chilling, ominous premonition coursed through his body, even making him seemingly smell the scent of death.

As the Death God, he was naturally very sensitive to this.

In the next moment, Hess' face changed greatly. ”My agent in the mortal world encountered an assassin! The killer was a Son of Purgatory!!!”

”What?”

Before all the Gods could even react, they saw Hess stunned for a moment before his incarnation started fluctuating.

…

Time moved slightly forward.

Similarly in the Netherworld, in the God Nation of the Death God.

To his own nest, Hess was naturally very attentive. The location of the God Nation was known as the Plains of Peace to his believers.

On the plains, many tall pyramids were erected, and there were even large lifelike demon god statues in front of the pyramids.

This was a large divine soldier, the main defender of the Death God Nation.

Furthermore, there was also a crystal that was as large as a human head on top of the pyramids, and the pyramids were intertwined to form a large, beautiful web.

When encountering the enemy invasions, these pyramids would instantly become horrifying weapons of death.

With the firepower of the web of pyramids and the large divine soldiers, even if the Evil Demons appeared in full force, the Death God Nation could withstand for a very long time.

However, at this moment, it could be clearly seen that many bright glows in the pyramids had been extinguished and a large number of large divine soldiers were vacant. Even the number of petitioners in the God Nation was extremely few.

For this mission, Hess had already done all he could, causing to strength of the God Nation to descend into the abyss.

Of course, in his opinion, there would be nothing alarming about it.

Although the strength of the God Nation was at a low point, it was not something that could be coveted by an ordinary Legend.

Furthermore, the Gods and Evil Demons who truly had the ability to attack a God Nation were currently in an utterly chaotic battle in the Nine Tier Purgatory. Who could possibly pull out?

Thus, his situation seemed to be dangerous but was actually safe.

However, no matter how many considerations a wise person had, there would definitely be something he overlooked. Hess would have never thought that the order to chase down a Son of Purgatory that he casually issued in the beginning not only caused the church's strength in the mortal world to suffer a major setback, it further brought him great danger!

Because divinity could be merged through slaughter, a Son of Purgatory's improvement speed was beyond the imagination of the Gods.

A period of four years was already sufficient to cause an Extraordinary to reach a state close to apotheosis!

”Hess!”

In the Plains of Peace, a door of light opened up and Jay walked out slowly.

Looking into the distance at that largest black pyramid, he took a deep breath. ”I've arrived!”

Breaking into a God Nation was definitely very dazzling to the eyes of the True Gods, as obvious as a sun barging into the darkness.

However, by relying on the Pope's golden crown in his hand, Jay continued to walk to the bottom of the pyramid before being discovered by petitioners guarding the place. ”You… aren't a believer of the Lord!”
