Choice always outweighs effort.
In the era of Duncan the Lich, life was a very precious resource. Not to ntion large-scale towns, even if many people in a village died, it would imdiately attract the attention of the Church of the Gods. There were even heroes eager for fa who would chase these necromancers for hundreds of miles over a few dozen lives.
In the Mysterious Era, a disciple of Konggs used the outbreak of a disease in a certain place to gather a sliver of the power of the Death and Plague Domain, secretly fanning the flas. At that ti, about a million people died, and as a result, he was hunted by the churches of seven True Gods. Even after becoming a lich, his life phylactery was shattered by the descending divine incarnations.
This battle wiped out his fellow disciples, and Duncan himself was forced to hide for over six hundred years.
It’s actually quite understandable.
With an Eastern ntality, if you were given a Ten Thousand Souls Banner at this ti, you’d know what kind of great opportunity you’ve encountered!
In its mouth, the Death Domain is roughly equivalent to a necromancer’s Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
The population of World Number Three is explosive. Duncan doesn’t have specific data yet, but a preliminary estimate suggests there are over a hundred billion people. Whether it’s the Ten Thousand Souls Banner or the Death Domain, harvesting even a tenth, about ten billion people, would grant extrely terrifying power!
Essentially, liches are still extrely evil. The Purification Agreent launched by the chanical Church is a feast for the soul for them.
Duncan has roughly guessed sothing by now, but the timing is not right.
Whether it’s the cultist organizations or chanical Divine Sect’s army, the forces they possess are very powerful. There are many units with a three-star or higher mark, and even the aftermath of the battlefield almost killed Tessia.
After all, this is a forward colonization point planned to accommodate a population of tens of millions, and the chanical Divine Sect has gathered considerable forces here.
"The upper-level passage is probably sealed."
Tassia’s worldview has been overturned. She’d heard of cultists before but had never seen so many of them, and the power they displayed was astonishing, almost equivalent to a miracle.
To so extent, it really is a miracle.
Because Panosis, the Balancer of All Things, was once the True God of this world, a central force in the Natural Pantheon responsible for maintaining balance. In the Mythical Era, he upheld the balance between nurous races, creatures, and nature.
In various Esoteric Practitioners’ legends, Panosis’s allegiance was extrely fickle, sotis helping one side, then switching to another soon after.
He even sheltered many weak divine spirits, immortal spirits, fairies, and so on.
As for why he ended up like this, with marks of the ’Void Demon God’ on him, and a very peculiar ’Ancient Hatred’ imprint, Duncan isn’t very clear. He can only ask soone from the chanical Divine Sect.
So many people hiding underground in Nest City suggest that this planet’s natural environnt is probably not promising.
As nature is destroyed, the Nature Gods gradually cease to exist.
In the eyes of the chanical Divine Sect, Esoteric Practitioners are actually potential cultists because not all cultists worship Void Demons. Among these twisted Void Evil Gods, aside from those infiltrating from other dinsional levels, there are remnants of fallen ancient gods, twisted divine cadavers, and even disintegrated mythical aggregates.
Normally, the advent of the human era wouldn’t lead to this. In the past, the gods were quite supportive of humanity’s ergence because humans were the youngest and most creative among many races.
But since the day of the chanical Divine Descent, the entire history of this world has spiraled out of control.
The battlefield situation has changed once again.
Don’t be fooled by the apparent firepower advantage of the chanical Divine Sect. Since the cultists dare to initiate a blood sacrifice ritual at this ti, they must have a backup plan.
"Hear the wails of all things!... Feel the lant of nature!..."
"Spores!... Grow!..."
"Engulf it all!..."
At the rear of the battlefield, over a dozen units marked by the Spore Association have completed the descent ritual. They built a ten-ter-high altar of corpses in the ruins of the industrial area, using massive amounts of flesh and blood as a base. Instantly, countless black powders rained down, took root, sprouted, and quickly grew into a massive humanoid fungal silhouette.
This is the cycle of life and death of the Spore Association.
——Lady Fungus (Spore Association) (Plant Domain) (Fungal Domain) (Ancient Evil Creature) (Six-star Gold Mark)!
A feminine silhouette composed of countless fungal spores erged. She appeared like a beautiful lady, with an indescribable strangeness about her. Her gaze unintentionally conveyed a hint of loving pity, but in an instant, she turned into a bloodthirsty, ferocious evil creature.
If described accurately, she resembles a fusion of the early Avalon Fairies (Evil God) and the later Avalon Fairies (True God).
Countless spores scattered with the howling wind.
In the Dinsion Space, the projection page frantically sent warning alerts. Duncan unhesitatingly pulled Tassia to continue hiding toward the edge of the battlefield.
——"Alert! Detecting a warped Plant Domain!"
——"Alert! Detecting the concept domain of fungal spores!..."
——"Alert! Detecting a large-scale undead resurrection!..."
A gigantic black mushroom suddenly appeared behind the chanical Divine Sect.
It had just erged.
The nearby chanical Defense Army started pouring ammunition, and soone even brought out a flathrower, spewing fire dragons dozens of ters long. But none of it could destroy the enormous mushroom in front of them. As it expanded to a certain size, it exploded, spreading countless spore dust.
They parasitize everything nearby, different colored dusts have different effects, so are highly toxic, so are hallucinogenic, so corrode flesh, etc.
No one knows how many casualties there are in the entire F46 area.
Anyhow, under Duncan’s god-like perspective, the marks of life are growing fewer.
But the next wave of Wind of Magic surges.
Countless dense marks units erge, even obscuring the projection page of the god-like perspective. At first glance, it’s probably on the scale of two to three hundred thousand.
At this mont, even the head of Corpse Demon Bert suddenly sprouted fungal-like mushrooms.
Throughout the F46 area, countless spores infiltrated corpses, quickly transforming them into bizarre-looking living corpses, marching in a grand tide towards the chanical Divine Sect’s position.
At so point unknown, Tassia had begun to find breathing difficult, while Duncan gained a mark.
—"Spore Parasite (Negative Status): Although you successfully resisted part of the spore parasite’s effects with your constitution, it still slightly reduced your constitution attributes."
A fla streaked across the sky.
BOOM!
When a large amount of spore dust scattered over the chanical Divine Sect’s position, suddenly an Esoteric Practitioner of the Spore Association conjured a fla arrow, and then the dust exploded in a shock wave, endless flas exploded across the entire chanical position, even causing casualties among the chanical cultivators of the sect.
"Although using magic from the Mysterious Era, their combat techniques are quite impressive."
Duncan’s expression was slightly surprised, he glanced at the listless Tassia beside him, pulled out an adrenaline alchemy injection and injected it into her body.
The first wave of frontal collision.
The current center battlefield is where anyone who enters dies!
A terrifying tal storm is slowly tearing apart the living corpse army before their eyes, shot apart with flesh and blood scattered everywhere, but the severed limbs and remains beco nourishnt for plants, soon more Tree Sea Evil Spirits erge from the dying corpse tide.
This is no longer traditional magical techniques from the Mysterious Era.
To combat the powerful chanical Divine Sect, these cultists have displayed extrely high-level spellcasting techniques.
Witch Demon Konggs then softly spoke: "Your Majesty."
"There should be a Legendary Wizard from the Necromancy School hidden here."
"However, it seems he studies the Plague Domain."
Right now, Tassia is a burden. Duncan directly threw a dical kit at her, and sternly said: "Find a safe place to hide."
"Go to the underground C13 area, it hasn’t been affected by the battlefield."
After saying this, he glanced at Corpse Demon Bert, gesturing him to go too; his strength is unremarkable, a slight oversight in the frontline battlefield would get him crushed into corpse pulp.
The two didn’t hesitate either, as they knew their own limits.
After sending off the two burdens, Duncan again looked at the lich skull beside him and slowly said: "Compared to its strength, how do you stack up?"
Witch Demon Konggs calmly said: "Far inferior to ."
"Had it been the Mysterious Era, even Lady Fungus wouldn’t stand a chance against !"
So it wouldn’t be able to defeat the incarnation of Panosis, the Balancer of All Things.
It still has so tricks up its sleeve.
As one of the strongest liches in this world, it can’t defeat other True Gods, but it can attempt to fight Demigods.
"Is that a vampire?"
At this mont, a unit of cultists had already approached Duncan nearby, he tore off the chanical cultivator robe he wore to avoid mistaken injury. Actually, it’s already a chaotic battle now, neither the chanical Divine Sect nor those cultists consider civilian casualties important, as they’re counted as death units.
In this cruel era, human life is also a type of resource, and it’s not expensive.
A Nest Capital City has at least a billion population, in the eyes of the chanical Divine Sect, the lives of ordinary civilians are just a string of numbers.
Population super explosion, almost pushed by the chanical Divine Sect single-handedly.
"Yes."
Witch Demon Konggs said solemnly: "She has the aura of undead creatures, but may have already mutated."
"Those surviving dark creatures are basically mutated."
Duncan was not surprised by this.
