Chapter 997 The Terrifying Fire Cry Race!
In the sky above the Crimson Fire Domain, more than 80 billion soldiers formed a vast and orderly formation in the fiery red sky.
More than 80% of them were humans, 10% were fog monsters, and the remaining 10% were soldiers made up of dragons, volcanic dwarves, people of foreign races, elves, goblins, and various other people of foreign races.
Even though "They" were an army of different races, "They" had solemn expressions at this moment. Their eyes were filled with cold killing intent and obvious fanaticism as they looked down at the Crimson Fire Domain.
In front of them, Zhou Zhou, Original Sin, and the True God of Demon-Hunting—
Geralt, the Heavenly Dragon God—Kika, Sword Emperor Fuyou—Lu Yan, the God of Abyssal Knights—Bai He—all had a total of five True God-Tier combatants standing at the forefront of the army.
At this moment, Zhou Zhou had already used the Law Skill, King, and his strength had increased to the Intermediate Grade True God-Tier.
Furthermore, with the addition of the Heavenly Dragon God—Kika, "He" felt that his current Intermediate Grade True God-Tier strength had increased significantly.
At this moment, the Legendary-Tier Heavenly Note Master's solemn voice resounded in the world.
Mage Heavenly Note was a learner of soundwave magic and was best at using sound magic. To "Him", transmitting sound and expanding his voice was his specialty.
Coupled with the help of a sound wave divine artifact, it was enough for this Legendary-Tier sound wave mage's voice to spread throughout most of the Crimson Fire Domain.
"… Anyone who kills our people, who is unwilling to surrender, and resists violently, will be killed!"
"The babies of the Fire Cry Race are innocent!"
"I advise all members of the Fire Cry Race to surrender early and avoid the pain of being exterminated. Leave some race flames for the Fire Cry Race!"
…
The Ancestral Fire Holy Capital in the Fire Cry Race's Holy Land, at that moment, hundreds of millions of Fire Cry Race members raised their heads and listened to Wizard Tianyin's voice.
They looked at each other in fear after listening.
"What should we do? Should we fight the humans?"
"How do we fight? This Common People's Regal could even easily force back the previous obstruction operation, causing us to lose a lot of strength. Now, the other party's military strength is more than 10 times ours. How can we fight?"
"Even though the other party has a lot of soldiers and their average strength is higher than ours, other than soldiers, we still have more than eight trillion Fire Cry Race members. With less than 100 billion soldiers, will they really dare to attack?"
"Silly, didn't you see those five True God-Tiers? A full-powered strike from a True God-Tier can wipe out an entire world's lifeforms. What's the big deal about exterminating our entire race?"
"Where's our True God-Tier Your Excellency?"
…
The Fire Cry Race members discussed in fear.
They had never expected that the other party would really dare to send troops to exterminate the races after sending a letter of surrender to the various races. Moreover, the first race to be exterminated was their Fire Cry race.
At this moment, the five tallest and most majestic extinct volcanoes in the Crimson Fire Domain suddenly erupted with scorching lava. The lava spewed out at a height of at least hundreds of thousands of meters. Following that, five streams of flames shot into the sky from the mouth of the volcano, heading straight for the Blazing Sun Kingdom's army.
"It's the True God-Tier of our Fire Cry Race!"
"It's Old Ancestor Rong Yan, Old Ancestor Sheng Huo, Old Ancestor Jing Ming, Old Ancestor Zhi Juo, and Old Ancestor Xuan Tong."
"The five True God-Tiers of our Fire Cry Race have all been mobilized!"
The Fire Cry Race members cried out in alarm.
…
A few minutes ago, when Patriarch Lu and Bai He sensed the Blazing Sun Kingdom's army and saw Zhou One, Bai He asked hesitantly, "Are you a clone of 'Him'?"
"The person just now was the clone, I'm not." Zhou Zhou smiled and said, "A portion of my will has just entered this body. The e battle is about to happen after all. I also want to use this opportunity to sharpen my combat skills."
A smile appeared on Bai He and Patriarch Lu's faces upon hearing this.
They looked down at the territory of the Fire Cry Clan, and the smiles on their faces gradually turned cold.
"You didn't expect this day to come, did you?"
Patriarch Lu said coldly.
Zhou Zhou smiled.
"Looks like Patriarch Lu has a deep grudge with the Fire Cry Race."
Zhou Zhou smiled.
Patriarch Lu nodded and said, "Previously, when Your Excellency Yellow Emperor sealed the Xuanyuan Tomb because he was poisoned, the Fire Cry Race and the few people of foreign races near the other human territories had been leading an army to our human territories for free. They killed many of our humans and plundered many of our human resources. At that time, Bai He had to guard the abyss and couldn't always guard against these people of foreign races. Therefore, during that period of time, I returned from the outside world and specially came to guard the borders of the human race."
"During that period of time, I fought many God Spirits of the Fire Cry Race. Both sides had victories and defeats, right? The hatred was also formed at that time."
Zhou Zhou nodded and said with a smile, "Then Your Excellency Lu has a chance to take revenge this time."
"I'm just a human True God-Tier who received a High-Tier Deity-level divine artifact from you and was specially invited to help."
Patriarch Lu rolled his eyes at Zhou Zhou.
They wanted to help for free.
However, he was afraid that in the next second, the Supreme Will would strike down with a bolt of divine lightning, causing "He" to die. That would not be worth it.
"Me too."
Bai He shrugged his shoulders.
"Zhou Zhou, are these your soldiers?"
At this moment, the two of them had already discovered Zhou Zhou's 80 billion troops and could not help but exclaim in shock.
Zhou Zhou nodded reservedly.
Bai He and Patriarch Lu looked at each other in shock.
"I really… don't understand you anymore."
Patriarch Lu smiled bitterly.
More than 80 billion soldiers!
This was already more than eight times the total military strength of the human race at its peak.
Which meant…
In terms of military strength, the current Zhou Zhou could be said to be comparable to a clan alone.
At this moment, five bright and dark flames rose in the distance. These flames flew to the same height as "Them" and stopped. The flames dissipated, revealing five figures emitting the aura of True God-Tier.
They were the five True God-Tier ancestors of the Fire Cry Race!
After "They" appeared, their gazes immediately landed on Zhou Zhou. Then, they also saw the other four True God-Tiers around "Him".
"It's the Blazing Sun Kingdom's newly promoted True God—Original Sin and Demon-Hunter True God—Gealt and the Heavenly Dragon God—Kika."
"There's also Patriarch Lu and Bai He!?"
"The two of you actually dare to interfere in the matters between the Blazing Sun Kingdom and our Fire Cry Race?!"
The leader, True God-Tier Jing Ming, said in surprise and joy.
"What are you happy about? Can't you see that the Supreme Agreement didn't touch the two of us?"
Bai He chuckled, but his eyes were extremely cold. "We were invited here by the Common People's Regal at a great cost. This doesn't violate the Supreme Agreement."
"I was very happy after hearing this deal from the Common People's Regal."
"Jing Ming."
Patriarch Lu pulled out his low-level True God-Tier Elementary Grade divine artifact, the Mystic Light Heaven Mystic Divine Sword, and pointed it at Jing Ming and the other four Fire Cry Race True Gods. "This time, we'll settle our old and new grudges together!"
Bai He also snorted coldly upon hearing this. "He" held his True God-tier weapon, the Shining Dragon Spear, and took a step forward. The aura on "His" body poured out like a celestial river. The entire world was filled with "His" terrifying True God-tier aura.
Right on the heels of that, Geralt and the Heavenly Dragon God also released their True God-Tier auras one after another. At the same time, they revealed the full set of six True God-Tier Divine Artifacts they were wearing.
The four True God-Tiers unleashed their auras and were fully equipped with True God-Tier Divine Artifacts. Instantly, the wind and clouds in the world changed. Countless phantoms of worlds that seemed to contain all living beings appeared and disappeared in the space around them. That was a unique True God-Tier phenomenon created by their understanding of the laws and triggering the energy of heaven and earth.
At this point, of the five True God-Tier combatants, only the one who was in the middle relative to Zhou Zhou did not move.
The five True God-Tier Ancestors of the Fire Cry Race sensed the terrifying aura on their bodies and saw the True God-Tier Divine Artifacts they were wearing. Their expressions suddenly changed as they cried out involuntarily,
"Where did you get all your True God-Tier Divine Artifacts?!"
There were more than 20 True God-Tier Divine Artifacts on these four True God-Tiers.
Even 10 Divine Kingdom Lord factions combined might not have so many True God-Tier Divine Artifacts, what more a Kingdom-level Lord faction!
With so many True God-Tier Divine Artifacts, the strength of the four of them, even if they were only at the True God-Tier Elementary Grade, would probably be able to clash with True God-Tier Advance Grade God Spirits without True God-Tier Divine Artifacts.
The five Fire Cry Race True God-Tiers immediately felt the pressure multiply.
Zhou Zhou did not say anything.
So many True God-Tier Divine Artifacts were naturally lent to the True Gods by "Him".
This was the first time "He" had engaged in a racial-level war, so "He" naturally had to do it beautifully and flawlessly.
"Wait."
True God-Tier Rong Yan, who was the most senior among the five ancestors of the Fire Cry Race, said in a low voice,
"Do you have to go this far?"
"Even though we stopped you humans from retreating to the Primordial World previously, Common People's Regal, you are powerful and forcefully blocked our attack. Strictly speaking, our Fire Cry Race actually didn't cause any substantial losses to you. Our Fire Cry Race had lost a quarter of our Extraordinary-Tier clansmen because of this."
"How about we call it quits?"
"Our Fire Cry Race also has some foundations of our race. If you really want to attack forcefully, even if we die, we will drag half of your True God-Tier and soldiers down with us!"
Towards the end, "His" deep voice sounded sharp and resolute.
When True God-Tier Jing Ming heard this, he touched his chest and a determined look appeared in his eyes.
Everyone looked at Zhou Zhou.
Zhou Zhou sat on the throne and slowly said,
"I've already said everything."
"You can either surrender, withdraw from the Crimson Fire Domain, or be exterminated!"
"You don't have any other options."
"If we retreat after what you said, does that mean we will also retreat if other races said the same thing?"
"Then in the future, when other races attack us and they say these words afterward, should we turn a blind eye to them?!"
"You were the ones who crossed the line first, so there's no room for discussion."
"You guys make the decision."
"One last word of advice."
"If you want to leave some kindling for your clansmen, then surrender obediently."
"I'm tolerant of all races. I'll only kill the main culprit for their past deeds. As long as the other members of the Fire Cry Clan sincerely submit, I can let bygones be bygones."
"Looks like we cannot avoid this fight." True God-Tier Rong Yan said faintly.
