Cthulhu Gonfalon

The God of Fear had planned to send the Oracle army to cooperate with his followers in the attack, for that would bring pressure on the Void Mask and force his friends to come help him in the fight. However, at this moment, the God of Fear realized that he had been cheated by the jellyfish, and that made him so angry that he went crazy. He directly used the most powerful weapon—his own Battle Clone.

The God of Fear was a great Divine Power, so his Battle Clone was almost at the peak of mid-level Divine Power; that was naturally beyond the Power Limit of Main Plane. That was to say, his Battle Clone was supposed to be detected by the Goddess of Life's boundary as soon as it entered the Main Plane, and then it would be destroyed by a lightning bolt.

This kind of funny thing had occurred several times when the boundary was first built. After so many years, the gods had finally found the solution to it. Although it couldn't completely solve the problem, at least it could solve a part of it.

The first way was to send the clone that had less power than the limit of the boundary. It was the most common way—safe, reliable and without any side effects. But it was not available at this time since a less powerful clone couldn't win against the Void Mask in a fight.

The gods realized that the Jellyfish God, Auscar or the Void Mask, seemed not to be limited by the Goddess of Life's boundary, and his power was not constrained even though it was beyond the limit of the boundary. That made him almost invincible in the Main Plane. On the premise of the Power Limit of the Main Plane, no matter how powerful a god originally was, it was definitely impossible for his clone to defeat Sui Xiong in a fight.

The second way was to tolerate it and take no action. Sometimes, tolerance could bring a peaceful life and withdrawal could win the larger space. The world was so big that there were a lot of beautiful and pleasant things to do, so why should they keep negativity in mind?

Certainly, that would not work, either. The God of Fear was unwilling to tolerate anything. Moreover, even for the sake of his face, he could not tolerate it.

Thus, there was only the last option left.

That was to send the powerful clone, and separate its surrounding area from the Main Plane and turn this area into a temporary God's Kingdom. Thus, it could pass the judgment of the boundary and allow the clone to fight in the Main Plane freely.

But in this way, it would cause an amazing consumption of Divine Power. Unless there was a really deep hatred, no god would choose this way to break through the Power Limit of the Main Plane.

However, for the God of Fear, there was indeed a deep hatred between the Void Mask and him!

The power of the God of Fear came from humans' fear. Since he had few followers, he couldn't get enough support for being a great Divine Power relying on his followers' belief. Therefore, he was keen on spreading fear in the human world and tirelessly portraying his image as a powerful, mysterious and unpredictable god whom nobody could fight against or escape from. This would strengthen his horrible image among the people.

For a long time, it had been a successful way to create a horrible image for him. People felt scared even when he was just mentioned in their talks. It had won him a lot of power of belief from the humans. It had also helped him move forward and finally step into the realm of a great Divine Power and become the leader of the evil gods.

But this was also a double-edged sword. Once his horrible image was broken, it would easily make him lose his influence among the people. That did not mean that people did not fear him anymore, but they would just treat him as an ordinary god rather than the unpreceded God of Fear.

So the God of Fear couldn't tolerate any failures, especially failure in a large-scale battle.

Then why was there such deep hatred between Yorgaardman and him? The key reason was that Yorgaardman had defeated him once before and that severely damaged the God of Fear's image.

Now, if he and the evil gods were defeated by the Void Mask and his allies, his image would be damaged again, and things would be worse since they were fighting in front of countless people in the Main Plane this time!

So the God of Fear couldn't withdraw. He had no choice.

Around the powerful Battle Clone, the purple and black gas spread to a large area, temporarily separating a large space from the Main Plane and transforming it into a God's Kingdom.

In this way, the clone of the God of Fear stepped into the Main Plane with countless powerful Oracles around it. In this temporary God's Kingdom, there were several clones of other gods behind it, and they were ready to fight as well.

Sui Xiong stared at the sky, seeing them come closer and closer.

"There are a lot of them," he said.

"Yes, they almost cover the sky and the ground." Javier sighed. "It hasn't been a long time since the Sun's Death Day! How could a terrible war between Oracles in the human world break out so soon again!"

"We can't do anything about it since we are not the one who started it," Morani said carelessly. In the lights floating around him, many strong Half-Orcs came out wearing armor and holding tomahawks in their hands. They were Morani's Oracles, the powerful creatures named the Armored Lion Soldiers.

Then, the Goddess of Wealth, Manissy, summoned her Oracles. They were a group of children. With their entire bodies glimmering, it seemed that they were made of gold. Although they were small in size, they were not weak at all.

The Goddess of Ocean, Ariel, sighed slightly. It had not been long since she became a god, so she didn't have an army of Oracles now.

As for others, such as Javier, their Oracles were either scarce in number or weak in power, so it didn't matter whether they sent them to help in the war or not.

In the sky and on the ground, two huge Oracle armies were confronting each other, and a large-scale war was going to break out at any moment.

Sui Xiong suddenly laughed.

"Do they want to win me in the number of Oracles?" he sneered and asked. "I remember one of my seniors said that in social adventures, one would have great advantages if he had more money, more weapons, and more friends. The God of Fear, how can he be so confident about having more Oracles than I do?"

As soon as he finished his words, the giant jellyfish's body became swollen suddenly, bigger than the entire Void City, and then he breathed deeply into the sky.

His breath was as red as fire, and it turned the sky into a burning red in less than a second. Countless bodies vaguely showed up in the roaring flame.

"Burning Army, go and smash them!"

With that order, countless half-human, half-fish Oracles appeared in the flame. They roared and rushed to the army of the God of Fear.

Sui Xiong had never planned to fight with the enemy within Void City because it had cost him several decades' effort to build it. Every building, even every blade of grass and tree there had cost him, and he didn't want them to be destroyed by the enemy!

So he chose to take the initiative to attack!

Do you want to defeat me in the number of Oracles? Alright! I can create Oracles through various kinds of power, and I'm not scared of a large-scale battle.

His Oracles created from mass production were different from others'. They were a kind of purely modular creature that could be reshaped even if they were smashed as long as there was appropriate energy around them. This process did not even need his Divine Power, but its efficiency was amazingly high.

And this time, he chose fire as the power.

War and fire always went hand in hand. Thus, the only thing he had to do was to set a fire blazing constantly.

As long as the flame burned hot enough and the sea of fire was wide enough, the number of his Oracles that could be created would be too many for the enemy to bear.

He was confident about this!
