Chapter 408: Declaration of War Between Gods? Isn't That Inevitable Anyway?
The desperate divine emissary's roars continued incessantly, as the gradually approaching Extreme Path Battle-Axe made Him feel tremendous pressure.
"No... you must be a divine emissary, you absolutely cannot be a player!"
His pitch-black head was pinned to the ground by Lu Ce's foot, yet His voice continued speaking without interruption.
"Oh?..." Lu Ce paused slightly, looking at the axe in his hand with some surprise.
"How did you know this is a Broken Divine Weapon?"
After all, he wasn't currently Pride, and this specialized weapon of Pride should only display its full effectiveness when wielded by Pride himself.
When held by Laziness like him, it should theoretically only possess the power of a legendary-tier weapon.
"What do you mean how did I know? You think I can't recognize a Broken Divine Weapon?"
After saying this, He suddenly realized - this guy was trying to kill Him, so why was He even chatting!?
The head rolled several times on the ground before suddenly taking flight, with numerous tentacles sprouting from beneath the neck, resembling a floating giant octopus.Then, those black tentacles began to dance, lashing repeatedly toward Lu Ce's head.
The sharp Extreme Path Battle-Axe casually swept through the air, instantly severing all those black tentacles.
Looking down at the Hourglass of Life in his hand, he noticed that in that instant, the other party's sand was indeed draining much faster.
"Oh... it really does work."
The chosen of despair knew that in this state, He stood no chance against "Sin" - He had definitely been careless earlier.
His body wasn't a physical form but a manifestation of power, yet once truly manifested, that power would become constrained.
In other words, His current decapitated state was extremely disadvantageous.
Suddenly turning around, beneath a distant meteorite, dark streams of light flashed, accompanied by a thunderous explosion!
Amid the colossal roar, the massive meteorite instantly shattered into fragments, revealing a pitch-black, deformed body from beneath.
"Huh?!" The Creator instantly became alert, raising his hand and clenching it forcefully!
Instantly, the shattered meteorite fragments reassembled, colliding and merging together, sealing that dark body back inside!
Sweat already beaded on his forehead as his imagination and mental energy rapidly depleted. Anything he could conceive materialized in that moment.
Regardless of purpose, everything now served to suppress the body before him!
Cars, airplanes, missile launch platforms, even load-bearing walls all appeared haphazardly, piling up together!
The amalgamated spherical mass grew larger with each addition, constantly compressing, colliding, its density continuously increasing while thunderous sounds emanated from within.
It seemed as if some kind of fusion reaction was occurring inside.
The desperate divine emissary instantly grew furious, His head making a sharp turn mid-air as He attempted to fly over.
After all, if the body couldn't reconnect with the head, then the head joining the body should work just fine.
But the next second, His head made an abrupt turn in the air and crashed heavily onto the ground!
Perfect Life activated his yin-yang hands, controlling the opponent's head and pressing it firmly against the ground.
Not stopping there, he imitated "Sin's" earlier action, stepping on it with one foot while thrusting his Halberd downward with great force!
Desperate divine emissary: ?
"Goddamn it!"
He also grew infuriated and immediately began cursing!
When "Sin" had stepped on His head earlier, He hadn't complained, considering they were probably on similar levels.
But what the hell was Perfect Life?
Yet in His current state, He genuinely couldn't do anything against Perfect Life!
Damn it, His earlier assessment had been wrong - this was completely a 1VS3 situation!
"Sin! What are you doing?!" He shouted from beneath Perfect Life's foot.
"You're holding a Broken Divine Weapon - you're someone who can wield a Broken Divine Weapon!"
"You're not a player, you should be with us! You should be a divine emissary."
"What are you doing? Why must you fight? You dare kill me?! Do you have any idea what direct combat between divine emissaries signifies?!"
Before these words could elicit any reaction from Lu Ce, they first triggered Perfect Life.
His mind was in chaos, the overly chaotic scene before him leaving no time for deep thought, completely unable to distinguish friend from foe.
From the current perspective, that Creator who had injured him earlier actually seemed more like an "ally."
Wait, even the Creator was a former "old player" who had lived who knows how many years.
Why could old players participate in the game?
"Fuck! There are no normal people in this game..."
Perfect Life's brain momentarily overloaded, and he couldn't help but swear.
But he still adhered to his principles, doing what needed to be done. Looking up at "Sin," he asked:
"Why does He say you're a divine emissary? That you're not a player?"
Lu Ce slowly advanced two steps, swinging his arm to smack Perfect Life away with the flat of the Extreme Path Battle-Axe!
Perfect Life didn't have time to react, his entire body sliding across the ground for quite some distance.
"Don't get in the way."
Speaking thus, Lu Ce looked down at the head on the ground.
"What consequences?"
"Care to elaborate?"
The desperate divine emissary's head rolled laboriously on the ground before looking up at Lu Ce.
"Divine emissaries initiating combat without cause and directly killing each other will be considered provocation between gods."
"Moreover, you want to kill me! Despair is still in slumber."
"Are you trying to wake Him?!"
"Has Torment truly died, making you lot lose all discipline, or is He not dead and this is His directive?!"
The desperate divine emissary now faced reality - the "Sin" before Him clearly wasn't on His side.
And seeing the other's completely unrestrained demeanor, He could only resort to threats proactively.
Lu Ce gradually came to a stop.
"Declaration of war?"
The desperate divine emissary momentarily froze, thinking the other had been acting out of ignorance.
"Obviously! You didn't even know this?!"
"Besides, killing me brings you no benefit, and you might not even succeed."
"I truly didn't know." Lu Ce shook his head. "But, is this the consequence?"
"Isn't this... inevitable anyway?"
Desperate divine emissary: ?
What did He just hear?
The next second, that lazy face before Him instantly turned ferocious again, both hands raising the battle-axe high before swinging down with tremendous force!
Boom!
The golden axe blade sank halfway in! Within the Hourglass of Life, the sand began draining rapidly!
"Ahhhhhh!"
The desperate divine emissary began screaming miserably as, simultaneously, the aura of despair throughout the room grew unprecedentedly powerful!
"Stop... you fool..."
"He... is awakening... you cannot..."
