Chapter 889: Vol V Chapter 249

The moment this topic was broached, everyone seemed to be somewhat uncomfortable.

Unlike the elves, dwarves, aborigines of the Marsh, and even the dragons, the Void Mask, Auscar, was extremely powerful.

This Jellyfish God did not have many followers under his command. It was just the level of a small God System. But in the Void Alliance with him as the core, there was something as massive as the War God System. Just the power that the War God System alone could mobilize was more than what most of the other God Systems could.

Of course, the most important aspect of a war between gods was still to see which side had top-rate martial skills. And in terms of top-rate martial skills, the Void Alliance was fearfully strong.

The Void Mask and the God of Justice were both consummate masters with enough strength to be evenly matched with a great God System, while the God of War was a symbolic figure of the great Divine Powers. Though the God of Law and the Goddess of Wealth had just stepped into the realm of great Divine Powers quite recently, they were also truly phenomenal masters.

This line-up of five great Divine Powers was currently second to none among all the alliances in the Pantheon Temple. An alliance between the Orcs and Dwarves might barely be able to put together such a line-up of masters, though.

Needless to say, the Dwarf Gods were also allies of the Void God System, and both sides had cooperated extensively over the years. Therefore, the relationship between them was extremely strong. And the most popular belief within the elven race at the moment was that of the God of Medicine—he was literally a follower of the Void Mask, a god who was raised from a mortal.

Not only that, the alliance master of the Void Alliance, the Void Mask, Auscar himself, was extremely powerful.

Very, very, very powerful!

Super powerful!

During that great battle between the Alliance of Evil Gods and the War God System, he practically defeated two God Systems all by himself. Within a short moment, he had killed hundreds of evil gods. He fought the War God System to the point where his opponents cast their armor and dropped their arms, then fled hurriedly. The alliance master of the Alliance of Evil Gods, the God of Fear, suffered a heavy blow. Soon after, he was apprehended by the God of Justice, brought to trial and then sentenced to death.

Such a situation where one man could defeat two great God Systems and kill hundreds of gods all at once was unheard of before.

Many gods even suspected that when the Void Mask executed his most terrifying “continuous explosion” power, his power might have reached the level of greater Divine Power.

And most, most important of all… the Void Mask, Auscar, was currently the only god who was not restricted by the enchantment of the Main Plane. He had the freedom to move and attack as he wished on the Main Plane.

This was of utmost importance because it meant that if he wanted to, all he needed was his power alone to change the power equation of the Main Plane according to his own will.

In the face of such a great Divine Power who could execute his power to his heart’s content, no matter how many clones the gods sent down, the powers of those clones would only be at the level of a weak Divine Power. They would be helpless and powerless against him.

So many gods felt that given the current situation, the key was to successfully vie for power on the Main Plane was to build a good relationship with the Void Mask.

The Orc Gods also felt the same way, which was why they chose to concede when the Jellyfish God put the “ISIS” organization to trial and destroyed it. This was because they knew that even if they wanted to make an argument, reality would be such that they would never win.

Of course, they would have thought of putting up a fight. Yet in the end, they had to back down. They could only watch helplessly as the Void Mask swept across the Orc Empire, killing as he moved. Eventually, he killed tens of thousands of people.

Tens of thousands of followers killed all at once, including a large number of fanatical followers, was an extremely difficult loss for any God System to bear. Especially when the Void Mask did things mercilessly. After contacting hell, for every person he killed, a Hell Messenger would directly catch that soul and send it to trial to receive a Judgement of Hell… This caused the most severe damage to the Orc Gods.

In the three to four years that followed, there appeared a large number of civilians among the Orcs who became Half-Orcs because they were no longer devoted themselves to believing the gods.

That incident had greatly affected the relationship between the Orc Gods and the Void Mask. Since then, there was little communication between them. Even the other gods in the Void Alliance seemed to minimize contact with the Orc Gods.

So now, when someone suggested asking the Void Mask for help, the Orc Gods could not help feeling somewhat embarrassed.

They looked at each other, not knowing what to say. Finally, all eyes concentrated on the God of Orcs, Lefon.

Lefon was silent for a long time. And finally, he sighed deeply.

“Let’s give it a shot,” he said. “I don’t carry much hope, but… we should give it a shot anyway.”

Now that this was said, there was no longer any pressure hovering over him. He went on to say, “But, it may not be so effective if it’s just us going to look for him. You all shall go to the Dwarf God System first. Get the Dwarf God System to help by being the middleman. Then rope in a few elders of the elven race… The Void Mask maybe a jellyfish, but in terms of character, he’s a good man who is kind and upright. He has good relations with the dwarves and elves. It should be helpful to us if we can enlist their help in persuading him.”

“Doesn’t the Void Mask have the best relationship with the humans?” asked one of the gods.

“Yes, that’s apparently so,” Lefon said. He gave a little laugh and said, “But what does it matter? He’s obviously someone who is concerned about what’s right and wrong and pays no regard to background and origin. It is not a big deal if we are the ones attacking the humans. But this time, the human gods are going to wage war for the purpose of unifying the Main Plane. From aggressors, we have become defenders. It’s highly possible that he will help us out of sympathy.”

“But back during the time where we attacked the Kingdom of Eagle, he did not make any attempt to help the Kingdom of Eagle.”

“He did not do anything personally. But the first general under his command, the archbishop of the Church of the Void Mask, Leon Igor, did come forward to help. Of course, as we all know, Leon Igor’s in quite a unique position. He was the prince of the Kingdom of Eagle. If the throne had not been usurped, he would have become the King of Eagles—But at the same time, Crick Keane, who has become his Holy Spirit later on, also participated in the war. Perhaps this should be enough to show his stand.”

“Wasn’t Crick Keane forced to participate in the war? He had complained about it more than once after he fortunately survived the war.”

“Whether it’s voluntarily or forcibly, it’s an indisputable fact that he eventually took part in that battle.”

The gods discussed incessantly, and for that moment, the entire place became a little noisy.

Lefon made some coughing sounds and motioned the gods to keep quiet. Then his gaze fell on the few gods who assumed the roles of messengers.

“We don’t have much hope, but we have to fight for it anyhow,” he said. After a slight pause, he added, “You all have to bear in mind that during negotiation, don’t talk about the war between us and the humans. Try your best to steer the topic towards the dwarves and elves. Emphasize the war between them and the humans. So long as we can get them involved and tie them to us, there will be greater hope for us.”

He was silent for a moment, then with a little sigh, he said, “Otherwise… I’m afraid that jellyfish won’t help us at all…”

Then he issued quite a number of orders and got the messengers to carefully select some rare treasures from the treasure vault. Thereafter, he sent them off to look for the dwarves and elves to form a Joint Mission of Messengers.
