Chapter 1635 – 1635. God’s Atlantis
The situation in the desert was going against the allies.
7 districts joined the alliance, 4 districts claimed neutrality, and the remaining 12 districts declared non-alignment.
‘The desert alliance has failed.’
Even if you can’t do it, you can have a huge influence if you have an alliance of more than 10 zones.
‘Did I join the alliance for no reason?’
It might have been more profitable to attack the Desert Forest area without joining an alliance. Because plundering dancers is one way.
‘The ones who vaguely proclaimed neutrality are the most annoying.’
I felt the intention to openly do bats. If the alliance is advantageous, they will try to spoon it, and if the alliance is disadvantageous, they will turn to non-alignment.
‘I’m so annoyed, but the ruler of the desert forest, who can be said to be the subject of the desert alliance, must be even more angry.’
I looked out the window. It was pouring rain. It’s been a week since Oasis disappeared. I don’t know about other areas, but there is no damage to the area I control. It rains once a week, and the citizens are praising me.
“Heavenly Demon.”
Enas has arrived.
“What.”
“I got a call from the desert forest. I found traces of the owner of the oasis.”
“It’s a bit late. Where are you?”
“Area 5,144, golden desert.”
I curled up the corners of my mouth. Things are getting interesting.
Area 5,144, Golden Desert is one of the non-aligned areas. The bigger problem is that it is the largest and richest district in the Golden West Desert. As the name suggests, the Golden Desert is an area with gold mines. In addition, it is a place with 1 super large oasis and 5 large oasis.
‘This must be a headache in the desert forest.’
To subdue the owner of the oasis, you must go to the golden desert. The non-aligned Golden Desert was unlikely to cooperate with the Desert Forest.
“Enas. How do you think the desert forest will turn out?”
“If I were the ruler of the desert forest… I will spread rumors.”
“Rumor?”
“There is a rumor that the Golden Desert is working with the owner of the oasis to take possession of all the desert oases. We will use the rumors to gain cooperation from the Golden Desert.”
As Enas had said, rumors began to circulate in the desert.
There was a rumor that the owner of the oasis was in the golden desert. The gaze of the desert gathered on the golden desert.
I thought that the Golden Desert would blame the Desert Forest for their absurdity. However, contrary to my expectations, the Golden Desert announced that it would cooperate with the Desert Forest.
“They didn’t join the alliance, but they said they cooperate…. If this is the case, wouldn’t it be more convenient to join an alliance from the beginning?”
“Anyway, the ruler of the Golden Desert seems to have noticed the citizens.”
Human sacrifice.
It’s nothing to rulers like me, but it’s really like something from the point of view of being subjected to human sacrifice.
• • •
Callas, the ruler of the desert forest, has summoned an alliance to subdue the ‘Oasis owner’. Even if it was an alliance, the ruler did not have to act directly. What Callas wanted was combat personnel. However, I personally led my troops to the Golden Desert.
Because the ruler of the golden desert limited the number of people, the number of people he could bring was limited to 30. Including the alliance, the strength was 210.
I was able to meet Callas, the ruler of the Desert Forest, in the outskirts of the Golden Desert. He, like me, came with a concentrated force.
Callas was a bronze-skinned desert elf. He is a man
“Nice to meet you, Heavenly Demon. Area 5,140, the ruler of the desert forest, Callas.”
Contrary to the appearance of a man in his early 20s, his voice was similar to that of a middle-aged person.
“Cheonma, the owner of the Heavenly Demon Church.”
“I have heard of your reputation. I was able to relax because you joined the alliance.”
There were people covered in black cloth behind Callas. I feel restrained energy. All of them are close to elite soldiers. Warriors sent from other alliances were below standard. It didn’t seem like it would help much.
“Calas. I would like you to share information about the owner of Oasis.”
“Of course I think so. The owner of the oasis is a god called Set. Have you ever heard of him?”
“I know it’s an Egyptian god.”
“Set is the god of the earth. He is a god who can cause sandstorms and control oases. He is also the god of war.”
“He is a god of great rank. Why is a guy like that acting petty like this?”
“This is only speculation by the sorcerers, but… Human sacrifice is to build strength. That means Set is weak now. Now is the perfect opportunity to kill God Set.”
“Where is he?”
“I don’t know the exact location. Don’t worry, the ruler of the golden desert will help us.”
“Do you think the ruler of the Golden Desert will cooperate until the end?”
“I heard that the ruler of the Golden Desert offered 500 women to the owner of the oasis. As the oases are large and numerous, the number of offerings has also increased. As the rulers of the golden desert, they must be eager to subjugate the owner of the oasis.”
“Even so, you don’t join the alliance? The back of your head tickles.”
“You shouldn’t trust the ruler of the golden desert too much. We are not his hounds. Be careful not to boil it.”
Heading to the center of the Golden Desert with his warriors.
Soon after, he noticed the specialness of the golden desert. The temperature is about 2-3 degrees lower than the scorpion desert I rule. Cactuses and herds of wild camels are also often seen. What is surprising is that you can see an oasis every 2-3 km.
“You see Oasis often.”
It’s a small oasis, but it will be of great help to those who cross the desert.
“Is this desert called the Golden Desert for nothing? I heard that this desert is dotted with small oases.”
“There are forests in the desert over there, and oases abound here…. Fuck. Only my area is barren.”
“I heard that it often rains in the Fortress Scorpion Desert.”
“It is artificial rain. It is raining because there is no oasis.”
“That is even greater. Didn’t man overcome nature with his power? The people of the Scorpion Desert will praise you.”
“They already praised me. Thanks to that, city management has become easier.”
We passed Oasis. It was not leisurely enough to spend time in the oasis. The desert alliance that did not accept the oasis owner’s proposal is in a dry situation. We must subdue the owner of the oasis as soon as possible to get the oasis back.
“Arrival.”
Callas said.
In front of us was a half-destroyed temple.
Wheein.
A weak wind of sand blew around the temple.
“The owner of the oasis in that temple… There will be a set.”
“From the looks of it, it looks like someone broke the seal. Isn’t the ruler of the golden desert the cause?”
“I said no in my own words… I think he is the cause. I can’t hold you accountable for that.”
There was one reason why I couldn’t ask for responsibility. The Golden Desert, the richest in the Western Desert, has a power that is burdensome to deal with.
“Get out of the way.”
“… What do you plan to do?”
“Look at that temple. Just looking at it, doesn’t it look like there’s a trap lurking? You will definitely suffer from the moment you enter that temple.”
“Hmm. Do you have a lot of experience in this way? You speak like a veteran adventurer.”
“I am the one who fell into hell and killed the demon king. Most adventurers can’t even hold out their business cards in front of me.”
“So what are you going to do?”
“I will do this.”
I put the temple in front of me and focused on my breathing. The heart races. The Cheonmagi created in Danjeon spreads throughout the body. I can feel the power of the Heavenly Demon Goddess.
He raised his right fist. Dark strong energy begins to condense into the fist.
Heavenly Demon God Dragon Fist.
Raise your fist towards the temple. A shock wave emanated from the fist that hit the air, and the condensed heavenly demon rushed into the temple.
Aaaaagh!
The temple collapses. It was natural. The half-destroyed temple from the beginning could not withstand my fist.
“The temple of the owner of the oasis is destroyed.”
“The sacred temple has been destroyed. God’s curse falls on you.”
Dark energy fell from the sky on me. Callas, who was watching from the side, opened his eyes in amazement.
“Curse! God’s curse has fallen! Heavenly Horse! Are you okay?!”
“Noisy. A curse like this, it’s no big deal.”
He spoke calmly, but the curse was quite strong.
“The curse of the desert falls upon you.”
“The monsters of the desert are against you.”
“You cannot drink the water of the oasis.”
“You will suffer from thirst.”
“All stats decrease by 20% while in the desert.”
The effects of the curse were immediate. As 20% of his stats decreased, his body suddenly became heavy. I just wanted to sit down on the floor and rest.
‘Heaven.’
[Heavenly Heart is activated. Lasts 1 minute.]
The curse disappears. My body felt light again.
“The temple was destroyed, but the owner of the oasis to be subdued seems to be intact. What now?”
“The temple is more….”
I kept my mouth shut. It was the same with Callas. It was because a huge presence was felt in the broken temple.
The broken temple shakes, and a figure with a beast’s head and a forked tail steps out of the temple. Standing tall on the sand, he looked at me and Callas.
“The owner of Oasis is glaring at you.”
“Aww!”
Callas lets out a groan and steps back. I was momentarily bewildered. I couldn’t understand why he suddenly withdrew.
Callas, staggering, eventually headed behind me. Set stares at me.
“Huh. And, indeed, the god of war who is said to have strong power…. I was only staring at you, but this kind of pressure…. Heavenly horse Are you okay?”
“Tolerable.”
“It’s really great.”
Actually, I didn’t feel any pressure or anything. It seems that Set was playing some trick, but it didn’t work because I was using the spirit of heaven.
“The owner of Oasis despises you.”
“O unbelievers, you do not deserve the blessings of this earth. I will wet the sand with your blood.”
Set stamped the floor with the stick in his hand.
The sand rose up and became a soldier with a spear and shield.
