Chapter 1264 Go Big Or Go Home.


    ??There were a lot of believers who didn''t like Supreme beasts in the first ce so this was a good opportunity for them to punish one. This way, many people signed up for the army. The army quickly reached 100 million in size.


    The Celestial evenpelled other weaker gods to work with him to pressure Legion-5. The army doubled in number because of it. 200 million soldiers were rearing to have a go at the Shadow Of Despair.


    The other Celestials were full of envy as they watched this. They want something like this to happen to them because there is a chance that the Celestial of Light will seed with his scheme. After all, Legion-5 might buy off the Celestial of Light and Justice if the god proves to be too troublesome to deal with.


    This chance is very high. So even though there is also a chance that the Celestial of Light and Justice will lose the fight against Legion-5 and lose any deterrence force that he has against the other Supreme beasts, he still went all in wholeheartedly.


    He might lose any chance of gaining citizenship if he doesn''t give it his all. So he held nothing back. He even forced a few greater gods and some high gods to fight Legion-5 together with him. The gods weren''t fooled by the usations but they couldn''t dare not to listen to them and they couldn''t dare to refuse the request to help from the Celestial of Light and Justice.


    It is as they say, you either go big or you go home. The Celestial of Light is willing to risk it all. He even borrowed money to gamble on this opportunity. He used the money to build his mortal army and hire powerful fighters from the path of perfection. It will improve his chances of sess further.


    It is money and resources that he doesn''t n to repay. If he fails, then there is no more salvation. So he is also not concerned about returning the soldiers that he forcefully borrowed from other gods. This way, over 50 million soldiers were quickly recruited into the army to make a total of 250 million.


    Some were carried away by the propaganda against the sphemer but others were very clear about the situation. They knew that the uing grand war would not be because of a pope that died. Her death was tragic but she is not worth so much effort that a god is willing to disregard everything for.


    The gods aren''t stupid. Even the Celestial of light and justice who is usually rash is not that stupid. He is just a determined god with a stubborn personality. That''s why he is willing to gamble everything he has on this opportunity.


    The Celestial of Light and Justice wanted to curry favor with the Shadow of Despair but that didn''t work out. Still, the endeavor was not aplete failure or waste of time. He was snubbed and in return, he gained a justified reason to fight Legion-5.


    Legion-5 was the one that offended him so he won''t be breaking the conditions of his contract not to antagonize or bully the young Supreme Beasts. Plus this is a great opportunity to take Legion-5 down.


    Legion-5 has be estranged from the other Supreme beasts so he won''t receive help from them easily. Legion-5 has only one base so the Celestial can corner him. Legion-5 doesn''t have arge army either so the might of the entire church of Light and Justice will be able to pressure him if not eliminate him. Everything looked too good for this attempt to fail.


    If the Celestial waits then Legion-5 will be given time to convert the resources he just gained into troops. In fact, other Supreme beasts might use this opportunity to take advantage of Legion-5. The allure of the points and the resources he has will surely tempt them.


    So the Celestial believes that he has a shot at making Legion-5 pay the price of 100 points for him. Legion-5 can surely afford it. If not, then the two of them can work together to extort the other Supreme beasts for more points.


    The drums of war were beaten all over the ne. The banner of Light and Justice was raised. The songs of victory were sung. The faithful and the believers were assembled. They matched forward for justice to be served and for the glory of their god to be made known.


    As true believers, they will use their lives to fight for the death of their pope and the disrespect to their god. Such sphemy cannot be allowed to go unanswered. The Celestial of Light and Justice made sure to fan the mes within these foolish mortals.


    Themotion couldn''t be hidden. Most supreme beasts knew immediately the pope died because they were always watching the Shadow of Despair''s base. They are also always informed about the happenings of the ne so they saw the mobilization of the church of light and justice.


    If they didn''t know what was truly happening before, they certainly knew when a certain angry female Supreme beast sneered and said, "The Celestial of Light and Justice surely has everything nned out. This whole war is just an exhibition of his strength and influence to force the Shadow of Despair into working together with him. He does not want the Shadow of Despair dead, but he will surely try to make it happen. This is very good."


    The young Supreme Beast who imed to be good with words was quick to disagree with her. "It is not good at all. You are focused on the trouble that this will bring to the Shadow of Despair and not the trouble that this will bring to us if the Celestial of Light seeds."


    That statement got them all thinking. They were excited earlier that the Shadow of Despair was being targeted by a Celestial this early into thepetition. But now they couldn''t help but consider the future repercussions of this war.
