Chapter 1599: Falling Like Dominos.
?
Every Tyrant that was confident a few moments ago became less confident immediately they knew that a demon god had invaded. Those without Supreme Power ran away immediately to avoid the demon god. After all, a demon god is a fatal weakness to Tyrants without Supreme Power to resist.
The sight made WRATH excited. It didn''t bother to be conservative. It roared in excitement, "Fight! Fight! Fight!"
WRATH was cheering itself and everyone around it on. Its shout was inducing those running away to anger. Instead of escaping for their lives, they began fighting each other or rushing back to fight it.
They may have the power of Origin gods thanks to the boost from their POWER stat, but as long as they haven''t fused with a concept to protect their existence, then WRATH''s mere incitement will work on them.
The situation made the Supreme Tyrants with the power of the realm to stand up and fight. They also don''t have concepts, but their connection to the realm protects them from WRATH. Unfortunately, being unaffected by the roar of a demon god is not nearly enough in this defensive battle. They have to do more than that if they hope to defend their realm. So the 100,000 of them surrounded WRATH and tried to kill this body of its.
WRATH roared inughter and boiled even more. Its form shifted to produce tentacles and whips. It met the attacks of the Supreme Tyrants with force. 100,000 is actually too many for it to fight at once, but it didn''t retreat. It surged forward to drown them while the Supreme Tyrants were shouting to themselves, "Quickly destroy it."
They were seeding in that goal. WRATH''srge body was quickly dwindling as it was bombarded with attacks from all around. Unfortunately, they were not killing it fast enough. WRATH has invested about two-thirds of its total energy into this invasion. Its body is about the size of ten nes. 100,000 people, on the other hand, are insignificantpared to the size of a ne.
A million Origin gods didn''t seed in destroying the previous Virut ne because Mother High Heaven was healing and reinforcing it. WRATH is not a world god or world ender, but it is also not a defenseless ne that can only take a beating. It is a ne that is ten timesrger than the normal one and can fish out as much damage as is delivered to it.
This situation put the battle at a stalemate. But WRATH is constantly losing energy in the fight, so they are winning. If they had 10 years, they might be able to kill WRATH with their continuous attacks or at least beat WRATH back to whence it came.
Unfortunately, all the time they had was less than 10 seconds before it left the realm rift. They couldn''t kill it in 10 seconds, so another demon god could pass through the realm rift and join them.
The Supreme Tyrants felt despair at that point. They may have supreme power, but they are only sovereigns. This innate inferiority made them a little afraid of WRATH and despair at the sight of more demon gods joining the fight.
One of them asked, "What does a realm war have to do with you? You are a demon. You are supposed to sabotage your realm."
What it didn''t say is that, even if WRATH was entric and decided to help its realm, it shouldn''t be working with other demon gods. Even when the abyss of the Tyrant realm was threatened, the demons still didn''t work together, so this was very unexpected.
But WRATH didn''t reply. It roared in triumph, "You will suffer! Your realm will burn, and blood will flow! That blood will boil and feed me. Behold, for I am the boiling blood, and I havee."
It dered grandly, but it didn''t bother to fight the Supreme Tyrants. Instead, it went after the defenseless Tyrants. They don''t have a concept to protect their existence, so their raw power is useless in the face of its false Supreme Law of Chaos.
Some Tyrants managed to dispel their clones in time to escape, but many more were not so fortunate. All WRATH needed was a touch. Just one touch, and theirnd domains, living hosts, and army of the dead are doomed. With one touch, WRATH infected their existence and sank into them.
WRATH shrank in size rapidly after making contact with many prey. This reduction is not due to the constant attacks on it. It is because WRATH was tunneling through matter with pieces of itself to the location of the domains of the prey it had touched.
WRATH was scattering itself into the realm through the Tyrants. The Tyrants were like tunnels for it to bypass the divine realm and enter the main realm directly. They were awork of roots, and it was a disease gnawing on those roots. The Supreme Tyrants couldn''t stop it, despite doing their best.
The reduction in the size of WRATH reduced the amount of energy it had and its defense, so it was quickly destroyed. But WRATH didn''t care. It prioritized invading the realm over fighting the Supreme Tyrants.
GLUTTONYined behind it, "Leave some for me."
LUST and the other demon gods came after GLUTTONY. Aeternus camest. He left the barrier open behind him so that the other demons could enter. By the time he arrived, the divine ne was already in shambles.
He said to himself, "It is as expected. The Tyrants didn''t stand a chance."
He expected this oue since he had acquired information about the weakness of the Tyrants. It is not a weakness per se, as many races are weak to demons.
What happened to the Tyrants is what would have happened to Legion had Ragnarok sumbed to CARNAGE. The only difference is that Ragnarok is not the whole realm.
The Tyrant race has be the whole realm. This granted them a lot of power, but it also made it so that if they fall, the whole realm might fall with them. They are like the first piece of a stack of dominoes. The whole stack will fall once that piece falls.
