189: Chapter 189 Athena's Wrath!

Just as the Heavenly Dynasty Alliance was intensely preparing for battle.

At the other end of the Abyssal Passage, Di Gulov sat upon his throne, fingers lightly tapping the armrest.

Below, Demon King looked up slightly, a hint of confusion flashing in his crimson eyes.

"Your Majesty, why give them half a month? We could have struck while the iron was hot..."

"Foolish," Di Gulov interrupted flatly.

"The cost of forcibly breaking through the spatial barrier is too great. Even if successful, our strength would be significantly diminished."

"But in half a month, the barrier between the two worlds will enter a weakening phase. At that time, we can descend with minimal cost."

His gaze was deep, as if piercing through the endless void to see the scene on the other side.

"And... I also want to see what kind of surprises those ignorant humans can bring me."

Demon King nodded, half-understanding, not daring to say more.

Di Gulov slowly closed his eyes, and the entire abyss fell back into dead silence.

Only Abyssal Power flowed slowly through the passage, like the calm before a storm.

...

Meanwhile, Lu Yin returned to the Holy Hall Academy.

His goal for this half-month was clear: level up with all his might and create the strongest Death Legion.

He checked the current capacity of his Death Space.

[Death Space Capacity: 1495/2370!]

After completing his second turn and obtaining the Death God Temple, his Death Space capacity had increased significantly.

If he could fully equip it, this force could potentially tip the scales of the entire war.

He had already decided on the location to assemble his Death Legion: the third floor of the Gods Dormitory.

This was a mysterious floor where no students were currently able to reside.

Stepping onto the stairs to the third floor, a long-sealed aura of time and space washed over him.

The corridor was decorated in an ancient style, with old patterns carved upon it.

At the end of his vision was a glowing Dungeon teleportation vortex.

Lu Yin stepped forward quickly to check the Dungeon information.

[wrath of athena]

[Level Restriction: Below Lv80]

[Recommended Players: 1]

[Dungeon Difficulty: Normal/Hard/Nightmare/Hell/God]

[Daily Limit: 1 time]

"God-level difficulty?"

Lu Yin glanced at the info; this was a Dungeon related to Athena.

Athena is the embodiment of war and wisdom, and one of the few Main Gods currently known to humanity.

For example, the Golden Fighter of the Golden Cult is a Mythic Class under her command.

Without any hesitation, Lu Yin directly chose God-level difficulty.

With a flash of light, Lu Yin found himself standing on the ruins of an ancient battlefield.

He looked around and saw broken weapons and shattered statues scattered across the scorched earth.

In the distance, the ruins of a towering temple could be faintly seen, emitting a faint golden light.

"Kill! Protect the Goddess Athena!"

Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed from all directions.

Then, a group of powerful fighters wearing various armors rushed toward him.

[bronze fighters (Aquila)]

[Level: 70]

[Strength: 24,000, Constitution: 245,000]

[Agility: 24,000, Intelligence: 210,000]

[Skills: Aquila Flash, Meteor Dive, Eagle Eye Insight, Star Feather Barrier, Wings of the Storm]

[bronze fighters (Orion)]

[Level: 75]

[Strength: 25,500, Constitution: 268,000]

[Agility: 27,900, Intelligence: 206,000]

[Skills: Orion Light Trace, Orion Triple Star, Cloud-Piercing Sky-Rend, Nebula Leap, Three-Star Convergence: Penetrate]

[...]

Lu Yin looked at the attributes of these fighters; they were definitely top-tier for their level, perfect for building his death army.

With a light wave of his hand, the Death Space opened, nearly a thousand magic circles lit up, and an equal number of Death Soldier stepped out.

The battle was triggered instantly, and various skills whistled through the air.

"Heavenly Dragon Meteor Fist!"

"Pegasus Rising Dragon Strike!"

"..."

The Death Legion naturally refused to be outdone, launching a counterattack led by the six Legion Commanders.

"Oath of the Eternal Guardian!"

"Black Flame Sovereign!"

Yarberna and Kasa simultaneously expanded their talent domains, buffing the Death Soldier.

"End of All Things!"

"Thousand Shadow Hands!"

Hill and Krausi released area-of-effect skills; countless arrows and a beam of destructive light fell upon the bronze fighters.

Immediately, a large number of damage numbers floated up.

-3,235,564! -3,564,452! -3,633,556!

...

[Ding! You killed a bronze fighters, experience points increased by 550,000 (-20%)!]

[Ding! Your level has increased to Level 67!]

[Ding! Obtained Rare soul of death × 1!]

[...]

A large number of kill notifications appeared, causing Lu Yin's body to flash with golden light as he leveled up.

The fallen bronze fighters were all converted by Lu Yin using Rare souls of death.

Their damaged armor was restored and turned pitch black, as they became honorable Meidou Shi.

The battle continued, with a steady stream of bronze fighters being added to the Death Legion, making his army grow ever larger.

At the same time, his experience points kept climbing, bringing Lu Yin close to Level 68.

After all, this was a Trial of the Gods, and he had chosen the highest God difficulty, so such results were perfectly normal.

About three hours later, as the last bronze fighters was converted, the battlefield fell silent for a moment.

Lu Yin did a rough calculation; he had killed a total of 100 bronze fighters.

His level had reached 69, nearing the Level 70 mark.

Just as Lu Yin intended to take a short break, the dense sound of breaking wind echoed from the surroundings again.

Lu Yin's gaze sharpened as he saw dozens of figures clad in silver-white armor closing in.

The aura of these silver fighters was clearly several times stronger than that of the bronze fighters, with brilliant starlight swirling around them.

[silver fighters (Lyra)]

[Level: 80]

[Strength: 35,000, Constitution: 360,000]

[Agility: 35,500, Intelligence: 320,000]

[Skills: Stringer Requiem, Silver Anthem, Star Chord Resonance, Silver Protection]

[silver fighters (Cetus)]

[Level: 80]

[Strength: 38,000, Constitution: 390,000]

[Agility: 33,500, Intelligence: 280,000]

[Skills: Cetus Super Spout Punch, Tidal Resonance, Vortex Bind, Whale Fall Kill]

The appearance of the silver fighters caused the atmosphere of the entire battlefield to suddenly tighten.

Their silver-white armor gleamed in the dim light, and every step they took brought a heavy pressure, as if even the air was stagnating.

But Lu Yin felt more excitement than anything else.

The strength of these silver fighters far exceeded that of the bronze fighters; they were exactly the elite forces his Death Legion needed.

There was nothing left to say; various skills instantly intertwined.

Given the absolute gap in numbers and attributes, even silver-level fighters were no match for Lu Yin's death army.

Lu Yin checked; this wave consisted of exactly fifty silver fighters.

After converting them, another fifty appeared.

This cycle continued until the tenth round of harvesting was complete, and the scene became quiet once again.
