Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years
Chapter 842 What a mess this was turning out to be?After Zeus had finished handing over everything, he disappeared as if he were an employee resigning without even wanting his last paycheck, leaving behind a group of gods and both Odin and Uranus looking at each other in bewilderment.
With Zeus having "resigned" and left, the remaining gods of the Divine Alliance naturally gave up any resistance.
Odin and Uranus had planned for years, paying countless prices, and had meticulously strategized as if anticipating every move in a chess game.
But just as they made their move, their opponent conceded and walked away...
It was as if they had identified an opponent, trained painstakingly for tens of thousands of years, expecting a tough battle, even preparing a victory speech, but their opponent didn't fight and just said, "Okay, you win."
The feeling was...
Too complex!
Did they win?
It seemed so.
Did they achieve their goal?
It seemed they did.
But neither Odin nor Uranus could feel happy about it.
Because Zeus seemed very happy...
Odin and Uranus exchanged glances, then a question arose: who would manage the Divine Realm now?
Odin frowned and said, "Uranus, since the overall situation is settled, I'll leave the rest to you."
Uranus was silent...
The situation was settled, but there was still a mess to clean up.
Neither Uranus nor Odin, having endured so much over the years, really cared about power at their level of strength.
Defeating the Divine Alliance and unifying the Divine Realm had been like their life's driving force, around which they could plan many other things, making life fulfilling yet interesting.
But now?
Zeus had left, effectively putting a full stop to that driving force.
What remained was just a headache.
As Uranus was lost in thought, Odin had already disappeared.
"Uranus, I'm off to pursue another breakthrough in strength. After that, let's have a good drink together."
This was the only message echoing in the Thunder Sanctum.
Some priests were utterly confused,Odin really seemed in a hurry to leave.
Other priests felt that Odin's words were just an excuse to avoid a power struggle with Uranus, a gesture of deference...
Uranus almost gritted his teeth in frustration. That shameless Odin, who had just made a breakthrough not long ago, was now using it as an excuse?
He might just be off to have fun somewhere.
Zeus and Odin's actions left the priests with little to say.
After all, Odin and Uranus had agreed to Zeus's terms to keep everything the same and to treat them well, so who ruled the Divine Realm, did it really make a difference?
Under the rule of Odin and Uranus in the northern part of the Divine Realm, things weren't too bad.
If under Uranus's rule, the Shapeshifters and demons ceased their evil deeds and simultaneously restrained the gods, wouldn't that create peace in the Divine Realm?
Some gods thought of these things, and their view of Uranus changed.
They were also communicating these thoughts through telepathy, which Uranus easily overheard.
Today, he had led his resurrected daughters to kill so many gods, and on the Thunder Sanctum, not a single god cursed him, and a good number of them had already decided to support him as the ruler of the Divine Realm!
The survival rule of the Divine Realm was that the strong prevail. Since Zeus no longer cared about the Divine Alliance, someone had to take charge, right?
Uranus stood in the center of the Thunder Sanctum, his gaze sweeping over the gods of the Divine Alliance, his feelings complex.
Many lords who had once been displaced and had joined his Shapeshifters because they had offended William the Obliterator or because they looked tasty had fallen. Those Shapeshifters who had fought alongside their Ultimate Force Alliance were nearly at a point where no one was usable. Now that the gods of the Divine Alliance were willing to submit, there would be fewer battles in the future, and what was needed more were managerial talents...
They had attacked the headquarters of the Divine Alliance, the Sanctuary of the Celestial Gods, and operated in such a way just to unify the Divine Realm.
At the level of power of the sky god Uranus, to advance further in strength, gaining the power of faith became extremely important, and now the goal had been achieved.
Was Uranus supposed to learn from Zeus and "resign" and leave?
That seemed very unreliable.
But managing this vast Divine Realm...
In the past, Uranus had managed it, and now thinking back, it still felt somewhat tiring.
"Gods, who among you wishes to manage the Divine Realm in my place?"
Uranus also had a beautiful thought,he only wanted the power of faith derived from the people of the Divine Realm after ruling it. If he could find someone to manage the Divine Realm for him, and he did nothing, wouldn't that be wonderful?
"Lord Sky God Uranus, who else butyou is qualified to lead the gods now?"
No sooner had Uranus spoken these words than a god raised this challenge.
No one would obey another person managing the Divine Realm.
So, Uranus had to take charge.
Uranus was overwhelmed with frustration and said, "I have no interest in managing the entire Divine Realm."
"Lord Uranus, are you joking with us?"
"You've gone to great lengths, leading the Ultimate Force Alliance's army to defeat the Divine Alliance and take control of the southern region of the Divine Realm, and now you don't want to manage it?"
"Zeus has disappeared, and if you don't take charge, won't the Divine Realm fall into chaos?"
"For the sake of all creatures in the Divine Realm, please, Lord Uranus, take good care of the affairs of the Divine Realm."
The various pleas came all at once, and these priests seemed to have suddenly forgotten who was slaughtering their colleagues and friends just a moment ago.
After all, the greater good of the entire Divine Realm was at stake.
Uranus couldn't help but laugh bitterly,was he supposed to be responsible for this mess without even enjoying any of it?
The power of faith could indeed make him stronger, but ever since he realized the extent of William the Obliterator's strength, he had felt an urge to give up.
Get stronger?
How much stronger could he get?
In the end, it was just a matter of a slap from William the Obliterator.
Apart from William the Obliterator, no one could kill him.
If even Zeus wouldn't fight him, what use was there in becoming so powerful through the power of faith?
At this moment, the supreme authority of the Divine Realm in Uranus's hands felt like something of no practical value that he was reluctant to discard, yet it would be a pity to give up...
Uranus finally understood why Zeus had surrendered without a fight.
Damn it!
All the scheming, was Zeus just eagerly waiting for them to attack?
The best hunters often appear in the guise of their prey, wasn't that Zeus?
What a scheme!
Over the years, Zeus had absorbed enough power of faith, and now by leaving, he ended up free and easy. How could he think of anything but a win? Was he supposed to struggle here for tens of thousands of years like Zeus?
Now that he ruled the Divine Realm, there was almost nowhere left to conquer, and his days would likely be filled with trivial matters...
Ah, the frustration!
Even if there were places to conquer, Uranus had completely lost interest by now.
"Are you teaching me how to do my job?" Uranus, unable to contain his anger, swept his gaze over the gods and said, "I don't have time for this nonsense. Whoever wants to manage it, go ahead." With a wave of his sleeve, he addressed the leaders of the Ultimate Force Alliance's army, "Follow me!"
After saying this, Uranus felt decisively wise, resisting temptation and avoiding much trouble.
In just a short while, the Shapeshifters had taken over the Divine Alliance, driven away Zeus, and then both Odin and Uranus had also fled, leaving only a group of confused priests behind.
What a mess this was turning out to be.
