Chapter 827: Divine Realm Army

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Listening to the messenger’s account, Ji Chen gradually gained the latest understanding of the demon warfare in the Eastern Continent.

Elves and numerous elite legions from various Northern Continent nations had already arrived in the Hogsback Mountains of the Eastern Continent two weeks ago and joined forces with the local Eastern Continent armies.

They had hoped that with the support of thirty elite legions, they could turn the tide of the Eastern Continent’s war, at least slightly improving the dire situation and granting the besieged Eastern Continent armies some breathing room.

However, the arrival of reinforcements did not improve the situation.

Upon seeing the arrival of orderly reinforcements and the increasingly fortified defenses that momentarily held firm, the demons recklessly deployed a new type of soldier.

Terrifying soldiers with beast-like forms suddenly appeared on the battlefield without any warning, dealing heavy blows to the orderly army.

Iva Tullan still vividly remembered the horrifying scene.

From the dark cracks in the purple-black space tearing apart in the sky, soldiers with entirely black beast-like forms emerged, exuding endless evil and malevolence, their crimson eyes gleaming as if they were staring from the void.

Though their numbers were not many, not even reaching ten thousand, this force single-handedly routed the orderly legions, overwhelming them like a landslide. The renowned elite legions all fell before these dark soldiers, defeated and scattered.

“…Those are the Black Beasts.”

Iva Tullan hurriedly asked, “Do you know about these soldiers?”

Ji Chen nodded slightly.

“The Black Beasts are a special army cultivated by the dark gods, containing pure evil power. They can even be used to hunt down weak gods, so it’s normal for you to be unable to defeat them.”

“This…”

Iva Tullan’s expression turned fearful. An army specially cultivated by the dark gods, capable of hunting down gods, was beyond his imagination.

In fact, according to the straightforward words of the Starlight God Nora, the Black Beasts had already surpassed the ordinary ranks of soldiers, no longer belonging to the first six tiers but instead belonging to the most top-tier seventh tier.

The seventh-tier soldiers, also known as the soldiers of the divine realm, referred to armies that could only be cultivated by the divine realms of the gods.

Whether it was the ancient tree guardians of the Elven Empire, the swan knights of the Markus Empire, or the secret soldiers of other major powers, they were at most sixth-tier soldiers. Even the most elite legions were only at the level of the sixth tier. Being attacked by a seventh-tier divine realm army with a vast gap in strength, defeat was inevitable.

“What should we do? The Eastern Continent cannot fall, otherwise, the billions of beings living there will become the prey of the void legions.”

Seeing the anxious messenger, Ji Chen said, “Most divine realm soldiers are only used to counter the enemy’s divine realm soldiers. The fact that the dark gods have assigned the Black Beasts to attack the orderly faction armies in the main world means that they are already restless and want to use ‘unexpected’ forces to help the demons gain a strategic advantage.”

“If I’m not mistaken, the orderly gods will not stand idly by and should soon send divine realm troops to support.”

As Ji Chen predicted.

A divine realm army belonging to the Goddess of Light was slowly crossing the border between the void and the main world.

Great Archangels, War Paladins, High Priests of Light…

Without exception, these soldiers emitted an aura many times more terrifying than sixth-tier soldiers, their expressions cold, merciless, and loyal, just like the divine beings seen by mortals.

After passing through the rules barrier of the main world, they quickly followed the familiar foul smell, tracking it all the way from above the clouds to find the Black Beasts fiercely attacking the orderly camp armies in the Eastern Continent.

Like a well-oiled machine, they instantly split into dozens of small teams and charged forward.

The rampaging Black Beast sensed the arrival of the enemy, turned around, and roared angrily, then turned back to confront them.

The severely battered Orderly Divine Lineage army saw a supremely pure army suddenly launch an attack from behind against these terrifying dark enemies, and they were instantly astonished and cheered.

Because the characteristics of this army were too obvious, Archangels, Radiant Knights… these were all the divine realm armies depicted on the murals of the Light Church, the armies that followed the Goddess of Light to fight against the evil gods and other races!

Out of compassion, the Goddess of Light saw the suffering of her followers and the crisis in the world, prompting her to send divine troops to support them.

The followers and soldiers of the Light Church were the most excited. During these days of demon invasion, they had thought that the gods had abandoned them, no longer listening to their prayers and supplications.

And now all this unrest, worry, and despair were shattered by the visible reality!

The Goddess of Light had always been watching them, but before, she had only been considering their faith and loyalty!

In an instant, these believers had already imagined the consequences, and became even more excited.

In a sense, the fact that the Goddess of Light had been watching them all along was more exciting to them than the arrival of this army from the divine realm to support them.

Soldiers from other kingdoms and factions looked at each other, their minds racing. It turned out that the Goddess of Light was aware of what was happening in the world, so the other orderly divine beings should also know, right?

The Divine Realm army fought fiercely with the Black Beasts. Although their numbers were much fewer than the latter, only half in quantity, their combat power was several levels higher, and their coordination was seamless, causing great damage to the Black Beasts.
