A different world game? A different world game!

The scorched wasteland caught its breath during the brief ceasefire between the two gods.

A murky, dark red sky hung low, as if soaked in congealed blood, eternally overlooking this land that had been repeatedly ravaged.

On the scorched, cracked earth, countless broken, enormous skeletons were scattered.

They were once unimaginable behemoths of the abyss, but now only jagged broken bones remain, as fragile as withered branches in the aftermath of the divine war, crushed into even finer powder, mixed with sulfur dust and covering the ground.

The ground was covered with bottomless cracks, and the scorching red lava, like the earth's resentful blood, surged and churned in the fissures, making a muffled gurgling sound and rising thick smoke with a pungent sulfur smell.

The air was thick with the smells of burnt, sulfur, the sweet, pungent smell of demonic blood, and ozone from a space torn apart, so dense it was suffocating.

The space itself was extremely unstable, with tiny black cracks flashing by like lightning from time to time. These were wounds that had not yet fully healed, emanating a chilling void that made one's heart tremble.

The lingering aura of corruption from the Fallen Abyss Messenger, like viscous ink, stained the luster of the lava, turning the scorched earth in some areas a sickly purplish-black, faintly exuding a nauseating sense of decay.

This utterly ravaged land silently testifies to the terror of divine power and the cruelty of the abyss battlefield.

The Abyss Messenger looked at Kana, who had done nothing, and after he stopped, Kana just floated quietly in the air.

The three silver alchemical puppets he controlled were also arranged in a triangular formation, floating around him in a protective posture.

However, the movements were clearly aggressive, as if the Fallen Messenger wanted to leave.

Then the three alchemical puppets will launch an attack without hesitation to hold the opponent back.

The consciousness is already very clear, just like in countless previous wars.

The two sides are god-level beings, fighting each other and restraining one another. However, for the gods on the side of order, they are generally the main restraining force.

As for these chaotic evil gods in the abyss, they originally had no intention of restraining them.

The demons under his command died, and that was that; they were wiped out on a large scale by the gods, and that was that.

However, they are also burdened by the will of the abyss, and under its demands, they have no choice but to take action.

At the very least, we cannot allow beings on the side of order to run rampant and excessively purge demons.

But things are different now. The Abyss Messenger has clearly sensed the changes in the situation on the entire battlefield, and the allied forces on the side of order are advancing like a whirlwind.

They had already reached the ninth watchtower, effectively eliminating the demons' advantages one by one.

With the demons at a disadvantage, they don't need to care about the demons anymore. They can just charge into the ranks of the Order and fight it out. No matter what they do, they will come out ahead.

However, Kana wouldn't allow it, so he could only float like that, and he had no intention of fighting anymore, since the Fallen Abyss Messenger was just a complete slacker.

He was never suited for direct combat, as can be seen from his name and the power of his rules, which is a power that gradually influences gods and life.

"You saviors are really overestimating yourselves, especially you. I know you, Kana, your world is being eroded by the void."

At a time like this, it's truly incomprehensible that you would lead your kin into the abyss.

I can roughly understand that you might be trying to take something from the abyss in order to make your world able to withstand the devouring of the void.

But I have to tell you, it's useless.

The void's devouring is inevitable; even if you possess the name of a savior, you cannot lead your world toward hope.

Or are you actually trying to invade the Abyss, making yourself and your people part of it, creating an independent Abyssal race?

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Abyss Messenger kept talking, both trying to influence Kana's mindset and satisfying his own curiosity.

Who says gods aren't curious?
He has an extremely strong sense of curiosity.

After all, that world has now been invaded by the void. Although only the tentacles have invaded, in the eyes of the gods, it is almost as if they have already started eating with knives and forks.

If we approach rashly at this time, we might be seen as an enemy by the Void, and if they send out a god-level Void creature, it would be a loss.

Therefore, many gods knew about this situation, but they could not understand the details.

At this very moment, the god Kana, who was lifted up by that world and was known as the Savior, was surprisingly active in the abyss.

In particular, the fact that the other party has the name of a savior does not mean that having the name of a savior can lead the world to escape the void.

But if it's associated with a savior, the chances are much higher.

That's why he's concerned about what Cana is planning to do in the Abyss.

Although he spoke of letting Kana fall into the abyss and become an independent race of the abyss, this was unrealistic for a god who held the title of savior.

Could it be that they intend to directly sever a layer of abyss space, drag it out of the abyss, and create a new world?

After all, each layer of the abyss is a former world that was invaded by the abyss and dragged into the body to become a part of it.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many Avengers.

Is there a reverse segmentation method?
Of course they exist, but cases are extremely rare and can only be described as isolated incidents.

There are only three successful cases.

One of them was a Titan god, and the other party only tested it out and only did it once.

The fact that it was done only once shows that the consequences of such behavior outweigh the benefits.

The other two instances, though from different deities, were strongly related to their power.

One of them, while engaging in such a robbery, became a mere puppet of the rules due to the excessive outburst and erosion of the rules.

The separated abyss layer did indeed become a world again, but because that god became a puppet of the rules, it became a purely rule-based area.

It became a place even worse than the abyss, a place only gods or legends who needed to comprehend the relevant rules could go.

Therefore, there is only one successful case using proper and reasonable methods.

That is, the very first one.

The two subsequent successful cases demonstrate that the initial vulnerability had already been patched.

Logically speaking, there's nothing to worry about.

But I've never seen Canna's rules before.

There are countless rules in the astral realm, and there are truly none that I haven't seen.

It's not that the gods are arrogant or boastful; if you were a newly born god, a being with only weak divine power...

That's understandable, after all, you've only just become a god and don't yet have a complete and detailed understanding of the rules and structure of the entire astral plane.

However, once one reaches the level of a lesser deity, it becomes impossible for them not to understand all the rules of the world.

This is not a difficult thing for the gods; understanding almost all the rules is also advantageous to them.

But I've never seen one before. That's truly rare.

This represents the creation of something from nothing.

Although protected by the astral plane, they cannot explore, plunder, or use underhanded tactics to target it.

But it shouldn't be a problem to take a look, right?
It wouldn't hurt to find out what the rules for new students are all about, would it?

For example, he had studied the Abyss Messenger in detail. Although he was a scoundrel, he was still very serious about things that were beneficial to him.

He often hid in the shadows to observe the Night's Watch's battles and to observe the environmental changes around Bloodpit Fortress.

He roughly understood that the rules for data processing should be composed of some kind of hybrid rules, and that they should be the kind of very versatile basic rules.

It can nest many rules on top of it, and they can all work.

This was already evident in the battle just now.

Regardless of his words or the attacks from the environment, they would all be deconstructed and analyzed within that peculiar chain of runes.

The ultimate order emanating from those rules was blindingly glaring to the chaotic life forms.

This extreme order has resulted in Kana's current state, beneath his divine body, being cold and like a puppet of rules.

There is no good, no evil, just pure order and rules.

Rules related to rationality, numbers, arithmetic, and structure.

Very complicated.

Cana responded with a cold attitude to all the questions and attempts at communication from the abyss god before him.

He is now in a divine body, his emotions are suppressed, and complete rationality prevails.

Of course, having been a god for some time now, he was already used to this state and knew how to adjust.

Throughout the entire battle, he remained in a passive defensive posture because he needed to use data analysis to thoroughly analyze the power of the Fallen Abyss Messenger in front of him.

Understand the power of this fallen messenger's rules, and the changes and effects that its rules can cause.

The situation was better than he had expected.

His opponent's power was naturally countered by his, even though the opponent's divine power was a level higher than his.

But this at least means that when Kana is fighting his opponent, he doesn't need to consider the pressure he would face during a long battle.

If he and his opponent were of equal rank, then without a doubt, the Fallen Abyss Messenger would be completely overwhelmed and powerless to fight back.

But at this moment, he was also watching the battle of the gods on the other side through his clone.

That demon over there is more troublesome; it's pure violence. Kana's datafication doesn't have much effect on it; it can only strengthen his physical defense and reduce the damage he suffers from attacks.

In this brutal clash of rules, Kana's data-driven rules play almost no significant role.

That evil god is not someone I can deal with myself.

We have gained some understanding of the power of gods, and the objective of this battle has been basically achieved.

This war cleansed out a large number of demons.

Although the demons will soon be replaced, this time it has greatly boosted our morale.

The situation is almost settled.

……

On the main battlefield, the combined forces of Blood Pit Fortress and Blood Battle Fortress, carrying the overwhelming ferocity of having captured eleven demon outposts, spread like wildfire.

Finally, they reached the twelfth and last target watchtower in the plan.

This outpost was larger and teeming with more demons. Built against several twisted, giant obsidian pillars, it resembled an ugly, malignant tumor rooted in the filthy earth, spewing acid and spears in a futile resistance.

However, the allied forces did not launch a strong offensive as they had before.

Lelia's crimson hair danced wildly in the abyssal winds as she stood on a makeshift command platform, her gaze sharp as a knife, issuing the final command via data link.

"Target: Twelfth Watchtower! 'Sunburner', prepare!"

The command was transmitted instantly.

In the sky, a gracefully circling sky dragon let out a clear and melodious roar. In its enormous claws was a thing that had been secretly transported there by the Night Watch engineers.

A giant metal sphere with a rough and even somewhat crude design was held high.

The sphere's surface was engraved with intricate alchemical runes and was now shimmering with an unstable, blazing white light—this was the Night's Watch's latest experimental strategic weapon, the "Sunburner."

It requires a sufficiently powerful physical impact to fully unleash the destructive energy contained within it.

The Sky Dragon flapped its wings, its body suddenly rising to its maximum height, and then swooped down!

Hundreds of meters above the watchtower, she used the overwhelming power of a legendary dragon to hurl the "Sunburner" like a stone at the watchtower's core area!
boom--! ! !
It wasn't the sound of an impact, but a terrifying roar like the beginning of time!
The moment "Sunburner" touched the top of the watchtower, it did not simply shatter, but was completely "smashed" open by the legendary power, unleashing a violent alchemical reaction within.

A sphere of indescribable, blazing white light suddenly expanded, its brightness instantly surpassing the eternally dark, blood-red sky of the abyss, as if a miniature sun had been forcibly ignited on the abyss's land.

Destructive light and heat spread wildly in all directions in a spherical shape, engulfing everything.

Those seemingly indestructible obsidian pillars melted and vaporized like candles in the face of absolute light and heat.

The demons that roamed on it, whether they were berserker demons, freak demons, or horned demon overlords, didn't even have time to scream before they turned to ashes in the bright light.

The sturdy watchtower was flattened like a sandcastle, followed by a violent shockwave that, like an invisible giant's hammer, completely plundered and blew up everything within hundreds of meters of the blast site—building debris, demons, and even scorched earth.

A colossal lava pit formed on the spot, its edges churning with newly formed, even hotter magma.

After the cataclysmic explosion, there was a deathly silence, broken only by the gurgling sound of churning lava and the muffled echoes of the distant divine battle.

The blinding white light slowly dissipated, leaving behind a shocking crater of destruction, still flowing with lava, marking the complete annihilation of the twelfth demon outpost.

In the Night Watchers' data chain, countless key pieces of information about the "Sunburner's" explosive power, range, and energy dissipation are being recorded and transmitted at high speed.

Target cleared!

Leilia's voice rang out again, cold and decisive, showing no lingering attachment to the victory before her.

"All troops, listen to my command! Retreat in an orderly manner, providing alternating cover as planned!"

"Abandon all occupied territories and destroy all temporary fortifications and outpost ruins along the way that could be used by demons!" (End of Chapter)
