Dragon Tribulation of All Realms

Chapter 392 The Chess Game Part Four

Wu Chen and his subordinates had all made an agreement. The content of this agreement was that they would serve Wu Chen until he stopped shortchanging them.

This is undoubtedly a delegation. And since a delegation has been made, it must be fulfilled.

The Origin Theory had already taken effect; Wu Chen's divine authority easily crushed Orochi's mind and body. Even the more powerful first-level god Quel'Thuzad couldn't contend with him, who was now even weaker, so Orochi, sealed by the mere second-level god Amaterasu, was naturally even easier to defeat.

The will of Yuqian Fenghua thus surged from the body of the Yamata no Orochi that had devoured her as a sacrifice. Before she even had time to learn how to launch an attack on such a battlefield, her self-awareness, driven by the Origin Theory, had already taken over this divine beast's body.

The shape-shifting spell was suddenly activated, and silver light flowed forth. The giant serpent slumbering beneath the earth contracted once more, coalescing into the form of the priestess, Yuqian Fenghua. Wuchen then took her hand, reappearing before the group from the Priestess's Organization.

The serpent was dead, and the priestesses sensed it in that instant.

They knew it, but they were still filled with disbelief at this established reality.

"How...how did you do that...?"

The priestess, Nagato, instinctively wanted to ask him a question, but quickly suppressed her emotions with reason. She bowed respectfully before Wu Chen, her forehead touching the ground. In her mind, Wu Chen was already an incarnation of a deity.

"The Yamatai Shrine Maidens' Agency will serve you, Lady Shrine Maiden. What do you need us to do for you?"

"Restore their reputation and deal with the issue of the Tianzhi Sect."

"Your will."

The tide of battle turned once again. With the voice of the Shrine Maiden Organization, the entire Jepan land was filled with voices defending Takeda. It was clear that the shrine maidens, skilled in, or rather, having essentially monopolized, healing arts, wielded far more influence than the Tenshi Cult, whose primary occupation was fighting monsters and whose secondary occupation was providing places for important figures to ordain. Soon, the chaotic voices in the territory vanished without a trace.

[A very good move.]

On the other side of the chessboard, or rather, the card game, the white whale's phantom maliciously praised Wu Chen's strategy for seizing the Shrine Maiden's Agency. Its limited vision prevented it from seeing what Wu Chen was doing deep within the agency. After all, under normal circumstances, subduing the Shrine Maiden's Agency's territory wouldn't require dealing with the giant serpent.

But what should you do next?

It proudly showed Wu Chen the lower left corner of Jepan. There, a massive energy tide was rapidly gathering.

The Demon King, Miki Lai, was born.

After that, the monsters marched at breakneck speed. One prosperous city after another fell, and one fertile land after another was swallowed up. The victorious monsters naturally showed no mercy to the inhabitants of the land. Thus, amidst countless flowing blood and the wails of the dying, the entire western district of Jepan fell into the hands of the monster Shimazu.

First came the Mori, then Akashi and Tanegashima. The Tenshi Cult was also easily conquered. The Demon Queen's power was invincible; no one or nothing could withstand a single blow from her. And naturally, the numerous weaker factions centered around the Oda clan united in fear of the Demon Queen's power. While Wu Chen was busy dealing with potential threats from the Hojo and the One-Eyed School in his rear, they futilely tried to resist the Demon Queen's advance.

Failure is to be expected.

Even before the battle, half of the allied forces secretly contacted the Demon King's army, hoping to gain permission to submit to the Demon King's army by betraying other forces. And naturally, the demons agreed to all the traitors, allowing them to launch a coordinated attack on the eve of the war.

The allied forces were thus routed in less time than they had taken to form. In the very first battle, half of the tens of thousands of soldiers perished, yet even so, the traitors received no reward. This was because, within Mizuki's demonic army, the lives of the weak were inherently easily lost. The Demon King could not resist the demonic blood and soul.

Even the kindest individual quickly develops a violent heart after becoming a demon king. All the prisoners and surrendered followers in that battle died only after enduring prolonged torture. The terrified survivors had no choice but to rush to the areas controlled by the Takeda forces as quickly as possible, offering various bargaining chips, hoping to gain the ability to survive in the chaos of war.

Jepan's territory was thus divided in two. Both sides agreed to temporarily cease hostilities and make final preparations for the upcoming war. When the armies of both sides appeared simultaneously on opposite sides of the horizon, Kyoto, chosen as the battlefield, was plunged into fear and trembling.

The rulers here have not yet sided with either side.

The managers here still possess a dying kind of confidence, or rather, willpower.

However, when two massive armies launched their attack simultaneously, unleashing a barrage of firepower upon this sole city, the city's rulers revealed their true colors in utter panic.

"I surrender! Let me go! Spare my life!"

No one paid him any attention, which gave the chubby fellow the opportunity to sneak away from the edge of the battlefield. Unfortunately, before he could escape, he encountered a formidable enemy he could never defeat.

He blocked the path of the Demon King Miki.

He was forced to take the brunt of Demon King Miki's shockwave attack—he managed to let out a scream, which was slightly better than the demons who melted instantly upon eating him. But in any case, it couldn't change the fact that he and his confidants would be vaporized together by the black shockwave released by Demon King Miki.

Everything was destroyed.

Meanwhile, the white whale phantom sitting opposite Wu Chen was smug and self-satisfied.

This is my trump card. Now, can you still win?

It was a little too soon to be happy.

Its smile quickly came to a halt with the attack of Orochi: Jade Token Wind Flower. The seemingly ordinary priestess had actually taken the brunt of a destructive shockwave that only a Demon King could unleash. And the next moment, a demon-slaying arrow shot from the priestess's longbow caused the Demon King's blood to fall to the ground.

The beluga whale stared in disbelief at everything that was happening before its eyes.

It simply cannot accept such a final outcome.

Lacking practical combat experience, Miki Kurimi attacked haphazardly after being injured, but was completely outmatched by the shrine maiden's skills. Just as she was about to be completely defeated, the phantom of the white whale suddenly slammed its fist on the table and stood up.

"You cheated!" it shouted.

I do not acknowledge your victory, and I do not accept the outcome of this match!

The words Wu Chen most wanted to hear finally reached his ears.
