The Infinite Dragon God Cannot Find Silence

"Hmm? What should we do? I'm afraid that once we successfully defeat Orpheus, you'll immediately turn your cannons on Apocalypse Beast and me, right?"

"It seems you know very well. Indeed, it would be too dangerous for someone like you to be alive. In this respect, you are exactly the same as the Infinite Dragon God and the Beast of Revelation."

"That's a hurtful way to put it, but it's true, after all, I am 'destructive'."

The boy smiled.

"But it's alright, we can talk about this later. I'll help you with this war, and the conditions are very simple."

"You're so disloyal! You actually want conditions?"

Indra raised one eyebrow.

"It's nothing, it's really simple."

The boy waved his hand.

Then, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"I only need Orpheus."

"Oh?"

"---After all, it's the kind of guy who possesses that kind of power that makes me want to destroy things."

……

……

"A combined force of evil dragons, the beast of revelation, dragon eaters, and the undead legion?"

Sazex rubbed his temples as he flipped through the report in his hand.

Michael's handsome face was almost scrunched up.

The royal beast of Revelation—the beast with seven heads and ten horns, number 666.

The enemy of God in the Bible.

This has suddenly evolved into a situation where both sides in the battle are enemies.

"Lord Sazex, Lord Azazel, are you able to make a decision?"

Seeing the two deep in thought, Michael asked them seriously.

Now is not the time to just watch.

Regardless of whether it's the Infinite Dragon God or the Beast of 666 who wins, they will likely be the victor's next target.

It's better to deal with it now.

Which side should we choose? Or should we fight on both sides together?

"We will invoke the Holy Judgment."

As expected, there was no response. Michael stood up and made a calm announcement.

"We hope you two will make the right choice."

……

……

Above the Mediterranean Sea, in a narrow gap in space, an elegant courtyard floats quietly.

Meanwhile, in the surrounding void, countless white-winged maidens, like angels, were circling and hovering.

Although everyone had a blank expression, the atmosphere was quite peaceful, as if they were completely unaware of the tense atmosphere outside.

"The population throughout Mesopotamia appears to be evacuating in an orderly manner."

"Oh, that's really efficient."

Listening to Valkyrie's report, Norns sighed rather insincerely.

In a war of this scale, relying on crude spatial tricks to isolate civilians, as before, is useless.

Last time, they did not anticipate the large-scale attack by the Skywing race. Otherwise, in fact, the power of all spaces would be meaningless when facing a real Skywing race army.

In reality, trying to evacuate the crowd at this point would be extremely difficult and thankless, and it would be blatantly an attack on their opponents.

It couldn't have been Hades' doing. If it were him, he would probably have turned every creature he encountered along the way into part of his army.

Only angels would do such a thing.

"An angel... Although not a real angel, that rigidity is just as good, no, it's still a bit lacking... After all, there's still an opportunity to take advantage of it. In any case, if those guys don't want to offend the angel as an ally, they'll probably wait until the crowd is evacuated before launching an attack, no, they'll probably do it earlier?"

The opposing camp has the Beast of Revelation, so it doesn't matter whether we offend the angels or not, since we'll be included in the scope of the attack anyway.

So, at most one or two days?

...In truth, her analysis is meaningless; fate will tell the answer.

Norns jumped up from the chair and snapped his fingers.

"Then, let's assemble the army."

Upon hearing this order, Valkyrie's eyes flickered slightly, and she knelt down.

"Command accepted."

Chapter 396 Alliance

In the darkness of Mesopotamia, a vast ancient city sits quietly under the moonlight.

What should have been a bustling tourist destination was now eerily silent, devoid of any human presence or light.

Even creatures of low intelligence seemed to sense the impending danger and dared not approach this seemingly peaceful ancient city.

—Splat.

Suddenly, a flash of light, like lightning, streaked across the outskirts of the ancient city.

Splat, splat, splat ---

Then came more and more lightning bolts, countless bolts of electricity flashing out from the ancient city walls, sweeping across the surroundings. Strange cracks appeared out of thin air, and the buildings that humans had originally built were instantly pulverized.

And just as suddenly as it appeared, all of this came to a halt.

As if nothing had happened, silence returned.

The next moment───

boom!!!

The violent energy transformed into lightning that surged forth from all directions of the ancient city.

As if not satisfied with merely ravaging the vicinity as before, this time the lightning erupted mercilessly, extending outwards like an open barrier, reaching far into the distance.

By this time, the dilapidated ancient city, which resembled ruins, had completely disappeared.

In its place stands a brightly lit, luxurious, and magnificent golden city.

……

……

boom!!!

Lightning struck without warning.

Above the Persian Gulf, turbulent waves surged, violent energy overflowed, and the seawater churned continuously. Even the prosperous cities built by humankind were destroyed and collapsed under the storm.

But in the next moment, everything suddenly calmed down.

A deathly darkness appeared from the very end of the lightning's extension, rapidly eroding the earth in the opposite direction to the previous lightning.

Within seconds, all living things in the vicinity had withered away, and the once vibrant land was now completely black.

In this pitch blackness, a chilling white quietly emerges.

"I never imagined it would be discharged to such a far place."

As Hades watched the vast undead legions emerge from the dark earth, his empty eyes flickered with fire.

The spatial defenses of that place are far stronger than imagined.

The location where the Gate to the Underworld fell was at least 100 kilometers away from the intended location.

"But it's also thanks to you that I was able to find the base point and destroy the spatial illusion of that city by triggering the spatial barrier there."

Cross-legged in the air, Shiva, the god of destruction, laughed with the smugness of a truly innocent and mischievous child.

The opponent's method of hiding an entire city was indeed very clever. In fact, only a few such cases have been discovered over thousands of years—and these were basically all guessed from the strange phenomena in Babylonian mythology and then investigated. None of them were found through genuine 'sense'. In this respect, their ability to 'disguise' is indeed quite outstanding.

However, its own defensive capabilities are not strong.

Once the exact location is known, cracking the code becomes very simple.

However, considering that the opponent's second layer could even push open the entire gate to the underworld by more than 100 kilometers, it is understandable that they do not care about the defense of the illusion technique itself.

For the enemy, as long as they don't directly attack the city and cause damage, they're just a troublesome enemy that can be easily annihilated.

Unfortunately, the entity behind this attack was not something so simple.

Millions of undead soldiers staggered forward.

Thousands upon thousands of bone dragons spread their wings, lifted off the ground with the power of magic, and soared into the sky once more.

Even without any order or discipline, the ground vibrations could still be clearly felt.

And this is only the first wave.

Even more armies are pouring out of the underworld.

It would only be a matter of time before the entire plains of Mesopotamia were completely filled.

This kind of thing shouldn't pose a threat to the Skywing race.

But there's no need to defeat that race.

All we need to do is use this boundless army to storm that seemingly idyllic city and ruthlessly trample and destroy the territory that the Dragon God has been cultivating.

"Are they about to launch an attack? The angels have largely completed the evacuation of civilians, but there must still be quite a few scattered outside, right?"

"Even if there were any, they would have been torn to shreds in the spatial fluctuations just now, right?"
