I'm not just human!

Xia Fa felt a chill in his heart. A fifth-generation descendant of an Outer God... he was probably already a ruler at the very beginning.

No wonder he gave him a similar feeling to Patriarch Osius, but seemed to be much weaker than Patriarch Osius.

It seems that the gap between the rulers is also very large.

However, he has never seen other rulers up close. He can only wait and see if he has the opportunity to meet His Majesty the Emperor or the head of the Augustus family before making a comparison.

At this moment, the thousand-meter-tall mist-like figure spoke, its voice ethereal and distant, yet rough and ancient, as if it came from the primordial starry sky:

"Distinguished guests, welcome to our Fog People's Fog Carnival."

"This is the 5997th Fog Carnival we have held since our ancestors fell, which is quite remarkable."

"And this time, the way we've chosen to celebrate is—the land of the gods in the desert."

The moment the words left his mouth, Xia Fa clearly saw that both Prince Ariman and Lieutenant General Bedivere shuddered violently, their faces suddenly bursting with extreme joy!

This seems to be incredibly good news for the two demigods!

A brief silence fell over the circular stands of the arena, followed by a deafening roar of cheers!

"My God, did I hear that right? The land of gods in the desert?"

Praise the Lord! Praise the silent fog over the earth!

"It's been almost a thousand years, hasn't it? Finally, it's this kind of celebration again!"

"Yes, especially since our Kingdom of Augu is suffering from famine, this is absolutely wonderful news!"

"Lord, protect the warriors who go out into battle and grant them a victorious return!"

"Our planet Dark also needs those divine lands!"

"The Blademen have been fighting amongst themselves for years, don't we need to too?"

"Let's rely on our own abilities. By God's grace, with Lord Mist King as the judge, no one dares to resort to any underhanded tactics."

Xia Fa carefully discerned the excited discussions, even using the wind element abilities from the Ether Source Secret Contract.

He keenly grasped the meaning of the word "famine".

"Could it be that this Fog Carnival... could even solve the famine in the Kingdom of Augu?"

Thinking of the farmers who toiled hard but reaped no harvest, the starving refugees who could be seen everywhere by the roadside, and the poor people who were killed by Pompeii... Xia Fa's gaze narrowed, and his expression became more serious than ever before.

At this moment, the thousand-meter-tall Mist King slightly raised his hand, and the noisy and excited arena suddenly quieted down.

The Mist King's majesty was on full display at this moment.

His weathered and melodious voice rang out once more.

"Esteemed guests who have traveled from afar, it is not that we, the Mist People, are too stingy. It is simply that the remaining power of our ancestors requires a thousand years of accumulation before it can be presented to your kingdom as a gift once again."

"We have no other requests. If we seize the land of the gods, whether we are humans, giants, or blade people, we would be extremely grateful if they would build temples and create statues for our ancestors on this land."

"As for the rules, they are very simple, and I will tell them to all the brave warriors."

"I will use the power of the [Mist Realm], a seal created by the [Nature Monarch] using the remains of our ancestors, to create a real desert region, with lakes, wheat fields, orchards, mines, hunting grounds, and other divine lands."

“Each divine land corresponds to a rank region. There are seven rank regions in total, and each region contains only one divine land.”

"Whoever occupies the divine land in the corresponding area first, the divine land will descend upon the occupier's kingdom in a way that expands ten million times, covering those barren and unusable areas."

"The area of ​​the land of the gods is one acre."

The moment the Mist King finished speaking, Xia Fa's mind jolted.

One acre of divine land, expanded ten million times, descends upon the kingdom of the victors?

It's important to know that the total arable land area of ​​the Augu Kingdom is only about 300 million mu!

If we could seize even a single piece of divine land, especially a wheat field, orchard, or even a hunting ground, the famine in the Kingdom of Augu could be resolved instantly!

One acre of wheat field... can become ten million acres of wheat field, how many loaves of bread would that be?

One acre of orchard... can be transformed into ten million acres of orchard, enough to harvest countless juicy fruits, brew countless fine wines, and dry countless fruits.

One acre of hunting grounds... can become ten million acres of hunting grounds. How many pheasants, rabbits, deer, wild boars, elephants, and other wild animals can be hunted? How much meat can be harvested, and how many clothes can be made from the fur?

Xia Fa was increasingly shaken as he thought about it, and he truly felt how precious this opportunity was.

He immediately understood why even a high-ranking figure like Prince Ariman would be so excited and lose his composure when he heard that the Fog Carnival had chosen "the land of the gods in the desert" as its mode of celebration.

Let alone Prince Ariman, Xiafa suspected that even His Majesty the Emperor would be overjoyed if he heard this.

At the same time, Xia Fa also realized that the gods' power was supreme and unfathomable.

If the power of a single Outer God, especially one who has already fallen, left behind in the sealed artifact can achieve such an effect, then what about the power of the Nine Great Gods?

"Humans, giants, and blade-wielders, please send your respective warriors of the fungus, insect, eagle, wolf, elephant, whale, or demigod rank to the center of the arena."

"By the way, if any warrior successfully occupies the divine land of the corresponding rank region, then they can go to the region of higher rank to support their kin, but they cannot go to the region of lower rank. Please remember that."

"Alright, I'll make the announcement."

"This year's Fog Carnival..."

"Let's begin!"

Chapter 110 Desert, Desert!

Chaphat stood in the center of the ancient Roman-style arena.

The circular stands were packed with people from all directions.

Humans, giants, blademen… The shouts of the audience echoed from afar, mingling with the scents of women's perfume, the aroma of popcorn, and even the metallic smell of spittle flying everywhere.

Beside him stood the petite and quiet Princess Victoria, along with other human warriors of different ranks whom he had seen before.

In two directions not far from him, giants over three meters tall and blade-wielding beings with long, narrow blades on their hands and feet also formed their own teams, waiting for the start of the "God's Land in the Desert" carnival.

Xia Fa noticed that although most of the giants were three meters tall, there was one that was five meters tall.

The same goes for the Blade People. Among the many Blade People, there is one whose long, narrow blade, which replaces his hands and feet, is actually engraved with golden mandala patterns, exuding a dangerous aura.

He guessed that the five-meter-tall giant and the blade-wielding man with golden patterns were, like Princess Victoria, outside helpers they had brought in.

The other giants and blademen, like the humans who went to war, came from small parts of their respective planets.

The moment the three groups of people stood in line, a thick, almost viscous fog instantly spread out, completely covering the entire circular gravel field.

But almost immediately, the fog dissipated.

The next moment, many spectators in the circular stands, who were ordinary people and ordinary demi-humans, widened their eyes as if they had witnessed a miracle.

What appeared to be in the center of the Roman-style arena was no longer the circular gravel field, but a... miniature world!

Indeed, it was as if divine power had created a small world and brought it to life. The edges of the small world had obvious ripples, like water, which separated it from the real world.

This little world is extremely large and vast, containing an endless, scorching desert.

A scorching sun hung over the desert, as if it wanted to bake all the creatures in the desert dry.

Viewers clearly noticed that the desert was divided into seven areas, which were pieced together like a honeycomb, with each area separated by a transparent barrier that stretched across the sky.

Even so, each individual area still gives the impression of being so vast that it seems to have no boundaries.

The view was filled with yellow sand and a few scattered cacti. Spiders with yellow and black patterns crawled across the cacti, and occasionally an iguana carrying a small insect would dart by near the base of the cactus.

Within each desert region, there is a randomly located "land of the gods" with an area of ​​only one acre.

The seven regions correspond to the seven divine lands.

Fungus, insect, eagle, wolf, elephant, whale, demigod, correspond to lake, oil field, mine, orchard, potato field, wheat field, and hunting ground, respectively.

Each desert region covers an area of ​​nearly one million square kilometers, but a single mu (unit of land area) of divine land is only about 670 square meters, which shows how difficult it is to find divine land.

But the more this happens, the more excited, tense, and thrilled the audience becomes.

Whether it's because of the impending battle, or because the warriors will soon be able to bring back the divine land, which can be expanded ten million times, for their respective planets and peoples.

……

Xia Fa took a step, his foot landing on the scorching sand, and a shiny black scorpion scurried past his feet.

Even though he was wearing brown buffalo leather boots, he could still feel the scorching heat of the sand through the soles of his shoes.

"I am fighting on behalf of humanity's insect-level superhumans, and the insect-level region corresponds to... an oil field."

In this world, Xia Fa is unclear about the situation of demi-humans, but at least humanity has shown a trend towards large-scale industrialization.

The internal combustion engine in a car is the best example.

If we could find that one acre of oil field and turn it into ten million acres of oil field, and bring it to the Kingdom of Augu... at first glance, it seems useless, after all, the Kingdom of Augu is not short of oil right now.

But upon closer reflection, it is a matter that will last for thousands of generations.

Of course, as the saying goes, distant water cannot quench immediate thirst, and full-scale industrialization is still too far away. Therefore, Xiafa's main target is the four sacred lands: orchards, potato fields, wheat fields, and hunting grounds.

The hunting grounds involve a struggle between demigods, and Xia Fa understands that he most likely cannot get involved.

However, depending on the time, you must manage to secure at least one of the orchards, potato fields, or wheat fields.

Therefore, his plan was very clear.

First, take control of the God's Land in your own insect-level region as quickly as possible, which is that one acre of oil field. Then, immediately go and support the humans in other rank regions!

Anyway, I can easily crush anyone below the demigod level, whether they are giants or blademen. In this situation, I must at least reclaim a piece of divine land for humanity to solve the famine.

Ten million mu... even if it's just orchards, that could temporarily alleviate the immediate crisis, and if it's potato fields and wheat fields, it could potentially solve this famine completely!

With that in mind, Xia Fa immediately began to determine the direction.

This is, after all, the Fog Carnival. The purpose is to celebrate. Nobody wants to see any hardship in the wilderness. The Fog People hold the Fog Carnival not to torment the humans and demi-humans who participate in the festival.

Therefore, Xia Fa clearly sensed that as soon as he arrived in this desert, his spiritual intuition became particularly strong, and he was guided in some way, pointing him in a certain direction.

Without a doubt, that is the location of the God's Land in the Insect-level region!

He wiped his body with one palm, and a light blue breeze swept over him, making him feel much lighter.

Not wanting to waste any time, Xia Fa immediately started running towards the northwest of the desert.

Fortunately, he signed the Ether Source Pact, so he was not afraid of dehydration due to the desert heat and could replenish his own water at any time.

In fact, tiny droplets of water were constantly forming in his mouth, moistening his throat.
