Hawks from the Land of Light are calling me a dove and an undercover agent in the chat group.

"Article 62, Paragraph 15 of the Valhalla Constitution contains a special provision: a one-on-one contest between the gods and humans, that is, a duel!"

The final battle between the gods and humanity is a contest where representatives from both sides compete in one-on-one duels, with the first side to achieve seven wins emerging victorious.

Humanity is destined for extinction the moment it accumulates seven defeats; conversely, if humanity triumphs, it will be allowed to live for another thousand years.

However, this law has never been mentioned or used in the seven million years since the birth of mankind, because it is absolutely impossible for mankind to defeat the gods!

Even the weakest god, when equipped with their own divine artifact, cannot harm the gods, except for Adam, the first human created by the gods, who is essentially comparable to a demigod and possesses a certain degree of divine power.

Whether or not one possesses divine power is a fundamental difference.

However, even if it is impossible for humans to defeat the gods, the Valkyrie Brunhilde deliberately brought up this law at this time, and her intention was already obvious.

Regardless of what she says or how much face she gives to the gods, in practice, she is purely on the side of humanity, striving for their survival.

Although humans cannot defeat the gods, if the thirteen Valkyries were to transform into divine artifacts, allowing humans to fight with these artifacts and divine power, then the odds of victory would never be zero. This was the cheating method Brunhilde devised to increase the chances of winning.

Conversely, if such a one-on-one battle were not held, and the gods unleashed their immense power, they could directly cause the entire world to be submerged by a great flood, or the world to enter an ice age.

So no matter how powerful the heroes among humans are, they can only be powerless to do anything about it.

Gods are gods because, in addition to their superior combat power that surpasses that of humans, they also possess various other area-of-effect (AOE) abilities.

Against those area-of-effect attacks, all of humanity's heroes, all of humanity's strongest combined, are helpless.

Because humans are ultimately just humans. No matter how powerful they are, they can only protect one other person. They don't have any other special abilities. Perhaps they are not afraid of ice ages and great floods, but they are equally unable to protect other humans.

So once things develop that way, the extinction of humanity will be inevitable.

Only one-on-one matches are allowed to have even the slightest chance of survival!

"Ha, I thought you were going to say something. As a Valkyrie, you couldn't possibly not know that humans are no match for gods!"

"Competing is a waste of time!"

"That's right, it can't even be called a game!"

Why should we deliberately become adversaries of humans?

"That's so stupid!"

Faced with the pre-existing constitution proposed by the Valkyrie Brunhilde, all the gods present showed extreme disdain, utterly dismissive of it.

They utterly despise and look down on humans, believing that engaging in one-on-one competitions with humans would lower their own standards and status.

Judging from this, their wishful thinking is definitely going to fall apart!

But the Valkyrie Brunhilde hadn't been unprepared for the gods' reaction. She chuckled and said with a smirk, "So, the gods mean that humanity is doomed, and... they want to avoid a direct confrontation with humanity, is that right?"

The gods were fearful and worried that they would be defeated by humans, so they wanted to avoid fighting with humans and tried to destroy them by means of a great flood or an ice age.

This was exactly what the Valkyrie Brunhilde meant.

And she made no attempt to hide it, conveying it directly; this obvious provocation was far too blatant.

However, the Valkyrie Brunhilde clearly did not expect that her methods could deceive the gods.

After all, although most of the gods are fools, there are some who are exceptionally wise among them. Although they are few, there just happened to be such gods present, and more than one of them.

So instead of trying to think you can fool the gods, why not be open and direct, and see if the other party is willing to take the bait?

"What did you say?!"

"You shameless wretch who dares to defy the gods!"

"A demigod dares to stand on the side of humanity and defy the gods, what audacity!"

"How dare you say such a thing, Brunhilde! I will kill you, I will kill all thirteen sisters!"

"Arrogant and utterly foolish!"

"Aaaaaaaaaaa!"

Although they are supposed to be gods, they are far more prone to rage than humans.

The entire conference hall was instantly filled with an overwhelming roar of bloodlust, and the seat of the Triad God Shiva was even shattered as it was removed by the power of Shiva's wrath.

Faced with Brunhilde's provocation, Zeus, the strongest of the gods, dressed in white and with a white beard, chuckled and said, "I see, I see. The legend of the fairy realm, is that it? This suggestion is quite interesting!"

"Thank you for bringing that up, it's very interesting, hehe... So, what do you all think? Wouldn't you like to witness the long-awaited thunderous wrath of the gods, overwhelming violence!"

"Well then, everyone, let's have a contest between the gods and humans to see who's superior!"

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh————

The instant Zeus slammed his hand on the table, the cheers of the gods resounded throughout the entire council hall, echoing endlessly.

After the Valkyrie Brunhilde posted those provocative and sarcastic remarks, the gods' attitudes changed. Even though they still completely looked down on humanity, they had decided to fight and engage in one-on-one battles.

They will not allow their authority to be challenged; if they do not retaliate against such challenges, it would be tantamount to being undermined.

We must open the legend of the fairy realm to proclaim the majesty of the gods before all humanity, so that people and demigods may know that the gods not only possess the power to destroy the world, but also, even in pure melee combat, the gods are beings who crush humanity and transcend all dimensions.

Invincible, invincible, invincible!

We are determined to thoroughly inscribe the words "invincible," "unstoppable," and "unchallengeable" onto everything outside of the gods!

Zeus was one of the very few who didn't roar. He chuckled and pointed at Brunhilde: "Brunhilde, you will choose the representative of mankind. You want to help mankind, don't you? After all, you were once a mortal, a tragic demigod, a Valkyrie, right?"

"..."

The Valkyrie Brunhilde remained silent for a moment, knowing that she had been completely seen through, and returned the salute, saying, "I will choose the strongest one from the seven million years of human history."

Therefore, the challenge is hereby declared!

The Valkyrie Brunhilde, carrying her younger sister, turned and left without looking back, leaving behind a multitude of incredibly mocking glances from the gods in the council hall as she departed.

Valkyrie Brunhilde already had her favorite candidate in mind. She had been planning for this competition for a long time and had naturally figured out who would have the best chance of winning.

Thirteen people representing humanity.

The strongest hero of China, the strongest warrior of mankind, Lü Bu, Lü Fengxian!

Son of the gods, progenitor of mankind, father Adam!

The world's strongest swordsman, the pinnacle of swordsmanship, the unparalleled Sasaki Kojiro!

Human evil, Jack the Ripper!

Raiden, the strongest sumo wrestler!

Tesla, the scientist who represents and symbolizes human technology!

The beginning of a unified civilization that stands at the pinnacle of world civilization: Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng!

The indomitable spirit of the ancient Spartan civilization, Leonidas!

Simo Häyhä, a powerful human marksman!

Another pinnacle of swordsmanship, Sakata Kintoki!

Another pinnacle of swordsmanship: Okita Souji!

And Shakyamuni, who, though a god, is compassionate and stands on the side of humanity, has already privately hinted to her that he will compete as a human player!

Finally, it's a choice between the immortal monk Gregory Rasputin and the ace player Noster Rams.

This lineup has a chance to win!

"call……"

Thinking about this list, I still know that the gods have a greater chance of winning, perhaps even a much greater chance.

Even if humanity wins, the gods might become enraged and overturn the agreement, ultimately unleashing a great flood or an ice age to exterminate humanity.

But in any case, this is the best hand she can play.

With these thoughts in mind, the pessimistic Valkyrie Brunhilde was finally about to return to her room, where she would ponder the tactical arrangements before the battle.

She pushed open the door.

Then, she saw it.

She didn't know when or where it came from, but it sat upright in the base room where she contemplated everything.

A person.

A magnificent, glittering golden giant, clad in golden armor and overflowing with golden spiritual energy!

Volume 1: 527. Do not invade, do not invade, it's a trap!

527. Don't invade, don't invade, it's a trap!

At the same time that Valkyrie Brunhilde met a certain burly, golden-haired man in a distant universe.

On this day, in another well-known, famous, and renowned universe, a regular day was unfolding.

Oh, look, that's the Ultra Universe known to all, a dazzling emerald like a unique treasure. Its size and area were once sixty times that of Earth, but now it has become more than one hundred and twenty times that of Earth.

The distant Land of Light, noble, perfect, and peaceful, was always serene and tranquil, except for the one time it was personally invaded by the terrifying Dark Emperor Empera.

This planet has always been the focal point of the world of light, but in the past, for most people, it was a promised land that could only be admired from afar and not approached.

This place is so dazzling, so brilliant.

That is why outsiders, who are not dazzling enough, not brilliant enough, and not perfect enough, will feel ashamed just by seeing this. They will always think that they are too dark compared to the Ultra race and should not set foot on this planet, lest they tarnish this perfect world of light.

But the turning point of the Ultra Constellation and the Martial Arts Tournament changed everything.

Although the initial intention was to attract the attention of the Aliens of Empera and divert the attention of the Empera Empire's initial intention to start a war, to many other uninformed people, this was the first time in hundreds of thousands of years that the vast and brilliant Kingdom of Light had shown itself off to the outside world.

They don't even flaunt their martial prowess, but rather their near-perfect Ultraman appearance and Ultraman body—something no one would dislike, something that would instantly evoke goodwill and recognition in anyone who sees it, a sign of an excellent and kind person.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with this kind of showing off; in fact, it makes many people's eyes light up, sparkling with excitement, as if they've discovered for the first time that Ultraman can occasionally have these kinds of feelings or actions!

The unattainable, perfect light became more tangible. The new Ultra Constellation appeared in the eyes of others, and the Land of Light was showing its hospitality, announcing and inviting others in the universe to come and visit.

This is why, after the Cosmic Martial Arts Tournament was finalized, the number of aliens heading to the Land of Light suddenly surged, exceeding the previous number by hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of times.

This number swelled to the point of almost bursting the entire Land of Light just before the war with Perpetua of DC. If it weren't for the scientists in the Science and Technology Bureau working together to temporarily expand the area and volume of the Land of Light by more than a thousand times, they would have been unable to accommodate the people who were brought here to be entrusted with their orphans.

The phrase "almost bursting the entire Land of Light" refers to the Land of Light after its area and volume had expanded more than a thousand times.

Afterwards, the most turbulent and epic cosmic war in history, surpassing all other grand scenes, was successfully concluded. However, the powerful figures who returned victorious found, to their dismay, that the little brats were no longer obedient!

These little rascals have all fallen in love with the Land of Light, wanting to live here, grow up here, and go to school here.
