Chapter 917: 917
The Human God System’s God Kingdom, Light Plain, rose in the sky, and two other large shadows rose as well . One was the God of Vagrants, who was dressed in gleaming gold armor and holding a sharp holy sword in his hand . The other was the God of Protection, who was dressed in all black armor and holding a giant shield that was bigger than him .
These two figures were famous Divine Powers within the Human God System . However, their leader, the strongest amongst the human gods, the God of Light, Wuther Rang, did not appear alongside them .
On the other hand, the skies of the Orc God System’s God Kingdom, the “Endless Field” was empty, and no shadow was to be found .
“What are the Orcs doing?
“Do they not intend to send out any Divine Powers?”
“Are the humans planning to cause a watershed? The God of Light is not taking any action . ”
“The Orcs’ supporting troops are absent as well . ”
The on looking gods discussed the matter fervently with each other .
Sui Xiong glanced suspiciously at the two God Kingdoms, which were still slowly approaching each other . His eyes narrowed into slits and some assumptions about the situation came creeping into his head .
He turned to look at the God of War, Wenner, who was similarly staring at the two God Kingdoms .
An undisguised smile was plastered on Wenner’s face, a cruel but joyful smile .
Sui Xiong’s heart lurched, and he could somewhat guess what Wenner’s smile was about . He asked in a low voice, “How… do they plan to fight this war?”
Wenner turned his head and smiled slightly at Sui Xiong .
“I see you’ve guessed it too . ” He was smiling so widely that his eyes had almost disappeared, and he was extremely cheerful . “Well, I might say Lefon is truly the most extraordinary Master God that the Orc God System has seen . I merely gave him a suggestion, but he decided to expand on it . ”
“You’re crazy! I can’t believe you offered him such a suggestion!”
“I’m not crazy; I merely broke down the situation for him,” Wenner replied, smiling . “In this war, if the humans attacked with masses or they matched their respective troops, king for king and soldier for soldier, the Orcs will still be disadvantaged . Since they were seen to be doomed from the start, there was no point in beating around the bush and continue to allow this disadvantage to consume them . ”

“Even so, how could you make such a suggestion?”
“What else would you suggest they do?” Wenner asked in return . “What other method is there other than this for the Orcs to reduce the gap between their race and the humans?”
Sui Xiong furrowed his brows and was speechless .
He of course did not have any other plans in mind as well . If he did, he would not have assumed from the start that the Orcs were doomed to lose .
Even so, he could not bring himself to agree with Wenner’s proposed solution .
It was true that Wenner’s solution would allow the Orcs to weaken the humans to the maximum and allow them to gain an advantage and hope in the process . Furthermore, if the Orcs utilized Wenner’s solution, even if the Orcs lost, the humans would only achieve a weak victory at best, with lots of bloodshed in the process . This outcome would almost be akin to losing for the humans as they would require tens of thousands of years to recuperate after the war ended . Even with such recuperation, it was also highly possible that they would never regain their current state .
As for the Orcs? If they lost, it would be game over for them, and they would not even get to escape even if they wanted to .
“You should not have suggested this to them . ” The God of Justice, Yorgaardman, understood what was going on as well in the conversation between Sui Xiong and Wenner . He furrowed his brow and said, “This idea will cause many unnecessary deaths . ”
“There will always be death in war!” God of War laughed uproariously . “Furthermore, from my point of view, the bigger the scale of the war and the more intense it gets, the bigger its impact on this world and the more I stand to gain! Don’t forget, I am the God of War!”
Towards such a frank and blunt reply, Sui Xiong and Yorgaardman were rather speechless .
To the gods, their values were all centered around their priesthood . The perspective of their priesthood was their personal perspective as well . Wenner choosing to take a step back and observe the situation rather than participating directly in the battle was already giving Sui Xiong and Yorgaardman some face . To expect him to remain truly neutral and not offer any assistance to either side was asking for too much .

Just at this moment, Sui Xiong had another idea in his mind and asked, “Previously when you trained the new troops with Augmentin, did you also do so under the invitation of the human gods?”
“You’re overthinking . ” Wenner smiled and shook his head . “I would not do that behind your back . Although I can’t say that I’m fully innocent, why would I do such things and lie to my master? I’m more trustworthy than that . ”
It was only after Wenner replied that Sui Xiong could relax slightly . However, Wenner continued speaking, “Well, perhaps our original methods were within the God of Light’s plans, though . ”
Sui Xiong was shocked . “What does that mean?”
“Everyone is familiar with my style . It’s not hard to guess how my reaction was after meeting the new human troops,” Wenner said, smiling .
Sui Xiong furrowed his brows and glanced at the Human God System’s God Kingdom .
“The God of Light… what exactly does he plan to do?”
“Whatever that fellow Wuther wants to do doesn’t really matter . ” Yorgaardman sighed . “What’s most important now is whether he managed to guess that the Orcs will use such a strategy and whether he has any counter-strategies against it . ”
As he spoke, the distance between the two God Kingdoms became extremely small .
The Human God System’s God Kingdom had gradually slowed down, and it seemed like it was about to slow down and expand the frontier . This was a common strategy used in wars between gods where both God Kingdoms would keep a certain distance apart and continually send out people to fight . This method was most traditional in the history of divine wars and could last for a few years .
Of course, at the same time, both sides would continually send out elite troops as well . Under the leadership of Divine Powers, they would directly attack the enemy’s God Kingdom . There was of course some risk involved in this, but as long as they could succeed, this would determine the outcome of the war . The victor would also be able to gain a new God Kingdom to make theirs more complete . After all, with greater risk came greater benefits .
The human gods were acting perfectly rationally and traditionally as expected .
However, this time, they were against a completely irrational and brazenly untraditional opponent .
Seeing as the distance between the two God Kingdoms was decreasing, the Human God System’s God Kingdom had already stopped in its tracks . Beams of divine light were constantly pouring forward from it, and it was clearly expanding its layers of defense and building their war frontier . By right, the Orcs should be doing the same and building up infrastructure of their own . However, the Orcs did not do so, and instead they emitted a blinding light instead .
This beam of light was extremely blinding and strong . Within a second, everyone could sense the aura of tens of mid-level powers and five to six Divine Powers rising up in the Orcs’ God Kingdom .
As for the power of the low-level and weak Divine Powers as well as that of the demigods and legendary peak masters, well, one could not even begin to calculate it all .
With so much power amassed together, the Orcs’ God Kingdom had a huge explosion and increased its speed .
At this point, the two God Kingdoms were already extremely near to each other . With the acceleration of the Orcs’ God Kingdom, they were put even closer to each other, and it seemed like they were seconds away from colliding .
“My goodness!”
“What are they doing?”
“Is Lefon crazy!?”
“I’m about to have a heart attack…”
“I really give it to them!”
Even the gods who had previously been unaware of the Orc gods’ intentions were not clear on what the Orc gods intended to do . They were throwing caution to the wind and had decided to directly skip to the last step of the battle, which was to use their God Kingdom and collide with the humans’ God Kingdom!

Things such as growing stronger, becoming smarter, feeling more agile, became possible within short periods of time from that point onwards. The one who regretted his weak healing abilities for years began to chase after the magic powers that could turn reason and sense upside down while keeping his goal, this duty to the wrongs he committed.

When the person who had everything found a path to desire for more, not fearing the consequences and the obstacles, he also began to walk onwards to a new life. And among them, the one who walked aimlessly but also never stepped down on the choices he made along the way, was the one who couldn’t be ignored nor disrespected by anyone. The “Player” system that they all obtained, and which granted them several abilities, knowledge and directions, was also the beginning of an entire new era in this world where monsters, magic and technology, were already common and wide-spread. There’s not a single hero, but after committing mistakes after mistakes, learning from the painful and thorny path that they take, and growing as people with the people that surround them, then someday... there will certainly be saviors.
