Chapter 1541 - 875: Enjoying It Face-to-Face (Part 2)

But unexpectedly, he survived; he really parried the War Axe!

Despite his arm feeling numb from the immense force; despite Bone Shattering King reacting swiftly with a kick that knocked him to the ground, pressing the gun to his face, ready to execute him... he nonetheless survived.

In the moment before the execution, the mages saved his life. A surge of spiritual energy diverted Bone Shattering King’s gun; another force pulled their swordsmanship champion away from Bone Shattering King’s threat.

Several champions, led by Youwin and Martins, launched an assault, leaving Bone Shattering King no time to spare.

Bone Shattering King was indeed finished.

And as this happened, in the Subspace, the two Green-skinned Gods grew increasingly furious.

Gu Hang believed this was the fury of incompetence.

Anyway, despite being injured, he repeatedly blocked the power projected from the cosmic directions.

The angrier Mr. Mao got, the more assured Gu Hang felt.

Until Gu Hang heard the two of them simultaneously let out a sorrowful, earth-shattering howl.

He could sense the great anguish and anger from these two deities, while Gu Hang himself was overwhelmed with joy—did it succeed?

He glanced into the real universe, only to be shocked again.

He saw Bone Shattering King’s head had been chopped off and was rolling nearby, as a champion wielded a Thermic Sprayer, directly roasting it, determined to ensure its demise.

Yet, even without its head, Bone Shattering King’s body was still furiously swinging the War Axe.

Xingtian?!

His first thought was whether he had missed anything while intercepting Mr. Mao’s power from the Lower Realm.

But soon, from Mr. Mao’s sorrowful emotions, Gu Hang felt it likely wasn’t the case.

Bone Shattering King’s current state seemed more like his body contained vast amounts of life force, continuing to fight despite being fatally wounded and beheaded, with his body following the inertia of muscles and bones.

A Battle Group Champion was caught off guard and killed.

However, others could perceive Bone Shattering King’s abnormal state.

They all withdrew, and Bone Shattering King’s body couldn’t decide where to pursue them. Losing his head, his sensing ability was virtually zero.

His body could only swing the War Axe futilely, as the immense life force continued to drain, with the speed increasing under the distant bombardment and gunfire from the humans.

More definitive evidence lay in Mr. Mao’s rapidly declining power.

Essentially, they hadn’t actually come over to Gu Hang’s Storm God Kingdom. Rather, the concept of proximity in Subspace is somewhat abstract and significantly linked to the real universe.

Bone Shattering King was the root of the power they two gods projected.

With Bone Shattering King’s death and the anchor point lost, their power naturally diminished sharply.

Even though in Ancache, across the entire Omegilia Star Realm, plenty of Green Skin Orcs remained, none were as significant as Bone Shattering King.

Thus, Gu Hang’s predicament was resolved.

He had been pondering that even after winning the war in the real universe, with two Green-skinned Gods squatting at his door, it was unclear how to deal with it. But now, with Bone Shattering King’s demise, those gods’ threat has greatly reduced too.

However, Mr. Mao’s rage was sky-high due to their favorite’s death. They blamed everything on Gu Hang, claiming Gu Hang was the killer—not exactly wrong.

They must release their fury, and Gu Hang was naturally the one to bear it.

But what does it matter?

Come on.

When Bone Shattering King was alive, you couldn’t do anything to me, let alone after his death.

Gu Hang waited patiently, seizing the opportunity to heal even as the two kept mobilizing power and compressing the Divine Realm.

The pressure they exerted was insignificant now.

As for how to rid himself of these two pesky entities later... actually, it’s quite simple.

With Bone Shattering King’s death, they are not to be feared; Gu Hang can guard slowly. Moreover, with his death, the Orc armies in Ancache and across the Omegilia will inevitably collapse. The human forces will spend months, years even, continuously sweeping out the viable Green Skin forces.

As the number of Green Skins is swiftly reduced, Mr. Mao will lose further ability to project power here, further weakening them from their current state.

As Gu Hang continued to heal and restore his power, once restored sufficiently with Mr. Mao weakened further, he could attempt to drive out those irritating things proactively.

How long this will take depends on how rapidly the Alliance slays the collapsing Green Skins in the real universe and Gu Hang’s own recovery speed.

How to expedite his recovery?

Gu Hang had a rather nasty idea.

He glanced into the real universe; Bone Shattering King’s battered, scarred, headless body had ceased activity.

A spiritual message was sent to all Grade S Psychics and Georgette.

In the presence of the ’Living Saint,’ surrounded by six Grade S Psychics, with a grand Psychic array comprised of dozens of Grade A Psychics, the Ork Kings’ head and body were placed together.

Although complete victory hadn’t been secured yet, with Bone Shattering King’s death, the Green Skin army was collapsing, yet they maintained high elite levels. Despite sudden terror felt after his death, racked with fear and loss of fighting spirit, their numbers and individual prowess were still notable, making them not surrender easily—they still posed a formidable challenge.

But total victory was merely a matter of time.

Conducting the victory rite slightly earlier posed no issue.

Under the Living Saint’s facilitation, using Bone Shattering King’s body and head as the most crucial spoils and symbol of victory in the war, a somewhat modest yet grand ritual commenced amidst the battlefield where the fires hadn’t yet fully subsided.

Mr. Mao could see it too, which infuriated them more.

The Storm God Kingdom’s pressure intensified slightly.

Gu Hang merely chuckled.

You’ll be angrier later, there’s no hurry.

They didn’t have to wait long; about ten minutes later, the ’simple’ ritual concluded, and Bone Shattering King’s corpse vanished amid a golden glow, surrounded by many Psychics.

According to Georgette’s announcement in the real universe, Bone Shattering King’s corpse was offered to The Emperor and had already been taken away by The Emperor.

While in actuality, the head and body lay inside the Storm God Kingdom.

Green Skins ’eating’, compared to top units of the Insect Race or the Great Demon, was different.

The tastiest was still the Great Demon; without miscellaneous elements, washing away extreme emotions and Evil God’s imprints, tempering in lightning, reverting to the most basic Subspace essence—that’s premium food.

Insect Race’s, on the other hand, required the body to be smashed, and the soul powers fused from countless biological materials using unknown transcendent methods needed conversion to pure Subspace essence before consumption.

Green Skins had a stronger taste—a spicy flavor, pure aggression, pure battle frenzy, with a non-biological nuance.

But regardless of the taste, slowly dismantled, and gradually digested, it was consumable.

This would be Gu Hang’s most potent individual consumption ever. Once entirely broken down and digested, the enhancement to the essence of the Storm God Kingdom would be colossal.

And it was all carried out in front of the two deities.

Bone Shattering King’s power stemmed from them after all.

They grew enraged, increasingly agitated.

But that didn’t hinder Gu Hang from leisurely enjoying his feast.

Just as he relished halfway, an unexpected incident occurred.

A streak of purple brilliance appeared, a soft seductive laugh, and a beautiful curved blade suddenly manifested from the Subspace, stabbing into Mr. Mao’s already weakened but still fiercely angry back of his head.
