Chapter 420 - The Evil God Descends! Zeus Regrets!

"Keke keke, this guy's strength is not bad - quite a delicious delicacy~" Suddenly! The Grotesque Clown abruptly appeared in Zeus's face, startling him so much that his entire body shuddered! Gone was any trace of his previous majesty as the strongest God King. He was like an elementary school student who had mistakenly entered a high school classroom. Looking around nervously, not daring to raise his head when seeing anyone.

Whether it was the Headhunter or the Forbidden Death God, just one glance told him these were absolutely not entities to mess with. Because for heretics, the more powerful an existence, the more delicious the food.

Zeus secretly gritted his teeth - once Lin Tian and the old gods were dealt with, he could stand at the pinnacle of this world again. For now, he just had to endure some humiliation.

At this time, the Headhunter rubbed the blade in his hand, saying impatiently, "Hurry up and take us to hunt the most exquisite delicacies at the top of this world. I can't wait any longer." The other evil gods' eyes all lit up. Similarly, their purpose in coming here wasn't just to spread fear and despair. There was also the matter of tasting delicacies. The strong ones of a small dimensional world were completely beatable, and they could also enjoy the food.

However, the Pot of Greed shot out tentacles to knock everyone away, saying irritably, "What do you mean 'take you'? I brought you here only to suppress and maintain this world's creature population. Leave the rest to you - naturally, only I deserve to enjoy the most delicious parts."

Hearing this, each evil god's expression instantly changed! They became savage and twisted! The terrifying atmosphere frightened Zeus into retreating step by step, completely unable to breathe! If he stayed any longer, he feared being caught up in the battle, which would definitely end badly for him.

"Pot of Greed, aren't you being a bit too greedy?" "Hogging everything for yourself - aren't you afraid of choking to death?!" "Don't come seeking our help later!" Each evil god said coldly.

The Pot of Greed looked completely unconcerned: "If you're not happy about it, then go back to the heretic world! Or when you're dragged back by the Supreme Will's power later, don't come asking me to help bring you here again!"

Although these evil gods had already come to the Forgotten Land, the effect was similar to teleportation. As time increased, they would all be dragged back by the power of rules.

Hearing this, the crowd of evil gods restrained their auras. After all, there were only so many strong ones in a world - they couldn't compare to half a world's worth of creatures. Because according to the Pot of Greed's plan, he couldn't go hunt and devour other creatures. And all other creatures were the spoils of these evil gods.

"Keke keke, just joking - you're too sensitive." The Headhunter said sarcastically. The many evil gods also put on apologetic smiles.

At this time, Zeus naturally advised for safety's sake: "Lord Pot of Greed, those guys are far stronger than we imagined, and they're full of schemes. How about having multiple evil god lords act together instead?"

As soon as he finished speaking! "Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" Foul-smelling tentacles covered in slime surrounded Zeus completely! Eyes cold and sinister opened on the tentacles, and there were even mouths full of sharp teeth! Like cobras launching an attack, they menacingly threatened Zeus.

Nearby, the Pot of Greed's expression was extremely ugly as he said harshly: "Zeus, do you think you have a right to speak in a situation like this?"

"Bang!" Immediately, a tentacle heavily struck Zeus! Pressing him to kneel on the ground, veins bulging on his forehead as he coughed up blood! It was incredibly unbelievable! Because this power was completely on a different level! Any casual strike was already at Odin's heavy attack level.

Although he could escape with speed, when facing these evil beings, he could only act humble and submissive. Otherwise, heaven knows what they might do next second.

"S-sorry." Zeus angrily bit his teeth but said the most cowardly words.

"Hahaha!" "This is what you called the new God King of this world before? The strongest God King? You're killing me with laughter!" "A guy as base as a rat, keke keke!"

Around them, evil mocking laughter rang out. The intense aura formed was like an abyss, about to swallow Zeus! Just mockery directed at someone was enough to become a mental attack. This was the formidable power of evil gods.

Seeing Zeus lying on the ground, his body twisting in pain, nearly done for, the Pot of Greed finally stopped everyone: "Alright, go have your fun, but creatures are scarce now. Remember to control your appetites - don't eat everything up, or there'll be nothing left to play with!"

To eat and also to play - this was why they were called evil gods. If it was just about eating flesh and blood to fill their stomachs without torturing and toying with lives, it wouldn't even count as evil. The number of people these guys had played to death was tens of millions of times more than those they'd eaten.

"Lead the way. I'll be magnanimous and help you regain your status, you pitiful little thing..." The Pot of Greed extended a tentacle and lifted Zeus up like picking up a chick. Full of contempt.

Zeus, his face full of pain, couldn't help but begin to regret - was what he was doing actually right?!

...

In the dwarf bunker. "Everyone, are you all confident?" Lin Tian stood before the royal palace hall, asking gravely. Below, Alice, One-Eyed Owl, and everyone else were gathered together.

During this time, through mutual discussion, they had roughly completed preparations for dealing with the evil god Pot of Greed. They had also prepared countermeasures for other evil gods as well.

For instance, the most likely encountered Pot of Greed. Its disarming ability could be called its strongest technique. Because weapons were extremely important. But the Pot of Greed's tentacles could bind people's hands and feet then seize their weapons. And it could ignore weapon imprints to directly use them. This point was extremely deadly.

From beginning to end, no one could seize weapons on the spot and use them due to magical imprints. If someone other than the one who left the imprint used it, they would suffer powerful magical backlash. But the Pot of Greed could be immune to this.

So Lin Tian had gathered everyone to create magic overnight - 'Anti-Disarming Magic'. If a weapon left one's hand, it would instantly teleport into one's spatial ring. Then it could be taken out and used again.

Actually, the principle was very simple, which was why it could be created in such a short time. It was somewhat like a simple script. Because they could already put weapons back into spatial rings and take them out again. But to prevent being too slow during battle, they set up passive magic that would automatically complete a series of steps when the weapon left their hand.

As for other evil gods, for the Headhunter, they used the remaining bit of Gang Ancient Alloy from the dwarf treasury to make neck guard collars. As long as they could withstand a few strikes at close range, they had a complete chance of victory. Unless the opponent's weapon could easily break through Gang Ancient Alloy. That would be fate - they didn't think about anything beyond that.

For the Forbidden Death God, that was even simpler. Lin Tian gave everyone a notebook where the text was interconnected for everyone - whatever someone wrote, everyone could see. If they encountered the Forbidden Death God, they would test one by one to discover what actions violated taboos, then write it down. This way they could greatly increase survival rates.

Dealing with the Silent Lamb was even simpler. Using the Heart Sutra that Lin Tian knew from Earth, everyone had been fasting and chanting for several days. They had already purified themselves to the utmost purity. They could perfectly control their hearts.

For the Grotesque Clown, setting aside those supernatural circus methods, for mental attacks they prepared psychologically. If the opponent summoned something they feared, they would overcome it. Lin Tian had helped everyone overcome this using the Dream Realm. They had complete confidence in defeating the Grotesque Clown.

As for the Smiling Angel, they currently had no solution. Because it was too random. Not looking at the Smiling Angel was hard to do. After all, eyes had to stay open, and if it suddenly appeared in front of them, they could only accept their fate. But they wouldn't give up.

Once someone made eye contact with the Smiling Angel, they absolutely couldn't look away. Let others attack. The Smiling Angel looked like a single-target attack character no matter how you looked at it, while Lin Tian's side was fighting as a team.

Then Lin Tian instructed: "Remember, these evil gods' strength is all at the top God King level. Their attributes far exceed yours. You absolutely cannot take their attacks head-on - you can only deflect or dodge. Otherwise, once you get into a prolonged fight, you'll definitely die."

Everyone nodded. They had already prepared mentally for this final battle!

"As long as we win this time, I plan to open a big tavern. When the time comes, if you want to drink, it'll all be free! Hahaha!" One-Eyed Owl said excitedly, her face full of anticipation.

Georgia and Osius quickly chimed in: "We'll be the tavern's waiters! It'd be best if the tavern had some special services - let us be the madams, hehehe..." As soon as they finished speaking, both were punched and sent flying several hundred meters away.

One-Eyed Owl looked toward Alice and asked: "Lady Alice, what about you? This battle might be the final battle. If we win, what do you plan to do? Marry that guy and become his bride?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone perked up their ears. Including Georgia and the other who had been sent flying. First, they all cared deeply about Alice, and second, this question was explosively direct.

Hearing those words, Alice rarely showed such confusion, her neck reddening as she stammered, "I, I don't know either. I've gotten used to following. If possible, I'd like to continue following His Majesty Lin Tian..."

"We all understand, heh heh heh," Luo Ai'er chimed in at this moment.

Lin Tian also looked at her curiously, "Speaking of which, what about you?"

Although Lin Tian knew this definitely wouldn't be the final battle, he still wanted to understand everyone else's thoughts.

After all, this journey had been too difficult and dangerous.

Almost constantly fighting, or preparing for battle.

Upon hearing this, Luo Ai'er was stunned for a moment, then looked at Goblin Moon with a shameless expression, "Of course I'm waiting for Lady Xiya to recover her strength, then spend the rest of my life with her until we're old and gray~ What do you think, Lady Xiya?"

Goblin Moon stepped back several paces with disgust written all over her face, "Don't be like that. I'll always follow the boss anyway, just like at the beginning. Whatever he tells me to do, I'll do. The boss treats me well."

"I treat you well too..." Luo Ai'er looked bitter and tragic.

One-Eyed Owl said irritably, "Just shut up. Speaking of which, what about Leah and this lady?"

The Elf Queen was stunned, looking hopeful, "I'm very grateful to have met His Majesty Goblin, but the mistakes I made can never be made up for. If possible, I'd like to stay by His Majesty's side as a personal maid in the future, taking care of his daily needs..."

As she spoke, those watery beautiful eyes looked at Lin Tian with deep affection.

Utterly sincere.

Although Lin Tian felt this was completely against his conscience, without conscience, wouldn't happiness come? Naturally, he wouldn't refuse.

Leah pondered for a moment, "Since the Queen wants to be the boss's maid, then I'll go manage the Elf Kingdom."

"That's good. The elves should break convention. The queen should be determined by ability, not by the Holy Mountain's choice."

The Elf Queen's expression showed relief.

Then Lin Tian looked toward Goblin Fury and the others.

These guys had developed enough wisdom and sufficient strength.

He wondered what they wanted to do in the future.

Goblin Fury felt somewhat embarrassed being stared at, scratching his head frantically, "I... I don't know what to do either. As long as the boss gives me food and a few women to keep me happy, that's enough for me, heh heh..."

Hearing this, Lin Tian really wanted to take back his earlier words. This guy's wisdom really couldn't compare to Goblin Sky and Goblin Good.

"I still want to be like before, helping the boss properly manage the empire he rules. But after winning this battle, it'll be managing the entire world."

"Me too. Although managing the world is difficult, our management methods don't require much thinking and we can still handle it."

Goblin Sky and Goblin Good bowed as they spoke.

Looking completely willing to serve faithfully.

At this moment, Goblin Fury finally reacted, "Right, right, me too!"

Lin Tian couldn't help but laugh, "That's good. When the time comes, you must properly pass down my spirit."

Using violence to control violence was no longer enough.

Rather, using cruel brutality to control violence.

This could achieve a perfectly harmonious world, making it very easy to rule.

Athena, who was cleaning the palace nearby, couldn't help but glance at Lin Tian, very humbly and warily.

Unexpectedly, their eyes met.

Athena blushed, "I... I want to find someone, have a child, and live the most ordinary but happiest life..."

"Wait, who asked you?" One-Eyed Owl deliberately stirred up trouble.

This made Athena extremely embarrassed and angry.

During this time, she had begun to suspect she'd become a ninja turtle.

But due to her choice, she was able to integrate into Lin Tian's team.

She could only endure helplessly.

After all, in terms of wisdom, she lost to Lin Tian. In terms of military combat ability, during the first part of the bunker battle, the army she led was defeated by Lin Tian.

Such an existence was worthy of her joining and relying on.

For a smart person, she deeply understood the principle that wise birds choose good trees to perch on.

Just like how Zhuge Liang was clearly smarter than Liu Bei, but he didn't become emperor himself and instead chose to assist him.

Moreover, Lin Tian's wisdom and strength far surpassed Athena's.

Hearing this, the mocked Athena became embarrassed and angry.

Everyone thought One-Eyed Owl's joke had gone too far.

They thought Athena would explode.

Unexpectedly, Athena looked at Lin Tian with teary eyes, "Your Majesty, look at her! What she said is really hurtful~ wuu wuu wuu..."

"Holy crap..."

"Holy thunder..."

Poseidon, Hades and others were completely dumbfounded.

Was this Athena clever or shameless? To gain Lin Tian's recognition, she was willing to put aside her dignity to act cute and coquettish!

So it wasn't that goddesses were cold and hard to pursue.

It's that you're not a male god! Or lack money and power!
