A mage's journey begins with a battle mage.

Chapter 694 The Tragedy of the River Styx

Although they already knew what might happen to these people, the gods still felt a little heartache, after all, these were their elite troops, and they had spent countless efforts just to train them.

But there's nothing we can do about it. After all, you raise an army for a thousand days to use it for one day. If you don't use it, what's the difference between having no army at all?

"You won't be able to sway our will!"

Tyr suddenly exerted his strength, cleaving aside a tentacle that was attacking Him, and then swung his sword fiercely at Jiang Shuzhou.

The golden sword energy pierced towards Jiang Shuzhou, but Jiang Shuzhou simply blocked it with his hand.

With a soft "plop," a small gash appeared on Jiang Shuzhou's hand, from which black blood flowed.

"You can hurt him!"

Seeing this, the gods' aura instantly surged.

Therefore, although Jiang Shuzhou is difficult to deal with, he is not invincible.

If they all attack together, they might be able to win, even at some cost.

Jiang Shuzhou looked down at the gods below who were so excited over a mere cut on his hand and found it somewhat laughable.

To put it bluntly, what's the difference between this injury and a small cut on a piece of paper?

In just a moment, Jiang Shuzhou removed the power attached to Tyr from the wound, and it quickly healed.

Then, the flowing black blood fell to the ground and combined with the chaotic power, transforming into terrifying beasts.

They come in all shapes and sizes; some resemble dogs, while others look like dragons.

But without exception, all of them possess legendary strength.

Although this is not enough to deal with the gods, it can still distract them.

In particular, these monsters have a second life. Except for the monsters that are killed by the Grim Reaper, all the other monsters survive one attack, revive, and then die on the second attack.

Without a doubt, the gods are now at a disadvantage.

But don't worry, everything will be alright once the god of time comes to the rescue.

Jiang Shuzhou looked down at the gods struggling below, sighing at the ever-changing fortunes.

Back then, they were the ones who dealt with the mages and even tried to crush Jiang Shuzhou. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, these gods were no longer a match for Jiang Shuzhou.

"roar!"

A powerful roar filled with oppressive force came, followed by two enormous figures descending from the sky.

Looking around, one could see Tiamat, the five-colored dragon mother, and Bahamut, the platinum dragon god.

Jiang Shuzhou was taken aback. He had considered that other gods might come, and even that the Goddess of Winter might come, but he hadn't expected that these two would come.

It seems we haven't slain enough dragons.

"What, are you all going to be my enemies too?"

Jiang Shuzhou stared at Tiamat and Bahamut, his tone questioning.

At the same time, his body changed, and in an instant he transformed into a three-headed evil dragon.

He could steadily suppress the powerful divine forces below, but with two more added, things would be much more difficult.

Furthermore, they do not act alone.

Sure enough, accompanied by roars, hundreds more legendary dragons appeared.

Neither Tiamat nor Bahamut showed any intention of leaving at this moment.

The outcome is clear: no negotiation, only fighting.

Seeing this, Jiang Shuzhou didn't intend to say anything more. It seemed that there were more variables in this battle.

"You made the wrong choice. Now, I want to eat dragon meat."

After saying that, Jiang Shuzhou's figure swayed, and one of his dragon heads spewed out terrifying chaotic rays, while the other spewed out scorching dragon flames.

"Now!"

The suppressed gods below had a chance to catch their breath. The dragon race was already stronger than others of the same level, let alone two dragons with powerful divine strength.

Finally, with their support, the gods were able to fight again.

boom!

The violent explosion covered an area of ​​dozens of miles, and this was only because both sides controlled their own power and did not spill out too much force.

Even so, it still caused such terrible damage.

If this happened on an ordinary plane, that plane would probably have been completely blasted apart.

But this was merely the aftermath of Jiang Shuzhou's battle with the gods.

Seeing the battle now at a stalemate, Jiang Shuzhou sighed inwardly. He had originally planned to take on both sides, crushing the gods on one hand and conquering the underworld on the other.

It seems we can only deal with the underworld first.

As we all know, Jiang Shuzhou possesses a floating city, and the combat capabilities of a floating city are naturally quite formidable.

Although Jiang Shuzhou can now enter and exit the encirclement of the gods seven times without needing the floating city.

So here's the question: what about Jiang Shuzhou's floating city?

This is a good question.

However, by the time the gods realized what was happening, it might have been too late.

As for now?

Let's figure out how to win this battle first.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

The underworld, the world of the dead, is the final resting place for souls and the end of all things.

But now, someone has broken this tranquility.

As Jaeger was leaving.

"attack!"

As the command was given, one by one, the construct knights emerged from their concealed state, their figures gradually solidifying.

Looking down at the countless souls below, they remained expressionless, simply moving towards their predetermined destination.

The most important function of the underworld is to distribute souls to corresponding areas.

Those who believe in gods will be sent to the gods' kingdom, while the fallen will go to hell and the abyss.

This is an eternal and unchanging covenant.

But starting today, everything has changed.

A massive shadow loomed over the River Styx; that was Jiang Shuzhou's floating city.

As the floating city arrived, the waters of the River Styx began to ripple, as if it had sensed something.

But this is to no avail. Now, the one who has the greatest power to control the River Styx is trying to solve the root of all this.

But perhaps He didn't expect what Jiang Shuzhou was about to do.

With a violent energy surge, the floating city's main cannon was charging up.

This terrifying energy fluctuation was also sensed by the Death God's subordinates who remained here.

"Quickly, stop it!"

The god of sleep, Midler, awakens from his deep slumber.

Then, He witnessed such a thrilling scene. Although He didn't know exactly what had happened, He still made the right choice.

With His words, countless angels of death and souls awoke from their slumber and surged toward the floating city.

However, Jiang Shuzhou's troops were not to be trifled with.

The armored knights held firm against the massive attack, showing no intention of retreating.

While urgently contacting Jaeger, the god of sleep, Mildre rushed towards the floating city, attempting to stop it all from happening.

But it was too late. A thick beam of light shot towards the River Styx, and then all was silent.

With a deafening roar, the River Styx stopped flowing.
