Chapter 638: The Battlefield of the Gods

The announcement about the participation for the Battlefield of the Gods, something that the entire world had been waiting for, was finally released. Many commentators from all over the world began to discuss the announcement.

[Joy Co. Ltd. has finally revealed how to participate in the Battlefield of the Gods.]

[The Battlefield of the Gods will be divided into two portions.]

[The first part is the ‘Siege Battle’. During this siege battle, ‘God’ will be protecting his temple. It is also said that God can call for his ‘Divine Army’.?

[According to the announcement, God can command a total of 100,000 Divine Army troops. If God is the lord or a king of a territory then, they will be able to call for their own troops as long as they are equivalent to the 100,000 Divine Army troops.]

[There’s also the ‘Envoy Summoning’, something that God can use to call for their Named NPCs. However, this is something that can only be done using contributions. Also, if God does not have any Named NPCs, they will be only able to summon the Named NPCs that Joy Co. Ltd. has prepared for them.]

[The rules are simple. The challengers only need to drive out the Divine Army that blocks their way and make their way to ‘God’s Temple’ and cut down God.]

[However, if God slaughters his enemies, then he will receive very high contributions. So, if they get killed here, then all the challengers could do is to wait for the next trial.]

[The challengers are also able to call for an army called ‘God’s Antagonists’. The Divine Army troops’ level will be around Level 400~500, which means that God’s Antagonists level will also be around the same level. However, they will be a little special.]

[A little special? What’s special about them?]

[God’s Antagonists are completely different from the challengers. They are the ‘soldiers’ that will fight alongside them in the battlefield. Surprisingly, these soldiers are players.]

The players that listened to the commentators’ explanation cheered in delight.

[That’s very interesting. God’s Antagonists are players?]

[That’s right. Players at Level 400 to Level 500 will be able to join the Battlefield of the Gods. Of course, the number of players at Level 500 are small. However, the lower their numbers, the more players will be able to participate.]

[A total of 500,000 God’s Antagonists can be deployed. For those that applied, they will be randomly selected. Also, there’s a far more interesting fact.]

[An interesting fact?]

[Yes. If the players are able to join God’s Antagonists and participate in the Battlefield of the Gods, they will have the opportunity to change into a God-class player. It doesn’t matter if they are normal, secret, legend or hidden classes, they will all have equal chances of getting this opportunity.]

[Wow. That’s a really great opportunity.]

[Yes. Perhaps, the God-class players will even have to be afraid of normal classes. This time, everyone would have a chance to get stronger.]

[The greatest example of this kind of players are Khan the Master of Fists and Carr the Emperor of the Swords.]

[That’s right. Khan is a legend class player while Carr is a normal class player.]

[They’re not God-class players, but they are one of the global leading rankers. I already can’t imagine how powerful they will become with this opportunity.]

[The first portion of the Battlefield of the Gods can be explained simply like that. Now, let’s move on to the second portion.]

[The second portion of the Battlefield of the Gods is hunting the ‘Corrupted Twin Gods’.]

[The Corrupted Twin Gods? Can you explain about that in more detail?]

[Yes. The Corrupted Twin Gods are the children of one of the Six Monster Gods, Obren. From what I have heard, Obren is the strongest among all of the Six Monster Gods. However, information about him is still hidden behind a thick veil.]

[Obren’s children, the Corrupted Twin Gods, was originally a single entity upon birth. It was said that this God loved slaughter and destruction and that the power that they could release was in fact above that of the Absolute Gods. Because of that, the Absolute Gods and Athenae divided them into two and turned them into twins.]

[Ho? So, if they were a single entity, then it would have been impossible to hunt them. But separated and turned into twins, the power that they could exert is most definitely around the same as ordinary Gods.]

[That’s right. They are divided in two under the name of twins. They’ll only be able to exert around 60% of their power compared to when they were still a single entity.]

[I see. As long as you’re not a fool, then you will be able to tell what will happen to the hunt of the Corrupted Twin Gods.]

[Yes. The Corrupted Twin Gods both possess similar power. Either the God contender or the challengers will kill the Corrupted Twin Gods. Also, the contribution will vary depending on the amount of damage dealt and shocking hunting methods and completion time.]

[The hunt for the Corrupted Twin Gods will be a fun and interesting content. Of course, you will receive generous tremendous rewards once they kill the Corrupted Twin God, right?]

[That’s right. Joy Co. Ltd. has basically announced that the Corrupted Twin Gods are literally ‘Gods’. This meant that they would be able to get rewards for hunting Gods.

As for the player that will participate as God, they will be able to monopolize the rewards. Assuming that they win.

On the other hand, even if the challengers do not win the Battlefield of the Gods, they will still be able to receive rewards for hunting the Corrupted Twin Gods.]

[It’s a pity but if the player that participates as God loses, they will not be able to receive the rewards for hunting. On top of that, they will also lose their qualifications to become a True God.]

[That is the ‘penalty’ for those that challenge God first. Those that challenge the throne must bear the weight that accompanies it.]

.

[The Battlefield of the Gods will open at 18:00, two days later.]

[We hope that many players will be delighted and honored to fight against or alongside the world’s best God-class players in the Battlefield of the Gods.]

***

Minhyuk was now fully prepared. Hepas’ Descendant Hyemin’sDaddy had continuously produced artifacts for him, many of which were legendary-rank. That was why only five Named NPCs were equipped with God-rank artifacts, but there were at least 20 NPCs equipped with legendary-rank artifacts.

In the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom, only the top executives were aware that Minhyuk was the one participating as God. There was a weird feeling that surrounded Minhyuk and a few of the executives. This was none other than the tension that one would feel at the eve of a fight.

That was only natural. After all, there were several high rankers in the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom that had reached this point, after overcoming limitations that even God-class players could not go against. Among them were Carr, Khan, Ares and many more. They were the unchosen ones. They rose to their position solely by their own talents and efforts. All of them were thinking that perhaps this was their chance to walk the path of the ‘chosen’. Even if Minhyuk was their friend and comrade, this was a separate matter altogether.

‘That’s also a possibility,’?Minhyuk thought, with no signs of disappointment on his face. In fact, he was already very grateful that these people did not disclose the fact that he was the ‘God’ to the public.

‘There’s only fifteen minutes left.’

In fifteen minutes, the Battlefield of the Gods would finally open. Once it opened, Minhyuk would automatically access the event as a God, and the other God-class players would automatically access it as the challengers. There were quite a few people from the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom that had been selected as his opponents and antagonists. Out of all the opponents that Minhyuk would face, he was most wary of them. Minhyuk’s eyes met Carr's, who seemed to be very nervous.

Smile—

The two smiled at each other. While they were meeting each other as enemies in this event that had to win over the other, that would not change the fact that they were friends. Everything was fair game.

Besides, Minhyuk also knew, ‘Carr, you wanted to become a God, right?’

‘Minhyuk, I will become God today.’

Because of that, Carr would do his best and likewise, Minhyuk would not let anything slide past him. Minhyuk was sure that Carr would be at least in the top three in contributions.

Besides, Carr was the Emperor of the Swords. Ellie had refused the position of Sword God and Minhyuk only inherited part of the power of the Sword God. This meant that Carr had the highest probability of becoming the Sword God.

After looking at Carr, Minhyuk turned to look at the Named NPCs under him. They would be his strongest allies in this war. Of course, Minhyuk had to gain contributions for him to be able to summon his Envoys.

In just a blink, the event was already about to start.

[There are ten seconds left before you enter the Battlefield of the Gods!]

[There are a total of 500 God-class players participating in the Battlefield of the Gods!]

[The God will start the game in the ‘temple’!]

[God can oversee all of the areas in the battlefield.]

[God can use ‘God’s Voice’!]

[You are entering the Battlefield of the Gods!]

***

Carr heard notifications ringing in his ears continuously.

[You have entered the Battlefield of the Gods!]

[Everything that is happening inside the Battlefield of the Gods will be broadcasted live all over the world!]

[You have entered the game as an antagonist.]

[If you hunt God or his envoys, you will be able to earn gold, artifacts, and even EXP as rewards.]

Carr trembled as he released a breath while looking at his surroundings. One after the other, the God-class players from all over the world began to appear one after another.

“It’s Master Archer Miao.”

“The God of Archery…!”

Of course, there were some of them that stood out among the other God-class players. Just like that, the God-class challengers and the almost-500,000 players began to gather in the name of God’s Antagonists. Carr’s position was not that low among them. Also, the 500 God-class players and some of the antagonists had already talked in community sites.

‘Minhyuk, it won’t be easy. There are 500 God-class players here.’

Meanwhile, some of the God-class players said…

“It’s good to have a head start, right?”

“We need to kill his momentum early on.”

For all of the God-class players that entered, they were given the power to use ‘God’s Message’. The God’s Message allowed them to do something like: ‘The God that is good at something smiles at you’.?Furthermore, the God-class players could only use it once. Immediately after that, one of the God-class players smirked at ‘God’.

[The God-class player who is good at buffs looks at God with a mean and vicious smirk on his face.]

That kicked off a whole wave of notifications.

[The God-class player who is good at alchemy says that she will give God a potion that tastes like shit.]

[The God-class player who is good at making parchment clicks his tongue at God.]

Notifications like these kept on ringing.

[The God-class player who is good at creating maps…]

[The God-class player who is good at running…]

[The God-class player who is good at building construction…]

“Hahahahaha!”

“This… this message function is very interesting in its own way!”

“We can’t use curses? I’d like to spit out a bit of curses.”

Someone among them was convinced that they would be able to defeat God in the end. In fact, all of this confidence was because they did not know who God was, and the fact that their numbers were overwhelming. That was why they felt they could easily mock him. However, there were also quite a few people that frowned at the mockery.

‘That’s pathetic…’

Carr was one of them. However, he did not bother to interfere with what they were doing. This was because he also thought that such a head start was necessary.

Just when the notifications of the God-class players’ mockery continued to ring…

[God has invoked ‘God’s Voice’!]

[You cannot use God’s Message in the presence of a Great God!]

Everyone, all 500 of the God-class players and 500,000 players, suddenly turned quiet. Above them, a video appeared, showing the figure of God sitting arrogantly on his throne in the temple while crossing his leg and leaning back nonchalantly. They could not see God’s face but they heard the notifications.

[God looks at you in sympathy. In his eyes, you all look pathetic and pitiful.]

[God is using God’s Voice to try and speak to you.]

Everyone’s attention focused on the notifications. How would God react to their mockery and provocation? Did it work? Soon, they got the answer to those questions.

[A sigh leaves God’s mouth.]

[You f*cking god bastards… Haaa.]

“…”

“…”

“…”

The words were short yet powerful, and it made all of their faces turn hot and red.
