Free Web NovelChapter 1453: Chapter 909: Submit or Fall
"Lord Eve..."
"I can now offer you two choices."
The Eternal Lord Yiteo smiled slightly, then abruptly turned serious.
His voice, cold and authoritative:
"One, submit to me and become my subordinate, I will allow you to retain your divine consciousness and faith..."
"Two, fall, I will reclaim your divine consciousness and faith, erasing your existence entirely from the Segis Universe!"
Vast Divine Power blossomed behind the Eternal Lord Yiteo, a mighty divine authority continuously pressed down on Eve.
The words, with their intense threatening intent, reverberated, causing the deities standing beside Eve to slightly change their expressions.
Then, as if in response to the words of the Eternal Lord, the Divine Battle Army descended into the Segis World, raising their weapons high, their bodies glowing.
They stepped forward, encircling the World Tree and the Chosen City below.
The battlefield, which had just briefly subsided, now rose again with a tense atmosphere.
Eve’s expression also seemed somewhat solemn.
His gaze swept over the radiantly lit Eternal Lord, then over the human deities standing beside the Eternal Lord with hostile eyes, and suddenly he let out a light laugh:
"Lord Yiteo, I thought that after knowing my true identity, you would be eager to eliminate me, yet I didn’t expect you to consider recruiting me first?" freewebnoveℓ.com
"Your persecution of the Elf Clan within this millennium made me believe without doubt that you wanted to completely erase the possibility of the World Tree’s revival, so... why did you change your mind now?"
"Or is it that the human faith in the Segis World is also crucial for your ascension, and you wish to indirectly reclaim the human faith of the Segis World by subduing me?"
After hearing Eve’s words, the Eternal Lord Yiteo showed a hint of surprise in his expression.
He looked deeply at Eve, then suddenly laughed:
"Lord Eve, I must admit, the issues you raised are indeed one of the reasons, but not the primary factor."
"Indeed, the Segis World is my former cradle of faith, and naturally, it would be best to recapture this faith of the Origin Plane when achieving greatness..."
"However, even without the human faith from the Segis World, it makes no difference to me, the faith from Segis World... is no longer necessary for me."
"The reason I wish to recruit you as a subordinate is due to your help in purifying the pollution of faith, thus offering me an opportunity toward greatness."
"Besides, you no longer possess the possibility of transcendence and are no longer a match for me, thus... considering your unique power, I hope you can be of aid to me."
"Lord Eve, we are not true enemies, and the fall of a powerful divine is a substantial loss for the Segis Universe, and for me as the impending Master of the Universe." freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
"I can also promise that once I achieve greatness and transcendence, if there is an opportunity, I can assist you in advancing further."
"This is a win-win choice..."
"What do you say, Lord Eve, would you be willing?"
The Eternal Lord Yiteo wore a smile.
That smile was confident, yet also arrogant.
Having heard these words, Eve had not yet responded, but the Red Dragon King Hertos couldn’t help but sneer.
"Hey... courtesy? Promise? Loss? Yiteo, if I didn’t know your depth, I would have truly thought you were such a tolerant Divine! Such shameless words, not even a dragon like me could utter them..."
"Heh, Yiteo, are all human-ascended faith Divines like you so despicable?"
After the Red Dragon King’s words, the other Dragon Gods around also sneered, looking at Yiteo with disdain.
Dragons themselves are an extremely proud race, and even Dragon Gods are no exception.
Although Yiteo is already the Master of Era, the Dragon Gods present, each one of them, are in fact older Divines than Yiteo.
They more or less know some of the causes and effects of the divine war thousands of years ago, and even if they don’t know the true cause of the divine war, at least they know how the Eternal Lord ascended to the throne of Master of Era.
Although there are traitors among dragons who like betrayal, dragon’s betrayal usually targets those who suppress them.
For example, using force to subdue them as Contractors, or through deception, threats, intimidation, and so on.
In the end, such methods for forming relationships aren’t true submission for dragons, and this is different from betrayal of the Mother Goddess by the Eternal Lord.
It’s normal for them to disdain Yiteo.
Led by the Red Dragon King, the Dragon Gods were mocking, but the Eternal Lord Yiteo did not get angry because of this.
His gaze remained fixed on Eve, as if all the deities present only Eve was worthy of his attention.
Furthermore, he didn’t even glance at the Red Dragon King, the inner contempt and disdain almost overflowed.
This instantly ignited the temper of the irritable Red Dragon King Hertos.
"Hey! Yiteo! You shameless creature, dare you fight me?"
He roared.
Red dragons are naturally combative, the stronger the opponent, the fiercer the battle intent.
Because of this, even facing the Eternal Lord, Hertos dared to speak fiercely.
