Free Web NovelChapter 269: Chapter269-The Invasion of the Myriad Races Begins
John’s gaze quickly swept across every line on the panel.
Then he slowly smiled.
"A gamble. Competing in total damage dealt."
He lightly moved his wrist, feeling the terrifying skills inside his body that had already been tempered to perfection through countless battles, as well as the hundredfold non-affiliated skill damage bonus brought by the Omni-System Skill Legacy he had just obtained.
"If it were a competition in something else, I might still have some concerns. But if we’re comparing damage output..."
John raised his head and looked toward the opposite side of the roulette wheel.
There, a blurry silver-white figure had already appeared, representing the guardian projection of the fourth floor.
"I have never once thought I would lose."
He raised his hand and pushed out everything in his storage space that could be wagered.
Gold coins.
Tens of trillions.
Divinity.
All of it.
Divine Class Points.
All of them.
Equipment.
All items.
All materials.

And—
"Lifespan. Five hundred years."
John’s calm voice echoed through the hall, as if he were speaking of some insignificant matter.
The golden inscriptions on the roulette wheel spun wildly, devouring all of the stakes before releasing a massive buzzing sound.
[Wager confirmed!]
[Law Gamble, begin!]
[Time Limit: 5 minutes]
[Countdown begins—]
The silver-white projection moved the instant the countdown reached zero.
Countless spatial blades stabbed toward John from all directions. Every single one possessed enough power to pierce through an ordinary demigod-grade powerhouse.
But John had no intention of defending himself at all.
He stood in place and allowed those spatial blades to fall onto his body.
Phoenix Fire flowed over his skin, burning and devouring all damage completely, without leaving even a single trace of blood.
Then he raised his hand.
[Skill: Godshadow (SS) activated—]
His figure suddenly blurred into nothingness.
When he reappeared, he was already behind the projection.
[Skill: Lightning Chain (SS) activated—]
Countless幽蓝 lightning chains shot out violently from the void, binding and imprisoning the projection tightly. Every chain conducted destructive lightning damage.
[Skill: Phantom Blink (SS) activated—]
John’s body transformed into dozens of afterimages, striking the projection from different directions at the same time.
Immediately afterward—
[Skill: Sunpiercer (SS) activated—]
A golden light arrow that pierced through the heavens condensed in his palm. Its scorching radiance illuminated the entire hall until it was as bright as day.
The instant the light arrow left his hand, it tore open a burning scar dozens of yards long through space itself.
Boom!!!
The light arrow pierced into the projection’s body and exploded into a golden fireball powerful enough to destroy a small city.
[Accumulated Damage: 7,200,000,000!]
The number on the panel jumped wildly.
But this was far from over.
A cold glint flashed in John’s eyes. Under the hundredfold amplification of the Omni-System Skill Legacy, all of the non-affiliated skills inside his body erupted at their maximum power at the same time.
[Annihilation of All (SS)—]
[Godfall (SS)—]
[All Laws Return to Ruin (SS)—]
[Judgment of the End (SS)—]
One forbidden skill after another, hidden deep among his trump cards, poured out like a flood.
The radiance of Divinity burned wildly around his body. Every strike landed precisely on the core nodes of the projection.
[Accumulated Damage: 18,700,000,000!]
[30,100,000,000!]
[44,600,000,000!]
[59,900,000,000!]
The instant the final skill landed, the number on the golden roulette wheel finally stopped.
[Accumulated Damage: 99,900,000,000!]
[Gamble settlement in progress...]
[Your Total Damage: 99,900,000,000!]
[Guardian Projection’s Total Damage: 8,300,000,000!]
[You have won!]
[You have obtained all stakes wagered by the guardian projection!]
[Rewards are being settled...]
[Obtained: Gold coins +3,000,000,000,000!]
[Obtained: Divinity +8,000,000!]
[Obtained: Spatial Law Fragment (High Grade) ×12!]
[Obtained: Random God-rank Item ×1!]
[Obtained: Skill Ascension Scroll ×3!]
John stood in place, breathing slightly. Looking at the constantly refreshing reward prompts in front of him, the corners of his mouth slowly curved into a satisfied smile.
99.9 billion damage.
This number had already far exceeded the normal damage output limit of demigod-grade powerhouses.
Although the price was that in just five short minutes, he had nearly burned away more than half of the divine power inside his body, and both Phoenix Fire and his Divinity showed brief signs of exhaustion.
The result was worth it.
Twelve high-grade Spatial Law fragments were enough to raise his comprehension of Spatial Law to another level.
Three Skill Ascension Scrolls could also upgrade three more divine skills to a higher level.
John put away all the rewards and silently opened his own panel for a glance.
Level: 340.
He was still a full sixty levels away from the Level 500 High God threshold.
But that was not a big problem. His reserves of Divine Class Points and leveling resources were enough to support him all the way to Level 500.
"When Space Tower opens again, I’ll clear a few more floors and obtain more Law fragments. Then I’ll break through to Level 500 in one go."
After finishing his calculations, John stored away all the spoils from the fourth floor.
"When the time comes, I can finally use the entry qualification for the Multiversal Tournament."
He turned and prepared to leave the Holy Grail space.
But at that moment, an urgent wave of information suddenly came through the communication channel.
It was Alan, the vice guild leader.
"Guild Leader, something has happened.
"The vanguard of the myriad races has already landed and is advancing toward the heart of the continent.
"There are many of them. Conservative estimates put them at over ten million Level 300 elites."
John’s footsteps paused.
"Understood."
He replied in a low voice with just one word.
Then his figure vanished from the Holy Grail space.
...
Zone 5.
Above the Apocalypse Continent, dark clouds were gathering.
A resounding World Announcement rang out.
[World Announcement: The Invasion of the Myriad Races has begun. They will attack all human-occupied regions from the abyssal plane of the demon race.]
[Attention: The Invasion of the Myriad Races is about to begin! It is about to begin! All players, please prepare for battle!]
The instant the World Announcement sounded, all the players across the region were stunned.
"What’s going on? The Invasion of the Myriad Races has already started this quickly?"
"Are you kidding me? I remember the Trial of the First Seat only ended not long ago, right?"
"The abyssal plane has fallen. The cities we captured in the abyss were directly counterattacked and retaken."
"Damn it! According to reports from the players of Star, there are probably over ten million of them this time, and every one of them is above Level 300. Some monsters can’t even be detected with Detection anymore."
"Hurry and notify the Guild Leader! Where is the Guild Leader?"
Just as the players were panicking, John’s voice appeared in the guild channel.
"All of you, quiet down.
"We have already fought against a demon race invasion before. This time, it has merely changed to the myriad races. There is nothing to be afraid of."
The moment John’s voice appeared, the entire area fell silent.
The panic on many players’ faces gradually faded.
After all, the Guild Leader’s return often meant one thing.
This Invasion of the Myriad Races—
They were safe!
