Global Game: Developing a Knight Clan-Chapter 199 - 167: Battle of the Saint Tier? No, Battle of the Demigods

Chapter 199: Chapter 167: Battle of the Saint Tier? No, Battle of the Demigods

At that moment, a shimmering crystal suddenly appeared out of thin air in the Flame Giant’s hand!

The crystal pulsed with immense Magic Power.

It even contained a trace of Divine Power that would be imperceptible to an ordinary person!

The moment he saw the crystal appear, the Giant Governor’s expression turned grim.

’Things are heading in the exact direction I feared!’

But when Priest Kaven saw Yide take out the crystal, he let out a heavy sigh.

’And he said he would just have a simple skirmish with the Giant Demon, then retreat to build a new stronghold for the survivors.’

’But now, he’s even taken out a precious Divine-Gifted Artifact!’

’In this era where the Deities have fallen, this kind of artifact is destroyed after a single use.’

’It’s a single-use item, a life-saving treasure, and yet this City Lord is using it here.’

However, Priest Kaven now understood why Yide would use this Divine Crystal at this moment.

It was simple.

The Giant Governor never should have told Yide about the upheaval on the continent in an attempt to subjugate him.

The continent was in chaos.

That meant the Giant Demons would no longer have the capacity to continue clearing out the Human Race of the outer seas.

So, was there really any better time to use this crystal than now?

If they could just repel, or even kill, the Saint Tier Giant Demon before them, the humans here wouldn’t have to relocate.

’In fact, if we can,’ Priest Kaven now thought, ’I should even consider contacting the enemy of the Giant Demons, the one responsible for plunging the Karte Continent back into chaos.’

’The enemy of my enemy may not be my friend, but they could secure a sliver of hope for the human civilization of the Karte World!’

’If we could take down this Giant Governor right now, and even present his head to the Giant Demons’ enemy, that would be an even better outcome.’

Having come to this realization, Priest Kaven’s expression relaxed!

Just then, the crystal in the Flame Giant’s hand burst apart!

And at that very moment.

Suddenly, an intense, searing white light erupted across the sky!

The hurricane, the dark clouds—everything was blown away!

And from within that searing white light, a colossal Elemental Creature suddenly appeared!

It was a winged, humanoid being with a curvaceous figure.

Its entire body was enveloped in huge, pure white wings. As twelve pairs of massive, holy wings unfurled, the figure expanded, revealing a terrifying form over five thousand meters tall, hovering between heaven and earth!

At that same moment, this female "Angel" with closed eyes opened them, revealing eyes devoid of all emotion!

As it looked down upon the Giant Governor, the indifference in its eyes was replaced by an intense killing intent.

"An Angel, is it?"

"A Divine Attendant of a native Deity, a Demigod’s projection..."

Gazing at the holy figure, the Giant Governor’s expression showed no fear, only a hint of caution and admiration.

The Giant Governor hadn’t been powerful enough to participate in the war in the Star Realm.

But the Deities and Demigods from this world that appeared during the war in the Star Realm were no secret in the Empire.

After the war, many meetings and even the imperial libraries had records of them.

Therefore, this Giant Governor knew all about the existence of Angels.

"Since you’ve made your choice, I suppose I shouldn’t disappoint you."

"A mere projection of a fallen Demigod. I’d like to see how much power it can still wield!"

The Giant Governor’s face turned cold!

And so, the instant the Angel appeared, he thrust his staff into the air!

At the same time, the staff instantly erupted with a terrifying torrent of gray gas.

This gray torrent shot between heaven and earth, instantly pushing back the vast amount of Holy Light that filled the sky and sea.

At this moment, the many Giant Demons and even the Human Professionals on the battlefield had all instantly fled the area.

What followed was a battle of Deities!

Even if this battle was a war of projections between Demigods.

It was no place for ordinary Extraordinary Creatures to remain.

The gray mist was as thick as smoke, and then it suddenly flowed backward and condensed.

In the next instant, a terrifying, two-horned Giant Demon appeared!

This Giant Demon’s entire body was covered in a multitude of strange runes that would daze any ordinary creature who looked at them.

The moment it stretched its body, faint booming sounds could be heard echoing through the air.

The two-horned Giant Demon was, of course, also a Demigod’s projection.

It wasn’t even as tall as the Angel, standing at a mere three thousand-plus meters.

But its projected Elemental Body was far more solid and substantial, and its aura was even more terrifying!

’Perhaps this was the difference between the projection of a living Demigod and that of a dead one!’

The two Demigod projections appeared in the blink of an eye.

Then, the divine battle erupted in an instant!

The sky filled with volleys of holy Light Feather Arrows, as well as a dense web of gray chains that constantly extended outward.

During this process, the Angel projection continuously cut down all the chains with an Elemental Sword it conjured.

But whenever a chain was severed, a new one would always appear, attempting to ram and entrap the Angel.

During this exchange, the Angel projection clearly had no intention of fighting a protracted battle, and in an instant, it manifested a magnificent, massive long sword in its hand!

The terrifying Giant Sword slashed viciously down at the Giant Demon!

In that instant, the terrifying light of the sword triggered a riot of Elements.

The sea was instantly cleaved, creating a chasm in the current over thirty kilometers long.

As for the Giant Demon projection, it was successfully split in two by this strike, dissipating into ethereal mist!

But soon, with a burst of mocking laughter, the terrifying figure of the Giant Demon projection instantly reformed in the Space above and behind the Angel projection.

With a sarcastic smile on its face, it viciously smashed a fist straight into the Angel’s face!

BOOM!!!

With a terrifying sonic boom, the sea erupted in the next moment, monstrous waves blasting a huge crater into its surface!

And within that crater lay the battered form of the Angel projection!

"It still failed after all? Utterly useless!"

"’Demon Slaughter’... what a waste of a Demigod’s Divine Title."

Flame Giant Yide’s face was incredibly grim.

It was because the entire Half-Body of the Angel projection lying in the massive crater had been blown apart by the Giant Demon projection!

Its lower half was also rapidly dissolving into specks of light.

The Angel had appeared for only three to five breaths before being unceremoniously obliterated. It was a truly pathetic sight.

’But then again, it was just the projection of a fallen Angel, with no intelligence and greatly diminished Power. How could it fight a living Giant Demon Demigod on instinct alone?’

"Yide!!! Go now!!!"

The moment the Giant Demon Demigod’s projection appeared, Priest Kaven knew the situation had become dire!

They never imagined that the Saint Tier Giant Demon they encountered would, of all things, also be the descendant of a Demigod.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to have a Demigod’s protection; after all, projecting a Demigod into the mortal world comes at a huge cost and consumption of energy.

Thus, neither of them had ever considered such a possibility.

And so, the instant the Angel projection was destroyed, Priest Kaven immediately sent a frantic telepathic message to the Flame Giant!

At this point, Yide naturally knew their chance was lost.

Without a second thought, he crushed a precious Teleportation Crystal in his hand.

But the crushed crystal didn’t teleport Yide away at all!

It was as if Yide had simply crushed an ordinary Glazed Bead.

In an instant, the expressions of both Priest Kaven and Flame Yide changed drastically!

They immediately whipped their heads to look at the Giant Demon projection.

At that moment, the terrifying projection of the Giant Demon Demigod was looking down on them, its face twisted into a disdainful sneer.

"Two little native insects actually dared to try and ambush and kill a talented scion of my Damon Clan. How bold!"

"Trying to escape now? Too late! Since I have already paid the price for this Descent, I might as well turn you into an achievement for my clan’s descendant!"

The Giant Demon Demigod’s projection wore an indifferent expression.

Then, in the next instant, it opened its palm toward Flame Giant Yide.

At the same time, a terrifying gray hand of Magic instantly formed high in the sky.

This hand, with a diameter of over ten kilometers, viciously slapped down toward the sea below!
