Chapter 516: Greater God Dimension

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

"The World of Gods?" Red Tail suddenly felt dizzy. She couldn't imagine why the one before her would want to establish a branch there when the war was still at a stalemate.

Gu Nan nodded. "Don't worry, the war is coming to an end. I’ll write another manual in two days to create a complete ceasefire between the two sides."

Red Tail couldn't help asking curiously, "W-What manual?"

"Gods’ Hunting Protection Manual."

As the author of the Weak Gods Hunting Manual, Gu Nan certainly knew what key points were worth paying attention to and what loopholes could be exploited by the gods in advance.

As long as the difficulty of the God Hunt increased—causing the costs and benefits to return to a normal ratio—the wave of God Hunts would no longer be as frenzied and would inevitably turn into a small-scale activity.

The corner of Red Tail's mouth twitched slightly. She hesitantly ventured, "But… if My Lord wants to instigate another war in the future…"

"Won’t I just have to write a Hunting Manual 2.0?" Gu Nan answered with a shrug and glanced at Red Tail. "You’re very talkative today. Don’t want to go to the World of Gods?"

"It’s not that…" Red Tail replied speechlessly. She’d been bored sick these days and longed for something to do, but running to the World of Gods was indeed a bit sudden.

However, as Gu Nan's most useful subordinate, Red Tail quickly adjusted her mentality and said with a serious expression, "I understand. May I inquire about the main goal behind establishing a branch office this time?"

"To collect intelligence, especially information from the main planes." Gu Nan thought for a while and added, "I need you to help me find some good seedlings. They must be people who originally believed in gods but later experienced a collapse in faith."

"What if the other party’s faith has always been firm?"

"Then find a way to make them fall," Gu Nan answered without even looking up. "Lan Si will go with you; she’ll be a good guide. Bring Xie Yun and the others with you as well; they can be used as hired thugs."

The so-called "Xie Yun and the others" referred to Xie Yun, An Tiansheng, and Liang Ruxin.

Although Gu Nan's player army didn’t have many members, practically all of them were elites, especially Xie Yun, An Tiansheng, and Liang Ruxin, who had all advanced to Tier 5 by now.

For mortals, Tier 5 was equivalent to a Star Ruler or god.

Among them, Xie Yun and An Tiansheng relied on the special characteristics of their routes to a certain extent, while Liang Ruxin relied entirely on his own talent and enlightenment to reach this point after having a clear-cut direction to go in.

Under Gu Nan's arrangement, almost all the major high-end forces in the Divine Kingdom were mobilized.

Red Tail knew this meant that the focus of Gu Nan's subsequent plans would be in the World of Gods, so she quickly responded, "Yes, I will set off today."

……

The plans in the World of Gods were already underway, but establishing an intelligence organization from scratch would not happen overnight.

Fortunately, with the support of an experienced administrator like Red Tail and a group of powerful subordinates, the progress was quite fast.

Gu Nan had already completed the Second Round. It could be said that he truly had the ability to defend himself now. He no longer had to urgently level up like before and could stop and enjoy life occasionally.

For example… playing a few rounds of black cards.

"This game is very simple," Yu Lian said, having managed to defeat Gu Nan for the first time on the third day of their card battles.

Gu Nan didn’t mind and said with a smile, "Try to beat me three times in a row?"

After all, black cards was a card game with limited rules. For veritable top-tier powerhouses, their win rates were all basically about 50%. What really determined the outcome was luck.

However, compared to the former Sylvia, Yu Lian, who looked like a Daoist nun, was already extremely talented, and her progress was astonishingly fast.

After leaving the Divine Kingdom, Gu Nan ran to Void Grotto Heaven to play cards with Yu Lian.

Anyhow, he had nothing to do recently. He could only wait for the Unified Dao meeting in Void Grotto Heaven to be held, so he might as well come early and wait.

He already finished making arrangements in his Divine Kingdom, and once Red Tail gathered enough people on that side, he could automatically start a screening mechanism to select candidates who were qualified to inherit the Godhead fragments.

After losing two consecutive rounds, Yu Lian calmly pushed away the cards and pretended to get to business, "Zou Jiming said he wants to talk to you. Why don't you go meet him?"

……

Atalante.

In this war-torn continent, a large number of civilians were displaced, and a large number of believers were unable to receive protection during the war. Eventually, they lost their faith and became unbelievers.

Vivian was one such girl.

She worshiped the Goddess of Radiance ever since she was a child. Even though her god had little divine power, Vivian had always firmly believed that gods couldn’t be ranked purely by the strength of their divine powers.

Righteousness triumphed in the world; power was not the absolute truth.

Until one day… When war came, Vivian finally learned the harsh reality.

That day, the girl's town suffered a sudden attack. The evil invaders destroyed her home and massacred her relatives.

Originally, the young girl thought she was going to die too. Fortunately, a god with medium divine power performed a miracle, but he was unable to protect everyone and could only selectively protect a group of people.

Therefore, this god’s believers naturally became the first batch of protection targets, and Vivian was lucky enough to be selected as the second batch, but her older brother was not so lucky.

After watching her brother die tragically under the enemy's slaughter, the pious girl finally understood the truth of life.

There must be power first, then righteousness.

Now, after two months of hellish war, Vivian had grown from a young girl into a mature female mercenary.

Her fair skin turned dark, and she frequented the tavern. She burned the priest's robe that she had yearned to wear when she was young and put on a tight long coat. Her hands were already stained with blood.

She’d even completely forgotten all the divine arts. Now, she only knew how to kill people with a machete.

She became strong, brave, and even heartless, like a rose covered with thorns. Only in the dead of night would she recall the helplessness of her loved ones as they died, and she would crave power even more.

Until one day, a mysterious voice rang in her ears.

"Do you want power?"

"Do you want to protect your everything?"

"Do you… want eternal life?"

This voice seemed to be torturing Vivian's soul, and she could not go against her heart. ‘Of course I want it! Power! Give me more power!’

When such thoughts fell, Vivian felt her vision go dark, and her consciousness seemed to fall into a drowsy state.

When she woke up next, the girl carefully opened her eyes, only to find that she was in a jungle, with some people nearby and a small sign not far away.

It’s just that the style of the houses here was very strange. It seemed to be different from any kind of civilization she knew. Even the text on the nearby sign was made of unfamiliar square-shaped characters.

"What… does this say?" Vivian stared at the sign curiously.

"Are you new? There are common language interpretations next to it," a voice sounded near Vivian as a tall woman slowly walked over.

Vivian quickly turned her head to look, and sure enough, she saw familiar words that clearly read:

[Welcome to the Greater God Dimension]
