Chapter 152

Looking at Joyce before him, he frowned and said:

"What does he want to get from me?"

"I don't know."

Joyce shook her head, smiling faintly: "But—"

"He ordered me to kill all your Velociraptors, and deliver every single corpse to him."

"Velociraptors!"

Li Yue's pupils shrank sharply.

A flash of insight cut through his mind.

The ruin!

It was that ruin!

Originally,

the God of Hail must have sold the location of that ruin to this Death God!

And this Death God—

after exploring that ruin,

very likely believed—

that the ruin contained some great treasure.

On those Velociraptors!

So,

he was willing to find his two neighbors, offer them massive aid, and have them kill him!

"It seems,"

"you've already understood."

Joyce wore a faint smile.

Her skin was pale, and with the red battle armor she wore, she looked like a female war goddess.

"There's one more question."

Li Yue took a slow breath.

He looked at Joyce before him:

"That Death God must have made you swear an oath before the City of Gods, right?"

"If so, why are you telling me all this?"

"And why—"

"do you wish to become my vassal god?"

Joyce extended her left hand, slowly opening it.

In her palm,

lay two shattered, hazy gems.

"This left one is the Gem of Deception, capable of deceiving a true god."

"I didn't swear an oath—I merely deceived that Death God."

"This right one is the Gem of Prophecy, capable of predicting one death."

"And I—"

"predicted that if I waged divine war against you, even with three legendary bone dragons—"

"I would still perish in your hands."

She spoke openly, with no concealment.

"... These are precious gems."

Li Yue blinked, astonished.

Actually / Unexpectedly

There are such treasures?

Deceive a true god? Predict one death?

I've truly learned something new!

At the same time,

he greatly admired Joyce's decisiveness.

The prophecy of the Gem of Prophecy was certainly correct.

Even if in the believer war,

Joyce had utterly crushed Ghuush in victory,

yet—

as a half-god of the Fourth Transformation,

he possessed two divine offices, both reaching the Second Layer.

In terms of strength—

even if all his believers perished,

he could still slay a Sixth Transformation half-god!

How much more so a Fourth Transformation half-god?
