Chapter 388: The Final Boss Fight That Is Neither Passionate Nor Stirring
Aminos.
Children, I have returned.
Accompanied by the dizziness brought on by spatial teleportation, Yun Mu stumbled as she appeared before Brenna and the others.
"How is it over at the Beast God's side?" The moment she landed, she immediately asked Fen Yege, who was in front of her.
"See for yourself."
Fen Yege glanced at her, offering no explanation, and simply cast his gaze outside the Shanyin Cruise Ship.
Following his line of sight, a skeleton that blotted out the sky appeared before Yun Mu's eyes.
The Bishop, having successfully gathered all the God Bones, had finally assembled the Beast God's skeleton into a complete form; the only problem now was that he temporarily lacked sufficient energy to fully resurrect the God Bones.
However, resolving this matter was not particularly difficult.
"Heh." The Bishop sneered, and in the next second, the bodies of the Beast God Cult believers scattered throughout the Federation suddenly began to swell rapidly.
Before these fellows could even react, amidst the agony of their bodies being torn apart, the Beast God Cult believers exploded one after another, turning into a Scarlet mist of blood that drifted toward the direction of Feiluoka.
As the 'God' being worshipped, the Bishop, now possessing a complete physical body, could finally exert a portion of the authority that a deity should have.
These believers, who had signed a 'contract of servitude' upon joining the cult, would be his first wave of sustenance after resurrection.
"Ah~"
Countless blood-red mists shrouded the massive torso of the Beast God and were absorbed by it; the Bishop, controlling the body, couldn't help but let out a comfortable moan.
Power climbed continuously, and new flesh and blood gradually grew upon the skeleton; delicate buds of flesh writhed and intertwined, forming tough muscle. However, that was as far as it went.
Even after thousands of years of development, the number of Beast God Cult believers still could not be considered large.
To provide enough energy to fully resurrect the Beast God was clearly unrealistic.
"This is enough."
Feeling the endless power within his body, the Bishop clenched his fists in excitement.
At this moment, he had completely merged with the Beast God's body, and as for what to do next... Hmph, those mechanical bodies were not worth worrying about; the urgent priority was to quickly gather the flesh-and-blood energy to fully revive the body.
Once he was fully resurrected, he would then go and find trouble with those mechanical bodies.
As for dealing with those mechanical bodies now, it had no benefits other than wasting energy; after all, he couldn't exactly obtain flesh-and-blood energy from mechanical bodies.
If those mechanical bodies wanted to slaughter the Federation people, let them slaughter; in any case, even from dead people, he could extract the things he wanted from their corpses.
If that really didn't work, he would just slip away to another country... Of course, that was a last resort when there was truly no other way.
Although he said things like the gods were nothing to worry about, in reality, with his current power, wanting to contend against true deities was somewhat wishful thinking.
"Hehehe." Gazing toward the distant Council Building, the Bishop let out an insidious laugh.
The first step after becoming a god would be to take a bite out of those pigs in the Federation.
He could feel that there was a great deal of delicious sustenance over there.
Meanwhile, on Yun Mu's side.

【You are a lucky person favored by the gods, a legendary Brave; all deeds concerning you will spread rapidly in a positive direction within a short time.】
【Young Brave, take up your weapon and go create your own legend!】
Excellent Spirituality burned and sublimated; in a trance, Yun Mu felt the world before her eyes change its appearance instantly.
But she couldn't describe the specifics.
It was as if... the whole world had become more Soft in an instant, as if all things were conveying goodwill toward her.
Is this the effect of a 300% increase in Element Affinity!? Besides that, there were also the changes brought about by 【Intuition/Mind's Eye】.
"Are you ready?"
The call of the Sheep Spirit came from the bottom of her heart; Yun Mu came back to her senses, took a deep breath, and hurriedly nodded: "I am ready!"
According to their previous plan, after the Beast God was resurrected, it would be the turn of the Sheep Spirit, the Wolf, and herself to strike.
Only death could allow that corrupted Beast God to return to peace.
And at this critical moment, Fen Yege, Avala, and the Sheep and Wolf spirits had all acknowledged Yun Mu's title.
This undoubtedly added a greater success rate to the upcoming action.
"It is beginning." The Sheep Spirit's ethereal voice rang in Yun Mu's ears.
【【God of Hunting and Death???】's power is possessed within your body.】【Your level is temporarily increased to lv175 (Myth)】 A longbow, entirely silver-white and radiating vibrant vitality, appeared before Yun Mu; at the same time, her attire and her aura were undergoing drastic changes.
Her originally loose, pitch-black long hair shortened to a length that just covered her neck, and its color was transformed into the same silver-white as the Sheep Spirit.
A dark purple Mask, as if carved from obsidian, hung above her head; besides that, a necklace made of wolf teeth appeared around her neck.
"Oh oh!" Seeing this, the Wolf circled her excitedly.
This is the power of a deity... Not knowing how many times she had marveled at the power of deities, Yun Mu was currently experiencing that indescribable power within her body firsthand.
She stood barefoot atop the Shanyin Cruise Ship, her two emerald eyes silently watching the Beast God in the distance.
With this power, even if it were to shoot and kill that deity, it might not be impossible.
She thought to herself.
But then again, this outfit... it exposes way too much!
Yun Mu couldn't help but complain.
Shoulders, forearms, abdomen, thighs, bare feet... Don't they know it's still winter!? Although she couldn't feel the cold at all.
Hmm!? What is going on?
The Bishop, who was preparing to take the Council Building, suddenly felt a palpitation, as if they had been targeted by something dangerous.
Is it the Old Legion?
The Bishop recalled the various attacks suffered previously, but quickly ruled out this possibility.
Even that unknown, ultra-long-range bombardment with its instantaneous speed could not pose much of a threat to Him; if the Old Legion truly had an attack capable of making Him feel palpitations now, it should have been brought out long ago.
Moreover, He did not believe that those mechanical bodies alone could threaten Him.
So, was it just an illusion?
No, the Bishop trusted His judgment; there must be something dangerous nearby watching Him.
Looking around vigilantly, His gaze soon pierced through the Hallucination created by the Rift Generator and looked toward the figure standing atop the unknown aircraft.
This aura, it is a deity!
Damn it, how could a deity be here? The Bishop subconsciously wanted to flee, yet soon, He realized that the aura on Yun Mu was not quite what He had expected.
It seemed somewhat weak, incomparable to those old-school deities.
And His ability to erode deities was extremely strong; as long as He could assimilate and devour that fellow... The greedy thoughts in His heart could not stop rising; how could there be any reason not to eat this duck delivered to His mouth? The perspective shifts to Yun Mu.
When she saw the Beast God stop abruptly and then turn its gaze toward her, she knew that the other party had already discovered them.
"What should I do next?" she could not help but ask the Sheep Spirit within her body.
"No need to panic," the Sheep Spirit possessing her body said as such.
With her body moving autonomously without her control, Yun Mu gripped her longbow, holding a silvery-white arrow that had appeared on the bowstring at some unknown moment, and slowly drew the string.
Divine power of death gathered continuously at the tip of the arrow, while the Wolf, the Wolf, uh, He was watching the show from the side.
Bang! The Beast God noticed the movement on her side; the other party was currently striding toward her.
The speed was extremely fast, and every step taken caused the earth to tremble.
Yun Mu felt slightly panicked, because at the other party's current speed, she feared she would be caught up to before she could finish charging her attack.
The Bishop clearly thought the same, though He obviously did not know that inside the Shanyin Cruise Ship beneath Yun Mu's feet, there were two other deities present.
"Decay!"
Fen Yege did not hesitate to strike at the critical moment, and dense death energy surged from all directions, tightly wrapping around the Beast God's body.
Visibly, the Beast God running in the distance paused, and then, to Yun Mu's disbelief, the other party turned around and ran away without hesitation! As for the Bishop controlling the Beast God's body... Are you kidding? He would hesitate even against a weak deity before deciding to counterattack; with another "old six" deity present, shouldn't He run instead of staying to die? *Nigerundayo*~ However, it was a pity that although the Bishop fled very decisively, besides the God of Decay and Necromancy Fen Yege, there was another deity on Yun Mu's side.
【Avala Arena!】
The God of Wine and Victory Avala opened the Barrier, and the next second, both the fleeing Beast God and Yun Mu were pulled into the arena.
Clearly, this was the reason Fen Yege brought Avala along.
This guy had thought of every countermeasure from the very beginning! And facing the simultaneous targeting of three gods, as a Bishop of the Beast God Cult, controlling the Beast God's body that had not yet fully undergone Resurrection, it seemed He could only choose to give up the Struggle... right? No, absolutely impossible!
The Bishop roared hysterically inside the Beast God's body.
Having lived for so many years hiding in the light like a rat, He would never allow Himself to fall here!
The hope and joy of imminent success had transformed into Fear after the three gods appeared, and now it was driven by the Bishop as fuel for anger!
The Curse that was constantly eroding the Ether erupted suddenly; Avala's expression changed, and He immediately retracted the 【Avala Arena】! The mortal He was possessing turned deathly pale, which also indicated from the side that His state at this moment was not good.
After all, that was a Curse capable of infecting the Beast God with madness; just opening the arena to trap the other party was already very risky, and if not for His quick reaction, He might have been entangled by that terrifying Curse.
However, although Avala withdrew the arena, the distance between Yun Mu and the Beast God did not return to the state before entering the arena.
At this moment, the Beast God was less than 300 meters away from her! One step and He could reach out and touch her! Just as Yun Mu felt something was wrong, who would have thought that the Beast God before her would suddenly kneel on the ground in pain.
"Ahhhhh!"
Painful roars and words that could not be understood at all came from those not-fully-recovered vocal cords.
The Faceless Fool Airui Laya appeared behind the Beast God at some unknown time, and upon noticing Yun Mu's gaze, she quietly held up an index finger to her lips.
As a deity, the Beast God was obviously not affected by Airui Laya.
But the Beast God is a deity; what does that have to do with that Bishop whose soul is severely worn down?
Furthermore, what Airui Laya detonated was the emotional bomb she had planted long before the other party entered the Beast God's body.
Yun Mu looked at Airui Laya with gratitude, then continued to Focus her attention on the longbow in her hand—though not focusing wouldn't have made much of a difference.
After all, it was the Sheep Spirit controlling the body at this moment, not herself.
"Now is the time!"
The Sheep Spirit controlling Yun Mu's body gave a low shout, and the fingers gripping the bowstring released instantly.
Twang! The bowstring vibrated with a crisp sound, flying toward the Beast God's skull.
The Wolf, who had long been ready, roared at the sight, actually chasing after the arrow and flying while spinning around it!
The moment the arrow hit the Beast God's skull, it bit into the Beast God's neck! "Awoo!"
A dense Curse was released; the Wolf let out a mournful howl, then dove into Yun Mu's body without hesitation.
Hmm? Before Yun Mu could react, the Beast God's body, hit in the head by the arrow, suddenly disintegrated and shattered.
And the Curse contained within the body also mostly dissipated into the air along with the Sheep Spirit's Purify.
But a portion of it, following the Sheep Spirit's attack, spread directly onto Yun Mu!
However, Fen Yege had said that as a Chuanzhezhe, she would not be affected by those Curses.
Uh... why do I suddenly feel so tired?
Only then did Yun Mu realize that the Spirituality within her body had dried up, and even her mental energy had been completely exhausted.
Is this the price of wielding divine power with a mortal body?
Fen Yege, I ****... The last thought flashed through her mind, and Yun Mu could no longer hold on, fainting to the ground.
