Chapter 1233 - 981: Chaos

At this time, a disturbance was starting from behind, with some people arguing with those on the opposite side, thereafter causing an eruption of Divine Power.

"Stop it, all of you! What are you doing?" the presidents of both sides shouted simultaneously.

The initial disturbance ceased, yet the sides still confronted each other uncompromisingly.

"Let’s all take a few steps back. None of us are going to back down today, so let’s negotiate a reasonable solution," one suggested.

Both presidents spoke thus.

Under the command of their respective presidents, people from both sides stepped back simultaneously.

Meanwhile, Long Yi secretly asked Little Zi and Ai Lin, "Exactly how much Divine Status do you each posses?"

Ai Lin and Little Zi each reported a specific number.

"So, if we combine all our Divine Statuses, those people theoretically shouldn’t stand a chance against us," Long Yi said.

"That’s awesome! Brother Long, what do you plan to do?" Little Zi, thinking Long Yi planned to ask for all the Divine Statuses, eagerly asked.

"I plan to catch them off guard," Long Yi said.

Catching off guard wasn’t meant for the people in front of them. The ones Long Yi claimed were not opponents were not the ones present, but those he identified as the true culprits behind the scenes.

"What do you mean?" Little Zi asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Now, every Divinity Holder from that planet has mobilized, and two individuals possessing 300 times Divine Status wouldn’t possibly ignore Little Zi’s presence. If I were someone with 300 times Divine Status and heard about a sudden emergence of someone with 200 times Divine Status like Little Zi, I definitely wouldn’t let it slide," Long Yi explained.

"Do you mean those two people with 300 times Divine Status are hiding in the crowd?" Ai Lin asked, eyes wide.

"Yes, that’s exactly what I mean," Long Yi confirmed.

"Then we..." Little Zi also seemed to become tense.

"Actually, if we were to fight any single association alone, we wouldn’t be at a disadvantage. What I fear the most is both associations teaming up. I feel that the two associations’ hidden backers must be connected, so right now, our first step must be to spread chaos. We absolutely cannot allow them to unite," Long Yi said.

In fact, things were already developing in the direction Long Yi feared. The presidents of the two associations were negotiating and seemed close to a compromise. For two inherently incompatible presidents to reach an agreement so easily, even without a dispute, made Long Yi absolutely skeptical of a hidden catch.

Long Yi absolutely couldn’t let them coexist peacefully, but how could he create chaos?

Of course, he would start with the people from the opposite side.

The same man who had provoked earlier was still watching Long Yi, who stared back unyieldingly. However, the opponent was somewhat restrained and no longer looked as agitated. Long Yi, on the other hand, was all smiles, his face devoid of any disdain and purely happy.

Behind that man, Ai Lin had quietly followed. She used her Divine Power to create a drug, freezing it into the size of a needle, and flicked it hard into the man’s leg from behind. This was only a slight pain, barely noticeable for these powerhouses, but the effect of this substance was shocking.

The drug Ai Lin had just created was a byproduct of Long Yi’s various research efforts, which primarily caused a person to be unable to suppress their emotions or would greatly enhance them. For such a hot-tempered individual, it would inevitably amplify his aggressive mood.

And indeed, it did.

Shortly after the injection, the man’s demeanor completely changed; his gaze and posture started getting much more aggressive. Seizing the moment, Long Yi provocatively re-engaged with his gaze. Before long, the man bellowed and sent a Magic missile empowered with Divine Power smashing into Long Yi!

Long Yi’s expression immediately turned to shock: "Ah!"

With a cry of alarm, Long Yi was struck by the Magic missile and fell straight to the ground.

Upon the hit, a moment of silence fell over God’s Association, followed swiftly by an explosive chaos. Every member of God’s Association near Long Yi erupted with Divine Power, engulfing Magic missiles desperately bombarding the opposite side. Some from the opposite side were hit by the sudden Magic missiles, falling down immediately. Meanwhile, countless Divine Power-infused Magic missiles flew from Hand of God’s side as well, smashing their way through.

Up front, the two associations’ presidents were symbolically negotiating under the guidance of a mysterious person, and unexpectedly, the back had already started fighting! How could this happen!

The presidents of both associations immediately rushed out, shouting for everyone to stop, but things had already reached this point, where everyone was blinded by rage. Could they really be stopped just because they were told to? Especially when the presidents of both sides appeared, adhering to the strategy of capturing the king first, even more magic missiles flew toward the presidents.

Despite the efforts of the people around them to protect them, the presidents of both sides were not injured, but things had indeed reached an extremely dangerous point.

The magic missiles roared constantly, people fell, and some stood up to rejoin the fight after receiving aid. At this moment, neither side cared much, as the two associations have always been like fire and water, always treating each other as mortal enemies in their internal propaganda. Especially when members of the associations encountered each other in the universe, they would mercilessly steal each other’s Divine Status. Therefore, both sides hated each other to the bone, and now that the battle had started, how could it possibly stop?

At this time, the couple behind the scenes were also hidden within the two associations. They originally thought everything would proceed according to their plan, but they had clearly underestimated the degree of animosity between the two sides. Once the fight started, how could there be any possibility of stopping?

What to do? Should they directly reveal their three hundred times Divine Status to suppress them? This would certainly be effective, but wouldn’t they then be directly exposed?

Wait, never mind that for now, since you all decided to fight, we can’t blame us! Today, you will all die here! Then, your Divine Status will be ours!

Realizing this, the couple immediately issued orders to the presidents of the other two associations to attack each other with full force!

Upon receiving the order from above, the presidents also realized what was happening, even more frightened due to the attacks they’d suffered, they fully embraced their roles, "Attack with all your might! Kill them all!"

Thus, the battle fully began.

What were Long Yi and Ai Lin doing?

At the start of the fight, Long Yi had ’died,’ and Ai Lin also fell in the first counterattack by the God’s Association. However, the fallen Long Yi was not idle; utilizing his absolute suppression by Divine Status and employing the power of rocks, he sneaked underground and secretly sucked out and devoured the Divine Status of those knocked down. Since both sides were engaged in a chaotic battle, no one realized this at the beginning. But as the battle dragged on, more and more people fell and did not stand up again, which caught some people’s attention. After all, people with Divine Power should recover slowly from their injuries unless killed instantly. However, those skilled in healing who revived the fallen found them to be bereft of their Divine Status, and the situation immediately became serious.

Those people originally wanted to raise an alarm, but how could Long Yi and Ai Lin let them have the chance? They knocked them down with sudden strikes, and then their Divine Status was stolen.

Ai Lin didn’t directly participate in the stealing of Divine Status but kept an eye on the battlefield, informing Long Yi where to move underground, while Long Yi unceremoniously absorbed all the Divine Status that came his way.

The couple behind the scenes didn’t rush to absorb Divine Status, since they were still disguised as ordinary association members. They scanned the ground intermittently, pleased at the sight of those fallen, a scenario that, in fact, they had foreseen and even dreamed of for a long time, but had never found an opportunity. After all, waging war in the name of an association without a proper reason would be questioned, but now was the best opportunity, as both sides were already seeing red and could not stop!

All these Divine Status are mine! Mine!

The couple shouted loudly in their minds.

However, before long, they realized something was amiss. Those who fell seemed to take too long to stand back up, which shouldn’t be the case! Being hit by magic infused with Divine Power would cause great damage, but if not further harmed, Divine Power would definitely heal them quickly!

But now, whenever someone fell, they truly and solidly fell, with almost no one standing back up! At first, it wasn’t very noticeable, but as the number of fallen increased, it became apparent that many members from both associations were lying on the ground like this.

"What’s going on?" The man gave the woman a signal, and they both quietly checked a person who was lying on the ground, only to discover his Divine Status had completely vanished!

Yes! It had really disappeared!

It was unbelievable! Could it have vanished into thin air?

Among those still standing, it was astonishing to find that a person’s Divine Status had truly disappeared right before their eyes!

How could this happen?

Something strange is going on...

No! There’s nothing strange, there must be someone secretly plundering the Divine Status!

The woman placed her hand on someone, trying to figure out exactly what was happening. At that moment, a young woman shouted not far away: "Ah! What are you doing!"

With already not many people left on the battlefield, and each side maintaining a deadlock, neither could do much to the other for a while. So, this scream involuntarily attracted everyone’s attention,

The woman was a bit dazed, as she didn’t think her actions were inappropriate until she saw the young woman who had screamed escaping from her, mingling back into the crowd. She then realized that her actions were indeed very inappropriate.

Behind her lay a group of people who had lost their Divine Status, and in her palm lay another unconscious individual who also had his Divine Status stolen. This sensation was as if she were indeed stealing Divine Status!
