Summoning Millions of Gods Daily, My Strength Equals Theirs Combined

”Your path has been too smooth in the past. This setback can be considered a good thing for you,”

Silas said.

He was no longer as furious as he had been in the grand hall.

Now he appeared exceptionally calm and composed, his mind wholly occupied with the suddenly rising Crossbridge Empire.

After all, he had once paid special attention to the lower realm of the Eura Continent.

According to previous intelligence, it was nothing more than a Savage Lands—how could a terrifying Divine Empire suddenly emerge from it?

”You may withdraw and rest for now,”

Silas dismissed Cillian.

A moment later, a thought stirred in his mind.

A figure of light quietly stepped out of the void, its aura overwhelming—a Sacred Radiance–rank powerhouse.

”Go. Thoroughly investigate this Crossbridge Empire.”

”Since the enemy has already revealed its fangs, their true strength is likely far beyond what we have seen.”

Silas issued the order.

”At once,”

Bold bowed deeply and melted back into the void.

Silas then turned and departed as well, heading toward a secret department that stood apart from the four ministries.

This was where Olympian God Mountain’s Tarot Masters, astrologers, and secret intelligence operatives gathered—one of the very foundations of Olympian God Mountain.

...

News of the Automaton Legion’s annihilation continued to ferment.

Calls for the deployment of the God Mountain Imperial Guard spread from the royal capital to the various provinces, the situation showing signs of spiraling out of control.

”It seems the Crossbridge Empire really struck Olympian God Mountain where it hurts,”

Golden-Plumed Gryphon sighed as he looked at the surging crowds of petitioners along the Cloudwood Province border.

If it hadn’t hurt, the reaction wouldn’t have been so extreme.

They had intended to crush others—only to be brutally crushed themselves. Such a reversal was unbearable for anyone.

”Still, after this battle, Olympian God Mountain should finally wake up.”

”Next, life for the Crossbridge Empire probably won’t be easy.”

”The situation in the Celestial Light God Realm is likely to change.”

”We should make preparations early as well.”

Golden-Plumed Gryphon gazed toward the direction of Unar Province, his eyes deep and contemplative.

...

Unar Province.

After the battlefield cleanup was completed,

Five hundred thousand sets of Automaton Legion divine-puppet constructs were seized in full and transported back to Ael Fortress.

A major part of the Automaton Legion’s power lay precisely in these constructs.

They were forged from mysterious metals, hundreds of meters tall, engraved with powerful law patterns. Their armor had been specially treated to be extraordinarily flexible—like metal war gods, imposing and awe-inspiring.

Once soldiers donned these constructs, they gained tremendous defensive power from the mysterious metals and law runes, and could even draw upon a trace of runic might, multiplying their combat strength.

This was a masterpiece that Olympian God Mountain took immense pride in!

Even Josephine, Lucio, and the others had openly praised their ingenuity upon seeing them.

Now that they had fallen into the hands of the Crossbridge Empire, they naturally became priceless spoils of war.

Five hundred thousand sets—just enough to equip a brand-new elite legion.

The Prologue Sage, the Lord of Sacred Light, and the others couldn’t help but laugh.

The Automaton Legion, worshipped fanatically by the citizens of Olympian God Mountain, had been annihilated just like that by the Crossbridge Empire’s forces—and even these terrifying weapons had become garments for their enemy.

One had to admit: when it came to legion-scale warfare, the Crossbridge Empire never seemed to fear any opponent.

They grew stronger with every battle—so strong that even the core members of the empire found it difficult to gauge where their true combat ceiling lay.

At that moment—

The personnel Lighton had arranged also arrived at Ael Fortress through special channels, having entered the Celestial Light God Realm.

”Greetings, Your Majesty the Empress! Princess Fiona! Princess Belinda!”

Lighton bowed respectfully.

Lucio, Philip, and the others looked at him with some surprise.

”You may rise,”

Josephine said, looking at Lighton.

”Is His Majesty still in the Divine Sanctuary?”

”His Majesty is in meditation, preparing for a breakthrough,”

Lighton replied.

”His Majesty has ordered me to deliver the Chaotic Artifacts collected from the Abyss Demon Realm to the front lines.”
