Reverend Insanity: I Had Already Become an Overgod Before the System Activated

In the heart of the mountains, within the Dark Castle surrounded by watery peaks.

Destruction Overlord Uthred and Blood Peak Sovereign God Pash sat within the main hall. However, only the avatars they had condensed were present here.

"This Lota..."

Uthred was also quite surprised. "His reaction is truly extreme."

Although Fallen God Angels were humanoid weapons of the Overgods, they were ultimately things that could be born at any time through the Angel Rebirth Pool. Especially Fallen God Angels below Twelve-Winged, of which there were many.

Almost every year, some fell in various battles, yet no Darkness System Overgod had ever cared.

If an Overgod cared about such "trivial matters," that Overgod would be far too busy.

It was not merely an empty phrase that Overgods stood high above all else. One had to know that even if an Overgod's children were seriously injured, as long as they were not killed, the Overgod would not do anything to the attacker.

Of course, this was merely an unspoken understanding among Overgods. If an Overgod truly intervened, no one else would step forward to stop them. At most, they would become a topic of conversation for a time. However, Overgods had lived for far too long and all cared about their reputations. No one wished to become gossip.

In the past, whether Fallen God Angels or Light God Angels, quite a few had fallen. There had even been battles that affected the entire Angel Race, with many Twelve-winged Fallen God Angels perishing. Even then, Lota had never shown himself.

Yet this time, no one knew what madness had seized Lota. Although the Four Divine Beast Family had provoked them first and killed several Fallen God Angels, even if he wished to punish them, there had been no need to directly send out Commander-level Fallen God Angels.

The power of Christine's techniques could not be concealed from the Overgods.

Those six Fallen God Angels were all Commander-level. Otherwise, they could not have unleashed a Technique with such power. This move would kill even other Commander-level experts if they encountered it.

Although Commander-level Fallen God Angels were also Twelve-Winged, they were entirely different from ordinary Twelve-winged Fallen God Angels. The gap between them was like the difference between ordinary Seven-star Devils and Asuras.

By sending out such Fallen God Angels, Lota clearly did not intend to let this matter end so easily.

Moreover, those Fallen God Angels could only have been sent out by Lota. Otherwise, Fallen God Angels of that level would not casually reveal themselves. Even when he had sought to borrow Twelve-winged Dark God Angels from Lota in the past, he had failed.

Whether because of their numbers or some other reason, it was clear that Lota attached great importance to these Twelve-winged Fallen God Angels.

"Perhaps Leiding and the others' previous attitude angered Lord Lota."

Pash spoke with a smile as well.

When Lota and Leiding's group appeared at Ice Snow Mountain, although he had not shown himself, he had paid attention to what happened. Naturally, he knew the full story.

It was precisely because he knew the full story that he had told the Destruction Overlord about what had happened on the Shadow Continent of the Dark God Realm.

For a Dominator, this matter might perhaps be useful as well.

However, he also felt some admiration for Leiding and the others. They truly dared to provoke a Dominator like this. Although it was not direct provocation, such actions in secret were bold enough.

He did not dare entertain such thoughts.

However, Leiding and the others were originally at the Dominator level. It was possible that they simply did not fear Lord Lota.

Perhaps, aside from the Rule Overlords, Leiding and the others truly had no need to fear the other Law Overlords too much. On the contrary, to a certain extent, the other Law Overlords needed to remain sufficiently wary of them.

Uthred did not speak immediately. After pondering for a moment, he slowly shook his head. "This way of acting does not resemble Lota's previous style."

As the most mysterious of the eleven Dominators, Lota was not merely the oldest. More importantly, the other Dominators seemed to know only what he wanted them to know.

Ever since the Sovereign God War, Uthred had always felt this way. However, there was no way for him to learn more about Lota.

Pash, on the other hand, did not quite understand Uthred's thoughts. Although he was also among the first batch of Overgods, he was ultimately only a Lower Sovereign God and knew little about matters involving Dominators.

"Forget it. No matter what Lota wants to do, the friction between him and Leiding's group does not seem like a bad thing now."

Uthred said, "During this period, pay closer attention to the Four Divine Beast Family. Inform me immediately if anything changes."

"Yes."

Pash's tone became more formal.

He had learned some things about the Dominators long ago. During this period, he had been secretly assisting the Dominator.

After Pash left, Uthred looked toward the horizon and murmured, "Lota, what do you want by suddenly making a move?"

Ever since he had competed with Ofu twice and lost both times, he had been searching for a way to become stronger. However, regardless of the method, none could greatly improve his current strength.

Thus, he had set his sights on the Four Divine Beasts.

The battle between the Four Divine Beasts and the Water Element Overlord Mith countless years ago had drawn his attention to the Four Divine Beasts' Ultimate move.

It was already extraordinary for the Talent Divine Powers of four Lower Sovereign Gods to fuse, yet it could even threaten a Dominator. Such terrifying amplification of power exceeded any Technique he knew.

Even his Talent Divine Power—Soul Prison—did not possess such amplification.

If he could master the move of Leiding's group, even if he could not achieve such amplification, as long as it could amplify his power a hundredfold, he would have enough confidence to defeat Ofu.

However, mastering this move was no simple matter.

This move was, after all, the Talent Divine Power of the Four Divine Beasts. To use a Talent Divine Power required the consumption of blood essence and Soul Power.

Especially since he needed to study it, the blood essence required would not be one or two drops. It was possible that even a hundred drops would have no effect. Under such circumstances, could he expect Leiding and the others to provide blood essence? That was basically impossible.

As for killing the Four Divine Beasts himself?

He was confident he could do it, but once he did, he would likely face the combined forces of the other three Rule Overlords.

Although the Sovereign God Agreement did not divide Rule Overlords and Law Overlords into two levels, all Overgods had tacitly separated them into two distinct levels.

Even if the other three Rule Overlords did not join forces, if he truly acted, he would not have a sufficiently stable environment for research.

Therefore, he needed someone to step forward and kill the Four Divine Beasts to obtain their blood essence.

Or, after being killed by the Four Divine Beasts, he could find an excuse to step forward and kill them. At that time, no one would have anything to say.

And someone with that level of strength had to be at least a Dominator.

The first person he thought of was Augusta.

Whether in terms of strength or certain conflicts, Augusta was the best candidate.

However, making Augusta step forward would require some means.

Now, the "friction" between Lota and Leiding's group suddenly showed signs of deepening. It was not impossible to make use of it.

Leiding and the others were rather unlucky as well.

Although Lota did not possess a Supreme Artifact, and many believed that he might be somewhat weaker than Augusta, Uthred did not believe that Lota lacked a trump card.

Taking a step back, even if Lota fell, it would not necessarily be a bad thing for him. He could directly act then and wipe out the Four Divine Beasts. The result would be the same.

However, he could not place all his hopes on Lota. He also needed to continue with Augusta's side.

The Dark God Realm.

Darkness Prefecture, Phantom Mountain.

The Dark Castle was also called Phantom Castle by some.

At this moment, within the main hall, six figures stood separately along the two sides of the hall. Four men and two women, all dressed in black.

The six people stood in the hall, chatting casually.

"It has been a long time since the Dominator was this angry."

A woman in a long black dress spoke.

Clearly, Christine's slaughter of Four Divine Beast Family members on the Shadow Continent was no secret to them.

The only thing that shocked them was that the Dominator had actually dispatched Twelve Commanders of Commander-level Fallen God Angels.

Combined with the Angel Battle Formation, perhaps few besides Paragon High Gods could stop them.

"The Four Divine Beast Family went too far as well. They actually killed Fallen God Angels on the Shadow Continent so recklessly. It is only natural for the Dominator to be angry. In my opinion, teaching the Four Divine Beast Family a lesson is far from enough."

Another man snorted. Clearly, he was also dissatisfied with the Four Divine Beast Family's actions.

Or rather, this man was dissatisfied with the Four Divine Beasts. Without Leiding and the others' tacit approval, how could the Four Divine Beast Family dare cause trouble in the Dark God Realm like this?

Did they truly think the Dark God Realm was Hell's Blood Peak Continent?

Hearing the man's words, the others were somewhat helpless as well. The Four Divine Beast Family had indeed acted arrogantly this time. Deliberately surrounding and killing Fallen God Angels on the Shadow Continent was truly bold.

"Erni, we still need to see what the Dominator intends to do next."

The woman from before spoke.

The conflict between Erni and Leiding's group had not begun just recently. During the War of Faith, Erni's son had died at the hands of a Four Divine Beast Family member. Even Erni himself had only been saved from the White Tiger Sovereign God Lius because the Dominator stepped in.

Although the Dominator had not acted personally, he had still stepped forward. Lius was alone, so he had no choice but to give up killing Erni.

Even without joining forces, each of the Four Divine Beast Sovereign Gods was extremely powerful. With their powerful bodies and Talent Divine Powers, even ordinary Mid-level Overlords might not be able to kill them.

Erni was merely a Darkness System Lower Sovereign God. There was quite a large gap in strength between him and Lius.

At that moment, Dark Lord God's Might appeared within the main hall.

Everyone looked toward the throne.

Lota's figure appeared upon the throne.

Seeing the man sitting casually on the throne, everyone instantly put away their other thoughts and bowed. "Greetings, Dominator."

"Enough. Sit."

Lota's voice rang out.

Then, with a slight wave of his hand, six specially made chairs appeared within the hall.

"Thank you, Dominator."

The six people behaved respectfully before taking their seats.

"I summoned you here. I assume you know why."

Lota did not beat around the bush. His tone showed no fluctuation. "Speak."

Erni was the first to speak. "Dominator, the descendants of Leiding's group slaughtered Fallen God Angels in the Dark God Realm. They have shown absolutely no respect for us Darkness System Overgods. Leiding and the others must give us an explanation for this matter."

"Erni, the Four Divine Beast Family is indeed guilty of killing Fallen God Angels, but saying they have no respect for us Darkness System Overgods is somewhat excessive."

Upon hearing Erni's words, another man spoke. Then he looked at Lota and continued, "Dominator, punishing the Four Divine Beast Family will be enough. If we demand an explanation from Leiding and the others because of this, trouble will inevitably arise."

In truth, Fallen God Angels being killed was not a major matter. It was simply that the Four Divine Beast Family's actions were too deliberate, so it was only natural that they drew their attention.

However, it was merely attention. After all, this was only a matter among God-level beings. They would not say anything because of it.

Even if some Fallen God Angels were killed, it would not affect anything.

However, now that the Dominator cared about it, things were different.

"Hehe, I do not believe Leiding and the others were unaware of the Four Divine Beast Family's actions."

A female Darkness System Overgod spoke, her tone equally impolite. "The Four Divine Beast Family may not know what Fallen God Angels are, but do Leiding and the others not know? They indulged their clansmen in killing Fallen God Angels. Calling this a declaration of war against us would not be excessive."

For Overgods who had lived for so long, God Angels were not a secret.

However, at the God level, few knew what Fallen God Angels and Light God Angels truly were. They only knew that God Angels were powerful.

Otherwise, if they knew that God Angels were the Overgods' "humanoid weapons," who would dare kill them?

"Allison, your words are somewhat exaggerated, aren't they?"

The man looked at the female Darkness System Overgod and frowned slightly.

A declaration of war between Overgods was no trivial matter.

Such words could not be spoken casually.

Although he also agreed that the Four Divine Beast Family should be punished, he did not agree with dragging Leiding and the others into the matter. Doing so would make things even more troublesome.

For a moment, all six people spoke in turn.

They all knew that Lota had sent Twelve-winged Fallen God Angels to slaughter Four Divine Beast Family members on the Shadow Continent, so no one would say things such as Overgods should not interfere in matters between God-level beings.

The Four Divine Beast Family had angered the Dominator. It was only natural for them to bear the Dominator's punishment.

The only disagreement was over the severity of that punishment. Or rather, whether this matter should be extended to the Four Divine Beasts.

Because once it involved the Four Divine Beasts, this would no longer be a small matter.

"Enough."

Lota interrupted the argument among the six.

All six looked toward Lota. After discussing so much, the final decision still rested with Lota. No one in the Dark God Realm could defy Lota's orders.

"Starting today, dispatch Fallen Angels and purge all Four Divine Beast clansmen in the Dark God Realm."

Lota said directly.

There were quite a few Four Divine Beast clansmen in the Dark God Realm. Christine could not possibly act against every one of them, and Lota had other orders for her. Therefore, she only needed to wipe out the Four Divine Beast Family's powerful members in the Dark God Realm.
