Chapter 444

The Evil Alliance's army fell silent for roughly three to five minutes before advancing once more.

This time, leading the charge was a legion of divine envoys summoned by the gods of the Fear Pantheon, numbering close to twenty thousand.

Twenty thousand divine envoys was already a staggering number, but compared to the endless army of more than two hundred thousand from before, this mere force of twenty thousand looked somewhat shabby, giving the impression that the evil gods had run out of steam.

Yet on Sui Xiong's side, Morani and Renard—the ones who had truly led armies into battle—both frowned.

Compared with the legion of divine envoys Sui Xiong had swallowed in one gulp last time, this force was smaller in number, but its quality had improved by far too much.

A divine envoy's strength depended partly on its own power and partly on the god behind it. At critical moments, gods could empower their divine envoys with divine power, causing their strength to surge enormously.

The masters behind the previous batch of divine envoys had mostly been weak divine powers or lesser divine powers. The strongest among them had only just barely stepped into the rank of intermediate divine power. When a real battle began, the blessings they could grant their divine envoys were extremely limited. So although they had been numerous, they had really been nothing more than cannon fodder. Let alone elite divine envoys capable of matching weak divine powers, even outstanding mortal Legendary powerhouses could have slaughtered their way through such a formation, putting on a one-man-army performance.

But the masters behind this batch of divine envoys were, at worst, intermediate divine powers, and quite a few served the God of Fear directly, a powerful divine power. Their numbers might not have been great, but
