Chapter 515: The Divine Kingdom’s Trial

To date, Donald’s faith in the God has given rise to two major avatars: the Nature Guardian Avatar and the Demon Hunter Avatar. The latter is a fusion of elements from the will of natural wrath, the realm of balance, and the heritage of the Demon Hunter hero class. Strictly speaking, it differs from a mere avatar, being more of a combination of a clone and an avatar. After separating the demon transformation from his core being, although this avatar remains part of him, Donald feels much greater clarity both in his soul and divine body, with even signs of further advancement in his divine rank!

Donald understands that this phenomenon arises because by creating avatars, he has fully transformed the Demon Hunter heritage granted to him by the Book of Truth into part of his divinity, eliminating any burden on his soul’s essence. While the Demon Hunter is a powerful class that can reach demi-god status, for Donald, who has already surpassed that level, it was merely a redundant burden. Now that it has been fully integrated into the divine system, with no more hindrances in his soul, he naturally feels much lighter.

As the true God of faith establishes the divine kingdom, the true form of the Law God oversees affairs from outside. Donald’s first avatar, the Nature Guardian, takes on the task of governing the kingdom and establishing its rules. To govern the kingdom, it is necessary to control time acceleration for the creatures within it. Outside, one day corresponds to ten times as much time inside the kingdom, except in its core areas. With such a fast pace of time, the reproduction and evolution of creatures in various regions accelerate significantly. The number of creatures that were once 100,000 a year ago has now multiplied several times. Although not many have evolved to the strength needed to serve as guardians of the kingdom, a few have already reached silver or gold levels, while the number of lower-tier creatures has also surged, greatly enriching the kingdom’s ecosystem.

As for the dragons in Donald’s most valued Dragon Kingdom, after ten years of development, hundreds of dragon eggs have been laid, and dozens of dragon hatchlings have successfully hatched. What delights Donald the most is the birth of descendants from Nozdormu and the legendary Silver Dragon Princess Natalie. After the successful holding of the Pureblood Dragon Gathering, Nozdormu, the Bronze Dragon King, captured the Silver Dragon Princess’s heart with his formidable strength and graceful demeanor.

Entering the vast world of the Dragon Kingdom, a realm exclusive to dragons, two newly infatuated dragons could no longer resist their physical desires. Eagerly, they sought a remote mountain range to engage in passionate physical encounters. The consequences of their encounters were astonishing—as they intensified their activities, the entire mountain trembled, and their roars could be heard for miles around. With his strong physique, Nozdorm conquered the proud silver dragon mother. After several battles, Princess Natalie, the silver dragon, became pregnant, and after three years of gestation, she successfully laid five dragon eggs. Although the eggs had not yet reached hatching time, the growing vitality within them showed that these offspring of divine and legendary dragons possessed far greater potential than ordinary young dragons. Moreover, unusually, all five eggs were viable—none were dead—which was considered quite productive among dragons! This was certainly due to both parents being powerful legendary dragons, one of them even possessing divinity, as well as Donald’s deliberate protection. Donald hadn’t intended to spy on the two dragons’ encounters; this was his divine kingdom, and everything within it was under his awareness. He had high hopes for Nozdorm’s dragon offspring, so he naturally paid attention. Yet he never expected such a significant disturbance to arise from such an act, leaving him both embarrassed and secretly pleased. Shortly after giving birth, the two dragons, who had pledged their love to each other, couldn’t resist their passion and resumed their intense breeding activities. Donald deliberately blocked out sight of that area—watching once was for research, but watching over and over was simply perverse! “Do it! The more you do it, the more excellent dragon offspring will be born. That way, my dragon army will grow stronger!” While the Dragon Kingdom was thriving, other regions faced problems. The issue wasn’t that these creatures couldn’t develop rapidly; on the contrary, they were developing too quickly. Creatures like rabbits and wild boars, which had high reproduction rates, could give birth several times a year, with each birth producing at least three to five offspring, and sometimes even seven to fifteen. Even under the threat of predators, their numbers continued to increase by dozens of times each year. These lower-tier creatures, introduced by Donald into his divine kingdom, were the most numerous. As they occupied the bottom of the food chain, they also drove up the population of predators in the upper levels.

In the divine realm of the Nature faction, the environment is naturally suitable for the growth of most creatures. Even with dragons and some powerful monstrous beasts preying on them, there is still an abundance left over. “If this continues for a few more years, these lower-tier creatures will reach terrifying numbers, becoming a plague like the rabbits in Australia in my past life, consuming vast amounts of the divine realm’s living resources. Eventually, recovery and production will fall short of consumption.” The Nature Guardian, who is responsible for governing the divine realm, is a part of Donald, and his way of thinking is exactly the same as that of his true self. After foreseeing this potential threat, he came up with a special solution. In fact, many rulers of divine realms have tried this method before—opening their realms to creatures from non-opposing factions in other dimensions. However, most gods do this to exchange the resources of their realms for those unique to other dimensions, tasks that don’t need to be handled by the gods themselves, as their followers and dimension-hopping merchants can take care of them. Since Donald isn’t currently seated on a throne, no dimension-hopping merchants have come to him, but he can still open his realm to intelligent beings from the main world. As long as they stay in the realm for a limited time, those who enter will not be affected by its rules. Initially, Donald thought of opening up a portion of the realm’s space, using its environment and creatures to allow warriors in his territory to train and practice, so that they could return with resources and materials. This would help alleviate the rapid increase in the number of creatures in the realm. Acting on this idea, Donald immediately issued orders through his external avatar, the law god, to William, the administrative official in charge of his territory, and Uther, who had become a demi-god and one of the highest-ranking generals in his territory. Upon receiving Donald’s divine decree, the armies and armed forces of Dalaran immediately set out, entering the realm in batches for training.
