Chapter 545: Catherine’s Good News
Above the Ice Prison Abyss in the far north of the Totem Continent, countless white lights resembling meteors suddenly appeared and scattered across the surrounding icebergs. A flash of light suddenly lit up the middle of an ice peak, after which the figures of ten people appeared out of thin air. These ten were none other than Donald and his group of ten.
“Finally out!” Carlisle stretched his tall, strong body and exhaled deeply.
Although the Ruins of Oblivion were vast, they exuded an oppressive atmosphere. Due to the fall of many true gods and the existence of divine tombs, the space was filled with an omnipresent sense of decay and ruin, making it uncomfortable for the outsiders who were still alive.
The White Mountain God had been waiting for them for a long time. He stepped forward as soon as Donald and the others appeared.
After emerging outside, Donald first scanned the surrounding icebergs. Seeing that their group was practically the most complete among those who had returned, they naturally attracted countless gazes. So, with a wave of his hand, he released Loki, the higher-ranked god.
As soon as Loki appeared, the pressure from his status as a mid-tier god immediately spread out, causing shock on many faces.
True gods had astonishing memories and naturally remembered the number of people who had entered the Ruins of Oblivion before. With such a powerful mid-tier god appearing now, it was obvious that he must have come from within the ruins!
No matter where this powerful true god came from, it was clear that he was now on the same side as that group. This meant that the power of the true gods belonging to the Celt and Ciri United Kingdom would grow even stronger—far stronger than before.
A mid-tier god already held a significant place among the gods of the Pantheon! With the power of high-tier divine artifacts at play, they had enough confidence to exploit loopholes in the rules and bring Loki and Sphinx out.
Moreover, since the rules of the Ruins of Oblivion currently had no true gods in charge, it made such an act of smuggling even easier!
As for the main world’s rules rejecting god-tier powerhouses, Sphinx, being a puppet creature and only a semi-god, was not as strongly rejected by the main world. As long as she didn’t cause excessive damage to the world’s environment, she remained within acceptable limits.
Logi, as the true form of a supreme god, descending to the main material world should inevitably trigger a severe reaction from the rules—after all, the immense power contained in the true form of a supreme god could instantly collapse an intermediate material plane. However, Logi, this deity from another realm, is not a deity of faith in this multiverse but rather exists somewhere between a deity of faith and a law god, akin to a totem god without geographical restrictions. As a result, the rejection he faces is significantly reduced, effectively lowering his divine rank by a great deal. Moreover, the true gods of Logi’s world often descend to the main world to participate in mortal life, so they generally possess secrets to conceal their powers. This means the suppression he faces in the main world is similar to that of newly risen gods like Donald and Charlie. Although there are restrictions, they can still move freely for now. From this, many true god-level powerhouses present suddenly realized that this intermediate god, who was not part of the totem god lineage, must be either extremely powerful, having reached the level of an intermediate god, or a newly risen god, which explains why he is not rejected by the main world. In light of this, the true god factions that had initially planned to test Donald and the others abandoned their plans. With the presence of such a powerful intermediate god, there was no way any single individual present could defeat him; even the nine lower totem gods like Mount White could at most achieve a stalemate against him. Moreover, Mount White himself possessed the strength of another intermediate god! Thus, many factions and allies with connections to Donald stepped forward to greet them cordially. As a result, the iceberg where Donald and the others were gathered gathered over a hundred demi-gods and true gods, forming the strongest force present. Even those factions with grudges against the Celts, despite their reluctance, completely gave up the idea of causing trouble and left in frustration. After building rapport with various factions, everyone wisely took their leave quickly. Finally, Donald, having regained some of his strength, waved his hand, and a teleportation light enveloped them all. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared from the iceberg. Back at the great temple in Golden Sand City, they discussed their experiences, after which Donald proposed dividing the spoils.
He first took out the spoils belonging to the God of the Red River and the God of War Hammers. These included precious, immortal, god-tier plants from the Temple of Quetzalcoatl. After that, there were the spoils belonging to each of them individually. Of course, among those rare plants, only multiple varieties were taken out; Donald had already preserved seeds of all species. These unique, rare, immortal plants, which were one-of-a-kind across the entire multiverse, were to be cultivated in his own divine kingdom as a unique resource for trading with the gods. Everyone was very satisfied with Donald’s distribution method. As for the treasures from Loki’s and Sphinx’s divine tombs, those were Donald’s own spoils, especially since the original owners were still there! So no one brought up the matter. What they had obtained already far exceeded their hopes before setting out! “Prince Donald is too generous!” After learning about what had happened over the past six months from his two subordinates, the God of White Mountain was highly satisfied with Donald’s handling of things. Having met Loki, a powerful true god whose strength rivaled his own, the God of White Mountain felt even more justified in having allied himself early with Donald, this promising rising star. After discussing further cooperation plans with the totem god allies led by the God of White Mountain, Donald bid farewell to Loki and the other powerful lords and returned to Dalaran. Although there was the true god Xizier in charge, and he had handed over the divine artifact Heart of the King to him before leaving, the safety of his domain should be assured. But having not returned to his domain for half a year, Donald was actually a bit worried about his family and subordinates! When they teleported back to the lord’s mansion, they were surprised to see the old steward Cord and William both looking overjoyed. “Has something good happened?” With this thought in mind, Donald was about to call William over to ask when he saw the old steward and William coming together to deliver a shocking news to their master. One of the ladies of Dalaran, the female countess Catherine, famous across the continent for her business acumen, was pregnant!
