Chapter 434: Losing Divine Power Will Lead to Death
"The current king happens to be that old-fashioned guy Tyr...
As you probably know, Tyr's mental state has been unstable since the end of the Year of Troubles.
He once swallowed Heim's Eye of Observation, and it is said that he had a fight with Lathander among the original gods - you know, they are both representatives of the lawful good camp, and their relationship was so good before that they were like wearing the same pants.
And at that time, it was Tyr who led us gods to escape from the astral realm."
Leila closed her eyes. The divine power in her body was suddenly stripped away, causing her body to almost collapse.
However, her tenacity as a deity allowed her to hold on and not fall down, but her current sitting posture was really ugly.
"Haven't you always been very curious about why I am stronger than you even though I have been in this world for less than ten thousand years?
That’s because the human royal family can separate the divine power from the descendants of the original humans.
This is also the reason why I found Ivan at that time.
By absorbing these humans, we can regain the power that was suppressed by the plane.
Don't look at me like that, you human pervert.
To the gods, this is the same as you catching angora rabbits to fill your stomach and get food.
Worldly food will not sustain our lives.
If the gods who descended to the world did not have enough faith, they would become weak and die of old age, just like ordinary humans...
We can’t just sit there and watch our strength fade away and then slowly die…”
After saying that, she turned her head to look at Iris. The tall elf goddess was looking at Leila in surprise.
“I really envy you, a group of native gods, Iris.
As long as there is one believer among you, you will have endless life.
But we, the God Ascenders, are not so lucky..."
There was a sudden hint of madness on Leila's face, but it quickly turned into helplessness.
Losing the last bit of strength means that for her, a human god, her time is running out.
Maybe next month, maybe today, her consciousness will simply dissipate.
“Okay, I don’t want to die, but Tyr and the others don’t seem to want me to live.
If what I'm saying now can help you beat the other guy or just disgust them, I think I'll feel better."
Alvin saw that on the face of this human goddess, besides the sweat beads hidden on her cheeks, there were some tears overflowing from the corners of her eyes.
Even Xiling, who had always been a little hostile towards her, felt a little uncomfortable seeing her like this.
Of course, if Leila was still of her astonishing size and looked like a female public enemy at this moment, her experience would probably be completely different.
"If you lose your divine power, you will die?
Then I am not - no way, no way, not to the point of..."
Alvin looked at Iris with some surprise, and was frightened by the faint smirk at the corner of Iris's mouth.
Seeing Ivan staring at her, Iris raised her eyebrows and said slowly.
“Yes, the body of a god-ascending being is still that of a mortal creature.
Divine power can help them stay fresh - that is to say, without divine power, their bodies will quickly decay and wither, turning into lifeless pieces of meat...
For you, divine power can help your body stay young forever—
But you have nothing to worry about, according to the human lifespan, you are still a cub;
Even if he lost his divine power, he still had another seventy or eighty years to live... at most he would lose his right hand.
As for this fraudulent girl... you know."
Realizing something, Alvin immediately used his new ability on Leila.
A pink little man appeared in the middle of Ivan's palm, his body showing a translucent halo, and his heart area flickering, much brighter than the meridian light strips in Ivan's own body.
After seeing Ivan's new abilities, Leila immediately changed from her weak appearance back into the girl with a teasing face.
"It's boring. Why would Corellon teach you these useless skills... and bully us juniors..."
After complaining a few words, Leila still looked powerless and collapsed to the ground.
Iris on the side couldn't bear to watch it anymore. She kicked Leila with her toes again, crossed her arms over her chest, and looked at her with disdain like a bad girl who was bullying.
"Stop pretending, you've been discovered!
If you have this much free time, why not use it to practice with this kid?"
Leila opened her mouth slightly and pointed angrily at the little man in Ivan's hand.
“Are you blind?
Or have you lost your common sense after becoming the Lord of the Dark Elves?
Even if I still have enough divine power in my body, the power that supports me to travel in the main plane has been drained away!
Look, there is only a little bit of power left for me in the heart area!"
“Stop pretending, deceitful girl.
You have more power in your body than Alvin - well, let's not compete with that pervert.
Your divine powers are not much different from when I first came to the world.
Xiling, you stay here and continue to practice with Leila, I'll go find that damn old man Corellon..."
After saying that, he grabbed Ivan and walked towards the stone house where Corellon was without looking back.
Fraud Girl Leila rolled her eyes.
If she wasn't so weak and powerless, she would have jumped up and given Iris, who had been picking on her, a good beating.
A certain useless young man from Blue Star hasn't come to his senses yet.
He was dragged by Iris, stumbling with one foot deep and one foot shallow, looking very embarrassed.
"Slow down! Iris, slow down!
Hey, hey! Even though I have some magical powers in my body, my physical fitness should still be the same!
Why are you walking so fast? Can you please consider us humans of normal height?"
Iris grabbed Ivan's right hand and exerted force, throwing the human in front of her.
"Stop talking nonsense here, something serious has happened, understand me!"
The rebellious princess of the elven pantheon leaned close to Ivan's ear and spoke in a very low voice.
“The group of human gods that came to the world with Leila used some unknown method to share the divine power they had collected—the energy from the so-called original humans.
With these powers, they can restore their strength to the level of the Astral Realm period.
But only Leila's original divine power remained in her body.
This trickster goddess was right, she was abandoned.
This means—”
Before he could finish his words, a tall shadow covered the two people who were whispering.
Corellon put on the hollow armor again and looked at the human goddess sitting on the grass in the distance with serious eyes.
"This means that the group of human gods who came to earth are going to declare war on us."
