The Doomsday Lord: Starting as a Insect Queen-Chapter 1120 - 397: Temporary Divine Descent Technique

Somewhere in the world, within the Pale Church of the Priest

An Outer God appeared, and the Priest dared not linger longer.

Teleporting across vast distances, he did not stop at the new divine defense line but directly followed the coordinates he subconsciously deemed safest in his mind, bringing numerous True Gods back to his church.

Although the escape appeared somewhat frantic, not a single True God blamed the Priest for the decisiveness in his retreat.

They all clearly saw the Outer God carrying a tree towards them earlier, which was akin to a horror movie for them.

There's no need to reiterate the combat power of the Outer God among them, the memory of it instantly defeating three True Gods remains fresh.

Even the foundation of their surprise attack this time was predicated on the assumption that the Outer God wouldn't intervene.

In so many days of battle prior, the Outer God indeed never appeared along the defense line, seemingly just as the Priest mentioned, reaching the 8th Rank combat power necessitated being near that giant tree.

They assumed the Outer God couldn't leave its descent location.

Only after confirming the Outer God couldn't interfere did they dare to take the initiative to attack.

And the Outer God indeed did not break this rule, avoiding distance from that giant tree, but instead brought the giant tree out.

This move from the Outer God completely disrupted the foundation of all their plans.

It's precisely because of this move by the Outer God that after hastily returning to the safe zone to rest and recover from the battle state, all the True Gods gathered anew in the church.

The atmosphere was particularly oppressive.

"'Deceit'...

Did not successfully resurrect...

I just checked once, only the divine traits of 'Deceit' returned successfully, but there were no signs of resurrection.

It's very likely at the last moment, the Outer God acted against him..."

The Priest said solemnly, while also feeling a bit fortunate that at least the divine traits successfully returned and were not taken by the Outer God.

Otherwise, they would've suffered a huge loss this time.

Taking out a set of divine traits of "Deceit" and "Gate," the Priest asked.

"How are your harvests?

I only had time to reclaim the divine traits of 'Gate,' but due to the appearance of the Outer God, 'Loophole' was really too late..."

The Priest carried a hint of regret in his eyes, keeping silent about the divine traits he harvested from the Shadow Insect Race.

When he acquired it, it was just as the mechanical constructions of the Outer God began their fire.

Aside from him, all True Gods and even the Aliens were likewise cared for, with the cover of the artillery fire, his forced seizure of the divine traits went completely unnoticed.

At this moment, these True Gods are unlikely to go and ask the Outer God, check against each other, and find out a divine trait has disappeared.

His aim was to use this mixed divine trait himself, if directly taking out this divine trait, sharing becomes inevitable.

Whether he refuses the distribution or proposes to take the divine trait, he'll inevitably expose his intention.

Apart from this divine trait, he certainly needs traits from other True Gods and will have to act against other True Gods.

Once this intention is revealed, other True Gods will never allow it and will be on guard against him.

They might even act against him for safety, leading to infighting.

Causing the other two factions to decisively choose another option.

This is a result he doesn't want to see.

In that case, it'd be better to hide it from the start, wait until he successfully merges, gains power beyond standard True Gods, then forcibly slay a needed True God, seize divine traits.

At that point, once it is a fait accompli, even if the other True Gods don't wish to see it, they can only accept this outcome.

Might even actively support his plan.

Fortunately, as the first step of this plan, other True Gods have no objections against him.

Several True Gods with gains each presented their harvested extraordinary traits, making the Priest a bit disappointed.

Most of their spoils this time were just "Angel" level divine traits; only two reached True God level.

One came from "Fallen," and the other from "Dusk."

The former was the divine trait he riskily seized this time, though he doesn't need more to advance further.

"What should we do with these divine traits?"

A True God asked first; these "Angel" level divine traits were their usual disputes before the Outer God's arrival.

Even if they can't use them personally, employing them as equipment or weapon remains a decent choice.

Whether the combat faction wants to maximize their use against the Outer God, or the other two factions have specific intentions, no one wishes to give them up.

"According to the agreed plan, as long as recovered divine traits can yield a True God, we should promptly train one to rejoin the combat power against the Outer God.

But here, aside from divine traits of 'Gate' and 'Deceit,' the rest falls far short."

"Divine traits of 'Gate,' leave it to the family of 'Gate,' have them quickly select a suitable Angel to merge and achieve True God.

'Deceit' has no church of its own, we'll find a suitable Angel from your hands to attempt ascension.

As for the remaining ones... return them to their respective churches?"

The Priest deliberately proposed, yet someone immediately objected.

"Even if returned, it'd only foster an Angel, better to let us True Gods use them to enhance combat power, maybe reclaim more divine traits next time."
