Global Deities: My SSS-Rank Talent Lets Me Evolve Everything

Chapter 93: Comparable to the Foundation Establishment Realm

The Elf Race are all master archers; every arrow strikes the enemy’s weakest point, and not a single arrow is wasted.

“Shields up, group of five, charge for me!” Li Chengze began to issue a Divine Decree to direct the battle.

Before the believers could even get close to the Moon Well, the mountains here began to tremble.

Countless tree roots burst out from the ground, wrapping directly around the soldiers’ ankles and dragging them into the soil.

Woo-woo~ Deep in the forest, the earth shook and the mountains swayed as an ancient tree, the size of a small hill, slowly moved outward.

After Li Tianheng saw clearly the source of the commotion, he instantly activated his Mad Blood talent.

“Mad Blood buff activated, run away immediately! Save as many as you can! This is a B-rank defensive structure, the Treant King. Even believers at the Foundation Establishment realm might not be its match. Relying on numerical superiority is meaningless!” Li Tianheng shouted to explain.

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately sent down Divine Decrees to command their believers to flee.

“Where do you think you’re running, invaders! Die!” The Treant King actually spoke in a human voice, and countless tree roots and vines converged from all directions.

“Help me!”

“My God, save me.”

“So painful!”

The believers below screamed in agony.

The strength of those vines was immense, crushing their armor and bones completely.

After one battle, fewer than a million believers remained.

When the battle ended, the Elf Race deep in the forest bowed to the Treant King: “Many thanks for your assistance, Lord Treant.”

“I like it here. Let us protect our home together.” As the Treant King finished speaking, its massive body began to move slowly back into the depths of the forest.

Outside the forest, the expressions on everyone’s faces were equally dramatic, even bordering on disbelief.

“Brother Tianheng, this Treant King… how much is it worth?” Li Chengze looked at his own broken troops and asked with curiosity.

Such a powerful defensive structure was essentially a dimensional strike against them right now; that was strength comparable to the Foundation Establishment realm.

“Five billion Faith Points.” Li Tianheng took a deep breath.

Upon hearing this, the students present were, aside from admiring Yang Fan’s financial resources, mostly speechless.

As a Divine Being and still a high school student, it is basically impossible to encounter a situation where you are invaded.

Why on earth would you set up such a defensive building in your Divine Kingdom?

Five billion Faith Points could buy so many resources to improve the strength of one’s believers, or be used for long-term investments to increase passive income.

The least logical thing to do is to buy defensive structures.

Someone who didn’t know better would think you were fighting a Divine Kingdom War!

Li Tianheng turned his head to look at Luo Bing and asked: “What are your thoughts?”

“I have no interest in plundering a classmate’s Divine Kingdom assets. Right now, I’m just curious about how far his Divine Kingdom has developed.” Luo Bing looked toward the core of Yang Fan’s Divine Kingdom, feeling eager to try.

“With the Treant King there, we can’t get past.” Li Tianheng shook his head.

“We can just go around it.” Luo Bing pointed to the grass at the edge of the forest.

“The journey would be at least three or four times longer, and the defensive structures along the way…”

“So what if the believers all die? They’re just Tier 2 creatures; do you still care about such things?” Luo Bing said in a cold tone.

Hearing this, quite a few people nodded.

“Sister Bing is right. After that incident with the poison bees, I wasn’t planning on bringing these believers back to my own Divine Kingdom anyway. It’s better to let them expend their remaining value.”

“I’m also curious about just how far Yang Fan has pulled ahead of me.”

“I used to think Yang Fan was just a bottom-tier, unscrupulous scumbag. I didn’t expect his strength to be this formidable. It really was a case of being blinded by a leaf.”

After witnessing the danger level of Yang Fan’s Divine Kingdom, everyone’s assessment of him rose to a new level.

As expected, as long as one is strong enough, there will naturally be great scholars to argue on one’s behalf.

Even the negative opinions everyone held about him from the midterm exams faded quite a bit.

“Let’s go, let’s go see together.” Li Tianheng was full of fighting spirit.

At the core of the Divine Kingdom, Yang Fan couldn’t help but ask: “Can the Treant King go out and fight for me like the believers?”

“No. Although the Treant King is classified as a defensive structure, it is actually a neutral creature. If placed in a suitable environment, it can automatically guard the Divine Kingdom. However, it has no allegiance; even one’s own believers will be attacked if they enter that forest.”

“No wonder it only cost five billion Faith Points despite being so strong.” Yang Fan sighed.

The power just displayed by the Treant King, if it appeared inside the City of Technology, would likely be enough to sweep through all his believers.

“Reporting to Master, given the current situation of the Divine Kingdom, there is actually no need to purchase too many defensive structures. Since the funds provided by Master were so generous, I could only plan from a long-term perspective and purchase more expensive structures.”

“Understood. Next up is this final big guy.” Yang Fan said, looking at the massive cannon newly installed on the city wall.

“B-rank City-Destroying Cannon, from a Tier 2 Mechanical Divine Kingdom. It cannot be moved, requires one month to charge, and one shot is enough to destroy a city. Value: 2 billion Faith Points.”

Sensing that Li Tianheng and the others were still carefully probing and moving forward, Yang Fan directly removed the defensive structures along the way to speed up their progress.

Along the way, because they were no longer threatened by defensive structures, Li Tianheng and his group marched much faster.

In less than a month, they had bypassed the Elf Forest, and the City of Technology was directly within their line of sight.

The massive City of Technology spanned from north to south; it was impossible to see the end of it with the naked eye.

Ten thousand meters in the air, Penglai Island was wreathed in ethereal mist, resembling an earthly paradise.

And directly below it was the City of Technology, emitting a silver-white glow with flowing, shimmering light.

Li Tianheng turned to look at the deep, quiet forest behind him, and then looked at the modern-style metropolis in front of him; a sense of incongruity arose in his heart as well.

“Sister Bing, Brother Tianheng, what path is Yang Fan taking? Is he preparing to go in the mechanical direction?” A voice came from the crowd.

Gods who take the mechanical path are extremely rare, and most of them come from big cities because this path burns through too many resources.

Not to mention ordinary people, even a great family like the Luo Family might not dare to support their family’s prodigies in taking this path.

Luo Bing explained: “It’s just a city. The cities produced by the Mechanical Divine Kingdom have excellent living environments. Letting believers live in them can significantly increase the birth rate.”

As a prodigy of the Luo Family, Luo Bing naturally had a more rational view.

She also had a City of Technology in her Divine Kingdom, but it was much smaller than this one of Yang Fan’s.

Even though she was a First-Class Genius of the Luo Family, with a monthly family subsidy and additional funding from her father, what she had seen and heard during this time made Luo Bing feel that Yang Fan seemed to be much wealthier than she was.

“Where on earth did this guy get so many funds?” Luo Bing was filled with curiosity.

In the Academic Affairs Office of the First High School, Cao Wang finally perked up a bit.

“Director Yang, they are finally going to engage in battle. It’s just a pity that Li Tianheng and his group’s forces have been depleted too much. Even with the Mad Blood talent buff, it won’t be enough.”

“They won’t be able to put much pressure on Yang Fan!” Cao Wang said regretfully.

Yang Wanli laughed: “This kid is a bit mysterious. I want to see just how strong his believers are overall!”
