Chapter 176 The Day of Divine RetributionLater, in the records of the God-Forsaken Land, this day became known as the ”Day of Divine Retribution.”

From this day on, the tone of the world changed completely.

The originally gray sky became even more somber.

When the sun occasionally peeked out, it was nothing more than a pale orb of light that cast no warmth upon the earth.

The wind turned biting, the rain grew foul-smelling, and even the sound of waves crashing against the reefs resembled desperate wails.

All sorts of abnormal disasters occurred every day.

Some villages vanished overnight, leaving behind nothing but bloodstains.

Some towns suddenly erupted in riots, with people attacking each other as if they had gone mad.

Some caravans would be traveling along, only to never reach their destination.

Order was collapsing.

Farmers who had once been law-abiding began to take up weapons and rob their neighbors.

Believers who had once prayed devoutly began to question the existence of the gods.

Merchants who had once followed the rules began hoarding goods and driving up prices.

Since they couldn’t survive, they might as well take a gamble.

This mindset spread like a Plague.

The number of believers in the evil faction skyrocketed.

Those who believed in the Plague, slaughter, famine, and Death found that not only were they not punished, but they were actually living better.

The robbers obtained food, the killers carved out reputations, and the depraved found pleasure in their degradation.

The power of the evil gods began to surge.

Among them, the most eye-catching was the God of Depravity.

It set its sights on a special group: those corrupt old nobles.

After the apocalypse arrived, these nobles were the first to suffer.

They lost their lands, their power, and their status.

But their warehouses were still piled with wealth accumulated over generations.

Gold coins, jewels, grain, weapons—they had everything.

In their despair, they chose indulgence.

They held banquets, drank fine wine, played with women, and vied with each other to see who could be more depraved.

Since the world was ending anyway, they might as well enjoy the moment.

That was how the God of Depravity found its source of power.

Its followers infiltrated the circles of those nobles, fanning the flames and adding fuel to the fire.

The speed of depravity accelerated, providing more and more power.

In just a few days, the strength of the God of Depravity multiplied several times over.

Moreover, the God of Depravity held an inexplicable hostility toward the Good Faction.

Five gods of the Good Faction had already died at its hands.

The Good Faction had to react.

The God of Dawn summoned all the surviving deities to hold an emergency meeting.

”We cannot go on like this,” its voice remained gentle, but anyone could hear the suppressed rage within, ”We must contract our defensive lines.”

On the map, the green dots representing the Good Faction had decreased by a large margin.

The remaining ones were scattered here and there.

”Gather on these few islands.”

The God of Dawn circled several points on the map.

Those islands were geographically advantageous, easy to defend and hard to attack, and spaced moderately so they could support each other.

”Establish the Light Defense Line.”

After the meeting ended, all the gods of the Good Faction began to evacuate.

Believers, supplies, wealth—everything that could be taken was taken.

Anything that couldn’t be taken was burned, leaving nothing for the enemy.

Seven days later, the Light Archipelago was formed.

There were seven islands in total, arranged in an arc like a barrier.

Each island had at least five deities’ temples, and each island had solid fortifications.

Between the islands were shipping lanes set up by the Goddess of Storms, which only believers of the Good Faction could safely traverse.

The most critical part was the barrier.

It was jointly set up by the God of Dawn and over a dozen deities skilled in barriers.

A layer of transparent light covered all seven islands; from the outside, one could only see a blurry shimmer of light.

From the inside, however, one could clearly see the movements outside.

The barrier isolated the inside from the outside.

The Plague could not enter. Slaughter could not enter. Famine could not enter. Death could not enter either.

But the tug-of-war had only just begun.

The evil faction couldn’t get in, but they weren’t in a hurry to do so either.

Their strategy was simple: wait.

Resources within the Light Archipelago were limited, yet it had to accommodate so many deities.

They just had to wait for the believers of the Good Faction to dwindle and the deities’ power to weaken.

Once the Power Of Faith maintaining the barrier was exhausted, the barrier would naturally disappear.

The Good Faction was also waiting.

Waiting for the world outside the barrier to collapse on its own.

Those depraved, insane, and evil existences were destined for destruction.

They had no order, no rules, and no long-term plans.

The food they robbed today would be eaten by tomorrow.

The opponent they killed today would be killed by someone else tomorrow.

The world outside was destined for destruction.

Both sides were waiting.

Seeing who would give out first.

Zhou Zheng was different from the other deities.

Those deities were trapped inside the barrier and could only wait passively.

Their power came from believers; the fewer the believers, the weaker their power.

But Zhou Zheng held the Authority of Evolution.

Although it was only in its rudimentary form, as long as there were creatures in this world evolving, transforming, and climbing upward, he could obtain power.

Those struggling to survive in the ruins were learning new ways of living.

They were evolving.

Those who had not given up in despair were searching for new paths.

They were transforming.

Those persisting in the darkness were climbing upward step by step.

They did not know of Zhou Zheng’s existence.

They did not believe in him, did not pray to him, and did not sacrifice to him.

But every action they took provided power to the Authority of Evolution!
