Chapter 427: The Sea God is dead
```
"Sea God? Impossible!" Remiel exclaimed, "The Sea God is an ancient deity, how could he have fallen?"
"Where exactly did you come from, you heretic?" Fira demanded sharply.
"Fira, Remiel, whether I am the new Sea God or not, let's wake up the Sun God and let him prove it." Du Ge smiled nonchalantly, "Reliel, Nobu, load these criminals onto the chariot. They are the Sun God's subordinates, so let the Sun God judge them..."
Nobu and Reliel picked up a pile of blood-stained wings from the ground and began loading them onto the Sun God's chariot.
"I know you're not the Sea God. What exactly are you trying to do?" Miller frowned, looking at Du Ge.
"I want to be the God King." Du Ge waved his hand, signaling Nobu and Reliel to stop. He looked at the broken angels present and said, "The ancient gods have been sitting idle for too long. It's time to clean them out and create a new divine realm."
"You want to be the God King?" Miller was stunned. "I admit your power is formidable, but you can't possibly be a match for the Sun God."
"Miller, how do you think I got this divine power?" Du Ge laughed, "Why do you think the Sea God fell?"
"You killed the Sea God?" Avery's pupils dilated in shock."The Sea God passed away peacefully," Du Ge smiled.
With that one sentence, all the archangels fell silent. It was an unverifiable piece of information, but everyone knew that the man before them would not give them a chance to verify it.
"I know you don't believe me, but the Power of Poseidon doesn't lie," Du Ge said. "Archangels, you have two paths before you. First, follow me to kill the slumbering Sun God. You will still be archangels because I need people to help me manage the divine realm..."
"And the second?" Fira asked.
"The second is, of course, to kill you all. Reliel and I will find a way to kill the Sun God, then recruit new people to help me manage Boderuna," Du Ge said, looking around at everyone with a smile. "You know I have the ability to do that."
The archangels fell into silence once more.
"It's a simple choice, isn't it?" Du Ge said. "I know choosing between two options can be difficult, but listen to how the Sea God's subordinates died. It might help you make your decision."
"Didn't you kill them?" Avery snorted.
"It would be boring if I had killed them," Du Ge said, a smile crossing his face as if recalling something amusing. "I judged the Sea God's messengers just like I'm judging you now and gave them a choice. But those fools tried to wake the Sea God to kill me and cover up their crimes..."
Several archangels shifted slightly, clearly having the same thought.
Du Ge noticed their subtle movements and smiled, "In the end, when they woke the Sea God, they couldn't say a word. They all scrambled to confess their sins before him."
The archangels' faces changed drastically. After being controlled, they couldn't say anything but confess.
The thought of waking the Sun God only to confess before him made the archangels look at Du Ge as if he were a true devil.
"That's right. The awakened Sea God didn't ask for any explanations. He just killed them all with a wave of his hand," Du Ge said with a mischievous smile. "They died miserably. At that moment, their biggest regret must have been not choosing to cooperate with me!"
The archangels' faces grew even darker.
"But fortunately, I'm a righteous person. I killed the tyrannical Sea God and avenged everyone," Du Ge said, his gaze sweeping over the crowd. "Fira, Miller, I wonder if you're willing to bet that the Sun God's temper is better than the Sea God's..."
Fira and Miller exchanged glances but remained silent. Making this decision was incredibly difficult.
"Is your loyalty to the Sun God preventing you from making a decision in front of others?" Du Ge smiled. "Then I'll ask you individually. Remiel, you and Reliel are twins, so you go first!"
With a wave of his hand, Du Ge's Sea God martial soul enveloped Remiel, along with his wings, and they disappeared from sight. Moments later, he set Remiel down in a dense forest.
"Sir, I am willing to cooperate with you," Remiel said hastily after being set down.
"Remiel, you've made a wise choice," Du Ge smiled. "But even if you hadn't agreed, I would have reattached your wings and brought you back. As long as you return unharmed, no matter what you say, they won't believe you're not my ally."
Remiel's ingratiating smile froze on his face. He swallowed hard, "I am sincere."
"I know," Du Ge nodded. "Remiel, bear with the pain. I need to reopen your wounds to reattach your wings. I'll use a healing technique to stabilize them, and when we return, let Reliel use holy light to heal you..."
...
When Remiel returned unharmed, the remaining archangels could no longer maintain their composure. They didn't even wait for Du Ge to take them aside individually; they all rushed to pledge their loyalty.
By this point, no one cared whether Du Ge's story was true or not.
In their minds, the Sea God had fallen, and no one cared about Du Ge's true identity anymore.
Nobu was in awe, learning yet another trick from Du Ge.
...
After reattaching all the archangels' wings, Du Ge and his group boarded the Sun God's chariot and entered Boderuna.
The Holy Land was filled with mountains, rivers, and lush forests.
The forest was home to various exotic fruit trees and rare terrestrial birds and beasts. Angels were picking fruit, playing with birds and beasts, while most of the laborers in the fields were ordinary people without wings.
However, the ordinary people in the Holy Land were different from those in the mortal world. Their faces showed no signs of sorrow, only happiness and contentment.
As the Sun God's chariot flew by, both angels and ordinary people would stop and pay their respects.
The Holy Land was a scene of joy and harmony.
The most prominent feature was a towering mountain.
Atop the mountain stood a golden, glittering temple. The angels around the temple were of a higher rank, mostly four-winged angels, with a few seraphs occasionally seen. They were either on duty or training, serving as the main combat force in the Holy Land.
The Sun God's chariot drove to a crystal-clear pond behind the temple, known as the Holy Pool.
It was said that the holy water in the pool was transformed from the Sun God's blood, capable of healing all injuries and removing all negative effects.
Reliel dismissed the guards around the Holy Pool and invited Fira and the others to disembark. All the angels immediately plunged into the pool to heal their wounded bodies.
Since they had already decided to kill a god, they needed to recover as much as possible. Du Ge had tormented them too much.
In the Holy Land, Du Ge's divine sense was still effective. He could feel the abundant life force in the water, but the holy water did not belong to any element, and the Power of Poseidon could also affect it.
After pondering for a moment, Du Ge revealed his martial soul and combined it with the holy water.
As a result.
He felt the Power of Poseidon rising.
It felt similar to when he was cultivating the Concentration Technique.
The holy water directly affected the Power of Poseidon embedded in his soul.
Du Ge's original martial soul was just a virtual image.
But after combining with the holy water, the martial soul showed signs of becoming solid.
Divine power?
Du Ge was stunned.
The Power of Poseidon was the only good thing he had brought out of the Simulation Field, aside from his skills. In this world of gods, he felt the Power of Poseidon rising again.
Perhaps, divine power was the key to opposing Pan-Universal Entertainment.
...
The seraphs soaking in the pool watched as Du Ge's martial soul became more solid under the nourishment of the holy water. Except for Reliel, who knew Du Ge's background, the other archangels immediately dismissed their doubts about his Sea God identity.
The power within him was indeed the genuine Power of Poseidon, not just the strength of a martial soul!
Du Ge had truly killed the Sea God.
At that moment.
They suddenly felt confident about killing a god.
...
Nobu, stunned by the miracle happening to Du Ge, quickly borrowed Du Ge's ability and revealed his own Sea God martial soul.
But.
His martial soul showed no change.
The treatment of a bastard child is different.
Nobu pouted in disappointment, mentally complaining as he retracted his martial soul and plunged into the Holy Pool, letting the water nourish his body.
