Shepherding Humanity

The Evil God cannot be directly looked at and cannot be heard.

This was why the witches have been keeping their five senses sealed all this time, but from the violent rumbling of the ground, they could tell that the Evil God has been defeated. Finally, they could open their eyes and look at the true face of the Evil God.

"I can finally look…"

"I want to see what it’s like…"

"This is…"

They looked up in awe at the colossal giant whose form blotted out the sky. It was comparable in size to the Creator described in ancient Babylonian myths.

And yet, it had been destroyed in an instant, its body collapsing with the violence of a tsunami.

"What have we missed with our five senses sealed?" Ermin couldn't help but murmur, "In the span of a few breaths, the God of Wisdom has…"

"What would a mere disciple of Grantham know of the realm of the Gods?"

Medusa sarcastically commented. Her eyes were bright with passion and reverence. "What kind of forbidden divine art did he use? I can’t believe it! I couldn't feel any magic fluctuation at all, yet it only took him one move to disintegrate the Evil God! Meanwhile, we could not even look at it, could not even listen to it…"

Beneath the city walls, her witch ministers stood still as they blankly watched the collapse of the mountainous giant.

At this time, Xu Zhi used his drone’s speaker to deliver a horrifying piece of news: "Did you think that the Evil God would die with just this? Even now, it has started to reassemble its body."

What?

Ermin stood ramrod straight. "How can that be possible? It can still recover even after dying in such a fashion?"

But, she could see this truth with her own eyes.

Because of the players being “logged out”, the Evil God’s component body parts were scattered all over the place, but they were still full of vitality. The writhing and wriggling bloody pieces of flesh made for an extremely creepy sight.

Even after it’s been torn into pieces like this, its body parts are still alive, and each of them even have their own chaotic thoughts?

Such evil!

Such chaos!

Such perversion!

This mountainous pile of splattered flesh was too terrifying.

"Inconceivable!"

"I can’t believe it!"

"Mages are the seekers of truth and the keepers of knowledge, but the diverse biological makeup of this creature before us has overturned all that we know!"

In this world, no one has ever seen such a terrifying life form. Their shock when seeing such an unfathomable creature was great indeed.

Xu Zhi continued: "I don’t have the leisure to help you more than this. You must now work together as a nation to shred the Evil God’s body parts and scatter it throughout the world with wind magic, so that it won’t be able to quickly reassemble."

Scatter it, huh?

Medusa and Ermin solemnly looked at one another.

"We must hurry!"

This was no time for them to be hostile to one another. If they did not do anything about this situation, then they themselves would soon meet their end. "We must join forces. With us two Epic Witches, and the giant ‘Adolphus’ which is one of the Wonders of the World, we’ll have the prowess of three mighty Epics. Then there are also the countless Legends working under us. We’ll all work together!"

Boom!

Ten minutes later, countless mages have assembled. They flew up into the sky as one, and the combined spiritual pressure they released made the entire world tremble. Their magic dyed the heavens in a kaleidoscope of colors.

"Formless Tempest."

"Wind Barrier."

…..

Together, they raised a truly awe-inspiring storm.

Each Magic Academy and Sect used their school’s strongest forbidden spell to create terrifying hurricanes that shredded the Evil God’s scattered body parts and blew them in all directions. The razor winds converged into sky-spanning tornadoes that dispersed throughout the world.

This exhausted all their mana and they were left gasping for breath afterwards.

In the sky above, the radiant land of the gods was flying further and further away from their kingdom, slowly getting lost behind the clouds as it returned to the Eye of Heaven, ‘Gigantes’.

They looked up.

"The gods have left."

It was then that they once again heard the god of Wisdom’s quiet voice.

"The Evil God Cthulhu is one of the oldest and mightiest beings in this universe. It is an unfathomable existence that cannot be directly looked at or heard, and once ruled the stars in the Elder Days.

Because it had to break through dimensions to descend, it has been reduced to less than one-tenth of its original strength, which was why I could easily defeat it.

At this time, it has been scattered all over the world, and lies dreaming in a death-like sleep… But its body tissue will naturally converge to form the flesh islands of R'lyeh, which will absorb one another and reform its body. When this process is complete, the true Cthulhu, which is many times stronger than what you’ve encountered, will awaken from its slumber fully recovered, and usher in the Apocalypse!"

What! ! ?

Everyone looked up in incredulous horror as the land of the gods slowly disappeared into the sky.

This day, the day of the Evil God’s descent, would forever be recorded in the Magic World’s history as the day that the trajectory of the entire era irrevocably changed.

Millions of years later, when people blow away the dust from the ancient tome, "The Spear of Witchcraft", and flip through its crumbling pages, which carried the historical weight of long eras, they would see the beginning of "The Age of the Gods" recorded thus:

[In the 836th year of the Kingdom of Babylon, the Evil God Cthulhu descended, bringing death and despair to the world. The God of Wisdom led the land of the gods to vanquish it and scatter its body parts throughout the world, where they lie waiting for an opportunity to rise once again.]

…..

At the yard’s entrance.

Xu Zhi was once again sitting on his chair and eating his apple. After a while, his DJI Drone finally returned.

"It’s completely true that its current strength is only one tenth of what it would be at its peak. I’m not lying. After all, the Evil God has just entered and hasn’t taken in another gene yet. It still has a mortal body that cannot fly and cannot use spiritual power."

There was nothing wrong with what he had said. Once they’ve reassembled, they would indeed return in peak condition.

These cells that have been scattered throughout the world were all very cautious and hardworking. Each would train in secret, integrate a second gene, and individually grow stronger. Once they’ve reassembled, the Evil God would change on a fundamental level and become unimaginably powerful…

"If only they hadn’t been in the heartlands of the kingdom, I’d have used my high-power industrial fan to blow them away myself, and the girls wouldn’t have had to do anything."

"That would only further complete this world’s background setting. After this CG cutscene, those girls have now seen the land of the gods and have an idea of how powerful the God of Wisdom truly is."

His work done, Xu Zhi leisurely stood up and put away the DJI drone, then went to the kitchen to start cooking his meal.

…..

Meanwhile, in Spore Evolution’s game forum.

This thread had become the hottest thread in the forum in an instant:

"Big news! As soon as all the players left the Beginner’s Village, everyone got disconnected! WTF???"

In the eyes of those outside the game, it has been less than 10 minutes since the players entered, which was about enough time to go to the toilet. It felt like all of them had immediately logged out after entering the game, and were now posting like mad on the forums

"One person logging out is nothing remarkable, but for all of them to do it… Was it an instant party wipe?" Countless people were excited and hurriedly asked them what had happened.
