Chapter 402: Chapter 356 My Number Is Not Important

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Melancholic and deep war drum sounds echoed.

The wind howled continuously.

Clad in golden armor, the human puppets carrying weapons charged out of the clouds and immediately saw a castle floating motionlessly beneath the dark void.

The floating city of the Destruction Council!

In an instant.

White light flashed across the world, enveloping thousands of human puppets.

"Defend!"

A human puppet shouted loudly.

The human puppets uniformly extended their hands in a hand gesture.

An unknown Immortal Technique instantly took shape, emanating from their hands and forming a protective shield that enveloped the entire team.

The white light could no longer penetrate.

— What a joke, each and every one of these human puppets was equivalent to at least seven or eight divines.

If it really came to blows, this battle would be tantamount to thousands of gods from the "Heaven and Earth" world joining forces to battle against the Destruction Council.

How could this battle be fought?

How could they possibly win?

"Charge—"

A human puppet yelled loudly.

Immediately, the human puppets split into several divisions, diving towards the Floating City.

At the same moment.

Deep within the Floating City, in a secret meeting room.

The council members watched the numbers skyrocket on the screen:

"Combined combat power: 3000 worlds."

"Increased."

"Combined combat power: 3021 worlds."

"..."

— The line of numbers continued to rise.

A gigantic shadow in the center spoke solemnly, "We miscalculated this time."

"Indeed, the strength of this world is so formidable, stronger than all previously destroyed worlds, and even 3000 times stronger. It’s unbelievable," another shadow added.

"Initially, hearing that the gods of this world had all reincarnated, we thought things would become easier, but who would have thought there would still be so many Guardian Gods," the previous shadow sighed.

The council members fell into a period of silence.

This world must hold astounding secrets, but the task at hand was not to explore them, but to overcome these protector gods.

"Do we still have an inside line in this world?"

"No more, the last one was Wu Xiaode. Everyone thought we would not need him anymore, preparing to take his ’End’. But who knew things would turn out like this."

Another awkward silence ensued.

Suddenly, one of the shadows spoke up:

"Don’t wait any longer, full mobilization."

"Agreed."

"Agreed."

"No objections."

The giant shadow from before asked, "Then who will hold the rear here?"

All the council members simultaneously turned their gaze towards a blond man wearing sunglasses.

— It was the man who sought to seize Wu Xiaode’s "End."

He was also the one who destroyed Sare Town.

The human puppets were looking for him.

"Abner— Whoever causes the trouble should clean it up. This time, you will infiltrate that world and kill Wu Xiaode. Any objections?" the giant shadow asked.

"None. I’ll leave at once," the blond man with sunglasses, Abner, said.

The giant shadow nodded in satisfaction and commanded:

"Good, full deployment."

No sooner had the words fallen.

The council members in the secret room disappeared one after another, with the giant shadow vanishing first.

Soon, the room was emptied of everyone.

The next second.

Shadow after shadow appeared within the Floating City.

As soon as the giant shadow appeared, a swirling vortex immediately materialized in his hand.

"All living things and all matter shall perish at my hand,"

he chanted.

An infinite black radiance spread from the vortex in his hand, piercing through all the human puppets in an instant.

— But the human puppets showed no reaction.

"Pathetic invaders, we are neither living beings nor matter," the leading human puppet said coldly.

"What exactly are you?" the giant shadow asked, bewildered.

The Human Puppet Leader did not speak, a hint of mockery emerging on its expressionless visage.

It raised its hands in a sealing gesture, calling out:

"Immortal Palace World!"

Illusory palaces and pavilions emerged behind the human puppet, where gods could be seen coming and going in the palaces.

Sensing something was amiss, the giant shadow grabbed the vortex in his hand and shouted, "All high-level council members with me, let’s break its Immortal Palace!"

"Yes!"

The numerous council members responded in unison.

As if realizing something, they all soared into the sky together.

As expected.

The next second, the Immortal Palace World materialized into existence, hanging high in the void above.

The Human Puppet Leader commanded, "All Level 3 forged human puppets with me, the rest attack their city."

"Yes!"

The human puppets responded in chorus.

For a moment, the forces split into two groups, with the more powerful human puppets flying up towards the Immortal Palaces.

The remaining human puppets charged toward the Floating City, clashing with the lower-level council members and apprentice council members.

Let’s not mention the battle in high skies for now.

Even just the battle within the Floating City saw the human puppets overwhelming their adversaries.

The power of destruction was indeed formidable, but there were many human puppets. They could simply swarm up and directly chop down an apprentice council member with mediocre strength.

Then came a conundrum.

"Hahaha, I know you’re powerful, but after my death, my ’End’ will become uncontrolled. It will release its power to destroy everything to its heart’s content!"

A dying council member laughed maniacally as he tossed a ball of magma into the air.

The council member was killed by the human puppet’s magic.

The magma instantly turned into an empty abyss.

From that abyss emanated thousands of fiery balls, shooting erratically in all directions.

The human puppets were knocked down in droves, and when they stood up, they found the abyss spewing fiery balls again—

It was like a machine gun, continuously firing lava-filled fireballs, indiscriminately striking every target.

The essence of destruction clung to the fireballs, and each hit would knock the human puppets to the ground.

— Quite a troublesome ’End’!

Overwhelmed, the human puppets were forced to fallback and form a defensive array.

"Who has a solution?"

One of the human puppets called out loudly.

Its companion answered:

"All Level 3 forged human puppets have gone to the Immortal Palace. We might not be able to—"

Before the words were finished, a human puppet jumped out from the darkness.

"Fellows, cover me—I can handle this thing!" shouted the human puppet.

The others turned their heads just in time to see a human puppet they had never seen before up in the skies.

"Are you one of the human puppets created by that divine spirit?" asked one of the human puppets.

"The Queen Mother of the West!" replied the human puppet.

"Why have we never seen you before?" another human puppet inquired.

"Nonsense, I’m a human puppet specially made by the Queen Mother of the West. I’ve always been by her side, rarely going out. You think you can see me that easily?"

The human puppet said haughtily, with its chin up.

The human puppets exchanged glances.

It indeed had the craftsmanship of a human puppet, but—

"Can you really deal with this ’End’?"

A human puppet asked with concern.

The human puppet pointed to its chest—

On its chest were two lines of text:

"Human Puppet; Special Appearance by the Queen Mother of the West;"

"Cure-All for Nonconformists."

The human puppets immediately began to investigate with their hand gestures.

How strange—

On the human puppet’s body was indeed the mark and contract of the Queen Mother of the West!

Of course, they didn’t know that the entrustment from the Queen Mother of the West to Wu Xiaode was implemented through the wish wall of the Book of the Dead, but they could still detect the connection.

There was no mistake!

But—

One of the human puppets stepped forward and touched the two lines of big characters on its chest.

"Your ink seems to be still wet..."

It said, puzzled.

The human puppet replied impatiently:

"Quit the nonsense! I’ve painfully turned down several advertising offers to be here—aren’t you going to cover for me?"

On the outskirts of the formation, several more human puppets were struck down.

It seemed that the apprentices of the Destruction Council had stabilized their position and were starting to think of counterattacking!

With no choice left, the human puppets chorused:

"Protect the Heavenly God!"

Nearly a hundred Guardian Skills all fell upon Wu Xiaode.

His spirits lifted, and he exclaimed with excitement, "Brothers, for my safety, charge forward!"

In the battle formation across the way, the human puppets launched a frenzied counterattack.

Taking advantage of this, Wu Xiaode soared into the sky, heading straight toward the chaotic void hole that was shooting out wildly.

"Number One, Number Two!"

He called out loudly.

The two angels, already unable to contain themselves, burst out immediately, hugging the wildly firing hole and shifting it inside the Book of the Dead.

Wu Xiaode was startled.

I thought you had some sort of containment method, but you’re just manually moving it!

He immediately waved his hand, releasing the Silent Demon Mist to conceal the two women along with the End.

"Kill that human puppet!"

The apprentice councilors on the opposite side reacted and all attacked Wu Xiaode in unison.

Unfortunately—

He was covered with nearly a hundred layers of defense from the human puppets, and neither their magic nor the End could harm him for the moment.

"Little Wu, we did it!"

The two angels shouted joyfully.

Without another word, Wu Xiaode immediately turned and flew back, landing within the human puppets’ formation.

"Fellows, that thing has been subdued by me. Now there’s no need to worry about being hit by it—uh—"

He frowned, holding his chest, and sat down on the ground.

"How are you feeling?" a human puppet asked.

"I took too many hits just now, I need to adjust for a bit..."

The human puppets looked at him, then gazed back out towards the battleground, noting that indeed there were no more destructive fireballs shooting around everywhere.

—He had actually done it!

Truly worthy of being the Queen Mother of the West’s personal human puppet!

Holding his chest with a grimace, Wu Xiaode said, "Don’t mind me, the fight is crucial. Fellows, go on without me!"

"Alright, you rest. Don’t worry about your safety, let us handle what comes next," said one of the human puppets.

They left a few human puppets behind specifically to protect Wu Xiaode, and the others launched into the attack once more.

Wu Xiaode glanced over at the Book of the Dead.

He saw two angels, their faces flushed with excitement, pressing a fireball to the ground, both looking at him in anticipation—

just like waiting to be fed.

"Can we eat it?" asked Angel Number One.

"I want to eat it now," said Angel Number Two.

Wu Xiaode thought for a moment and transmitted with his mind, "If you eat it now, you’ll immediately fall into slumber, and what if there are other Ends to deal with later?"

The two angels fell silent.

"Right! We can’t afford to be too full now!"

"Can’t eat, can’t sleep, we must hold out a bit longer, there might be a bigger feast later."

They pushed the fireball onto the ground, and then sat there properly, staring at Wu Xiaode without blinking—

just like waiting to be fed.

Wu Xiaode was about to speak again when he suddenly felt a gentle healing power over his body.

He looked up to see several human puppets treating him.

"How are you feeling now?" one of the human puppets asked.

"Ah, my chest still hurts a bit, I’m afraid I’ll need to rest a while longer," Wu Xiaode moaned in pain.

Suddenly.

A burst of intense bombing sounds came from the front.

A human puppet darted over, shouting, "Who among the human puppets has the ability to subdue the End? Get to the front lines, an uncontrollable End has appeared!"

The few human puppets protecting Wu Xiaode said in unison:

"He needs to wait, his wounds haven’t healed, he can’t—"

"I can!"

Wu Xiaode interrupted them, jumping up from the ground and shouting loudly.

The human puppets were all taken aback.

That human puppet couldn’t help but say, "You are personally cast by the Queen Mother of the West, your status is noble, and your injuries are not yet healed..."

Standing amid the human puppets, Wu Xiaode waved his hand and proclaimed righteously:

"If I rest a moment longer, another brother gets hurt!"

"We get by in the world with help from our brothers, how can I let everyone fight in the front while I luxuriate in the back? That cannot be!"

The human puppets fell silent for a while.

Truly, a human puppet crafted by the Great Venerate himself!

Though not the strongest, there’s that special ability and this level of self-awareness.

—Just like a truly noble person!

The Queen Mother of the West truly is the supreme sovereign above all in heaven and earth.

Her human puppet is also worthy of respect!

"May I ask for your code number?"

One of the human puppets asked with a bow.

By this time Wu Xiaode was ready to go, and he called out:

"My code number is unimportant—everyone cover for me, let’s go!"

"Yes!"

The human puppets responded in unison.
