Chapter 1056: Chapter 618: Goddess of Strategy’s Ascension_3

These Petitioners are tightly bound with the deities they worship. When a deity falls and its God Kingdom perishes, it will also be the time of death for that God Kingdom’s Petitioners, unless there are other gods and God Kingdoms willing to accept them. Therefore, Petitioners will actively help their god protect their God Kingdom, and may even form legions of Petitioners. However, they seldom leave the God Kingdom to battle, as that is a task for the Heroic Spirits and even Divine Envoys. As for Heroic Spirits, they are Petitioners with transcendent strength who are no longer confined to the God Kingdom and can carry out various special missions for their deity outside. Divine Envoys belong to even more powerful beings of Otherworld classes.

Immortal and blissfully content—this is what people often envision when they speak of the Divine Country Paradise, at least for those mortals. Thus, Petitioners are also called Divine Citizens.

"I am willing to stay in the God Kingdom to serve Your Highness."

"I want to be resurrected. I still have dreams that I have not fulfilled. I will continue to serve the lady in the Material Plane, spreading Your gospel and guiding more people into Your embrace."

"I want to be resurrected."

"I want to stay."

"I want to be resurrected too."

The souls of those fallen soldiers of the Conqueror Army made their choices. Only twenty percent chose to stay, while eighty percent chose resurrection.

Although the God Kingdom is magnificent, they still have too many concerns and dreams in the Material Plane. How could they stay in the God Kingdom in peace without resolving these?

The current situation is like a new king ascending to the throne, offering a general amnesty that can’t be sought after often, so naturally, they must seize the opportunity firmly.

"As you wish," intoned the Goddess of Strategy as she swung her longsword heavily. Countless rays of Holy Light fell, and one by one, bodies—whether from the Bridge of Human God, the turbulent Wild Border River, or from piles of corpses—flew out. Their wounds healed at a visible speed, and then, one after another, souls descended from the heavens and returned to their original owners’ bodies.

"Ah, ah, ah... I am alive again, haha... I am alive again. Thanks to the lady’s grace, I will not disappoint your expectations. With the sword in my hand, I will execute Your strategies, Your plans."

"Ha-ha-ha... I can continue our unfinished journey now. If I cannot witness the Conqueror Army walking the entire Conqueror Path, I would die discontented. Lucky for the lady’s grace."

"Thanks to the lady’s grace..."

"Thanks to the lady’s mercy..."

Those resurrected soldiers of the Conqueror Army shouted excitedly and didn’t forget to pay the highest respect to the Lady Strategy. Regardless of how deep their faith in the Lady Strategy was originally, it reached an unprecedented peak at this moment. Many will probably become fanatics, taking the worship of the lady as their lifelong pursuit.

This was also a strategic maneuver by the Goddess of Strategy. This move is known as "sowing beans to make soldiers." They now became Petitioners of Gunboard Chess Bastion, but were only one among many. However, once on the Material Plane, by the time they return, it’s very likely that they will no longer be alone, as many more people will join the ranks of her worshippers under their influence. These devout worshippers, while alive, are of greater use to her.

"Return what belongs to me," roared another voice, as a blurry cloud of blood rushed towards the Goddess of Strategy. Thick, exaggerated arms extended from the mist, each hand wielding a different weapon, "Without Tempus, that fool’s protection, let’s see what skills you have left."

"Karazgos, you are indeed still alive. You’re the biggest fool, used by the God of Conspiracy without knowing it. His utmost concern was not my strategic, Planning Clergy, but your Plunder and Godly Office of Destruction. Those match his Strife Priesthood the most. If you had just stayed put, you might have survived by a fluke. Since you’ve emerged again, then let me take the place of the War King to put an end to you." The Goddess of Strategy showed no surprise when attacked, as if everything was within her expectations.

Indeed, when she was previously ambushed by the God of Conspiracy Hesrick, she didn’t show any surprise, and the roar of the God of War Tempus was more out of being provoked than surprised.

The Goddess of Strategy controls both strategy and planning. Any planned action, especially those against her, hardly escape her eyes—even if suppressed by the God of Conspiracy using his own tricks—but not having several contingency plans wouldn’t be worthy of her Planning Clergy position, would it?

Not only is the God of War Tempus guarding her, but her preparations for Ascension exceed those of normal True Gods.

Many True Gods, feeling that their followers’ numbers are sufficient to ignite the Divine Fire and ascend the Godrealm, rush to do so, leaving significant security risks behind. Not to mention the various accidents that could arise during Ascension—since Ascension naturally causes a tremor in the world, even in the Multiverse, revealing one’s whereabouts to All Gods. Those Hostile or with similar Divine Positions will certainly try to stop it, unless such Ascension is a direct promotion by the sacred and majestic Will of the Multiverse, Ao, like the recent God of Conspiracy Hesrick or the current Magic Goddess Mistela.

Therefore, Ascension is not only about meeting strength requirements; it also involves interpersonal relationships. Whether you have powerful allies among the gods willing to extend the Hand of Aid, to block the enemy’s attacks at crucial moments.

On this point, the Goddess of Strategy has a natural advantage. She is a member of the War God Faction. Her Main God, her father, would naturally provide her with protection.

Even under the Divine protection of allies among gods, passing this barrier, igniting the Divine Fire, and ascending the Godrealm don’t mean everything is well.

As the power of deities is closely related to the number of their followers, those Hostile deities, when finding they can’t solve their opponents from the roots, often turn their dark hands toward the followers of the deity. If the followers die in large numbers, falling to a number unable to sustain the God Kingdom, it will also be the moment when the newly solidified God Kingdom collapses and Godhood shatters.
