Chapter 643: The Battlefield of the Gods
When they met him in the Battle of the Thrones as the number one Sword of the Gods, everyone could tell that he had grown stronger than ever. They did not know the reason, but they were all certain that Brod actually had insane power, which he had sealed at some point. During the Battle of the Thrones, that seal had been released.
Right now, Brod was brought to that state again once he had in his hand the sword that Minhyuk and Hyemin’s Daddy had made together for him—the ‘Greatsword for the Knight that Left.’
Shwaaaaaaaaaaa—
A powerful force burst out and swept the entire area. It looked like a powerful tornado had materialized in place. This sudden development made the God-class players and the antagonists feel flustered.

Minhyuk released a trembling breath as he watched the light disappear and reveal Brod wearing a bright red helmet and armor. It felt quite refreshing to meet with this man again.
Brod knelt down on one knee and courteously said, “Your Majesty, please give me your orders.”
To Minhyuk, Brod had always been a very reliable person. His appearance here meant that Minhyuk gained the strength of a thousand men. Meanwhile, the God-class players and the antagonists behind them all heard the same notifications.
Brod was currently an Absolute God-level being. Of course, not everyone was strong just because they were hailed as an Absolute God. There was someone that was good at cooking, good at summoning, good at saving, and someone good at leading. Brod, however…was definitely a very powerful Absolute God.
“Destroy the enemies.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“…Did he say Your Majesty?”
“No, no way…”
Minhyuk knew that his enemies would start to figure out his true identity at this point in time. In the first place, there were not many players that had extremely powerful entities under their command like him. Also, there were only two people in the world that could be referred to as ‘Your Majesty’.
“The, the Food God…”
“Food God Minhyuk…”
“But, but even if he truly is the Food God, are his vassals truly this strong?”
It was the biggest point of doubt for everyone. Minhyuk’s Named NPCs were all famous. Everyone was aware that each and every single one of them were legends. However, being a legend did not mean that they were God rank. No one had heard that they had reached the God rank. This was mainly because they were unaware that the series of notifications about the creation of God-rank artifacts were all related to Minhyuk.
Brod slowly stood up, his sharp gaze looking at the enemies that surrounded them. Everyone that caught his eyes could not help but flinch.
“Mercenary’s Pinnacle Swordsmanship,” murmured Mercenary King Brod as he stood there imposingly. His voice was soft, but the impact of those words was tremendous.
Right now, Brod was much stronger than he used to be. In addition, he also wielded the God-rank greatsword that granted him almost 2700 attack points!
“Final Chapter. Wolf of Death.”
[Warning!!!]
[This is an attack that you cannot block!]
[You have fallen into a 2 second stunned state!]
“What…?”
Everyone was terrified. It seemed like the drastic increase in the level of Brod’s skill, Wolf of Death’s Final Chapter, had added a stunned state to it. While everyone had turned stiff from being stunned, the attack’s original hundred blades turned into thousands, raining down upon them. It took only one tenth of a second for this attack to tear apart all of the enemies that surrounded Minhyuk and Brod.
“God of Protection’s Shie… Aaaaargh!”
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaack!”
“Aaaaaaargh!”
Around 20,000 people disappeared without a trace. Ashes fluttered at the places that the sword blades passed by. But the attack did not end there.
“God’s Strongest Swordsmanship. Greatsword’s Style Chapter 3. Slash.”
An enormous greatsword around fifty meters in length appeared in the skies above them. As it fell upon them, it was as though a gigantic God was thrusting the greatsword downward with all his might.
Baaaaaaaaaaaaang!
A tremendous force with 13,000% attack came crashing down and turned everyone that it passed by into ashes. In an instant, 30,000 of the enemies disappeared. The next moment, Minhyuk received a set of notifications.
[The special ability ‘King and Vassal’ of the Greatsword for the Knight that Left has been triggered!]
[All stats will increase by 12% as long as King and Vassal is activated!]
Yes, the Greatsword for the Knight that Left had a buff effect that could raise all of the stats when the king and his vassal fought together. The most surprising part was that it could overlap with other buffs.
Alexander, Ali, Death, and even Akhan were rendered speechless. All they could do was gape at Brod as he massacred 30,000 people at once. What they needed to do right now was made clear to them.
“Concentrate your attacks!!!”
They tried to attack Minhyuk and Brod in unison. Just then, a red aura suddenly burst out from Brod’s body while a golden aura erupted from Minhyuk’s body.
[The King and Vassal’s Sword Dance.]
[The King and his Vassal have begun a sword dance together!]
[They would both be resistant to all status ailments and abnormal statuses as they perform their sword dance!]
[Skill cooldown will be reduced by 40% as they perform their sword dance!]
[Attack and movement speed will increase by 50% as they perform their sword dance!]
[Evasion rate will increase by 300% as they perform their sword dance!]
[Physical and Magical Defense will increase by 80% as they perform their sword dance!]
[The sword dance will last for two minutes!]
The King and Vassal’s Sword Dance was a skill that could only be performed if the king and his vassal trusted each other and fought alongside each other on the battlefield. Although it would only last for two minutes, everything would increase by leaps and bounds.
“Heuuuuup!” Brod breathed in as he dug deep into the ranks of the enemies while Minhyuk jumped right behind him.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
The lightning triggered with every stroke of Minhyuk’s sword was several times more powerful than usual, and it swept away hundreds of enemies. As for Brod, an attack-oriented character and given a greatsword with an attack power of 2,700 to boot, everytime he swung his sword, his enemies would turn to ashes and disappear into the wind. It was a one-shot kill.
Slash, slash, slash, slash, slash, slash, slash—
“Shit! Somebody cast some debuff on them!!!”
“Use debuff or magic! Just try and stop them!!!”
“Euaaaaaaaaaack!!!”
Screams rang loudly everywhere. However, no matter what they did, they could not do much against Brod, who was covered with red aura, and Minhyuk, who was covered with a golden aura. After all, not only had their stats and skills all risen dramatically, but they now also had resistance against anything and everything.
“Sword of Absolute Death.”
With Minhyuk becoming a God, the powerful skill that could create hundreds of sword blades had become even more potent, now summoning thousands of blades.
Slash, slash, slash, slash, slash, slash, slash!
With the advent of the devastating blades, the enemies were easily swept away. Of course, Brod did not idle around, casting a skill along with Minhyuk’s skill.
“God’s Strongest Swordsmanship, Final Chapter. Exploding Sword.”
Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang—
The ground twisted and turned as huge, powerful explosions enveloped a 150-meter radius.
“…”
Cold sweat dripped down Alexander’s forehead as the notifications constantly rang in his ears.
[24, 313 allied Antagonists were killed in less than a minute!]
[75 allied God-class players were killed in less than a minute!]
[17, 441 allied Antagonists were killed in less than a minute!]
[55 allied God-classes players were killed in less than a minute!]
It was a completely impossible feat, yet the situation was unfolding right in front of them. With this, Alexander quickly changed his mind.
‘The Battlefield of the Gods has a time limit.’
Because of the time limit, the game would end in an hour. Right now, the God-class players did not need to hunt God. What they needed to do was to hold out as long as possible so they could prove that they were at least equal to him. Thanks to that, Alexander was relieved.
‘The other envoys are probably not that strong, right?’
The commentators from all over the world seemed to share the same sentiments.
[From what I can see, the God-class players need to change their strategy. I think it’s better for them to place more importance on enduring than hunting God.]
[The sudden appearance of Brod has caused the tides of war to change.]
[The figure of the two of them fighting together, back-to-back, is so cool.]
Yes. Common sense already went out the window in this fight. Everyone knew that Minhyuk and his Named NPCs were incredibly strong. However, the fact that they suddenly became Gods was so unbelievable. Alexander desperately wanted to believe that this was the end of it.
***
ATV Broadcasting Station’s PD Kim Dae-Guk trembled after realizing that the God candidate was Food God Minhyuk. With that revelation, the ratings of their broadcast had reached another all time high.
“PD! We’re almost reaching our highest viewership rating!”
PD Kim Dae-Guk’s hands were now covered with sweat. It was only natural. After all, many people came to their broadcast after hearing the news about God’s identity. However, just like what they expected, the view was still unable to surpass the highest viewership rating that they had.
So far, Minhyuk had always been the topmost contributor to ATV Broadcasting Station’s highest viewership rating. However, even if that was the case, everyone in this room believed that it would be very hard to surpass the highest viewership rating; after all, the other broadcasts also had a massive impact.
PD Kim Dae-Guk could not erase the regret on his face. At that moment, the director called out to him, and Dae-Guk rushed to where the director was. However, he suddenly stopped in his tracks when he heard the murmur of one of the employees in the room.
“Fi, finally! He’s summoning another envoy!!!”
“…!”
PD Kim Dae-Guk whipped back despite the director’s urgent call. Which envoy would appear this time? Of course, no one thought that another God rank envoy would appear this time. It just did not make sense at all. How could a player have so many God-rank envoys, right? If that happened, then the balance would be completely and utterly broken.
On the screen, Minhyuk and Brod continued to dance around the battlefield as several bright lights shot down from the skies.
“Crazy…! He’s summoning so many of them at once?!”
Minhyuk had accumulated his contribution points and bided his time to summon all of them at once. Among all of the summoned envoys was a small girl. The little girl was wearing a white mask and a white priestess robe.
[God has summoned his fourth Envoy.]
[Warning!!!]
[A being that has transcended the limits of a human being has made an appearance!]
[Warning!!!]
[A being that has transcended the limits of a human being has made an appearance!]
[The envoy summoned by God is also another God!!!]
“F, fourth…?”
“The, the viewership ratings are increasing once again!!! We’re getting closer to breaking our highest record!!!”
The higher the ratings, the smaller the increase. So, even if it rose just a bit, it could be said that the increase in rating was tremendous. Yet, before they could even collect themselves, another surprise lay in store for them.
[God has summoned his fifth Envoy.]
[Warning!!!]
[A being that has transcended the limits of a human being has made an appearance!]
[Warning!!!]
[A being that has transcended the limits of a human being has made an appearance!]
[The envoy summoned by God is also another God!!!]
“…?”
The person that appeared this time was as tall as Brod. Looking at the figure, PD Kim Dae-Guk thought that he was probably Gorfido.
“A, a fifth God?!”
The following summons were no less shocking.
[God has summoned his sixth Envoy.]
[The envoy summoned by God is an Absolute Supreme NPC!!!]
[God has summoned his seventh Envoy.]
[…is an Absolute Supreme NPC!!!]
[God has summoned his eighth Envoy.]
[…Absolute Supreme NPC!!!]
Notifications like these kept on ringing. These notifications rendered the entire world speechless. For the Fourth God, instead of the power to control the system, she showed the power to devour her enemies. With just one wave of her hand, tens of thousands of enemies bled all over.
One after the other, the envoys released their attacks. The man who was believed to be Great Pirate Gorfido swung the huge scythe in his hand and released a gigantic wave of lava that engulfed tens of thousands of enemies.
Even the Absolute Supreme NPCs used their lethal skills together.
“P, PD… Our, our highest viewership rating has been updated…”
In just three minutes, Food God Minhyuk had written another legend. In three minutes, just three minutes, there were no other people standing on the battlefield except for Minhyuk and his envoys.
Then, the notifications rang.
[The first Battlefield of the Gods has ended!]
[In the first Battlefield of the Gods, ‘God’ has overpowered and wiped out his enemies!]
[God, who has achieved an overwhelming feat, will receive a special reward!]
“Our Lord, the Food God…” PD Kim Dae-Guk murmured unknowingly.
