The Protector (The Return Of The God of War) novel Chapter 2878

Chapter 2878 Who Would Not Want To Be A Deity

As promised, Dr. Erebus heard a commotion after they went deeper in.

It was the sound of battle.

The spiritual energy exuded from that fight was overwhelming, and its scary effect had spread out.

A battle as intense as that would get any animal in the forest to stay far, far away.

Nothing would want to get close.

Even from a distance, Dr. Erebus and Levi could see how hundreds of fighters had surrounded three mutated wolves.

The spiritual energy had turned the wolves into unstoppable beasts that were stronger than anyone could imagine.

Unfortunately, the three wolves were fighting more than a hundred young fighters. They were reasonably wounded and bled endlessly as though they were on the verge of dying.

The young fighters, on the other hand, were laughing boisterously.

They were celebrating the fact that they were given extraordinary power and were going to accomplish their mission of killing the wolves.

Levi looked a little upset as he wondered what they were doing.

Dr. Erebus could tell what Levi was thinking, so he explained, “Monsters like those have always been a little different because nature blessed them. Hence, they were more sensitive to the outburst of spiritual energy and could grow to be stronger.

“It is also why their bodies are precious commodities. Their blood, skin, horn… everything is powerful, and the spiritual energy only made them work even better. In a way, their blood is like medicine from heaven. Drinking it will strengthen a person’s body and make that person stronger.

“I’ve heard rumors about how many people have snuck into restricted areas to kill beasts like the ones over there their unique properties.

“Their blood, for instance, contained saturated spiritual energy and could make others stronger. Their skins can make unbreakable armor that are sturdier than the ones from Zarain. Those horns can also be shaped into a weapon that could break through anything.

“That is why these beasts are being targeted and hunted. Naturally, that fate is only limited to beasts that are less powerful. Many beasts have turned into something as powerful as the deities. Heck, some are even stronger than deities. For now, we have an idea of how many and how powerful those deities are, but we know relatively little about the powerful beasts.”

While it’s true that many had received incredible power after the world’s environment changed, it still didn’t change the fact that humans were greedy.

They weren’t satisfied with what they already had.

In fact, every fighter wanted to become a deity at the time.

The only way to do that was to keep strengthening themselves and absorbing more spiritual energy.
