Chapter 799: The God of Plagues

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It had already been transformed into a dog with a mythical metal body. If it were to set foot into the lake, it would drown.

It could use magic to float, but doing so would only expose its true form and the Spirit Foxes would realize that it was no ordinary dog.

Dogs naturally knew how to swim, so why would they need magic?

Its plight was similar to a eunuch who did not want others to discover that he was no longer a man.

All of a sudden, the lake water turned black. It was blacker than Brett.

It began to happen near the three young foxes that were playing in the water.

What was going on?

The Black Dog had not the faintest idea. It had always been a dumb dog and ever since it was given a metallic body, it felt his intelligence was slowly fading away.

If Old Yellow was here, he might have discovered the cause of the problem.

However, Brett only knew how to run forwards and drop into the water. At the same time, he cast a spell on his own body.

“No, sisters, come back! It’s the descent of the God of Plagues!” The white fox shrieked in terror.

“What’s happening? What does the God of Plagues want with us?” The Spirit Foxes were bewildered.

Meanwhile, an abundance of dead fish rose from the depths of the lake and floated on the surface of the water. Most of the fish were quite huge with sizes beyond half a meter.

Tender and succulent fish was supposed to be an exquisite delicacy. Unfortunately, the fishes in the lake were tainted by the inky black substance and oozed a foul stench.

The three young foxes were rescued by the Black Dog in time. They still had not recovered from the shock.

Before they descended to Earth, their powers had already diminished and they failed to maintain their human forms. As such, they managed to pass through the Space Control.

The Black Dog judged that the Spirit Foxes’ powers at the time of descent were slightly greater than that of his and the Yellow Dog. In other words, they were at the Bucket-level instead of the Pond-level.

That was why it volunteered to be the Spirit Foxes’ tour guide. Its real intention was to win the hearts of the Foxes by being the brave hero, but it turned out that the Foxes were more interested in its master instead.

Now that the Foxes are safe and sound, the Black Dog was heartbroken to hear their remarks.

“Our brother-in-law’s the best. It’s fortunate that he assigned this Black Dog to escort us, or else we’ll be in big trouble.” A red fox, who was still reeling from the terror, commented.

“True, he’s not only handsome, but he’s so gentle and thoughtful. A hero from those fantasy novels indeed!”

The Black Dog laid on the ground and winced. No matter how much it did, it would only end up giving its master more credit.

Wait, how could it harbor this thought?

This was wrong!

The Black Dog shook its head violently in an attempt to chase those vile thoughts out.

In the meantime, the lake water continued to turn dark.

It did not take long for the entire lake to be engulfed by the darkness. Countless animals inhabiting that area were sacrificed in the process, including several giant crocodiles.

Apparently, the tips provided on the internet about avoiding the water were true.

“What happened?” A familiar voice could be heard.

“Brother-in-law’s here!” The group of Foxes cheered excitedly.

Brett wagged his tail and ran towards Vigilante A. It proudly announced. “Master, I rescued three of the Foxes.”

“It happened like this. The God of Plagues has descended. I suspect it used me and my sisters as mediums to enter your realm.” The white fox joined them and told them her suspicions.

Vigilante A looked at the lake ahead and furrowed his brows.

It was not good. This was the kind of god that would blindly ravage innocents. In other words, a malevolent, evil god.

Fang Ning pondered quietly.

“Why aren’t you talking?” Sir System asked curiously.

I told you before, I would not talk.

Fang Ning kept thinking.

“Hmph, you humans are petty.” Sir System grumbled.

Vigilante A ran towards the Foxes and the Black Dog, waved his arm and they disappeared in the next moment.

The Draconic Arcane Realm.

“Huh, where are we?” The group of Foxes realized they were on a different patch of grass and began to clamor in surprise.

“This is the master’s personal grotto-heaven. He doesn’t want you all to be harmed in the upcoming battle, hence he brought all of you here.” The Black Dog explained.

“Brother-in-law’s amazing!”

The Black Dog lowered his head in despair.

At the same time, a silhouette shrouded in darkness appeared on the surface of the lake.

“Vigilante A? Was it you, the Persona who suppressed the Golden Deity?” The silhouette questioned him coldly.

“So what if I am?” Vigilante A replied indifferently.

“Not bad. The Golden Deity is very strong. Although you only defeated one of his Persona’s, that’s something to be proud of. However, your success ends here.” The silhouette let out a shrill laugh.

“Really? Your sudden appearance has taken the lives of many aquatic beings. Obviously, my prior warning to the Moon Goddess has fallen onto deaf ears.” Vigilante A responded.

“Oh? You expect us to obey the laws of ordinary beings? What a joke. Isn’t it perfectly natural for ordinary humans to worship the gods? Blaspheming gods will only lead to death. Is there anything wrong with this?” The silhouette spoke wickedly.

“Perhaps that’s the norm in your realm, but our realm is a civilized and open-minded one. Gods and humans alike must respect the laws of Earth. Harming innocents and infringing upon their rights are forbidden.” Vigilante A emphasized firmly.

“You’re a miracle, a miracle that has sold out the powerhouses. Your endowment is strong. Although the Golden Deity’s Persona isn’t that powerful and is restricted to your realm, you could still defeat him, proving you have the endowment and qualification to become a god. Why are you still speaking on behalf of those humans? What do you gain from helping them? Does the Path of Heavenly Punishment require you to do this?” The silhouette inquired.

Nothing could be gained from helping them, but getting to hunt you down and kill you was the greatest advantage I could get.

Fang Ning said this to himself.

“You’re still going to keep quiet?” Sir System was impatient.

He was not going to open his mouth.

Vigilante A continued speaking. “The Path of Heavenly Punishment? What do you know of that? I’m bound by oath to protect the humans. Of course, you wouldn’t understand, as you’re all selfish.”

“Haha, gods are indeed selfish, and it’s due to this that we’re immortal. Saints are the greatest thieves, thus they can become saints. The only selfless ones in the picture are the stolen Heavens and Earth.” The silhouette laughed.

“Those with conflicting principles can never work together. I don’t want to start a fight today. You’d better leave this realm at once, or else, I shall smash your soul to smithereens. You should know there are people watching you in this realm.” Vigilante A declared defiantly.

“Haha, what a joke! The Path of Religious Cultivation that you chose would definitely lead to your downfall. No one will remember you, for we’ll remind the humans that you’re an evil deity, a reckless fellow that taunts gods.” The silhouette finished speaking and vanished.

The black color faded away and the surface of the lake regained its previous tranquility. Ony the countless number of dead fishes served as indicators that something extraordinary took place here.
