This was a different traversal mode from traveling through network lines. It was like passing through a layer of barrier—the scene before them instantly became utterly desolate.

Ren couldn't help but raise an eyebrow: "This is a bit different from what Rachena described."

According to Rachena's description, right now the Great World of Depravity should mostly be evolving normally, with some areas covered by war and blood beasts. Though there was a spreading trend, the Master of Depravity had home field advantage...

But now, what they saw was complete desolation and death. All areas were like earth after a volcanic eruption—nowhere had even a hint of life. Never mind calling this the World of Depravity—if someone said this was the World of Suffering or World of Despair, he'd believe it.

"There seems to be something over there!" The Goddess of Magic pointed in a direction and slowly spoke: "I sense divinity!"

Divinity?

The source of corruption, or the Master of Depravity?

Filled with curiosity, the two walked toward the area emanating divinity. They soon discovered that on the earth not far away, there was actually a platform. On that platform was clearly a wooden goat head sculpture!

When they approached, the goat head sculpture slowly turned its head toward them... They could clearly sense this was a piece of wood with no life force whatsoever. But at this moment, this wooden lump seemed alive. Its obsidian-like eyes seemed capable of emitting light...

"God of Technology, you came very quickly, much faster than I imagined." The wooden sculpture emitted a hoarse voice. "Unfortunately, you're too late. The God of War's corruption has almost completely devoured this world."

"God of War?" Ren's eyebrow twitched slightly.

He hadn't expected that the troublemaker was the God of War again... Why was this guy everywhere?

"Yes, the God of War. I can feel that He's trying to devour the God of Wine's authority. He's never given up. For thousands of years, He's always been trying... He's finally about to succeed." The hoarse voice kept sounding. For some reason, just hearing this voice felt like spanning an entire century.

"The God of Wine's authority? You mean the God of Wine's authority is on you?" Ren's interest grew. Anyway, with the Goddess of Magic beside him, he didn't need to worry about his own safety.

"Part of it, a very small part."

"Why is the God of Wine's authority on you? Is the God of Wine dead or did he just lose part of his authority?"

Even the Goddess of Magic didn't know how the God of Wine died. No, they didn't even know the God of Wine had died. They only knew the God of Wine disappeared, that the God of Wine's divine realm suddenly began to perish. When countless deities rushed over, the God of War had already arrived. Inside the God of Wine's divine realm, there were no clues at all.

Who would have thought this matter actually had an inside story?

"I don't know. I was born after the God of Wine's fall. The Fallen Ones' Pope was the God of Wine's church Pope. Everything I know, he told me... And not long ago, I ate him. He was already completely corrupted by the God of War, not even a shred of his soul was uncorrupted."

Ren took a deep breath to calm himself a bit. This damned God of War, causing one trouble after another. "So what did you want me here for? Want me to help you resist the God of War?"

"I don't know... I only know the Mirror of Depravity is on you. You've grasped part of the Mirror of Depravity's authority. You also seem able to perceive the boundary between illusion and reality... Take all the authority of depravity. I've buried it in the deepest part of this world. Don't let the God of War get it..."

"Why?"

The purpose of calling him here was to give him the authority of depravity?

Ren never imagined things would develop in this direction. This truly exceeded expectations.

"Once the God of War obtains the authority of depravity, unpredictable things will happen. You are the best candidate to take over the authority of depravity!" The goat head's voice seemed to carry a few notes of death-resolve. "I don't know why I was born, don't know where I'm going. But my instinct tells me I can't trust the God of War, can't give the authority of depravity to the God of War... I don't know why, but when you're a god, thoughts that pop into your brain must be executed! This won't be wrong!"

A strong, rotten stench kept expanding and spreading. Ren couldn't help but frown slightly. "Come over here, God of Technology. Accept the power of depravity... We're out of time! The God of War's power is coming."

"Don't you want to live?"

"Tsk tsk, live? Of course. I desire to live more than anyone. I love sinking into all the most wonderful things in this world. But I haven't even seen the starry sky. I was born in the World of Depravity in believers' hearts. They desired their World of Depravity to have a deity, so I was born. But I'm imprisoned in this World of Depravity. I'm this world's god, but I can never leave this world... I want to see everything outside, want to see the real world. But I can't... I only exist in their fantasies. And they're being devoured by the God of War. Hurry over here—we're out of time!"

Along with the rotten stench, the surroundings suddenly became somewhat sweltering.

The network grid constructed by imitating the Magic Net, the grid connecting these countless Worlds of Depravity, suddenly began turning red, becoming crimson. Flames seemed to be burning, spreading, getting closer and closer to them. The stench kept increasing.

Suddenly!

A illusory light appeared. The flames and blood corrupting the grid suddenly seemed to petrify the instant they touched this light, unable to move.

That aggressive God of War corruption suddenly stopped in its tracks. The goat head sculpture that had been lamenting life and urging Ren to hurry up suddenly couldn't make a sound. It stared blankly at everything not far away...

What... kind of power was this?!

How could it instantly freeze the God of War's corruption? How could it instantly freeze corruption that threatened its life?!

"This... how is this possible? You, God of Technology... No, your companion—what kind of existence is He? Why was the God of War's corruption so easily frozen by you? Why?!"
