Warhammer: Lord of the Endless Monsters

Chapter 483 Bluffing, the Third Star God Fragment
Cosmic beasts are far inferior to even the fragments of cosmic stars, let alone cosmic stars. Even the few high-level cosmic beasts that have absorbed fragments are still somewhat weaker than ordinary cosmic stars.

However, the Cosmic Star God was born at the very beginning of the universe, absorbing a large amount of stellar energy and radiation from the universe, and is a god of rules in the material realm.

Cosmic Beasts are merely a special type of monster in the Arcane Universe. Their life levels are not on the same level. However, after the Cosmic Beasts came to this world, they absorbed the Star God Fragments and, with the assistance and enhancement capabilities of the system, led the Cosmic Beast race onto a new path.

"What cosmic beasts? In my opinion, they are nothing more than the masterpiece of the Star God. You don't need to lie to me. The only one who has been deceived is yourself. You have been deceived by the Star God. Whatever he promised you, it was all a lie," the traveler Anlakel said with a cold snort.

Humans are utterly ridiculous, thinking they have mastered the power of the cosmic stars and have gained their allegiance. What a joke! The cosmic stars can never submit to any material cosmic life form.

Because they are the highest level of life in the material universe, would you humans submit to an ant?

“I have no reason to lie to you. Besides, the Cosmic Beasts have the ability to absorb Cosmic Star Gods and can completely kill them. I have already destroyed two fragments of Cosmic Star Gods in succession,” Rhodes said with some helplessness.

What on earth are you thinking, you bastard?

"Hahaha! This is the funniest joke I've ever heard. The so-called servant is actually the master, and the so-called master is actually the servant."

You are helping this cosmic star god absorb the power of other star gods. You are helping him to resurrect. When he no longer needs you, he will take back all the power he has given you.

"At that time, you will lose everything and suffer a miserable end. I can already see your future," said the traveler Anlakel.

If it possesses the same power as the Cosmic Star God and can devour fragments of the Cosmic Star God, then it is not a Cosmic Star God, so what is it?

He had never seen this phoenix-shaped cosmic star god before. It was likely a relatively weak cosmic star god that had been newly born during their 60 million years of slumber.

It's already quite obvious that it devoured fragments of other cosmic star gods.

These cosmic stars cannot be killed by their mortal forms, but other cosmic stars can kill their own kind by devouring them.

They once tricked a powerful star god, telling him that, apart from the souls of life forms in the real universe, their own kind were the most delicious food.

So the star god did not hesitate to devour his companion, tearing him to pieces and eating him.

In his view, this giant energy creature in the shape of a phoenix was a young star god. Once it absorbed enough star god fragments, it would undoubtedly rebel against its master.

Therefore, the fate of this human in front of him is self-evident. In Anlakel's view, Rhodes and the three beings in front of him all received the blessing of an unknown star god, which is why they possess such powerful real-world cosmic forces.

As for the resurrection of their race, they were once transformed into these cold, metallic skeletons by the Star God.

If we can transform them, then we can naturally revive them as well. As the saying goes, the one who tied the knot must untie it; it's a very simple principle.

However, this unknown star god won't be arrogant for long. News of your death will soon reach Space Prince's Mausoleum, and the Silent King will definitely take action.

"..." Rhodes looked at his Cosmic Phoenix speechlessly. If the Cosmic Phoenix hadn't been summoned by the system, I would have believed it.

According to you, is my system something created by a strange star god? Is my transmigration also a conspiracy of a star god? Is a star god so powerful that he can summon Tartarus? Summon the Root of Destruction Angel, and summon cosmic beasts and dark giants?
If such a powerful star god truly existed, you wouldn't have won the War of Heaven 6000 million years ago.

"Hmph! What foolish, lowly life forms! They like to make wild guesses about things they don't understand at all. Cosmic Beasts are very magical life forms, and they have a very gentle nature. They are not evil beings at all." Tartarus, who was standing to the side, spread his arms and snorted coldly.

Even the mighty Mysterious Four are only slightly stronger than him!
"You're really quite pitiful, Anlakel. You space undead, or rather, the fearsome race, are no longer the galactic overlords you once were."

You have lost your former glory and honor. Before you were transformed into space undead, you were a highly intelligent race with artistic talent and refined virtues.

"Huh? After you transformed into space undead, you became brutal, cold-blooded, ruthless, and tyrannical monsters," Rhodes said.

“This is all a curse from the Star Gods! Our race was not originally like this,” Anlakel said.

“I’m not going to waste my breath on you. Your Star God Fragment is mine,” Rhodes said.

"Wishful thinking! You think you can get our space necromancers' stuff by defeating me?"

I'm telling you, it's impossible! You don't have permission to open the core world of the tomb.

Even if you possess immense power, the technology of the space necromancers is beyond your comprehension, unless you forcibly open that cage.

"Then the hypercube device inside will activate. As for what will happen, you'll find out once you try it," Anlakel said. In reality, Anlakel was bluffing. Although the hypercube had some safety measures, these guys were no match for it.

The reason I said that was to make them hesitate and preserve their own tomb world first, and then wait for the Silent King to come and help them take away the Star God Fragment.

“I get the feeling you’re just bluffing,” Rod said.

Rhodes wasn't too willing to gamble on the methods of the space necromancers. He didn't want to be caught off guard and end up with a suicidal scheme.

“You lackey of the evil star god! You disgusting slave of the star god, have the guts to kill me!” Anlakel said.

It seems his plan has succeeded; now he needs to get the other party to kill him as soon as possible.

The Silent King also possesses a backup of his memories, which allow him to be resurrected if the other party attempts to kill him.

"Does Master want to kill him?" asked Zog, the Root of Destruction, who was standing to the side.

“Master, I’m sure his tomb’s core isn’t that secure,” the Mefilas alien said.

He was 80% certain that the space necromantic overlord in front of him was bluffing.

"Great master, trust us, there will be absolutely no problem. With my spatial abilities, plus the powerful superpowers of the Mifelas aliens."

"And then there's the power of the Destroyer, Zog. No matter what methods are used, they are all ineffective. Before absolute power, everything is futile," Tartarus said.

This space necromancer is just bluffing. If he really had some trick up his sleeve that could threaten or even kill his master, he wouldn't have said it out loud, but instead lured his master to go there.

Upon hearing this, Rhodes nodded, picked up the head of the space necromancer in front of him, and handed it to the alien from the American planet Mephiras for safekeeping.

"Lock him up! Keep a close watch on him!" Rod said.

These space undead overlords all possess memory backups. If they are killed rashly, their memory backups will be resurrected elsewhere, so imprisoning them is the most perfect choice.

As long as the individual is not completely dead, the reaffirmation protocol will not be initiated, and memory backup will not be enabled.

Anlakel began cursing Rhodes madly. But it was completely useless; his consciousness was quickly sealed by Mephiras's amazing telekinetic powers, and he was then put into an iron box.

After dealing with this space necromancer overlord, Rhodes led three subordinates to the core of the tomb in the space forest.

Then his three subordinates began to display their unique abilities: the superpowers of the Mephiras aliens, and Tartarus possessing the advanced science and technology of the Absolutians, as well as the ability to manipulate time and space.

They cracked the core of the tomb with ease.

"It's nothing special, Master!"

"This idiot is just bluffing. There are indeed some safety measures here, but they're only enough to deal with ordinary mortal races. Against beings of our level, his little tricks are nothing," Tartarus said.

Rhodes nodded and entered the core of the tomb world, where a 2000-meter-tall green figure made of energy was imprisoned in a hypercube.

"Mortal, release me, and I will grant you unparalleled power, I will give you everything you desire." The Star God opposite Rhodes began speaking as soon as they entered the core of the tomb.

"Hehe! You can rest assured that I will release you!" Rhodes said.

"Very good, mortal. You have made a wise choice. After releasing me, I will make you my servant and grant you a long life and great power," the Star God fragment before me said with great satisfaction.

“Don’t misunderstand, you won’t become my master. Instead, you’ll become food for my servants. I don’t need anything from you; I’ll take it from you myself,” Rhodes said with a cold laugh.

Tartarus, the Angel of Destruction, and the Mephiras alien exchanged a glance, then released the Cosmic Star God and took it into space.

Rhodes also released Zoga, the Queen of the Mythical Beasts, and the other cosmic mythical beasts to absorb the fragments of the cosmic star god.
