A thunderous roar that could shake the heavens and the earth erupted. The terrifying sound caused Sterl's body to jolt, his ears ringing with a sharp pain.
"What's going on now?"
A sense of caution surged in Sterl's mind. He quickly looked up at the sky, and just by the sound alone, the noise was powerful enough to rattle him even while in his Ascend to Godhood state. The source of this sound was definitely not simple!
It wasn't just him. Up above the royal city, a group of gods, isolated and wrapped by the power of flags, also raised their heads in confusion and awe. However, unlike Sterl, their eyes also carried a hint of hope.
Although they had no idea what was happening, they had already hit an absolute dead-end. For those who found themselves at rock bottom, every step forward, no matter how small, felt like progress.
