Chapter 1782: The Ancient Titans.



Gemmis didn't disappoint them and didn't keep them waiting for long. It said, "The ancient titans are elemental creatures created for disasters and apocalypses. They are nature's wrath and response to the increase of the burden of parasites on the world. Whenever the mortal races begin to rise in power by stealing the power of mana, the ancient titans will awaken to stop them."

"The ancient titans are also dangerous to gods. In fact, their first target is always the gods, as you are the reason why mortals gained access to Mana in the first place. They are so dangerous that they are one of the reasons why the last era of the gods ended. With the death of all gods in the divine realm, the ancient titans went to sleep."

"They have only been asleep. They are not gone. The area they sleep in becomes the elemental zones that spawn divine beasts because their divinity is returned to nature. So each time you kill a divine beast, the divinity they possess is not dropped because they get returned to the ancient titans. This strengthens them as they sleep."

"In the situation where the number of godlings reaches a million and the number of true gods reaches ten thousand, the ancient titans begin to awaken. That's the situation we are currently in."

"It will be the weak ancient titans that awaken at first. But if those weak ones are killed, their divinity will be sent to other slumbering titans to awaken them and make them stronger. So the more titans the gods kill, the stronger the remaining titans become until they become strong enough to wipe out all the gods."

"In summary, the ancient titans represent an increasingly dangerous enemy that the gods have to fight forever until the gods are wiped out or until a god becomes powerful enough to stop the transfer of divinity to slumbering titans after the death of divine beasts and titans. That way the Titans will stop growing stronger and will instead weaken."

"Things aren't all bad about the ancient titans. Killing them will grant titan crystals. Titan crystals are useful for a lot of things. The most important one being its effect on mortals. You already know that divine crystals can improve the stats of mortals. Titan crystals can do more than that. They can grant the coveted class of Hero to mortals."

"Amongst many other benefits, heroes are mortals that can travel between the mortal and divine realms. They are the most likely mortals to become gods in the future. So if you plan to expand your pantheon with loyal surbodinates, you will need them. Heroes are also immortal, as their lives are bound to their gods."

"As for those who were among the first 100 godlings in the northern realm, you won't need these titan crystals to use your reward for that achievement. But getting more titan crystals doesn't hurt."

"So killing ancient titans can bring benefits to you as well as buy a brief moment of respite before the next titan awakens. After all, it won't do for another titan to awaken and wreck havoc together with the one still alive. So it is a must that they be killed."

"But in the case where you have all failed to kill the ancient titan, it will first try to destroy me. In fact, the ancient titans always went for the divine cities closest to them. If you don't want to lose me, it is best that you fortify me. For that, I need divinity."

"The more divinity you give me, the stronger I will be. If you give me enough, I will be able to kill the titans when they get close enough to me. If I don't get enough divinity, then I won't be able to kill them, and I will be destroyed by them."

"This contribution is going to be equal among all the gods. We will have a series of votes to determine how much divinity each god in Gemmis has to contribute. If they fail to give it, then some of the privileges they enjoy in the city, such as protection, will be revoked."
