At this moment, the roars of the territory lords filled the air, and everyone was eager to know what they should do next.
Would they be sent back?
Thus, two scenarios emerged: the native gods knelt and cried out, praising the protagonist.
However, the territory lords were in despair, unaware of what awaited them next.
Fortunately, it wasn't long before the [Game Official] issued another notice.
[The remaining territory lords have the following two choices.]
[One: Return to their own world, but their memories will be erased.]
[Two: Remain here permanently, but without the help of the [Game Official] and world laws, becoming native gods.]
Once these two rules were announced, the territory lords calmed down.
There was both joy and sorrow. On one hand, they felt they could finally stay in this world and not have to go back.
On the other hand, it was because they would no longer receive help from the [Game Official] and world laws, and would become native gods.
They would need to cultivate for hundreds of thousands of years like the native gods to advance.
This might take some time for the territory lords, who were accustomed to a fast pace, to adapt.
But at this moment, remaining in this world was already the best option for them.
Therefore, many territory lords chose to stay in this world.
However, a portion also chose to return to their own worlds.
Because for these people, their own worlds were also very good.
And there were people they cared about there.
However, this group was extremely small, almost negligible.
"Does this mean that after we lose the help of the [Game Official] and the world laws, our troops will also be gone?"
"What about our original troops? Will our original troops also be taken back?"
With this question, someone immediately found the [Game Official] and raised this issue.
The [Game Official] also kindly provided an explanation.
[The troops you produced will not be taken back, but similarly, no new troops will be produced.]
After hearing the [Game Official]'s explanation, although these territory lords felt a bit regretful,
they were still fortunate that their previous troops would not be taken back. Compared to the native gods, they still had a significant advantage.
Moreover, before this, the protagonist had already dealt with their greatest threat, the异界邪魔一族 (foreign otherworldly demons).
It was through dealing with the 异界邪魔一族 that these native gods truly accepted them, the territory lords.
Therefore, the current situation was not too bad for them, the territory lords, and even had some advantages.
Thinking of this, they felt very grateful to the protagonist.
However, when they thought of the protagonist, they were surprised to find that the protagonist, who had been sitting on the platform, had already disappeared.
What was even more frightening was that not only the protagonist had disappeared.
All the仙魔兵种 (immortal and demon troops) around him were also gone.
This struck all the territory lords present with great fear.
"Where is Big Shot Xiao Mo? Where is Big Shot Xiao Mo now?"
"Didn't the Race Hegemony competition end? Did Big Shot Xiao Mo make a different choice than us?"
"Yes, yes, Big Shot Xiao Mo already became first place, so why has he disappeared now?"
"This is just too strange, we can't see Big Shot Xiao Mo anymore!"
"What was that holy light just now? Why did Big Shot Xiao Mo disappear?"
"It's truly too strange!"
"..."
These territory lords had initially been focused on their own matters and had not paid attention to the protagonist. While they were discussing things, he had already been teleported away.
At the same time, the protagonist's troops were also teleported away.
Although most of these territory lords did not witness this scene, the native gods saw it clearly.
"Your Majesty, the Lord of the Immortal and Demon Empire, Your Majesty, the Lord of the Immortal and Demon Empire has gone, to the Upper Divine Realm next!"
An ancient god living on a distant continent said.
However, his voice was not heard by many. Some who did hear his words,
did not take them to heart.
"That is a divine miracle! Your Majesty, the Lord of the Immortal and Demon Empire must have gone to the side of the true gods, to become their loyal follower!"
"No, no, what are you talking about! Your Majesty, the Lord of the Immortal and Demon Empire must have become a true god! Broken through our limits!"
"It's just like that goddess! Huh? Which goddess was it?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? You can't even say anything coherent."
"What is all this? Has Your Majesty, the Lord of the Immortal and Demon Empire, truly become a new god?"
"That holy light was so cool. Now, where has Your Majesty, the Lord of the Immortal and Demon Empire, gone? I want to go with him too."
"You can have a dream, and in your dream, you can go with him."
"What are you mocking me for!"
"No matter what, no matter what, now that the 异界邪魔一族 has been completely annihilated by Your Majesty, the Lord of the Immortal and Demon Empire, as long as Your Majesty, the Lord of the Immortal and Demon Empire, is still here, the Primordial Continent will surely prosper!"
"Yes, the Primordial Continent is forever with Your Majesty, the Lord of the Immortal and Demon Empire!"
"..."
Although these gods did not know what had happened, some gods did know what was going on.
The Elf Goddess watched the two closest people to her disappear before her eyes, and tears streamed down her face.
"Her Highness, Goddess of the Earth, Helena Tiss, and Your Majesty, the Lord of the Immortal and Demon Empire, you have truly left me."
The Goddess of Destiny, Ira, looked up at the sky, her eyes filled with longing.
"I never thought you would actually leave. These two people have truly left this place! They must have gone to that world."
On the other side, the God of Ending, Jesse Qiongxi, and the Lord of Annihilation, Xue Tu, looked at each other again.
Both saw surprise in each other's eyes.
The God of Ending, Jesse Qiongxi, said in disbelief:
"Your Majesty, the Lord of the Immortal and Demon Empire has disappeared. Did he go to that world? What on earth is going on?"
The Lord of Annihilation, Xue Tu, quickly covered Jesse Qiongxi's mouth.
"Speak softly, don't talk so loudly, what if someone hears you?"
"So what if they hear? What's the big deal?"
Jesse Qiongxi, the God of Ending, impatiently brushed away Xue Tu's hand.
At this moment, Jesse Qiongxi's eyes lit up and he said:
"Your Majesty, the Lord of the Immortal and Demon Empire is gone, so this place will soon become our domain again."
