Summoning Millions of Gods Daily, My Strength Equals Theirs Combined Chapter 473 -473-Reclaiming the Throne? One Person Is Enough!
Previously on Summoning Millions of Gods Daily, My Strength Equals Theirs Combined...
The Crossbridge Empire had already surpassed typical Divine Empire–level powers in terms of legionary foundations alone.
Furthermore, it boasted Kaos—who was suspected of being a Sage Master—three quasi–Sage Lords, a World Relic, and a golden sword of half–World Relic–grade...
Aurek himself had achieved the quasi–Sage Lord realm. Given his massive accumulation, he would soon achieve Foundation Establishment in the Sage Lord rank and progress toward the true Sage Lord level!
Upon reviewing his Emperor Point reserves, he found 360 trillion still remained!
Additionally, he held an Authority Divine Herb along with vast stores of divine medicines, precious ores, and various resources plundered from the Dark Council’s vaults.
Most significant was the Origin of Darkness, which held the fundamental source of order and law. This item served as the vital key for his advancement to Sage Master.
From this point forward, the path ahead required only dedicated Cultivation and a steady buildup of power toward his breakthrough.
Outside the main hall.
Natasha, Alice, Sophia, and Lucy overseen a multitude of Divine Sanctuary female officials and attendants. They were busy transplanting and organizing the various treasures reclaimed from the Dark Council.
Sacred fruit trees infused with laws, gardens of legendary divine herbs, and holy pools designed to collect primal essence were all carefully moved into the sprawling grounds of Moonshine Hall.
Legendary potions, elite divine medicines, rare ores, and similar materials were systematically categorized and placed within the palace treasury.
Vast quantities of precious divine source crystals, gemstones, countless magic stones, and high-purity energy crystals were utilized to decorate and pave the pathways and palaces of the Divine Sanctuary.
Resources that the outside world considered priceless—treasures that many powerhouses could only dream of—were used here as simple paving stones, representing an extreme level of extravagance!
The hearts of every female official and servant trembled with awe. Such a display of wealth and nobility felt like a dream.
However, the intensity in their eyes only grew more passionate!
Since the moment they were chosen to serve the Divine Sanctuary, they had been waiting for a chance to secure their own destiny.
Aurek exited the Supreme Sanctuary and called for the White Lady and Merolle.
The beauty of Merolle truly struck Aurek.
Nevertheless, his attention was currently fixed on the White Lady.
"The gateway to the Radiant God Realm has been stabilized," Aurek stated, getting straight to the point. "I plan to assist you in returning to the Frostwinter Realm to reclaim your authority. In exchange, I expect your cooperation with the Empire to jointly manage the Radiant God Realm."
This was a strategic move he had prepared long ago.
The enigmas surrounding the White Lady were far more profound than they appeared.
By helping her return to the Snow Kingdom, he could not only test her true motives and plans but also find a way to station his forces within that realm.
By supporting her rise to the throne, he would effectively gain indirect control over a Divine Empire–level power—a crucial pivot for the Empire’s future expansion into the complex Radiant God Realm.
The White Lady gave a subtle nod of acknowledgement.
"What level of military force do you require?" Aurek inquired.
This was not intended as a full-scale invasion of the Snow Kingdom, but rather support for her to retake her crown.
However, the White Lady had been absent for an immense period. She was currently isolated, and her Cultivation rank was lower than that of the reigning Snow Queen.
Without significant external aid, her chances of success were virtually non-existent.
That assistance needed to be both powerful and substantial.
"I alone am enough," the White Lady replied with composure.
Aurek’s eyes narrowed slightly at her words.
"How much confidence do you truly have?"
"You have been gone from the Snow Kingdom for hundreds of thousands of years. How can you be certain your former supporters will still be loyal?"
"The reigning queen has undoubtedly purged your old faction long ago."
The White Lady currently only held the Sacred Radiance rank. If she returned as a Divine Oracle, she might stand a chance by relying on her status as the rightful heir.
Even then, the probability of success remained low.
Yet, the White Lady answered calmly, "The emblem of supreme authority for the Snow Kingdom is in my possession. Without it, her reign lacks a legitimate Foundation. Therefore, Your Majesty has no need for concern."
After considering this, Aurek thought for a moment before speaking.
"I will send a quasi–Sage Lord to assist you in the shadows."
The White Lady paused to reflect before finally nodding her consent.
"Olympian God Mountain is about to descend into massive chaos, which will surely impact the entire Radiant God Realm!"
"This is the ideal moment for your return. If it becomes necessary, the Empire’s legions stationed in the Radiant God Realm can provide you with backup," Aurek added.
...
Was it truly possible for the White Lady to seize control of the Snow Kingdom?
And if she succeeded, would she remain aligned with the Empire’s interests?
Aurek remained skeptical—but it was a gamble worth taking.
Furthermore, the White Lady’s willingness to go back alone was not just based on empty words. She clearly possessed her own hidden cards and plans.
The mystery surrounding her was even more difficult to solve than that of Elizabeth.
The White Lady made no further requests and bowed with respect.
"The Radiant God Realm shall be the starting point for the Empire’s journey toward a much larger stage. I... shall wait for Your Majesty’s arrival in the Snow Kingdom!"
The White Lady then exited quietly.
Merolle had remained silent by the side the entire time, never intervening.
Having learned the White Lady’s true identity, she was also deeply stunned.
As a former general of the SpiritSong Kingdom, she was well aware of the power and prestige the Frostwinter Realm held within the Radiant God Realm.
The Snow Kingdom was incredibly potent—perhaps even exceeding Olympian God Mountain in certain areas—as it had birthed several legendary figures who had once dominated the world.
"Is Your Majesty not concerned that she might become an obstacle to the Empire once she recovers the Snow Kingdom?" Merolle asked respectfully.
"If she has hidden agendas, her knowledge of the Empire could make her a massive threat."
"Knowledge?" Aurek’s lips curled into a slight smirk.
Who could possibly comprehend a Foundation that produced three million Sage King–rank soldiers every single day?
He turned his gaze to Merolle. "Since I am confident enough to let her go back, I am equally confident I can bring her back here."
"Whatever state she returns in—that will be determined by her own choices."
"As for you, stay within the Divine Sanctuary for the time being and protect Moonshine Hall."
"I shall follow Your Majesty’s commands," Merolle answered with a bow.
...
In Cloudwood Province.
Standing outside the provincial governor’s estate, Governor Leonardo stood with a serious expression, hands at his sides. Behind him, a group of officials waited with humble postures.
"Sir, is it true that the Automaton Legion is actually coming?" one official whispered.
Leonardo looked toward the horizon and replied with gravity, "The order from the royal court is absolute. This Crossbridge Empire... it appears they are not as simple as they seem."
"But since the Automaton Legion is being deployed, no matter how special they are, only one fate awaits them—total destruction."
The official standing behind him couldn't suppress his pride.
A nephew of his had been lucky enough to be drafted into the Automaton Legion. This was not just a point of pride for his clan, but a standard of excellence admired by all citizens of Olympian God Mountain.
The Automaton Legion was the definition of invincibility—a symbol of overwhelming power—and represented the most untouchable status imaginable!
Countless noble families had spent all their wealth and still failed to produce even one candidate qualified for selection.
At this moment, throughout the streets and around the governor’s residence, many citizens were craning their necks in excitement.
Their eyes shone with devotion and respect, silently acknowledging the supreme position this legion held in their hearts.
In the sky, several powerful figures began to manifest.
There was the Golden-Plumed Gryphon, a beast king who ruled an entire territory.
The wealthiest merchant in Cloudwood Province, the master of gold coin, was also present.
Cain, the Wasteland Lord who governed the desolate starlands, had arrived as well.
These formidable beings—quasi–Divine Oracle and even Sacred Envoy–rank experts who were rarely seen—had all gathered after hearing the news.
Furthermore, the Sanctified Heart Garden had sent a Divine Radiant to serve as an official witness.
Thousandblade Spire had also dispatched elite representatives. Major factions from across Olympian God Mountain were all in attendance.
Every one of them had come to see the glory of the Automaton Legion with their own eyes!
As long as the God Mountain Imperial Guard remained absent, the Automaton Legion was the undisputed legend of the realm!
