Reborn with Infinity Skill Points, I Enslaved All Universes-Chapter 246 --Shadow of the Angels

The Blood Clan.

Charlotte looked up toward the sky.

Just moments ago, she had completed her Star Upgrade Quest.

But at this very moment, her expression was anything but joyful—because she could see, looming high above, countless Angel of Gold and Silver figures blanketing the sky!

What kind of joke was this?

It had only been a few minutes, and yet the Angel of Gold and Silver had already filled the entire sky. From this distance, they looked like vast swarms of golden locusts.

However, these angels did not immediately descend. They merely floated silently in the air, suspended above like a divine curtain, motionless.

Yet simply by standing there, the Angels of Gold and Silver exuded a crushing pressure that sent chills down everyone’s spine.

Charlotte unconsciously clenched her fists.

"Crossbridge was right... I’m still far too weak."

At the same time, the inter-species communication network had erupted into chaos.

"What the hell is going on?!"

"Dear god! Are there actually this many Angels of Gold and Silver?!"

"I can’t even count them! There’s no end in sight!"

"Are we talking about billions here? Surely at least a few billion, right?"

"A few billion? Bro, you clearly have no grasp of scale. I specialize in spatial measurement. The current count of Angels has already surpassed 400 billion—and the number is still climbing!"

"What did you just say?! 400 billion?! Come on, don’t mess with us! The entire human population is only 30 billion!"

"You’re wrong. To be precise, it’s already passed 500 billion now."

"..."

In an instant, all sentient beings across the myriad races instinctively turned their gazes skyward.

The number of Angels of Gold and Silver was far beyond their worst imaginations.

To put it plainly, the total population of all the intelligent species across the cosmos combined didn’t even exceed 500 billion.

And yet the Angels of Gold and Silver... were still multiplying!

How are we supposed to fight this?

This has to be a joke, right? A millennial-scale Apocalypse like this—how could the myriad races possibly survive it?

For a moment, a sense of profound dread was etched into the faces of everyone across the universe. The expression on the Human Emperor’s face was particularly grim—darker than ever before.

Beside him, the emperors of the various races had already convened.

"Human Emperor, what should we do next?" asked the Demon Emperor. His usual joking demeanor was gone—his face had turned cold and stern.

"There are so many Angels of Gold and Silver... Even if all our awakeners fought with everything they had, it would be hopeless!"

"If each one of them is over level 200, then just a few million would be enough to wipe out humanity."

"Sure, humanity has grown exponentially lately. We now have hundreds of thousands of awakeners over level 200."

"But even so, when compared to the overwhelming might of the Angels of Gold and Silver, it’s nothing. A drop in the ocean."

And they all knew—the only reason humanity had advanced this quickly... was because they were effectively cheating.

With Daniel’s use of the Infinite Divine Temple and the blessings of the Void Tower, humanity’s awakeners had advanced at supernatural speed.

As for those Angels floating silently in the sky—not a single one of them was below level 200.

"Human Emperor... it feels like we’ve already reached a dead end."

A grave expression lined Human Emperor Odin’s face.

"So what if we have?" he said solemnly. "As rulers of our races, even if it costs us our lives... we must never give up."

Though those were his words, his body trembled ever so slightly.

Because even in his heart—he could not see a path forward. Not a glimmer of hope.

The current situation, without the slightest exaggeration, was an extinction-level catastrophe for all species across the universe.

If there was still a single thread of hope left... it lay with Daniel.

But with things as they were—what difference would Daniel’s return even make?

The Angels of Gold and Silver now filled the sky completely. Even if one were to unleash the power of a Primordial Core Weapon, it wouldn’t be enough to wipe them all out.

And once these angels fully descended, any attempt to use the Primordial Core Weapon would risk massive collateral damage—likely taking innocent lives with them.

From what they could see now, their only possible hope of turning the tide... lay in the use of the Primordial Core Weapon.

Without it, even if Daniel returned in person, there would be no way for him to eliminate so many Angels of Gold and Silver alone.

Standing to the side, the Blood Emperor also bore an expression heavy with unease.

He turned to the Human Emperor and asked, "Can you tell me—where has Lord Daniel gone?"

The Human Emperor shook his head expressionlessly.

"I’m not exactly sure either. But didn’t Daniel just say it himself? He needs to leave temporarily... and during this time, it’s up to us to hold the line."

Upon hearing these words, despair crept over the faces of the assembled emperors.

Was this some kind of cruel joke?

Over 500 billion Angels of Gold and Silver were hovering just above their heads—and they were expected to "hold the line"?

The only silver lining—if one could call it that—was that the Angels of Gold and Silver had yet to descend en masse. They merely waited in silence, as if anticipating something.

Occasionally, a few angels would drop down from the sky.

Fortunately, dealing with those few wasn’t a major challenge for the gathered emperors.

Thanks to the teleportation aid of Anygate, they could arrive at various locations with great speed.

But even then, the number of descending angels was steadily increasing.

The emperors of the myriad races were quickly becoming overwhelmed.

Still, they understood clearly—As emperors of their kind, they had to stand at the front. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

If they dared to retreat even half a step, it would be a catastrophic blow to their people’s morale—a wound the race might never recover from.

"No matter what, it’s our turn to step forward."

"This might be our final battle. Maybe it won’t change the ending... but at the very least, we’ll have given it everything we had."

"Let’s hope... after this war, we’ll still be able to sit here and talk again."

...

At this point, the angels descending from the sky weren’t too many. In fact, many of them hadn’t even reached level 200.

To the myriad awakeners, these Angels of Gold and Silver weren’t entirely impossible to defeat. For the stronger ones among them, dispatching such enemies was still manageable.

Especially for those who were followers of the Infinite Divine Temple—awakeners who had reached level 200 and beyond. For them, cutting through these angels was like slicing through butter.

After all, they carried the divine buffs granted by the Infinite Divine Temple.

Even those who hadn’t yet reached level 200 could still challenge these angels across levels. As long as they were under the influence of the temple’s divine buffs, slaying a level 200 angel wasn’t out of the question.

So overall, although the pressure was immense, the myriad races had not yet lost the upper hand. In fact, they faintly held the advantage on the battlefield for now.

But everyone knew the truth—

Those dense legions of angels still suspended in the sky... they were the real threat. The true enemy had yet to descend.
