Before the captain could respond，Samuel's thunderous voice resonated in the hearts of all believers: "Reinforcements have arrived! Annihilate these kobolds!"

  Hearing this divine proclamation，the previously anxious team members instantly steadied themselves. "It must be the reinforcements. Let's move out，" said Landry calmly. Staying sheltered in this depression would be cowardly now that help had arrived.

  When the blue-skinned bald humanoids cautiously emerged，they were stunned by the scene before them. None of the descending monsters they'd expected remained - only a field of kobold corpses littered the ground outside their hideout. Most bodies lay decapitated as if cleaved by giant blades，some bisected at the waist with entrails spilling across blood-soaked earth.

  Samuel watched William's swarm pour into the battlefield，combing through the chaotic warzone like a rake through grass. Where humans and kobolds had been locked in melee moments before，now only his followers remained standing amidst headless torsos and severed limbs.

  "This... is your true power，William?" Samuel trembled inwardly. The insectoid horde had swept through the battlefield in under a minute，demonstrating terrifyingly efficient slaughter capabilities that redefined his understanding of combat superiority.

  At Chen Hao's frontlines，the aerial locusts encountered even easier prey. Centaur formations had maintained disciplined ranks against kobold charges，preventing chaotic infiltration. Employing perfected woodland tactics，the flying swarm descended like a silver hurricane from above centaur lines. Extending razor-sharp dorsal sickles，they skimmed low across enemy ranks in precise formation.

  Anything projecting above locust flight height met relentless slicing. After 500，000 locusts passed，the transformed landscape dwarfed Samuel's battlefield in sheer awe. All trees over three feet stood neatly truncated，transforming dense forest into manicured plains. Centaurs standing over six feet tall gaped at vanishing woodlands collapsing toward the horizon.

  "This can't be!" Chen Hao's psychic scream echoed through the divine network. "How's this possible? We're all first-year students!" The orphaned William，without familial support，shouldn't possess such overwhelming power. These 2 million locusts represented merely a quarter of William's forces - against Chen Hao's entire 1-million-strong centaur army，they'd achieve laughable casualty ratios regardless of terrain.

  With William's intervention，the divine war concluded astonishingly fast. When locusts unearthed the enemy's divine core，Richard's serpentmen had barely advanced a third of their path. William immediately notified all three allies to consolidate forces for harvesting.

  As crystalline shards scattered through vibrating air，translucent barriers emerged across the collapsing realm. All four gods began absorbing terrain and resources. "Move faster!" William urged. "Domain collapse accelerates - we lose biomass with every second!"

  Galvanized，the trio abandoned hesitation. Within an hour，they'd stripped the dying realm bare. "By the Abyss!" Richard whooped as their divine domains separated. "Nearly 4，000 square miles gained! This is insane!"

  "All credit to the prodigy here，" Samuel nodded at William's shimmering avatar. "We merely distracted the kobolds，" William demurred，noting Chen Hao's darkened expression.

  "Enough pretenses，" Chen Hao's bitter interruption silenced celebrations. "Our forces aren't even same-tier combatants. Continue solo，William. Our presence is redundant."

  Before William could protest，Samuel concurred: "He's right. We're not children needing hand-holding. This experience alone was invaluable."

  "Go carve your legend，oh mighty one!" Richard laughed without malice. "We'll scream for help if drowning!"

  With final warnings exchanged，William's domain disengaged from the trio's alliance，drifting alone into the void's dark currents. Behind him，three intertwined divine sparks receded into cosmic distance，their owners already debating next targets - determined to prove themselves worthy of tomorrow's wars.
