Lu Chengshuang has transmigrated to a magic continent for 18 years. He possesses a noble identity, being not only a prince of the empire but also the Saint Son of Light for the Church. He thought t...
Chapter 28 Chapter 28 Can I snatch you away from me?
The outskirts of the Dark Swamp.
The God of Light looked at the group of swamp monsters in the swamp that were gnawing on his human body. He had used his body for more than a hundred years, but he didn't expect that the end result would be like this.
"Yo, a new way to die has been unlocked." This was the Dark God's slightly provocative voice.
"This is all thanks to you, Cecil. Are you too idle?" Looking at the knight's suit slowly being swallowed by the swamp, he raised his finger slightly and took back the space ring. There were still a lot of food that Lu Chengshuang liked in it.
The Dark God did not reply, but just watched the swamp monsters that were scrambling to eat Cecil's body. After enjoying a delicious meal, their bodies began to roll over and their internal aura began to rise. The swamp monsters that were originally only level four were all upgraded.
"As expected of a body nourished by your soul for nearly a hundred years, your body is in great shape." Still in a nonsensical tone, the Dark God licked his lips as he watched the swamp beasts level up one after another. "The meat of these level six beasts is even more tender than that of level five."
The Dark God also raised his finger slightly, and a crack appeared in the surrounding space. A masked corpse floated out from the crack. "Another great tonic."
Watching the swamp monsters charging forward once more, the Dark God took the mask from the corpse and handed it to the Light God standing beside him. "This mask is for you. You might need it later."
"Is the new human body ready?" After taking the mask, the God of Light glanced at the God of Darkness beside him, not knowing what the other party was going to do.
During the God Selection War, the fight between the Beastmen and the Humans was the most intense. However, the Beastmen at least chose the Beast God, while the Humans, despite having the largest base number, had the lowest strength.
In the fight for the position of winner, the human race suffered the most casualties.
In the end, due to the conspiracy of the orcs and goblins, the human race participating in the God's Choice War was completely wiped out.
There were no survivors among the human race's selection of warriors, and in desperation, the God of Creation directly divided his soul into three parts. One part fell into a deep sleep, and the other two turned into gods of the human race.
Because they were born from the Creator God at the same time, apart from the difference in personality, the two have the same appearance.
After his birth, because of his relatively gentle character, he chose the position of God of Light. On the other hand, because of his gloomy, paranoid, and cunning character, he chose the position of God of Darkness.
The God of Creation's real name is Cecil. After choosing the position of God, the God of Darkness directly chose Cecil as the name of the God of Darkness, while he himself arbitrarily changed the order of his names and chose Cecil as his real name.
Later, after being the God of Darkness for three thousand years, he had seen enough of the intrigues among various races and the alternation of the sun and moon. As the god who protects the human race, he could not choose to fall into sleep.
Over the long years, without the flow of colors, time has turned into ink that never dries up, imprinting the trajectory of the past day after day. Even the intrigues and conspiracies among various races remain unchanged, becoming an infinite nesting doll.
Before he could develop more dark emotions and start a war between light and darkness, the God of Darkness found the God of Light and proposed to exchange the throne.
So Cecil and Cecil exchanged their positions every fifty years, which added a touch of color to this monotonous world.
But that alone is not enough.
So during the fifty years that Cecil was the Dark God, he split his soul, gave the new soul the best qualifications, put all his negative emotions into the new soul, and gave the new soul the name of Acesi and the position of the Son of God.
The Dark God, who had abandoned his gloomy and paranoid personality and was no longer troubled by various negative emotions, found new fun in this long life as a god.
Looking at the soul that carries all his dark sides and negative emotions, he racked his brains to overthrow him and replace him.
These long years seem to have been injected with new vitality and vigor.
The Dark God looked at the tonic thrown in, which was eaten by the swamp monsters until not even his clothes were left. His body could be used longer than the one of the Light God, so it was more nourishing.
The swamp monster, which had just been upgraded to a higher level, began to gain momentum again and its size also began to grow. Soon, the level five swamp monster was upgraded to level six.
Then a black light flashed across the swamp monsters, and several swamp monsters that had just been upgraded to level six lost their breath.
"Give me your space ring." The Dark God did not answer the question of the Light God. Instead, he took the space ring from the Light God and put the swamp monsters that had lost their breath into the space.
The God of Light watched the Dark God perform a series of smooth movements and said, "Your new body is based on the appearance of Cecil!"
Affirmative tone, ever since the Dark God threw all those gloomy and paranoid personality emotions into Asesi's body, the personality emotions that were left behind liked to find all kinds of fun for themselves.
Just as I said, this is definitely something the Dark God can do.
"Don't worry, I will disguise myself well and will never let His Royal Highness the Holy Son find out."
God of Light: “…” Is this a well-disguised question?
Dark God: "As for our relationship, you are me and I am you. I know exactly how you got along with each other before."
"Besides, when I eat meat, you can enjoy it too." The Dark God's figure began to fade. "In two years, I will be the God of Light. Consider this my early practice."
The God of Light looked at the disappearing God of Darkness. This was the first time he showed any emotional fluctuations since he became a god. He raised his hand and looked at the mask given to him by the God of Darkness, and his figure began to slowly disappear.
Could it be that His Royal Highness the Son of God really couldn't discover it?
This can't be 100% certain.
.
Lu Chengshuang played single-player games alone in the house for three days. There were only a few games, and after playing for so many days, he began to feel bored and tired.
The weather outside was still gloomy, and from time to time one could hear the rustling sound of wind blowing through leaves.
It's rare to have no one around me. I feel like time is getting longer and longer as I walk alone.
When they reached the door, there was nothing worth admiring in the Dark Church. Lu Chengshuang couldn't help but continue shaking the God of Light pendant on his chest: "Chat with me."
In the Divine Domain of Light, amidst a patch of dawnflowers, the God of Light, who was kneading his new body, heard Lu Chengshuang say, "Your Highness, are you bored?"
There was also wind in the divine realm. The gentle wind made the dawn flowers sway constantly, and blew many fallen petals into the air. The air was filled with the fragrance of the dawn flowers.
Not far away, the Warcraft cubs that had hatched some time ago were playing and frolicking, nibbling on flower petals.
The bravest Holy Light Dragon cub, upon seeing the figure of the God of Light, could not help but fly forward and howl at the God of Light.
"Yes." Lu Chengshuang leaned against the door, listening to the voice of the God of Light in his mind, and asked, "You've been to the Dark Church before. What's fun here?"
"There's nothing fun, but the meat of the swamp monsters in the Dark Swamp is quite good. I'll roast it for you later." Hearing the Holy Light Dragon's howling, the God of Light reached out and teleported the Holy Light Dragon out of the Light Divine Realm. "Your Highness, you can play with the Holy Light Dragon cub for a few days first."
Lu Chengshuang looked at the Holy Light Dragon cub that suddenly appeared in his hand. Although it had been hatched for less than a month, its body had grown a lot bigger. It flapped its wings and howled excitedly.
It's just a cub, there's nothing fun about it. If it were an adult Holy Light Dragon, it could be a dragon knight.
Now, watching the Holy Light Dragon cub flying around, all the shiny objects in the house began to disappear one by one, even the lit magic lamp was caught by the dragon.
"Don't you like the Holy Light Dragon?" The voice of the God of Light sounded in his mind again. The Holy Light Dragon that was flying around in the house quickly disappeared. "Where is that furry monster?"
A cat-shaped monster, the Shadow Cat, appeared in front of Lu Chengshuang.
The Shadowcat is roughly the same size as cats on Blue Star, but is still a cub and will continue to grow. This feline monster is the size of a tiger when fully grown, but is a vegetarian. The Dawnflowers of the Light Realm, imbued with divine power, are its favorite food, and therefore grow the fastest.
"Are these dawn flowers?" With the appearance of the Shadow Cat, there was a large bunch of dawn flowers in front of Lu Chengshuang.
"I will decorate a room for you." The God of Light knew that Lu Chengshuang didn't like the style of the room that the Dark Church was currently living in.
Lu Chengshuang held up a bouquet of dawn flowers. The soft milky white glow of the dawn flower petals pierced through the stagnant shadows, adding a touch of light and bright color to the gloomy environment around it.
She asked the maid to bring a vase and put the dawn flower into the vase. The room was missing a lot of shiny metal objects, and the magic lamp taken away by the Holy Light Dragon, so it seemed dimmer, but it also made the dawn flower in the vase more bright.
But Lu Chengshuang was still bored. The spotted cat rubbed against Lu Chengshuang's legs, looking very intimate. He couldn't help but ask the God of Light Pendant again: "Is there really no place to kill time in the Dark Church?"
“Not that I don’t.”
After all, the followers of the Dark Church love nothing more than sharing all sorts of interesting gossip. "There's a place in the Dark Church dedicated to gathering all sorts of intelligence, and you can hear a lot of interesting stories there."
Lu Chengshuang: “Where is it?” Isn’t this just eating melons and watching a show? It can definitely kill time.
Suitable for him.
A small arrow appeared on the ground, specially marked by the God of Light.
Follow the small arrow and you will soon arrive in front of a gray building.
There are people coming and going at the entrance of the building, and it looks very lively at first glance. Standing at the door, you can hear exclamations and laughter coming from inside.
As the Holy Son of the God of Light, Lu Chengshuang's appearance in front of these dark believers inevitably attracted a lot of attention, but soon these believers were attracted by various information from other people.
"Have you heard? A commission our Saint Son posted to the Adventurer's Guild was actually completed."
"The Water of Light quest, right? I heard that the adventurer team wasn't very high level, but they lucked out and found the Water of Light outside the ruins of the God's Chosen War."
"I don't know what the point of Saint Acesi issuing these commissions is. The elders will definitely be unhappy again. After all, the rewards for completing the commissions are all borne by the Dark Church."
"There's nothing we can do about it. I heard that this was approved by the Dark God. Even if the elders are heartbroken, they dare not go against the will of the God."
As soon as he walked into the gate, Lu Chengshuang heard people talking about Asesi inside. He stopped and was about to continue listening when a commotion happened not far away. Then, Lu Chengshuang saw Asesi slowly walking towards him.
Coming back a little fast.
That's right, the reason why this building is so crowded with people and has so many followers of the Dark Church is because there is a teleportation array hall at the innermost part of the building, which is the most suitable place for collecting intelligence.
And Asesi, who was not far away, also saw Lu Chengshuang standing at the door.
"Your Highness, have you come here specially to pick me up?" Asesi walked up to Lu Chengshuang, stopped, and leaned forward. Perhaps because another commission had been completed, the smile on his face was confident and calm, and he looked no different from a normal person.
This is installed again.
Lu Chengshuang didn't really want to be nice: "I'm waiting for Cecil."
Acesi: "It's okay, I can think of it as His Highness waiting for me. After all, we don't know when your Cecil will arrive."
"Besides, I can wait with you. Once Cecil arrives, I'll have gathered everything I need."
"After so many years of planning, it seems that everything has gone smoothly since I met you, Your Highness."
"So, Your Highness the Holy Son."
"Wait until I become the new Dark God." Asesi lowered his voice, his scalding breath laced with crazy babbling brushed past his earlobe, and his words exploded directly beside Lu Chengshuang's ears. "Then I will snatch you away and make you my Son of Darkness, okay?"
