Tick, tick, tick…
Accompanied by a slight sound of liquid dripping onto the ground, everyone clearly saw a stream of dark red, even black blood, flowing out from the wound in Xirik's abdomen where the hot sword pierced through it.
Without a doubt!
That is divine blood!
Blood that contains the most essential power of divinity and gods! As a member of the powerful divine power, the blood of the Prince of Lies, like that of the Lord of the Dawn, Lathander, possesses a powerful force that mortals cannot imagine.
You have to know that the latter was only injured by Silver Fire and the four drops of blood he shed could be called a divine weapon.
Its ability includes that anyone who can please the Lord of Dawn can obtain a similar "divine magic" effect through these drops of blood, and directly ask questions to get some "yes" or "no" answers from Losander.
If you are a believer, priest or paladin, you can also use the divine blood to cast "cure fatal injuries" four times a day, "resurrection of the dead" once a day, and "regeneration" and "recovery" to regenerate limbs or internal organs once every two days.
In addition to this, it has the ability to detect and identify lies, while rejecting the holdings of non-believers by raising its own temperature.
If just four drops of divine blood possess such power, then the power would naturally be even greater if the number were greater.
The most typical example is that the blood of the elven god Corellon and the orc god Gruumsh in a certain war came together to give birth to the ancient evil item - Ityak-Ortheel, also known as the Elf Devourer.
Like the Chaos Hound Kozef, this thing is also a quasi-divine monster that cannot be killed by normal means.
However, it takes a longer time for it to be resurrected in the Abyss, a full ten years, instead of just a few days like the former.
Currently, the Beast God Mara controls this ancient evil creature to a certain extent, and summons it to the elves' gathering place in Faerun every once in a while to kill and destroy it.
From this we can see that what is contained in divine blood is not much inferior to divine power, and it even has the ability to create divine life, ancient evil creatures and even demigods out of thin air.
At this moment, Xirik, who had been pierced in the abdomen by Zariel, was bleeding divine blood containing evil and crazy power. The blood was so much that it gathered into a large pool on the ground, and began to penetrate deep into the barren land, producing some kind of strange resonance with the entire noisy tunnel plane.
In just a few seconds, the area within a radius of several kilometers had already shown obvious changes other than being eroded by the divine blood.
Whether it was the other legions of petitioners around or the elemental creatures that followed the Prince of Wind Elemental across dimensions, they all instinctively sensed the danger and tried to get away as quickly as possible.
Unfortunately, those unlucky souls who didn't react fast enough or were too close were not so lucky.
They were pulled into the bottomless underground cracks by an inexplicable force.
The terrain of the Noisy Void Plane is extremely complex and varied, all of which are made up of giant tunnels that spiral and twist in solid rock.
Moreover, each tunnel is filled with strong winds, making it difficult for ordinary people to even stand steadily.
Therefore, if you don’t have strong flying ability, wanting to move quickly here is basically a daydream.
But Zariel, who was completely immersed in the pleasure of fighting and killing, did not notice this. Instead, he licked the divine blood on his palms and fingers, grinning in a creepy smile.
“Hahahahahaha!
Is this what God's blood tastes like?
It’s surprisingly good.
In this blood, I tasted fear.
Dear Lord of Lies, tell me, are you afraid of impending failure?
"Aa ...
Being injured by a hell-layer lord with quasi-divine power obviously made Xirik, who claimed to be "the only true god in the kingdom", fall into rage, and suddenly a huge energy vortex burst out from his body.
Even Zariel did not dare to take it head-on due to its astonishing destructive power. He instantly flew thousands of meters away with the high maneuverability provided by the oil jet engine.
You don't need to ask to know that this is a kind of "divine power storm" of extraordinary divine power.
The essence of this energy vortex is the power granted by the god's own camp, so it can cause unimaginable damage to the opposite camp.
Only those gods with enough influence and level can release it.
Obviously, Xirik's camp is evil and chaotic, so it is definitely a terrible threat to the devils of the lawful evil camp.
If an ordinary devil was caught in the storm, even the highest-level Hellfire would probably be turned into slag or powder in an instant.
The only ones who can fight against it to a certain extent are the Dukes of Hell and the Lords of the Planes who possess quasi-divine powers.
This is also why Zuo Si, after repeated consideration, agreed to Asmodeus to join Hell and become a great devil.
In front of a creature like God, if you don't have quasi-divine power to fight against it, it would be too easy to suffer a great loss in a head-on battle.
But once they have quasi-divine powers, the advantages of gods are no longer so obvious.
At least after becoming the lord of a level in hell, one can obtain the right to distribute the "holy energy" squeezed from the souls of the level that one rules.
This "divine energy" can fight against divine power to a certain extent.
Therefore, as long as any level lord in hell has enough energy reserves, he will be much more powerful than all the secondary demon lords in the abyss, as well as most of the not-so-famous lords of an entire level.
Even the gods from other worlds who are lower in rank than the Seraph gods would often go to the abyss with missions to kill a demon lord to improve their performance.
Of course, there are exceptions like the Three Giants of the Abyss, some more famous guys who almost monopolize the beliefs of their own race, and most likely have the dual identities of demon lords and gods like the spider goddess Rose.
After releasing a storm of divine power to force Zariel back, Xirik quickly stopped the bleeding wound in his abdomen and released an extremely huge black fog from his body, which gradually condensed into a human form.
His eyes were emitting a frightening red light, and he was muttering to himself like a lunatic.
“Unforgivable…
Unforgivable!
How dare you, a lowly bastard, attack and harm the great and only true God!
I will tear your body apart!
Eat your flesh and blood! Let your soul be completely annihilated after enduring endless pain!
I am High King Cyric! The source of all disputes and conspiracies in the world! The master of lies and deception!
No mortal or god can go against my will!
All you have to do is obey!"
“Hahahaha! It seems that what father said is right. You are really seriously ill.”
Zariel stood in the sky and laughed mockingly.
Not only her, but all the gods watching the battle from behind quickly expressed their contempt and disdain for this ignorant statement.
Although the gods had long known that Cyric's madness was caused by his reading of the "Cyric Scripture" compiled by his own lying priesthood, his current consciousness was not under the control of reason.
But the problem is, so many years have passed since the birth of the entire crystal wall, and even the gods have been replaced several times, but this is the first time in the world that a god has been brainwashed by the artifact he created.
This alone can be called the "shame of the divine world."
Not to mention the series of dazzling and astonishing operations that Xirik has performed since he was deified from a mortal.
Among them, the parts that slandered Io, the God above Gods, in the last few chapters of "The Book of Cyric" made everyone realize the highest level of seeking death.
Some gods with darker minds, such as Shar, have begun to suspect that Kelemvor's becoming the god of death and the resurrection of Bane, the god of tyranny, might be the work of His Majesty Io.
After all, in this crystal wall system, if you want to become a god, you must get his consent.
Otherwise, whether it is a mortal being deified, a god from another world wanting to enter, or a dead god being resurrected, it would be impossible to succeed.
Although this supreme god does not always express his opinion clearly, he usually just tacitly approves without saying a word.
It can tear apart the priesthood and power that originally belonged to the Three Gods of Death, and its essence is to weaken Xirik's original power at the pinnacle of powerful divine power.
"Shut up! How can a dirty devil like you evaluate the great Xirik?"
With a piercing scream, Xirik instantly used his divine power to teleport directly from his feet to Zariel's side, wielding the divine weapon in his hand and stabbing him fiercely.
The huge shadow behind him made the same move.
"You know what? You look just like a loser who's been hit in a sore spot."
Zariel sneered and said sarcastically, then frantically drew energy from the hell plane to strengthen himself, and went forward without any fear.
The next second...
boom!!!!!!!!!!!!
The hell energy symbolizing order collided directly with Xirik's crazy chaotic power.
The explosion that occurred in just an instant directly tore apart the huge tunnel under our feet, and the roar quickly spread far away along the medium.
Some of the weaker petitioners were immediately shattered into dazzling blood mist by just being touched by the sound waves and shock waves.
The dazzling white light is a thousand or ten thousand times brighter than the sun.
The rubble and dust in the sky mixed with the ubiquitous strong winds, eventually turning into a terrifying rubble storm.
The aftermath of the energy contained therein can easily destroy large groups of wind elemental creatures.
Through the sand, gravel and rain of stones falling from overhead, the gods clearly saw Zariel falling from the sky and hitting the ground hard.
There is no doubt that she lost in this direct collision of power, and lost quite badly.
Not only were most of the mechanical structures on its body completely collapsed and damaged, but almost all of the wings on its back were also broken.
A huge amount of black oil gushed out from his body, quickly contaminating and corroding the countless corpses and bones around him. Some of it even seeped into the ground and mixed with the divine blood that Xirik had previously shed.
Infection!
plunder!
absorb!
After realizing the huge gap in hard power between him and his opponent, Zariel completely activated the latent hive consciousness that originally belonged to the Phyrexian creatures.
She needed more and stronger power to continue fighting, or even defeat the terrifying god before her.
Obviously, Xirik showed his powerful divine power to the fullest in this attack.
Although he is stupid, ignorant, extremely inferior and arrogant, and currently insane, the divine power he possesses is not weak at all.
Just the opposite!
Because its crazy nature is very consistent with the characteristics of the Noisy Sky Tunnel, it also gains the blessing of the plane's will.
"The Daughter of War seems to be unable to hold on any longer. We have to go help her."
The god of justice Tyr was the first to draw out his beloved "Sword of Judgment" and prepare to join the battle.
But before he could teleport, the god of war Tempus stopped him and said in a joyful voice: "Don't worry! Zariel hasn't given up yet.
She also has a strong will to fight and a genuine desire to challenge opponents stronger than herself.
This is a great and inviolable spirit! The most precious quality in war!
In the name of the God of War!
I will give her my divine power!"
As the last word came out of his mouth, a blood-red beam of light composed of divine power fell from the sky and directly poured into the body of the white Khorne angel who was half-kneeling on the ground.
Almost at the same time, Bane raised his iron fist and said in a deep voice: "In the name of tyranny! I will also grant her divine power to help her gain enough strength to fight against Xirik."
moment!
Another black beam of divine power enveloped Zariel.
strength!
Incredibly powerful force! Zariel could even feel the oil in his body cheering, and transporting the divine power to the oil engine at an extremely fast speed, upgrading, transforming and strengthening his entire body.
Not only that!
The shiny oil that was integrated into the underground and was infecting the area also became extremely active with the help of divine power.
In just a few seconds, the mountain made up of millions or even tens of millions of corpses under her feet, as well as the divine blood that Xirik had flowed out before, were digested and absorbed all at once, continuously flowing into her body and being transformed into energy that was constantly compressed, compressed, and compressed again.
Thousands of corpses shrivel up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and black oil gushed out from the inside. In the end, even the bones were decomposed.
When all the corpses disappeared, all that could be seen was a huge lake of shimmering oil.
Such a weird and horrifying scene immediately made the coalition of gods feel an indescribable fear that could not be described in words.
As the only god of knowledge who knew part of the truth, Oghma did not dare to disturb Zuo Si who was reading "The True Biography of Xirik" to the Prince of Wind Element.
He could only suppress his curiosity and keep using his extraordinary power - true knowledge, trying to figure out what had happened to Zariel.
This ability is available only to a very small number of gods who possess the priesthood of "knowledge".
Soon, accompanied by the roar of a gasoline engine that was tens of thousands times larger than before, the damaged metal structure of Zariel's body was instantly covered by a white light armor that looked like bone.
At the same time, the vast amount of oil around it seemed to be affected by the strong gravitational force and rushed into its body at an incredible speed.
In the end, the mechanical Khorne angel with a metallic glow completely turned into a "Bone Demon", with a giant bone sword in one hand and a bone chainsaw that kept making a harsh noise in the other.
"Now, let's start the second round."
Zariel raised his head and announced to Xirik that the fight would continue.
At this moment, this crazy woman was flashing with the light of two kinds of divine power, as well as the blessing of the sacred energy from the hell plane. It was obvious that she was many times stronger than before.
"Damn Tempus! Bane! Just wait for me!"
Xirik glared at the God of War and the Dark Lord fiercely, and without saying a word, he once again raised the triangular sword in his hand, intending to gather divine power to completely kill the Devil Duke in front of him, or at least drive him back to the Hell plane.
But before he could lock on to the target, he found that Zariel disappeared from the spot in an instant.
Only then did he remember that the other party had just received an infusion of divine power and was no longer just a simple lord of hell. Instead, he was equivalent to a quasi-god or demigod who possessed abundant divine power but had no priesthood.
Unfortunately, it's all too late.
By the time Xirik remembered to bless himself with divine protection, Zariel, with a crazy and bloodthirsty smile on his face, had appeared behind him, and swung two weapons at the same time and chopped down heavily.
Ding!!! The King of Lies successfully blocked the opponent's giant sword with the long sword in his hand.
But he no longer had any weapon in his hands to stop the chainsaw coming at him from the side.
The next second...
Buzz buzz buzz buzz——
Tear!
“Aa ...
Along with the horrifying sound of the electric saw cutting flesh and the heart-wrenching screams, half of Xirik's waist had been cut open, and the dazzling dark red divine blood was splattering everywhere like it was free.
The battle-hardened Zariel didn't give him any time to think or react, and kicked him from mid-air to the ground with a backhand kick.
Bang! Once again, the "one true God" was forced to make a fool of himself in public, which was what he hated the most.
The only regret is that most of the wounds that seem fatal to mortals are actually no different from superficial injuries to creatures like gods.
Even if Zariel obtained the divine power bestowed by Tempus and Bane, he still could not truly harm the essence of the god Xirik.
In just a few seconds, this crazy guy got up from the ground again, roared hysterically, and rushed towards Zariel to fight with him.
However, this time, Cyric could no longer rely on his overwhelming advantage in strength with powerful divine power to crush the Angel of Khorne as he did before. Instead, he had to compete with them in combat skills and experience, and unsurprisingly, he suffered a great loss.
As one of the very few supreme commanders who likes to lead the charge in a bloody battle and doesn't care about his own life or death, Zariel's combat skills, experience and madness amazed even the god of war Tempus, not to mention Xirik who was just promoted from a mortal to a god.
Therefore, the latter would occasionally have a huge wound deep enough to see the bone cut on his body.
Sometimes Zariel would even take some damage himself as a price to lure Cyric into revealing a bigger flaw, so that he could take the opportunity to severely damage his opponent.
However, since she was not a genuine god after all, she could not directly attack and damage the spiritual essence like in the battle between gods, and eventually fell into a war of attrition of divine power.
Whenever this Khorne angel was about to collapse, one or two gods from the coalition would step forward to grant her divine power so that she could continue to hold back the lunatic Cyric.
On the other hand, after Zuo Si recited the entire "True Biography of Xirik", the Prince of Wind Element finally got rid of the influence of "Xirik Sutra" and regained his sanity. He immediately ordered all the wind element creatures under his command to launch a counterattack.
The demons, monsters, and petitioners loyal to Xirik were fighting side by side with the wind elements to resist the fierce attack of the coalition forces, and the next second they tasted the bitter fruit planted by their own gods.
The burning explosion caused by the death of Balor was like fireworks, blooming continuously on the battlefield.
One explosion can clear out everything within a radius of several dozen meters.
Every minute and every second, fresh lives are dying!
在头顶天空中交战的恶魔、魔鬼、风魔蝠、天使和各种怪物更是如同雨点般的往下落。
毫无疑问，这对于交战双方来说就是难以想象的巨大损失。
但唯独有一个人，正在享受着这场杀戮盛宴所带来的好处。
那就是从一开始就在疯狂吸收不同属性能量，简直都快要赢麻了的旅法师——左思。
尤其在成功帮助这位风元素亲王恢复清醒之后，他不仅成功废除希瑞克最后的底牌，同时还趁诸神不注意的时候与对方签订了一份秘密的契约。
现在，左思不但可以使用传奇魔法召唤这位最年轻元素亲王的分身，还获得了元素亲王的祝福，可以随心所欲控制风和气流，并且无视豁免强行魅惑任何风元素生物，包括强大的元素长老。
不仅如此！
只要他愿意还可以让自己变化成为无形的风，获得天生的隐形能力和飞行能力。
“感谢您的帮助，索斯阁下，不然我还要被谎言之王欺骗到什么时候。”
延——西——宾透过气流发出的嗡嗡声说道。
透过刚才那份秘密协议，她已经知晓了眼前这个外形如同人类的生物，实际上是地狱新生第九层的领主，仅次于阿斯摩蒂尔斯的二号人物。
左思微笑着回应道：“您太客气了，只不过是举手之劳而已。
毕竟不管是我也好，还是托瑞尔的众神也罢，都不希望与元素位面爆发战争。
相比起这个，我倒是很好奇您当初是怎么被诓骗阅读了那本邪恶的神书？”
“希瑞克那个阴险狡诈的家伙，故意把自己创造的神器伪装成一本写满了古老神秘知识的书，然后让我捡到并好奇的阅读了一遍。”
一提起这件事情，风元素亲王立刻变得懊恼且狂怒无比，就连身体周围的空气流动都变得格外快速。
与普通元素生命没什么脑子不同。
真正的元素亲王都是拥有极高智力，并且有些还非常擅长策划阴谋诡计。
比如说同为邪恶阵营、曾经与她还做过很长一段时间敌人的土元素王子，有着“石之暴君”称号的——欧雷莫奇。
所以他们在受到欺骗和算计的时候，往往会跟其他智慧生物一样产生很强烈的羞耻感。
“您在阅读前难道没有施展预言系法术对其进行侦测吗？”
左思难以置信的挑起眉毛，震惊于对方居然敢如此的“莽”。
那可是不折不扣的高等神器啊！ 换成自己的话，半路捡到这样一本书怎么也得搞清楚来历、确认没有什么严重的副作用之后才敢翻开阅读。
“我大意了。
毕竟在这个宇宙诞生到现在，还从未出现过像《希瑞克经》那样古怪且充满神经质的东西。
这玩意压根就不是正经神能制造出来的神器。
更像是一个玩笑，一个十分恶劣可怕的玩笑。
我真不敢想象，如果那本书在整个宇宙中流传开会是一副什么景象。”
元素亲王用十分懊恼的语气吐槽道。
左思深以为然的点了点头：“确实，希瑞克的脑回路跟正常的神不太一样。
甚至就连许多住在无底深渊之中混乱邪恶的神，还有号称最疯狂的恶魔王子狄摩高根，与他一比都显得那么理智。
我觉得也许去深渊做个恶魔领主更适合他一点。
毕竟深渊意志就喜欢这种不管做什么都永远会出人意料的神经病兼疯子。”
“我也觉得希瑞克适合去无底深渊安家。
这家伙能在短时间内收拢如此多的恶魔为自己效力，已经能够说明很多问题。
对了，接下来的战阵还需要我帮忙吗？”
眼见远处战场防线已经完全崩溃，无论是国度内的祈并者还是临时拼凑起来的乌合之众都在夺路狂奔，风元素亲王立马用不是很确定的语气询问道。
很显然，风元素军团的临阵倒戈，彻底摧毁了希瑞克想要凭借主场优势击退诸神联军的企图。
此时此刻，他手下的军队已经彻底崩溃再也没有了半点战斗意志，整个国度都暴露在联军的攻击之下。
之前还躲在后面保存实力的魔鬼军团，这会儿已经如同猛虎出闸，通过传送魔法直接出现在对方身后，专门挑那些实力不强的祈并者下手。
没过一会儿功夫，就有数以百万、千万计的倒霉蛋遭到攻击和俘虏。
为了防止出现逃跑的情况，魔鬼还非常贴心准备了坚固的镣铐，将这些家伙的脚一个接一个锁死在一起。
如此一来只要派出少数军队，就能成功将其押送回地狱位面。
左思眯起眼睛大概判断了一下局势，很快回应道：“不必了。接下来将要上演的将会是托瑞尔世界诸神的内战。身为元素领主，您没有卷入进来的必要。”
“既然如此，那我就先走一步了。记得有什么有趣的神秘知识给我一份，我愿意用风元素位面的特产跟你交换。”
说完这句话，这位元素亲王便化作一阵狂风消失得无影无踪。
与其一起消失得，还有大量的风元素长老和其他风元素生物。
她前脚才刚离开不到半分钟，魔法女神午夜和死亡之神克兰沃便凭空出现在左思的身边。
前者更是直截了当的开口说道：“索斯，让扎瑞尔撤下来吧，她今天做的已经够多了，接下来交给我们。”
“没错！我跟希瑞克可是有很多陈年旧账需要算一算。”
克兰沃眼睛里闪烁着深深地仇恨。
与前两代性格阴沉的死神都截然不同，这位可是标准的战士出身，行事作风有时候相当的简单粗暴。
他才成为死神没多久，就派遣了一个化身前往无底深渊的某个层面开“无双”，愣是把其中趁乱进入朦胧之域掠夺灵魂最多的一个恶魔领主砍死了。
是的！
你没看错！
在许多人眼中唯恐避之不及的深渊意志，克兰沃压根没当一回事。
而且根据远古死亡之神耶格透露的信息，这位新死神打算把猎杀恶魔领主这项有益身心健康的运动持续下去。
以后只要有恶魔敢成规模的进入朦胧之域，那么克兰沃就随时有可能再派遣一个化身去斩杀背后策划这一切的领主。
他要用杀戮和死亡这类对方能听得懂的语言来告诉其他领主，托瑞尔世界的冥界从今以后不是恶魔们想来就来、想走就走的公共厕所。
不得不说，这对于凡人而言绝对是好到不能再好的消息。
他们再也不用担心从死亡之后进入朦胧之域到抵达审判之城这段路，会遇到恶魔劫掠最终被带去深渊腐化、堕落变成可悲的幼虫。
“如您二位所愿！”
眼见这对强大神力的情侣已经做好了接手的准备，左思立刻给正在享受与希瑞克战斗、厮杀的扎瑞尔下达了撤退命令。
尽管后者稍微有些心不甘情不愿，但还是最终还是选择服从命令，瞬间一个闪身避开对手的攻击，随后启动烁油引擎向后飞去。
正当希瑞克想要抓住这个机会发动反击时，突然感觉有两股恶意满满的神力锁定了自己。
下一秒……
魔法女神和死神一左一右将他夹在了中间。
“希瑞克！你还记得在动荡之年欠下的债吗？”午夜冷笑着开口质问道。
“债？哈！能别逗我发笑吗？”
希瑞克眼睛里闪烁着憎恨与恶毒的光芒。
对于他而言，没有什么比看到曾经的两个队友成为跟自己一样的强大神力更难以接受的事情了。
“午夜，别跟这家伙废话。等我们将其按在地上暴揍的时候，他自然就什么都会想起来了。”
说罢，克兰沃便抡起重剑砍了过去。
希瑞克二话不说便举起长剑招架，结果这一下是挡住了，但却没能挡住魔法女神的法术。
只见一道骇人的蓝光在空气中闪过，紧跟着他整个人便被一个蕴含着神力的巨大力场巴掌死死抓住。
克兰沃抓住了找个机会，抡起剑柄便狠狠砸向希瑞克的脸。
砰！砰！砰！砰！砰！ 他的每一击都会把后者那张苍白且尖酸刻薄的脸打到变形，甚至偶尔还会飞溅出牙齿和血浆。
从那熟练的配合不难看出，午夜与克兰沃两人不仅仅是情侣那么简单，而且早在还是凡人一起冒险的时候就建立了非凡的默契。
甚至都不需要语言和眼神上的交流，直接就能知道对方下一步想要干甚，自己应该如何配合。
再加上掌控魔网的魔法女神实质上拥有神上之神以下最强大的力量，所以希瑞克不出意外的成为了克兰沃和午夜发泄内心怒火的沙包。
最惨的是，无论他想要攻击还是防御，都要先过死神克兰沃这一关，根本无法对午夜造成哪怕一丁点的威胁。
Anyone with a little common sense is well aware of the serious consequences of allowing spellcasters to release spells at will.
So the scene looked like Cyric was being controlled by Midnight using various divine spells, and then had to endure the beating from Kelemvor.
You have to know that as the goddess of magic, Midnight is completely free from any restrictions when casting spells.
Whether it's ten-, eleven-, or twelve-ring magic forbidden to mortals, or raw energy like silver fire drawn from the core of the magic web, you can use it however you want.
Soon, Bane, the god of tyranny who also had a grudge against Cyric, joined the beating wielding iron gloves.
The fourth person to take action was Shar, the goddess of the night, who had the attribute of holding a grudge to the maximum.
She would never forget how harshly Xirik had scolded her before.
In short, the time to take revenge has finally come.
I don't know if it was a pre-planned discussion, but all the gods targeted Xirik's disgusting face when they attacked.
After a while, the originally thin face of this man who claimed to be "the only true God in the kingdom" swelled up into a pig's head.
Zuo Si, the instigator, stood not far away, watching with great interest the show of the gods beating up Xirik.
He even recorded it all through magic, intending to bring it back to the continent of Faerun and play it repeatedly to the people in the area under his rule, to ensure that this guy's faith would never be revived on the West Coast.
After all, faith is a kind of idealistic force.
This is why almost all gods must maintain their majesty and mystery, so that mortals will feel awe when they see them.
If the scene of Xirik being beaten by the gods and nearly unable to take care of himself was broadcast, it would basically be social death.
Any mortal with a little common sense would not choose such a guy who has neither face nor dignity as his patron saint.
In this way, Xirik's influence will become smaller and smaller, until it is reduced to a very small church that can only survive by hiding in the dark like a rat.
Thinking of this, an extremely sinister smile appeared on Zuo Si's face.
"Father, why don't you let me continue fighting that mad god?"
Zariel, who had reverted to his heavy mecha form, asked in a low voice.
Zuo Si replied softly, "Because it's time for this farce to end.
With the power you currently possess, it is enough to fight against the gods to a certain extent.
But trying to kill a powerful divine being is almost impossible.
So instead of continuing to waste time and remaining divine power, it would be better to let the gods vent their inner dissatisfaction and anger towards Xirik.
By the way, the No. 1 sparkling oil in your body should have mutated under the influence of the divine power and divine blood, right?"
"Yes.
The shiny oil in my body has preserved all the divine blood without a drop left.
At the same time, a portion of the divine power was preserved.
Right now they are mutating and evolving at an unimaginable speed.
A new type of sparkling oil should be formed in one or two months at most.
Father, I have a feeling that this new type of sparkling oil can compress the energy squeezed from fallen souls and transform it into true divine power.
This means that we can mass-produce powerful legions that are powerful enough to pose a threat to the gods.
Maybe……
You should also try to accept the transformation of the Shuo Oil, so that you can gain power comparable to or even superior to the gods."
As he said this, Zariel's eyes sparkled with excitement and enthusiasm.
In her opinion, it was really puzzling and regrettable that Zuo Si, as the creator, did not accept Shuo You's transformation.
"Don't worry. The current Shuo Oil is far from perfect. It needs to be improved and evolved to meet my requirements."
The corner of Zuo Si's mouth twitched slightly, and he made up an excuse to get away with it.
Transform yourself into a half-organic, half-mechanical form, just like Yawgmoth did back then?
Don't be ridiculous! He intends to continue on the path of a planeswalker, and achieve a perfect and eternal state without any flaws in both body and spirit, just like the old dragon Nicol Bolas and the spirit dragon Ugin.
Unless the Shuo Oil could evolve into a divine power, existing and being utilized in the form of pure energy, Zuo Si would not inject the black viscous liquid into his body.
"Shuoyou is not perfect enough?! I see..."
Zariel's face showed an expression of sudden enlightenment. He then knelt on one knee and kissed the back of Zuo Si's hand affectionately, and solemnly assured: "Please rest assured. I swear on my life and soul that I will continue to improve the No. 1 Shining Oil until it meets your requirements."
"What I have in my hands is not just No. 1 Shining Oil.
When the oil in your body stabilizes, remember to bring me a few samples.
I need to use it to promote the evolution of other models of Shuoyou.
I want to see if Shuoyou can infect creatures like gods after learning how to transform and use divine power."
As he spoke, Zuo Si reached out and opened the heavy armor covering Zariel's body. His right index finger gently stroked the fair skin under the other's neck, and finally stopped on the protruding huge oil engine.
Through the translucent isolation layer, he could clearly see the boiling hot oil inside, which was constantly intertwined with the divine blood dropped by Xirik.
To be precise, Shuo You was trying to use the remaining divine power to decompose and absorb the power contained in the divine blood.
It may be that Yawgmoth's rule over Phyrexia has caused him to invade too many time and space and he has fought against creatures like gods. It may also be that he has a deep understanding and research on the spark of the ancient mages, so the spark oil can actually absorb and transform divine blood to a certain extent.
Although this process is extremely slow, every time a portion of the divine blood is successfully digested and absorbed, Shuo Oil's working efficiency will increase exponentially.
At the same time, Zariel's body and soul will become stronger and stronger.
If nothing unexpected happens, when all the divine blood is absorbed, this white Khorne angel will reach a level equivalent to that of an ancient evil or a lesser divine power.
“The world is becoming more and more interesting.”
Zuo Si pursed his lips and revealed a playful expression, then retracted his fingers and looked into the distance, admiring the crazy behavior of the Mechanical Angel Legion and the Devil Legion working together to scrape the ground three feet deep.
At this moment, the huge fortress-like palace that the "Only True God" had built for himself had disappeared, leaving only a deep pit that looked like ruins, and even the foundation had been dug out.
As for the things inside, they had all been emptied out long ago.
Any valuable minerals in the country have been occupied by a large number of oil-burning machines and are being exploited in a predatory manner.
If mining is too difficult, just pour crude oil into it.
