Those special magic crystals that were originally used to block and imprison the God Killer's body also quickly shattered under this attack and were sucked into the interior of the sphere. From a distance, it looked like they were being swallowed.
But in fact, the crystal fragments that shattered in the explosion actually entered the dark void along the channel under the influence of huge gravity.
Bertrand Lederer merged his soul and consciousness into a spherical black hole, using the latter as a yo-yo-like weapon to throw out and then retrieve.
Although a part of him had been affected by the Dark Void, he had never taken the final step, which was to completely merge with the Dark Void and become a true void creature.
Therefore, this guy still retains a considerable degree of rationality, thinking and memory, and has not become an incomprehensible and unreasonable existence like a real void creature.
But at the same time, precisely because it is not a complete void creature, it has no way to truly control the destructive black hole dimensional channel itself, let alone the original matter and chaotic mana turbulence.
Simply put, Bertrand Lederer at this moment is like an illiterate who has obtained a powerful nuclear warhead.
Without the detonation code or knowing what this thing is, simply treating it as a heavy enough hammer or meteor hammer to hit people is a typical waste of resources.
But the problem is that because the tonnage of the nuclear warhead is large enough, it can cause enough destructive power even if it is used as a hammer to hit a person.
As he was unsure whether the body and passage formed by the God Slayer in the material world when he descended were stable, Zuo Si did not dare to try to go in and see what was inside. He could only ride on the Chaos Hound and jump up and down to avoid it.
He also had to think about what to do next in order to separate this madman and psychopath from the black hole, and at the same time seal the extra-dimensional channel connecting to the dark void into the Chengyang Sword.
Otherwise, the unintentional leakage of energy turbulence and primordial matter alone could cause unimaginable impact and damage to the continent of Faerun and even the planet Toril.
At this moment, Bertrand Lederer was like a parasite attached to the edge of a huge black hole. He laughed hysterically while floating around the black hole and chasing Zuo Si.
"Why are you running? Don't you claim to be a planeswalker and have the privilege of entering the Dark Eternity? Come and show it to me! If you really have such power, you should not be afraid of this great power that is above the gods! So you are just bluffing and lying, trying to snatch it from me through deception."
Needless to say, this guy had a lot of conspiracies and tricks in his mind, and he directly regarded Zuo Si as an ambitious person like himself who was eager to gain control of the body of the God Killer.
Moreover, under the influence of long-term loneliness and dark void, his mental state has become extremely unstable, extreme, crazy, and capricious.
The slightest external stimulation will immediately produce a series of incredible reactions.
However, Bertrand Lederer was not wrong about one thing, that is, Zuo Si was indeed here to seize this destructive black hole-like dimensional channel.
But unfortunately, with the speed and the way he controlled the spherical black hole, it was simply a pipe dream for him to catch up with the Chaos Hound who could switch to ghost state at any time.
Even among the gods, few dared to guarantee that they could move faster than Kozef.
So although Zuo Si, who was riding on the dog, looked very embarrassed and as if he had no power to fight back, he could only hide everywhere.
But in fact, the situation is extremely safe. From the time the opponent launched the attack until now, he has always maintained a short safe distance, and no matter how hard he chased, he could not catch up.
The only thing to worry about is that this crystal prison located in an independent demiplane doesn't seem to be able to hold out for much longer.
After all, the channel formed when the God Butcher descends will not only release energy and matter from the dark void, but will also absorb a large amount of matter and energy, creating a void effect that is more terrifying than a vacuum.
Just like the places devoured by the Eldrazi will become a pale world.
"Give up on merging with the Dark Void, and instead just control this interdimensional channel and use yourself as a connector?"
After squinting his eyes and observing for a while, Zuo Si finally figured out Bertrand Lederer's condition.
Combined with the previous conversation, it can be basically concluded that he has no idea what the "God Slayer" Pandrem is.
In other words, even the Imaskar Empire's artificer who summoned it as a weapon to fight against the gods didn't know.
Both of them mistook this extra-dimensional passage that looked like a destructive black hole as Pandrem's body, and did not realize that the consciousness that had been stripped of the seal was the true body.
In addition, it seems that other mortals except the planeswalkers are completely unaware of the existence of the Dark Void.
If they ventured into the Dark Void they would be killed in a very short time, and would have no way of telling anyone what they had seen and observed.
But if you don't go in, you will never be able to detect what's going on inside through magic or other means.
The most important thing is that Zuo Si figured out how Bertrand Lederer was connected to the extra-dimensional channel. What he had to do next was to enter the black hole and peel out the other party's soul, leaving only the destructive black hole itself.
Without any hesitation!
He directly ordered the Chaos Hound to continue to dodge, then he stimulated the power of the spark to the limit and jumped directly into the black hole.
Just as expected, as soon as I came in, I felt the ubiquitous chaos and distortion as I traveled through the dark void, as well as the erratic ether matter, raw entropy, and mana turbulence.
The extremely dense negative energy in the ruins outside the Crystal Prison portal, as well as the barrier that completely isolates the ruins from the outside world, are actually the result of the breath of entropy.
It's just that I don't know whether it was the artificer who created the prison that enhanced its effect, or the gods of Mulhorand and Unther who enhanced it.
In short, whether it is the ruins or the deadly environment inside the crystal prison, it all originates from here.
If it were an ordinary person, he would have died countless times by now.
All magic, divine power, and quasi-divine power in the material world cannot provide even the slightest protection at this moment.
The most obvious thing was the large number of legendary protective spells on Zuo Si's body, which collapsed within a few seconds after he entered, without even a trace of residue left.
Only the sparks of the planeswalkers can form a protective wall, isolating those dangerous things 100% from the outside.
"This is impossible! You...how come you weren't torn apart by that great power?"
Bertrand Lederer's strange figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere inside the black hole.
Although his face was completely dark and no expression could be seen, his tone revealed shock and disbelief that could not be concealed.
"Because I'm a planeswalker. I told you that from the beginning. And... guess why I came in on my own initiative?"
As he spoke, Zuo Si opened his upper arms and rushed towards the core of the black hole at an extremely fast speed, thrusting his hand into the chaos and nothingness.
The next second...
"Ah ...
Bertrand Lederer's screams and cries instantly echoed in the extra-dimensional channel connecting to the dark void.
He was so terrified that he tried several times to throw Zuo Si into the dark void at the other end.
But unfortunately this struggle is in vain.
In the face of high-level sparks, the little power he could mobilize was simply insignificant.
No matter how violent the reaction inside the black hole was, Zuo Si remained motionless, and bit by bit pulled out a shadow wrapped in black viscous energy.
When the dark shadow was completely pulled out, Bertrand Lederer's twisted body disappeared into thin air.
There is no doubt that this shadow is the soul that he actively integrated into.
"Well, do you believe now that I am a planeswalker?
Oops! Sorry.
I almost forgot that in your current state you can’t speak at all, and you can’t sense what’s happening in the outside world.
After all, these chaotic and twisted forces have corrupted you.
When you escape from a destructive black hole, your consciousness will be isolated in another dimension.
But it doesn't matter.
Because your soul is the best carrier of the dimensional channel, and it is an indispensable part of my creation of weapons specifically designed to kill gods."
As these words came out of his mouth, Zuo Si slowly pulled out the Chengyang Sword embryo that he had been carrying carefully, and without hesitation inserted it into the depths of Bertrand Lederer's soul.
The next second...
这个仍旧还活着的家伙立刻便感受到了痛苦与死亡的滋味，不受控制的开始剧烈震颤，同时在周围形成共鸣的能量涟漪。
紧跟着位于异次元通道另外一边的黑暗虚空，瞬间涌入无穷无尽的能量、原始物质和混乱扭曲的规则。
它们就像是奔腾的洪水，如同山呼海啸般冲了过来。
“棒极了！你还真是帮了我一个大忙！”
左思见状不惊反喜，立刻疯狂从地牌连接的各个位面中抽取能量，联合黑洞周围形成稳定狭窄的通道，让这股恐怖的力量直接冲击剑胚。
轰！！！！！！！！！ 仅仅一击，承阳剑就在撞击中被加热到了难以想象的超温，整个剑身甚至呈现出核聚变一样的离子化状态。
如果不是之前用了大量的稀有、罕见且无比坚固的材料进行锻造，同时还拥有火花力量的保护，换成其他的神器恐怕早就已经不复存在了。
这正是黑暗虚空最可怕、最令人毛骨悚然的地方！ 尽管在托瑞尔所在的宇宙中，恒星的核聚变根本算不上什么不得了的力量。
很多强大的神明、类神力与上古邪物都可以创造、移动和毁灭太阳，部分特殊的巨龙、火元素、火巨灵也能在太阳上生存。
据说一些太阳闪耀斑就是一种叫做“日龙”的太空龙种在产卵时引发的超自然现象。
但左思这柄弑神武器可不是“区区”核聚变就能够摧毁的。
让它呈现出现如今的样子，需要比核聚变更强大、更猛烈的能量反应。
也就是说顺着异次元通道涌入的冲击仅仅用了一秒钟，就超越了不知道多少颗恒星能量的总和。
左思甚至不敢在原地停留，迅速发动火花的力量后退，从毁灭黑洞中钻了出来，站在一片已经化作虚无的水晶监牢里观察情况。
他知道，事情到了这一步已经不是自己能够控制的了。
唯一能做的就是等待。
如果锻造成功，那么屠神者降临留下的这个通道就会被承阳剑吸收封印，变成一把对诸神来说无比致命的神器。
如果锻造失败，那么花费无数心思制造出来的剑胚便会破碎，以无法用语言形容的方式将这个半位面空间瞬间撕碎，并引发一场毁灭性的黑暗虚空风暴。
估计落湮沙漠和紫尘沙漠会在风暴中被彻底吞噬，沦为一小块连诸神都无法靠近的恐怖区域。
就在左思带着些许忐忑等待结果的时候，突然看到柯兹夫叼着一具外形残破不堪的构装体魔像跑了过来，从没有严重损坏的半个身体来判断，应该就是之前没能逃掉的责成者。
只不过这位来自机械境的执法者此刻已经失去了行动能力，并且灵魂核心受到黑暗虚空能量和原始物质引发的爆炸影响，记忆与逻辑思维都出现了极大的混乱。
嘴里念叨着一些别人根本听不懂的词语和诡异声音。
原本漂亮的外部护甲与传动系统更是蒙上了一层黑灰色的不明物质。
“你什么时候养成了喜欢捡东西的习惯？”
左思挑起眉毛撇了一眼正在吐舌头的混沌魔犬。
也不知道是不是错觉，他发现这家伙的性格似乎正在变得越来越像一条普通的家养犬。
除了在战斗的时候会凶相毕露之外，平日里基本看不出太多的危险性。
不过眼下的水晶监狱已经差不多完全坍塌，根本不是检查“责成者”受损情况的地方。
左思也只能先把这玩意装起来。等回去之后再找时间慢慢研究。
不过好在承阳剑终究没有让他失望。
在差不多半个小时之后，原本直径接近十米的球形黑洞开始向内部收缩。
尽管整个过程非常的缓慢，刚开始的时候更是无法靠肉眼观察到。
但随着球体越来越小，速度也跟着不停加快，最终与离子态的剑身彻底融为一体。
当整柄剑重新出现在视线范围内的时候，原本那宛如太阳一样刺眼的白光早已消失不见，取而代之的是完全不透光的黑暗深邃，就仿佛通往黑暗虚空的异次元通道本身。
同时还向周围环境中散发着赤裸裸毫不掩饰的毁灭与死亡气息。
毫无疑问，现在这柄剑已经成为了旅法师专属的武器。
因为如果没有火花力量的保护，即便是神明握住它也会立刻从内部遭到侵蚀、崩解，最终走向死亡。
凭借着旅法师的力量，左思成功抓握住了剑柄，感受着其中所蕴含的骇人力量。
如果说原本的承阳剑是由塞洛斯时空的熔缎神普罗烽斯打造，后来又经太阳神——赫利欧德神力的重铸，最终成为一柄弑神武器，其本质大部分仍旧是来自火焰和光明的神力，因此才会获得“承阳”这个名字。
那么现在的它就是一柄彻头彻尾的黑暗虚无之剑。
或许应该称之为“承阴”更适合一些。
从内部散发着来自黑暗虚空的力量，以及“屠神者”潘德瑞姆降临时所形成的毁灭黑洞，会导致凡是被其抹杀的神明将永久性的消失，而不仅仅是去星界躺尸等待信徒通过祈祷、献祭等方式让自己复活重生。
原因在于神明的哲学本质会被黑暗虚空那无处不在的混乱逻辑从根源上抹除，从死亡的那一刻起便处于一种“不存在”的状态。
“不错！现在我终于有了一件可以真正意义上对诸神造成威胁乃至杀死他们的武器了。虽然距离打造成完全体还有一段距离，但好歹能用。”
左思脸上浮现出满意的表情，小心翼翼将剑插进事先准备好的封印剑鞘中。
由于掌握了大量封印奥札奇的技巧，还有从灵龙乌金那里学习到的虚空知识，他对于这些极度危险的东西应付起来可以说是越来越得心应手。
只要这柄弑神之剑不出鞘，谁也感受不到半点外溢的能量与气息。
接下来左思要做的就是找到封印屠神者意识的监狱，确认这个来自黑暗虚空的生物跟奥札奇泰坦相比究竟谁强谁弱。
要是有机会的话，顺便把潘德瑞姆的意识也封禁进去强化弑神武器力量。
反正有砾岩术士娜希丽帮忙打造的晶石法阵打底，区区一个虚空生物被剥离的意识还掀不起什么风浪。
至于最后一步，当然就是把三个奥札奇泰坦的其中一个也封禁到剑里。
如此一来，这柄拥有毁灭无数个时空力量的虚空之剑，就会成为左思对抗强大敌人时最强有力的底牌。
相信不管是神明还是尼可·波拉斯，被捅上一下即便没死也绝对不会好受。
伴随着“屠神者”潘德瑞姆降临时形成的通道彻底被封印，悬挂在天空上的邪恶符文很快随之消失不见，法师们施展咒法系魔法的时候也不会再莫名其妙的失败。
最重要的是，地表营地里的冒险者和佣兵，身上那些黑色斑点迅速消退，噩梦也渐渐被美梦所取代。
正在朝着扭曲虚体死灵方向转化的家伙侥幸逃过一劫，整个人像是生了场大病一样，浑身上下被汗水浸透，并且伴随着发烧、发炎、甚至不停地呓语。
但不管怎么说，好歹是保住了小命。
不过这些都跟左思没什么关系了。
他偷偷回到营地之后留下一个拟像掩人耳目后，自己就直接返回法师塔去整理研究这趟旅途的收获。
尤其是在遗迹中找到的那些有魔法保护，尚未腐朽的书籍、卷轴和笔记，都是至高伊玛斯卡帝国最宝贵的知识跟财富。
假如幸运的话，说不定能搞清楚奇械师这个有趣职业的奥秘与传承。
……
与此同时，远在幽暗地域的乌斯特·拿萨城。
保持着黑暗精灵形态的阿伯戴尔正面临着一个无比“艰难”的选择。
因为第一家族“德斯班那”的长女——菲里，今天正式向他发出邀请，去私人房间里进行一些比较激烈且汗流浃背的运动。
考虑到对方丰满诱人的身材，以及那张漂亮的脸蛋，换成以前这位巴尔之子连犹豫都不会犹豫，会直奔目的地去进行一次“友好交流”。
可问题是，他现在跟自己意淫了好久的“梦中女神”贾希拉终于有了点进展，如果做了这种事情是不是会有非常严重的后果？
想到这，阿伯戴尔下意识用眼角的余光偷偷撇了一眼贾希拉，发现对方不出意外阴沉着脸，明显是相当的不高兴。
不得不说，在面对爱与性的时候，容易冲动的男性很容易陷入两难的纠结。
一方面是刻在基因中的原始繁衍本能，另外一方面则是由社会性衍生出来的责任。
Seeing this situation, Imoen sighed helplessly and asked, "What should we do now? According to the social rules of the dark elves, if a noble daughter of the first family and a high-ranking priest makes a request to a lowly man, the latter cannot refuse.
Otherwise it would be a very serious offense and disrespect.
The ruthless Firi might send people to hunt us down.
Everything you have done before will be in vain.”
Sancho, who had already taken over the leadership position, raised his head and looked into the eyes of the half-elf druid.
In his opinion, this was not a big deal at all. Given Aberdare's lustful nature, he would definitely be happy to accept it.
"Are you sure it's safe to do this? That evil dark elf named Firi won't do anything to Aberdare in the meantime?" Jaheira questioned with a frown.
Sancho answered without hesitation: “If Firi wants to do anything to Aberdare, she will be dead.
Don't forget that Aberdare will transform into a killer once he senses danger.
I don't think the drow priestess can withstand the tearing of fangs and claws while naked.
In addition, we can use this relationship to find out the whereabouts of the dragon eggs later.
As long as we find the dragon egg, we can take it back to the silver dragon, and then leave the Underdark under her escort and go to the surface to follow the footsteps of Erinikas.
The mentor said that this trip to the Underdark is a training for us.
Only after going through numerous trials can we defeat Erinikas in the final battle and regain what Aberdare has lost."
"Ah—okay, I think I see what you mean."
Jaheira sighed slightly, raised his hand and patted Aberdare's shoulder gently, then turned and went upstairs to the guest room of the inn, intending to put it out of sight and out of mind.
After she disappeared at the end of the spiral staircase, Aberdare suddenly came to his senses. He opened his eyes wide and asked in an incredulous tone, "Did Jaheira agree?"
Sancho nodded slightly. "Yes, she agreed. Now you can go find Firi and find out what this vicious drow priestess is up to."
"Hey, hey! Got it! Leave it to me."
Aberdare's brows suddenly lit up with joy, his eyes flashing with burning desire, he picked up his weapon and turned to walk out.
You have to know that he hasn't looked for a woman for several months. Now he is like a bull in heat, and all he thinks about is how to find an opportunity to vent.
When the other members of the team saw this situation, they all showed helpless expressions.
Imoen, in particular, finally understood why Jaheira was always so distant towards Aberdare and never acknowledged the special relationship between them.
It's really that this guy's personality makes people feel insecure.
If I were in his shoes, I would definitely not choose a beast that can't control its lower body as a lifelong partner.
After seeing Aberdare off, the girl immediately sat down beside Sancho and asked in a low voice: "What do you think the chances are that we can leave Uster-Nasa safely?"
“No more than 30%.
Because there are too many uncertain factors.
Whether it's the alliance between Erinikas and the dark elves, the matron who doesn't know what to do with the dragon eggs, or her eldest daughter Firi who is ambitious and wants to replace her, they are all big troubles.
In addition, we must be careful of other families and forces in this city.
Due to our outstanding performance in previous missions, we have already attracted the attention of many interested parties.
Fortunately, as long as we successfully get the dragon egg, the powerful silver dragon will become our best helper.
With the power she possesses, it is more than enough to even crush Uster Nasa."
As he said this, Sancho picked up the cup and took a sip of the "mushroom wine" which is a specialty of the Underdark. His tongue immediately felt a mellow taste with a hint of bitterness.
To be honest, the wine brewed with mushrooms is not good in terms of taste or flavor.
But the problem is that there is no sunlight in the Underdark, so most of the food crops on the surface cannot grow here. Only various mushrooms and other fungi can barely survive.
So mushrooms can almost be said to be the most stable food source for most creatures living in this dark world.
Even the dark elves, who are the dominant species, usually eat mushrooms as their staple food most of the time, and occasionally eat the meat and milk of Los beasts as protein supplements.
This is also the reason why many dark elf cities give the green light to surface caravans transporting food and even promise to ensure their safety.
It's nothing, it's just a simple lack of food.
No matter who it is, as long as they can get a lot of food, the drow will look at them differently and occasionally grant them some privileges.
The limited and scarce food types mean that it is impossible to make wine using a variety of raw materials such as grains, fruits, honey, etc. like on the surface world. We can only do something with mushrooms which are abundant and filling.
Therefore, mushroom wines of various flavors came into being.
If you travel through the cities of all races in the Underdark, you will find that whether it is the dark elves, gray dwarves, deep gnomes, beholders, or even the drinks provided by the mind flayers to their slaves, they are all brewed from mushrooms.
The difference is that some races add some special "seasonings" to the mushrooms.
For example, the blood of certain creatures, the internal organs and corpses of dead slaves, some small insects growing in the fungal forest, algae in freshwater lakes, etc.
Influenced by Zuo Si, Sancho is actually not very fond of alcoholic beverages.
But the problem is that he is now playing the role of a drow mercenary, so he has to drink a small amount of alcohol to conceal his identity and prevent some habits that are inadvertently revealed from being noticed by other dark elves around him.
In contrast, Imoen was a drunkard. He tilted his head back and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp. Then he burped without any ladylike manner and continued to ask in a low voice: "So our goal is to find the dragon egg and snatch it?"
“If possible, I would rather cheat than rob.
Believe me, it is not a wise choice to directly deal with tens of thousands of drow in a city.
Although we are the sons of Bhaal and can gain greater strength from killing, we cannot deal with so many enemies at the same time.
Also, I think the attitude of the dark elf warrior named Solaufin is very interesting.
He seemed tired of his current life and was longing for liberation and redemption.
Maybe we can find a way through him."
After saying this, a deep light flashed in Sancho's eyes.
If there was anyone in the team who had made the greatest progress during this trip to the Underdark, it would definitely be him.
In particular, the several battles with the cunning drow and gray dwarves made the boy more mature and profound, and his mind grew rapidly under the influence of divinity and divine power.
"But didn't he escape under an assumed name?"
Imoen blinked in confusion.
Sancho smiled and shook his head: “No, Solaufin is just hiding and has not left the city.
He might be observing us secretly, or he might be looking for an opportunity to take revenge on Firi.
In short, the First Family’s once most outstanding warrior is still here.
Whatever he wants to do, it's only a matter of time before he comes into contact with us again."
"Do you need me to find him?"
Imoen asked cautiously.
"That's not necessary. Now Solaufin is in the dark and we are in the light. We just need to maintain this state. If something really happens, he will contact us on his own initiative."
After saying that, Sancho ignored everyone else, took out a black-covered spell book and began to read it with relish.
He bought this at a high price from the Uster Nasa Mage Tower by using the name of the First Family while he was employed by Firi.
As for the content, there are of course some spells unique to dark elves, as well as many spellcasting techniques unique to elves.
The boy believed that as long as he learned and mastered these, he would be only one step away from becoming a legendary spellcaster.
Only by becoming a legendary wizard can you have the qualifications to survive and enter the final round in this increasingly fierce Son of Bhaal elimination tournament.
…
On the other side, Erinikas, who had left the Underdark and returned to the surface, immediately found his biological sister, the Vampire Queen - Badi.
Right now, the two of them were deep underground in the cemetery of Athkatla, staring into each other's eyes face to face.
After a full minute, Erinikas broke the silence and asked, "Do you remember the pain when your elven essence was stripped away? Do you remember the anger we swore for revenge as we endured our aging bodies?"
"I'm sorry, but I don't remember. The essence of the undead has corroded my mind and soul. All I have left is an endless thirst for blood."
When saying this, Badi's tone was full of melancholy and confusion.
Because she doesn't know what she is now.
Elf?
This is obviously no longer the case.
Vampire Queen? That doesn't seem accurate either.
The only thing Badi knew was that he had to obey every order given by Soth and carry out his master's will.
“It’s just as I expected.
My dear sister, you have lost everything as a living being and can no longer follow in my footsteps.
But considering that we were once blood relatives and had endured pain and despair together, I will give you a small gift before you leave.
At least it will help slake your thirst for blood a little and keep you sane at all times."
After saying that, Erinikas raised his hand and gently stroked Badi's pale and cold face.
A ray of red and black divine power and divinity was injected into the body of the Vampire Queen.
moment!
Badi shivered involuntarily, his blood-red pupils flashed a bright light, and he asked nervously: "You...what did you do to me?"
"No, nothing, just a small gift.
Goodbye, sister.
Regardless of whether my plan succeeds in the end, you and I will never have the chance to meet again.
Now I am going to embrace my own destiny and challenge the insurmountable gap between mortals and gods.
And you just stay here and live well."
As the last word came out of his mouth, Erinikas, who had exaggerated muscles like a fitness coach, opened his arms and hugged his last relative in this world.
After doing all this, he activated the magic teleportation and disappeared from the spot, arriving at an open space in the Wildas Forest.
At this moment, there is already a black dragon, a large number of summoned demons, evil beasts, yugoloths, and a considerable number of giants and golems.
Obviously, they are the elite troops prepared by Erinikas to invade the elven city - Sodannisla.
If classified by strength, the less than three or four hundred commandos at present have a challenge level equivalent to LV11 at the lowest, and a very small number even exceed LV20. They are the kind of natural disasters that can cause devastating damage if just two or three of them are thrown into an ordinary city.
But now, they all gathered around Erinikas, intending to destroy Sodanisla's last resistance in one fell swoop.
After all, the elf mazes and barriers are no joke.
There was no verbal communication, nor many mobilization speeches before the war began.
Erinikas, whose heart had long been twisted and cold, simply opened his mouth and uttered six words: "Let everything begin!"
moment!
Demons, beastmen, yugoloths, giants, and golems rushed like a tide towards the entrance that was torn open by magic.
Before the elven patrol guarding nearby could react to what was happening, they were torn into pieces by a dozen powerful and brutal berserkers. Even their souls did not escape and were directly captured and turned into the enemy's snacks.
"Hahahaha! Kill! Loot! Let this city burn!"
"Mortals! Please me with your screams and deaths!"
"What delicious flesh! What an intoxicating feeling of fear! Oh my God! I feel like I can't control myself!"
As the creatures from the lower planes went on a killing spree, the unsuspecting residents of Sodanisla suffered heavy casualties.
By the time those elite soldiers arrived, it was obviously too late. All they saw were mutilated corpses all over the ground and the evil invaders wreaking havoc.
Most importantly, they saw the familiar face of Erinikas.
"Qiang... Naleis? Did you do all this?"
The leading captain asked loudly in an angry voice.
"I'm sorry, the name you just mentioned has long been abandoned by me.
My name is now Joan Ernicas, keep that in mind.
Because next I will completely destroy this place, and then complete the absorption of the energy of the Tree of Life and become a true God.
There is no force that can stop me from achieving this goal.”
Erinikas made no attempt to conceal his intentions and announced them directly.
Because he wants the other party to feel the pain of helplessness and despair after repeated failures.
"What! You want to become a god?"
The elf captain was stunned, and stood there like a fool.
Although he knew that the great wizard in front of him, whose status was second only to the queen, possessed unimaginable talent and intelligence, he never expected that he would be so crazy, even to the point of blasphemy.
"Sorry, I'm in a hurry and don't have time to talk nonsense with you."
As the last word came out of his mouth, Erinikas shot out a rune directly from his fingertips.
The rune instantly expanded among the crowd, followed by an explosion with a loud bang.
More than twenty elven warriors were corroded by the horrible negative energy and died on the spot and were transformed into undead. They rushed directly towards their companions or elven civilians within the distance and killed them wantonly.
In an instant, the already chaotic scene became even more chaotic, and deaths occurred one after another.
"Ahhhh! Run! The Exile is back! He's seeking revenge on us!"
"Mom! What's wrong with you? Get up!"
"Don't panic! Gather towards the palace and the temple! They are protected by a magic barrier!"
"Damn it! We need support! Send a distress signal to the troops fighting the dark elves!"
The Sodanisla elves, who had enjoyed thousands of years of peace, finally experienced the pain of war and death once again.
What is even more difficult for them to accept is that they themselves had sown this bitter fruit.
Although many warriors, mages, and priests of high levels stood up to try to stop Irenicus's advance, they all failed without exception.
These mortals were as fragile as newborn babies in front of him, who had obtained the divinity and power of Baal.
Often they will be killed in just a few rounds by arcane magic mixed with divine power.
One person fights against an entire city, and that city is an elf city protected by magic mazes and barriers.
At this moment, Erinikas was like a god of magic, wantonly wielding unrivaled arcane power and killing every creature he met along the way.
Whether it is the elderly, women, or newborn babies...
