"Damn it! Now I'm beginning to hate this rainforest and the endless plants!"
While complaining in a low voice, Atona swung the beheading giant sword with the breath of hellfire to kill and destroy the animated plants that surrounded her.
At the same time, she finally understood why Ur-Utalon had become a legend and even a legend in the Jungle of Chult, even though no one had ever seen its true face after so long.
Because when this guy launched the attack, his real body was not nearby at all, but he was remotely controlling the dense trees through some unknown force.
If it weren't for the fact that this power clearly carried strong tendencies of evil, plunder and destruction, Succubus Loli would even suspect that the creator and owner of this jungle - the dinosaur god Ubtao - was behind it.
After all, this is Chult, Ubtao's exclusive back garden.
In theory, apart from him, there should be no other god, quasi-divine power, or powerful nature spirit who can gain such powerful power in this land.
Not even Silvanus, the god of nature and father of oaks.
This involves the agreement reached between Ubtao and the gods when he rebelled.
Before setting off, Succubus Loli read almost all the books and notes about the Chult Jungle in the library, so she knew this place quite well.
Of course, they are not as good as the indigenous people who were born and raised here.
Especially those priests who worship Ubtao.
They obviously know a lot of secrets about this land, as well as the prophecies and legends of the nightmare giant snake destroying the world.
It's a pity that these priests would rather let outsiders take away the valuable gold, silver, jewelry, and various rare animals and plants than share this truly valuable information.
To some extent, the Chult Jungle on the continent of Faerun is even more closed and exclusive than the continent of Maztec on the other side of the sea.
Thinking of this, the succubus Loli glanced at the indigenous tribe that had been rescued by the little wolves and retreated quickly.
As for the lizardmen and snakemen, they had all died in the chaos.
Not to mention them, even the giant dinosaurs that ran slower were sucked away until only a wrinkled skin was left, and even their bones were completely broken down by the injected digestive enzymes.
If you stand on a high place and look down, you will find that Ul-Utalon has completely controlled all the plants in the surrounding forest, just like the legendary magic of some druids.
But the difference is that all controlled plants will show some obscure shadow characteristics.
What's even more terrible is that from the beginning of the battle until now, the succubus loli has never been able to lock onto the opponent's hiding place, so there is no way to counterattack.
Although these attacks do not pose any real threat for the time being.
In desperation, she could only pray to the master she served with reluctance, hoping to get Zuo Si's help.
Clearly, this little guy is doing what a typical voter would do when faced with a problem they can't solve themselves.
This is why many forces, whether good or evil, will be extremely cautious when facing a voter.
After all, you can never imagine how the people behind the scenes will react when voters start praying to gods and quasi-divine powers.
Is it like the second generation magic goddess who pretended that nothing had happened, and just quietly resurrected the dead voters afterwards?
Or would he send down a combat avatar to smash the enemy's head like the Lord of the Dawn, Lathander? Or would he temporarily occupy the body of the chosen one and give the other party a "little surprise"? However, Zuo Si obviously chose the third option.
After hearing the succubus loli's call for help, he instantly crossed the long distance in space and injected a ray of consciousness and thoughts into her.
Since countless studies and tests had been conducted before, the process was extremely smooth and there were no obstacles at all.
When the succubus Loli realized that her master wanted to take over her body, she immediately contracted her consciousness and soul to the maximum extent, turning from a manipulator of the body into a bystander.
"No matter how many times I try...it feels a little weird."
Zuo Si looked down at his shrunken palm and the changes in his physiological structure, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.
Although strictly speaking, the Succubus Loli was created by him.
The other person's body, spirit, mind, and soul have completely changed into his own shape, but the strange feeling brought about by this gender change is really difficult to adapt to.
After all, Zuo Si is not Elminster, and he can still enjoy it even if he is turned into a woman by the second-generation magic goddess.
Nor can they learn to enjoy the double physiological pleasure brought by constant gender changes like those intelligent creatures who are good at transformation magic.
"Master, be careful."
Just as Zuo Si was complaining, the succubus loli whispered a reminder through the mental connection.
Perhaps she has lost control of her body at the moment, but she is not completely ignorant of the outside world. She still shares vision, hearing, smell, touch and taste.
"Don't worry, this level of attack poses no threat to me."
While speaking, Zuo Si directly increased the length of the Hellfire Breath attached to the beheading giant sword to more than ten meters.
The next second...
Boom!!!!!! As the sword was swung, the animated trees within a radius of more than ten meters were turned into ashes under the high temperature burning with evil attributes.
Immediately afterwards, he raised his hand and released the nine-ring magic [Gate to Another World], summoning an alien insect demon guard from the ninth level of Baator Hell.
As soon as the latter appeared, he immediately swung the weapon held at the end of his thick limbs at high speed, setting off a death storm that was enough to make even legendary warriors' scalps numb.
This top-level devil designed and made by Zuo Si himself has four pairs of limbs like a spider, two of the most distal pairs of hind limbs are legs that support the body covered with heavy carapace, and the remaining three pairs are all hands.
So when others can launch one or two attacks in a round, they can launch at least three attacks, and this is when all of them are using two-handed weapons.
If it is switched to one hand, at least six fatal attacks can be launched in one round.
Coupled with the exaggerated power attributes of the alien insect demon, the consequences can be imagined if someone gets close to it.
What's more, they are not just capable of physical attacks. Their insect-like mouthparts can also spurt out cones of hellfire, and they can cast a large number of spell-like abilities at will and without restriction.
From the moment the alien insect demon in front of him stepped through the portal, the six arms turned into a shadow.
Those animated trees, vines, and other plants were like being stuffed into a crusher, and were torn into pieces by the cold magic weapons in a very short time.
Especially heavy weapons like axes, hammers, and machetes can turn a thick tree into flying wood chips in a few seconds.
As for the wooden thorns shot out from the trees, they were simply unable to penetrate the extremely thick shell of the alien insect demon.
With the powerful helper of the alien insect demon to share the pressure, Zuo Si quickly extricated himself from the battle and began to shift his attention to this unusual force.
Following the faint energy surging hidden deep in the earth veins, he soon sensed an unusual aura, and an expression of surprise appeared on his originally calm face.
"What is this? An evil energy seeing in from another dimension?
Is its source an evil god, a demon lord, or an ancient evil, a primordial being? Why did this power appear in the Chult Jungle and last for so long? "
With strong doubts and confusion, Zuo Sixiang wanted to use magical powers to dig out the source of the weak energy surge.
But before he could take actual action, the other party seemed to have sensed something and quickly withdrew all the energy to control the plants and disappeared, leaving behind only the horrifying sight of debris and only wrinkled skin left.
If it was the real body or the projection here, Zuo Si would definitely be able to find out the source of this power, no matter how fast it ran.
But unfortunately, he is currently only controlling the body of the succubus loli, so he does not have such ability. He has no choice but to let the other party go.
But it was not a complete failure. At least we found out what the jungle legend Ul-Utalon was.
Likewise, there is a growing interest in the secrets hidden in this mysterious land of the Chult Jungle.
After the battle, Zuo Si returned the control of his body to the succubus loli, and left with the summoned alien insect demon.
Because he and the little guy are spiritually connected, he will know immediately what the latter knows, and there is no need to keep an eye on him 24 hours a day.
As the raging rainforest returned to calm, only a few trees ignited by the hellfire were still crackling and burning.
The indigenous residents who escaped death shed tears of pain and sorrow as they looked at the doomsday scene before them and saw their homes and hunting grounds, where their ancestors had lived for generations, completely reduced to ashes in the flames.
You have to know that the indigenous inhabitants of the Chult Jungle were not an agricultural and pastoral civilization, but a typical gathering and hunting civilization.
They rely on the rich resources of the rainforest for a living by fishing, hunting, and gathering fruits and edible insects and plants.
This means that after the fire, this traditional hunting ground will not be able to recover for several years.
If you want to survive, there is only one way, and that is to migrate to a new place and risk death and being hunted and swallowed by other tribes.
Not only do you have to adapt to the environment again, but failure means destruction.
Throughout the long history of the Chult Jungle, too many tribes have disappeared in obscurity.
Most importantly, due to the hot and humid environment of the tropical rainforest, people here have no habit of storing food.
Because no matter what you eat, it will inevitably start to rot and deteriorate if left for a few hours.
So before finding new woodlands and hunting grounds, one must also consider how to feed so many mouths.
Just as the old priest began to worry about what to do with the surviving tribesmen in the future, he suddenly saw the succubus loli appear in front of him and said in an emotionless tone: "I think you owe me an explanation, don't you?"
moment!
The old priest's heart sank into the valley, and he noticed that the giant werewolf who had just rescued him was now blocking the tribe members' escape route from all directions.
After a long silence, he finally raised his head and asked, "What do you want to know?"
"I want to know what Ur-Utalon is. I also want to know the prophecy of doom that has spread in the Chult Jungle Peninsula, and the relationship between the dinosaur god Ubtao and the nightmare serpent Dendel."
The succubus loli made the request without any hesitation.
She had long noticed that this priest wore the emblem of the dinosaur god Ubtao, and his level was definitely not low, so he must know some hidden secrets.
"Ul-Utalon is the name of a legendary tribe in ancient times, and they were also the first to discover this terrible monster.
According to information passed down by word of mouth, it was originally just the dark side that split from the Dinosaur God, and was a sealed natural spirit for a long time.
But later, when the two tribes were fighting each other, he was released and transformed into a huge shadow giant and attacked the holy city of Mezro.
Fortunately, he was eventually defeated and scattered in the jungle with the defeated, forming a new faith. "
The old priest spoke with a slightly fearful tone about the origin of this legendary creature in the Chult jungle.
The succubus frowned and thought for a moment, then continued to ask: "You mean...Ul Utalon is the demigod Aishouduo?"
The old priest nodded first, then shook his head: "Yes and no.
To be precise, Ul-Utalon should be Eshudho's creation, incarnation or projection.
Although it had posed a great threat to all the tribes living here before, it was not as terrible as it is now.
The real transformation has occurred in the last two years.
No one knows what exactly happened, but from then on Ul-Utalon began to become more and more crazy and ruthless, as if he wanted to kill everyone.
It is said that there are no tribes left alive in the southern Flame Peak.
So I'm sure something happened during the turbulent year, otherwise there's no way to explain this sudden change.
As for the relationship between Ubtao and the nightmare serpent Dendar, they were already enemies in the distant Dawn War era.
Ubtao is the great guardian who oversees the nightmare serpent Dendar's only entrance into this world.
If that door is opened one day, he will fight against this terrifying ancient evil.
If we lose, the whole world will be Devoured."
"That sounds a bit strange. Why would the entire world be Devoured by the nightmare serpent Dendel after Ubtao's defeat? What about the other gods? Did they just stand by and watch?"
The succubus Loli frowned subconsciously.
Because this prophecy doesn't make logical sense.
In contrast, she did have an answer in her mind regarding Ul-Utalon.
Because before leaving, Zuo Si specifically reminded them to be careful of another god in the Chult jungle - Aishuduo.
The dark side that split off from the dinosaur god was most likely secretly killed, swallowed, and replaced by Shar, the goddess of the night.
Although the name and doctrine have not changed, the god who actually accepts faith and grants divine powers has changed.
This would also explain why Ul-Utalon had suddenly become crazy and ruthless in the last two years.
Especially clearing out the tribes around the Flame Peak in the southern part of the jungle. It seemed like they were trying to cause trouble and deliberately releasing the nightmare snake Dendel.
After all, Flame Peak is the only entrance for Dendar to enter Toril according to legend.
Moreover, her own wish is to kill all the gods, destroy the world, and restore the entire crystal wall to the darkness, nothingness and tranquility at the beginning of its creation.
"I'm sorry, but I'm not sure why the gods chose to stand aside and watch. This may be related to the agreement Ubtao reached with the gods. Anyway, that's what the prophecy said."
The old priest told out everything he knew.
Since the lifestyle in the Chult jungle is very primitive and there is no paper, stone tablets or other things to record words, all knowledge, technology, craftsmanship and information must be passed on orally.
As the most intelligent priest in the tribe, he obviously does this job, so he knows much more than other tribal members.
Seeing that no more useful information could be obtained, the succubus loli made a gesture to the little wolves, who quickly changed back into human form and stopped maintaining the blockade formation.
The old priest noticed this and immediately let out a long sigh.
After a brief conversation, the werewolf squad and the indigenous refugees gathered together and set out again on their journey deeper into the jungle.
In order to allow the tribe, which had suffered heavy casualties, to continue, the old priest made a deal with the succubus loli.
He was willing to offer the location of the holy city of Mezro, but the latter had to help find a relatively safe new home.
The two sides hit it off immediately and formed a temporary alliance.
After all, the succubus loli and the little werewolves were completely in the dark about this primitive jungle where there was not even a map.
It would be great to have local natives as guides now.
Even if it means wasting a little time, it is much better than rushing around blindly like before.
…
At the same time, far away in the Mage Tower of Askatra.
Zuo Si was sitting on a chair in the workroom, analyzing the important information he had just obtained with great interest.
After several minutes, he couldn't help but sighed and laughed, "You actually want to release the nightmare snake Dendel to achieve the goal of destroying the world?
Should I say it's really you?
The darkest, deepest, most evil, and most ancient goddess in this world!
Aren't you afraid that the God of Gods, Ao, will be angry and seal you away for thousands or even tens of thousands of years?"
There is no doubt that the strange and dangerous situation on the Chult Peninsula is caused by Shar, the goddess of the night.
In the past two years, she secretly killed Aishouduo and took his place, using the fact that this demigod was the shadow of the dinosaur god Ubtao, who was completely unaware of his existence, to do things in the dark.
Ul-Utalon's unbridled and frantic devouring was intended to weaken Ubtao's faith and power.
When the number of animals and intelligent life in the Chult Jungle decreases to a certain level, Ubtao will gradually lose absolute control over the land.
Shar was able to take advantage of the situation and directly open the door that was blocking the nightmare snake Dendel to welcome the end of the world.
Sometimes Zuo Si really couldn't understand why the goddess of the night was so determined to destroy everything.
Is it because this world is too noisy and too bright, disturbing her rest and sleep? Shane VII must have noticed what happened in the Chult Jungle in recent years, so he specifically reminded her to be extra careful.
After figuring this out, Zuo Si couldn't help but feel sorry for His Majesty Io for a second.
Because the gods he created and summoned are really bad, each of them is capable of causing trouble and causing great harm.
Among all the ancient and powerful gods, perhaps only the ancient god of death, Jaeger, is relatively honest.
Although there are various versions of this person's shocking conspiracy circulating, he has never thought of exploding a star or destroying the world from beginning to end, let alone touching the bottom line of the God above Gods.
“Alas—it seems I have to pay special attention to the movements of this one of the oldest twin goddesses.
God knows if things go on like this, maybe one day His Majesty Aio will suddenly get irritated and say "I'm tired, let's destroy it, hurry up", and then turn the entire crystal wall into nothingness.
In front of the Creator God who holds supreme authority, so-called civilization, life, faith, and gods are all like patterns on a canvas that can be easily erased if desired."
Without any hesitation!
Zuo Si directly sent all the information and speculations he had obtained to the third-generation magic goddess Midnight.
When Midnight learned that Shar wanted to release the Nightmare Snake, she immediately contacted another goddess of creation, Sulen.
About a few minutes later, two beautiful goddesses radiating divine light appeared in the reception room of the Mage Tower.
The Moon Goddess Sulun asked impatiently as soon as they met: "Is your information accurate? Does my evil sister really want to release the nightmare snake Dendel to destroy the world?"
"That's right. If you don't believe me, all you have to do is look into Eshudho and what's happening in the Jungle of Chult."
Zuo Si gave a straightforward affirmative answer.
Because he knew the intentions and character of Shar, the goddess of the night, too well.
If the Prince of Lies, Cyric, is compared to a psychopath, then Shar is an out-and-out terrorist.
As long as there is an opportunity, the Goddess of Night will do everything she can to cause devastating damage and kill any gods other than herself.
"Damn it! She's getting crazier and bolder."
Su Lun was obviously also shocked by this plan, and one of his hands was tightly grasping the artifact - the Staff of Four Moons.
Midnight nodded in agreement: "Yes, we must not let her succeed. Sos, tell me what you think. I think since you have noticed this conspiracy, you must have a corresponding countermeasure, right?"
Zuo Si smiled helplessly and said, "You think too highly of me.
Please, this is one of the most ancient and powerful gods. It is impossible for me to defeat him with the power I have now.
I think the best response now is to reveal this matter to other powerful gods as much as possible.
Whether it is the Three Holy Alliance headed by the God of Justice Tyr, or powerful gods such as the Lord of the Dawn Lathander, the Mother Goddess of the Earth Changtiia, and the God of War Tempus.
As long as enough gods know about it, they can unite to exert pressure, or even threaten to start a war between gods.
With the example of Xirik, I believe she would choose to give up rather than fight to the end.
After all, releasing the nightmare serpent Dendel to devour everything is not in the best interests of most gods."
"But what if she doesn't admit it?"
Su Lun obviously knew Shar and immediately asked a very sharp question.
But Zuo Si replied disapprovingly: “It doesn’t matter whether you admit it or not, the main thing is to let all the gods know about this matter so that they can be prepared.
The reason why a conspiracy is a conspiracy is that it can only work when others don't know about it.
Once exposed to sunlight, nothing can hide.
What's more, I remember that the gods had signed an agreement with Ubtao that no foreign gods could spread their faith in the Chult Peninsula.
You can definitely do something about this matter and unite the Dinosaur God to drive it out of the peninsula.
As a result, she has no place to stand in the Chult Jungle, and naturally cannot continue to release Dendel. "
"It sounds like a good idea. Thank you for providing this important information, otherwise we would still be in the dark."
Su Lun stood up, put one hand on his chest solemnly, and bowed slightly.
Because she has been fighting with Shar since the beginning of creation, she pays more attention to the actions of her "good sister" than any other god, and understands her insidiousness, cunningness, and the terrible disasters she can bring to the world.
"Please don't be shy. Protecting Faerûn and Toril is everyone's responsibility. After all, we all live here, and if Dendar is ever released, no one will be spared."
Zuo Si also stood up and returned the greeting.
Although the Moon Goddess is only a medium-level deity nowadays, she is of high seniority and has a lot of experience. Although her camp is chaotic good, her teachings are not extreme at all. Instead, they are full of kindness and tolerance. She is a very easy-going goddess.
Even though the moonlight priesthood was taken away by the dark maiden Iristrae and the love priesthood was taken away by the god of love and beauty, they never felt jealous, resentful or wanted to take them back. Instead, they got along well with each other and even formed a close alliance.
Su Lun looked at the young man very interestedly. After a while, he smiled and said, "You are indeed very special. Although you are the lord and great devil of the ninth layer of Baator Hell, you do not show too much coldness, cruelty and bloodthirstiness. Instead, you make people feel very rational and full of responsibility."
“You really flatter me.
My understanding of evil is slightly different from the traditional definition of evil.
The most important thing is that I am never hostile to kindness and justice.
On the contrary, it is considered to be a very rare, precious and valuable quality that must be encouraged and promoted.
Otherwise, if the whole society is full of vicious and ambitious people, it would be too tiring, too troublesome and too brain-consuming to rule. "
Zuo Si raised the corner of his mouth and made a half-seriously half-joke.
This is why no matter how bad a country's rule and governance are, no matter how serious the internal corruption, abuse of power, and embezzlement and bribery are, it will desperately promote the good side of human nature and morality in public propaganda.
Even if the ruling class themselves don't believe a word of it.
The reason is simple! Only when the majority of the lower-class people are "good", "kind", "submissive", and "weak", and would rather endure poverty and hunger than rise up and launch a bloody revolution, can these people continue to exploit and enjoy everything that power and wealth bring with peace of mind.
Therefore, even for a tyrant, the more kind-hearted people there are within his rule, the easier it is to manage them.
Otherwise, if there were ambitious people everywhere like in Zhentil Keep and Zhentarim, and each subordinate was eyeing his boss and wanted to replace him, it would be a mess.
Zuo Si obviously had a very thorough understanding of this aspect a long time ago, so he gave the Holy Knight Group and the Church of Good God many social powers. Not only did he not suppress them, but he also strongly supported them.
Therefore, the current state of the West Coast Empire is difficult for many people and even gods to understand.
There are even many scholars who are observing and summarizing the unique operating mechanism of this new and huge country.
As the supreme emperor of the country, Zuo Si is undoubtedly a typical lawful evil.
The second-level cabinet members are from all camps. Although most of them are evil or neutral, there is still a small number of people in charge of social welfare projects who are lawful good.
The bureaucratic and judicial systems at the next level have formed a strange unity of opposites between good and evil.
Some departments have more people in the evil camp, while some departments have more people in the good camp.
They form an interesting supervision and restraint between each other.
The most noticeable thing is that both the Paladin and the Dark Guard groups have the power of investigation and law enforcement in the West Coast Empire.
When a case with a serious impact needs to be dealt with severely, the neutral court will send Dark Guards to investigate and arrest the perpetrators to ensure that evidence can be obtained and the judgment can be made as quickly as possible.
When it is necessary to ease tensions with the people in a certain area, the court will send a holy knight who symbolizes kindness and justice, so that people will not feel that the criminal is being wronged.
If they had not seen it with their own eyes, many people who were used to the incompatibility of good and evil would not believe that the paladins and the dark guards could serve under the same government without serious conflict.
Su Lun is apparently one of the gods who is observing the development of the West Coast Empire.
She raised her hand and gently smoothed the long hair hanging by her ears, her eyes gleaming with anticipation, and said softly: "I have seen the possibilities you have shown, and hope to see more in the days to come.
After all, the world needs some changes, especially good changes.
I believe you have the will and the ability to lead mortals on an unprecedented path.
Goodbye, interesting young man.
To thank you for your help this time, I will give you a small gift when we meet next time."
As the last word came out of her mouth, the Moon Goddess turned into a cold light and disappeared on the spot.
As soon as Su Lun left, the magic goddess Midnight put on a lazy look and casually put her feet on the table, revealing a part of her calf hidden under the silk robe, and the dark transparent stockings wrapped on her calf.
Ever since Zuo Si brought this thing to Faerun, many goddesses who love beauty would add it to themselves when creating avatars to increase their charm and attractiveness.
What's more, Midnight is now in a very close relationship with the new God of Death, Clemvor, so it is natural that she is dressed sexy. God knows what they do when they meet and date in private.
Fortunately, Midnight didn't know the blasphemous thoughts in Zuo Si's mind at the moment, and asked on his own: "You secretly went to the Luoyan Desert not long ago, right?"
"Well, yes, I did go there."
Zuo Si gave an affirmative answer without any concealment.
After all, he is the Chosen One, with a large amount of Silver Fire in his body and soul. As long as he is active within the scope of Toril, it is impossible to hide it from the other party.
"To seek the lost magical knowledge and technology of the High Imaskar Empire?"
Midnight blinked uncertainly.
Zuo Si shook his head meaningfully: "No, I am going to look for the two crystal prisons where the God Slayer Pandrem is imprisoned."
"What? God-killer!"
Hearing this name, Midnight's pupils suddenly dilated, and the whole person jumped up from the chair, and asked in a very stern tone: "Are you crazy? Or do you also want to destroy the world? Do you know how dangerous that thing is?"
“Relax, my dear goddess, you are overreacting.
Based on the information I have so far, the Pandrem, like the Eldrazi Titans, are some kind of creature from the Dark Void.
So as a planeswalker, I am a professional in dealing with this kind of things.
And I'm not doing this to destroy the world, I'm doing this to defuse this unstable time bomb."
As Zuo Si explained, he casually handed the hot tea he had just poured to Midnight.
However, the third generation magic goddess no longer had the mood to drink tea, her face was full of tension and solemnity.
"Tell me, have you found one of the crystal prisons and turned the God Butcher into some kind of dangerous weapon or item?"
"Haha, you really know me. That's right, I used its body to forge a divine weapon, a sword that can kill powerful gods."
As he spoke, sparks of dazzling light began to flash on Zuo Si's chest, and he slowly pulled out the unfinished Void Sword about two finger widths.
moment!
That breath of destruction gave Midnight an unprecedented sense of crisis.
As the goddess of magic, she could feel more than any other god the horrific destruction that this sword could cause when connected to the dark void.
It was an annihilation that could not be resisted or defended by any divine power, a complete death from a logical and philosophical level.
Just as Zuo Si said, this is an outright god-killing weapon.
Once a god's body is stabbed, the chance of survival will definitely not exceed 20 percent.
Even if you are lucky enough not to die, you will be seriously injured and leave a wound that will never heal.
Pah! As the Void Sword was inserted back into the sealed scabbard, Midnight finally came back to his senses from the shock and exclaimed in an extremely complicated tone: "You are definitely the craziest, most unscrupulous and terrifying guy I have ever seen in my life.
Even Xirik has to stand aside when compared to you.
At least his "Book of Xirik" cannot kill a god with one blow.
But the sword you forged can.
Promise me you'll hide it.
Don't use it unless you have to."
“Yes, I know the stakes involved.
The reason I'm showing it here today is because I trust you to keep it a secret.
Besides, even if the gods knew, what could they do?
I have obtained the tacit approval of His Majesty Ao, the God above all gods.
Otherwise, from the moment the seal is lifted, he will show up and stop me from doing anything next.
He did not choose to stop me because he hoped that I could deal with this dangerous void creature that posed a huge threat to the entire world."
After saying that, Zuo Si put away the most powerful weapon in his hand so far.
Since it is forged with dark void energy, it cannot be made into a card like other weapons, and can only be carried carefully.
Midnight nodded thoughtfully: "Okay, I hope you are right. But I didn't feel the consciousness of the God Slayer just now, which means you only sealed its body, right?"
"Um.
One of my simulacra is continuing to search the desert for the location of the second crystal prison.
Once we find it, we will go over and seal Pandrem's consciousness inside as well.
But this is obviously not easy.
Although the Luoyan Desert is not large in area, it buried many important towns from the Imaskar Empire.
Please don't worry about safety issues.
I have prepared the power crystals that seal the three Eldrazi Titans, so taking it down should not be a problem."
Zuo Si gave the magic goddess in front of him a reassurance.
"Be careful, don't try to be brave. The God Butcher's consciousness is not as easy to deal with as his body." Midnight warned solemnly.
"Understood. By the way, last time I asked you to help investigate the relationship between the first generation of magic goddess and the wizard king of Netheril, Larloch. Have you made any progress?"
Zuo Si changed the subject, his eyes revealing a blazing fire of gossip.
There was no way. He was so curious about what happened between the two of them back then that Lalok, who had turned into a lich, had been obsessed with it for so many years and willingly became a "suck-up".
"They... they are suspected of having been lovers in the past."
Midnight's face turned slightly red when he said this.
After all, the magic goddess is the embodiment of the magic network itself, even if she is replaced three times one after another, her essence is the same.
Therefore, as long as she knew what the former goddess of magic did, it would immediately evoke the memories stored deep in the magic network and produce emotions of empathy.
"Lover? The First Magic Goddess and Larrock!
Wow!
This is big news.
Now I finally understand why he is so obsessed with reviving the first generation Magic Goddess.
Love is really an incredible thing.
I never thought that the cold-blooded wizard king of Netheril could actually be a romantic. "
Zuo Si stroked his chin with an amused and teasing expression.
This melon is really delicious.
But what is more interesting is that after the great arcanists of the Netheril era transformed into liches, they did not seem to lose their emotions due to the erosion of negative energy.
The best proof is that Ovo fell in love with Leila, one of the Seven Sisters of the North, and Lalok fell in love with the first generation magic goddess.
Of course, the demigod Iolum is not bad either. He directly merged with the Mind Flayer mastermind. Who can guarantee that this is not an alternative kind of love?
The Archmages are indeed extraordinary, even their XP are so special.
"Help me keep an eye on Larok. He's a dangerous man, and who knows what conspiracy he might be planning in secret. I have other things to deal with, so I won't chat with you here any more."
As the last word came out of his mouth, Midnight instantly merged into the magic net and left the material world, leaving Zuo Si sitting alone on the chair, not knowing what he was thinking about.
