"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 seeping 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.
大概几分钟之后,两位浑身上下散发着神光的美丽女神便出现在法师塔的会客厅内。
其中月之女神苏伦更是一见面就急不可耐的问:“你的消息准确吗?我那位邪恶的姊妹真的想要释放梦魇巨蛇丹德尔毁灭世界?”
“没错。如果不相信的话,您只需要去调查一下艾寿多,以及现如今在楚尔特丛林内发生的事情就知道了。”
左思直截了当给出肯定的答复。
因为他太了解夜之女神莎尔的意图和性格了。
如果把谎言王子希瑞克比作一个神经病,那么莎尔就是不折不扣的恐怖分子。
只要一有机会,夜之女神就会千方百计制造毁灭性的破坏、杀死出自己之外的任何神明。
“该死!她可真是越来越疯狂、越来越大胆了。”
苏伦显然也被这个计划吓了一跳,其中一只手死死攥着神器——肆月之杖。
午夜深以为然的点了点头:“是啊,我们绝对不能让她得逞。索斯,说说你的看法吧。我想你既然察觉到了这个阴谋肯定有相应的对策,不是吗?”
左思无奈的苦笑道:“您也太看得起我了。
拜托,这个可是一位最古老的强大神力,以我现如今所掌握的力量是不可能打的赢。
我认为现在最好的应对措施就是尽可能把这件事情透露给其他足够强大的神明知道。
不管是以正义之神提尔为首的三圣同盟,还是晨曦之主洛山达、大地母神裳禔亚、战争之神坦帕斯等强大神力。
只要知道的神足够多,就可以联合起来进行施压,甚至是以发起神战作为威胁。
由于有希瑞克这个前车之鉴作为例子,相信她应该会选择放弃而不是死扛到底。
毕竟释放梦魇巨蛇丹德尔吞噬一切可不符合大多数神明的利益。”
“可她要是不承认怎么办?”
苏伦显然是了解莎尔的,一下子就提出了相当尖锐的问题。
可左思却不以为然的回答:“承认与否无所谓,主要是让这件事情让诸神都知道并有所防备。
阴谋之所以是阴谋,就因为它只能在别人不知道的时候才能发挥作用。
一旦暴露在阳光之下就会无所遁形。
更何况我记得诸神当年跟乌塔欧签订过一份协议,任何外来的神都不能在楚尔特半岛传播信仰。
您完全可以在这件事情上做点文章,联合恐龙之神将其从半岛上驱逐出去。
如此一来,她在楚尔特丛林没有立足之地,自然也就无法继续释放丹德尔了。”
“听起来似乎是个不错的主意。感谢你提供了这个重要的情报,否则我们都还蒙在鼓里呢。”
苏伦站起身郑重其事的单手抚胸略微欠了欠身。
由于跟莎尔在创始之初就不停的争斗,因此她比其他任何神明都更加关注“好姐妹”的动作,更理解对方的阴险、狡诈和能给世界带来多么恐怖的灾难。
“请不必客气,保护费伦乃至托瑞尔人人有责。毕竟我们都生活在这里,要是丹德尔真的被放出来谁也别想置身事外。”
左思也跟着站起身还了一礼。
尽管现如今的月之女神只是个中等神力,但架不住人家辈分高、资历老,虽然阵营是混乱善良但教义却一点也不极端,反而充满了仁慈与包容性,是个十分好相处的女神。
哪怕月光神职被幽暗少女伊莉丝翠拿走、爱情神职被爱与美之神拿走,也从未产生过嫉妒、怨恨和想要夺回来的念头,反而跟对方相处的很好,甚至缔结了亲密的盟友关系。
苏伦饶有兴致打量着近在咫尺的年轻人,过了好一会儿才笑着说道:“你的确很特别。虽然身为巴托地狱第九层的领主和大魔鬼,可是却并没有展现出太多的冷酷、残暴与嗜血,反而让人觉得很理智且充满责任感。”
“您实在是太过奖了。
我所理解的邪恶和传统意义上定义的邪恶略有不同。
最重要的是我从不敌视善良与正义。
反而认为这是一种非常稀有、罕见且宝贵的品质,必须要多加鼓励、宣传。
不然的话要是整个社会都充斥着穷凶极恶、野心勃勃的家伙,那统治起来可就太累、太麻烦、太费脑子了。”
左思翘起嘴角半真半假的开了句玩笑。
这是为什么不管一个国家的统治和治理有多么垃圾,内部腐败、滥用职权、贪污受贿情况有多么严重,都会在公共宣传上拼命宣扬人性和道德中好的一面。
哪怕统治阶级自己压根一个字都不信。
理由很简单! 只有当大多数底层民众是“好”的、“善良”的、“顺从”的、“软弱”的,宁愿忍受贫穷和饥饿也不会奋起反抗发动血流成河的革命,这些人才能心安理得的继续剥削并享受权力财富带来的一切。
所以即便是对于暴君来说,统治范围内善良的民众越多,管理起来也就越加容易。
不然要是都跟散提尔堡、散塔林会那样遍地野心家,手下各个都盯着自己的上司想要取而代之,那不乱成一锅粥才怪呢。
左思在这方面显然是早就理解的非常透彻,因此给了圣武士团体和善神教会很多的社会职权,非但没有进行打压,而且还大力的进行扶持。
因此西海岸帝国现如今的状态让许多人乃至神明都有些看不懂。
甚至还有很多学者在观察总结这个新生庞大国家的独特运转机制。
作为国家至高无上的皇帝,左思无疑是典型的守序邪恶。
而作为次一级的内阁成员则什么阵营都有,虽然大部分都是邪恶或中立,但仍旧有一小部分负责社会公益项目的人是守序善良。
再次一级的官僚体系和司法体系更是形成了善良与邪恶诡异的对立统一。
有些部门邪恶阵营的人多一些,有些部门则善良阵营的人多一些。
他们相互之间形成了有趣的监督与制约。
最显眼的就是不管圣武士还是黑暗卫士团体,在西海岸帝国都拥有调查权与执法权。
当需要严办某个影响恶劣的案件时,中立的法院就会派遣黑暗卫士去进行调查抓捕,保证能以最快速度拿到证据并完成判罚。
当需要缓和与某个地区民众紧张关系的时候,法院则会派遣象征善良与正义的圣武士去,这样一来就不会让人觉得犯人是被冤枉的。
如果不是亲眼所见,很多习惯了正邪不两立的人都不敢相信,圣武士和黑暗卫士居然能在同一个政府的麾下效力并且不发生严重的冲突。
苏伦显然也是正在观察西海岸帝国发展的神明之一。
只见她抬起手轻轻捋了捋耳边垂下来的长发,眼睛里闪烁着期待的光芒,柔声说道:“我已经看到了你展示的那种可能性,并希望能在未来的日子里看到更多。
毕竟这个世界太需要一些变化,尤其是好的变化。
我认为你有这样的意愿、也有能力带领凡人走上一条前所未有的道路。
再见了,有趣的年轻人。
为了感谢你这次的帮助,我会在下次见面的时候送给你一件小礼物。”
伴随着最后一个字脱口而出,月之女神化作一道冷光消失在原地。
苏伦前脚刚走,魔法女神午夜后脚就摆出一副慵懒的样子,十分随意的将双脚搭在桌子上,露出一截隐藏在丝质长袍下边的小腿,还有小腿上包裹的深色透明丝袜。
自从左思把这玩意带到了费伦,很多爱美的女神在制造化身的时候都会给自己加上,以增添自己的魅力与吸引力。
更何况午夜现如今还跟新死神克兰沃处于如胶似漆的亲密状态,穿着自然也是不可避免走了性感路线,天知道两人私下里见面约会都干了些什么。
不过好在午夜并不知道左思此刻脑子里亵渎神明的想法,自顾自的询问道:“你不久之前偷偷去了一趟落湮沙漠,对吧?”
“嗯,是的,我的确去了一趟。”
左思没有任何遮掩的给出了肯定答复。
毕竟他可是选民,身体和灵魂中蕴含着大量的银火,只要是在托瑞尔星球范围内活动就不可能瞒得过对方。
“为了寻找至高伊玛斯卡帝国失落的魔法知识和技术?”
午夜用不是很确定的眨了眨眼睛。
左思意味深长的摇了摇头:“不,我是去寻找关押屠神者潘德瑞姆的两个水晶监牢了。”
“什么?屠神者!”
听到这个名字,午夜的瞳孔骤然放大,整个人腾的一下就从椅子上跳了起来,用十分严厉的语气质问:“你疯了吗?还是说你也想要毁灭世界?你知道那玩意有多危险?”
“放松,我亲爱的女神,您的反应有些过度了。
根据我目前得到的信息,潘德瑞姆跟奥札奇泰坦一样就是某种来自黑暗虚空的生物。
所以在处理这种事情上,我这个旅法师才是专业的。
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 alone sitting on the chair, not knowing what he was thinking about.
