This is the kingdom of Talona. At first glance, it looks almost like a temple of nature, with pristine and dense rainforests, forests, swamps, mountains and wilderness everywhere.
Countless animals and plants live and multiply here, forming one complex and ever-changing ecosystem after another.
But the difference is that the world of the cycle of all things is not a barren land, but there is civilization, and even cities and even kingdoms have been established in the areas with the richest resources.
Although they are still in a relatively primitive state in the eyes of modern people, they have used magic and biotechnology to transform some local large creatures with flying abilities and obtained aerial transportation tools in advance.
This means that the city-states and kingdoms are not isolated by geographical factors. Instead, trade and exchanges are extremely prosperous, and the overall style is very strange.
However, only those who live in this country know that the most distinctive feature of the world of living things is the ubiquitous and highly active microorganisms, including fungi, bacteria and viruses.
The bodies of any dead organisms will be quickly decomposed by them and then return to the ecological cycle as nutrients.
In addition, in those sparsely populated jungle swamps, various organisms carrying highly toxic substances, bacteria, fungi and viruses are fighting and devouring each other in a very cruel way, and evolving together in a more deadly direction.
Some plane merchants even came here at great risk just to obtain those legendary poisonous creatures that could instantly kill even ancient dragons.
At this moment, Zuo Si was standing in the most mysterious Death Swamp in the kingdom, admiring with interest the large and small Catachan barking toads from the Warhammer universe in the distance, with an interested expression on his face.
Because they are no longer the most primitive version, but super magical creatures that have evolved at least dozens of times under the influence of Talona's divine power. They are truly biological nuclear bombs.
Especially the giant barking toad, the impact range has expanded from the original one kilometer to the current seven or eight kilometers, and the toxin will continue to spread outward with the air flow and water, which is basically equivalent to a nuclear warhead with terrible radioactive contamination.
The most powerful of them is the King Toad, an absolute divine creature. Even gods who are immune to poison would be severely injured if they were hit by it.
The only regret is that this kind of King Toad is not something that can be mass-produced, so Zuo Si only caught some and made them into summoning creature cards for use in case of emergency.
[Creature Card: Barking Toad - King Toad Group (150)]
[LV25 Black Card (Cannot be upgraded)]
[Card Quality: Precious]
[Effect: Summon a group of super divine toads native to the planet Catachan.
On average, the destructive radius of each explosion exceeds twenty kilometers, melting all matter within the affected area into liquid, and can instantly severely damage or even destroy the incarnation of weak divine power.
They can cast invisibility three times and greater teleportation once a day, and can enter the battlefield in an instant.
Note that while the King Toad can understand force and obey simple commands, it is still a very easily startled creature.
Once frightened, they will immediately start to explode uncontrollably one after another.
[Using this card requires 500 black mana or 500 universal mana, and 1,000 divine power or divine-like power]
[When all summoned King Toads die, this card will automatically enter the cemetery and wait for rebirth for 400 days]
There is no doubt that the terrifying lethality and destructive power of this creature can be felt just from the text description on the card.
Although its visual effect and killing range may not be comparable to that of a super bomb like the whirlwind fish, which can completely burn all the creatures and environment on the surface of a planet with one shot, it cannot be compared with a star destroyer cannon that can blow an entire planet into pieces with one shot.
But its real advantage lies in its absolute destruction within the effective killing radius, and its versatility in that it can still function stably even in the magic world.
Even gods and their incarnations would suffer severe damage, not to mention other creatures.
This is why Zuo Si, who already has many powerful weapons, still attaches so much importance to the Catachan Barking Toad.
"How is it? Are you satisfied with the King Toad I trained?"
Talona, who was wearing a dark green low-cut dress, asked with a doting smile on her face.
"Very satisfied, even better than I imagined. It seems that your place is the perfect breeding ground for the continuous evolution of this barking toad."
Zuo Si gave an affirmative answer without hesitation.
After all, when he sent these big toads here, he just hoped to use the goddess's priesthood to strengthen them, and it would be best if they could gain some magical abilities.
But who could have imagined that in such a short period of time, there would be such a powerful weapon as "Wang Chan".
Moreover, other giant toads and small toads have also gained the ability to cast spells, whether it is invisibility or teleportation, which makes their already terrifying toxicity even more terrible.
Just imagining the spectacular scene of these barking toads of all sizes suddenly appearing among the enemy through teleportation magic and self-destructing, the corners of Zuo Si's mouth would rise uncontrollably.
He even figured out how to use the spark oil to refine it, eventually turning it into a super biochemical weapon with the abilities of invisibility, teleportation, high-speed movement and jumping.
"In that case, how are you going to thank me?"
Talona threw her arms around her constituent's neck, and both her tone and attitude were full of temptation and suggestion.
"I think we might need a room right now, and a bed big enough for it."
Having said that, Zuo Si certainly knew what he should do.
Anyway, the two of them have been maintaining this kind of relationship for a long time.
"Haha, I like your straightforwardness."
Talona smiled, raised her hand and snapped her fingers.
moment!
A house made entirely of wood and vines appeared out of nowhere. Inside was not only a spacious and soft bed, but also many clothes and supplies to add interest.
In just a few seconds, the goddess changed into a translucent black silk bodysuit, pushed Zuo Si down and rode on him.
This unknown intimate interaction lasted for about several hours.
By the time it was over, it was already evening outside. The golden sunset shone into the wooden house through the window, making everything around look so romantic and beautiful.
After finishing his work, Zuo Si was now dressed neatly and stood at the window as usual, looking out into the distance and admiring the beautiful sunset.
Talona also changed into her original dark green dress and lay on the bed in a lazy and contented manner, holding her chin and asking with interest: "I heard that you have encountered some troubles recently? And you killed an incarnation of Gruumsh?"
“Well, yes.
In fact, all of this should have been instigated by Shar, the goddess of the night.
She seemed to be planning something big, so she was afraid that I would find out and expose her in advance like before, so she deliberately brought all my past enemies together.
As for Gruumsh...
I already had a score to settle with him, so I just happened to take care of it together."
Zuo Si did not hide anything and expressed his thoughts openly.
Because in Faerun, the two gods who have the closest relationship with him are Oghma, the god of knowledge, and Talona.
The former, because they have similar thoughts, ideas and values, often discuss together certain knowledge and philosophies from other time and space.
A lot of fragmented and unsystematic magical knowledge was sorted out with the help of Oghma, who even developed blue oil that can store information and technology.
The latter finally gains recognition by expressing love again and again regardless of cost and at any price.
After all, Talona has never been absent at the most critical moments.
"Sha'r?"
A hint of strong hostility flashed in the goddess' eyes, and then she said in an uncertain tone: "I heard that she seemed to have been to the Temple of Nature recently and had contact with Silvanus, the Father of Oak."
"Oh? Could it be that this guy wants to drag the God of Nature into this?"
Zuo Si was obviously stunned for a moment.
Although to some extent, Silvanus could be considered his enemy, the fight between the two sides was always maintained within a certain range and they did not really break off completely.
To be precise, the two sides are fighting for the right to define nature.
The Oak Father believed that nature was wilderness and forest, a place that was not interfered with by any civilization.
This can be seen from his priesthood and the areas he controls.
But Zuo Si's view is exactly the opposite. He believes that nature is a series of changes in the complex climate, magnetic field, ecology, etc. of the entire planet.
Things like cutting down trees, hunting animals, polluting and destroying the environment are not a big deal for a planet.
Even the worst case scenario is that the organisms that rely on this environment will become extinct on a large scale, and then species that can adapt to the new environment will quickly rise to fill the ecological niche.
Compared with the insignificant impact that intelligent life can cause, what is truly terrifying is the horrific ecological extinction caused by the "version update" and the horrifying ice age.
In this regard, just look at how many biological explosions and mass extinctions the Earth has experienced since the birth of life to understand how small and fragile the so-called civilization was before entering the interstellar age.
Even the history of the continent of Faerun has experienced such situations several times.
The most famous is the decline and extinction of the creator race.
And this was only tens of thousands of years ago.
Most importantly, Silvanus's over-protection of wilderness and forests has seriously affected the development of civilization, and even prevented people from logging, grazing, and reclaiming new land.
That's why Zuo Si uprooted its influence in the West Coast Empire.
The Druid sects under his command either converted or were ruthlessly exterminated.
But that's all.
The conflicts and contradictions neither crossed the line nor escalated further.
Most importantly, like Oghma, the god of knowledge, Silvanus' influence is not limited to Faerûn, but is spread across multiple planes.
This means that he will not put all his energy here, and will rarely get involved in high-risk conspiracies.
"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on it. Once Silvanus takes any action, you will definitely get the information at the first time."
The expression on Talona's face suddenly became serious.
Because she is competing with the Oakfather for the title of "Goddess of Nature".
If successful, the latter's influence in the Crystal Wall of Toril will fall from great power to medium power, and will no longer pose a threat to Talona.
"Thank you very much."
Zuo Si looked obviously very relaxed, not worried at all that Silvanus might come down and join in.
After all, the more ancient and powerful the gods are, the more wary and distant they will be from Shar.
Talona got up from the bed and walked to the window. She gently pressed her whole body on Zuo Si's back and stood on tiptoe to whisper in his ear: "What are you going to do next to deal with these guys who took the initiative to provoke a war?"
"I am going to visit Corellon and Moradin to try to forge an alliance against the orcish pantheon.
Then he went to visit Bane and worked together to set a trap to make Magnubiye his servant.
In other words, the strategy is to adopt a tough suppression strategy against the Orc pantheon, and to adopt a strategy of threats and intimidation to force the Goblin gods to submit.
Without them, selfish gods like Lolth would quickly leave on their own.
As for Cyric...
I promise to make him look like a clown once again."
Zuo Si told his plan without turning his head.
"I just like the way you are always rational and calm no matter what situation you face, and you have more than one set of response plans."
After saying that, Talona opened her mouth and bit her ear lightly, leaving a few teeth marks. Then she smiled charmingly, and then her whole body became more and more transparent until she completely disappeared into the air.
Zuo Si was obviously accustomed to this, so he just chuckled and shook his head, then activated the planeswalker spark and left the goddess' kingdom.
However, what he didn't know was that in the huge palace located in the center of the entire plane, Talona's body was collecting the life essence containing genetic material and carefully integrating it with her own divinity and spiritual essence.
The moment the two sides came into contact, a dazzling light instantly illuminated the entire world of the cycle of all things.
Even the sun above seemed dim in comparison.
But the light came and went quickly, and it returned to its original state just a few seconds later.
However, the goddess in the palace, who originally had a slim and sexy figure, now had a slightly bulging belly, and her face was filled with the sacred maternal glow.
Seeing this, Lavetta couldn't help but ask, "Are you sure you don't need to discuss this with Soth in advance?"
"Discuss? Why should we discuss?
It's not that he has no children. He has a daughter and another one is about to be born.
Even the fallen paladin is now pregnant.
Besides, I plan to give Soth a surprise."
Talona gently stroked her bulging belly and said as a matter of course.
Hearing this, the corners of Lavita's mouth twitched slightly, and she murmured, "Surprise? I think it's more like a shock.
You must know that you are now a member of the powerful divine power.
And they don't use incarnations or mortal bodies to give birth to offspring.
Rather, it is directly united with one's own divine essence.
The offspring of Soth and mortal women are already so powerful, I can't even imagine what your offspring will be like.
Please don't create any terrible gods or ancient evil things."
When saying this, both Lovita's tone and eyes were full of worry.
But Talona responded nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter. Soth is a planeswalker anyway. Even if it's a powerful evil god or an ancient evil creature, he can find a suitable place to accommodate it. And I think that he and I may be able to give birth to a pantheon together, just like the elven god Corellon."
"Giving birth to a pantheon? Are you crazy?"
Lovita stared at this good sister and main god with a slightly horrified look.
"Why not? You see, I have tried so hard to win over those natural gods, but in the end, I have achieved little success for so long.
In this case, why don't I give birth to my own offspring to expand the pantheon? With the power of Soth and I, we can use the spark of the planeswalker to expand the pantheon to the endless time and space of the entire multiverse."
Talona opened her arms as if she wanted to embrace something, and her whole body exuded a chilling ambition.
Of course, the main reason why she had such an idea was because of the arrival of the Phoenix God Bennu in Faerun.
This made the goddess realize that as long as she could get the help of the planeswalkers, it would be possible to expand her followers and influence across the universe.
Moreover, once they have settled down in different time and space, it doesn't matter even if they fail and are expelled from one or two worlds, and there is no need to worry about going to the astral realm to lie dead after death.
Because its sacred spiritual essence can still be transferred to other universes and continue.
"Damn it! You must not forget me about this kind of thing. I want a piece of the pie, too."
Lovita obviously herself realized the great opportunity contained therein, and her eyes revealed uncontrollable excitement. At the same time, she kept whipping with the whip in her hand, leaving bloody marks on the surface of her body.
You have to know that she usually only wears a black leather jacket similar to a sexy outfit, which can barely cover a few key parts, and large areas of skin are directly exposed to the air.
Especially the originally white and sexy back, which has a large number of iron rings embedded in the muscles, just be able to be hung up with ropes when necessary to feel more pain.
"Of course I don't mind giving you a piece of the pie. But the prerequisite is that you have to prove your loyalty."
Talona reached out and gently stroked the beautiful and delicate face of her former good sister.
"No problem. I know what to do."
Lovita took up the other's right hand and placed it on her lips studded with sharp nails and kissed it gently, then bent down and bowed deeply.
This time, Lovita didn't make any sound, she just raised her head and revealed a pair of chilling eyes.
Obviously, in addition to the counter-plan formulated by Zuo Si, Talona obviously also has her own ideas, and Lavita is the executor of this idea.
After all, the goddess of abuse gets along very well with the beast goddess Mara, and Mara will definitely be used by Shar.
Therefore, the two sides will inevitably engage in a game around the Beast God Mara.
…
At the same time, far away in the kingdom of the Magic Goddess of the Heart of Spells, Midnight was enthusiastically reading through the magic knowledge that Zuo Si brought back from other time and space.
After a long while, she raised her head and asked Azuth, the god of mages: "How much of this knowledge do you think can be integrated into the magic network to make the magic of the world of Toril more colorful?"
"Um--
I think it is better to be conservative when it comes to modifying the underlying rules of the magic network.
You also know that Soth has used his abilities as a planeswalker to connect the major cities of the West Coast Empire to more than one level of spellcasting environment.
So even if you modify the underlying rules of the magic network, many mages will begin to try to learn and utilize these powers.
I personally recommend maintaining the status quo, waiting for more people to adapt to and get used to the multi-casting environment, and then directly let Soth help expand the coverage.
This will not only allow magic to flourish, but also ensure that losses can be stopped in time when problems arise."
Azus thought for a moment and gave his suggestion.
As the God of Mages who was promoted by the second generation Goddess of Magic, he was obviously well aware of the tragedy of the end of the Netheril era. It was precisely because the first generation Goddess of Magic was too indulgent to the arcanists, which fostered the ambitions and arrogance of these arrogant mortals.
Therefore, he has always been conservative about the left-wing idea of establishing a magical civilization that surpasses Netheril, neither opposing nor supporting it.
Especially after the construction of the super-giant magic maze covering the major cities, the situation where everyone can use some magical power, as well as the increasingly bold and crazy research of arcane spellcasters, all made Azuth feel inexplicably worried.
The only thing to be thankful for is that the West Coast Empire is a highly centralized country. Unlike the arcanists of the Netheril era who established a loose alliance centered on the floating city, the relationships between them are equal and independent.
Just the opposite!
In addition to abiding by the law, spellcasters within the West Coast Empire are also under the direct control of the Order of the Arcane Magic.
Almost all arcane spellcasters who gain the ability to cast spells above the seventh level will undergo the test to become one of them.
Otherwise, there is no way to obtain the most profound magical knowledge and the resources necessary to become a legendary wizard.
The Arcane Society takes orders directly from Zuo Si himself, and all of its core members are liches who have handed over their life boxes.
Under such a management model, as long as Zuo Si, who is at the top, remains sober, the entire system will not have any major problems.
Even if a few ignorant guys want to cause trouble, they will be quickly suppressed, and such an outrageous thing as Karsus usurping control of the magic network will never happen.
"You mean... to give this power to Soth?"
There was a hint of hesitation in Midnight's tone.
As the god of magic and the incarnation of the magic network, she did not have much aversion to the spellcasting environment that was connected to other time and space in Faerun, nor did she feel that her authority was challenged.
After all, vaccination access is a two-way street.
Spellcasters on the other side will also discover the existence of the magic network and begin to learn and use this magical power within its range of influence.
Therefore, the number of users accessing the magic network has not decreased, but has increased significantly.
The most important thing is that as the God of Magic, no matter whether the spellcasters on the continent of Faerun use the magic network or the magical environment from other time and space, the final result is to increase the overall number of mortal spellcasters.
The substantial increase in the number of spellcasters will lead to more and more magic-related inventions, and the influence of the Goddess of Magic will inevitably become greater and greater.
That's why Midnight supported Zuo Si in the disagreement and struggle between him and the First Elector Elminster.
Azus obviously knew what his Lord was thinking, and he explained with a smile, “I believe you should be aware that since the last battle with the being who claimed to be the Lord of the Dark Dimension, Dormammu, he has seized almost half of the latter’s territory.
To a large extent, Soth has acquired the essence of mystery and magic.
Now he is on the same level as you.
So you don't have to worry about losing control.
And the good thing about doing this is that even if you fail you can stand up and minimize the harm.
After all, you are the magic goddess of the crystal wall where Toril is located. When necessary, you can isolate or even expel all these external spellcasting environments."
Midnight nodded thoughtfully: "Okay, what you said makes sense, I will take some time to discuss it with Soth.
By the way, hasn’t Talos, the God of Storms, released the God of Undead Magic as agreed?
He clearly promised me that he would release Jebido Turan to the Heart of Spell after the contract ended.
How long has it been?"
When saying this, the Magic Goddess' tone and attitude revealed strong dissatisfaction.
"I have sent people to negotiate. I believe that the Storm God Talos will not risk offending you by continuing to detain Jebido Turan. In a few weeks at most, you will have a new subordinate god."
Azus quickly signaled to his Lord God to stay calm.
Although he also sympathized with this demigod who was inexplicably pushed onto the throne of God and was exploited by the crazy and unreasonable powerful power of Talos just after becoming a god, he did not want a conflict to break out among the angry gods because of this.
"Go tell Talos that my patience is not unlimited. If he continues to hold Jebido Turan hostage, he is encroaching upon my domain, and I reserve the right to take any action I can."
Midnight issued a very serious warning.
In the crystal wall where the planet Toril is located, no one can ignore the attitude of the most powerful magic goddess under Io, the supreme god.
Because as long as she is willing to pay enough, she can definitely cause heavy losses to any powerful divine power, even the oldest goddess of the night, Shar, is no exception.
Azuth quickly responded, "Please rest assured that I will convey your message to the Storm God. However, compared to this matter, I think you should pay more attention to the recent conflict between Soth and the Orc God."
But Midnight waved his hand nonchalantly: "Don't worry about it. Gruumsh and his orc pantheon are not enough to pose any substantial threat to Soth. The one we really need to keep an eye on is Shar. Doesn't Savras have any prophecy about this?"
“Sorry, not yet.
Of course, it is also possible that he foresaw something, but was unable to figure out the truth because he was troubled.
After all, the goddess of night controls the duties of illusion, deception, secrecy, etc., which greatly restrains Savras's prophetic power."
Azus showed a helpless expression on his face.
After all, he had defeated the God of Prophecy when he was still a mortal, and even imprisoned him in a scepter, turning it into a sacred artifact.
The two reached a reconciliation after the turmoil ended, and Savras took the initiative to admit defeat and became a subordinate god of the God of Mages.
"The prophecy has been disturbed? So Shar might really be planning some huge conspiracy?"
Midnight's eyes suddenly became alert, and then he put his consciousness into the magic network, trying to find clues from the memories of the previous two generations of magic goddesses.
You know, since becoming the third-generation magic goddess, she actually rarely looks at the memories of her predecessor, especially the extremely explosive and chaotic private life of the second-generation magic goddess, which is even worse than some small movies.
But now I obviously can't care about that much.
Just as many gods noticed the complex game behind the conflict between Zuo Si and Geumsh, in a private house far away in Susal, the capital of the Kingdom of Cormyr, a group of people wearing masks, leather armor or black robes were secretly gathering together and praying to the huge dark sun symbol hanging high up, with abnormal fanaticism in their eyes.
“Praise you!
Great Prince of Lies, Cyric! Any mortal who dares to despise you and resist you will surely die!
We surrender to your supreme power and kill the weak and hypocrites under your guidance! You are the only truth in this world! Only you can give us the power to plunge the world into endless chaos and fear! "
…
It has to be said that since their influence plummeted after being beaten up by the gods, those mortals who still believe in Xirik have not shown any signs of waking up. Instead, they have become more like lunatics and psychopaths than before.
Right now, in front of this unknown secret altar, there are dozens of corpses with their blood drained out placed densely. Judging from the state of the corpses, they had suffered cruel abuse and torture before their death, which was even more cruel than the devil's sacrifice. Among them are children under ten years old and newborn babies.
You must know that the Church of the Prince of Lies is a banned cult throughout the entire West Coast.
The West Coast Empire even offered a bounty. Anyone who captured or killed an ordinary follower of Xirik would receive a reward of fifty gold coins, and the informant would receive half of that.
As for pastors and church organizers, the price is even higher, often thousands or even tens of thousands of gold coins.
With such a high bounty, they have basically no room to survive.
But the situation in the Kingdom of Cormyr is obviously somewhat special.
On the one hand, the traditional feudal system made it difficult for the royal family to extend its influence into the territories of other nobles;
On the other hand, after becoming the regent, Yalusel ruthlessly suppressed some dishonest nobles, and even took the opportunity to uproot those nobles who participated in the rebellion that led to the deaths of Assan IV and his sister.
Many of those who escaped during the chaos hated the royal family to their core.
Some of them occupied the mountains and became kings in the countryside far away from the city, plundered caravans, and contacted other nobles to prepare for a rebellion that would sweep the country. Others sneaked into the capital and used their family's past network of contacts to do things in secret.
Many of these people chose to believe in Xirik in order to gain power.
Because this madman is particularly keen to participate in this conspiracy to create chaos, killing and destruction in order to regain his power.
As long as the perception attribute is qualified, there is a high probability that you will obtain divine arts and become a low-level priest.
Soon, accompanied by the chanting of a dozen believers of noble origin, the mark of the Dark Sun suddenly came to life and transformed into a thin human male with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks.
He is none other than the Prince of Lies who has come incarnate.
In an instant, this group of believers filled with anger and hatred became even more fanatical, and they all prostrated themselves on the blood-stained ground to welcome the coming of the gods.
"Great Supreme God! Is there anything we can do for you?" The head of the church raised his head and asked cautiously.
Due to Cyric's chaotic nature, he does not have a unified church at all, but is instead scattered into large and small factions that compete and are hostile to each other.
It is also because of this that it is almost impossible to eradicate its influence in the mortal world.
This middle-aged man in his early forties is the leader of this small underground church organization.
"Of course! I have a very, very important task for you."
Xirik grinned into a chilling, crazy smile.
"We listen to your teachings."
The man hurriedly lowered his head and kissed the lie prince's boots to show his obedience.
Xirik ordered bluntly: "As nobles of the Kingdom of Cormyr, you should all know that the current regent, Iron Princess Yalusel, is pregnant and about to give birth, right?
My task for you is simple: to spread rumors and provoke a war for the throne within Cormyr.
It would be best if all the nobles who were still loyal to Assan V started a rebellion.
I want to make this country a land of complete bloodshed and chaos."
When the middle-aged man heard this, he immediately showed an ecstatic expression, and then clenched his fists and said, "We are very happy to obey your will. But the problem is that our family territory has been confiscated by Yalusel, and now it has little influence at all."
"Here, take this with you. It can induce the madness and dark side of a person's heart. You just need to put it next to the leader of the faction who is loyal to Assan V, and he will become the person we need in a very short time."
As he spoke, Xirik pulled out a gray metal brooch that emitted a strange glow from his pocket.
If anyone present used magical vision, they would immediately see the brilliant light emanating from above.
There is no doubt that this is an authentic artifact, made by him personally.
Unless they can get the protection of other gods, mortals will be unable to resist.
The middle-aged man hurriedly took the brooch with both hands, a bloodthirsty and cruel smile appeared on his face, as if he had seen the nobles of the entire Kingdom of Cormyr fighting for the right to inherit the throne.
Not long after, he and his men left the inconspicuous house and disappeared at the end of the empty alley at night.
Just as these mortal believers left, Shar appeared in front of Xirik and asked with a smile: "If I'm not mistaken, you should be targeting another descendant of Soth, right?"
“Hahahahahaha!
That's right!
I believe you have also felt the pure dark power in Yalusel's body.
This child has great potential.
If we can seize it, brainwash and control it, we can turn it into a sharp blade to use against Soth.
How about it, do you want to come and join in?"
Cyric extended the invitation, laughing like a madman.
"no thanks."
Shar decisively chose to refuse.
Although she is always trying to do something big, she is never a crazy god. Every decision she makes is carefully considered, knowing how serious the consequences of Xirik's behavior may be.
Especially the violent reaction that Zuo Si might have, just thinking about it makes people's scalp tingle.
"Really? That's a shame. I thought you would be very interested in this child."
Xirik put on a regretful expression.
Shar simply smiled and responded, "I am indeed interested in the child, but the risk of taking him is too high. And I don't think Thors would not arrange some security around his offspring."
"No, you are too cautious.
Just watch, I will announce my return to the whole world with a grand revenge.
Whether it's Soth, or those two bitches Midnight and Clemvor, they will pay the price for humiliating me before.
I will destroy what they value most! Make them feel pain!
Unforgettable pain! "
Xirik drew out the long sword hanging at his waist, put it against his face and gently drew a bloody mark horizontally.
In a flash!
The surface of the bloodstain was covered with densely packed symbols and words containing terrifying curses.
Ever since the disappearance of the God-Slaying Sword transformed from the God of Thieves Musk, he created this new artifact for himself and vowed to kill all enemies one day, even his temporary ally, the Goddess of Night Shar.
Shar did not make any comment on Xirik's self-mutilation. She just stood there with a mysterious smile.
The two gods stared into each other's eyes for a full minute before opening the portal and returning to their respective homes.
They obviously all knew that the other party was using them to achieve ulterior motives.
But what does that matter?
Especially Xirik, his real motive has always been very simple, which is revenge.
He didn't care at all how many people were killed or what kind of damage was caused in the process of revenge.
And what Shar wants is exactly this kind of reckless madness and neurosis.
Only in this way can the attention of Zuo Si and his allies be diverted, and she can release the nightmare snake Dendel in to devour the sun, restoring the entire crystal wall to its original state of darkness.
