Chapter 30
“Chi——!”
Suddenly a scream was heard in the dormitory.
The gray cat and the red cat looked at each other and saw the smile in each other's eyes.
Sure enough, something happened.
Vashak was in a very bad mood when he woke up, and a stupid bird suddenly ran to recognize his compatriots. Isn't that asking for a fight?
The gray and red cat clapped its paws childishly.
“This is the baptism He deserves.”
"Yes, to be our compatriot, you have to suffer this at least."
In the dormitory.
Vashak was furious and slapped the little black bird back into the box with one claw.
Yes, He shot the bird dead.
The little black bird was hit by the claws and his mind was dizzy. He then realized that this was a conspiracy of the gray and red cats and he had fallen into their trap!
But how could this be? He is a great Hades, tens of thousands of years old in nominal age and a dozen years old in real age. How could he be tricked so easily? Could it be that this bird's brain is too small and cannot temporarily bear the wisdom of the Hades, so it has become a stupid bird!
The little black bird sat down heavily, doubting God's life, and thinking carefully again.
What do you mean by "I will like the first person I see when I wake up"? That person is not Sleeping Beauty, but Vashak, the third-ranked Lord of the Abyss. I must be stupid to believe it! The little black bird thought about it and raised his vigilance, but his head still hurt.
The little white bird next door seemed to wake up, and squinted at the big bump on his head. It immediately snorted, with a strong sense of ridicule, and actually said: "Huh, my stupid brother."
The little black bird's fur immediately exploded, and he said with wide eyes, "What brother? How can I be your brother?"
The little white bird glanced at Him and said, "Aren't you?"
The little black bird was stunned. It seemed that it was indeed the case. Damn it. He was actually taken advantage of! He actually let his old enemy become his older brother!
However, He only realized one thing now. Although His nemesis was just born and had a naive consciousness, unlike Him who was a teenager, He did not seem to be ignorant.
Is he God after all?
The little black bird's confusion only lasted for a few seconds, because then he saw the little white bird trying to come over, but his claws slipped and his butt fell to the ground.
It looked like a snow-white ball hitting the ground.
The little black bird burst into laughter on the spot, and the depressed mood of being cheated just now was immediately relieved. You are still a newborn baby.
The little white bird was so embarrassed that he became angry and said, "Damn it, why did you come in here? This is supposed to be my territory!"
The little black bird staggered a few steps closer through the transparent wall and said, "Of course it's because my father likes me."
He is so outgoing that he can recognize someone's father so quickly. He doesn't look like the God of the Underworld at all.
Just as Inbosi speculated, he is the most special one among the underworld gods from ancient times to the present.
The most miraculous thing about Him is that, unlike the vast majority of gods, He does not discriminate against beings below God.
If divine inheritance is also a kind of genetic inheritance, then in His case there is no doubt that a genetic mutation has occurred.
Of course, no matter how the genes mutate, darkness repels light, and the fact that the God of Hades hates the God of Light is absolutely unchangeable.
The little white bird was so angry that it stomped its feet, but it also learned that this was its father's system space, and if it made a noise, its father would see it, so they could only "live in harmony".
Just bear with it. When he grows up, he will do it secretly when his father is not paying attention. The little white bird was brewing a plan to destroy the enemy, his eyes sparkling, thinking that there should be no darkness in the beautiful world he loved.
How could the little black bird not feel the hostility of its old enemy? Haha, it's used to it. His stupid second-to-last brother has no idea of the danger outside.
Thinking of this, the little black bird also had a happy plan brewing in his heart, and his dark eyes were shining.
-
Outside.
Xiusi was reading a book and he felt like there was some noise somewhere, but when he looked around he didn't notice anything.
After the hallucinations, I also had auditory hallucinations?
Is this... the old antique finally broke down?
Maybe I've been reading for too long and I'm tired.
Zeus understood the principle of combining work and rest, and just as he stood up and lowered his eyes, he saw the white cat yawning and walking towards him.
Hughes was shocked.
His third cub, Vashak, finally woke up. He could sleep for two or three days at a time, which was a bit lazy, although he had been like this since he was a child.
Vashak calmed down when he saw his father. He ran up to the table and said to Hughes, "Dad, take a rest. I'll watch the house."
Hughes was relieved, thinking that Vashak was indeed more mature. He nodded and walked into the dormitory.
Vassago then turned around and glanced coldly at the gray cat and the red cat.
The two cats shrank back in embarrassment.
The white cat's eyes were cold, and he snorted, thinking to himself, "You even summoned the God of Hell. What were you doing when I was asleep?"
The grey and red cat avoided eye contact at the same time, which was doing too much.
Specifically regarding this matter, it was mainly because of Bos's idea.
Inpos then told Vashak the whole story.
No matter what they did, in the final analysis, they were all for their father's hope.
After Vashak knew the situation, he didn't say anything, because how could he not know? Their father has always been like this. Seeing an animal dying and trying hard to survive, his father would definitely not stand idly by.
Otherwise, they would not have picked up their consciousness that should have disappeared, created bodies for them, and allowed them to continue to exist instead of being destroyed.
Back then, three or four creations were already a burden for my father. However, after he fell into the abyss, he continued to create more creatures, saying that it was to improve his creation skills and to level up, but in fact it was not the case at all.
It’s because—They cling to their Father for a shape, they don’t want to be destroyed, they don’t want to drift, they don’t want to be filled with uncertainty, they don’t want to be reduced to nothingness.
The Father created them one by one.
Thousands of years have passed, and the father is still as gentle as before, unable to ignore their cries for help.
“…”
Vashak's eyes changed, as if he no longer cared about Hades's affairs. He turned around and said, "So, what do you want to call me for?"
Imbos paused, "It's about the gods from another world. Eliog and Beelzebub went to the warp to check the situation and haven't come back yet."
Oh, even Beelzebub was invited.
Vashak said coldly: "So, they were eaten."
The two cats paused and their eyes changed slightly.
The "eating" mentioned by Vashak is the way most divine beings disappear.
God eats god, devours the godhood, digests the divine power, and when it is completely dissolved, the god that was eaten is destroyed, and the remaining god can possess dual divinity.
For example, in the Age of Gods, the God of Wind ate the God of Rain, and it took him two thousand years to digest and dissolve him, so he became the God of Wind and Rain, possessing dual divinity.
Generally speaking, there are fewer gods with dual divinity, because no god is easy to deal with. Secondly, it takes too long to digest and dissolve his divinity, during which time he himself will be relatively vulnerable and easily targeted by other gods, which is very risky.
In addition to bisexual gods, there are also trisexual gods.
There are only a handful of gods at this level, and they are all transcendent beings close to being the God King.
As for the four-spirit gods, their number is even smaller. It is extremely rare to find a divine consciousness that can stabilize the four divine natures and not let them go crazy, because "four" is an unstable structure.
There are almost no records of the Five Element Gods. Maybe they exist, maybe they don’t. It is said that they may exist, but they are just hidden. Or maybe, He is too magnificent, and ordinary gods are not worthy of recognizing Him.
Of course, these are just some opinions.
Gods have their own logic. There is also a saying that no matter who eats whom, once the God of Light and the God of Hades merge, they will be the strongest god in the world, regardless of the three or four natures. Besides, what's the use of ordinary divinity? There are also high and low divinities. After all, human life cannot be separated from wind and rain.
The gods in the original series are extremely high in divinity. Light and darkness, as the name suggests, are ranked at the top. The gods of wind and rain are natural gods at the bottom, and have almost no presence among gods, although they have a very strong presence among humans.
The logic of their existence as the Lords of the Abyss is different from that of God, but it must be said that there are some similarities.
They too can be eaten, just as they can eat God.
If God ate them, perhaps it would be beneficial.
But the prerequisite is that you can eat it.
Although Vassago said this, he obviously didn't think that Eliog and Beelzebub were likely to be eaten. He thought that they were most likely lost.
Beelzebub is cursed by the goddess of luck. Eliog has never liked Beelzebub and probably doesn't know about this. At the same time, these two guys are not good at space magic. The combined conclusion is that one plus one equals negative one, and they are trapped in the subspace.
Vassago smiled, a rare smile, and told the gray-red cat about this possibility.
The two cats were stunned when they heard this, and then they burst into laughter on the spot.
Moragos: "Haha, then they will have to live hand in hand in the warp."
In Persia gloated: "I never thought that they would have this day!"
They were chatting so happily that they ignored Xiusi who had turned back and was right next to them.
In Hughes' eyes, several cats rolled around, flapped their paws, and looked very happy. He was puzzled and wondered what was going on.
He looked around, nothing happened, so what were they laughing at?
Is it a happy topic unique to children?
Xiu Si was silent, feeling lonely as he was not present in the children's happiness.
They seemed to have just reacted, turned their heads together, and then froze.
Ah, my father saw me making fun of my compatriots!
The three cats' hearts tightened and they all froze in place.
But Hughes didn't ask anything. He showed an "I know all" expression and said calmly: "It's late. You can talk and laugh, but don't play too late."
The three cats watched their father walk into the bedroom again. Perhaps because they felt guilty, they didn't even dare to move their claws against Vashak.
Father should... know nothing, right?
They were talking in encrypted form just now.
Inbos turned to look at Vashak and said seriously: Stop laughing, let's get down to business. Vashak, what do you think about the Oss Empire?
Vashak seemed to know what He was going to ask, and said indifferently: I don't care, the most important thing now is to find Agares, and you just need to protect your father, there is no need to worry about anything else.
There was a subtle silence in the air.
Inpos and Moragos glanced at each other.
Do nothing? But this land is about to welcome an alien god of unknown size.
By then, the Oss Empire will definitely disappear from the human territory.
But what does this have to do with them?
In Persia lowered his head with a heavy expression. Perhaps being in cat form was not conducive to thinking, so he changed into human form, showing a beautiful appearance that was difficult to tell whether it was male or female. If Zeus was present, he would definitely be shocked to the point of doubting his life.
Moragos also transformed into a human, and suddenly mentioned: "The day before yesterday, I ate a human who called himself the Freedom Alliance."
Vassago had never heard of it: The Freedom League? What was that?
He slept for hundreds of years, and humans came up with new things.
In Persia sat inside the cursed prop, his demeanor was elegant, which made the entire antique shop more stylish. He said: It must be a secret society. Such secret societies often appear in human beings.
Vassago remained silent, still in his cat form, and said, "You can either handle these matters on your own or wait for Eliog Beelzebub to return. It doesn't matter what else I do, but I'm afraid that your making a big show of yourself will be out of character and attract the attention of other compatriots."
As He said this, He glanced at Moragos intently.
Moragos, who was always capable of causing trouble, tilted his head.
Vashago was telling the truth. Whether it was Eliog's attack on the archangel or Persia's destruction of the Kingdom of Light due to his rage, none of these things looked natural.
Some of our astute compatriots may have noticed the problem and may have come to observe secretly.
So they have to be low-key and not act too blatantly against their norm.
Secondly——
Vassago's eyes dimmed, and he said, "Don't do too many unnecessary things. Humans need to grow on their own. Eliorger and the others have interfered too much before."
Even Moragos understood the hidden meaning of "He".
That's true.
The gods from other worlds are invited by humans themselves, and they should be sent back by humans themselves. When humans face difficulties and lack strength, they should enhance their strength and overcome the difficulties.
They all came this way, all races and all creatures are the same.
All living things become stronger through their own will.
If you don't want to become stronger, don't want to make efforts to become stronger, and only want to rely on external forces, how can you truly become stronger?
Human beings need help because they are too weak and have been exploited at every level, even their creativity has been taken away. However, excessive help is meaningless.
Be moderate, but the right degree is the hardest to grasp.
Agares is simply too gentle and too omnipotent. He has done so much for mankind that he has become a mountain that suppresses human development.
Vashak thought this was not a good idea back then, and when he came to his senses, he saw that Agares had indeed disappeared and no longer responded to the various requests and pleas of humans. If He could understand this, how could Agares not understand it?
But he didn't expect that Agares disappeared completely after he left. No one knew where he went in the dream space and no trace of him could be found.
“…”
Vassago sensed something and lowered his eyelids, his deep green eyes dark and gloomy. "But... everything depends on father."
They are born of the Father's humanity and obey the Father's will.
After the conversation, Moragos nodded, and Inpos leaned back in his chair, thinking.
Inpos suddenly turned around and said, "But when will Eliog and Beelzebub come back?"
Vassago said calmly: "Who knows."
Moragos was curious: "Is it possible that they will continue to be lost?"
Vassago smiled. "That's hard to say."
-
The other party.
In the subspace, Eliog and Beelzebub had a big argument.
Eliorg turned around angrily, "I was a fool to come out with you."
Beelzebub glanced at Him and said, "Humph, you are stupid anyway."
Eliorg was furious: "You brought me here, so you must be responsible for taking me back!"
Beelzebub frowned, glanced at the galaxy next door, and suddenly said, "I know, I'll take you back if I can."
"Oh, you know the consequences if you can't go back."
Eliog's eyes were cold.
A few minutes later, an angry voice resounded throughout the star field.
"Beelzebub you're an idiot! It's only after all these years that I realize you're a directionally challenged person!"
-
That night, in the Oss Empire's General Staff Office.
"how."
"We found a den and captured some believers, but it's far from enough. There are still many of them hiding."
“And this.”
As he spoke, the intelligence agent took out a black box that was equipped with advanced magic to prevent the curse from spilling out.
Roger lowered his eyes, took the black box and opened it himself.
As the only brave warrior alive today, he has countless blessings and protections, and ordinary curses cannot affect him.
And this black box should just be a "message transmitter".
He opened it and saw that there was indeed a letter inside.
The intelligence officer's expression suddenly changed.
The letter reads:
"Brave Roger, are you sure you want to intervene in this matter?
Anyone who stands in our way will die, including God, and that includes you."
It's a warning letter.
A threat warning specifically addressed to the brave warrior Roger.
It also said at the end: "They asked for this. They went back on their word. Don't think they can escape by dying! All the people in this country must be sacrificed. Even leaving the country will be useless. All those who have anything to do with this country must be sacrificed!"
What followed was a whole series of hysterical curses.
It's creepy at first glance.
The intelligence officer at the scene took a deep breath and looked extremely ugly.
Because once this was said, it meant that as long as you were a member of the Os Empire, no matter where you fled to, you would die anyway. They still had their relatives and friends, and no one could escape.
It’s a good thing they had thought of an immigration plan, but now it’s useless. Everyone will die, and no one can escape.
The empire has never faced such a desperate crisis since its founding.
Even if the Kingdom of Light attacked the imperial city, they had ways to let the civilians leave first to avoid the destruction of the country and the extinction of the race. But this declaration was definitely to completely exterminate them.
No matter how strong their will is, it will be shaken by this threat, because they can die, but what about their family and friends?
The newborn baby didn't even live for a few days! Is the empire's mistake really so unforgivable that everyone has to pay the price?
Some people were sweating, feeling fear and anger because they were just implicated.
What did they do wrong?
If the king had not gone crazy and provoked the alien god, and reportedly robbed the alien god of a very important thing, would they have to be worried and destroyed until now?
But what's the use of thinking about these things now? Destruction is already at hand.
Some of them hoped that the eldest princess would return with knowledge and save the country.
The eldest princess is the student of Agares, so there will always be a way. If Agares can take action, the crisis of the alien gods can definitely be resolved.
But they also feel vaguely uneasy, because don't forget, the eldest princess has a god-level curse on her. The eldest princess's power is well known, and no one dares to question it. However, the power of the god-level curse is also well known. Can the eldest princess really return safely and save the empire from danger?
Roger noticed their mood changes and knew that this anxiety was inevitable.
At this time, someone couldn't help but ask Luo Jie: "Sir Brave, we took their treasures, right? Can we return them to them?"
“There is such a saying.”
Roger sighed, "But, we searched the entire Os Empire but couldn't find it. They said that the king had already used it, so we can't find something that no longer exists."
There was silence at the scene, and everyone had an ugly expression.
Luo Jie continued: "And at this point, that thing is no longer the focus of the conflict."
Just because of the offense against the divine might by going back on one's word, the alien gods will not let the Os Empire go.
If they made a mistake, it was that they did not hold the king down before he went mad and prevent the country from falling into the abyss.
And now it's no use saying anything.
A magician in the room said, "No matter what, this matter can't be concealed."
The old intelligence officer next to him said, "The military should have informed everyone."
So far, only a small number of people in the military knew about the situation. But now... it is impossible to hide it anymore.
Roger said nothing, because these were matters that the Empire should decide.
Half an hour later, Elinson found Roger and said with an unpleasant expression, "I can feel the Kingdom of God is coming."
"It's useless to eliminate any strongholds. We simply can't clear them all. The continental human alliance has withdrawn their people, leaving only the observers."
"We are at most one year away from destruction."
As she spoke, Elinson's voice trembled a little.
Luo Jie lowered his eyes and said nothing.
As a legendary hero, if he calls for help, there will always be a few strong human beings who respond, but this is tantamount to letting them die.
And the older Roger gets, the less he wants to see young people die.
Whether they are from the Ottoman Empire or from other countries.
Roger asked: "Elinson, is His Majesty's curse still okay?"
Elinson paused and replied, "Normally it's nothing."
Luo Jie: "Where's the eldest princess?"
Elinson: "Helen said the eldest princess is on her way back, but I don't know the exact time."
Roger nodded and suddenly stood up. His old eyes gleamed with a gleam of light, as if he had returned to the period of the God of Killing in an instant.
He asked, "Ellingson, do I really look old?"
Elinson was stunned and nodded.
Luo Jie smiled and turned his head and said, "No wonder you are looked down upon."
Elinson: “You…”
Luo Jie said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, even if I risk my life, I will not let the Os Empire perish."
-
the next day.
Xius got up early and found that the three cats beside the bed were sleeping soundly.
Vassago had just woken up and fallen asleep again.
Xiusi smiled and covered them with a blanket, then came out after a few minutes.
"I have to go to the Magician's Association again. Please watch the store carefully and don't touch the antiques in the store. They are very dangerous."
He walked to the front desk and his eyes met the gray cat.
"Are you asking me if I'm looking for a book on system magic?"
The gray cat nodded.
Hughes: "Yes, the one I read yesterday was too profound. I want to find one that is easy to understand."
The gray cat was silent for a moment, and then actually said that he would come to help find it too.
The red cat was shocked. If their father's system was restarted and updated, their nonsense would be ruined.
I wonder if Eliog's plan to rewrite history is going smoothly.
However, the gray cat looked at him, as if to say that his father wanted to restart the system, so should we hinder him?
“…”
Red Cat understood. No matter what, father is the top priority.
Well, this reason is indeed irresistible.
Moragos watched them leave with a somewhat complicated expression.
-
10 o'clock in the morning, in the library of the Magicians Association.
Hughes is learning magic theory from someone.
There is an old magician in the library who has made great achievements in magic theory. He is in the library every day and has almost become a legend.
His name is Oral.
At this time, Orlor drank some wine and said with a smile: "The essence of magic is imagination? Yes, that's right, it's true in the initial stage."
Hughes listened attentively and took notes while listening. The gray cat sat beside him, staring at what he wrote in his notes.
Orlore continued: "Only when you have imagination in your heart can you visualize it. But what kind of imagination is good imagination?"
“What determines whether an imagination is good or bad?”
“…”
Hughes was stumped. This was indeed a problem.
He then thought, good imagination...means the kind of imagination that is rich, colorful, unique and creative?
But magic is not painting.
And the next second, Olore revealed: "In most cases, well-structured imagination is good imagination."
Hughes paused, "Good structure?"
Orlore said, "Using a house as an analogy, a well-built house can be lived in for a long time, right?"
Hughes nodded.
Orlore continued, "No matter how good the materials are, a house with structural problems won't last long, right?"
Xius nodded again, his eyes showing surprise.
Orlore smiled and said, "Material is magic, and structure is the architecture of the house. Only by organizing the magic well can we build a good house."
Zeus seemed to understand, but also felt like he had opened the door to a new world.
This knowledge is actually written in books, but the feeling of reading it in a book is different from listening to someone explain it.
He suddenly understood.
Magic is an imagination based on a worldview. It is the art of imagination and the art of structure.
Chaotic imagination cannot organize magic. Only orderly and structured imagination can organize magic well and help you cast stable magic.
"I think I understand."
As Zeus flipped through the book and studied, he suddenly discovered that the magic book was full of various structures.
Three stars, four stars, five stars, and so on, various geometric structures can be seen everywhere.
He should have noticed these, but he didn't realize it until now when he suddenly realized it and seemed to see the true face of magic.
Orlor seemed to admire his understanding and said with a smile, "So, learning magic is boring. You have to draw magic circles every day and remember the graphic structure of these magic circles firmly in your mind. Even if a line segment is crooked, it may cause the magic to fail."
Hughes: "It sounds like memory is important."
This may be to his disadvantage, as his memory is not too strong.
Olore: "Haha, that's usually the case. There is another situation where some people have a poor memory but a strong ability to understand and learn quickly."
Hughes understood again, "Understanding is the key to memory."
If you can't understand it, no matter how much you remember, it may be of no help.
I remember it was like this when I was learning mathematics. One formula can lead to countless types of questions. If you can't learn the formula and understand how to solve the formula, it's useless to memorize more types of questions.
As he spoke, Orlor said regretfully: "Do you know how much magic reserves the Os Empire has publicly disclosed?"
Hughes remembered a little and replied, "Three thousand four hundred and eighty-one?"
Olore: "That's right, including the hidden ones, it's about the same number."
"Most of these were passed down from ancient times, some were seized from the warp by our Oss Empire, and a small part was discovered by our own research."
At this point, Orlor's face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "We magicians find that new magic is too difficult. When we think about it, our brains become chaotic."
"How sad, humans cannot possess such natural abilities."
It's as if all of humanity has been cursed with stupidity.
As soon as he finished speaking, the gray cat raised its head, as if it was concerned.
Xiu Si was silent, and suddenly said: "It will definitely change, and everything that is supposed to happen will happen."
Orlore was stunned, perhaps because of the alcohol, but he seemed a little dazed.
He had lived a long life, but this was the first time he heard someone so sure about something without sounding arrogant at all.
It’s amazing, is it because of this person’s inherent gentle temperament?
You feel that any words spoken from his mouth will be much more comfortable, and you will not have any disgust and inexplicably want to trust him.
Aolor looked into those dark eyes and couldn't help but ask, "Really?"
Xiu Si nodded and smiled faintly, "You have to believe it, right? Could the humans in the Age of Gods have imagined that eight thousand years later, the continent would usher in the Age of Humans? Change always happens step by step. I believe that we can eventually get back what we deserve."
Behind the calm tone lies a determined heart and tenacious humanity.
For some reason, Orlore was suddenly shocked and his heartbeat quickened, as if he really had envisioned a bright future.
He thought about it, and his mood improved. He said to Xiu Si: "Haha, you are incredible. I think I understand why Master Matros chose you as his student."
As he spoke, the gray cat stiffened for a moment.
Xius said, "Let's not talk about these distant ideals. I'd better put them into practice. I've been busy studying theory these days and don't know what it will be like in practice."
Orlore smiled and said, "Come, follow me. I'll take you to the practice room."
"good."
They then walked out of the library, receiving many surprised looks from magicians along the way.
"Oh my god, Teacher Orol actually walked out of the library."
"Incredible, he brought along the students of Grand Master Matros!"
"Where are they going? An open practice room? Do you want to go and see? I'm going anyway."
So, a few minutes later, many curious magicians came to the public magic practice room where only a few people were originally there.
They used the excuse that they wanted to practice magic, but in fact their eyes were on the next door, wanting to know what was going on in Oror.
What was so extraordinary about the young man named Zeus? After gaining recognition from Grand Master Matros, he even conquered the most harsh and venomous Master Oror.
I saw Orlol giving the young man a few instructions.
The young man nodded, then walked to the place to practice magic firing, slowly raised one hand, with a gray cat beside him.
This is the first time they see Zeus using magic. What will happen?
Zeus might be more nervous than them. After all, he had never tried to use magic formally.
Aolor next to him smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, any magic will do. Why don't you try light magic?"
Xius nodded, took a deep breath, and his mood quickly stabilized. He was extremely focused and stared at the target several hundred meters away.
Magic power gathered in the palm of his hand, and a complete structure gradually took shape.
Everyone opened their eyes wide, wanting to witness the next second.
In just a moment, a blazing white light flashed in front of the young man's palm, dimming the entire space.
Then, magic exploded in an instant, not only destroying the target, but also penetrating the magic defense of the practice room.
Everyone was stunned on the spot.
Oral was dumbfounded.
What on earth is this?!
