Chapter 252 Shocking Secret (Part 1)
"The reason why Loki can join the race for the throne is because of the help of His Highness Simora!" Looking at the shocked Loki, Imir laughed, "Loki, don't you think it's strange? It has been more than 20 years since your father was executed and your mother was imprisoned. Not to mention meeting His Highness Simora, not even a little news has been heard. Do you know what kind of life she has lived in the past 20 years?"
Imir said slowly, and Loki's face slowly turned blue.
Imir's expression gradually became serious: "But, perhaps, His Highness Simora was not imprisoned in the beginning..."
"Shut up!"
Loki was furious and rushed forward, but was beaten back and fell against the wall in an instant.
As luck would have it, he bumped into Richard.
Ymir squinted his eyes and said, "Oh~ there's another person? You're so well hidden that I didn't even notice you. You must be Richard."
"Tsk tsk, how unfortunate." Richard came out of stealth mode, patted the dust off his body, looked up at Ymir and continued, "I wanted to continue listening to your secrets."
Ymir said, "It's a pity that I don't want to continue."
"Brother Ymir, I know you know a lot of things. After we catch you, we will slowly ask you!" Rocky propped up his axe and climbed up, "But now, please see my progress!"
Rocky held up his axe. Rescuing his mother has always been Rocky's goal, but now Rocky doesn't just want this. In addition to the revenge he had wanted after years of suffering, he also wanted to become the demon king of two continents, even if it was only in name.
Taking a deep breath, Rocky rushed forward.
Diluka wanted to stop him, but Richard stopped her. Richard wanted to see how many secrets Ymir had, such as the altar at the back. There was a faint magic on the altar. Was it a summoning array or something else?
Unlike Richard's curiosity, Diluka injected divine power into the Nibelungen. Freya glanced at Diluka and put her fingers on the bowstring.
"Ymir!" Rocky's axe chopped at Ymir.
Ymir raised his wand and released the magic power. The wand turned red and hot.
"Gin Engab, burn the enemy..."
Pillars of fire gushed out from the cracks under Ymir's feet, and Rocky was forced to retreat. As he retreated, more pillars of fire appeared around Ymir, and he was ready for defense and attack.
"Haha, Rocky, which one is more powerful, your flame or mine?"
Rocky snorted, and a blue flame rose from his axe and spear, looking up.
Richard raised his eyebrows: "Huh? How does this magic flow?"
What surprised Richard was the magic in Ymir's body. The way his magic flowed was different from that of any person who used magic that Richard had seen.
"This flame is so powerful." Diluka came closer, and Rocky tried to attack several times, but it was completely ineffective. Ymir blocked Rocky every time he raised his hand.
Richard shook his head: "It's just so-so. I'm more curious about his magic than his flames."
Ymir laughed: "Rocky, it seems you haven't made any progress. Hey, Richard over there, aren't you guys coming over? If not, I'll leave!"
Four new fires ignited in Ymir's hands, changing into the shape of poisonous snakes, and quickly attacked Richard and others along the ground. Richard waved his hand, and three shadow fire snakes flew out and ate Ymir's three poisonous snakes. As for Rocky, Richard was not interested.
Ymir narrowed his eyes. Still motionless? Then I'll kill Rocky first! Ymir's second attack followed closely, and Rocky used his axe gun to resist hard.
"Too fast, the flames are too fast... and the magic capacity is too high!" Rocky was shocked while blocking. Because Rocky was close, he noticed the abnormal magic in Ymir's body. This capacity is simply not something that one person can hold!
"Oh~Did you find it?" Ymir tilted his head and saw Rocky's slightly shocked expression.
While Ymir didn't continue to attack, Rocky quickly stepped back a few steps.
Ymir smiled and said, "Since you have discovered it, it's okay to tell you. This is specially prepared for the goddesses and the unknown Richard. The Doomsday Cult also serves this purpose. The power of the goddess comes from the believers, but the meaning of his existence is not just to weaken the power of the goddess..."
Rocky immediately understood what Ymir said, "This magic power... is absorbed from the power of the believers!"
"Rocky is really smart."
Ymir clapped his hands, and the flames burned violently and spread.
"Rocky, you answered very well. The faith of these humans gave me strength. Although each of these humble humans can only provide a tiny bit of strength, multiplying these weak powers by tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands can produce huge magic power. The power of countless believers is now condensed in this magic wand. I have the infinite magic power of Jin Engab, and my power is endless!"
Richard glanced at Rocky, then turned to look at Diluka. Richard has now basically figured out the source of the power. Just like the source of Ymir's magic power, it is obtained from believers. Of course, the method used to collect the power is still unknown. Ymir's method is not bad. His goal is to seize the source of the goddess' power for his own use. And it seems that Ymir has successfully gathered a considerable amount of objective energy in a short period of time, and Richard also has a religion in his hands, and it seems that he can also use a similar method to obtain energy.
Rocky panted and asked: "How complicated magic spells are needed to replace the believers' faith with magic power!"
"No, no, no." Ymir shook his fingers and smiled, "Rocky, I didn't do anything special. I don't need to go through any spells. People ask me for something, and then that heart will become my strength. Although humans are small and humble, they are also precious resources. They cannot be wasted and must be used flexibly."
Diluka's hands trembled a little: "How...how could this be, wouldn't this be..."
Ymir stared at Diluka and said, "Isn't this the same as a goddess?"
Diluka was speechless for a moment, and Richard looked at her and then retracted his gaze.
"Haha, that's it. The demons, like the goddesses, feed on human hearts to gain power, but they just have different preferences. Don't you know that?"
Imir smiled sinisterly, as if he saw through Richard and the others.
Richard was also curious about the source of the demons' power, but he didn't understand it. Now it seems that the power of the demons and the power of the gods are based on the same principle...
