The final chapter(1/2)
.The continuous vibration of the uneven surface and the lack of an ancient pillar supporting weight: the temple that was tested could not bear the darkness collapsed, and Victor and Klein had to teleport away. When they came outside the temple, they were shocked to find that the attack the priest mentioned actually came from a dragon.
Victor recognized it, Crossian, the golden dragon that shone even in the dark, was Alberrecht's mount. Because of the collapse of the underground cave, a large number of dark elves fled from the city with hundreds of years of history. This is why the temple was strange but there was no patrol team to check it out.
Kara, who left the temple, was still covered in dark mist like a soul. She raised her hand slightly, and a quick lightning rushed towards the golden dragon that was still destroying the city. Then, a dragon roar filled with pain resounded through the underground cave.
A golden dragon with a big hole in his back rolled in the building complex, and the enclave disappeared into a golden light.
Victor immediately recognized this as a unique instant teleportation by Crosian, and immediately thought that the golden dragon must have gone to find Alberecit. However, what surprised Victor was why Alberecit only sent Krosian to go deeper. Once the seal that restricted the dark camp was untied, even an adult ancient dragon could not win under the siege of the high-level abyss demon. Furthermore, even if Alberecit did not know that there was a seal after darkness here, he should sense the extraordinary huge magic power underground, which was not something that ordinary creatures could possess.
The lich eyes, who could not find the answer, looked up at the top of the cave. When the golden dragon penetrated deep into the ground, it opened a huge passage enough for it to pass through. In such a deep underground, the light from the surface could be seen.
Kara, shrouded in a black mist, drifted towards the big hole leading to the surface. Seeing this, Victor and Klein hurriedly followed. The ground was much more chaotic than they thought. There were still flames burning after the dragon breath was left on the ground, and the solid stone wall was also broken into a big hole. Judging from the size, it was obviously the masterpiece of the Golden Dragon. Without the command of the dark elves, the Alfonso army, which was originally a small number, had not yet arrived at the human Allied forces behind, fled in all directions under the attack of the Golden Dragon. The huge shallow sea city people went to the city sky and could not find a few living people.
"This is over? What kind of war is this?" Looking around, there was neither the cash dragon nor any sign of remnant battle, Klein muttered dissatisfied.
"Where is the army of Celesto and Sieveg? They wouldn't have imagined that they could stop the Light coalition by sending only two voters?" asked Kara in a sarcastic manner, who had never spoken since leaving the temple.
"The Dark Clan lost six consecutive battles, and the high-level demons are tired of the law. Although you can enter the surface again because of your awakening, you can't break through the Imperial Sea for a while." Klein answered immediately because he knew that Victor had an advantage over himself. Shewig's believers were all on the ground, controlled by Victor.
"The newly recruited believers of Shivig are gathered in the wilderness not far away, and they can be summoned at any time." Victor calmly waited for Klein to finish speaking before speaking. He only needed to activate the ring notification, and the revenge believers who lurked to the North Reich in batches early in the morning could be summoned to the Sharisea City in less than half a day.
Kara fell into silence again. She turned around and stared at the south. Her dark face could not show her expression, so naturally she could not guess what she was thinking in her heart.
After Klein and Victor looked at each other, they activated their respective contact tools to gather the demons and believers who could arrive as soon as possible.
Time passed by minute by minute, and about two hours after the Golden Dragon attack, the first summoned reinforcements arrived, but they were not believers of the demon or Sivig. Kuiwu's orcs held the ancient totem, like a rushing river, and were covered in black from the direction of the frozen mountains in the northwest to head straight for the shallow sea city.
After exchanging a look again, Klein and Victor both saw surprise in each other's eyes. The goddess unknowingly summoned her loyal believers. Although the former God of Death and the Demon God were claimed to be the right-hand men after the darkness, Kara's most devout believers were not the undead or the demon, but the orcs who were ugly in appearance and considered simple-minded by all races on the ground.
Judging from the number of at least 100,000, it is worthy of being a powerful divine quilt. With its own divine power, it supports so many armies to move.
Victor secretly marveled at Kara's power in his heart. Although it is rarely used as a servant, it has also been exposed to various supporting magical techniques, so it is very clear that even as a voter, it cannot support such a large number of troops alone to move at the same time. I wonder if Kara's purpose of summoning the orc army is to join forces with Mara to eliminate the alien gods who invaded foreign countries? Or should he divide the level with Mara first?
Although there is no life perception of the undead, Klein's demonic bloodline gives him strong vision, and he senses the changes in the south first than Victor.
Victor looked in the direction of Klein's finger, and small black dots appeared one by one in the clear sky. With the special ability of the undead, he could sense that it was a large group of living bodies, and the scale was not inferior to the orcs that Kara was summoning.
"It should be the airships of the Empire and the Church, plus reinforcements from various countries in the South." The number of people sensed was a little more than when they left, and Victor believed that the conscripted teams arrived.
Calculate the time, reinforcements should not arrive in ten days. Their airships are not as luxurious as the church and the emperor who burned higher magic crystals. They are only as fast as commercial airships, which is faster than taking a sea boat. Moreover, the number of airships is limited, and the real large troops should arrive in half a month. Can they also have divine power?
As soon as the thought came to an end, Victor immediately became alert.
By the way! Why did I forget such an important thing? Lucien chose the Pope and God. If God came, it would be possible to let the large troops in the rear reach the front line in a constant manner. Isn’t Cara a ready-made example?
Thinking of this, Victor couldn't help but worry about Lucien.
Although the chosen one can allow the God without entity to descend to the middle world in a ** way, the constraints of the law are two-way, and even God cannot violate the law. Once he uses too many divine powers that cannot be sustained, the possessed one will collapse. The army of such a large scale is probably out of the range that Lucien can bear. Once God ends, he will not let it go,
"You are so obsessed with Victor. Don't forget your identity." It's not difficult to guess what Victor is thinking from his sudden change of color. Even when he is on the side of the magical weapon, Klein couldn't help but lower his voice to warn the lich who was rarely indifferent: "You are not only the opposition between the camp and identity, but also the unresolved feud. He... is Alberrecht, who destroyed the mortal enemy of Tea Song, and then he has played the role of his elder brother for eight years. How hard do you really treat him as your younger brother?"
"We are just an alliance in interests. Don't worry about it, it's not your turn to ask about my personal affairs." Victor was not willing to Klein to involve Lucien in the overall situation of enemies and hostility.
"Did I make the point? Should I call it anger and anger?" Klein's words fell, and a strong divine breath from the airship made the demon, who had always been calm, change his face suddenly.
"Hey" you can sense it." Klein was not sure whether his guess was correct. At this moment, he no longer cared about teasing Victor.
"Don't doubt it is Mara's divine power." Victor knew that Klein wanted to determine his friend. Moon doubted that the powerful divine breath coming from the direction of the airship belonged to Mara, the God of Light. He didn't know whether his possession was Lucien or Alberrecht.
If possible, Victor does not want to be the former. Whether the awakened Kara is the original deity or the god who erodes her other world, there will definitely be an inevitable conflict between her and Mara. If you fight with human bodies, the possessed object will definitely die after the god is coming, and maybe you will not be able to support the winner. But if it is Alberrecht, Victor is caught in conflict and entanglement. In addition to facing Mara, he also wants to make a conclusion with Alberrecht.
"This can explain why the human Allies, which should have arrived in two days, came to Beilu early, and it turned out that they were also relying on the power of the gods." Klein's sneer interrupted Victor's meditation: "It seems that your wish to break with Alberrecht cannot be realized."
The main ship of the Emperor** was standing. No, now it might be said that it was just a powerful spirit with a human appearance. The spirit was so dazzling that it could not be seen directly. Compared with the last time in San Vances, Mara is much stronger now. No wonder Alberrecht was originally stronger than Lucien, so he didn't know what method he used to remove the restrictions of **.
Victor sighed unconsciously as soon as he saw it. The light blue pupils were no longer as hot as before, as they used to be like flames, and his arrogant nature and his ambition were buried together. With the same eyes that looked down on all living beings, Mara possessed no longer the original agility of Alberrecht, which seemed old-fashioned and empty. Just like a sculpture enshrined in a temple, it was just a sign.
In this extremely short moment, Victor couldn't tell whether the thoughts flashed in his heart were regretful or unwilling. It wanted to use the battle between the camp before God of Mara to intervene with Alberrecht, but it did not expect that the farewell half a day ago would become eternal retribution. The soul swallowed or absorbed by the gods was equivalent to death. There was no man or soul in this world. He had been absorbed as part of Mara, without individual consciousness, nor soul, but just a simple energy.
After all, you are tired of your own ambitions. Alberrecht, if you didn’t desire to become a god so much, you might have lived for a few more years.
"I said that I should break quickly. That guy's ambition is just to be an emperor." Although he said this, Klein also understood in his heart that Victor and Alberrecht were destined to be unable to settle their grudges in eighty years. From the beginning, their goals were inconsistent, one was to become immortal, and the other wanted to destroy themselves.
"Victor, Victor, once you ask Mara and get the answer you should know when you abandon everything, your existence will be the same as Alberrecht. The most important thing about the undead is obsession. Without the desire to forget that supports the soul, a Lich King will also die out by itself. Do you really don't understand that after you betray the second time you betray the God you serve, it is not the protection of Shivig, but your own powerful thoughts. If you didn't value your obsession with Mara, Shivig might not have chosen you as his elector. If it were me, no, anyone else. Shivig would not have let you rule his believers in the middle world alone. This is the case with Ceresto. The magic crystal apostle appears to be second only to the demon god. He assumes three, which not only makes us opposite each other, but never has the possibility of cooperation."
Unfortunately, Klein's warning did not receive the attention of Victor. The most important thing for the lich was Mara's answer, not his own existence.
Without getting Victor's response, Klein turned his head and looked at the lich. Victor, who had little expression, looked at the airship with regret.
"Are you mistaken? You actually feel sorry for him? If I were you, I would have killed him when I returned to the surface, no matter how much it would cost."
"It's not a pity, but a little regret." People like him have climbed to the peak that humans can reach, but have lost everything for their unattainable goals. What later generations believe and worship are not Alberrecht who has become a god, but just a false illusion, which is by no means what he wants,"
"I don't think there is anything wrong with dreaming of becoming a god. But a guy like you who doesn't have any chance of becoming a god is a freak."
The conversation came and went to the airship. The light god Mara, possessed by Alberrecht, descended from the airship to mid-air, confronting the dark Kara spirit body in a downward posture.
"Long time no see, Kara. I really didn't expect you to have this day to escape the seal."
"I didn't expect that you could actually erode his soul, a betrayal dog from another world."
Kara's angry answer shocked Klein and Victor.
Mara was eroded? What was going on? Wasn’t Kara eroded by the gods in another world? Why did he point at Mara after the darkness and say that he was the one who was eroded?
The confrontation with Klein made it understand that it was not because of its own auditory hallucination. Kara's indeed said that Mara was eroded!
"Didn't you say that it was Carra who was eroded?" Victor pulled Klein, who was also stunned. It was not difficult to guess from his expression that he was as shocked as he was at this moment.
Kara is one of the Supreme Gods, a loyal believer in Zhili, and can fight against the camp of light without the help of any gods or races. Since she said that Mara was eroded, the only explanation is only one
Ceresto was lying. Before the catastrophe, what was eroded by the gods of another world was not after darkness, but the god king Mara, who represented light.
"It was Celesto who told me that Kara was eroded. That's why there was a catastrophe that split the continent. How did I know this would happen!"
Victor firmly believed that Klein had no need to lie about who was eroded, and he was just a piece of chess piece that Celesto monitored himself and observed the middle world by the way.
It is not difficult to guess from the rising momentum of the coalition forces that Emperor* and the people in the church thought that Albert's enthronement was successful. They did not know that the real Albert's sword existed. What they worshiped and believed in later Mara, which was covered by illusions.
Such a method can be said to be almost the same as the Dark Clan. Can such a god be considered a God of Light?
The unspeakable question ended with a sneer that suddenly appeared in my mind.
It's useless, the truth is revealed now."
Shweg?!
Feeling the palm that grabbed his wrist suddenly stiffened. Klein was about to ask, but suddenly noticed a powerful divine breath gushing out of Victor's body. He had felt this power, which belonged to the former god of death.
Does Shivig also want to come?
Klein was about to distance himself from it, but now he was in the same situation. His limbs no longer obeyed the command of his brain. He was like a bug locked in a narrow space. Although he could still see everything he had borne through his eyes, he could no longer control his body or even speak.
Like Victor, the demon Selesto directly occupied Klein's body without saying hello to his subordinates. Including Kara, there were already three magical weapons on the dark side at this moment.
Mara, who was at a disadvantage, did not change his attitude because of the sudden two extra gods. This annoyed Kara, who had escaped from the seal on the net. She raised her hand and made a lightning bolt accompanied by thunder. The black light rushed to less than three steps of Mara and was blocked by the barrier, bursting into millions of tiny lights, and then disappeared.
Even with barriers blocking, a small number of airships were still affected by the airflow. Several airships with imperial flags that were not covered by the hunchback were directly bombarded into black and gray. The Emperor who was lying on the side of the ship was so scared that his face was pale. Lucien, who had moved to the flagship, frowned and stared at the ground. Just like Victor's previous worries, he was also worried about Victor. Shivig's divine breath covered the original breath of the lich. He witnessed his grandfather being absorbed by Mara, how could Lucien not worry about Victor following in the footsteps of Alberrecht.
"Don't act so anxiously. After being blocked for hundreds of years, you no longer have the power of the past." After only glanced at the human army, which was burned to ashes by the people and boats, Mara also raised her hand. However, he did not attack directly like Kara, but instead asked the Emperor** who had been arranged early to activate the hundreds of magic cannons of the airship. All the magic cannons powered by magic crystals are all, and their power is no worse than the attack of magic weapons at all.
"No matter how bad it is, it is stronger than the wrecking dog that needs to rely on the power of mortals to support the scene." Kara did not waste much divine power after hitting the attack. The orc army summoned by her also arrived at this moment. The sound of drums and the momentum of fearless death did not take hundreds of magic cannons that could be moved at any time. Almost at the same time, the believers of the Revenge Cult whom Victor had previously summoned also arrived, and the dark elves who had previously fled out of the hole directly to the underground in Shallow Sea City were not as numerous as orcs, but the winged demons mixed in it were enough to make up for the shortage of people.
"Waste" Kara looked back at the demon who suddenly knelt on one knee. The consumption of a lot of magic made Celesto's breath weaker, and **'s control returned to Klein's hands again.
The length of time and power of the gods' advent depends entirely on the object of arrival. Alberrecht was taken away by Mara by becoming a god. Although Klein was a magic crystal apostle, he could not support Ceresto to summon the higher-level demons for a long time. Victor was in a slightly better condition. He was only in the state of soul. The so-called "** is just a form of the transformation of sacred objects. Sivig, who was staying in the sacred objects, was equivalent to directly extracting energy from the sacred objects.
The army of the dark camp gathers more and more. Many soldiers of the Human Allied Forces have not experienced such a large formation, and their aura is no longer as strong as when they arrived. Kara couldn't help but see this.
"No matter how many human troops are, they cannot compete with me. You should give up the idea of winning by quantity."
"My main force was not human from the beginning." Mara tied with her hands. The sea water at his feet churned like a boil and retreated backwards, and the moving Allied ships immediately ran aground on the exposed seabed.
Cara's anger was almost manifested as a group of skeletons and zombies emerging from the ground. Shewig, who possessed Victor, also looked very ugly, he was the real god of death.
A black skeleton even had a bone, which was particularly conspicuous in the army of undead. Victor's soul body, compressed inside the holy object, recognized it at a glance that he was his ex-boss. Paglott. The breath of death was stronger than ever before, making Victor unable to tell whether he was Paglott or Manger now.
The appearance of the undead caused an uproar and confusion among the coalition forces. People never expected that the undead who should have belonged to the dark camp would be in an alliance posture this time to fight side by side with them.
Mangel slowly took off to the sky and stood beside Mara, a pair of red soul flames staring straight at the lich behind Kara.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, Shivig. I really didn't expect you to hide in your own holy objects. No wonder I've been looking for you for hundreds of years without any results."
Victor could feel the anger of Shivig, but he didn't say anything, which really surprised Victor. Gods are not like mortals, and they are so powerful that they don't have to avoid anything at all. Just like Kara, any unhappiness will turn into a sharp attack. Why did Shivig disappear at the same time after Saint Vansessen and Mara came with God? Mara seemed normal at that time, and maintained the majesty that the God of Light should have in his believers' hearts.
The incredible truth that Mara was eroded by the same strangeness. Why can a god in another world erode Mara? Even with the same attribute, such an existence as a god should not be easily eroded. What exactly is the one that occupies Mara's power? Why can he not be noticed by other gods for hundreds of years? Are not most of them the descendants of Mara and Kara?
Since you want to know so much, I will tell you. It was also the last time that God temporarily discovered the fact that Mara was eroded."
Out of Victor's expectations, Shiweig actually answered its doubts. In the past, as long as he thought about any issues related to God, Shiweig would use severe punishment to stop it. This time, he indulged himself in thinking so much, Victor refused to let go of the opportunity. He immediately raised other doubts, hoping to get an answer.
God, what exactly is it?
This question has troubled Victor when he was still a human being. As a clan of the attendant God, it should not have such an almost blasphemous idea. After becoming a dead soul, it could not stop itself from thinking about what kind of existence God actually exists.
Even the highest two gods, including me, Ceresto cried. "The ancient gods of Ming Dynasty came from other worlds. After the destruction of the world's roots, we came here thousands of years ago and occupied the gods of Mala. The gods from another world, just like what we did in the past, if they want to choose this world as a habitat, they must swallow up the existing local gods."
Shivig's explanation completely overturned Victor's cognition.
It turns out that Gods, like humans, will fight against each other for their territory.
The so-called God is nothing more than a higher being with stronger power than humans, and is not omnipotent. After knowing the truth, do you still want to ask why Mara created the chants and let it destroy them?
No, there is no need. Yes, the real Mara has died and has been eroded by another god. Maybe it is stronger than the real Mara, or it is just luck, but no matter what, the answer I want is never known. Those who create and give up the chants are not the same god at all.
To be continued...
