"Your Highness, you have a good reputation! Compared to the time when your mother was the Greek god Ananke, I can only be regarded as a small thing here. ”
Li Mochen shook his head and glanced at the sky above the top of the tower: "I think the vast majority of the power of fate you sensed comes from this 'Longinus Holy Spear'. In addition, I would like to thank Her Highness the Goddess, who has also benefited me greatly from the 'Book of Destiny' that you have gifted. ”
The price paid by the goddess of magic when she made a covenant with him was the goddess's perception of 'fate'.
Although Hekat is only the goddess of opportunity, she is the daughter of Nyx, and she received a lot of gifts from her mother on the day she was born. Later, this man who has been based on 'opportunity' for thousands of years will inevitably come across the same and see other fates.
Just five years ago, Diana gave him all her knowledge of 'destiny' in a bizarre book.
The price is that Li Mochen and the Wildenstein family will fully support the goddess to build a 'magic network' one day in the future—that is, to deprive the authority to cast spells from all spell-casting professions, and force all people and creatures to cast spells through the 'magic network'. And with the power of this network, it is forbidden to use powerful forbidden arts and divine power in the main material realm.
Of course, Diana paid much more than that, in addition to the 'Book of Destiny', this one also took out a lot of extras, full of sincerity.
Li Mochen also readily agreed, this is something that can benefit all sentient beings, although it will suppress the extraordinary power of this world. However, correspondingly, the 'Biochemical Breeding Suit' produced by the Rising Sun Group and the series of 'Magic Armor' of Light and Magic Industry will have a more important position in the military and the magic energy professional world.
In addition, considering that this bright world will become his most important source of faith in the future, Li Mochen must ensure the safety of all beings in this world, the believers in this world, in the vast majority of circumstances.
In the final analysis, for Li Mochen, who was about to leave the Light World as a god, the level of magical power in the main material world actually didn't matter.
Li Mochen also felt that the force of this world was echoing what Diana was doing, and for this world, it was tantamount to the merit of Nuwa in the oriental legend to mend the sky.
Li Mochen thought that it was necessary for him to intervene, which could allow the 'Shenxiao Spiritual Fortune Purple Gold Pagoda' to accumulate more merit and aura.
Although in the past seven years, the colorful aura that has lingered on this pagoda has still accumulated nearly 200,000 wisps under the condition that he has used a lot of research and perception of the power of fate, the roots of the world, the truth of nature, and the refining of mythological equipment, Li Mochen still feels hungry and thirsty, thinking that this savings is far from enough.
There was no doubt about the power of the 'Shenxiao Spirit Fortune Purple Gold Tower', and as Li Mochen's understanding of the power of fate continued to improve, he also felt more and more that this artifact was unfathomable.
Li Mochen even suspected that there was probably a truth-level theocracy of 'fate' and 'timing' in this pagoda.
But even so, if he wanted to use the power of this 'Divine Spirit Fortune Purple Gold Tower' to kill an Angel King, he still needed a lot of merit as a foundation.
"It's only from the 'Longinus Holy Lance'? But what I sensed was more than that, Your Highness Little Wildenstein, did you underestimate my strength as a master god, or did you doubt my insight as the daughter of Nyx?"
Diana laughed, her eyes solemn: "I am here, and I feel the power of fate that surpasses my mother's. So, I guess my gift is very small to you. ”
She already understood why Li Mochen stubbornly chose 'fate' as the core of his avenue. With such a superb talent, no matter how ridiculous and difficult his choice seems to others, it can hardly be said to be 'conceited'.
Li Mochen didn't say anything more, it would be a bit hypocritical to continue to say anything modest, and this set is not popular in the West. In terms of fate, he does now have a self-confidence that surpasses Ananke.
If this ancient goddess of fate is indeed as rumored, even in her prime, she was only a medium godhead—
"As you can see, this is the half-plane of the Magic Tower of the Land of Destiny, and those dragons I recently brought in, and they seem to like it here. ”
Diana had long noticed that there were twenty-four dragons active in this half-plane, all of them adult dragons at the demigod level, both metal dragons and color dragons. They have placed the Dragon's Lair here, and the vast majority of them are asleep. There are only a few of them, roaming between the planes and the astral planes.
This half-plane with a diameter of 40 kilometers cannot provide them with space to fly freely, but in the infinite void, there is still a place for them to stretch their muscles and bones every day.
Diana was thoughtful: "It seems that Your Highness has completed the forbidden spell in the realm of life and death, right?
Diana was well aware of their state, and the lives of the twenty-four dragons had clearly come to an end. It's just that their life force has been bound to this 'Land of Destiny' magic tower.
- As long as this 'Land of Destiny' magic tower is not destroyed, these dragons will live forever unless they are killed directly, which is one of the effects of 'Life Constancy' and 'Death Forbidden'.
These two forbidden spells are actually more used by mages to act on themselves, making them almost immortal in battle. But in addition to this, they can also be used to recruit the powerful to work. Through the power of the latter, it can also cause large-scale damage, so it is also recognized as a 'forbidden spell' by the Magic Association!
It's a terrifying spell with almost unlimited potential. Those twenty-four dragons have accumulated thousands of years, and if they don't die in the future, then sooner or later they will become ancient dragons, or even primeval dragons.
However, 'constancy of life' and 'forbidden death' are also the most difficult forbidden mantras to practice. This is a spell from the Outlands, and no magician in the Bright World has yet been able to master it.
"It should be said to be both!"
Li Mochen had a look of regret on his face: "It's a pity that these two forbidden spells can only work on demigods at present, and there are also restrictions on the number." ”
The specific number depends on the number of layers of the magic tower, whether it is constant life or death forbidden, there are currently only twenty-four places.
"So, the rest are mages, right? Speaking of which, I felt strange before. Your magic tower seems to have been running at its best, to the best it can be. ”
Diana's voice was very complicated, she almost lost her temper, and couldn't help but want to complain about Li Mochen. Forty-eight demigods can't satisfy this guy? Even the America government, the demigod powerhouses directly controlled by it, are not much more than this number.
It's no wonder that the Rising Sun-Light & Magic alliance has been increasingly ignoring the American government lately.
Just a while ago, Diana had communicated with Lady Liberty. She could feel that even the woman who liked to fan the flames, who was happy to see the strife in the world, and who was happy to see the attack on the Church of Light, now showed a little regret.
"It's pretty much the same, but demigod mages are relatively rare in this world, and it's overkill to use them here. So I recruited some extra casters from the Abyss and Hell, and even the Outlands. Their abilities are only below the mage. ”
Li Mochen said as he waved his mana to make the door of this magic tower open: "I have to say sorry, Your Highness Diana, this magic tower, I can only open it for you at most below the eighth floor." The above part touches on my core secret. ”
"Understandable—"
At this time, Diana's attention was on the edge of this half-plane.
Around the magic tower of the 'Land of Destiny', it can be said that at this time, it can be said that it is surrounded by stars. She saw Lafat de Robespierre's 'Scepter of Destruction', Consely Wildenstein's 'Crown of Silence', Jennifer Wildenstein's newly created 'Conservation of Energy', the Void Dragon's Lair of 'Evette the Ancient Shadow Dragon', the Timeboat of the 'Ancient Giant Bartram', and the Ancient Magician, the 'Universal Matter' of the magic tower of 'Paracelsus'.
Diana said in her heart Sure enough, this magician, who had the title of 'First Essence' and was not inferior to Estadine's strength in his peak era, still couldn't resist the temptation of life after all.
Although the "resurrection power" of the 'Longinus Holy Lance' is miraculous, the conditions are also quite harsh, and the soul and body must be relatively intact. But this is not a very difficult thing for 'Paracelsus'.
In addition, Diana was still in the void and saw two blood-colored sarcophagi with special materials. The powerful blood-colored halo outside these two sarcophagi stained the small half of the void around them red.
She was not surprised by this, it had been rumored early on that the ancestors of the Bloodline, 'Lilith' and 'Cain', were severely subdued by Mr. Willtenstein Jr., who was strong enough to rival the main god, shortly after awakening.
This can be seen from the state of the blood clan in recent years, except for the demon party is still unruly, all the other clans are invariably the same, showing a posture of obedience and submission to the Wildenstein family.
In addition, the 'Blood-Eyed Angel' Robert Yvonne who has not been seen for the time being, the 'Calamity Dragon Lady' Hazel Wildenstein, the 'Void Night Monarch' Delphinia Edric, who has been promoted to a demigod, and the five Ancients of the Blood Clan - this is the Wildenstein family, or the Divine Domain combat power that Li Mochen himself currently masters!
It is precisely this powerful force, which can be called a powerful force even in the eyes of the Holy See of Light, that the Wildenstein family has been able to force the Holy See to swallow the bitter fruit of the seizure of the 'Longinus Holy Lance', and they have not dared to carry out a frontal counterattack so far.
"This is the first level, and as you can see, there are eight directions here. There are eight magic pools. On the left is a construction and maintenance workshop, on the right is a basic library, and on the opposite side is a large dormitory and living area, which can accommodate about 100 magic apprentices. Of course, I don't have the idea of taking in an apprentice myself, it's destined to be vacant—"
Li Mochen walked up the stairs while introducing Diana.
The latter's attention remains elsewhere. She was more concerned about the magic energy protection array here, which was typical of Estantiine's style, gorgeous and magnificent, delicate and tight, and the whole was full of the beauty of the Baroque era.
But it's not all from Estadine, Diana, the god of magic. It can be seen that about 60% of the magic patterns are made by other people. Part of it is logical, but it's a little immature, cumbersome, and not refined enough, and most of it comes from the magician in front of her who is known as the 'Master of Destiny'.
However, their overall combination is very harmonious, harmonious, and logically tight, without any flaws. Thanks to the eight magic pools on this layer, the power of this layer of magic protection arrays has reached, or even surpassed, the level of resisting forbidden spells, and it is estimated that it is slightly stronger than the medium divine power 'guardian' effect she currently masters.
The problem is that Li Mochen is also an existence that also holds various protective concepts. Once you ascend to the god throne, as the 'God of War', you can rule over all kinds of offensive and defensive divine powers, which can further enhance their effects.
And those enemies who attack this magic tower will face a protective array, and the effects of 'solidity', 'unbreakable', 'anti-demon', 'eternal', 'unyielding', 'defensive' and other divine powers.
And then sitting in this magic tower is a 'Purgatory Demon Servant' from hell.
This is a powerful demon in hell, and the tribe is composed of either extremely powerful warriors or powerful mages, who have never formed a single force in hell, and most of them are in the form of close attendants, filling the courts of all levels of hell lords and even kings. Because they far surpass the 'loyalty' of other types of demons, they are very popular with the Lords of Hell. And a demigod-level 'Purgatory Demon Attendant' is often the first choice for the close attendant and the leader of the Praetorian Guard.
Is such a powerful and reliable being only used to guard the first floor of this magic tower?
"That's all it takes, Your Highness Willtenstein. ”
Diana stopped Li Mochen, who had already stepped up the steps: "I can probably guess the situation above." ”
Dongfang has a glimpse of the whole leopard, for her, the goddess of magic, the moment she enters this magic tower, she can already guess the structure of this tower four or five percent.
But if Li Mochen didn't plan to open the structure of more than eight floors to her, then if they continued to go up, Diana would not see more.
In addition, Diana still knows some reasons to avoid suspicion. The Magic Tower is the foundation of the mages on their way to the roots, to the truth, and here they hide their most central secrets.
If they are not extremely close, they will generally not allow others to enter the core of the magic tower.
Diana's only regret is that she has not been able to see Li Mochen's 'Scarlet Dragon Armor', and she has no way to know if there are any new changes in this mythical weapon?
However, Diana did not force it, she knew that her ally still had a certain amount of defense against herself, which was understandably defensive.
"Your Highness Wildenstein, my next actions may be a bit presumptuous, but I ask you to be extremely confident that I have no malicious intent. This can be regarded as a congratulatory gift for the completion of His Highness's magic tower—"
With this move, Diana's figure suddenly began to change, manifesting three bodies to carry her back.
All three figures have different faces, and their breaths and powers are all different, representing her three phases - the goddess of opportunity, the goddess of magic, and the goddess of ghosts and hell.
At this time, the 'three' gods each held two mythical weapons, which were two magic staff made of red and blue 'divine crystals', as well as a string of orb necklaces, a rope, a half-handed sword, and a mace.
Her majestic appearance exudes immeasurable magical aura and divine power, filling the interior of this magic tower. Unintelligible words came out of his mouth, migrating the power of the roots of this world, causing the surrounding magical energy to ripple and stir.
Li Mochen's eyes first froze slightly, and instinctively flashed a hint of defensiveness. But then he let down his vigilance and looked at this scene calmly.
About three minutes later, when Diana put away the radiance of her divine power, the three phases of herself became one. Li Mochen was full of gratitude and bowed to this person.
"I didn't expect Her Royal Highness Diana to give such a divine grace, I am grateful!"
At this moment, there was an additional mysterious power in all the magic pattern arrays inside this 'Land of Destiny' magic tower. This makes all the array structures inside the tower stronger, smoother, and more powerful!
- It was the 'magic blessing' of Diana, the goddess of magic, a manifestation of the divine power of magic. It can be understood as a theocratic version of constant magic, and Diana has already paid a lot of divine power to it.
"No thanks, Your Highness Little Willtenstein. ”
Diana smiled and stretched out her hand to pick Li Mochen up: "As your ally, I'm sorry I can't directly participate in this possible battle, but that doesn't mean I can't do my best for you." In addition to this blessing, I, as a goddess of magic, mystery, and truth, promise you and your men that all the spells and divine powers will be used to their fullest effect in this battle. ”
Then her figure turned into a ray of spiritual light: "Finally, I wish you, Your Highness Little Wildenstein, I look forward to the time when I can truly call you 'Your Highness'." ”
※※※※
"Is Her Highness the Goddess reliable? I'm a little worried—"
After Diana left, Hazel's figure appeared at Li Mochen's side.
She had been on the top floor of the magic tower, peering down there, and only then did she show up.
And if anyone who is familiar with Hazel is here at this moment, they will find that this girl is completely different from the image she usually shows in the eyes of outsiders.
In Li Mochen's magic tower, her eyes were red and blue, exuding a streamer full of strange charm. At the shoulder blades behind her back. It is a pair of red and golden wings, and it is in this magic tower, wantonly venting the power of ice and fire.
- They were roughly balanced, but Hazel was clearly not able to reconcile them perfectly. I have to use this method to reduce the pressure inside the body.
But the most amazing thing is that under the girl's feet, a golden flame is burning at this time. Although there was no temperature, it caused the surrounding void to constantly expand or contract—it was the fire of divine power, a purity far beyond faith and law.
"This magical blessing does have the potential to be a double-edged sword. ”
Li Mochen knew what Hazel was worried about, if Diana had bad intentions, then the divine 'blessing' that permeated the magic tower would likely become the fulcrum for Diana to attack this mage tower.
"It's not like the Goddess of Magic can't be bought by our enemies, but there's no need to worry too much. She has a good track record of credibility and has never betrayed an ally. And if this one is smart enough, she will understand that she can't find a better ally than me at the moment. ”
In this regard, Li Mochen is still very confident.
After all, Diana's 'magic network' is built within the light world, and in the case of Diana herself, as well as those high-ranking gods who cannot come in their true bodies for various reasons, he has the combat power of the main god, and he is undoubtedly a force that is enough to decide the victory or defeat.
In addition, a large part of Diana's magical network covering America and the oceans relies on the twelve communications satellites currently launched by the Rising Sun Telephone Network, as well as fiber optic fibers and signal base stations deployed throughout the country and under the sea.
Once Diana decides to turn her back on the alliance with him, the time for the perfection of the 'magic network' will be postponed for at least two to three years.
In the case that those 'god kings' have begun to return to this world, this is a price that Diana cannot afford.
"I thought so too. ”
Hazel said curiously: "But this woman has great ambitions, if she completes the magic network, will she become a new god king?"
"Yes! but only in this world. Of course, this also helps her to understand the mysteries of magic and mystery. ”
Li Mochen already has a deeper understanding of the world of gods.
I know that whether it is a god of belief or a god of law, he has the qualifications to advance to the rank of 'god king' in the light world. But their achievements are accomplished by relying on this world, and they cannot use the power obtained from the beliefs and laws of this world to the outer realms.
Only those who become gods in the body of an ancient god, that is, in the flesh, can be free from the limitations and constraints of the realm. Most of their worlds in the astral realm were able to exert their strength relatively completely.
However, it is very difficult to reach the realm of the god-king in the flesh, and it requires at least one divine right to reach the true 'truth' level—that is, the level above the 'high', 'ultimate' and 'false truth'.
According to this standard, Li Mochen was also able to get a glimpse of the truth of those 'Outland God Kings'. It is estimated that only one or two people have truly reached the realm of God King, and most of the rest have the strength of God King with the help of the power of this bright world itself.
Even Nix, if he is out of the light world, it is expected that he will only have the strength of a quasi-god king. Now, the goddess of the night is focusing on spreading her faith in the Outlands, and like other Outland God Kings, she intends to use her beliefs and laws in various realms to study the truth of the night.
In addition, the legendary supreme god position can only be achieved by the so-called 'ancient gods' in the West, the so-called 'flesh Buddha' in the body, and the so-called 'immortals' in the East. It was one of the three thousand avenues that had taken it to the extreme.
"That's also powerful, she's also an ancient god after all, and this will be a Lady Liberty or Nyx, the goddess of the night—"
Hazel sighed softly, with a slight reverie in her eyes: "I don't know what the truth-level theocratic power looks like? I don't know when I will be able to see the root of this world like her." ”
She was already on the path of the gods, so she deeply realized how far she was from the goddess of magic.
The girl has always been full of desire for power, and the essence and truth of the world that have gradually revealed in front of her have made her curious and longing.
After Li Mochen heard this, he couldn't help but laugh, and then knocked Hazard on the head hard: "Thinking too much, little girl! Before fantasizing about this, please control your own strength before you say OK? Didn't you let you retreat? Why did you run out?"
"As you said, the path of cultivation is relaxed, and there is no need to be too tight. And—"
Hazel replied with a straight face, while looking at the void with a cold gaze: "Brother, you're ready to be promoted, right? So many people are staring at you, how can I stand idly by?"
"But I can't rest assured that you're like this. ”
Li Mochen sighed, and explained with a slightly helpless expression: "If Hazel you have to fight, it's not impossible, but you have to act with Robert and keep a distance of ten kilometers, can you do it?"
Hazel mastered the 'Ice Divine Power' and the 'Silent Divine Power' three years ago, and her talent and comprehension are extremely outstanding, and with the teachings of famous teachers like Li Mochen and Kang Xiuli, she has made extremely rapid progress in these two divine powers.
This is also related to Li Mochen's seedling pulling, and he has used the wishing technique more than once to help Hai Rouer participate in the study of the ice system. This allowed her to temporarily balance the strength in her body and also be able to enter the ancient god rank.
The latter is relatively simple compared to the law and belief in God, as long as the 'strength' reaches the standard.
This condition is difficult for many people, but it is not a problem for Hazel at all, dragons are already known for their strength and natural spells, and Hazel, who has both blue dragon and red dragon blood, can easily step on that line with the help of the "Duality Mystery Dafa".
However, after entering the ancient god stage, after the power of ice and fire in Hazel's body was sublimated, he once again encountered an imbalance. Her grasp and cognition of the power of ice and silence are relatively stable and perfect. However, in terms of 'fire', 'disaster' and 'bad luck', it shows its shortcomings. At present, we are working hard to make up for the shortcomings in this regard.
So this time, Li Mochen really didn't plan to let her participate. After all, in the case of its own flaws, Hazel is likely to be taken advantage of by other strong people.
In particular, the king of the abyss named 'Morphiotus' among the enemies, this one is best at exploiting the various weaknesses and flaws of the enemy, and one of the most powerful divine powers of this person is 'contradictions' and 'loopholes'.
And those mages must also be vigilant. Under the right conditions, these demigods and legendary mages often overstep the ranks to kill the gods.
And the 'Blood-Eyed Maid' Robert, her strength attribute is relatively single, but because of this, she has polished her divinity and divine power to a more perfect level, and has even pushed the 'Wind Divine Power' and 'Battle Wind' to a medium level in the past seven years. In addition, he also wields the powerful mythical weapons of the enhanced 'Aeol's Fang' and 'The Skull of Itsumna'.
Although Robert's achievement is only the law god. But among all his subordinates at present, this blood-eyed maid is already a well-deserved number one in combat power.
With Robert's care, Hazel's safety is guaranteed enough.
And after forcing the unwilling Hazard with his gaze to nod slightly, Li Mochen's figure flickered again. He went straight to the top of the magic tower, under the dome that reflected the astral plane.
At this time, with Li Mochen's thoughts, the projection of a girl began to appear next to him - it was Angela who was far away in Manhattan, and at the moment of the projection, the girl who was practicing spells over there wanted to project her smart gaze.
"Amo, this is about to start, right?"
"I'm going to be half a day early, it's now. ”
As Li Mochen spoke, he looked at the top of the dome: "Not long ago, I sensed some unfavorable changes from the starry sky. So Angel, you have to be ready to deal with whatever might happen over there on your own. Of course, Angel, you can also choose to give up and return to me. I think I still have a way to stop Michelle's attempt. ”
"It's going to cause massive casualties, right? Maybe more than a million people. ”
Angela sighed, and there was an unparalleled determination in her pretty eyebrows: "Don't worry, okay? Amo, I won't be your weakness! This is the meaning of my full pursuit of strength for seven years." Besides, in Manhattan, I still have your allies to turn to. Anthony, he is already a powerful mechanical god. ”
"Then be careful, Angel!"
Li Mochen didn't persuade him again, he had already made enough preparations. The purpose of this newsletter is just to remind you.
"Your enemies are not only the Dragon Witch Cult and your father, but also the seven angel kings!"
After ending the communication with Angela, Li Mochen then added another communication request. That was Kang Xiuli - since Li Mochen built the Destiny Land Magic Tower to the twelfth floor, his grandfather could no longer bypass the magic energy array of the magic tower, and directly put the magic projection into it without his permission, and he could no longer peek into the situation inside the tower.
"I sensed your magic tower, it's already in combat mode, is this about to begin?"
Kang Xiuli's face is younger than seven years ago, and at this time, there is a strong expectation in his eyes.
"Half an hour at most!"
Li Mochen responded calmly: "It is expected that the probability of a battle happening is extremely low, and the 'Longinus Holy Spear' and the 'Land of Destiny' are enough to deter any main god." But if they decide to take the risk—"
"Until you have the strength to spare, I'll take over the battle. ”
Kang Xiuli caught Li Mochen's words, and at the same time, his voice changed: "So according to your judgment, those powerful beings who are watching you are more interested in containment? At present, the most likely person to fight is actually Angela's side? She still decided to go her own way? I have to say that that girl is now your biggest weakness." I regret it now, the Michelle Group has helped you less than I thought. ”
"Is it necessary to say so utilitarian, old man?"
Li Mochen looked at this one with a cold expression: "Don't underestimate Angela, now she is stronger and stronger than you think." If my enemies thought she would be my weakness, then I think Angela would break their minions. So, don't let me hear that, old man! you've made me have some bad memories. ”
"Oh?"
Kang Xiuli was a little surprised, he looked at Li Mochen carefully, and found that the latter's expression was serious, not at all like after joking, but instead of being angry, the corners of his lips were slightly raised: "Then I look forward to it! If she can do what you expect, I will apologize to her." But if she can't, I'll watch her die in Manhattan, and I'll do my best to prevent your men from coming to the rescue. Andrei, you are destined to sit on the throne of the Lord God or even the God-King in the future. And your spouse, your queen. She-"
Li Mochen could probably guess what Kang Xiuli wanted to say next, but he didn't bother to listen to it anymore, so he directly ended this magic communication. If the old man thought that he could interfere with his arrangement for Angela, he was thinking too much.
Then, in the starlight shining from the dome, Li Mochen gradually sank his divine will into his body, and like a mirror, it reflected the entire void around him, and even the root of the world.
At this moment, the qi and blood, source power, true yuan, and mana in Li Mochen's body were all boiling. They were mixed together under the guidance of Li Mochen's will and began to condense into one.
This is the last step of the dualistic Xuanhua Dafa, and the threshold of the ancient gods, Li Mochen has already crossed it with one foot.
