The forging god, who had lost the giant hammer, staggered back two steps, and finally dragged his scarred body to the ground. Opposite him, Hetoth was holding his lightsaber and aiming it at the blackiron head of the Forge God.

At this moment, Hetos's face was not full of joy of victory, but full of confusion and doubt.

"You're not giving it your all. "Hetos was surprised that Zedrik was nowhere near as strong as Hetos remembered. Otherwise, even with Dawn's help, he wouldn't be able to win so easily.

"If it weren't for that sword, I'd be better than you. Zedrick's words were still unyielding.

"What the hell is going on?" Hetos pushed the blade of the lightsaber again.

Looking at the dazzling sword in front of him that radiated scorching heat, Zedrik finally said the answer.

"Our power is constantly flowing in the days of sealing, and God's power is not all from itself*. Both Sulu and Kasiu need to constantly absorb the faith of the people, and they also need to sacrifice with their lives. And I need to feel the heat in countless furnaces, and hear the tapping on countless iron felts. In addition, the seals placed on us have not been fully broken. ”

"Not all of them?" Hetos was a little surprised.

Seeing the Flame Giant's surprised look, Zedric pointed at Gilvin and explained, "The blood that broke the seal is not pure, that guy is not a descendant of Evans, and the other blood is not from the real one*. ”

It is true that Giving's blood comes from the blood contract, and the old goblin Harvey is only a vessel for the soul of Golfrey. If so, these partially liberated gods must be in a hurry to unleash their full power. Hearing this, Ji Wen hurriedly walked up to the forging god and asked, "Then how can you recover your full strength?" ”

"Evans and Gaufray have sealed us here, so we can only find the true descendants of Evans and Galfrey, and then bring them back and drain their blood in this sealed land. ”

After the forging god finished saying this terrible method, Gawain's heart tightened suddenly, the descendants of Gao Frey were the demon royal family and the elven royal family, and the only descendant of Evans he knew was Adelia.

As soon as he thought of this, Jiwen's voice immediately became cold.

"But how did you leave this world in search of the descendants of Evans and Gaufrey, and how did you return? ”

The only thing that can travel between the two worlds is a summoned beast that relies on summoning magic, or a space mage that can rival Evans back then. In Given's view, these creatures, who are called gods, are not good at this.

In the face of these problems, the forging god Zedrik was unusually honest and told the gods their plans in full.

"Cassiu, the god of the forest, has found a new servant called the Spirit of Ironwood, who has found a space-tearing spellcasting device, from which Sulu plans to return to the real world. ”

The forging god first started with himself being sealed under this strange stone forest, and then mentioned that a creature called the Spirit of Ironwood occupied this stone forest, constantly digging downward, seeping into the roots, trying to absorb the power of the sealed god. But his greed was exploited by the god of the forest, who used the botanical origin of the spirit of ironwood to erode him and turn him into an obedient puppet.

The new servant of the god of the forest stopped digging and began to work hard to free his master, and under his arrangement with the god of the forest, he set countless traps, and after a long wait, finally got the blood needed to break the seal.

Breaking free from the seal is only the first step in Sulu's vast plan, and all efforts will be in vain if he can't return to the real world from this cage-like space.

Fortunately, the capable Ironwood Spirit found a group of mages who could design automatic magic devices, and he kidnapped them, and with the help of the gods, he created a device that could automatically cast spatial magic, opening up tiny gaps in the real world.

In this way, the doppelgangers of the gods can return to the real world, find the sacrificial blood needed to open the complete seal, and then completely untie the shackles and return to the human world.

Hearing this, Givens finally understood why the Ironwood Spirits tore up the Covenant and raided the Mage Castle, why they plundered the magic devices that could cast spells automatically, why they robbed the old goblin Harvey, and why they were carefully drawn into the caverns deep underground.

Everything was the work of these gods, and now the gods have even set their hands on Adelia and Djoonmi.

Givenn would never allow the gods' plans to succeed, and he hurriedly asked, "Where are Sulu and Kasiu now?"

"I don't know, everything is arranged by Cassius and Sulu through the Spirit of Ironwood. They should have returned to the real world by now. ”

Hearing this answer, Givin shook his head, he was not yet at a loss enough to believe in these gods without reservation.

"So how do I know what you're saying is true? Why are you telling me that?"

"Because we're not enemies. If I'm right, the first thing Sulu, the god of fire, did when he returned to the real world was not to open the seal, but to find a way to completely kill me and Kasiu and devour our god core,"

"Why?" asked Given, surprised this time.

"Why?" the forging god suddenly let out a laugh like a steel wheel, "Sulu is a megalomaniac, and his ultimate goal is to become the only god in the world and enjoy the faith of all people. And we're just a burden that it has to deal with. Devour us, and the power that breaks the seal will go to him. ”

"And you've been helping Sulu?" said Given, who didn't understand the relationship between the gods.

"I'm not interested in absorbing the beliefs of the people, I just want to make something more valuable. As long as the flame of the furnace remains, I will not extinguish it. However, as a god, sometimes you don't have a choice, you always have to choose a side when there is a fight, and there is no place for cold bystanders in the world of gods. ”

After saying it in one breath, the forging god Zedrik raised his head and made an unprecedented request.

"Maybe now we can work together. I can help you fight Sulu and Cassiu. I know their weaknesses better than anyone. ”

Zedrick's proposal made Given's pondering: it would be a huge advantage to get the help of a god in the confrontation with the fire god Sulu, but Given's had also suffered a great loss from the spirit of the forging gods, and he always had a deep sense of distrust in the face of these legendary guys.

Seeing that Jivin was hesitating, Zedrik continued to persuade: "Hetos is my oracle, I can see that you fused my forge of forges, and the shield in your hand is from my temple. Whether it's your dagger or the weapons in the hands of your friends, the work of the forge. We have so many connections. ”

"What do you think, Hetoth?" Given, turning his head sideways, asked the Flame Giant. Hetos has been an envoy for many years, so he should know the nature of the forging god, and compared to the forging god who was sealed by Evans, Jiwen would rather believe in Hetos, who once pulled him.

"I don't like him. Hetos was blunt.

Hearing Hetoth's answer, the Forge God's face took on a twisted expression. But before he could explain, another voice joined the conversation.

"Don't bother, just smash his divine core, and all the problems will be solved. ”

Ji Wen followed the sound and looked back and saw a huge mottled armor approaching him. The Hammer Warrior Lytius, or the last Demon Monarch Golfre, finally appeared in front of Given.
