After some grumbling, Azazel finally gave in.

He was successfully promoted from the contractor of the Demon God Labyrinth to the contractor of the Demon God Labyrinth + Titan Ruins.

Eve is quite satisfied with the heartfelt choice of the Seventh Demon God.

"Although I complained, I promised quite simply, it seems that there is still potential to be tapped."

He thought with a wicked look at the corners of his mouth.

After that, Eve groaned for a while, and simply used the priest system in the game network to pick a few dedicated priest players and send them two hidden quests.

Like the hidden quest sent to the First Priest player Rancho a while ago, it is still the coordinates of the Titan Ruins, which are located to the west of the Elven Forest and the two ruins on the Death Desert.

Both of these Titan ruins have been excavated, and there are no good things left.

It's just that this is only for Eve, for players, the tattered in the eyes of the true god may be the best treasure in their eyes, so there is still a lot of development value.

After the players explore, they can directly send the King of the Fairies Finiel, and hand over the follow-up monster spawns of these two ruins to Azazel.

Perfect.

Of course, these two ruins should not bring Eve any big surprises.

At most, it will become a new quest to divert players, like the first Titan Ruins, slowly empowering Eve and bringing joy to the players.

However, the undiscovered Titan ruins on the Fertile Plains can still be expected......

Undiscovered means that there is likely to be a real artifact, or even other good things.

As previously envisaged, Eve dug out the roster of players and began to look for familiar and recognized high-level players in it, intending to send them a quest to explore the ruins of the Titan of the Fertile Plains, which would be counted as early exploration.

However, just after Eve ticked a few IDs, her heart suddenly moved, and she sensed a call from the dwarf and the god of forging, Dolft.

That was the contact information he had agreed with the other party, and the location was still the Pantheon.

"Dolft? Blighted Heart was repaired so quickly? ”

Eve was stunned, then rejoiced.

It's been less than a month since he last met with the other party, and the repair efficiency of this artifact can be said to be quite fast.

With anticipation, he temporarily put aside the release of the quest to explore the ruins of the Fertile Plains? Answering the call again? Entered the Pantheon......

The light flickered, and Eve's consciousness flowed? Stirring divine power transformed into a projection? Appears on the Seat of Life and Nature in the Pantheon.

And when he arrived, Dolft, the dwarf and the god of forging, was already waiting.

It's just that? When Eve looked at the other party, she saw that the dwarven god was looking at her with a serious and wary expression.

Well?

What happened?

Looking at Dolft's face as if he were on the verge of a great enemy? Eve's heart moved? Then he became vigilant.

"Your Majesty Dolft, what's wrong with you? Is something wrong with the withering heart? ”

He asked in a deep voice.

Hearing Eve's question, Dolft didn't answer it immediately.

The dwarven god nodded, then shook his head.

Afterwards? He looked at Eve? His eyes are full of scrutiny and solemnity:

"Your Majesty Eve, I have a few questions for you."

Issue?

Eve's heart jumped.

"Excuse me."

He said.

Dolft took a deep breath and then asked a question that baffled Eve:

"Your Majesty, Eve, you ...... What do you think of the abyss? ”

What do you think of the abyss?

Eve was slightly stunned.

He hesitated, wondering why the dwarves and the god of forging would ask.

What does the other party look like? It's like judging your own position......

Well?

Standpoint?

The afterglow swept over the ornate and solemn reliefs in the Pantheon, and Eve's heart moved slightly.

He groaned for a moment? I chose the most appropriate and most accepted answer by the gods:

"The abyss is the enemy of the gods? It is capable of contaminating all planes of the Seggs crystal wall system, bringing disaster to the world......"

"For the abyssal forces? As a true God? We must fight it to the end. ”

Eve's voice? Ethereal and clear, echoing in the pantheon.

As Dolft listened to His answer, he watched vigilantly for the pantheon's reliefs.

When he found that the relief was unresponsive, he finally breathed a sigh of relief:

"The mantra relief hasn't changed, it's great, Eve crown...... It seems that you have not been polluted by the abyss. ”

Contaminated?

Eve's heart jumped.

Not to mention whether the World Tree, which can absorb the power of the abyss, will be polluted, and how can the power of the abyss have a chance to invade his soul.

"What happened? So much so that you even need to rely on the Truth of the Pantheon to verify my position? Is it related to the withering heart? ”

Eve asked, frowning.

Dolft sighed and nodded:

"Yes, it does have something to do with the withering heart."

Then He looked at Eve again and asked:

"Second question, Crown Eve, have you ever used your divine power to purify the withered heart?"

Purifying the withering heart?

When have I ever purified the withered heart?

Eve looked puzzled.

He was about to say no, but suddenly his heart moved, and a picture appeared in the depths of his soul......

It was the memory he had when he had just gained the withering heart and was searching for it.

Recalling this memory, Eve's expression suddenly froze.

No......

He purified ......

He did purify the withered heart, just when he had just acquired the true artifact......

And it was easy and complete to clear all the abyssal power in the withered heart!

But how could he forget about it?

Not to mention, why did he acquiesce to the pollution of the abyssal power that still existed in the withering heart when he handed it over to Dolft?

No, it's not a tacit acquiescence, but there is indeed pollution, otherwise Dolft wouldn't have said that the abyssal power inside would be difficult to remove......

In other words, he didn't completely eliminate the power of the abyss at all!

However, when he communicated with Dolft, he didn't even notice anything wrong, and he even directly ignored that he had "purified" this true artifact......

At this thought, Eve's expression sank slightly.

He suddenly realized that he might have been unknowingly affected by some mysterious force, and his memory and judgment had been disturbed......

When is it?

The moment you got the withering heart?

Or is it the moment when it is purified?

"Looks like you've noticed."

Seeing Eve's slightly changing expression, Dolft sighed softly.

"What did you find?"

Eve asked with a solemn expression.

Dolft raised his hand slightly, and the light in his hand flashed, and a string of skeletal necklaces appeared, which was the withered heart.

He looked at the withered heart and said:

"Your Majesty Eve, if I am not misjudged, this artifact is probably not a seal-type artifact, but a tainted mental control artifact......"

"A tainted mind control artifact?"

Eve frowned.

"That's right."

Dolft continues:

"It all starts with me taking it back to the kingdom of God......

"Your Majesty, after I took the withered heart back to the kingdom of God, I started to repair it, and before repairing, I plan to do my best to remove the abyss power from it......"

"In my original plan, I planned to spend three days suppressing the abyss power as much as possible, just ...... When I finished the first day, I forgot about it the next day, and I tacitly agreed that I had done it. ”

"If it weren't for the habit I developed before I became a god, I would have recorded my daily forging records, maybe I wouldn't have noticed this until this true artifact was repaired."

"But fortunately, I have the habit of going through the forging records of the previous day every day, and I have found the clues."

"Unconsciously, my memory and judgment were affected by this true artifact......"

"Not only that, but when I found out about this and asked the oracles who helped me repair the artifact, I found that they had also forgotten about it, and two of them were even tainted by some abyssal power......"

Listening to Dolft's words, Eve looked solemn:

"Withered Heart?"

"That's right, it's the contamination of the withered heart, and no one can detect it, if it weren't for the fact that I've been wearing the lock of my mind, maybe I'd be polluted too."

Dolft smiled wryly.

There was still a hint of fear on his face:

"But fortunately, the situation of the two oracles is not serious, at most it makes the personality a little paranoid, and it took me a lot of effort to purify it."

"So...... Are you worried that I, who have been using it for a long time or even confessing it, will also be contaminated? ”

Eve asked.

"Exactly."

Dolft nodded.

As he spoke, He breathed a sigh of relief:

"But it's good that you haven't been affected yet, and it seems that your resistance to the abyss is stronger than I thought......"

Because I'm a World Tree, I do have super resistance, otherwise...... I'm afraid I've been polluted a long time ago.

Eve said in her heart.

He thought for a moment and frowned slightly:

"But my memory seems to have been affected as well, and I remembered that I had purified it, and it was completely purified......"

"This is another problem I discovered, Her Majesty Eve, after perceiving the strange power of the withering heart, I spent a lot of divine power, and I am carefully examining it under the premise of doing a good job of protection, and I found that it is not a seal-type artifact, but a rare artifact that affects the mental state!"

Dolft said excitedly.

He rubbed the skull necklace in his hand and sighed:

"It's just...... It seems to have undergone some kind of camouflage, showing the appearance of a sealing artifact, but in essence, it is not actually a seal, but a kind of mental suggestion to the target, implying that the other party's own power has been completely imprisoned, so that the target can actively and unconsciously seal its own power itself......"

"This is its true power!"

"Of course, it affects our judgment, and it is also through this force, but because it is eroded by the power of the abyss, this influence will be shifted to the side of the abyss...... That's why the previous problems arise. ”

So that's it......

Eve was slightly stunned.

He couldn't help but look at the withered heart, and his heart was amazed.

What kind of real artifact is this? How can you even hide the existence of the Lord?

However, this explains why he had memory bias before.

A spiritual artifact that can influence the judgment of the true god can be said to be quite terrifying......

"So, did you fix it?"

Eve asked again.

Dolft shook his head:

"That's the last question I want to ask......

As he spoke, his expression grimaced:

"Your Majesty Eve, do you really want to use it? You should be able to imagine how terrifying an artifact that has been infected by the power of the abyss and can affect the will of the true god......"

"This artifact reminds me of a secret...... It is said that at the end of the Titan Era, the war that swept the two races of Titans and Dragons was actually played by the rising Titans who pressed the dragons, and the hole cards of the Titans were not their powerful physique, but the mysterious and powerful sealing power......"

How so?

Could it be that the Titans relied on the withered heart to fight the dragons?

Eve was amazed.

These things are not clear to Him, who has the inheritance of the World Tree.

In the inheritance of the World Tree, many key memories and knowledge have not been preserved......

"Then since this is the case, the ending of the battle between the Titans and the Dragon, why is the Titan extinction?"

Eve asked with another frown.

It's just that, even though he asked this question, he already had some speculation in his mind......

Dolft glanced at the withered heart in his hand, his eyes sighing.

He sighed and said:

"That battlefield caused the entire crystal wall system to usher in a catastrophe......"

"But in the end, it wasn't the dragon that caused the extinction of the Titans......"

"But at the time of the final battle, many mythical Titans, including the Titan King Anos, went crazy......"

"The mythical Titans went crazy and began to attack each other, and a shocking divine war occurred in the Titan Court, which directly caused the Titan Plane controlled by the Titan Giants to completely collapse, and the Titan clan was finally destroyed......"

Speaking of this, Dolft raised his head and looked at Eve with a solemn expression:

"Under Eve's crown, the withered heart comes from the ruins of the Titan Court......"

Listening to the words of the dwarf god, Eve's heart moved slightly.

He knew what he meant.

Dolft suspects that the Titans have been tainted by the power of the Abyss in the process of using the withering heart, and have fallen one after another......

In other words, the full version of the withered heart is even more powerful than he imagined, and the abyssal power that cannot be completely eliminated due to the inherent ability of the withered heart itself makes it extremely dangerous......

This is a double-edged sword that is too powerful for a true god to control!

"Your Majesty, do you still ask me to repair this true artifact?"

Dolft, the god of dwarves and forges, asked with a serious expression.
