Chapter 489: Lord of the Abyss

Knowledge is power, and Arthur is never an empty phrase.

And so many of the secrets that have disappeared in Arthur's turbulent history can even make a mortal a god on the spot.

This is also in Arthur's skill system, more than ten types of "knowledge skills" just rely on connecting the source of knowledge, allowing countless mages to invest a lot of points in the skill points that are not rich in the first place.

Now an immortal being, one of the three demon lords who had witnessed the rise and fall of the gods of the previous generation, was willing to confide in him a piece of history, which was an opportunity that countless people dreamed of but never obtained.

Even with the demonic lord's malicious curse in front of them, the mages will still fight for it, and they will not hesitate to go to the soup and fire.

Only a mage who has experienced suffering knows that some "knowledge" is invaluable in itself.

At this time, the demon lord Grazt, who was standing behind Zhao Xu, felt Zhao Xu's default attitude.

He couldn't help but let out a satisfying laugh, like the tumbling of lava as a volcano was about to erupt.

"At the first meeting between the two of us, you came out for the mage Frank to get his soul back. At that time, in order to ensure the 'effect of the oath', you attracted the power of the goddess of magic, Sislvina, on the spot. ”

"The power of the true god, through the effect of the 'miracle technique' of the Nine Rings Great Divine Technique, no, it should be said to be the 'miracle technique', formed an impenetrable cage, blocking the invasion of my abyssal power on the spot."

"Can you imagine that scene, what a humiliation it would be for an Abyss Lord?"

Demon Lord Grazter said, raising his voice with a hint of exclamation.

Hearing this, Zhao Xu finally understood.

He still underestimated the cost of "annoying" a demonic lord.

If it weren't for the Nine-Ring Mage Frank, who gave him the "Mithril Crystal" and the "Legendary Necromancer Staff" and "Super Demon Instant Scepter" that could bring him tens of millions of gold coins in the future, otherwise this business would have been a loss.

"The gods spread the splendor of faith, and the devout and persevering among the believers become priests and perform divine magic. But there is also a question of cost and the limitation of the scale of divine power. Otherwise, let the believers directly become legendary priests, and Arthur will be able to be completely ruled by a certain god overnight, so you don't know where your 'miracle' value is at that time. ”

"Although I realized that you were able to perform powerful magic with the possession of the Holy Spirit at that time. However, every miracle technique can only be performed after the examination of the gods, or it itself has the endorsement of the gods. ”

"A good pastor kills innocents indiscriminately with divine magic, and that is the sin of a pastor. But using miracles to wipe out the creatures of a city will only be a manifestation of God's mighty will, and the church of the good gods will not even say a word of, but will crown you as a saint. ”

In this regard, Zhao Xu just twitched the corners of his mouth disdainfully.

This demon lord Grazt has been dragging out about that long period of ancient history, just inverting these things, and even deliberately instilling in him the concept of causing the "collapse of the Dao heart", but he looks down on Zhao Xu, who has been influenced by Arthur's native land for ten years.

To put it mildly, no one on earth can betray their class.

And Arthur, there is no real camp that can betray him.

The gods of the good camp will only start from the good camp, and will not use ghost tricks to do things that go against the camp.

This is also the reason why mortals have such a great faith in gods and respect for priests.

"So at the time, I wondered why the goddess of magic, Sislvina, was so kind to you. In particular, Sislvina's style is not like some goddesses of magic in the universe, who have a tendency to meet and fall in love with ordinary people and give birth to a son of God. ”

"As I watched, I discovered more wonderful elements. You're just a regular level 1 priest, and you're just a player. The combination of various factors makes me believe that you must have something very special. ”

At this time, the voice of the Demon Lord Grazt began to become excited and surging, and even trembling.

"Eventually, my followers in the Floating City inquired about something for me. A mysterious player mage sits on the seat of the former Arcane King. When the man performed the awakening ritual, colorful streamers poured down, and even ......"

"All kinds of speculation make me set my eyes on your fate."

"Mystra's Floating City rejects the divine power of most gods, but will not stop the divine power of the goddess of magic, which is also one of her few 'reserved places'. Therefore, she, who has the divine power of fate, first screened for me. ”

"And this is the beginning of all our stories, the legend of Arthur's beginning, the creation of the Serpents of Order."

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Xu seemed to feel the scorching air around him flowing extremely rapidly.

The smell of sulfur and gunsmoke gushed out from the smoke-shrouded altar in front of it.

"Creation?" Zhao Xu was surprised.

"That's right. This is a legend about Arthur's original creation and prophecy of the end of the world, but most of the people who were lucky enough to hear it at the beginning only heard part of it. Including the original elemental gods, as well as the abyss lords like me, and even the gods who ascended to the top in later generations, they also knew a little about this. ”

"What are the legends and prophecies about?" At this time, Zhao Xu had already discovered his heart and couldn't help beating with it.

Immediately he asked his own question, "Ernest? ”

Legends refer to what happened in the past, and prophecy is the possibility of telling the future.

He had only heard about the destruction of the world not long ago, when Antinoia had taken him to visit the elemental god Moszerin.

"Huh. You'll have to retell the legend of 'Ernest', who has left Arthur, to know the full story. As for the prophecy, I've heard some of it. When Grazt said this, Zhao Xu could even hear the taste of gnashing his teeth from the other party's mouth.

"Have you ever suffered?" Zhao Xu asked rhetorically.

"If it weren't for the cunning Ernest who intervened and deliberately induced such a prophecy, how could my great Grazt still be unable to unify the abyss?"

"Don't say 'Lord of the Abyss', you can't even become a nominal 'Lord Monarch'?" Grazter said resentfully.

With incomparably strong control, he still can't hide the resentment in his chest when he mentions his past at this time.

"What did he prophesy?" Even if he knew that this was not good, Zhao Xu still couldn't hide the gossip in his chest.

The initial "legend" can't be heard, so it's okay to listen to the subsequent "prophecy".

"Huh." Grazt was also a little lonely, as if he had been depressed in his chest for many years, and for the first time he could explain it to people.

"The ancient and immortal being has descended with the consciousness of the first birth of the world, and the abyss will usher in its true master. At that time, the River Styx will flow backwards, and a new bloody battle will spread to the world, deciding whether it will be destroyed or restarted. ”

"It's nothing, is it?" Zhao Xu flipped through the original text and thought about it over and over again, but he didn't hear anything wrong.

How did it hinder this Grazt from becoming the "sovereign" back then.

Hearing of the destruction of the world, I am afraid that the demons will be excited.

Chaos and evil have no justification in themselves.

And if this prophecy is an incomparably sad "fate" that will inevitably come true.

Then why is Grazt in front of him still so excited to fight for the position of "Demon Lord", shouldn't he die early?

"It doesn't make sense, but, but—"

The strength in Grazt's tone began to fail, and Zhao Xu even saw the shadow in front of him shaking.

But in doing so, it obliterates in one fell swoop the existence of consciousness that has not witnessed the birth of the world.

Relying on a prophecy, I was about to rely on power to become the nominal 'co-master'. ”

"Those older demon lords, on the contrary, are full of ambition, believing that they are the future masters of the abyss, and immediately disobey my rule."

"The abyss that originally tended to be integrated and violated the chaotic nature, this incomparably rare opportunity for unification, was directly torn up by this prophecy."

“……”

Hearing this, Zhao Xu didn't know whether to persuade or not.

Witness the creation of the world, there is something, and if there is not, there is nothing.

Last time, Ernest used prophecy to make Moszelin, an ancient god who could be said to have witnessed the birth of the world, commit suicide.

And the famous dark lord - Grazt, is known for his strength, but it has little to do with "ancient".

The oldest demons, if they really had the ability, would have unified most of the abyss long ago, where would it be the turn of a rising star like Grazt.

"And how did you find out something was wrong?"

Zhao Xu asked, at this time, Grazt still had the intention of ascending to the "Lord Monarch", obviously the situation was different.

"Because, the lord who heard this 'prophecy' at the beginning heard it. At that time, Ernest had uttered this prophecy in the primeval language of Purgatory, but the lord was too young to hear it, and heard 'hell' as 'the abyss'. ”

Suddenly, in Zhao Xu's ears, there seemed to be a flock of crows flying by.

This is here to be funny, right?
