Chapter 729: Mutual Reckoning (3/4)

All the red dragons and dragonmen left in less than half an hour, and then in the next half hour, they left this mountain range.

Afterwards, everyone, including the Grand Lord of Furstad, including the Hammer Griffon Knights and the Silver Hand, retreated, and it took a full three hours to evacuate the mountain range.

When night fell, Jiang Zheng was the only one left in the whole city.

Jiang Zheng could feel that loneliness, desolation, and despair, the power of the ancient gods affected him all the time, and he could even feel that the power of more than one ancient god was entrenched in this city.

Two to be exact.

One is the power of "Enzos" and the other is the power of Saratas.

Neither force is strong.

Saratas was far weaker than the other ancient gods, and the curse power she left in the city was naturally much weaker.

Enzos used to be the weakest of the Elder Gods, and now he is the most powerful of the Elder Gods, but its prison is in the deepest part of the Endless Sea, far from the Twilight's Hammer, and its power extends here, which is already very weak, and it is also not cared about by Jiang Zheng.

The ancient gods are the best at perceiving people's hearts and manipulating their hearts, but Jiang Zheng's heart is strong enough.

A person who has seen too much scenery is naturally much stronger than ordinary people in his heart.

What's more, he has been in close contact with Saratas for more than two months, and he has been suppressing her, and he is not even afraid of her essence, how can he be afraid of a small curse?

"Let's begin, Saratas."

Jiang Zai stretched out his hand, and the dark dagger inlaid with the eyeballs of the ancient god appeared in his hand, and then as Jiang Zai raised his hand, he floated in mid-air, turning into the appearance of a human female priest: "Lift the curse here and take back the power you left in this city, this is also what you want, isn't it?" You've been secretly making me want to come here more and more and purify the city, haven't you? ”

The sound was flat, but like a morning bell and a dusk drum, beating in Saratas's heart.

Saratas was stunned: "You, you know? ”

"The corruption of the Elder Gods, like a drop of rain and dew, has never been noticeable. I don't know if you're influencing me to come here with confidence. Now it seems that it was. ”

Jiang Zheng said lightly: "With the power you left here, you will become stronger, maybe you can suppress the holy light and evil energy in one fell swoop, break the balance of the three talents, destroy me, or take the opportunity to control me, right?" In that case, let's do it, Saratas! ”

The corruption of the Elder Gods is sometimes incredibly swift, and in a split second it can break your spiritual will and make you a servant of the Shadows.

But sometimes, it is inconspicuous and imperceptible.

The corruption of Salatas clearly belongs to the latter.

The reason why people are human beings is that they will inevitably have all kinds of negative emotions and all kinds of desires in their hearts, which cannot be completely eliminated.

If it can be eliminated, people will not be human, but more frightening and pathetic beings.

The Elder Gods are masters at influencing these negative emotions and amplifying desires.

Lifting Grimbaato's curse is obviously one of Jiang Zai's desires, and this desire coincides with what Saratas wants to do.

So, Saratas magnified this desire, so that Jiang Zheng, who had been thinking about going to the Blackstone Tower or Grimbaatar first, finally chose Grimbaatar.

Because Nefarian and Ragnaros, the king of the fire demons, are both subordinates of the ancient god Enzos, and they are both demigod-level existences, she is worried that Jiang Zheng is not the opponent of those two, and when she falls into the hands of those two, it will be equivalent to falling into the hands of Enzos.

The consequences are unimaginable.

This is the power of the ancient gods, a power that is almost impossible to dodge.

The ancestors of humanity were the Veku people, the creatures of the Titans, but what really led to the appearance of humans was the flesh curse of the Elder Gods.

To some extent, all flesh and blood creatures in this world should regard the ancient gods as their creators.

The power of the ancient gods naturally remains in the blood of all flesh and blood creatures, and desires and negative emotions come from this.

If you can't dodge, don't dodge.

So Jiang Zheng came here.

"Despicable human!" Saratas gritted his teeth.

She suddenly felt that in fact, human beings were the most terrifying creatures, the most complex creatures, with hearts that even the ancient gods and the Dreadlord could not penetrate.

Humans have a much shorter lifespan than dwarves and elves, and they are not born with the same powerful talents as dwarves and elves, let alone dragons.

Human beings also have many more desires and negative emotions than dwarves and elves, and those humans she once controlled sometimes have negative emotions and desires that she didn't even expect, which made her happy and made her ......

There is some fear.

Yes, these negative emotions and desires of human beings allow her to control human beings better and easier, but this feeling of not being able to fully control makes her very unhappy.

Human beings are creatures that can never be fully understood and controlled, and no one knows when and how powerful this humble creature can burst out.

For example, the human female pastor more than ten years ago.

She wasn't really strong, she was just a Holy Light Bishop in Lordaeron, she didn't have a legendary-level soul, and she didn't have a legendary-level spirit.

Of all the creatures she fancies, she was almost the weakest.

However, after she corrupted the ancient troll high priest and the Black Iron Witch, she corrupted a legendary-level powerhouse and a legendary-level soul, but in the end, she could not corrupt a human female priest who was not powerful.

Even if she was so weak, even if she was on the verge of depravity countless times, she finally survived again and again.

She was not corrupted until she died.

Saratas liked her and was a little afraid of her.

Because she made Saratas discover that there is also a place where the power of the ancient gods cannot reach, and that is the human heart.

The human heart is changeable, and the human race is so weak, but it has endless potential, a creature created by the Titans and the Elder Gods, a poor species that was once considered "deformed", but has evolved into the most promising race in Azeroth today.

So every time she transformed, she turned into the appearance of a human female priest, which was a commemoration and a wake-up call to herself.

Her name is "Natalie", and her body is buried in the Twilight Forest.

There is definitely more than one Natalie in this world, if he hadn't been cornered in the first place, Benedictas would not have used the Dark Dagger, he was barely another Natalie.

Maybe the one in front of you is also one of them.
