Chapter 58: Conspiracy
One sentence hits the nail on the head, no matter how angry Leila is and how disorderly she is, the desire and hope to survive still dominate Laila.
She stopped.
No objection, just acquiescence.
"Actually, I have a great way to get the best of both worlds. Not only can it keep Lyra from falling, but the Red Knight can also vent. ”
"Really!?" It was the Red Knight who spoke.
"That's right! In my plan, the only person who suffers is Ciric. ”
Lyra's avatar didn't say a word, turned around, and stared at Raven.
Raven glanced at Leila disdainfully, "You can't look at me with the eyes of an enemy." It's your business that you can't keep the Holy Land, but I'll help you kill two priests of Ciric and get two points of divinity. You didn't do anything...... Oh no, you used your divine powers to cut off Morn from Ciric while I was performing. ”
“……”
"Che, don't think that the gods are necessarily right. Without me, Sainz and Effie would have been assassinated by Morne. ”
Leila's incarnate body trembled, and finally her attitude softened: "Okay, I believe you once." ”
Leila relented, and Raven didn't say anything harsh about Leila anymore. The unrelenting tricks of the Lord of Lies, Ciric, keep his opponents in a state of nervous tension for a long time. This kind of torture can only be deeply experienced by those who have experienced it.
Leila turned to the Red Knight and asked, "I can trust Raven for the time being, but that doesn't mean I have to trust you." Raven's plan seems to require your help. Red Knight, say why you're joining. ”
The Red Knight was a bit of a struggle, but she had never been willing to face Ciric. Especially now that the feeling of being dragged into the water makes her very bad. However, Raven succeeded in his plan again and again, killing two important priests of Ciric in a row, and the feeling of knowing Ciric inside out gave the Red Knight confidence.
The Red Knight was tickled, and finally she said, "I didn't say that I would definitely join, but I will talk about it after hearing about this kid's plan." But Leila asks me for a reason...... Well, Ciric once ruined one of my voters. His name was Elantis, and he used to be the god of war in Tikuri, a small northern country. Once, he had used a brilliant strategy to win over the enemy. However, the bastard of Ciric deceived his lover with a lie, so that his lover committed suicide by believing that Elantis had died on the front lines. Erantis had a nervous breakdown and eventually committed suicide. ”
The killing of a god's chosen people is enough to justify the gods to go to war.
Leila nodded in approval.
Seeing that the two famous goddesses were obediently listening to their own fools, Raven suddenly had a sense of supreme superiority in his heart: this is the advantage of the Crossing Reborn!
Raven waved his hand, the horror disappeared, and Shadow Kill returned to Raven's shadow.
"Bell, you go out first."
Leyla estimated what had been told, and Sainz silently exited the space, staring at Bell from outside the carriage.
Clearing his throat, Raven spoke, "I never thought of forcing two gods with weak divine power to fight against a combination of gods with medium and one weak divine power. ”
"Wait! Who is the weaker divine power? Leila exclaimed.
Raven sighed, he has been fighting for several months, and he hasn't found out that his opponents are not one but two, no wonder you were pitted to death in your last life: "The other is the god of thieves, Mesk." ”
Lyra's avatar froze entirely, apparently a slowly flowing mist female figure, now like an ice sculpture.
The Red Knight was not surprised, she had been reluctant to come forward to help Lyra against Ciric, because she had astutely calculated that more than one god on the other side was involved in plotting against Lyra.
It took a long time for Leila to digest the news: "Go on. ”
"To deal with Ciric, you must first scare off Maiske. There aren't many gods who can suppress these two guys at the same time, and those who happen to have power near the Misty Mountain Range don't have a ready-made existence? ”
Lyra and the Red Knight's avatar looked at each other and said in unison, "Bane!?" ”
"Yes!" Raven smiled.
"I'm against it!"
"I refuse!"
Raven raised his hand, stopping the agitated reaction of the two goddess avatars.
"I didn't say I wanted you to be in league with Bane. Everyone knows the tyranny and tyranny of Bane, the god of tyranny. We don't need to work with someone who also likes to spread intrigue and strife. We just need Bane's forces to come in and clear out Ciric's men as we wish. ”
"Are you kidding?" Lyla asked.
"I've proven with the lives of two priests of Shirek that I'm not joking."
Leila was suddenly speechless.
Raven continued, "It is well known that Bane himself once died in a fierce battle outside Port Tantris with Thom, the god of loyalty, the god of courage. His church collapsed, and most of the faithful defected to Shirek, the prince of lies at the time, and the heir of Bane, the son of a powerful demon long ago, Achitu *Sham, who inherited most of Bane's priesthood. ”
Later, he resurrected in the body of his son Sham, and regained the power of Sham, but many of Bane's followers refused to return after they switched to Ciric. So for the last ten years, Ciric's priest has become Bane's favorite sacrifice. Especially the ...... who have renegade" said this, and a charming smile appeared on Raven's face.
Leila always had a premonition that Raven would be pulled into the pit, but unfortunately she couldn't resist: "Go on. ”
"It was 'Black Will' Halken Akmiril who broke through the Misty Mountains Sanctuary last night, right?"
"Yes!" Leila gritted her teeth.
"But not many people know that this high-ranking priest from the 'Twin Towers of Eternal Eclipse' is actually Bane's former right-hand man."
"So what? He now works with an army of monsters from Moulin City, led by two ogre wizards. There are simply no forces nearby that can be confronted. ”
"Just because there's nothing near doesn't mean there's no place farther away." Raven took out a simple map and pointed to a place five hundred miles away: "I happen to know that last night Ban issued an oracle that three days later would be a holy day, asking the priests to offer sacrifices. And there was a new High Priest named Darth Nir who was completely unprepared, and it just so happened that he had messed up a bit of what Bane had asked him to do. ”
The Red Knight suddenly spoke, "Bane will not spare any loser, unless that loser can offer a rich sacrifice that will soothe his anger." And I know that this Duke Darsnil is in control of the only White Dragon Knights in the Mosha Empire. ”
"He wouldn't mind coming to the Misty Mountains to wash the ground with ice to catch a priest of Cirek. Even if it comes at such a high cost. Raven made a decision: "Red Knight, can you find a way to get the believers to notify Darsnier?" ”
"Yes."
"What am I going to do?" Leila asked.
Raven pointed to the map: "Let the remaining believers who died in the Misty Mountains lure the forces of Halken and take them to the Misty Grand Canyon, and delay until the White Dragon Knights enter the field, and you use your divine power to clear the fog there." ”
"What about me?" The Red Knight asked.
"Are there any of your followers in the city of Moulin?" In fact, Raven asked knowingly.
"Yes, the lord of the city is my fanatical follower."
"Very well, let the city lord bring his Tempest Demon Arrow Regiment here, here, and here." Raven pointed to several locations on the map: "When the fog clears, coordinate with the White Dragon Knights to attack, and withdraw immediately after three rounds of arrow rain." Otherwise, I don't rule out that they will be killed by mistake by the White Dragon Knights. When evacuating, the Phantom Goddess covered with divine powers. ”
After Raven finished speaking, both Lyra and the Red Knight had a very strange feeling. Obviously, they are the gods on the top, but how can they get here and feel like they have become pawns.
Even if they only work together temporarily because of Ciric, the ultimate target, this situation of being controlled by a small mortal still makes them very uncomfortable.
Leila is a bit of a bad brain, and it is enough for her to keep her important believers.
The Red Knight was clearly thinking more.
In the end, the two goddesses agreed.
The Red Knight incarnate departed first. The Lyra avatar was silent for a moment before speaking, "Halken killed my High Priest and the Third Priest. I lost eight divinities. I know that Halken didn't sacrifice it all. If I can get some divinity back, I can give you a little more phantom divinity as payment. ”
"Huh! I'm really looking forward to it. "Divinity, as long as it doesn't come with trouble, of course, the more the better. Even if Raven's body can't bear so much divinity for the time being, he can still use it to feed the Shadow Moon Blade!
Shadow divinity and phantom divinity are actually a bit similar in nature, and if they are used together, they can still improve the blade of the shadow moon, but the effect is not so good.
The corners of Raven's mouth curled into a mysterious smile, and he wanted to observe. If after this time, Layla is willing to pay for the good stuff, Raven doesn't mind helping her again. After all, it's definitely not a good thing to let Ciric get the Phantom Priesthood. This means that Ciric will become very difficult to kill.
Let Ciric pounce to death, but it is one of Raven's important wishes after the crossing!
