Chapter 789: The Decisive Battle (15)
"Sophocle the Hypocrite, the most elusive of demonic bosses, he is most fond of tempting mortal warriors and strong men to fall, arranging fate and tragedy is his specialty, and I have always felt that he is more suitable than me for the title of King of Lies."
On that day in Hades, Tias, the lord of the devil, introduced me to the great demon in front of me.
At that time, Tias and I had highlighted the great achievements of the hypocrite Sophocles.
"His most famous deeds are probably that he once ran his own cult church on the main plane, and successfully made his own doppelganger a god, the demon boss actually succeeded in sealing a god, and also made an alliance with many true gods, which simply disgraced the gods on the side of order, and he and his followers are still the public enemies of all true god churches."
This may seem like an inconsequential background introduction, but when you look into it, it reveals a lot of things worth scrutinizing.
First of all, he once had a doppelganger act as a human hero, and gradually grew to a certain extent, began to establish his own church, and gradually embarked on the path of attaining godhood and faith, and finally ascending to the throne of God.
Then, his doppelganger not only succeeded in ascending to the gods, but was also recognized by the other gods of order and became a member of the true gods.
And the alliance with other true gods means that he not only has allies of the true gods, but also completely integrates into the system of the gods, and is likely to join a certain god system and become an important part of that god system.
"It's the equivalent of a family member who has become an old enemy......"
The gods are not idiots and imbeciles, and Sophoclery can succeed in the fraud, only if he comes up with the real thing. It is the true Godhead and priesthood. So. There are too many things to ponder and scrutinize.
"Heloise, what kind of church was founded by Sophocles, and what was the doctrine and priesthood?"
"Evolution and Species Hierarchy, which advocates the innate order between races and emphasizes self-evolution through effort, is centered on proposing an evolutionary ladder tree that includes various species, believing that each race has its own place. But at the top were the human race, and the other races were in the branch, and the other races naturally had great opinions, but the human countries at that time welcomed this view, and there seemed to be no problem. ”
No problem? Big problem!
This doctrine itself is a self-contradiction, on the one hand, it fixes the rank of the race, on the other hand, it encourages competition and evolution....... the strong are at the high point, the weak become strong through fighting and competition, and the whole world is a big jungle, isn't this the essence of the abyss!
How absurd. How foolish to put the essence of the abyss on a different note. Coupled with the packaging of great humanism, it was very popular in the camp of order dominated by humans, and finally succeeded in becoming the true god of the order side.
"....... wonder all the Churches of the True God regard it as mortal enemies, and as long as Sophoclery is alive, it is a symbol of the stupidity of the True God of all order."
Obviously, such a black history has been hidden in the shadows of the people involved, and most of the popes of the Order Church only know that Sophocle is a mortal enemy and do not know why, but the Lord of the Devil and the Elven Empress remember it clearly.
Talking about the past is not for idle chat, the past experience is an individual's life process, in which the things experienced and collected constitute his present.
The information added from Heloise, combined with the current appearance of Sophocles, finally came to me with a guess, and this guess should probably be absurd in theory.
"Sophocle, you're not a demon at all. You ......"
Yes, I have seen clearly, the armor of light is just a disguise, no matter how outrageous the sage civilization is, it is impossible for a single armor to control the power of order, if Sophoclery is really a pure demon, the power of the holy light and order will be directly burned out, just like my unlucky experiment, the unlucky bastard who was hypnotized to believe in summoning the holy light.
The demon is a creature of pure chaos, and no matter what his spirit and soul think, the forces of order, especially the Light that represents purification, will clash with his physical body.
And now, he is pretending to use the power of the armor to control and absorb the holy light, but in fact, it is his body that is using the power of chaos and order at the same time, then, there is only one explanation.
"....... you, hypocrite Sophoclery, are not a demon at all, but a true god of order!"
The small voice can even be called a murmur, but under the inexplicable resonance, this voice can be heard throughout the battlefield.
The roaring thunder brought incredible questioning, and the entire battlefield came to a standstill.
And the next moment, what reverberated in the world was the double echo of the holy sound and the roar.
"Yes, since order can be a form of chaos, then the law of the jungle and self-evolution represented by chaos are also a kind of order."
"Haha, you're so much smarter than those old guys, they still thought it was just a well-planned prank, but it never occurred to them that I had gained something by becoming a prank! I am not only the master of the abyss, but also the god of evolution! ”
Is this a dual personality? No, it's just that the avatar and the self use different ways of thinking, inexplicably, I think this pattern is very familiar.
"Isn't this the relationship between the sleepless and your being? It seems that someone has already walked ahead of you and incarnated as a god. But no matter how you look at it from that side, it's the opposite of you. ”
Heloise's reminder made me suddenly realize that we both created clones with some soul fragments and then successfully canonized them, but judging from the current model, they are completely different things.
I need a judge, so let the sleepless become an independent individual, merge with the concept of "law" to become a ruthless judge, and finally completely disconnect from me.
And Sophoclery, who has worked hard to ascend to the throne, still follows the basic principle of the abyss - to become stronger.
I could almost see what he had done.
His doppelganger ascended to the throne with the help of the power of faith, and then found out to be in contact with it, and the believers were regarded as a cult and banned, and the power of faith collapsed, which should have put the weak new god into eternal sleep, but it was swallowed by the cognate Sophocle and reunited.
Sophoclery's god-level chaotic power replaced the Force of Faith and was used to supply the growth of the god of evolution, while his ontology was quietly transforming in the direction of the god of order, and finally, Sophoclery, who successfully went public through the backdoor and borrowed the corpse to resurrect his soul, turned the incarnation into the ontology, and the ontology became the incarnation, which was divided into two.
“…… So, the ability he usually shows is only half of it? ”
If that's all it takes, it doesn't make me feel big, and the worst thing is that he has the characteristics and abilities of both a god and a great demon.
The privileged abilities of the gods, mainly reflected in the priesthood and divine power, they and their skills in creating a battle environment that seems to be their own, and using the rules to gain themselves and weaken the opponent, while the great demons, the chaos realm will cancel out and eat the opponent's rules, and then pull the two sides down to the same level for hand-to-hand combat, and the great demons who have reached the apex in the bloody evolution, the huge and terrifying body has said it all.
"The god of evolution, plus the great demon who is good at evolution, is really cheating......."
If I think about it, I can see countless possibilities for combining them, such as using evolutionary divine power to accelerate their own evolution, doubling their growth rate, or doubling the results and experience in certain fields, and this is still not the worst.......
"Trying to master order and chaos at the same time, this guy is also trying to get his hands on Creator-level power. His appearance is no longer a day or two, a year or two, what has he gained over the years, and what hole cards does he have? ”
I already feel that today is not too bad luck, if it is really as I expected, I am afraid that Sophoclery is not the weakest of the main gods at all, not only the strongest, but also the crushing strong.
The most cunning main god suddenly transformed into the most powerful main god, although it was unexpected, but it was also reasonable, but at this time it was too late to change people, and I had to grit my teeth to hold on.
I feel more and more that the situation is wrong, among the three abyss main gods, I originally thought that Danatis would be the leader and the core role, but now it is obviously not, definitely put into combat power at this time, what is Sophocle thinking?
At the same time, the tower of clouds falling from the sky also attracted the attention of the entire battlefield, and in the next moment, Sophoclery acted. (To be continued.) )
