Thirty-sixth Sura All are one
If an adventure is to be successful, a well-informed guide and companion are essential. If it's an adventure to Bato, what better place to be more familiar with the environment of Bato's Nine Prisons than the devils of hell?
Unfortunately, Muhadi now has a pitiful number of devils in his social circle.
In fact, the only nether sexist who has some friendship with him is the Lady of Grace, the hostess, boss, boss, and queen of crime at the Afterlife Club in Imprint City. That's why he's heading there, and it's easy to get anywhere from the Guò portal from the Seal City.
Nominally, the Psychiocrat and the Lady Out of Favor are husband and wife. However, no one took this union seriously, except for the otherworldly gods of the upper planes. Their laws prohibit them from interrogating violations of the couple's privilege of secrecy. Fall from grace uses this privilege to cover her cooperation with the Primordial Warlock.
If there was anything special about the brief transfiguration in the world of Mistara, it was that Muhadi was briefly exposed to the memories of the primordial warlock, and he remembered himself...... No, it's the content of the deal between the Primordial Warlock and the Lady of Grace.
She wants to rescue a powerful Obiris, the demon lord of Saurus, from the ancient times, and then drain his power to get revenge on the demons of Bato.
Fall from grace is the granddaughter of the Succubus Queen Mecansut, and the daughter of the Red Shroud, the first layer of the Demon Lord of the Bottomless Abyss. But shortly after she was born, she was sent to Bato as a slave. No one knows exactly what her life was like in Bato, and not many know that she was determined to take revenge on the devils.
As for the Demon Lord of Obiris, Setraus, he lived before the demons (usually the word for the Tanari demons) occupied the bottomless abyss, and there were not many rumors about his power.
But Muhadi remembered the Otherworldly Priest Kailin he had met unexpectedly in Mark, and she and her companions were fighting against the other Otherworldly Gods, because she believed that faith could not be forced, and that allowing the existence of the Wall of the Unbelievers by the good gods of the upper planes was an unspeakable tyranny that must be abolished. The otherworldly acolyte Awameen was the founder and original martyr of this movement. And Avameen suddenly came up with this idea after coming into contact with the demon lord of Obiris, Thetraus...... It seems that this Strauss is a very interesting being.
This made him feel a lot more confident when he faced the other party again.
Strangely shaped sapient beings from different planes come and go in this massive building, enjoying food and wine. The attendants were careful to entertain these guests with different customs, for fear of causing any trouble. Even with the Barthez Devil's guards to maintain order, chaos and brawls still broke out from time to time, and every once in a while a new corpse was transported to the Grand Morgue of the Marked City.
Some people come here to recruit thugs or exchange information, but there are also many people who come here to patronize the wisdom **** of the famous planes. Due to the different physiologies of different species in the multiverse, it is impossible to attract all races with conventional **. The secret of the success of Zhizhi **** is that it does not provide regular services, but just a place to chat. Of course, the succubi here will make people feel like a spring breeze in conversation and the exchange of ideas.
Ignoring the hustle and bustle of the building and all the hostile or envious glances, the Psychomancer walked across the crowded dance floor to the high platform where the Lady of Grace was customary, with a good view of the dance floor and the surrounding tables.
Two tall Hellpurgical thugs approached Muhadi, looked at him, shrugged, and signaled that he could pass Guò. Fall from grace sat on her sand in a comfortable position, wearing that trademark leather jacket, and raised her head slightly, even if she had said hello.
"We've got to talk, now. Muhathir said.
Falling out of favor crooked his neck, he pointed to the empty sand on the side with his chin and motioned for him to sit down and talk.
The sand was soft, and the Psychic slumped several inches when he sat down, making him look shorter. Psychic magicians often use similar tactics to put their visitors at a psychological disadvantage.
"I guess it has something to do with our deal?" said Fall from Grace, but didn't look at the Psychic Warlock.
"That's right. Muhathir said. "I'm planning to fulfill my side obligations. ”
"Good. Falling out of favor nodded contentedly, in a commanding tone. "I will also fulfill my obligation to provide you with information and manpower. and, most importantly, accurate knowledge of the portals in the Seal City. You can use it to send your army anywhere, at any time you wish. ”
"Good. The Psychic Warlock responded. "But to save the ...... Well, the ancient cunzài. I need a trip to Bartow......"
"He's sealed in Bato?!" Fall from grace interrupted Muhadi, staring at the Psychic Warlock with those black cunning eyes. For a moment, the Psychic thought he had seen through his lie.
"Funny, do the devils think they're safe by doing this?" thought Fall from grace, holding his chin and looking up at the magic lights of the club. From this side, she is imbued with a neutral beauty. That is, like a heroic beauty who is particularly determined, and like a particularly handsome young man. Of course, the succubus's peculiar twin horns reveal her true identity.
"I was thinking, maybe you can follow me to Bato's Nine Prisons, after all, you have the dual blood of Barthez Devil and Tanari Demon, and you ...... Bato"
"First of all, I don't like the terms 'Barthez Devil' or 'Tanari Devil'. Falling from grace said in a strong tone. "It's discrimination, with the Batez, the Tanari, that's good. ”
"Secondly, I can't go to Bartow, for reasons that don't need to be explained to you. But if it helps us in our trading. I can give you a couple of thugs. They were as familiar with the situation in Bartow's Nine Prisons as I was. "The Crime Queen of Imprint City built yì road.
The Psychic Warlock had planned to do so, and it was just a sky-high price to offer to fall out of favor and go to Bartow with him. "Very well, I'll personally examine the candidates you offer. ”
"Couldn't be more than happy. ”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Are we really going to use these people to form an adventuring party?" said the psychic Aisha, Muhadi's fellow disciple. She wore a plain, brown robe. Tattoos are painted around the eyes and cheeks with special ink to enhance the psionic effect. The braids tied on the head are coiled up and looped around the head. "No offense, Muhadi, but are they trustworthy. ”
"This is an extraordinary state of affairs and requires extraordinary measures. The Psychic Warlock said.
"Even in danger, don't trust the untrustworthy. Aisha said softly, barely audible Cheng Dù.
"Your tribe's proverb makes a lot of sense. Muhadi said with a sigh. "It's a pity that I can't afford to trust such a luxury right now. ”
"Then we don't take these people with us, and we'll go to Bartow ourselves. The girl said. "Maybe we'll be a little slower, but it's much stronger than relying on these succubi's men. ”
"I can't take you to face at least two Witch Kings without knowing anything about the environment. Muhadi explained. "Polis and Nibennay are moving ahead of us and we can't afford to delay too much. ”
"If you insist, then I trust your judgment. ”
"Let them come, we're going to talk to these brilliant adventurers. Muhadi instructed one of the Hellpurgatory Guards, who went to call the candidates who were standing a little farther away.
A thief came first, and strangely enough, he was a dwarf, with short pigtails and a fur coat that showed his chest hair. The Psychic Warlock didn't expect to fall out of favor and have such subordinates.
"I'll take it as if I've fallen out of favor and told you our name and identity. The Psychic said to the dwarven thief. "So you should understand that from now on, obey my orders, okay, what's your name?"
"Ogren!" said the dwarf cheerfully, bowing to Muhadi. "To this lady, my name is Oooo
"Very interesting, Oglen. The Psychic Stared at him. "Hopefully, playing tricks isn't your only thing. ”
"On the contrary, the lip is the most humble of all the amazing skills I have. "The dwarven thieves are foaming at the mouth. "Let me show you and your female companion in a more personal setting. ”
"You should think again about your Tiyì, Oglen. Muhadi said to him. "I'm a psychic warlock, and so is she. ”
"Forget it, they all say that psychic warlocks are crazy and terrible. The dwarven thief suddenly became interested, and then his face suddenly became serious. "Let me introduce myself again, I am Oglen, a thief, a foodie, a best-selling author, and a lover of beauty. I was also one of the suitors who fell out of favor, and she promised me that after I had completed this mission, she would seriously consider having dinner with me. ”
Is this one of the succubus' wrists?' Muhadi thought. "To be honest, I feel like I'm missing one point, which is that formally, I and Fall from Grace are a couple. ”
"Come on, you're not as good as a pet dog to her. Oglen smacked. "She's just using the formality to deal with the cleanliness of the upper planes...... Then again, you're a human being, she's a succubus, do you think you can outlive her? The human lifespan is just a fragment of life for a succubus, you can't take this form seriously, right?"
"Is the lifespan of a dwarf particularly long compared to that of a succubus?"
"No, of course not. But I don't want to marry her, I just want to spend the night together. O'Glen said indifferently.
"You're disgusting, Oglen. Aisha said.
"No, it's smelly stools or unappetizing eating that are disgusting. I, I make people love and hate. The dwarf patted his chest and reassured. "The first thief of the multiverse, like a fake. ”
"If you're really the first thief of the multiverse, then how come I've never heard of you?" Muhati skept.
"If even you have heard of it, how can you say that you are the first thief of the multiverse? There are good thieves and famous thieves in this world, but there are no thieves who are both famous and good. ”
"Makes sense, but soon we'll have a chance to test your true level. ”
In other words, appreciate my excellent skills. ”
The second disgraced henchman was not as pompous as the dwarf O'Glen, or rather, he and O'Gren were two extremes. He's a Barthez, a hell purgatory, and he's reticent.
From beginning to end, he answered the telemancer's questions almost exclusively with um, not two words. Even his own name, he only responded with um. However, Muhati is indeed a very powerful mage, although he is not as good as the witch kings, but his demonic background undoubtedly makes him familiar with Bato's situation.
In addition, compared to the witch kings of Atas, this self-proclaimed devil mage named "Hmm" has a special specialty, he does not need to squeeze life force from the surrounding environment to cast spells.
This made the psychic magicians wonder how power could come out of nowhere, Aisha seemed to feel a little incredulous, and asked the other party again. "You really don't need to drain life force to cast spells?"
"Hmm. ”
"But how is that possible? Energy can't disappear in a vacuum, and it can't be created in a vacuum. What is the source of your magical powers?" the female psychic asked.
"Nope. ”
"You don't know?"
"Nope. ”
"You're saying energy can be created out of thin air?"
"Hmm. The Devil Mage said, gesturing his hand to a symbol for zero.
Muhadi shook his head, believing that it was impossible. Aisha continued, "But this does not conform to the theory of one qiē that we know! If the record of the halfling in the Azure Age is correct, it is the four supreme gods themselves who have passed on this knowledge to the people......"
This time, the self-proclaimed "um" devil mage finally had a rare chance of saying more. "Energy is everywhere, you can call it the source, you can call it the zero. Our magic draws power directly from this source. ”
"Your so-called four supreme gods, the electromagnetic force, and the flow of gravity, are all the products of the imagination of the hillbillies of the main material plane, and there is no zài at all. The Devil Mage said flatly, and there seemed to be no change in emotion. "In fact, the concept of the four fundamental forces itself is a wrong object of study, and multiple elementary electrons cannot be at the same energy level, which is the principle of incompatibility, what do you think excludes them? Can entropy be attributed to any of the fundamental forces?"
The devil's words made the two psychic warlocks more and more confused, and they understood every word that the other party said, and it was difficult to understand when combined. "Hmm," he said, shrugging his shoulders. "That's what the main material plane buffet looks like, and he doesn't know anything about the world he lives in. The Devil of Barthez has a very different understanding of the world and the rules of society than yours, and you have wisely chosen to take me with you. Otherwise, it will be difficult. ”
"Wait until our adventure is complete. Aisha decided. "We must take the time to study the worldview of the devils. ”
"The history of the Badz Devil is millions of years, and its source is hidden in the mists of time. It would be a very difficult mission to study their worldview. The Psychic Warlock noted.
"But it's certainly worth it. ”
The other two men who fell out of favor didn't have the personality of the dwarf who fell to Oglon or the Butterz Devil Mage "um". They are all deep hell purgators, they know a little magic, but they can also fight, and in terms of strength, they are roughly equivalent to the human beings who have just entered the legend. Muhathir felt that although it could not be said to be perfect, such an adventurous team should be enough.
The City of Seals is known as the City of All Gates, and naturally there are many portals leading to the Bato Nine. However, the conditions for these portals to open are complex, some require a specific token, some require specific actions, and some portals can only be opened at certain times. As it happens, the portal to Bartow opens a day later, giving the psychic warlock time to buy some gear before he leaves.
It was at this time that he received a message from Mistara from the Grand Druid Camilla.
The message was transmitted using the psionic device he had left in Mistara beforehand, but it could only be received, not instantaneous. The content of the message was quite shocking, and when the mindmancer read it, he thought it was a little incredible.
"Today, the Witch King Malik and the Witch King Dralegos have led us to contribute two Mistara cities. All the dead were transformed into the undead. So instead of weakening, the power of the Great Army was strengthened. ”
"But the false god called Hanuman, the Monkey King, actually appeared again, and although he looked much weaker, it was really him. The Witch King Dragos struck him away with the corpses of dead demigods and divine dragons, but no one knew when he would return. ”
"A way has to be found to address this threat once and for all.
The Psychic Warlock agrees with this judgment, and an opponent who never dies and haunts must be addressed. But he had no idea how to eliminate Hanuman.
Luckily, the Great Druid himself came up with a solution.
"I had an incredible new presence in Mistara...... It turned out that the High Evolver had survived the battle with the Mistara False God, and not only that, but according to the information he left behind, he also showed a way to actually kill Hanuman. ”
"The High Evolutionary has left the world of Mistara, and since it was here that he first saw the existence of magic, the methods he uses to traverse the world have been greatly enriched...... He could be in any plane right now, and the only clue we can trace him is to check for creatures with traces of halfling's technological transformation. ”
"If you have any creatures that could be modified, please allow me to check them out. The Great Druid said at the end of the message.
His own adventure is about to begin, how can he have time to care about the Monkey King Hanuman's affairs? Muhadi thought, not to mention that the High Evolutionary might be hiding in any world now, where should he go to search?
Wait, I do seem to have seen a strange creature, which may have traces of technological transformation of halflings. And it's not somewhere else, or I've seen it in Seal City.
Cranial rats.
They look like normal rodents, but the brains are exposed. Their unique ability is that they can share their minds and even brain capacity with their nearby counterparts. A normal cranial rat is weaker than a hamster, but a large group of cranial rats can be unimaginably cunning when they get together.
And Muhati encountered a huge group of skull rats in the city of imprints, who claimed to be one.
