The underworld.

The sky was gray, and there were tributaries of the River Styx everywhere on the ground, and you could faintly see the pale soul in it, which was constantly washing away its memories, and its face was slowly becoming flat and sluggish.

The wilderness is dotted with cities made of black granite and decaying earth, and the most massive of them is naturally the City of the Dead of the powerful god Kranwo.

The great wall of the unbelievers towered into the sky, and the souls of the many unbelievers wailed bitterly on it, and most of their bodies had merged into the wall, as if they were being swallowed by the wall.

In the world of the gods, the unbelievers are more terrifying beings than the infidels and devils and demon believers, and their souls after death will not be accepted by the kingdom of any god, and can only suffer eternal suffering on the walls of the unbelievers.

And these souls will not be able to convert to a god temporarily, and of course, the great Grim Reaper still gives them a final choice, although neither of these options is good, perhaps more terrifying than the Wall of the Unbelievers - the Abyss, or Hell!

At this time, only the Abyss and Hell are willing to accept the souls of these unbelievers and transform them into soul worms as a supplement for consumption.

The entire capital of the dead is dead and indifferent, full of the undead with dull faces, and even lichs rarely want to stay in this place.

Rumble!

Suddenly, a huge golden door opened, rippling with endless divine light.

The light of the gods, with its smell of purification and redemption, seemed to bring a ray of hope to the land, but it was not at all.

The undead exclaimed. Screaming, dodging the light of the gods.

Just a little golden afterglow. It makes some undead rush to avoid it, once they are touched. Even the soul will melt under the golden light.

That great majesty, and the glory of the gods, is not something they are qualified to face now.

The result of being forcibly sown is to completely disappear from this world, to cease to exist, to lose all imprints.

"Damn, it's a true god who has descended, and she's still the goddess of the magic net......"

At this moment, the entire city of the dead was in an uproar, and many were hiding underground, the Mage Tower. Even the lichs, demons, and demons in the cracks of the plane cursed and began to flee in a hurry, and the light of the portal shone throughout the city.

Mystra's figure stepped out of the golden gate, looking at the chaotic city, a meaningful smile on his lips.

"Mystra!"

A loud voice rang out from the center of the City of the Dead, and then a middle-aged man in a blue robe appeared in front of the goddess of the net.

The other party's appearance is very ordinary, and he doesn't look any different from the average middle-aged nobleman, but his eyes have a dark light, and he seems to see through everything.

A more powerful field of death. Haunt each other at all times, as if he is the master of death in the world!

This is the god of death!

"You're always causing me trouble!"

After seeing the rioting city, Kranvo's brows furrowed, and the realm of death on his body instantly transformed. It became a tranquil force.

A layer of protection spread across the realm in an instant, calming the turbulent undead and calming them again.

A variant of the Death Realm, the Realm of Eternal Sleep, has the power to protect and comfort. It is also the respect and protection of the deceased.

Cranvo has always been a neutral deity dedicated to the peace of the dead. and against spells that defy the laws of nature to prolong life, or to desecrate the dead and corpses.

A golden balance supported by an arm bone. It's his logo.

Of course, there are also rumors that he and Mystra, the goddess of the magic net, once maintained a very close relationship during the mortal period, but after their respective gods, this relationship gradually faded.

Although neither Mystra nor Cranvo admitted it, it is very likely that the rumors are true.

"Why are you disturbing the peace of the underworld?"

Cranvo stared at Mystra.

Their relationship is not as good as it used to be, not only because Cranvo hates spells and thinks that the power of them greatly disturbs the peace of the dead, but also for other reasons.

According to the secret speculation of many lichs and demons, this may also have a deep relationship with Mystra's raising of the old white face of Ilminster, and even with a mortal who gave birth to the Queen of the Silver Moon, Erasdra.

"For the god of killing, naturally...... Kranvo, don't you feel the slightest anger when the other party steals your power and covets your throne?"

Mystra sneered.

"A new god who has only comprehended the realm of death is far less threatening than Nephthys and Shagozhen......"

Cranvo fell silent, then replied slowly.

The people he mentioned were all gods whose priesthood involved death, and more importantly, they were all medium gods!

Comparatively speaking, the current Lei Lin has not even condensed the [Death] Priesthood, so naturally it is not much of a threat.

"Yes...... Mistra's face changed for a moment, and then he seemed to make up her mind, "Have you ever heard of it...... The legend of the Nightmare Serpent?"

"Is that what you have a hunch?"

After many exchanges of divine thoughts, Cranvo fell into a long silence before he said slowly, "For you...... I'm willing to help again...... Unfortunately, the camp and my original oath have made me have too many restrictions......"

Cranvo is a neutral deity, and even with the excuse of clerical conflict, it is taboo to attack the kingdom of a true god.

What's more, he can be sure that as long as he starts a divine war because of the priesthood of death, several other gods of death will instantly unite to resist him—no way, who makes him the most powerful and the most threatening?

"No...... All I ask you is ......"

A beautiful smile bloomed on Mistra's face, and she slowly said her purpose......

Soon, what happened in the underworld began to spread to Thunderlin's divine kingdom.

"The souls of our believers have been intercepted by Cranvo?"

Lei Lin listened to the report of his subordinates, his brows furrowed tightly, this is a more troublesome matter.

Believers believe in gods, and their souls will ascend to the kingdom of God after death, which is a God-man contract that cannot be violated.

However, there is a difference when it comes to implementation.

Generally speaking, the channels of faith formed by devout believers have enough power to draw their souls directly into the kingdom of the gods after their death, especially the Holy Spirit.

Once a saint dies, the gods will even take the initiative to open the kingdom of God, and promote the Holy Spirit before the other person enters the kingdom of God, becoming the most important arm of the gods.

However, the souls of ordinary believers, and the souls of pan-believers, must go through another procedure - go to the underworld, be identified by Cranvo, the king of the dead, and the unbelievers will be nailed to the wall of the unbelievers, and then the gods of the believers will be identified and handed over to the oracles who come to receive them.

This was a pact that the gods had signed with Kranvo when he entered the underworld, and thus determined the opposing party's neutral camp.

But once the other party turns his face, the current Lei Lin feels a little difficult.

After all, the devout and fanatical believers among the believers are still in the minority, and the ordinary believers and pan-believers are the absolute majority!

Once this basic disk is damaged, the damage to faith is not trivial.

Our oracle questioned him about it, but Cranvo didn't respond...... It was only through his subordinates that he made one condition, and only when my lord went to the underworld himself did the other party agree to release the souls of the believers......"

One of his heroes shuddered and prayed, and Leylin waved his hand to let them all leave, and then fell into deep thought.

In this strange thing, he smelled a strong smell of conspiracy.

"Step by step...... Don't even give me a little time......"

Lei Lin smiled bitterly, he wanted to recuperate now, but the other party didn't give him this chance at all.

Moreover, Cranvo has a clerical conflict with him, and even if he fights for it, it is difficult to say what is wrong with the other party.

He doesn't have any popularity among the gods at all, I'm afraid he gloates a little more.

"Luckily...... The number of believers in my mortal world is not large, and the basic plate is still the indigenous people of Bankz Island, which is directly within the kingdom of God, and the soul does not need to go to the underworld anymore......"

Leylin felt a little gratified.

To deal with any conspiracy and trickery, the key to breaking the game is not to follow the footsteps of the other party, otherwise the end will be extremely miserable.

Since Leylin judged that the other party's purpose was to lure him to the underworld, or to have a more violent conflict with Kranvo, he made up his mind to be a shrunken turtle and ignore these things.

What if your reputation is ruined, and what about the collapse of faith in the Lord's material world?

Anyway, his basic disk is in the kingdom of God, and he has nothing to fear.

What's more, he is essentially a wizard, even if he relies on faith to become a powerful divine power, what is the use?

When you are blackmailed, the more you show your attention, the easier it is to be targeted, and in the end, you will gain nothing, or even lose what you originally had.

And now Leylin is relying on his own wealth and is ready to spend it with Cranvo.

Of course, this kind of believer in the kingdom of God also has its shortcomings.

At least Leylin knew very well that believers living in the kingdom of God offered much less faith than in the main material world.

What is even more terrifying is that after a few generations, these believers will gradually become 'divine'—that is, gradually transformed into prayers, which is an irreversible process.

Therefore, although we know that there are benefits in the kingdom of God, the main source of believers for those gods is still the main material world. (To be continued.) )
