Chapter Seventy-Three: The Deadliest Threat
I'm sorry guys, I'm working overtime tonight, I just got home, and the update was late, ( ̄┰ ̄*)!!
..................................................................
"Gloria, do you love your husband?" the goddess of vengeance, who was lost in thought when she heard the words of the goddess of dawn, suddenly looked up and asked abruptly.
The goddess of dawn was stunned, and said inexplicably: "Aunt Deborah, why are you asking this?"
"Don't ask too many questions, answer my questions directly, Gloria. Nemesis said as she stared at her.
The goddess of dawn was dumbfounded the next moment, as if it was difficult to give a true answer to this question. After a while, she hesitated and said, "When ...... Of course, because he's my husband!"
"Will you live and die with him, or will you risk a possible fall for him?" asked the Nemesis.
"You're weird, don't ask these questions, okay?" said Gloria, a little embarrassed.
"It's very important, you have to answer me truthfully, you can't hide anything, otherwise you can't afford the consequences. ”
Seeing the serious expression of the goddess of revenge, Gloria also realized the seriousness of the problem, but she didn't know what made her so nervous. However, the person she trusted most in the divine realm was the goddess of revenge, even far more than her husband, and she was silent for a while before she whispered: "There is no affection between us, only the exchange of interests. I was united with him just to maintain my honorable position, and the person whom the God of Light loved back then was the goddess of ice and snow, not me. He chose me only because I had a group of loyal gods left behind me by my father, and he needed my influence to help him secure his position. For this reason, the god of light did not hesitate to coldly obey my terms, and framed Elise and caused her to fall. Such a ruthless person, do you think I will develop feelings for him?"
Unexpectedly, the Nemesis was not surprised, but nodded as a matter of course: "Well, then there will be no problem." Gloria. Come with me, I'll show you something. She swerved into the Black Forest, scumbling with the Staff of Curse. Gloria was a little confused, but she was familiar with the place. Without the fear and fear of the other gods, he took a few steps forward and helped the old woman into the Black Forest.
It was a strange place, a strange tree that seemed to be all dead and dark, with dry leaves and branches. It looked so real, but Nemesis and Gloria shuttled in as if they were phantoms, and soon disappeared.
Soon after they left, in the clearing outside the Black Forest, space suddenly distorted and rippled, and out of the void came a small bird with crystal white feathers and a faint luster, it flapped its wings and stayed for a while, tentatively approaching the Black Forest. Then he flew cautiously inside. It's just that when it encounters some weird trees...... Then it's not a phantom, it's a real thing.
Avoiding the trees, the snow-white bird flew not too far in, and suddenly the surrounding environment changed drastically, and by the time it realized that it was not good, it was already too late. A black curtain-like halo descended, trapping it. The goddess of dawn and the goddess of vengeance, who had just left, went and returned.
"Damn the God of Light, he sent the Bird of Light to follow me?" said Gloria, furious, and her heart chilled. I never expected that just because I was in the lower realm once, I let the God of Light secretly send the Light Bird to follow.
"It's better that way, Gloria. You don't have any extravagant expectations for him anymore, do you?" the Nemesis was happy, the wrinkles on her face widened, and she said with a smile, "Trust me, child. If my guess is correct, the mysterious god called Baroque that you encountered in the world of Sauron should have something to do with that thing underground. No matter how much the gods of light and the demons covet, they will not succeed in the end. Even if the protective power of the underground thing is exhausted, it is not something that the gods of light and demons can touch. Otherwise, your father, the Old God King, was much more powerful than the current God of Light and the Demon combined, how could he let the treasure go by his side and remain indifferent? It's anyone's. Greed will only lead to a catastrophe from which you will never recover. ”
"What the hell is that?" asked the Goddess of Dawn, finally unable to help her curiosity.
"I don't know. Unexpectedly, the Nemesis shook her head, with a look of remembrance on her face, and said, "This thing appeared from outside the domain so suddenly, and fell into the world of Sauron at an extremely terrifying speed. We, the gods of the sky, witnessed this scene with our own eyes, and as it landed, it was a hundred-mile-long purple serpent-like mythical beast that circled around it and burrowed into the ground. Such a terrifying shock force would destroy the entire Sauron Continent. But the purple divine beast actually gathered its strength and did not cause great damage to the world of Sauron, and even the creatures of most races did not know that this had happened. ”
There was no doubt that the purple beast was exactly the same as the purple dragon that the Goddess of Dawn saw in the baroque. Nemesis continued, "At that time, your father, the Old God King, led the gods into the world of Sauron to find out. But the purple beast stood still under the ground, and the gods couldn't get close to it except your father, and the terrifying repulsive power was still fresh in people's memories. In the end, only the old god king entered the underground to communicate with the purple divine beast, but when he came out, his face was gloomy, but he didn't say anything. It was only strictly forbidden for anyone to approach that place, let alone disturb the unknown beast. Not long after, the threat from outside the territory came, and your father commanded the gods of the divine realm to defend against foreign enemies, and unfortunately died outside. Fortunately, the threat from outside the territory suddenly retreated for some reason, and our Three Realms were able to survive intact. ”
Speaking of this, the old woman couldn't help but sneer: "What is absolutely unexpected is that the Three Realms that the Old God King protected with his life were almost destroyed by the God of Light and the demons. If he was still alive, he would definitely die alive. ”
These things are the oldest secrets, because most of the high-level gods in ancient times followed the old god king to die outside the territory, and the gods left behind could not touch the secrets of the high-level at all, so there were almost no people who knew about it. Only Deborah, the goddess of revenge, was entrusted by the old god king to protect his only daughter Gloria, so that he did not die in the war with him that year.
The Goddess of Dawn, who had heard of these secrets for the first time, looked horrified and incredulous, and said in a lost voice, "Why didn't you tell me earlier, and didn't stop me from uniting with the God of Light?"
"Child, this is for your safety. Deborah looked at the Goddess of Dawn lovingly: "Back then, all the powerful main gods followed the old god king to the extraterritorial defense of the threat, only the god of light, demons and a few others had ill intentions and concealed their strength to stay." Because it was so chaotic back then, we didn't pay attention to these things, and they succeeded. Even if I later saw through their ugliness, it didn't help. The Bright God coveted the power of the God Realm, and at that time you were still very weak and unable to maintain the position that the Old God King gave you. And I can't protect you myself. In the end, I can only keep this secret, and watch you choose the God of Light to be your husband. In this way, you will not be harmed, and you will be able to save the loyal subordinates of the Old God King from being purged by the God of Light to the greatest extent. ”
"How have I lived with such a shameless person for so many years?" Glauria muttered to herself. Her personality is indeed selfish, vicious, and jealous. But in the end, he inherited his father's bloodline, and he was still able to make the most correct choice in matters related to the safety of the place where he lived. It's disgusting to see people like the god of light who play tricks in times of crisis. The last trace of affection for the God of Light also vanished, leaving behind a deep disgust.
"Why did you decide to tell me this now?" Gloria asked, frustrated, Deborah.
"Because the purple beast has probably recovered, and this means that the threat from outside the territory will return again. Nemesis' words shocked Gloria!(To be continued.) )
