Chapter Eighty-Nine: Sinking Deeper and Deeper
That's right, Neville's idea is to use the Star God Fragment to create a Star Fighter like him.
Ever since he learned about the efficacy of the waters of the Lake of Divine Grace from Raven Roak, he had been vaguely thinking about it.
It's just that the Star Gods are jealous of the Spear of the Hunter in Spencer's hand, so they rarely come to the world in person, which has never given him a chance to put his ideas into practice.
Before, he strongly opposed the end of the stop, but in fact, he also had the meaning of taking the star god and obtaining fragments by killing the star god.
What he didn't expect was that Spencer's peace talks made the stars unable to sit still, but instead gave him a chance.
In this way, Neville began to select talents from his henchmen, armed them with Star God Shards, and then accelerated the excavation.
It's ironic to say that although Spencer's serious injury made Neville feel guilty, it was precisely because the other party was unable to take charge that he, the second-in-command, could act without consideration.
Originally, there were still five days left to reach the appointed time, but with the help of the mass-produced Star Fighter, it only took him three days to break through the bottomless abyss and the ant's nest tunnel.
At the moment when the two were connected, looking at the golden river gushing out of the pitch-black abyss, one of his cronies couldn't help but ask:
"My lord, what the hell is this?"
When Neville heard this, he glanced at the other party and said lightly:
"Have you forgotten what I said, this task is confidential, you just have to do what I tell you to do, and don't ask anything else."
Seeing this, the cronies hurriedly nodded in fear.
Neville then pushed the others away, and then stepped into the abyss again.
Falling in the pitch-black abyss, feeling the body temperature and energy constantly withdrawn from the body, this is definitely not a pleasant experience for ordinary people.
The first two times he stepped into this place, Neville's heart was also repulsive.
I don't know if it's because he accepted the power of the abyss, but this time he enjoyed the feeling of being surrounded by black mist.
Just when he was a little intoxicated, the voice of the old man of the tomb king sounded coldly:
"Well, it doesn't feel bad to embrace the abyss."
This sudden question startled Neville's heart, and instead of answering, he said:
"Tomb King, the cooperation has been completed, and I came to tell you that we have cleared the two."
"Neville, my friend, I like people like you who keep their word.
However, I don't think it's time to end the relationship. ”
Hearing the words of the Tomb King, Neville said with a wary expression:
"This is what we said before, are you going to regret it?
Tomb King, it's mutual to talk about credit, and I don't like people who don't count.
I can help you get through the abyss tunnel, and naturally I have the means to destroy it quickly.
If you want a lose-lose ending, you can give it a try. ”
Faced with Neville's threat, the Tomb King was silent for a moment, then responded with a smile:
"Where do you think, how can I do something that goes back on my word, I just want to work with you further.
To be honest, an ant nest underground tunnel doesn't satisfy me, the abyss needs to expand on a larger scale, and I feel like we can work together further. ”
When Neville heard this, he decisively refused:
"No need, I don't have anything to bother you with help with, let's stop here."
Seeing this, the Tomb King smiled disapprovingly:
"Hehe, Neville, do you think you can handle all the troubles, I'm afraid not.
The Maven Spencer was seriously injured, and the exile forces will face a joint counterattack from the Star God and the Ant Dynasty next, can you really handle it alone, can you bear to let this career that has been worked hard for many years be completely ruined? ”
Faced with the Tomb King's questioning, Neville was speechless.
The other party's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting him with a single blow.
Although he used the Star God Fragment to create an army of Star Fighters, the strength of those ant warriors was not far from what he once was, and at best he was on par with the Dragonborn.
Not to mention dealing with the star god with such strength, it is difficult to deal with the apostles.
If the Star Gods do fight back, their situation will be very difficult.
"Spencer's injuries were all caused by me, and I must not let his hard work be ruined on my hands."
Thinking of this, Neville bowed his head in compromise.
"Tomb King, you're right, our cooperation needs to continue."
…………
News of the Maven's serious injuries soon spread, and everyone felt that the burgeoning exile force was coming to an end.
After all, the only one in this force who really feared the Star God was Spencer, or rather, the Spear of the Hunter in his hand.
Having lost this advantage, this force is completely unmentionable, and no one feels that Neville alone can sustain the situation.
The dynasty, which had been waiting on the sidelines, has reverted to the Star God, and a great war against the forces of the exiles is imminent.
Just as the enemy was gearing up to wipe out the exiles, Neville personally led an army of ants into battle.
What is even more surprising is that this army is not only fearless to death, but also has the strength to surpass the apostles.
Although he is still a little weak in the face of the Star God, he often has to pay several lives to kill the Star God once.
However, this way of changing lives is not a loss at all, because the number of this unit has never decreased, and every time a soldier dies, a substitute will soon come up, and the combat effectiveness will not be reduced in the slightest.
With this force, the exile forces actually blocked the joint extermination of the Star God and the Ant Clan.
At this moment, Neville was completely remembered by everyone for his ability to turn the tide.
Once upon a time, even at his strongest, Neville remained unnoticed.
After all, Spencer and the Spear of the Hunter in his hand were too dazzling.
Compared to Spencer, Neville is very ordinary, no matter how outstanding he is.
Everyone once thought that it was Neville's talent that made him a star fighter.
Now they know how wrong they are, it turns out that the Star Fighter can be mass-produced.
Once it is formed, it is even more rebellious than the Spear of the God Hunter.
Some people soon discovered that the strength of the Star Fighters did not come from themselves, but from the weapons in their hands.
Upon discovering this fact, the enemy began to snatch the weapons of the Star Fighters in a targeted manner.
However, this tactic is simply not advisable.
Those snatched star weapons were in their hands, and they couldn't exert their due strength at all.
And as the star gods who participated in the war continued to be piled to death, the number of star fighters under Neville also increased.
Seeing that the enemy was retreating, Neville took a deep breath and roared loudly:
"Fearless in the face of a strong enemy,
Loved by our Lord and faithful.
Although it is difficult to die,
Protect the helpless without losing.
For the sake of my lord, for the sake of my homeland, the star fighters will fight back with me! ”
