Chapter 316: Recruiting Allies (10,000 Words Asking for Subscription)
"Hold on! Who is not allowed to retreat! Whoever dares to retreat, I will kill him! ”
A cathar knight swung his sword and slashed a stinking corpse at the stinking corpse that swooped down, then roared at the ordinary soldiers who were rapidly routing.
Unfortunately, once morale collapses, it's almost impossible to recover in a short period of time.
What's more, at this moment, the cathars are not facing ordinary enemies at all, but a group of undead and corpse-embedded creatures who have no idea what death and fear are.
The latter, in particular, often look unusually tall and hideous, and the exaggerated giant weapons in their hands can dismantle several ordinary soldiers with a single blow, which is extremely murderous.
Coupled with the loss of the divine protection given by the archangel Avacyn, many of the original abilities to restrain evil have become unusable, so collapse is inevitable.
Lowly!
Wretched!
Weak!
Helpless!
At this moment, the collapse of most of the ordinary cathar soldiers, and the tragic situation of being hunted and slaughtered by undead creatures, is the truest portrayal of the human beings on the Innistrad plane in the face of dark and evil forces.
The only thing they could do but run away as best they could was to let out a desperate wail of despair before they died.
"Ahhh Come on! My little cuties! Kill all the living people who are in the way! ”
Looking at the sight of corpses strewn in front of him, Kisha, who was a ghoul shepherd, instead of feeling the slightest discomfort, became more excited and manic as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, constantly pulling the dead corpses back up, and then launching an all-out attack on the streets and houses of Thraben City.
It was not difficult to tell from that twisted and sickly face that her mind had ceased to be human long ago, but a monster in human skin.
Almost at the same time, Kiraf, who was the younger brother of the splicer, had already led a part of the corpse-embedded creatures to rush into the cemetery, and began to unscrupulously excavate the massive corpses buried there, his eyes revealing unparalleled excitement and fanaticism.
Thurpan is home to the largest blessed cemetery on the entire Innistrad plane, and the only place where buried dead people are not resurrected by the ubiquitous black death energy.
Therefore, anyone who has a little property will hope that he can be buried here when he dies.
Over the course of hundreds of years, the number of buried corpses has probably exceeded everyone's imagination.
But now, all of them have become a piece of fat in the mouths of this crazy sibling.
Obviously, in the eyes of Kisha and Kiraf, a living person is no more useful than a corpse.
If they could, they wouldn't mind killing all the living people in all of Innistrad.
"The humans of this world are really miserable enough, even if they are threatened by werewolves, vampires and demons all day long, and some strange madmen are often produced inside......
Zuo Si stood on the roof of a house, condescendingly looking at the tragedy that was happening near the city gate, and couldn't help but sigh.
To be honest, he really didn't understand why he ended up on such a path because he was a brother and sister who was born in a religious aristocratic family in Thraben City, and he had never been stimulated by the outside world since he was a child.
Could it be that this is also the effect of Innistrad's ubiquitous black mana?
Or is there something genetic flaw in the two of them, they are born cold-blooded or unable to empathize with others around them?
Or is it a natural antisocial personality?
Whatever the reason, the current cognitive and mental state of the siblings can no longer be called "human" at all.
"Are you going to kill them yourself?" The journal suddenly asked.
"Kill? No, that's a waste. Innistrad's Ghoul Shepherds are nowhere near as nimble as the Necromancers of Feeron, but their wide-ranging and unrestricted ability to manipulate and resurrect the dead does have merit. I'm going to capture this madwoman and send her to Floating City to be studied by Vanessa and other lichs as living experiments. ”
As he said this, Zuo Si curled the corners of his mouth and showed a chilling smile.
He believed that with Vanessa's current magical knowledge and technology, he would definitely be able to give the madwoman in front of him a taste of what it was like to "survive and not die".
The most important thing is that compared to the level of madness on the spiritual level, the lichs of Faeron can throw off the two siblings in terms of realm and pattern, I don't know how many times.
After all, playing with the soul is much more advanced than simply playing with the corpse.
Thinking of this, Zuo Si jumped from the roof with a deep leap.
At the moment when his feet just landed, he happened to see several soldiers who were being chased running towards him, followed by a large group of zombies who had come back from the dead.
However, unlike the low-level undead who moved very slowly and sluggishly, these zombies moved very fast, even running at speeds close to the limits of human physiology.
In the blink of an eye, one of the soldiers caught up and pounced, only to watch as the foul-smelling zombie pounced and bit his throat.
But the next second......
An invisible wave of energy swept through the entire street in an instant.
The zombie that was still dancing with its teeth and claws one second burst out of the inside with a dazzling red light in the next second, and then turned into a raging flame and quickly burned away.
Seeing this, the soldier who escaped death immediately rolled on the ground several times in fright, and when he got up and saw the spectacular scene in front of him, he finally couldn't help but open his mouth wide and show an expression of disbelief.
Because in front of him, as far as his line of sight could see, countless undead creatures had fallen to the ground at this moment, burned alive by some unknown force like zombies that almost bit him.
"Hair ...... What happened? ”
The soldier's hole violently enlarged, contracted, enlarged, and contracted again.
With his barren knowledge and insight, he could not comprehend this miraculous picture before him.
Not only him, but the rest of the soldiers who had escaped death also showed shocked expressions, and subconsciously stopped fleeing, and all of them set their eyes on the cathedral that stood at the highest point of the city in the distance.
You don't have to ask to know that they all attribute the sudden death of these undead creatures to the power of the archangel Avacyn.
But soon, the soldiers realized that they were wrong, and very wrong.
I saw that the madwoman standing near the broken city gate enjoying the killing and death found that there were so many fewer zombies under her hand all of a sudden, and immediately sent hundreds of corpses that had just been pulled up.
This time, the soldiers finally saw that it was a young man with a hood, holding up a piece of emblem engraved with mysterious symbols and words, and muttering some syllables they did not understand.
Immediately after, another invisible energy wave that was exactly the same as just now swept through the zombies.
In less than a second, the zombies exploded one by one, and like a blazing torch, they quickly turned into a pile of gray-white ashes.
Six Rings [Return of the Necrons]!
This is a magic technique dedicated to cleaning up a large number of low-level undead.
Although it doesn't have the best lethality against the undead like Sun Burst, it does have a large enough area of effect to affect multiple targets.
As long as the total health of the undead within the area of effect does not exceed the limit of the spell's damage, they will be destroyed in an instant.
Clearly, the Ghoul Shepherds of the Innistrad plane simply resurrect corpses and then drive them to their own service, and do not have the ability to augment the undead.
This also means that those zombies that seem to move very fast are actually not much stronger than the low-level zombies in the Faren Continent in terms of strength and vitality.
As a result, if it is swept away by the [Return of the Necromancy], it will immediately collapse completely.
"Huh? I seem to have found an interesting guy! ”
Kisha, who has always been in a crazy mental state, has not yet realized the seriousness of the problem, but instead regards the sudden appearance of Zuo Si as an object to play with, and immediately controls the army of zombies and corpse-embedded creatures, and quickly surrounds the entire street.
After confirming that the "prey" had no way to escape, she rode the gift given to her by her brother, the corpse-embedded creature holding a huge iron hook and named "Evil Smile", slowly approached, dragged her chin with one hand and asked, "Who are you?" Why do you want to destroy my toys? ”
But unfortunately, Zuo Si obviously didn't feel the need to communicate with this crazy woman, so he didn't even say a word of nonsense, and directly threw a [manipulating necromancy] to the "evil smile" holding a huge iron hook.
As a result, Kisha, who is a ghoul shepherd, soon discovers that the "evil smile" that was originally obedient to her words suddenly stretched out another hand to grab her, and then slammed her to the ground.
Bang!
Everyone only heard a muffled sound, and Kisha, who had just maintained the grace of a noble lady, had already slammed his face down on the ground.
Not only was the already somewhat torn black gauze dress torn to shreds, leaving the entire back, buttocks, and thighs completely exposed to the air, but the beautiful face was also completely disfigured under the fall.
The bridge of his nose collapsed completely, his teeth were half knocked off by the stone floor, and his mouth and face were covered with shocking blood.
One of the eyeballs flew out of its socket under the fierce impact, leaving a creepy bloody hole.
"Ahh!!!!!!!h
The unbearable pain made the mad woman finally cry out.
She struggled desperately to get up, picking up the deformed eyeball and stuffing it back.
But unfortunately, before her fingers could touch her eyeballs, she saw Zuo Si, who was close to Chi Qi, suddenly raised his foot and stepped on it mercilessly.
Poof!
The eyeball was instantly stepped on, and the splattered blood just happened to splash onto the former's face.
"No!!!!! Kill...... Kill him! Kill him for me! ”
Kisha, who had never suffered such a big loss, tried to command zombies and corpse creatures to launch a siege on Zuosi like crazy.
As a result, it took a long time to find that all the undead around him didn't even react at all.
No matter how much he tried to increase the power of necromancy, it didn't have even the slightest effect.
"Do you know why these undead creatures are out of control?" Zuo Si lowered his head and asked expressionlessly.
"For ...... Why? ”
The madwoman finally felt the taste of fear for the first time in her life, and her whole body began to shake slightly uncontrollably.
It was the first time she had encountered her necromantic magic failing.
"Because controlling the essence of undead creatures is never a simple manipulation of magic into their bodies like you do, but an attempt to control the soul.
Now that I've got their souls in control, your little bit of necromancy won't do anything.
My former mentor said that first-rate necromancers create life, and second-rate necromancers manipulate souls.
A necromancer like you, obsessed with playing with corpses, isn't even third-rate. ”
When he said this, Zuo Si did not hide his disdain for the crazy woman in front of him.
"That's great!"
With the crisp sound of clapping, Liliana slowly walked out of the dark corner, her tone full of approval and admiration.
Obviously, she didn't immediately return to her inn to rest after the two had finished talking, but to see what the siblings Kisha and Kiraf were up to.
You must know that her sister Kisha, to some extent, has also studied necromantic magic with her for a period of time, and is technically half an apprentice.
But who would have thought that he would hear such a profound and unique insight into necromancy.
Similarly, Liliana also realized that Zuo Si had said that she knew "a little" about necromancy, but in fact, it should be "100 million points".
Among other things, the mere act of quietly seizing control of the undead was enough to make any necromancer feel terrified and frightened.
After all, even she can't do the level of a first-rate necromancer to create life now, but stays at the second-rate level of manipulating souls.
"It's so late and you haven't slept yet? I've heard that staying up late is a life-and-death enemy for women, it can make your skin yellow, breakouts, crow's feet worse, and dull. Zuo Si teased in a half-joking tone.
Liliana spread her hands disapprerovingly: "Thank you for your concern, but I am naturally beautiful, and my skin will never appear in the situations you mentioned." Can you tell me who your former mentor is? ”
"Why, do you want to talk to him about necromancy? I'm sorry, it's too late, I killed him with my own hands, and I haven't been able to keep even the slightest remnant of his soul. Zuo Si bluntly interrupted the other party's delusions.
"You killed your own mentor?!"
Hearing this, Liliana's face suddenly changed slightly.
Because even for her, who is accustomed to selfishness and betrayal of her companions, the act of killing teachers is still a little too exciting and deviant.
In addition, her heart's evaluation of Zuo Si's danger level has also risen several notches.
But Zuo Si obviously didn't care about this, and responded in a casual tone: "That's right! I smashed his Lich Crate with my own hands.
Believe me, if you have such a mentor, you will do everything possible to kill him.
By the way, my mentor also killed his own mentor before he became famous.
In his world, this act of killing teachers is not only encouraged, but if successful, it also wins the applause of others around him. ”
"What a horrible place. Looks like you've been through a lot, haven't you? Liliana deliberately complimented quietly.
She didn't need to ask to know that she wanted to take this opportunity to extract more information from Zuo Si's mouth, so that she could better understand this mysterious person who held her soul and destiny in her hands.
But Zuo Si is not an idiot, he easily saw through the other party's careful thoughts, and said meaningfully: "Okay, let's stop here on this topic." Some things are not as good as you know the better, but the more you know, the more dangerous it is. Since you are not in a hurry to rest, why don't you help me go and bring Kiraf, who is digging a grave? ”
"Of course, it's just a matter of hands."
Liliana apparently heard the warning in Zuo Si's words, and immediately turned around and disappeared into a cloud of black smoke.
From beginning to end, she didn't look at the unlucky apprentice who was lying on the ground and struggling in pain.
About a few minutes later, Kiraf, who had also been beaten to the point that his head was broken, his nose was bruised, and his face was swollen.
Looking at this young man who was completely different from the crazy sister and always maintained calm and sanity in his eyes, Zuo Si ordered in a tone without a trace of emotion: "Tell me where the necromantic genius Lu Dewei lives." ”
"If I did, my sister and I would die, wouldn't we?" Kiraf asked rhetorically, looking up.
"If you want to use this as a bargaining chip with me, you're wrong. You're not qualified to negotiate with me, and there are plenty of other means I have to get the news. If you don't want to suffer more before you die, I advise you to say it directly. Zuo Si sneered and threatened.
Kiraf's face changed slightly, and his brain began to work at high speed, desperately trying to find a way to keep him and his sister alive.
But Zuo Si didn't have that much patience to play games with the two siblings here, and directly cast magic to search for their memories very roughly.
Moment!
Kiralf's screams echoed through the streets of Thraben.
By the time Zuo Si got the information he wanted, the genius splicer had completely turned into a self-conscious idiot, discarded on the streets like garbage.
His brain and spiritual world had completely turned into a pulp lake under the powerful magical power, and it was estimated that only the wishing technique could barely save it.
In contrast, her sister Kisha is in a slightly better situation, being thrown into a box dedicated to the living, and an endless stream of live experiments await her.
With both masterminds already eliminated, the army of the undead who poured into the city soon began to wander aimlessly, eventually being intercepted, killed, and expelled by the cathars.
By daybreak, the city had regained the area around the occupied gates, and relied on the walls to wipe out the undead outside.
Of course, none of this has anything to do with Zuo Si.
At this moment, he had already arrived near the prison cellar with Liliana, looked at the large, silver-glowing moonsilver, and it was a full minute before he spoke, "Do it." ”
"As you wish......"
Liliana gracefully stroked her chest with one hand, then ignored the magically controlled cathar knights and unleashed the magic she had prepared.
Next Second......
Rumble!!!!!!!!!!!
A blinding silver glow erupted from the middle of the moonsilver.
Before the others could react to what had happened, an angel with golden light shining all over his body appeared in mid-air, raised the spear in his hand and solemnly announced, "Good people who still hold fast to their faith! Your Guardian Avacyn is back! ”
As these words came out, many cathars and monks who had lost their ability to obtain spell-like abilities through prayer were surprised to find that their lost power had returned.
And that's not all!
The figure of the archangel also shines with the morning sunrise, shining the sacred and warm sunlight on the earth.
The undead creatures outside the city that had not had time to clean up before exploded from the inside under the illumination of these divine lights, and then began to spontaneously combust in a large area, and finally turned into a puddle of ash and scattered with the wind.
No doubt!
This is the archangel Avacyn created by the ancient brigade mage Sorin Markov with half his own strength!
A powerful being with the power and authority of a god!
The moment she appeared, the entire city of Thraben was in a frenzy.
Even the inhabitants who had just been frightened and could not sleep all night, as well as the cathar soldiers who had experienced bloody battles, took to the streets and knelt down to pray to the patron saint and savior of mankind.
As the saying goes, only after losing do you know how to cherish.
If the inhabitants of the city had forgotten how dark and terrifying their lives had been after hundreds of years of shelter, what had happened last night reminded them of all this, and they sincerely hoped that a similar situation would never befall them again.
Of course, with the vault shattered, it wasn't just Archangel Avacyn who escaped from inside.
There are also the hundreds of demons that she has captured and imprisoned before, and the traveling mage who has also been imprisoned in it for thousands of years, the lithomancer Nahiri.
Since Zosi and Liliana had discussed it before they made the move, the two of them went their separate ways, one to hunt down their "creditor" demon Thorn Ze, and the other to block the lithomancer Nahiri who was just about to flee back to her hometown of Zendikar.
"Who are you? Why are you stopping me? Nahiri narrowed her eyes and stared at Zuo Si, who was close to Chi Chi.
Due to the long-term erosion of the demon's chaotic and evil thoughts, she looked crazy and dangerous at the moment, and even occasionally flashed blood red in the original silver child's holes.
"Ma'am, please don't be so hostile. Don't forget, you were able to escape from that huge piece of moon silver thanks to me. ”
Zuo Si spread his hands and made it clear that he had no hostility.
He knew very well that the kor woman in front of him with short white hair was an ancient brigade mage who had lived for more than six thousand years, and was also the apprentice of Sorin Markov (although he later fell out), and he had some means to lure the Eldrazi to other worlds.
It's better not to be an enemy unless you have to.
"Oh? Did you break the cellar? ”
A look of surprise appeared on Nahiri's face, and the hostility on her face decreased considerably.
Zuo Si smiled and nodded: "That's right." I'm here to talk to you about the three Eldrazi Titans sealed in Zendikar. ”
"Eldrazi? Wait a minute! How long has it been since I was imprisoned? ”
It was only then that Nahiri noticed the city of Thraben beneath her feet, and the large population that lived around it.
You must know that when she was imprisoned by Sorin, there was nothing here but the boulder that shone with a silver glow.
"It's been a thousand years."
Without thinking, he gave an exact number.
Hearing that she had been imprisoned for so long, Nahiri instantly became furious: "What? A thousand years! Sorrin, bastard! How dare he do this to me! I swear! Be sure to give him some color! By the way, is Zendikar okay? Has the Eldrazi's seal been loosened? ”
"So far, everything is fine. Not long ago, though, I discovered that someone was trying to break the Eldrazi's seal, and it almost succeeded. Look, this is the Dragon Scroll, which seals the spiritual fire of the spirit dragon Ugin. As one of the three Ancient Brigade mages who sealed Eldrazi back then, you should be well aware of the two prerequisites for opening the seal. ”
As he spoke, Zuo Si took out the scroll and handed it to the other party.
You don't have to ask to know that he is dealing with Old Long Nico? Bolas rallied more allies.
"Damn! This is exactly the same spiritual fire that Ugin used! Who? Who wants to open the seal to destroy Zendikar? Nahiri's eyes gleamed with hatred.
Despite Spark's ability to planeswalk at will, most traveling mages have a strong affection for their homeland.
At least Sorin Markov was very fond of the small, weak, and barren Innistrad, not only creating the archangel Avacyn to maintain ecological balance, but also insulating the threat of dark void creatures like the Eldrazi.
Nahiri, who was greatly influenced by Sorin, also loved her hometown very much in her bones, and single-handedly guarded the seal for thousands of years.
When she hears that someone wants to unleash the Eldrazi to destroy Zendikar, she reacts violently.
But this is precisely the result of leftist thinking.
"Nicol is behind all this? Bolas, a powerful and terrifying elder dragon mage. As far as I know, he seems to be plotting a plot that will cause irreparable doom on several planes, and Zendikar is one of them. In order to fight against it, we need to unite more men and give him a fatal blow at a critical moment. ”
Zuo Si didn't hurry to take out the words he had prepared in advance.
Uniting more and more powerful Brigade Mages, this is how he can deal with the threat of the old dragon at this stage.
Especially with these powerful Ancient Brigade mages, it's best not to leave any of them behind.
"Nicol? Bolas? I'd love to hear that name......" Nahiri narrowed her eyes and fell into deep thought.
But before she could sort out her messy memories, Zuo Si added first, "Nicol? Bolas is Ugin's twin brother, but their relationship is an enemy. ”
"Ugin still has a brother?"
Nahiri was instantly shocked by the news.
Zuo Si nodded slightly: "Yes." Pretty surprising, right?
But in fact, I have even more shocking news here, Ugin has been killed by Nicol thousands of years ago? Bolas killed.
That's why, after sealing the Eldrazi, he hasn't been seen again.
Right now, Ugin's soul is guiding the chosen ones to resurrect on the plane of Tarkir.
Believe me, ma'am.
Nicol? Bolas is definitely one of the greatest threats to Zendikar and the entire multiverse. ”
"Well, I agree to accept your invitation. However, there are some things that I need to confirm myself. ”
Nahiri apparently wasn't quite convinced by the explosive news.
Because thousands of years ago, she had witnessed firsthand how powerful the magic power of the spirit dragon Ugin was.
Even the Eldrazi Titan, who had devoured countless planes and planes, was trapped in the face of the magic that this guy cast.
So Nahiri was still a little afraid to imagine who else could take down such an invincible Dragon Brigade mage.
"Absolutely." Zuo Si made a gesture of please.
The lithomancer didn't even say a word of nonsense, and in an instant, the power of the spark was activated and disappeared in place.
It doesn't take a guess to know that her first stop will be to return to Zendikar to check on the status of the Eldrazi seal.
Shortly after the lithomancer left, the vampire Sorin Markov arrived.
Because whether it is the reappearance of the long-missing archangel Avacyn, or the bombing of the prison cellar, it is a top priority for him that must not be sloppy.
However, what the vampire king didn't expect was that instead of waiting for Nahiri to take revenge on him, he waited for a young human who he had never seen before.
"Who are you? Why break the vault? Sorin asked, staring at those oppressive eyes.
"My name is Soth, and as you can see, I'm a novice brigade mage. As for why the prison cellar was broken, of course, it was to free Archangel Avacyn and Lady Nahiri. ”
Zuo Si did not choose to lie or deceive, but generously stated his purpose.
After all, Sorin is a vampire who has visited countless planes and lived for more than 10,000 years, and playing smart in front of such a guy is basically equivalent to lying in front of the gods, and the results are disastrous.
"Avacyn trapped in the vault?"
Sorin frowned instantly, and cast his gaze on the shining golden figure in mid-air.
But he soon realized that Zuo Si was right.
It was only when he was imprisoned in the prison cellar that he could not sense the existence of this "half-body".
After figuring out the whereabouts of Avacyn's disappearance, Sorin immediately focused his attention on Nahiri again, touching his chin and continuing to ask in an interesting tone, "Why did you release Nahiri?" If I'm not mistaken, she doesn't seem to have any human friends. ”
"You think I released Lady Nahiri for the sake of so-called friendship?" Zuo Si raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Isn't it?"
The corners of Sorrin's mouth rose slightly, revealing two sharp fangs.
Zuo Si shook his head slightly: "No, of course not. I released Ms. Nahiri because of a problem with the Eldrazi Seal in Zendikar. Someone is trying to break the seal and release those three terrifying monsters from the Dark Void. ”
"Breaking the seal?"
When Sorin heard the news, his original smile instantly froze on his face.
"Yes. This is the scroll I got from a traveling mage in the Eye of Ugin, and I'm sure you should be able to easily recognize what it does. ”
As he spoke, Zuo Si handed over the dragon scroll again.
This is one of the few things that can make him trust the other party.
After all, the flame used by Spirit Dragon Ugin was so special that it was almost impossible to replicate it 100% successfully.
As expected, the moment Sorin opened the scroll, his face changed from cynicism to solemnity: "Tell me the details!" How many Brigade Mages were there at that time? ”
Zuo Si quickly replied, "Not counting me and my companions, there are exactly three." One of them is a stealer of the scroll, the second is a pursuer, and finally a crazy guy who is clearly mind-controlled. As far as I know, all three of them have been manipulated to varying degrees, and all of them are pointing to Nicol? Bolas, Ugin's brother. ”
"Nicol? Bolas? It's him! ”
Unlike Nahiri's ignorance, Sorin had clearly heard of the sinister and cunning old dragon, and his eyes instantly burst into a terrifying glow.
】
"That's right. In order to prevent things from going in an irreparable direction, I think it is necessary to unite more Brigade Mages to prepare for confrontation with them. Of course, not only Ms. Nahiri, but I hope you will join in the fun. Nicol after all? Bolas's conspiracy involves more than just Zendikar, and Innistrad isn't immune. ”
Zuo Si once again used his eloquence to be alarmist, wanting to drag the powerful vampire in front of him into the water.
Because he knew that the other party might be able to ignore Zendikar's destruction, but he would never tolerate his hometown of Innistrad being reduced to nothingness.
Sorin narrowed his eyes and pondered for a long time before raising his head and saying, "In principle, I agree to join this alliance, but I won't listen to your command of what to do. ”
"I've never had the delusion to command someone else, but I'm just playing a role as a matchmaker in the middle, putting everyone who dares to stand up against Nicol? Bolas's Brigade Mages are all together. In addition to this purpose, I have a small personal request that I hope you will grant. ”
As he spoke, Zuo Si stroked his chest in a very humble gesture and bowed deeply.
"Oh? What is it? An interested look appeared on Sorrin's face.
Skilled in blood and life magic, he could clearly feel the amazing energy contained in the very young-looking human body in front of him, which was a little too much even for a traveling mage.
Zuo Si raised his head and looked at the archangel Avaxin in mid-air, and said with a smile: "I want to worship you as a teacher and learn the magic of life and creation." ”
When Sorin heard this, he was slightly stunned at first, and then held his forehead and laughed unscrupulously: "Hahahaha!" Interesting! It's so much fun! Worship me as a teacher? Don't you want to create your own angel? ”
"Angels? No, I intend to create a god. ”
Zuo Si said in a very calm tone the arrogant ambition hidden in his heart.
Because the moment he saw the archangel Avacyn, he already knew what to do with the energy that had accumulated in the deep well of his soul for an unknown number of years.
If Sorin Markov can use half of his own strength to create angels with demigods or even full god powers, why can't he use hundreds or even thousands of times more energy to create a living god?
And as far as Zuo Si knows, the life and death of this artificial life is firmly in the hands of the creator himself.
"I love your madness! Youngster! I've been busy lately though, and I don't have much time to teach you, so you'll only have three days. In three days, you can learn as much as you can. ”
Sorin obviously sensed that Zuo Si was not joking, but serious, so he decisively gave a very short deadline.
Obviously, he didn't really want to teach these unique magics, but just wanted to see the young people in front of him look anxious during the learning process.
It's a bad thing, and I've done it more than once when I've been teaching Nahiri.
But unfortunately, Sorin didn't know that Zuo Si, who had a thinking library and an eye of knowledge, had no more terrifying learning ability than a wild-born spellcaster like the lithomancer Nahiri.
The gap between the two may be as large as that of modern humans on Earth and ancient Homo sapiens.
In fact, most of the traveling mages are halfway monks, have not received systematic magical education at all, and basically rely on sparks and talents to continuously strengthen a certain ability.
As a result, they tend to be good at only one type of magic, such as Nahiri's lithomy, Chandra's fire magic, Nissa's natural magic, and so on.
But left thinking is different.
From the very beginning, he received a systematic education in magic, especially the vast amount of magical knowledge he acquired in Feren, covering almost every aspect.
Under the accumulation of this massive amount of knowledge, he will not limit himself to a certain field, but will choose to do it all without hesitation.
Just when Sorin and Zuo Si reached an agreement, in a forest dozens of kilometers away, Liliana finally caught up with her "creditor" - the demon Thorn Ze.
However, unlike the last time we met, when the enemy was strong and I was weak, this time she relied on the power of the [Chain Veil] to easily flip the other party to the ground.
At this moment, this once arrogant demon is kneeling on the ground like a clown begging for mercy.
"Spare me! Please! I could swear to give up ownership of your soul! Even willing to be your slave! ”
"Spare you? Swear? Hehe, that's funny. I've heard that the devil's oath can't even be trusted with a word. Sorry dear, as much as I would love to spare you, the problem is that it really doesn't work this time. ”
Liliana stepped closer, reaching out and gently caressing the severed pair of sharp horns on Thornzawa's head, her tone revealing a hint of pity.
The moment her fingers were removed from the broken horn, the demon suddenly felt an incomparably powerful force suddenly pinch her heart, and then squeezed it tighter and tighter......
The heaviest thud exploded inside, and he fell to the ground with convulsions and swallowed his last breath.
Looking at the corpse of the demon lying on the ground, Liliana took out a bag and filled it without saying a word, and then cast a teleportation spell and disappeared in place.
Next, she needs to hand over Thornze's corpse to Zuo Si so that she can resurrect it again when she needs to, and become a "creditor" who controls her soul.
