With the main brain as the center......

Using the Mind Flayer's advanced psionic technology as a means of transmission......

Add to that the advanced cloning technology he received from Irenikas, and the souls of highly educated people from the world of Harry Potter after death......

The pre-technology necessary for the "Fourth Natural Disaster" plan has finally been lit up.

Although there is still a slight shortage in terms of the number and coverage of one-time access, it has been moved from initial trials to trial operations.

Anyway, it's hard to get started.

As long as you take the first bold step, the rest of the problems will not be a problem.

If the technology is not good, then invest manpower and material resources in research and development, and if the power of the main brain is not enough, find a way to strengthen the main brain, or create a new main brain.

In short, he believes that there are always more solutions than difficulties.

Only when there are more "people" in the floating city who have the ability to think and create, can the world destroyed by the terrifying magic plague once again ignite the fire of civilization, become prosperous little by little, and become a rear base that can be relied on.

You must know that relying on a few high-level lichs and a large group of low-level undead creatures with little intelligence cannot form and support the core of a "civilization".

This was clear to Zuosi from the beginning.

But unfortunately, the world where the floating city is located has been completely destroyed by the magical plague.

In particular, even if a large-scale search and rescue has been carried out, less than 10,000 people have been found so far, and no more than thirty of them have been sent to the floating city to receive systematic education.

Ordinary people with no magical talent are temporarily resettled in the port city of Hull, either to work in agriculture and crafts, or to undergo rigorous training to become warriors.

With these people alone, it would be difficult to ensure that they don't perish.

In particular, the birth of offspring by inbreeding can lead to a series of serious problems.

And the most direct way to solve all these problems is to inject some fresh blood into it.

Zuo Si has privately collected the genes of intelligent creatures from several planes, including Faeron, Zendikar, and Innistrad.

He even got a full set of technology from the spider goddess Rose to create dark elves and arachnoid elves, and he can completely use magic cloning to create a large number of intelligent creatures such as humans, elves, orcs, gnomes, halflings, dwarves, etc.

However, considering that the creatures created by cloning often become extremely dangerous, irritable, and unstable because they omit the growth experience from childhood to adulthood, as well as the process of learning and receiving education, if they are awakened directly.

That's why Zuo Si came up with the idea of letting those dead souls control these clones through the psychic power of the Mind Flayer.

After all, the smarter people are, the more unwilling they are to lose their lives.

All he has to do is sign a "voluntary" contract with these guys who are about to die or who are already dead.

Of course, the reason why this voluntariness is in quotation marks is that the contract, although it appears to have a choice, is in fact a choice.

There is no such thing as heaven and hell on that magical earth, there is no underworld and no death, and some are just forgotten little by little and eventually lost themselves over the long years.

It is believed that anyone who learns this truth will immediately forget Dumbledore's famous saying that "death is a great adventure", and will find a way to continue their life at all costs.

Even if this way of prolonging life is to let them hand over their souls to another devil to control.

Thinking of this, Zuo Si couldn't help but the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and said in a slightly self-deprecating tone: "I'm really becoming more and more like a hell devil." ”

"Nope! Great hosts! In my eyes, you have always been a great devil who can compete with those plane lords who are Asmodeus. ”

The little devil, who is a demon pet, flew in from the outside at some point, and his face was full of flattering and flattering smiles.

Although it has been left in the mage tower for a while, it has not been idle, not only wearing a dragon skin armor with magic resistance, but also wearing a magic ring with colorful light on all ten fingers, and a long dagger with a carefully crafted dagger hanging from its waist.

Obviously, this guy used the power and resources of the Mage Tower to build a lot of magic equipment for himself.

Although the level of enchantment is generally not high, each one is more insidious than the other.

The barb made of pure gold embedded in the tail actually hides a small device for injecting alchemy toxin.

Once you are scratched by this thing, you will instantly suffer the damage caused by two different toxins to your body.

Not only will it slow down a person's reflexes, speed, and movements, but it will also cause a terrifying blood clotting effect.

If you don't have an antidote with you, or a clairpriest or druid with antidote skills, you can lie down and wait for you to die.

Because of his eye of knowledge and magical vision, Zuo Si saw through the effect of all the magic equipment on his demon pet at a glance, and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth and commented: "You really have brought the two advantages of shamelessness and insidiousness to the extreme." ”

The little devil was not ashamed, but proudly touched his chest with one hand and bowed: "Thank you for the compliment." ”

"I'm not complimenting you." Zuo Si rolled his eyes angrily. "Tell me, what's the matter with coming to me?"

"That's right. At your orders, I took over the intel gathering in Askatra, the shapeshifters that had been secretly stuffed into the tavern. Through infiltration of the entire social level, some of these shapeshifters have discovered that in the shadows, there is a previously undetected force hiding in the middle of the Am's hierarchy. They call themselves ...... Sleeper! ”

As he said this, the expression on the little devil's face suddenly became very serious.

Because in its opinion, the fact that a mysterious organization can live in a city with the Knights of the Burning Heart, numerous churches of gods, and masked mages for many years without being noticed is in itself terrifying.

In addition, a lot of the information collected so far is very vague, and it is not even known who is the leader, how many members there are, and what the purpose of this self-proclaimed hidden organization is.

"Sleeper?"

Zuo Si touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

After a few seconds or so, he suddenly remembered that there was indeed such a secret organization in Ascalla, the capital of Am, but the real controller behind it was actually a group of mind slayer demons.

The purpose is also very simple, to control the powerful people in human society through psychic abilities, and then let them provide themselves with a series of materials such as slaves, living materials, steel, minerals, gems, and magical items.

In fact, this situation is not an exception, but a phenomenon that is common to almost all towns on the continent of Faeron that have reached a certain size.

Not to mention the surface world, they can even be found in the city of Mosoblay in the dark region.

For example, the octopus head that often appears in the Banrui family......

"Keep an eye on these guys, but don't be alarmed, I don't have time to deal with them right now." After a little thought, Zuo Si quickly made a decision.

On the one hand, the Mind Flayer who has become a "lurker" is too hidden in human society, and it is really not easy to dig them out.

He didn't want to do something like this that was time-consuming and laborious.

What's more, he has to rush to the deep well of the soul to create a god of his own.

On the other hand, these Mind Flayers are usually not very harmful, and they are not even as harmful as the Shadow Thieves Guild, which is supported by the Council of the Amm Six.

"I see, I know what to do."

The hearts of the demon pet and the master are connected, so the little devil instantly understood what kind of organization the "lurkers" were, and without saying a word, he turned around and flew out.

He must immediately inform his men to stay away from the "Hidden Ones".

If you accidentally get caught by the Mind Flayer, every minute will reveal all the secrets hidden in your mind.

After seeing the demon pet leave, Zuo Si immediately stitched back together the corpse of Angel Poison Core, which had been dismantled in eight pieces, and then took it and went straight to the teleportation room.

Halfway through, however, he was stopped by one of them, Isadora.

"Are you leaving again?" The girl took the initiative to ask.

Zuo Si nodded lightly: "Yes." I'm going to other worlds to do something very important, to create a god with my own hands. ”

"Can you take me with you?" Isadora asked after that.

"Sorry, not this time, maybe next time." Zuo Si refused without hesitation.

Because he really doesn't have the heart to take care of a troubled girl with a serious personality and psychology at the moment.

In particular, the one in front of her represents the absolute calmness and sanity of Isadora's personality, which is the most difficult of the four Isadoras to deal with.

"Okay."

The girl nodded slightly, and did not dwell too much.

After Zuo Si unleashed the power of the spark to open the portal to another world, she turned around and walked towards the deepest part of the mage tower's underground with a blank face, and it took half an hour to finally reach the snail ship hidden deep underground.

Since it wasn't her first time here, Isadora ignored the mind slayers around her and walked straight inside the spaceship, which looked like a living octopus.

When she appeared around the brainpool, the Mind Flayer who had reported to Zuo Si immediately raised his head and asked through the psychic connection, "Have you really thought about it?" You must know that once you choose to merge with the main brain, although you can still control your body through psionic technology, you are no longer human. What's more, without the sanity and calmness of your personality, the other three you will inevitably run towards the chaos camp after merging with each other. ”

"I thought about it. Since Soth needs a mastermind who will be loyal to him and never betray, let me be the mastermind. ”

The girl replied in the affirmative in a tone that did not show any mood swings.

"Admirable enlightenment!"

The Mind Flayer danced its octopus-like tentacles, and a hint of relief flashed in his eyes.

Obviously, the reason why the Isadora in front of her knew about the "Fourth Calamity" plan was completely deliberately leaked.

Or rather, the Mind Flayer sensed his master's hesitation in dealing with the mastermind, and decided to take matters into his own hands.

And the best way to solve this problem is to replace the consciousness of the original nascent mastermind with a person who Zuo Si absolutely trusts.

In the Mage Tower, apart from the summoned creatures and the strange things that got into Vermes's mind, there were only four Isadoras left to make Zuo Si absolutely trust.

On top of that, Isadora is a psychic and is born with no barriers to the Mind Flayer.

Coupled with his unique way of understanding the concept of "self", and the calm and rational character in front of him, it is even more suitable to become the mastermind than the Mind Flayer itself.

"When are we going to start?"

The girl looked up and asked in a tone of uncertainty that was not very sure.

"I'm making the pre-preparations, and I guess it's going to take a few days. You'd better prepare, I don't want anything to go wrong with the ceremony. The Mind Flayer excitedly gave the answer.

It firmly believes that as long as Isadora becomes the mastermind, Zuosi will inevitably increase his investment in psychic abilities, and even accelerate the promotion of the entire project, so as to make the entire race stronger.

In fact, replacing the consciousness of the existing mastermind with another consciousness is a very "rebellious" and taboo act, even among the Mind Flayer race.

Normally, only when the main brain has been severely damaged and the original consciousness is confused and missing, will the most powerful heart destroyer in the group choose to sacrifice the brain, and let it devour the originally damaged main brain through an extremely complex ritual.

But as a Mind Flayer who was made into a summoning card, serving the master, sharing worries, and solving problems came first.

The so-called mastermind is just a tool used to provide services to the master, and there is no reverence at all.

"Don't worry, this mastermind, who has just developed a faint sense of self, is unlikely to defeat me in a heart-to-heart encounter. I want to be the most powerful mastermind in all of Faeron and the multiverse, and make sure that Soth's plans can be carried out smoothly. ”

When she said this, the girl stared at the already large-scale mastermind in the brainpool, and there was no emotional fluctuation in her eyes.

As if it weren't a big deal for her to abandon her human identity at all.

Zuo Si, who had already left Feerun, probably never dreamed that as soon as he left with his front foot, Isadora had another "big surprise" on his back foot, and he was so crazy that he directly became the "strongest brain" without even saying hello.

Of course, even if you know, you don't have time to pay attention to it now.

At this moment, he was standing above the deep well of souls, watching the endless souls of the dead slowly move around the edge, quickly taking out the corpse of Angel Poison Core, and directly began to extract soul energy from the bottom of the deep well, continuously injecting this corpse without any signs of life and soul.

In less than a few seconds, the heart that had stopped beating again beat vigorously and powerfully.

And that's not all!

As more and more energy was infused, the wounds and stitches on the corpse's surface disappeared in a very short time, and were replaced by a living person who seemed to be in a coma or a deep sleep.

But in fact, this is nothing more than a "corpse" phenomenon that occurs because of absorbing too much soul energy.

Angel Poison Core didn't really come back to life, it was just a reaction to the soul energy of the residual divine power in his body.

Following the life creation magic he had learned from Sorin Markov, Zuosi took the vial of phoenix blood from his pocket and slowly poured it into the corpse's mouth.

Next Second......

A dazzling red flame erupted from the corpse in an instant, bringing light, heat, and a little warmth to the cold world of the dead.

In the bright flames, the corpse was slowly devoured, making the flames appear to burn even more vigorously.

After about a few hours, the violently burning flames finally condensed in mid-air into the shape of an "immortal bird" phoenix.

I saw that its whole body was completely composed of pure energy, and there was no entity at all.

In other words, in the burning process just now, Angel Poisoncore's corpse has been completely digested and absorbed by this flame and has become a part of it.

But that's not all!

Because it is easy to create something with the characteristics of life, what is really difficult is to create a powerful soul worthy of the status of a god from nothing according to one's own wishes.

Fortunately, this is a deep well of the soul, and the last thing that is lacking is soul energy.

Otherwise, just the step of converting magic into soul energy requires crazy consumption of sparks.

After all, when Sorin Markov created the archangel Avacyn, he used up half of his own strength.

As one of the Ancient Brigade Mages, half of his strength is not trivial, which shows how amazing the price Duan needs to pay to create a powerful soul.

Zuo Si didn't pay much attention to the phoenix-shaped flames floating above the deep well, but continued to draw more energy from below, and then raised his right hand to release the magic that created life.

Moment!

A hammer made of energy appeared out of thin air in the palm of his hand, along with an anvil.

Whenever soul energy is extracted, it will pass through this anvil first.

Zuo Si took the opportunity to pick up the hammer and hit it hard.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Every time the hammer struck, the souls wandering around the deep well of souls would hear a heavy thumping.

Since there is no sound in the afterlife, this sound actually comes from the resonance and tremor of the soul.

At this moment, Zuo Si looks like a blacksmith, constantly wielding a hammer to use soul energy as raw materials to make sections, and instilling the will, thoughts, and character he wants.

In the beginning, the forged soul was like a dough, incredibly soft, and with a little force, it could change its outward form.

But as time passed, and the beating continued, the "dough" began to harden and a vague human form emerged.

Similarly, Zuo Si's hand holding the hammer also looked scarred from the long forging, more than half of it was cut by the flying soul fragments, and in some places even exposed white bones.

But even so, he didn't have the slightest intention of stopping, like a robot that couldn't sense tiredness and pain.

Because forging souls is not like making magic items or even artifacts, you can stop and rest for a while when you are tired.

Quite the opposite!

The soul must be forged in one breath, and there must be no stagnation in the middle, let alone the luxury of resting or healing injuries, otherwise the forged soul will have very obvious defects.

This is an important point that Sorin Markov repeatedly emphasized when teaching the magic of life.

To be honest, Zuo Si sometimes really can't figure out what this vampire thought in the first place.

Obviously, he is an undead creature himself, and instead of studying necromancy and blood magic that is more suitable for him, he has embarked on a diametrically opposite path.

Of course, this is not to say that Sorin Markov's necromancy and blood magic are not powerful enough, but that he is several notches below his attainments in the field of life magic.

With curiosity about the life experience of this Ancient Brigade mage, Zuo Si finally completed the forging of soul energy at the level of tens of millions of people when his entire right arm was completely unconscious, and his right hand was almost bone.

When the last hammer falls!

The hammer and anvil shattered on the spot, bursting with a dazzling golden light.

And these golden rays were all absorbed by the soul that had just been forged in front of them.

After about two or three seconds, the newborn soul finally slowly opened its eyes and looked around with innocent eyes like a baby, with a curious expression on its face.
