Chapter 409: The Result of Training (10,000 Words Big Chapter Subscription Request)
The capital of the merchant empire of Amm - Askatra.
Since the return of the goddess of wealth, the church, merchants, and people here have been holding revelries for weeks.
Whether it is the six-member council, which is the highest authority, the upper ruling class that has taken root here, or the common people from below, they are now immersed in an atmosphere of joy and cannot extricate themselves.
Because the patron saint they relied on and worshiped the most had finally returned.
And after disappearing for so many years, the incarnation image that came to the celebration is still so beautiful and extravagant, and the divine power and influence have not faded too much.
The only regret for the people is that as the absolute "protagonist" who contributed the most in this dangerous rescue operation in the triple realm of Grazt, which is deep into the bottomless abyss, and is also the pride, protector and greatest hero of the city under his feet, Soth has never shown his face from beginning to end.
On the contrary, those "supporting actors" frequently showed their faces at the celebrations, enjoying the compliments and praise from the Goddess of Wealth Church and the government, as well as the rewards awarded by the Goddess of Wealth himself.
Of course, this is not to say that the people of the Gold Capital are not grateful, or that the elect and messengers of these gods have contributed too little.
They are just fighting for Zuo Si.
After all, in the eyes of the people, the other members of the team are "outsiders", but Zuo Si, who has settled here, is "his own person".
Some merchants and aristocrats even spontaneously organized a so-called "Thanksgiving Donation" event.
The family's treasured magical items, materials, magical flora and fauna, and strange objects were brought into the Mage Tower as gifts.
Because Zuo Si's interest in this kind of thing is far more than gold coins, it has long been a well-known thing for the entire Amber people.
Sean VII's simulacrum clone of the Masked Mage's Guild, Zelanora, was now standing on top of the tower looking at the lively scene on the streets outside, and whispered in a voice that only he could hear: "Enter the abyss to challenge the dark lord Grazt, rescue the goddess of wealth and hold gold?"
He even summoned a terrifying monster from the Dark Void that could devour everything and destroy everything, the Eldrazi.
Soth, my young friend, you're getting bigger and bigger.
But it just proves that I made the right choice.
As long as you have the power of the Brigade Mage's Spark, you have everything.
As for the price to be paid for this, it is simply insignificant compared to what is obtained. โ
Just as the simulacrum clone was about to cast a detection spell or wishing spell to try to confirm Zuosi's location, the closed door was suddenly pushed open.
Then a middle-aged man wearing his trademark gray robe and hood walked in from outside.
It is not difficult to see from the badge he wears that his status in the Masked Mage Guild is quite high, second only to those archmages who are at the pinnacle of power, and he is even eligible for independent rooms and laboratories in the headquarters.
But in front of Shane VII, this mage with a high status still showed great humility, and took the initiative to bow his head and bow deeply.
"Master, as you commanded, I have given it to Vera Salem Quante.
If nothing else, she should choose to do it within three days at most.
At that time, Am's most powerful family, the Salem Quant family, who are also the de facto masters of the Masked Mage's Guild, will become your playthings and puppets.
The souls of those who have died will be distorted by the corrosion of the Orb of Death.
Unless it's the wishing spell of the Nine Rings, no arcane or divine spell can revive it. โ
Hearing this, Sean VII immediately turned around with a satisfied expression.
"You're doing a great job.
Remember, 100% sure that the patriarch of his family, Selzer Salem Quant, who is also the leader of the Council of Six, is captured alive.
Only in this way can you get that magic contract and become the true master of the Masked Mage Guild. โ
The man hurriedly nodded vigorously: "Understood!"
Rest assured, I'll personally lead a raid with your undead minions.
No matter what cards Selzer Salem Quant has, this time it will be doomed.
But I don't quite understand, why would you choose to do it during such a sensitive time?
Knowing that the incarnation of the Goddess of Fortune is still in the Temple, our actions are likely to provoke a violent reaction from the Church and the Paladins of the Knights of the Burning Heart. โ
Sean VII replied meaningfully, "Because the value of the country of Amm and the Masked Mage's guild is constantly depreciating in the eyes of Soth.
I have to make sure that the value of these two things falls into his hands before the bottom line falls, or everything will become meaningless.
It's like if you have a large sum of money in your hand, and giving it to someone who only has a few tens of thousands of gold coins will give it to someone who has a few million gold coins, and the effect will be very different.
What's more, isn't there a crazy, ambitious woman like Vera Salem Quant as a scapegoat?
When the time comes, if it really can't be done, I will directly arrange for her to die at the hands of the Knights of the Hot Heart.
The remaining five guys of the Council of Six will soon be impatient to conclude when they realize the seriousness of the problem.
After all, for them, how to ensure that the regime and society do not suffer from violent upheaval after losing their leader is the top priority.
As for the goddess of wealth, the goddess of gold, and her church, they would not be involved in such a thing at all. โ
"I see, I think I know what to do."
With that, the man once again touched his chest with one hand and bowed deeply, then turned and disappeared into the end of the hallway outside the door.
Less than a minute after he left, Shane VII turned around and bowed slightly to the figure on the balcony that had just descended from the sky, radiating a bright golden light from head to toe, and took the initiative to greet him: "Welcome, noble goddess of wealth. โ
"Hello, the last legitimate emperor of the ancient Shane Empire."
Holding Jin responded with kindness, and at the same time stepped into this exquisite room that exuded the unique aesthetic of the Moon Elves.
"I don't know if you have a sudden visit, is there anything you need me to help?"
Sean VII watched the goddess cautiously and tentatively.
Although he didn't think that the other party was here to trouble him, he subconsciously raised his guard against the instinctive fear of the god's powerful power.
But Zhijin shook his head slightly, and said straight to the point: "I found out that you and your subordinates are plotting against the Salem Quante family, and then seize control of the entire Masked Mage Guild and even Am. If you don't mind, can you tell me that you are planning to restore the territory and territory of the Shane Empire? โ
Realizing the Goddess of Wealth's intentions, Sean VII immediately laughed and explained, "Yes and no.
I am indeed restoring the territory and territory of the empire.
But not in the way you think.
Quite the opposite!
I intend to unify the Carlinshan and Tesseres in the south myself, and the regions of Am, Baldur's Gate, and West Hartland in the north by Thus.
Finally, through marriage, let him become the ruler of this vast empire. โ
"So...... Are you seizing the reign of Amm for Thos? โ
A look of surprise appeared on Kinkin's face.
Although after she returned, she had already learned that the "Necromantic Emperor" in front of her had joined forces with Zuo Si to carry out a series of big moves in the south.
But I never expected the relationship between the two to be so good.
"That's right!
This is the promise I made when I tried to win him over my sworn enemy, Ivy Korazaglan.
Now it's finally time to cash in.
Why, do you and your church want to be a part of it too?
Or are you against it? โ
Sean VII asked quietly.
Holding Jin elegantly covered his mouth and responded with a smile: "No, you misunderstood.
I didn't mean to intervene, just a little curious.
In addition, if Soth were to rule Am, not only would I not object, but I would also be able to provide some necessary support.
After all, he didn't just help me get out of prison, he also taught Grazt, a treacherous demon, a lesson that he will never forget.
Moreover, a strong and unified empire will promote the prosperity and development of trade, and a stable society will facilitate the accumulation of wealth.
Most importantly, I think a lot of Soss's ideas in the business world coincide with mine.
If your plan succeeds, then my followers and influence will surely increase greatly within his rule. โ
Hearing the goddess of wealth say this, Sean VII immediately relaxed a lot, and then teased in a half-joking tone: "This is exactly what I want to say."
Soth is a very special and interesting person.
He seems to have an innate gift for easily seeing through the deepest desires of others, and can always prescribe conditions that no god can refuse.
Even the god of justice, Tyr, the god of loyalty, Thom, the god of courage, and the god of suffering, Yinermat, who are diametrically opposed to him, can live in harmony with him and even cooperate in depth on a large scale.
Although Soth himself did not believe in any gods at all, he was deeply loved by many gods. โ
"Yes!
What god would not want to have a powerful elect who can bring great benefit to him, or even a deeper interpretation of the priesthood and doctrine.
It's a pity that there is only one South.
And the goddess of magic and the goddess of poison and disease standing behind him are not very easy to mess with.
But it doesn't matter, there are other ways to build a friendship and a good relationship with him, don't you think? โ
Holding the gold stared meaningfully into the eyes of Sean VII.
The latter immediately understood and took the initiative to bend down and salute: "This is my honor." With you and your church's help, I think this operation will definitely become easier and smoother. โ
Now let's talk about the specific steps. You must know that there are many gods staring at Ascatra now, and we must be extra careful. โ
With a slight wave of his hand, he projected a list of the entire top ruling class of Am's ruling class, and their inextricable ties to the Salem family, directly on the smooth white wall.
The countless people who were still celebrating the return of the goddess of wealth had no idea that a conspiracy and storm were coming.
โฆโฆ
On the other side, Zuo Si, who had just activated the clone stored in the mage tower, was teasing those cute animals covered in fur in his "happy house", relaxing his tense nerves by the way.
In particular, the white bear cubs, which are animal companions, have grown up several times after not seeing each other for a while, and many of their movements look clumsy and cute, which is very funny and cute.
A sub-adult tiger with black stripes wanted to get close to its owner and make out with its owner, but it slapped it and knocked it to the ground, fully demonstrating its unshakable status as a "bully" in this group of animals.
Although the tiger looks bigger and stronger, it is obviously far inferior to the white bear that is already "weird" in terms of body structure, and it has also been blessed by the legendary Druyin's natural power.
Just when this guy was sitting on the tiger's head and was proud, he suddenly felt a gust of wind coming from behind him, and immediately turned his head in fright.
It turned out that Zuo Si, who was the master, was staring at him with a very strange look.
"WellโI said Atio (White Bear's name), are you old enough to cut your eggs?" Zuo Si touched his chin and asked with interest.
The excitement in his eyes suddenly made the white bear cub clamp his legs and shake his head desperately.
Cut eggs?
Are you kidding!
This is the dignity and pride of being a male.
I also hope to find a few more female bears to breed in the future.
But Zuo Si obviously didn't intend to let Atio go easily, so he immediately got up and walked closer, touched the white bear's head and continued to comfort in a demagogic tone: "Don't resist so much.
Trust me, cutting it off early is actually good for you, too.
Without these two things that get in the way, you will have no Achilles heel, let alone estrus every year, and you will lose that low-level desire to reproduce, and you can focus all your energy on training and cooking.
And my craft is really good, I guarantee that it will be cut cleanly and will not hurt at all. โ
With that, Zuo Si picked up the cutting and dissecting knives placed on the table, and made a gesture out of thin air, which instantly frightened the white bear cub to tremble, and constantly let out a whining cry from his mouth.
You don't have to ask to know that this is some of his unknown little habits.
In his early years as an apprentice in the Tower of the Floating City, Zuo Si used to plague countless experimental rats in order to practice his "craft".
Since these rats have other uses, he can't dismantle them, so he can only idle and cut off the "lychees" of the rats, and then peel and disassemble them to ensure that this series of complex and delicate operations can be completed without harming the organs.
During that time, all the mice in the entire mage tower were basically fathers-in-law who had no eggs.
For this reason, Zuo Si also earned the nickname of "Egg Breaker".
Many male apprentices will subconsciously snort after seeing him, and then the lower half of their bodies will have a slight phantom pain uncontrollably.
Over time, he also developed a special habit, that is, when he saw the big fluffy "lychees" on the animals, he couldn't help but want to cut them off.
At the height of his illness, even the male cats, male dogs, and other male animals passing near the location of the Mage Tower were captured and anesthetized.
Then he was sterilized directly without knowing it.
Among them, there are some low-level mages' pets......
Later, some mages couldn't bear to come to the door, and Zuo Si himself was personally warned by Asta, which became a little more restrained.
But now, the two fluffy and bright big "lychees" of the white bear have aroused his soul of breaking eggs.
Just when one person and one bear were stalemate, a red figure suddenly appeared in the room, it was Vermes, who had transformed into a human form.
When she saw the strange postures and movements of the first two, she immediately asked with a puzzled face, "You...... What's going on? โ
"Ahh It's nothing, I'm just discussing with Atio if I can cut his lychees and save them from estrus every year in the future. โ
Zuo Si hurriedly got up from the ground and pretended that nothing had happened.
The white bear cub on the side was obviously relieved, and hurriedly ran out of the room and disappeared into the intricate corridors of the mage tower.
"Cut the eggs?"
Vermes raised his eyebrows in disbelief, and the look in his eyes seemed to say, "Are you a pervert?"
"Ahem......
This is a necessary measure to avoid the animal being too impulsive, irritable, and aggressive during estrus.
After all, in the future, Artio will often follow me in and out of some densely populated cities or important occasions.
What if it accidentally hurts or even kills someone once it is in heat?
Something like this is best addressed directly to the root cause. โ
Zuo Si forcibly explained with a straight face.
He obviously also knew that his penchant for splitting eggs was really not good, so he decisively chose to cover up the truth.
Anyway, the white bear cub can't speak, so there is no need to worry about leaking out.
However, Vermes obviously didn't believe a word, but he wasn't interested in it, so he didn't delve into it, but casually threw a ring in the shape of a skeleton over, and said bluntly: "Here, this is what you asked me to investigate what the leader of the gang was wearing." โ
"The Ring of the Church of the Dark Sun?"
With just one glance, Zuo Si immediately recognized Ciric's unique emblem.
After all, there are not many gods in Faeron who use skeletons as markers, and usually the priesthood is related to death.
Among them, the god of murder, Baal, inherited a part of the priesthood of death, so his emblem is surrounded by a skeleton and blood spots.
The second Grim Reaper, Mirko, is a triangular figure with a skeleton and red eye sockets.
Ciric, who has now inherited all the power and priesthood of the three gods of death, is marked by a combination of a skeleton and a black or purple sun.
Although the main figure is a skeleton, it is easily recognizable to people with a certain amount of religious knowledge and common sense.
What's more, the current Mithril ring carved in a hollow way is a symbol that only high-ranking members of the Shirek Church are qualified to wear, representing their identity and status.
Not only can it add an additional five-ring magic slot, but it also permanently blesses [Protective Kindness] and [Elemental Shield].
"That's right! The sneaky ones who are converging on the Fort of Santil are almost all members of the Darksun Church.
There were so many of them that they seemed to have received the same oracle, which is why there was a large gathering.
Moreover, during the prayer service, these fanatical believers shouted like a psychotic that the dark sun was the only true God in this world.
Maybe your judgment was right, and that madman is about to make a big move. โ
Vermes was straightforward about what he saw and heard.
You must know that in the history of the Faeron Continent, there has never been a god who dares to give himself the title of "the only true god".
Because this is basically equivalent to directly declaring war on all the other gods, it is typical to think that you are dying slowly and want to speed up.
"The One True God? Hahahaha! โ
Zuo Si suddenly burst into a wild laugh without warning, and at the same time sighed happily: "Has it finally begun?" That powerful, wicked, and chaotic divine book seems to have been written. โ
"What do you seem to know?"
Vermes' eyes flashed with intense curiosity.
There's no way not to be curious.
For the fact that the followers of the Shirek Church have gathered on a large scale to Fort Santil, the strongest nest of the Santarim Church and the Church of the God of Tyranny, is enough to illustrate the great conspiracy that may be hidden behind it.
After all, anyone who is not a fool knows that after Ciric obtained all the divine powers and priesthood of the three gods of death, he almost effortlessly won the refuge of Mirkor, the god of death, and most of the members of the Baal Church, the god of murder.
But only the church of Bane, the god of tyranny, swore to the death.
Not only did he refuse to convert, but he also pushed out the Son of God of Bane as a shield to continue to maintain his internal unity.
The church, which has a strong tendency to be orderly and strictly organized, shows its strongest side at this time.
So over the years, Shirek has been trying to infiltrate Santil Fort in various ways, trying to bring those stubborn mortals to their knees.
Vermes felt that if the two churches really fought, then he might consider joining them as a mercenary first and making a lot of money.
Then he saw the opportunity to directly ransack the entire Santil Fort, which had accumulated an astonishing wealth for hundreds of years.
At that time, not only can you make a name for yourself in one fell swoop, but you can also expand the scale of your treasure several times or even more than ten times.
Looking at the undisguised greed in the red dragon's eyes, Zuo Si couldn't help but smile and warn, "I suggest that you better dispel those unrealistic thoughts. Because this is not a small fight between churches, but a head-on collision between God and God. โ
"What do you mean...... Will a god war break out? โ
The Vilmes hole suddenly enlarged, contracted, and enlarged again to reveal the unrest in the owner's heart.
After all, the struggle between the gods of the Faren Continent is generally a proxy war, that is, believers and churches fight each other.
As for God, there is usually no direct collision between God.
Because the destructive power is so terrifying, too amazing.
Just look at the few divine battles that broke out when the gods walked in the form of the weakest saints in the turbulent years, and you can see how terrifying the power of such creatures is.
If a physical plane or planet is not covered by the god Io like Toriel.
Even if the two weakest gods fight with all their might, it may directly cause the entire planet or plane to collapse.
"It's not necessary to break out into a god war, but it's very likely that a guy with an abnormal brain will descend to an avatar. It seems that I need to give Fourzol Chamberbury a heads-up. โ
After that, Zuo Si raised his hand and directly used the [SMS Technique] to tell the other party about the changes in the Shirek Church and the secret about the evil artifact of the "Shirek Sutra".
After doing all this, he raised his head to look at the red dragon who was close at a distance, and asked with a smile, "Are you interested in adding a purgatory bloodline to yourself?" โ
"Purgatory Blood?!"
Vermes's eyes lit up instantly, and his head instantly turned to his habitual paste, completely forgetting that he was in human form and not in dragon form.
Through the fiery red low-cut long skirt, you can clearly see the rigorously trained bodybuilding posture below, as well as the rich and healthy proud upper circumference.
Especially the latter, almost directly slammed Zuo Si's face to cause suffocation and oppression.
Fortunately, Zuo Si reacted relatively quickly, and directly stretched out a finger and pressed it on the forehead of the red dragon, which made the "murder weapon" dock at a safe distance, and said meaningfully: "That's right."
I can now grant you a powerful Purgatory Bloodline, which will promote you from a normal red dragon to a purgatory red dragon.
Not only does it gain additional bonuses in size and strength, but the Spit also comes with additional Infernal Breath's foul damage. โ
"It can't be! Only Tiamat, the dragon god who has served as a level lord, and a very small number of top great demons who control an entire level have such abilities! Vermes screamed.
You must know that most of the five-colored dragons, one of the greatest wishes in this life is to be able to go to hell to receive the blessing of Tiamat, so as to obtain purgatory blood.
For this reason, he even did not hesitate to participate in extremely dangerous bloody battles and bloody battles with endless demons.
Not only does this mean gaining more power, but it also means pushing the limits of one's own lifespan.
As long as you don't get killed, you can live forever and become stronger and stronger.
In Vermes's cognition, this is not a power that mortals can grasp at all, which is why he reacted so violently.
"Hehe, then why do you think I'm not a big devil now?"
As he spoke, Zuo Si showed his devilish form to the female red dragon who had been following him for a long time.
When the unique form mixed with dragon and devil characteristics was completely changed, Vermes fell into a state of stupor, and he couldn't recover for a long time.
Because the hell of order is not a bottomless abyss, where all kinds of strange things are found.
Each of these demons clearly represents a social class and a strict hierarchy.
In other words, there are a limited number of types of devils.
Basically, just by looking at the appearance, you can guess eight or nine.
And the unique external form often represents only one thing, and that is the plane lord who stands at the apex of Bato's infernal power and power.
Astound!
Doubt!
Incomprehensible!
Vermes's not very clever brain was racing, and it took several minutes before he stammered, "When did you go to hell?" โ
"Take refuge?
No, no, no, I didn't take refuge, but Asmodeurs personally invited me to join.
By the way, the Hell Lord is just one of my many identities, not all of them.
If you want to travel or sightsee there in the future, you can always go directly to my territory through the portal, the new ninth level of hell.
Alright, that's the end of the small talk.
Are you ready to receive blessings from the Hellish Plane now? โ
As he spoke, Zuo Si raised his right hand, which was as sharp as a dragon's claw, and a looming mark kept flickering in the palm of his hand.
You don't need to ask to know that the mark is a mark unique to being a plane lord, and its essence is also a devil's contract.
Once this mark is imprinted on the soul of the red dragon, then Vermes is completely his possession, both in body and soul.
"Damn! It seems that I have no hope of escaping your clutches in my life. โ
Vermes cursed in a slightly frustrated whisper.
Even though she wasn't the kind of red dragon who was smart and studious, she knew what that soul imprint meant.
But the problem is that the current strength gap between the two sides is too big, and she has no choice at all.
After struggling for a moment, Vermes finally put on a resigned look, and directly tore his clothes and leaked his entire chest.
"I'm ready! Come on! Put your mark on my body and soul! โ
"Don't say as if I'm doing something unspeakable to you."
Zuo Si rolled his eyes angrily, and then pressed his entire palm on the other party's chest.
Next Second......
Snort!
The creepy burning sound rang out instantly, and a pungent smell of scorched lakes emanated.
Vermes, who had endured the power of hell, couldn't help but let out a heart-rending scream.
"Ahh
๏ผ
๏ผ
๏ผ
๏ผ โ
In just a few seconds, a large number of patterns flashing red appeared from the skin out of thin air, whether it was the face, limbs, or smooth crest back, they were densely covered with one symbol after another exuding an evil aura.
The red dress on his body was burned in the process, and there was not even a trace of dust left.
But soon the symbols cooled down, turning black like tattoos, and eventually disappearing completely.
When everything calmed down, Vermes, who was sweating profusely, struggled to get up from the ground, and suddenly hot red flames burst out of his body.
In an instant, he seamlessly transitioned from human form to dragon form.
The tables, chairs, bookshelves, experimental equipment, decorations, etc., placed in the room, were immediately made a mess by her, and most of them were reduced to ashes under the flames.
But fortunately, most of these things are decorated, and they are not worth a few dollars.
When the transformation was complete, Vermez's astonishing size was fully revealed, and the flames of hell disappeared without a trace.
Her scales, which had begun to darken, were now bright red like that of a young dragon, but her wings were a black color close to obsidian, her eyes had changed from a lava-like fireball to a black jade-like one, and the horns on the top of her head were almost the same color, and there were obvious jagged shapes.
You don't have to ask to know that this is what the red dragon looks like after being strengthened by the purgatory energy.
On top of that, regardless of the length, height, and weight of the body, it has been given a huge boost.
Zuo Si had recovered his human form at the moment, and nodded with satisfaction as he looked at his work: "Not bad!" That's what a purgatory red dragon should look like.
Compared to ordinary red dragons, their strength, physique, charm, intelligence, magic resistance, and scale protection have been greatly improved.
Now, with your strength, you won't lose much even if you fight those true dragon kings.
In addition to this, you can also obtain divine magic from me by believing in and worshipping me.
Oh, I almost forgot.
Since you are already my possession from body to soul, you should not need this strange thing. โ
With the last word blurted out, Zuo Si directly cast a spell to take out the intelligent magic item hidden in the skull made with the Mind Flayer's brain.
ใ
Looking at this tentacle monster that was significantly larger than when it was stuffed in, Vermes asked with a complicated expression, "What are you going to do with it?" โ
"It's easy! Find another dragon that is strong enough, pry open his skull and stuff it in. That way, I have a new toy that I can slowly tune. โ
Zuo Si grinned and showed a chilling, sinister smile.
"Femdom? Toy? โ
Vermes suddenly felt that these two words were very harsh, and two dark red sparks erupted from his nose to express his dissatisfaction.
"Ahh Don't get me wrong, I don't mean you. Because you're my friend and ally, unlike the other dragons. โ
Zuo Si undoubtedly noticed the Purgatory Red Dragon's small emotions, and immediately comforted him with a very perfunctory attitude.
Vermes obviously dared to be angry, stared at the two big black eyes viciously, and it took a long time to suppress the anger, and asked through gritted teeth: "What are your plans next?" Watch Darksun and his group of lunatics destroy Fort Santil? Or ......"
"Don't worry, calm down.
Santil Fort was not defenseless.
Didn't you see that Fourzol Chamberberry didn't even react at all after receiving my text message?
If I'm not mistaken, he's probably trying to make a big move this time. โ
Zuo Si touched his chin and guessed.
"Okay. If there is a battle or a war, remember to call me. I'm a little eager to show the whole of Pheren about my strength and prestige right now. โ
With that, Vermes quickly transformed into a human form and left the messy room.
Probably due to the purgatory bloodline, she was originally wearing a red dress but now she was red and black, and her hair and Tong Kong had also changed from red to black.
It looks proud, cold, and noble, but it also adds a mystery and sexiness out of thin air.
Staring at Vermes's fading back, Zuo Si couldn't help but smile and commented: "This guy has really grown a lot after my training, what do you think?" โ
The strange thing immediately responded through a psychic connection: "Of course.
Most true dragons are too lazy, lazy to the point of wasting almost untold hours on meaningless sleeping, treasure gathering, and personal hobbies.
If they can make the most of this time, they can easily crush the other races and create a huge empire that is more powerful than ever. โ
"yes.
As far as I know, the elves seem to be facing a similar problem.
The lack of a sense of time and urgency is common to almost all longevity races.
By the way, this time I plan for you to directly devour a dragon's brain and take his body and soul.
Eventually, it transforms into a special creature like the Brain Reaper.
I wonder if you're sure you'll succeed? โ
Zuo Si asked with interest.
"I don't know, master. Maybe you should send me to the mastermind, Miss Shadora, to strengthen it, maybe you can increase the success rate a little. โ
The strange thing was quick to give its own advice.
Because the Brain Snatcher is so rare and special.
It's both a monster and a real dragon.
Some scholars believe that it is a dragon transformed by the larvae of the Mind Flayer;
Some scholars believe that it was the dragon's will that defeated the larvae of the Mind Flayer;
Other scholars believe that this is the result of the successful transformation of the Mind Flayer, but the powerful soul of the dragon is recaptured, or that there is some unexplained fusion between the two.
In short, almost all of the studies have failed to give a convincing and accurate answer.
Even the Mind Flayer himself couldn't figure out what a Brain Flayer was.
But one thing is for sure, the latter never considered the Mind Flayer to be his own kind, nor was he controlled by the Mastermind.
Almost as soon as they meet, they will not hesitate to attack and want to kill each other.
The Mind Flayer wants to eliminate this great threat with powerful psychic abilities, but it is not controlled;
Brain Snatchers simply hate and loathe Mind Flayers, and want to gouge out their brains and feast on them.
Just as Zuo Si was about to send the strange object to the floating city through the portal, he suddenly noticed that the succubus Lori in one of the boxes turned into a cocoon, Atona, suddenly had a very strong life reaction.
So, he had to stuff the strange object into a jar full of viscous solution, and then open the box and take the little guy out.
I saw that the originally smooth outer wall of the cocoon was now densely covered with cracks like spider webs.
And that's not all!
Through the translucent diaphragm, you can also see that the succubus Lori inside is emitting a golden light that symbolizes divinity and divine power.
There is no doubt that the latter was taken from the body of the Son of a Half-Demon God who held gold in the Goddess of Wealth.
The so-called divinity, in fact, is like the unlit spark of the traveling mage, which is a potential qualification above all living beings.
In other words, all creatures with divinity can be exercised, perceived, and understood by this power, and eventually ignite it into a divine spark and become a true deity.
Of course, this is not an easy task.
Because there are a lot of divine creatures, but only a handful of them can truly become gods.
In particular, the sons of God who are born with divinity are almost all full of fatalistic tragedies in their lives.
This is true of the sons of Baal, as is the son of the gods of Bane, the god of tyranny.
But Atona was clearly lucky.
All the divine power she absorbed had been transformed by Zuo Si, and it had nothing to do with her original owner, the Goddess of Wealth, holding gold.
As these divinities melted into the body and soul little by little, the whole cocoon suddenly shattered with a snap.
Following the succubus Lori floating in mid-air, she finally slowly opened her eyes and woke up.
She first looked around vigilantly, and then asked in a tone that was not very sure, "Master, how long have I been asleep?" Still?
?, what is this place? โ
"You slept for a long time. As for this, it is the continent of Ferron, the planet of Torreel, the main material plane. โ
Zuo Si stretched out his hand and gently touched the little guy's head, and then began to do a physical examination for him.
Among them, the compatibility of soul and divinity is even more important.
Atona took off her leather armor like a straitjacket very cooperatively, wearing only a close-fitting vest and shorts, and said cautiously: "Master, I seem to be able to clearly feel your presence. โ
"Oh? So did you pray? Zuo Si asked with a smile.
Succubus Lori nodded: "Hmm! I have acquired the special class [Knight of Truth] that you have given me, as well as all its knowledge and training methods. Now I can unleash three one-ring spells a day, as well as two spell-like abilities. โ
"Yes, keep up the good work. You know, I expect a lot from you. Here, you can use it as a medium for you to perform magic in the future. โ
As he spoke, Zuo Si handed Atona an emblem made of cold iron.
"Thank you so much! Master, can I hug you? โ
Succubus Lori held the emblem in both hands, raised her head and blinked her big eyes that were smart and full of longing.
"Absolutely."
Zuo Si smiled and replied in the affirmative.
Next Second......
Atona jumped up and hugged Zuosi's neck tightly, closing her eyes and enjoying the indescribable sense of security, while secretly congratulating herself on finally escaping the terrible abyss.
