Chapter 569: The Eye of Vikna (10,000 Words Chapter, Asking for Subscription)
"Bastard!
Look at my house!
My shop!
My goods!
This is the sixth time in six months!
Once a month on average!
Your goddamn experiments won't even earn a single gold coin other than wreathing, fire, and explosions!
A month ago, an idiot paid for your invention, only to be blown away before you could get out of the black market.
The people who cleaned up the bodies and garbage complained to me that it took them four hours to clean up the broken bodies and bloodstains. β
The male gnome grabbed the female gnome by the collar and roared angrily.
The former is obviously not young, with a long beard equivalent to a human chest, and the top of his head is basically bald, only the back of his head is barely a little hair, but he was also burned in this explosion.
The latter, by contrast, looked rather young, wearing a garment that looked like a lot of hard leather and studs had been sewn into a robe, and had a faint arcane aura under magical vision.
You don't have to ask to know that it was the strange clothes in between, which protected her from any damage in the explosion.
He also wears a helmet and crystal goggles like a flying helmet on his head.
"You can't blame me last time! It's all that idiot who didn't follow the instructions! And my invention is useful, it's just that for the time being, no smart people have discovered the potential of these formulas. β
The female dwarf, known as Manab, retorted loudly without showing weakness.
But the older male dwarf, apparently fed up with this kind of fearful day, pushed the fellow to the ground, and roared angrily, "I don't want to listen to your quibbles!
Not interested in those bullshit inventions either!
Now you're fired.
Roll me as far as I can.
You will never be allowed to appear in my store again.
I really regret that I was so foolish that I would agree to take in such a dangerous person as you in the first place. β
"Phew! Old stubborn, one day you will regret what you did today. My invention will one day make a lot of money. β
Manab struggled to get up from the ground, spat rudely at the old gnome, then picked up something from the rubble that was not damaged and belonged to him, and limped away at the end of the dark waterway with a large heavy backpack, his lonely back looking rather desolate.
But given the devastation caused by the explosion just now, she deserved it to some extent.
The quarrel between the two gnomes obviously attracted the attention of many people in the black market, but no one stepped forward to get involved, and they were just watching from afar.
In addition, the gnomes of the Gray Eagle World, like the Continent of Faerun, are born with a unique talent for illusion magic and creating inventions.
Especially on the black market, dwarf mages and craftsmen can often make very useful things.
For example, arrows and small mechanical crossbows that trigger different magic effects when they hit, or special items that can be thrown to produce smoke, poison gas, and strong flashes, or carefully blended fiery gels, strong acid bottles, and magic potions.
Many members of the Rogue Guild buy points when they go on dangerous missions, just in case.
Therefore, all the gnomes who can gain a foothold in the black market have close cooperation with the local gang forces, and no one dares to trouble them easily.
Just as Zuo Si was analyzing the cause of the explosion just now, the thief boy, who had disappeared for a while, finally returned with a coin carved from red crystal.
Without saying a word, he stuffed the coin directly into his employer, and said in a low voice: "In fifteen minutes, you take this coin to the tavern on the west side of the black market, give it to the thinnest-looking hostess, and then she will take you to the auction room." Be careful, I've heard that there will be a lot of ruthless characters in this auction. β
"Magical items?"
Zuo Si fiddled with the crystal coin in his hand with a look of surprise.
Despite being only the lowest level of magical creation, it obviously can't be too cheap as a permanent constant enchantment.
What's more, this thing has no practical use at all, and is just used as an anti-counterfeiting mark.
"You have a good eye.
It is indeed a specially crafted magical item.
Generally, the black market will only use this red crystal coin as an entry ticket when a very high-value auction item appears.
The entrance fee of hundreds of gold coins can also eliminate those poor ghosts with insufficient financial resources, and let powerful sellers bid.
On top of that, the organizers of the auction will use the power of magic to hide the identity of each buyer, ensuring that no outlaws will take the risk of killing people after the auction is over.
So it's theoretically safe and you don't have to worry too much. β
The boy lowered his voice and introduced some of the rules of the black market and auctions.
Although he looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, his two hands were full of calluses sharpened by holding short swords and daggers for a long time, and his eyes occasionally flashed with ferocity, and it was obvious that he had already killed people, and there were at least a dozen or twenty of them.
"You think I'm going to worry about security?" Zuo Si asked with a sneer.
Hearing this, the young man was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing.
"Hehe, yes, how can a guy like you who likes to do nonsense worry about his safety.
After all, more than half of the rich and powerful men in Greyhawk City now want to kill you, and the other half have already begun to secretly take action.
The cumulative bounty alone is about to reach 50,000 gold coins.
To be honest, I really don't understand how you got to this point.
Under normal circumstances, if an ordinary person provoked any of those families, the corpse should have been eaten by the fish of the moat by now.
By the way, what are the beautiful ladies and ladies of those famous families?
Now there's rumors out there that you've enlarged the bellies of some of them, that's why those men are so angry. β
Looking at the curiosity and gossip revealed in the thief boy's eyes, Zuo Si immediately chuckled and shook his head: "Don't listen to the rumors outside.
I confined my communication with the ladies and ladies to pure language and spirituality.
Otherwise, their fathers, husbands, and suitors would have come to me through legal means.
As for your interest, I can only tell you that without the extra sense of conquest and possessiveness that comes with status, status, education, and family, this group of ladies and ladies is not much different from the young and beautiful women among the commoners.
Of course, considering that sexual interest is very idealistic in the first place, everyone's XP will be slightly different, so the actual feeling will only be known after you try it yourself.
Why don't I take you with me next time I go to a banquet?
There are several older ladies who like you as a handsome young boy with a bit of a wild vibe.
At that time, you won't have to lick the blood like you do now, as long as you satisfy their desires, you can easily get a rich reward. β
"No, thank you, I don't want to be stabbed one day for no reason, and then the body will be in the sewer or moat."
Without hesitation, the thief boy shook his head desperately and rejected the tempting offer.
Are you kidding!
Although this kind of work sounds easy and refreshing, it is actually many times more dangerous than the current black market.
Once caught, those families who want money, power, and power will inevitably choose to kill people to vent their anger.
After all, for a cuckolded husband, killing a wife with the same status as himself may lead to a series of serious consequences, but it is quite easy to kill a "little white face" who has no identity and status.
The thief boy didn't dare to bet that he could have the same good luck as Zuo Si.
What's more, he had already inquired about the reason why no one in the underground forces in the city had dared to accept the high bounty until now, in fact, it was very likely that it was a warning from the Eight Leaves Mage.
In this world, few people dare to ignore the words of Yaba, especially the supreme leader Demon Duncan.
"Hahahaha! I like your caution, which allows you to avoid many dangers and live longer in a dangerous environment. β
Zuo Si laughed and patted the young man on the shoulder, and then walked straight in the direction of the tavern where the auction was held.
Since the sewers in this area have long been dug into a labyrinth of underground towns, they do not stink like normal sewers, and there is not even sewage, but a thick layer of soil is placed on the ground.
Some house owners also use magic light sources to plant small quantities of plants and flowers in front of and behind their houses.
As for household waste and sewage, it is transported to the garbage pipe next door by a separate pipe.
If you are a first-time visitor to Gray Eagle City, it is difficult to imagine that there is a small town with thousands of people living under this prosperous and wealthy free city-state.
With his dark vision, Zuo Si saw the illegal transactions going on in those corners, as well as the evils that were enough to make ordinary people feel creepy.
A necromancer even picks out a few scrawny guys directly in the iron cage where the slaves are kept, and then kills them directly after paying for them, resurrecting them as zombies or ghouls under their control.
Others bought the corpse of a four- or five-year-old child whose soul was sealed, and made it into some kind of small undead creature similar to a demon pet.
The most terrifying thing is that the people around me do not have the slightest reaction to this kind of behavior, and they are obviously used to it for a long time, and they don't feel that there is any problem at all.
It's like in hell, whether it's the devil or other creatures, they often use souls as currency when buying things.
Obviously, this is a good indication that the Grey Eagle Council, which holds the supreme power, like many city rulers on the continent of Faerun, has very limited real control, and most of the neighborhoods still rely on autonomy.
And the emptiness of the power structure at the grassroots level will give birth to all kinds of guilds, especially the thieves' guilds that make a living from crime.
When these gangs and criminal organizations are fully integrated with the local community, they will quickly settle down and become part of the city's economy and ecology.
When the time comes, anyone who wants to touch them will cause very serious social unrest, and even the common people will join in the fierce resistance.
This is because these civilians are most likely dependent on the work and order provided by gangs and criminal organizations to make ends meet.
This is also why, during the expansion of the West Coast Empire, the first thing Zuo Si did when he notified a city of occupation was to attack the local thief guild.
And would rather kill to the point of bleeding than compromise with the people who joined the rebellion, and treat them as peripheral members of the Thieves' Guild.
Only this bloodiest, most violent, and most brutal purge can completely remove the internal cancer without leaving any future troubles.
Otherwise, as the city grows and grows, the power of those criminal organizations will also expand, and eventually penetrate into all aspects of society, becoming a member of the ruling class who are qualified to serve at the table.
Unfortunately, Duncan was apparently unaware of this, and did not take advantage of the war to purge Greyhawk's interior.
Of course, it is not excluded that this underground town is part of the "great balance" he advocates, and it has been deliberately preserved.
In this way, after walking along the not-so-narrow pipe for about seven or eight minutes, Zuo Si finally came to the designated tavern.
It is different from the tattered and stale in the imagination.
The two-story masonry building, built on a stretch of pipes, is not only covered with tiles that glow blue, green and red on the outside.
There were also several men and women who were scantily clad or not wearing anything at all, standing in the doorway and twisting their bodies, making all sorts of suggestive and provocative gestures.
Half of them are humans, the rest are elves, half-elves, tiflins, etc.
Maybe it's because what Zuo Si has been doing in Gray Eagle City lately is too explosive, or maybe he has a large bounty on his head......
Anyway, when he reached the door, everyone stopped moving, and their eyes widened as if they couldn't believe what they were seeing.
"Excuse me, I'm going to go in for today's auction, thank you very much."
Zuo Si dangled the red crystal coin between the index and middle fingers of his right hand in front of the other party's eyes, and then carefully squeezed between the two women who were convex and backward, while deftly avoiding the thighs that the other half-elf lady took the initiative to reach.
Once inside the tavern, the first thing he saw was a dozen or so hardwood tables, and more than forty warriors in armor and weapons in armour, or spellcasters in robes, cloaks, and hoods.
But the funny thing is that these guys neither drank nor chatted and bragged like ordinary guests, but sat very quietly on their stools, silently watching each other with wary eyes, and were clearly on high alert.
With the help of the Regent Mind and some other magic that reads memories and thoughts, Zuo Si easily figured out that all the people sitting in the tavern at the moment were ruthless characters such as bodyguards and mercenaries.
Their mission is to ensure that the employer can bring home the treasure he bought safely after attending the auction.
"Welcome, would you like a drink?"
Just when the atmosphere in the tavern was becoming more and more depressed and tense, a thin woman with a height of more than one meter and a half near the bar squeezed out a smile and took the initiative to ask.
"I guess you should recognize this, right?"
Zuo Si handed over the crystal coin in front of everyone, without the slightest intention to hide it.
His behavior instantly attracted the attention of everyone present, and the thin woman standing in front of the bar froze directly in place, and it took a full minute before she raised her head and said in a very complicated tone: "You are really as bold and fearless as rumored."
He is a madman who dares to seduce twenty of the most powerful female members of the city's most powerful family at the same time.
I'm curious, what is your relationship with Duncan?
Why would he be willing to warn everyone in the city again and again not to do anything to you?
Such tireless protection doesn't look like his character at all. β
"You may not believe it, but it wasn't me who was protecting Duncan, but those who wanted to do something to me. Because if they do anything to me, the city will be bleeding. β
As he said this, Zuo Si looked around the entire tavern with a slightly playful look, especially the mercenaries whose eyes burst with greed and murderous intent.
Obviously, these guys were quite jealous of the tens of thousands of gold bounties offered on the black market, and they wanted to rush up and cut off his head and exchange it for money.
But the problem is that no one knows if they can escape the pursuit of powerful mages such as Demon Duncan and Yaba after they do this.
"A river of blood? You're really humorous. β
The woman obviously felt that the young man in front of her was bragging, rolled her eyes angrily, and then walked straight out of the bar, hooked her hand and instructed Yi Zuosi to follow.
The two walked down the narrow hallway through the kitchen and cellar, through several doors and rooms in succession, and finally came to an empty chamber located deeper.
I saw that she directly stuffed the coin to a man with a goatee, and whispered a few words in the other person's ear.
A flash of shock flashed in the latter's eyes, and he glanced at Zuo Si before finally nodding his head to indicate that he knew.
After the woman left, the man with the goatee came over with a cloak and mask, and said with a smile: "Before entering the auction site, please wear a magic cloak and mask that can hide your identity." β
But Zuo Si waved his hand and refused: "No, no need, I don't think I have the need to hide my identity." β
"Are you sure? Know that if your identity is revealed, once someone with bad intentions targets you and what you bought......"
Before the man with the goatee could finish speaking, Zuo Si interrupted bluntly: "I said no. It's been a bit boring lately, and if someone who doesn't know how to live or die dares to hit my attention, it's just the right time to pass the time. β
"Well, since you insist, I don't have much more to say."
The man shrugged his shoulders helplessly, then raised his arm and pointed to the black velvet curtain hanging on the right side of the room.
Zuo Si didn't say a word, and walked in.
Moment!
He noticed that more than a dozen eyes were on him at the same time.
The owners of these gazes had apparently come to the auction, wearing the magic cloaks and masks that they used to disguise their identities.
They were obviously very surprised that someone dared to swagger in without any cover.
But fortunately, the organizers did not give buyers much time to observe and test each other.
With the arrival of the last man, this secret underground auction soon began.
"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much for your visit.
In order to save you precious time, I will not further ado, and go straight to the first item of the day, a ring with great magical powers.
Although it looks ordinary, like a silver ring with rough workmanship, a closer look reveals that it has eight stars forged by arcane power.
According to experts' identification, this is supposed to be a seeker's seal, belonging to Morcan's former enemy, Eli Tomorast.
Once worn, you can cast the Legend of Legends once a day.
The reserve price is now 5,000 gold coins, and each increase must not be less than 1,000. β
The host was a male Tiffling in a gorgeous dress with a slightly shrill voice.
He was obviously well aware that the people who came to such auctions often had a strong sense of purpose, and did not need to make any exaggerated descriptions of the items he was selling, but simply read out the name of the first sale and its origin and possible uses, and then began to bid.
"Five thousand!"
"Eight thousand!"
"Ten thousand!"
"Fifteen thousand!"
β¦β¦
With the sound of one after another, the price of the ring was quickly raised to about 25,000.
After a short while, it finally sold for twenty-eight thousand.
And this is almost impossible to find a few hundred gold coins with the market price of the Seeker's Seal Ring.
However, Zuo Si felt that the person who bought the ring must have gambled that its previous owner, Elie Tomorast, might have hidden some secret in it.
This ruthless character in the Gray Eagle world broke out into fierce conflicts with well-known archmages such as Demon Duncan and Bigbay, and finally died at the hands of Demon Duncan.
But then it was rumored that he was resurrected by the priest of Yenogu, the king of the gnolls.
Whether it is true or false is not yet certain.
After all, there is a very important law in the universe where Torel is located, that is, the more important people tend to be completely eradicated, and even if they accidentally die, they are likely to be resurrected at some time in the future.
Therefore, the hidden value of the Seeker's Ring, and the Seeker organization behind Erie Tomorast, is the real highlight.
And once a day, the Legend of Knowers is just a side giveaway.
But Zuo Si was obviously not interested in this, so he didn't even bother to make a bid.
The second lot is a +3 broadsword made from the special magic material "Nightmade".
This is a very evil material, and anyone in the good camp will instantly gain a negative level just by touching it.
Nothing will bring it back unless you let it go.
In addition, creatures killed by this weapon cannot be resurrected by normal means, and can only be used by wishing or miracle magic.
The origin of the "Nightmade" material, the Eight Achievements were dug up near the destroyed Evil Elemental Temple in the Gray Eagle World.
The weapon was eventually acquired by another mystery buyer for 60,000 gold coins.
The third is said to be a spellbook used by Vicna's apprentice, Athrilac, which contains a large number of evil and terrifying necromantic magic, and finally sold for 80,000 gold coins.
The main reason why the price is so low is that there are a lot of traps and curses attached to the spell book.
Whoever wants to crack it is bound to take a huge risk.
The fourth is a vampire hand.
According to the host, it belonged to Keith, Vikna's lieutenant back then, and it contained amazing necromantic magical powers, and it was an artifact that could be compared to Vikna's Eye.
But Zuo Si scoffed at this.
Don't be funny!
Really be an artifactist, and the cabbage on the street can be made casually?
When Keith betrayed Vicna, he slashed out three artifacts and a high-level magic item in the first battle.
The three artifacts are the Eye of Vekna, the Hand of VΓkna, and the Ear of VΓkna, while the high-level magic item is VΓkna's Robe.
Yes, you read that right.
None of these things were donated voluntarily by Vic, but were cut down when they were betrayed and destroyed by his men.
Later, he became a god, and these things naturally received additional power blessings and became artifacts or sub-artifacts.
However, compared to the famous eyes and hands, not many people know the Ears of Vicna.
But one thing is for sure, and that is that this vampire hand does contain quite a staggering amount of negative energy, which can increase the duration and power of necromantic magic.
I have to say that this group of rulers in the underground black market of Gray Eagle City is indeed a bit wild.
Almost every item in the auction has reached quite good quality, and it's no wonder that even the admission ticket dared to sell for a hundred gold coins.
Just as Zuo Si watched with interest as the other buyers competed for bids, the penultimate auction item was finally brought up.
It was an eyeball that had completely dried up, leaving only an oval lens, with a faint amount of weathered optic nerve visible at the end.
Through the magical vision, you can clearly see the dazzling arcane aura that symbolizes necromantic magic, and the undisguised evil aura.
Anyone who gouges out their own eyes and stuffs them into their sockets can gain incredible magical power in minutes.
But in the same way, their minds, thoughts, and consciousness will continue to be influenced by Vekna, and eventually become what the hidden gods want them to be.
And the more you do that, the more power you can get from your eyes.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that this famous artifact doesn't need to be introduced too much, so let's jump right into the auction. This time there is no reserve price and there are no restrictions. β
The moderator carefully held up the tray containing the Eye of Vicner so that everyone could see it.
After only a second, Zuo Si raised his hand and shouted, "Two hundred thousand gold coins!" β
Moment!
The entire auction site fell silent.
Whether it was the stunned host, or the sellers around who were bidding frantically just now, they all showed unbelievable expressions.
Because he has never offered a price before, many people think that this young man who does not hide his identity probably spent money to buy a ticket to watch the fun.
But no one expected that he would actually aim at the Eye of Vicna and put on a posture that was inevitable.
After a short silence, the host immediately shouted excitedly: "200,000 gold coins!" Someone has already paid 200,000 gold coins! Is there anything higher? β
"Two hundred and fifty thousand!"
A guy with a low and hoarse voice quickly chose to follow.
I saw him raise his head, and the eyes hidden under the mask and hood seemed to flash a cold light, as if he was issuing some kind of warning.
"Five hundred thousand!"
Zuo Si didn't even have a chance, and the other party directly came to a super double.
After all, gold had long since become a meaningless number to him, but the Eye of Vicna was the only one, which was very valuable for research.
"Are you sure you're getting this much money?"
The mystery buyer, with a low and hoarse voice, sneered and questioned.
"Are you doubting my financial strength?"
As he spoke, Zuo Si raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
Syllable!
With a crisp sound, a cross-dimensional portal was opened in an instant, followed by piles of gold coins slanting out from the other side like a tide, colliding with each other with a crisp and pleasant sound, and in a short time, a small mountain of gold was piled up on the ground.
Although it may not look very high or large, anyone with an idea of the density of gold understands that the number of gold coins here is definitely more than a million.
Many countries don't necessarily have that much money in their coffers.
For a while, many people were staring at the golden light and swallowing their saliva, but none of them dared to act rashly.
Most of them had already recognized that the interdimensional portal just now was the [Otherworldly Gate] of the Nine Rings Spell Magic.
As for whether it was magic or arcane, it is unknown why there were no spells and spell casting.
Able to cast the Nine Rings spell, this is definitely the top powerful spellcaster.
Moreover, the magic of [Otherworldly Gate] is not only as simple as connecting two planes, but also can summon legendary creatures like the Barlow Flame Demon and the Deep Hell Purgatory Demon.
"How, is that enough?"
Zuo Si picked up a few gold coins and threw them to the host.
The latter hurriedly caught it, identified the simple casting process, weight and gold content, and after a few seconds, his eyes lit up slightly: "Of course!" The quality of this gold coin you is very good and we are more than happy to accept it. β
"In that case, let's go ahead."
After saying that, Zuo Si deliberately stared at the guy who was competing with him for the Eye of Vicna with a slightly provocative look.
The latter was silent for a long time, and finally did not say anything more, let alone continue to bid.
Because he obviously couldn't take out millions of gold coins, he could only choose to remain silent and give up.
After confirming that no one was bidding again, Zuo Si finally won this artifact, which was quite famous in the entire universe, at a high price of 500,000 gold coins.
Ignoring the host's flattering flattery, he scrutinized the magic eye and the power it contained.
As expected, as long as ordinary people change this eyeball, the spell slots of the first and second rings will be doubled immediately, and the magic resistance, immunity, and immunity to instant death spells will be greatly increased.
And over time, the effect of multiplying the spell slot will gradually increase from one or two rings to three rings and four rings......
As for where the ceiling is, it is not known for the time being.
But if it is used by Zuo Si himself, he can instantly get the effect of doubling the spell slots from one to six rings, and it is double the two classes of mage and warlock at the same time.
In addition to this, this eye can also see and recognize many words related to magic.
The only problem with equipping it requires gouging out an eye of oneself, and not just once, but each time the soul and consciousness change bodies, they need to gouge out the eye and replace it again.
In addition, this eye is suspected to have some kind of connection to Vicna, and it needs to be cut off first.
Just as Zuo Si touched his chin and thought about how to use this artifact, he suddenly felt a black shadow full of chaotic evil power appear behind him out of thin air.
Before he could react, he heard a familiar voice in his ear.
"Relax! Don't be nervous, it's me. β
I saw a dark elf woman with amazing beauty come out of the darkness and put her hands on Zuo Si's shoulders.
She is obviously none other than Rose, the spider goddess who has a monopoly on the belief in the dark elves.
"Why are you here?"
Zuo Si raised his eyebrows in surprise, and noticed that the goddess had obviously used some kind of ability to block the perception of others around her, and neither the buyer nor the host noticed her arrival.
"Hehe, have you forgotten the gift you mentioned the last time we met?
I've managed to fool all the eyeliner and sneak it into this auction.
Now all you have to do is buy it.
Remember, no matter what it takes.
Otherwise, once it falls into the hands of others, the world may be completely finished, and even those gods cannot do anything about it. β
A playful smile appeared on the corner of Rose's lips, tilting slightly, as she pointed to the book wrapped in a piece of silk on the table.
You don't have to ask to know that this is the finale of today's auction.
"What's that?"
Zuo Si asked in a tone that was not very certain.
Because silk almost blocked all the arcane aura and aura of the book, there was no leakage at all.
Rose replied meaningfully, "It is the fragment that carries the supreme will of the bottomless abyss.
It is full of knowledge and power that you can't imagine, and it is a taboo that the gods absolutely cannot touch.
I'm curious to know what happens the moment you touch and open the book.
I'm sure it must be very, very interesting. β
Looking at the expectation and evil taste revealed in the eyes of the spider goddess, Zuo Si subconsciously frowned.
Because the body was still asleep, and it was only an insignificant projection at the moment, he was not sure if the power of this projection alone could handle this book of the abyss.
Just in a daze, the host once again walked up to the front desk, very carefully picked up the books wrapped in silk on the table, and explained with a smile: "Next is the last treasure in today's auction."
Although so far we don't know exactly what it is and what kind of power it has.
But the outermost layer of silk alone is invulnerable, invulnerable, and neither physical nor magical attacks can cause even the slightest damage to it.
So we have reason to believe that this book must contain amazing power. β
In order to prove his claim, the host directly grabbed a dagger with enchantment level +2 and stabbed it towards the silk.
Bang!
The moment the dagger touched the silk, he was bounced backwards by an invisible force, and then slammed into the wall behind him.
This scene suddenly aroused a strong curiosity among people who were not interested.
After all, even if the book inside is worthless, the silk that wraps it can be used to make the most powerful and perfect armor.
"Look at these ridiculously ignorant mortals.
They had no idea how dangerous and terrifying the contents of that piece of silk were.
Once the silk is opened, with the power of the abyss contained in that book, the city can be completely abyssed in a few hours at most.
In two or three weeks, the entire continent can be assimilated, and in about half a year, the planet will be dragged into the abyss and become a new level.
When the time comes, all humans and other intelligent beings will become part of the demons. β
Rose mocked in a gloating tone.
"So you're looking forward to seeing the destruction of this world?"
Zuo Si asked casually, and finally understood why the other party did not choose to trade in Faerun.
Something as dangerous as this is, the god of God, Io, would not allow it to enter the crystal wall that he created and managed.
Rose stuck out her tongue and licked her lips, responding in a slightly excited tone, "No, I just want to simply appreciate the powerful and unrivaled power of the Abyssal Will. You, who tend to be orderly, will never understand the pleasure and beauty of chaos. β
"Maybe."
Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders and didn't continue to dwell too much on the topic.
Because he knew that Rose was one of the very few gods who truly comprehended the true meaning of chaos, and it was because of this that she won the favor of the Abyssal Will.
You must know that even the Demon Prince Demogorgen has not been able to confirm what the Abyssal Will is.
But the Spider Goddess can already negotiate and trade with herself on behalf of the will of the Abyss.
While the two were talking, the price of that book had officially broken through the 300,000 mark.
In particular, the previous buyer who had competed for the Eye of Vekena had apparently noticed the book's extraordinary, and began to price it at all costs.
There were even negotiations with the organizers to make some mortgages for magical items and other property.
Just as the auction was about to enter its final climax, there was a sudden violent vibration overhead, followed by several people in blood-stained armor rushing in, shouting out of breath: "No...... Oh no! It's the old ...... Followers of the old man Iuz! Suddenly, they rioted en masse and came this way. β
"What? Followers of Iuz! Why? Didn't we tell them that the water of the well did not interfere with the water of the river? β
The host was obviously a little panicked, and subconsciously wanted to touch the thin sword hanging from his waist.
It's a pity that before he could pull it out, a sharp arrow suddenly shot out from a dark corner.
Sou!
"Ah!!!h
He fell to the ground, clutching his pierced chest to stop the blood coming from within, and then asked for help from the others next to him with his eyes.
It's a pity that this cold arrow has completely disrupted the order of the scene.
After realizing the danger coming, the buyers chose to flee almost immediately, and no one cared about the life or death of a single host.
Only Zuo Si stood in place and did not move, but asked the spider goddess beside him bluntly: "How could the believers of Iuz suddenly appear in Gray Eagle City?" You couldn't have revealed something to him that shouldn't have been revealed, right? β
"You're so clever that you guessed it all at once. In order to add a little fun to this game, I put a lot of thought into it and built a spacious enough stage. How, do you like it? β
Rose picked up the heavy silk-wrapped book and stuffed it into Zuo Si's hand, and whispered in the latter's ear, "If I were you, I would summon the main body right now, otherwise I wouldn't be able to solve so many enemies with just one projection......
(End of chapter)
