Chapter 642: One Eliminates the Other
The subbrain used by the Siegel clone only has the ability to deal with simple affairs, and its spell mastery is just above the level of an ordinary mage. But they have an ability that others don't have, and that is the linkage of minds and absolute mutual fit, and they can perfectly divide and manipulate spells. Therefore, when the clones work together to cast spells and communicate with the magic god as a mana pool, then the magic power they can exert is not inferior to that of the archmage.
They didn't care about the threat of death, they didn't have the desire to win, they only had one thought, the mastermind's order: hold Evan and keep him from getting out of here. At the same time, Siegel severed the connection that the vice-brains had initiated at him, surrendering control so that he could be completely disconnected from the battlefield and able to concentrate on his own business.
Evan can slash every spell and even catch a chance to injure a clone or two. But the clones soon learned to work together, turning into an infinitely resilient web that trapped Evan inside. Maybe you can really break 10,000 spells with a single sword, but at least try 10,000 spells first.
Siegel took the opportunity to get out and came to Moore and Nata's side. "Moore, I need you to do something. Siegel glanced back at the clone and Evan and said, "I want you to dress up as Evan and go back to the venue." You don't have to say anything, you don't have to do anything, you just have to be there. ”
"Won't they see it?" Moore knew it was a silly question. If the magic god's spells were easily seen through, it would be a joke. So he changed the question: "Do we need to directly advance the bill to preserve the New World?"
"No, you don't have to say anything. Siegel then cast a spell to transform Moore into Evan and threw him back to Myr.
"Nata, if something happens, stop Evan no matter what. I need time to stabilize the situation in the Thunderwall World. Siegel sat down cross-legged and connected his consciousness to the portal of the Thunder Wall world.
He could close the doors immediately, but that would be the equivalent of isolating the monsters from the soldiers who came to the rescue. Moreover, with these portals, he can also vibrate the elements and pass his spells. As a result, almost the entire world of the Thunder Wall, especially those closer to the portal, had Seagal's voice in their minds.
"People of the Thunder Wall World, I am Siegel, the god of magic and knowledge, the last god and guardian of the world, the maker and manager of portals. Now I'm under attack from the gods of the outside world. Damage and calamity spread everywhere with the portal, which was meant to be saved. I need your strength, I need your faith, I need you to pray to me, I need my name, and salvation will follow. ”
The words were repeated over and over again, and even the otherworldly creatures that were wreaking havoc everywhere heard it. Some clever fellows, sensing the power of the gods, left their companions and began to retreat - they saved their lives. However, many more monsters were unable to relate the sound to what would happen next, and continued to wreak havoc in their own way.
Naturally, the representatives of the various races in the hall also heard this voice, and immediately shouted: "What's going on, why is it so much in advance?" They turned their eyes to "Evan", and the Star King left the venue to find the magic god, which was something everyone knew. Evan - or rather Moore - took Siegel to heart and sat down in his chair saying nothing, except for a "mysterious smile" on the corner of his mouth.
Siegel looked at Evan who was still fighting, and his mood was also complicated. On the one hand, if it weren't for Evan cutting off a part of the divine fire, he wouldn't have been able to master the priesthood so quickly. There were only three forks left, and the divine fire, which was no longer able to maintain its integrity, was frightened and just wanted to possess it as soon as possible. Coupled with Siegel's own powers, the two worked together, and Siegel was officially promoted to the god of magic and knowledge. No matter how much divine power is increased in the future, there is no need for the clone to share it, and Siegel's own body can fully bear it, and there will be no instability.
On the other hand, Evan became like this, which also gave him a big warning. The reason why the gods have become impersonal is largely related to the divine fire, and they must continue to be careful and vigilant, constantly compare themselves with their past selves, and find out the changes in their personality and mood. Since the lifespan of the gods is unlimited, the struggle against the divine fire will also continue forever.
As for later, he had heard prayers everywhere, and the power of his faith grew. He definitely couldn't disappoint the "believer" at this time, so he immediately contacted Isaac, who was still in Myr City.
Due to the presence of the Magic Temple, although there were many teleportation arrays in Myr City and Heim, they suffered almost no losses. A few monsters that occasionally ran out were not strong, and they were quickly killed by the local adventurer mercenaries, and they went to the City Lord's Mansion to receive the reward. However, news came from all over the place, and the Heim Lords felt nervous, so with the help of the Little Council, Isaac gave the order to assemble the magic legions, and sent a message for the lords everywhere to guard the city.
"Isaac, lead the Magic Legion and cooperate with the Star Rope to help defend the problematic portal. I'll tell you where and what type of monsters appear, and you guys strike quickly. Let the Myr Chamber of Commerce allocate relief supplies and start dropping them with the portal system. Don't fall in love on the battlefield, defeat the enemy and leave, because the battles will be very frequent, and the most important thing is to fight quickly. ”
"I'll have Priest Red assist you, as well as the paladins of the Temple of Magic. If you have a problem with the conductor, you can always ask Mana. Spell-wise, Wendy should be enough to protect you. This time, you need to present the world as a strong man and give them the confidence to meet the challenges of the new world. ”
After confirming that his son understood all the information, Siegel sat down cross-legged and concentrated on digesting the growing divine powers. If there are so many people who help and Isaac can't do it, then there is nothing to do. You can't do everything by yourself, even if he is a god, he can't keep himself busy.
More than a hundred clones have already died at the hands of Evan's sword, and the number is growing. The combat power of a long sword bursting out in Evan's hand was surprising, but it had little effect on the situation. He had killed 10,000 clones, but what could he change? Evan tried several times to cut off the divine power of the original body through the clones, just as he did with a few Sages who had assassinated him. But Siegel used the obsidian dagger to restrain the split of the Divine Fire, not giving Evan any chance.
Perhaps he should have been a free-spirited swordsman instead of being bound by a king, and with his talent he might have reached the pinnacle of the hundred-faced dice. Siegel himself is also better at being a mage than a lord, and all the trivial things of the Heim Territory are left to others to worry about, he only needs to come up with something advanced enough to make the Heim Territory full of motivation for development.
If you think about it from the perspective of dice, the hundred-faced dice pursue the peak, then it should be more pure. Twenty-sided dice at least represent understanding and learning, and can finally be more colorful.
Looking at Evan now, he couldn't help but think of Alexander, the Lion King. Whether it is influenced by mind control, or from the undead, or from divine fire, the human soul is always a fragile thing. When under the influence of good, man becomes good, and when he is influenced by evil, he is not slow to fall at all. This is different from dwarves and elves, and it is even more different from dragons. Although it will be more energetic, it will also be easier to embark on the path of self-destruction.
It is the orcs and goblins who are more likely to swing than humans, and the lesson of goblin self-destruction is in front of us. Of course, there are also contributions from human mages, but even without Liel's intervention, the end of the goblins is almost doomed, and sooner or later a full-scale war will completely erase their development for thousands of years.
So is humanity's end doomed? Siegel looked at Evan with worry in his heart. Even if we reach the half-plane and everyone settles in the New World, will the matter be over? Maybe for one or two generations, or even ten generations of human beings, the current situation is stable enough, but for him, an immortal god, I am afraid it has just begun.
After all, the half-plane is closed, and sooner or later it will dry up. This depletion is not just a matter of resources - this is a good solution, many of the crystal walls have a lot of unused resources, and taking out some of them is enough for the half-plane. Siegel fears the depletion of the soul, and the person who falls into a closed state will eventually fight among themselves, like the goblins, and eventually destroy themselves. The only way is to go out, keep making progress in the process of pioneering, absorb the good things, and fight the bad things. Some radical elves call humans just a disease that infects nature, and they may be right, but it can also be used in good places.
Siegel's divine fire grew stronger and stronger, and soon surpassed its original level, after which the rate of growth slowed down. Heim's army struck in all directions, guided by Siegel into the dangerous areas. The Magic Ship's electromagnetic cannon, the Elemental Rune Guard, and the Magic Knights armed with the Fifty-Six Submachine Gun were invincible, and the creatures from the Outlands had no idea that they would be counterattacked to such a degree, and they were killed almost in a single face.
Some of the smart ones had already run away, others had gone into hiding, and Siegel wasn't worried about them. After regaining his divine power, the portal system has stabilized, and it is even more convenient than before. This time, there will be no monsters, only various relief supplies marked by the Magic Temple.
On the other hand, the Kingdom of Stars, without the order of His Highness Evan, was much slower than Haim Ling. The Imperial Council is still debating the issue of rescue. They gave the order to fight the demons, and several magic ships belonging to the royal family began to be dispatched. But they had no guidance from the magic gods, and they weren't sure where the enemy was.
From the prayers of the "believers", Siegel can know where the problem is, so that Heim's army will never be in the air, and from the prayers, he can also know which areas have suffered what kind of disaster and what kind of help is most needed. He can even pray, directly locate the wounded who are buried under the rubble. Where could there be a more efficient and safe way to dig into this kind of thing than an Earth Elemental Rune Guard?
As a result, his followers grew more and more religious. The people who had pinned their hopes on King Evan also began to believe in the gods. After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, one is a mortal king, and the other is a magical god, and the latter is naturally more likely to be the target of faith.
Evan slashed out with a sword, and more than five hundred clones died directly, which was his last madness. Because the flame had become dimmer and dimmer, it struggled to keep the light on, but in the end it was extinguished like a candle in the wind. Evan stopped, his head bowed, and fell into utter frustration. The remaining clones watched him silently, not saying a word. They were ordered to stop Evan, not kill him.
Siegel's divine fire is close to seventeen forks, and the relationship between victory and defeat is already very obvious. (To be continued.) )
