208 Strange Worlds (4)

The reason why those foreign gods appeared in this world in ancient times was to find the land of the ancestors.

But what exactly that place was, and why they were looking for it, God didn't really know.

Because this matter is an absolute secret, only the lord of the gods who ruled over all the foreign gods knows about it.

But until the other party died, he didn't reveal any information, as if it was some kind of taboo.

The battle was very dangerous, and there was no chance for God to torture or threaten the other party to tell the truth, so this matter had to be stopped.

He didn't take it too seriously, either.

Because He believes that the so-called land of the Ancestors has nothing to do with this world.

After all, those foreign gods have been looking for hundreds of thousands of years, but they haven't found the slightest clue here, and most of them have decided to give up in the end.

Is there really a possibility that they will get into infighting because of this?

So after that, God basically didn't pay attention to it.

However, not long ago, when it was realized that Lucifer might not be the original inhabitant of this world, this judgment was shaken.

They are not aborigines, but they are very stubborn in wanting to protect this world, and they don't want this place to be coveted by foreign enemies......

Could this be the reason why Lucifer is so kind?

can become the king of hell, and the other party obviously has nothing to do with kindness.

That's only because he has something to do with the world.

And what he is asking for is actually easy to judge - you only need to compare the demands of his "fellow villagers" to see it clearly.

There are two groups of fellow villagers.

One wave pursues clues to the Land of the Ancestors, and another requires the source of magic.

The latter could not have been Lucifer's target, as he had come very early, but he had little desire or exploration of the source of magic.

Therefore, the answer can only be the former.

He was looking for the Land of the Ancestors.

The purpose of instigating God to slaughter the gods is naturally to clear up competitors in order to monopolize the clues that exist somewhere in this world.

The reason why God is prevented from digging into the root of magic is that once the root cause is taken away, the world will be cut off from life and will fall into a state of destruction, and the clues will disappear as a result.

As for why reincarnation was created and counterattacked in another world, it is easier to understand.

This world has been targeted, and even if it doesn't counterattack, the enemy will come here sooner or later.

And once it comes, the information of the Ancestral Land is very likely to be known by the current wave of enemies.

This will obviously attract greater attention from the enemy.

Because the Ancestral Lands seem to be more important than the source of magic, and if the relevant information is really exposed, Lucifer will inevitably face some new competitors.

Therefore, it is better to turn the passive into the active, move the battlefield to another world, stir up the situation, and look for an opportunity to completely solve those potential competitors.

"I even suspect he's close to finding the exact location of that place."

Above the slowly rippling sea of clouds, God, who appears in the form of a luminous human, basically finishes telling the understanding of this.

The Lust Demon King in the form of a butterfly fell into a state of deep groaning for a long time.

I'm not sure what kind of place the Ancestral Land is, but since it is so valued, it will definitely be able to greatly increase people's strength.

That's why He judged that Lucifer was about to find it, not that he had already found it.

After all, the current Lucifer's whereabouts have always been hidden, and there seems to be no qualitative improvement in strength compared to the past.

"So, that's the real reason why you stopped your escape plan and returned to the whole country?"

The Demon King then said clearly, "Do you want to get a piece of the Ancestral Land?" ”

"To be precise, one of the reasons."

God replied very frankly, "I never underestimated Lucifer, and even thought that I was completely inferior to him in all aspects except in strength." ”

"And since he takes it so seriously, it means that the place must be important."

It's important, even more important than the possible way to become stronger in another world.

After all, in his opinion, Lucifer was originally from that world, and he had a high vision, but he did not hesitate to spend a lot of energy to come here from a long distance to find it.

Words can lie, but deeds cannot, so it is self-evident which is more important, and naturally He will not give up this opportunity to snatch what the enemy values.

Of course, as the master of this world, he can set multiple goals.

While keeping an eye on Lucifer, he also explores the other world and finds the source of his magic so that he doesn't end up losing the scramble and getting nothing.

It's actually hard to keep an eye on Lucifer.

For what He needed was not to control Lucifer's position, but to know the progress of His goals and the corresponding actions.

In other words, God needs to master Lucifer's core secrets.

This is not something that can be easily done.

It needed a spy who could be trusted by Lucifer to lurk around him and give him a message.

The goddess of nature is not qualified for this, and neither are the archangels who may be disconnected from Lucifer.

But the Demon King of Lust can.

On the surface, this demon king was one of the subordinates who betrayed Lucifer in the first place, but secretly, this betrayal was not real.

Her betrayal was actually the reason why Lucifer saw that the situation was irreparable and deliberately ordered it.

lest she be sacrificed in vain.

From this point, it can be seen that the Demon King of Lust is a subordinate that Lucifer cares about a lot, and even a real descendant.

Moreover, she is not the only descendant.

Behind her, there is also a group of descendants-

Not all of his subordinates betrayed the King of Hell, and as the founder of Hell, Lucifer actually had a lot of loyal supporters.

After his suspended death, the Cluster was liquidated by the Seven Demon Kings on the throne, and most of the members died.

But there are still a small number of people who have been secretly taken in by the Demon King of Lust, and in the past thousand years, they have been thinking about how to avenge Lucifer, the master, behind the scenes.

It can be said that this part of the subordinates has been tested by time and calamity, and their loyalty is beyond doubt.

As long as Lucifer does not intend to fight alone, he will inevitably contact and reuse them in the future, and God's act of planting spies will succeed.

As for why his loyal subordinates, who have been tested, are on His side?

That's because, of course, the loyalty of this subordinate is not pure.

Lucifer's act of falling from heaven to the lower realm to create hell was tacitly approved and supported by God.

Although this support seems very stupid now, He is not stupid.

At that time, he did not fully trust the other party, let alone do nothing, and let the other party become the king of hell without control.

The Demon King of Lust is one of God's means of guarding against Lucifer.

The original lust was one of the angels who followed Lucifer's fall, and her other identity was actually a "doppelganger" split from God.

Using his own doppelganger to lurk around the other party is naturally because he doesn't think that other people can lurk in the cunning Lucifer for a long time without revealing suspicion.

He doesn't even trust Himself.

So this doppelganger is actually an independent individual, and the connection with Him is very clean.

In the early days, even the memories of being a spy were sealed.

Because of this, he was absolutely confident that the identity of this spy had never been suspected by Lucifer.

And the next lurking ......

"To be sure, I'll continue to seal your memories so that he doesn't detect them."

The glowing humanoid on the sea of clouds then said, "Until the clues of the Ancestral Land appear." ”

"Are you so vigilant?"

The Demon King of Lust was dissatisfied, "I don't think it's necessary to do so unless he knows how to read minds." ”

"He doesn't necessarily have the ability to read your memories, but he has the ability to spot anomalies in your behavior."

God replied solemnly, "Lucifer cannot be viewed in a conventional way, it will only get us into trouble." ”

has been separated to the point of independence, of course, there is no way to be forcibly driven by him.

In a sense, this Demon King of Lust is actually another Him.

In other words, the relationship between the two is more like that of "twin" brother and sister.

Therefore, the other party will not have a fear of Him, nor will he be like a puppet who works hard and complains, and has to be coaxed to do something.

And he believed that it was necessary to be on the highest alert in the face of Lucifer's enemy.

This is also the reason why he basically didn't do anything in the face of all kinds of conspiracies before - if he didn't do it, he might be caught, but if he did, he would definitely be caught!

As a demon king, lust obviously doesn't understand God's psychology, after all, this is completely incompatible with his invincible power.

But she is not a child, she does not agree with it, but she will not really resist this task.

After a few more complaints, the butterfly finally obeyed the arrangement, and was raised a little by the glowing humanoid hand, and fell into a coma.

Sober again, she was back inside hell.

"What's going on?"

"I think I just passed out?"

The Demon King of Lust, who had completely forgotten his true identity, muttered to himself, his tone puzzled.

But then her attention shifted to her surroundings.

Because she found that there was a new change in hell at this time!

Before that, the whole hell was plunged into chaos and darkness.

There were a large number of dusty points of light floating around the void, like countless stars in the universe.

And now, it's all gone!

There is no darkness, no evil, and even no endless expanse.

Yes, just a cramped room that matched the size of her current body.

The walls of the room are all silver, like metal casting, and the surface is flat, so that there is no trace of the door or exit.

There was no decoration or furniture around, and it was extremely empty.

A ball of light floating in the central area is the only "item" here, and the blue light source released from its body illuminates the surrounding silver ground.

The overall form is quite similar to that of the guardian knight.

"Could it be another apocalypse created by the master?"

She had a guess about it.

But unlike the war knight, at the moment, this "knight" does not seem to have any spirituality at all, and is motionless and frozen in mid-air, as if he is completely dead.

And as she touched it with her spiritual power, she found that this new "guardian knight" was completely different from the previous one.

[Reshape the body]

[New Bloodline]

[Into the Human World]

[Reincarnation]

[……]

A large number of "options" appear on a translucent panel that flashes out of thin air, and the color is gray, as if it means that it is not selectable.

Except for a quietly existing integral in the lower left corner: 0, there is no other possibility of opening.

But as he continued to scroll down, the Demon King became more and more surprised.

Because behind this panel, there seems to be some very amazing knowledge hidden!

[Plane Teleportation]

[Igniting the Divine Fire]

[Thirteen Ways to Enslave Astral Giants]

[How to Become God]

[……]

The further down she looked, the more messy her mood became, as if she was seeing some absurd fantasy information.

But like a turtle, he saw the world's most high-end things, and his heart was full of unbelievable emotions.

"Is all this knowledge true?"

……

Such suspicion is not unique to the Demon King of Lust.

The other Demon Kings who had been stripped of their authority and most of their power, but who were still alive, also saw everything in that panel.

But instead of the slightest joy or eagerness, they were filled with panic.

It's just that their current situation is the sameβ€”all trapped in that silver room!

The size of the room matches the body type.

But even though the area is as wide as a plain, there is still only that ball of light in it.

There are no exits, no frills, and being in it, you can't see anything else, it's like you're in prison.

Relying on the apostles existing in the human world, several former demon kings were able to transfer their wills, but the main body could not take half a step out of the room at all.

The silver walls are like the hardest metal in the world, and no matter how they hit and collide, they will not be damaged in the slightest!

Obviously, after the remodeling, Hell has transformed into a form that they cannot comprehend.

And all this is firmly controlled by Lucifer, the great enemy.

So even though they saw everything hidden in the panel, they didn't bother to pay attention to it.

They had betrayed Lucifer.

Now that he has become the prisoner of the other party, whether he is dead or alive next, do you need to think about it more?

But it didn't take long for the panic to dissipate.

It's not that they've found a way out.

Instead, they found that even those who escaped from hell in advance were involuntarily sucked back as time passed!

Devils, demons, hellhounds, flame giants, evil spirits......

No matter where you are, no matter how strong you are, as long as you have the power of hell in your body, you will inevitably be "devoured" by hell and imprisoned by the silver house!

"So, all the previous struggles were in vain?"

Such a terrifying phenomenon made the few remaining demon kings despair, and finally began to regret their betrayal of Lucifer.

However, it clearly doesn't matter what they think.

Losing their authority is equivalent to losing their identity as demon kings, and at the moment, apart from the cold and hard metal walls, these former demon kings can't see anything else related to hell.

Not to mention continuing to exercise the powers of the past.

……

"But why does the teacher keep them?"

The empress was hiding on a mountain top somewhere in the empire, so her brows were furrowed, and her expression was very different from before.

It's like a different person!
