831. For the perfection of the new profession, the dog planner is really exhausted (big boo)
It turns out that when the subjective initiative of the Snake is mobilized, the efficiency of the actions of this guy with the power of time is always surprisingly high.
Just as he was lured by Murphy with the genesis energy of the R-9 base and spent more than an hour learning the evil knowledge of the Twilight Cultists, this will be sent to contact the Mother Earth, and it will complete the task quickly and well.
Of course, it is obviously a little difficult for Manneth, a level that once walked sideways in the astral boundary, to contact the existence of this level of the Earth Mother God, and the gap in identity and status is not so easy to cross, but the Endless One is also a demigod with "connections", and it can pass on a message through the "door lackey" of the Earth Mother God.
Just as Tritan is a servant of the god of the sea, the Mother Earth goddess has her own follower demigods.
"Bloodhorn" Pad!
Like other astral demigods who have more or less "bad fate" with the Endless, Pad also has a grudge against Manneth, and its iconic broken horn is all due to the Endless One.
The two guys are supposed to have an unending relationship, but because of the recent development and direction of events, there is actually a bit of "common interest" between Pad and Mannis, and the cunning silver wolf made a deal with the owner of the sword in exchange for the wolf tooth holy sword that was polluted by the Lord of the Hunt, and the content of the transaction was Pad's broken horn.
This is a taboo.
After the gossip Tritan spread the word about it, the furious Pard is said to have fought the Silver Wolf several times in the shattered astral realm.
This really gives Murphy a pretty good reference, and makes him realize that sometimes it's not a bad thing to have more enemies, because your enemies have their own enemies, and those are the "potential friends" that you can reach out to do bad things with.
This is a little bit of wisdom that the Endless One "bestows" on handsome vampires, and Mannes used to rely on this hand to mix like a fish in water in the astral plane.
Friendships and other things are always easy to disrupt, but the special relationship of "common enemy" is obviously more precious in this era of frequent change.
"Alright, Brother Pad promised to help us deliver a message to the Mother Goddess of Gaia, but if the Mother Goddess doesn't respond, it's not for it to intervene."
The treacherous voice of the Endless soon sounded in Murphy's ears, and it hissed as he spat the snake hyacinth:
"Of course, a savvy vampire like my collaborator must know that Pad didn't help us deliver the message because he was kind to you, and I helped you get a job."
"Help it reclaim its broken horn?"
Murphy asked rhetorically:
"I've heard that thing has been made into a weapon by Ugson."
"No, no, no, Pard is a straightforward character, and his anger at this is not because his horn was gifted to mortals, but more because the silver wolf didn't consult with him before doing this."
The Endless One explained:
"Although Pad serves the Mother Earth Goddess, it has a part of the symbol of 'war', which is the legacy left to it by its old owner, so Pad is very interested in all kinds of strife and war, and it also favors the truly brave, so Pad asks for it to test the bravery of the wielder of the severed horn weapon.
If you can't beat them, use that weapon to kill them and help Pad find the next one to match. ”
"Ah, I've heard a similar story from Trissy."
Murphy rubbed his chin and asked:
"I also learned the secret of the fall of the war djinn Sulfur Gul from Kurkan, so Pad was in the service of Lord Sulfur Gulk before? But wasn't Vam a new god born from the body of war of Sulfurguk? Why didn't Pad continue to follow Him?
How do you think it's more compatible with Vam? ”
"Well, because the unsophisticated Vam was born with a group of companion Ice Hounds, probably because those barbarians had the habit of domesticating Ice Hounds to help hunt from the time they were born?"
The Endless pouted and explained:
"Vam also has his own followers of the demigods, and although Hayes is the 'new talent' of the demigods, it was determined that there was no place for Pard in the new war djinn when he was with Vam, unless Pad was willing to serve Vam with Hayes in a low voice.
But the question is, who doesn't have a temper anymore?
Pad is one of the first demigods born from the astral plane, it is the 'old qualification' of our industry, isn't it normal that the old master is not willing to condescend to serve the 'nouveau riche' after the old master hangs up?
Besides, Pad is the common origin of all Lothmon in the physical world.
You know, this creature has an innate connection to the earth, so it's only natural for Pad to turn his head and serve Mother Earth.
In short, don't get involved in the grievances and hatreds between our demigods.
I can only say that I understand this kind of thing, and it's too big to say clearly, and with my poor strength now, I can't protect you thoroughly, I mean, most of the demigods have their own bad debts, and even Cui Tan has his own enemies.
Your current strength, don't waste on this kind of thing, I think, even for a troublemaker like you, the trouble of the silver wolf is really enough once, what do you say? ”
"I understand, I just listen to gossip."
Murphy tossed a random ore up and down in his hand, ready to use it as a medium for himself to talk to Mother Earth, he was confident that he could get a response from the Mother Goddess, but he didn't expect Gaia's response to this matter to be amazing.
Before listening to the gossip and chatting, a force from the earth beneath his feet suddenly exploded, pulling Murphy's mind into a fantasy place.
Just as the previous conversation with Su took place in the face of the god of the north wind, the gods have the way of talking to the gods.
The dizziness of the earth-walking technique subsided slightly, and Murphy looked up and saw that he was in a strange space completely shaped by underground veins and gems, strange boulders formed strange underground ridges, and in the dark and dead breath, he could feel the pulse of the earth, like the heartbeat of the world.
Murphy looked down and saw that the lava crisscrossed the veins gave birth to countless extravagant stones, expensive gem mines were everywhere, and the glow of the natural oddities made every lady who strayed into it scream.
This is the face of Mother Earth, the master of all mountains and rivers, the heart of the world and the owner of the power of the earth.
But Ms. Gaia is not the same as Sue.
She has no physical form, and this realm that could be called the "Heart of the Earth" is her existence.
"Venerable Mother Gaia, the Brass Fortress is finished, the dwarves you banished are in serious trouble, and while a newborn god of wealth is willing to protect them, I guess there is still some incense between you and them, so I must get your permission before I get involved.
I mean, I have to know what kind of ending you'd like to see the Brass Dwarves have? ”
It was not the first time Murphy had met the gods, so he behaved quite decently, and he spoke his needs succinctly and waited for the Mother Goddess to respond.
This conversation is not destined to last long.
As a mortal with a special status, Murphy knew very well that the battle of the gods in the subspace was still going on at this time, and Gaia's ability to take the time to meet him actually showed the mother god's attitude towards this matter.
"You can save them?"
The low voice that pulsates like the earth echoes in Murphy's mind, it is the feeling of truly conversing with the world, heavy, majestic, not to be taken lightly, but beneath the heavy tone is a force like an earthquake disturbance and a volcanic eruption.
This represents Gaia's power and his majesty, the power of this Mother Earth Goddess is so powerful that the sun god Kurkan will also be afraid, after all, no matter how hot the sun is, it can't melt the earth, right?
"Of course, I can save them."
Murphy replied in the affirmative:
"The dwarven city is gone, their biggest trouble now is the encirclement and annihilation of the nezumi, I can't take them out of danger in an instant, but I can make the nezumi no longer obey the damn subspace mind.
They will be given a precious respite to find a way to escape before the hordes of gnolls and kobolds charge.
But this requires your permission. ”
"They're not my family anymore."
Gaia replied:
"Their lives and deaths have nothing to do with me."
Well, that's true, but Murphy can just hear a grievance from it, like the stubbornness between men and women who are very angry and unwilling to bow their heads, which makes Murphy feel that even gods can't escape the emotional fluctuations brought by that gender.
Of course, gods have no gender.
As can be seen from the seamless switch between the gods of wealth and women before, they did not choose to appear in front of the world in this image because they did not choose.
"But I saw Lord Hadlan's last-minute gesture of death, the Ancient One who died in the burst with your emblem, who longed to return to your arms, and as far as I know, not all brass dwarves have renounced your faith."
Murphy softly persuaded:
"Didn't you give them a chance at the Black Flame Pass?
So many brass dwarven warriors are willing to die in your holy land, and they have made a choice that will tear apart the future of that race, but I don't think a good person like you will disappoint the believers who have high expectations.
So, I suggest you give them one more chance, one last chance."
"I've already given it, it's they who don't cherish it!"
Gaia threw down a sentence and began to retract her strength.
This kind of running all the way just to give a refusal has proved her true thoughts, but Murphy also wants to give a little face to the duplicitous and face-loving stubborn mother goddess, so he already has a plan in his heart about what to do.
Before the Mother Goddess left, Murphy said:
"Wait a minute, Gaia, I hope you can take time out of the tragic subspace god war to pay attention to the seed of faith that originated in Transasia, and the thing called 'Holy Light' is related to the future of the war between the physical world and the subspace.
Kurkan gave it the purification of fire, Sue gave it the power of war, and Avalon may have given it a symbol of healing, but it is not complete.
The Light I was looking forward to lacked the strength of the defenses that guarded the good.
Mimori, that has always been your domain. ”
"But you're creating an 'Almighty God,' vampire Murphy."
The Mother Goddess of Gaia whispered:
"In case it, like the Lord of the Hunt, was polluted at the beginning of its birth."
"No, it won't."
Murphy said in a firm tone:
"The source of faith that makes up the Light is not in this world!
No matter how great the subspace is, it can't inject darkness into the Light before it is born, not to mention that the teachings of the Light held by my group of warriors already have an extension of 'light and darkness', which is enough to reserve a change for it in times of crisis.
Please help it!
For example, I am about to help those who are in trouble. ”
"Deal? I hate that word. ”
Gaia responded:
"I should have dealt with you, but if all this was related to the future of subspace and even the physical world, if all of this was what the Creator wanted to see, then . As you wish! ”
"Buzz"
Murphy's mind was "kicked" back into his body in the next moment.
Mother Earth's movements are not gentle at all, presumably because Murphy is trying to make a deal with her, and the birth of the god of trade is based on the collective depravity of the brass dwarves.
But anyway, the deal was done.
The handsome vampire rubbed his aching skull and turned around, looking at the brain crystal in the jar beside him, he stretched out his hand to place it on the surface of the irregular giant crystal, and immediately decided to destroy it.
"I mean, are you so sure this thing is going to get the nezumi out of the army?"
In Murphy's ear, the Endless One asked, with a hint of concern:
"Those guys were created by cultists, and who knows what strange things the cultists wrote into their life source when they created them, what if you unravel the uncontrollable nature of the group consciousness that makes them even more crazy?
Don't be self-defeating.
Judging by the duplicity shown by Lady Gaia, he did pay attention to the brass dwarf, and if something happened at this juncture, it would be a big problem.
I'm not worried about you being preoccupied by a careful-eyed god, it's mainly your career."
"Collect your thoughts, no matter how bad this matter is, it can't affect you."
Murphy broke through Mannes' real fears, saying:
"Worst-case scenario, wouldn't it be okay if you kicked me?"
"You're saying it simply. I've put so much sunk cost into it, it's like a bet, Murphy, the more I invest in you, the less easily I can give up on you. ”
The Endless One sighed and said:
"Don't think that your thoughts can hide from me, alas, I have met someone unladylike, and I have been completely tied to you to death.
Hurry up and finish this, I've told your poor heir, Lena, to find the Creator's Teleportation Board in the ruins of the Wanderer's headquarters, and until it is cleared and connected, the road to the Gorgon Pass will be opened.
I know you won't miss it. ”
"Well, protect the Dharma for me."
Murphy took a deep breath and began to mobilize the Omega program, a pale glow poured out from his fingertips, the program that had just been upgraded had two new functions, [Seal] and [High Energy Purification], and now Murphy was going to use this High Energy Purification.
Just by the name, you know how this thing works.
As the glow converged, Murphy's left hand became extremely hot, and touching the surface of the Brain Crystal in the Vat gave the thing a sign of melting.
Murphy didn't quite know how the Dusk Cultists created this thing, but it was definitely related to subspace power, and since it wasn't for use but just simple destruction, the next thing to do was fairly simple.
Ah, my fiery left hand is shouting for me to clench on to victory! So, it's you, Rock Breaker!
To give! Old! Child! Break!
"Bang"
There was a muffled sound.
The crack burst out on the irregular mind crystal, at first it was just a gap, but then the cobweb-like black crack burst out on top of the crystal, and the scorching glow continued to seep into the rift, causing it to melt faster.
But Murphy also felt the "will of the race" contained in this mental crystal.
Fragmentary visions pulsed before his eyes, from the birth of the first nezumi in the experimental chamber of the R-9 base, to the completion of the basic genetic blueprint of an entire population, to the ignorance of the first nezumi leaving the base under the guidance of the Dusk Cultists to face the sky and the scorching sun.
Not only can he see the development of the rat people's civilization, but he can also feel the emotions and mental fluctuations contained in these fragments.
Nezumi are really stupid!
But that doesn't mean they don't have emotions, and the scholars of the scholar faction have emasculated the rat people's emotions to the extreme, but they still can't touch the instincts in their hearts.
Fear, worship, pain.
These instinctive reactions of the mind are enough to give birth to the essence of the so-called "racial will" in the connection of an entire race, and like all other life, they want to live.
"Then live, in the name of the Creator, I grant you freedom."
In the entanglement of thousands of illusions, Murphy, who was close to the limit, closed his eyes and whispered.
With another eruption of the Omega program, an entire mind crystal filled with a scorching glow from within, and the sound of glass shattering sounded as light as Murphy's stab of necessary evil.
The illusion that Murphy perceived in his mind was also magnified almost infinitely at this moment, and for a moment, he felt that he had been divided into countless parts that existed in the ignorant minds of countless rat people.
They are at a loss.
They are waiting for orders.
So Murphy, at the moment of retreat, said:
"Let's go, the future is here!"
