Chapter Eighty-Six, The Deal with Otis

Even Basa Pepper and Selena didn't give her this feeling, such a powerful feeling.

Alice felt the majestic spiritual power in her body, and couldn't help but feel excited.

"Thank my Lord for giving me strength."

Alice bowed down to the goddess.

The goddess nodded, "This is the body of the Son of God, and he will soon go to the Forsaken Land to assist you in your battle." You condense the Divine Pool Spirit Guard as soon as possible. ”

With that, the divine power retreated into the mist of the Spirit Sea, the immortal fire dissipated, and Herman regained control of his physical body.

"Yes." Alice bowed her head and was extremely religious.

……

"Ahem, the goddess is gone, get up."

Herman coughed, breaking the peace.

Alice looked up cautiously, only to see the boy take a step back, his face full of embarrassment. Then she stood up, looked at Herman for a moment, and stretched out her hand to him, "I'm Alice, and I'm honored to see the true face of the Son of God." ”

"My name is Herman." Herman held the slender palm, the touch was real, and he hesitated for a moment before he said, "I hope you don't leak out after you know my name." ”

The name is also kept secret?

A hint of doubt flashed in Alice's eyes, but she nodded solemnly.

Letting go of her hand, Alice asked again, "Son of God, where is this, and how do I go back?" ”

Herman was silent for a moment, and after receiving an answer, he said, "This summoning magic array can only last for three minutes, and you will be able to return automatically when the time is up." As for here, it's the underground world relative to us, and we're now in the depths of a volcano in the underworld, and you can look around. Oh yes, don't move around, we're standing on the corpse of a dragon right now, be careful not to fall. ”

"Dragons?"

Alice lowered her head, and sure enough, she couldn't help but be nervous when she saw the hot magma and the hideous dragon head with her eyes closed.

At the same time, he thought to himself: worthy of being the son of God favored by my lord, not only does he have a powerful servant, but even a dragon can kill him.

Although Alice's induction found Herman's strength to be low, she thought that it was her own strength that prevented her from perceiving the true power of the Son of God.

At this time, the space fluctuated, and an embarrassed figure fell from it.

Realm Wizard!

Herman's pupils shook, and his scalp tingled instantly. At this time, the magic array happened to fail, and Alice disappeared in front of her in an instant.

"This ...... Goddess, come out and help. ”

Herman frantically called out to the goddess, for fear that he would be killed by the other party if he was a little slower.

This is an existence two orders higher than him, and he can be seconds with almost a look.

But the goddess didn't make a move, but replied to him in the spiritual sea: "Don't worry, you don't necessarily need to do it." ”

What do you mean?

In confusion, a piece of information came to Herman's mind, which calmed him down a lot.

The wizard who suddenly broke in was none other than Odis, the High Priestess of Gloocrystal, who hastily left the battlefield in order to drive Lord Svein's corpse to appear on the battlefield and deceive Adonis and the others one more time. didn't know that the other party had already seen through his tricks.

But when he entered the magma lake, he was surprised to find that there were two more people out of thin air.

A source knight, a gifted wizard.

What frightened him was that the dragon crystal containing all of Lord Svein's soul power had completely disappeared, leaving no trace.

How can this work?

He was able to disguise the aura of the Dark Spirit Dragon by leveraging the soul power in the dragon crystal, and if he didn't have this dragon crystal, even if he drove the corpse to appear on the battlefield, he would be immediately recognized.

(What's going on here?) οΌ‰

Otis was flustered, but in the end, he had been in charge of a city for nearly a thousand years, and quickly stabilized his mind, and looked at the young knight standing on top of the dragon head, the dragon crystal disappeared, and it was definitely inseparable from him.

"Who are you and how did you get into the Dragon's Habitat?"

As soon as Otis spoke, Herman knew his identity, and Herman, who had confidence in his heart, was not in a hurry, and replied: "Our mercenaries who are responsible for escorting the caravan were forced to activate the spatial passage on the magic ring because they were ambushed by the wizards of Castlevania and were teleported here. ”

"Mercenaries?" Otis came to his senses and hurriedly asked, "Who are you protecting?" Where is he? ”

Herman replied, "It's Anderson." ”

"Anderson, is he dead?" Otis's eyes were red, and he said sadly, "Sure enough, it's not him, I didn't misread him." ”

Herman nodded: "I killed him." ”

"What?" Otis was stunned for a moment, and murderous intent appeared in the corner of his eye.

Seeing this, Herman was afraid that he would lose control, so he hurriedly explained the matter and emphasized: "If Anderson hadn't taken the initiative to expose the secret of the magic ring, my companion and I would have died under the poisonous smoke of that pharmacist, so what I said is absolutely true." ”

"I just didn't expect that we would be teleported here."

Otis, who knew the truth of the matter, was deeply shocked, his eyes dimmed a lot, and he muttered, "It's just my setting, so people who use magic rings will come back here." Only those who come back can leave with the true wealth of Gloom City......"

Listening to Otis's words, Herman came to his senses. It turned out that all this was a ploy of the high priest of the temple, and he had long known that there were spies in the temple, so he would design such a play.

Although he doesn't know the specific inside story, it is not difficult for Herman, who is accustomed to all kinds of routines, to guess that Otis used a trick to lure the snake out of the hole, and used the magic ring to lure the traitor to leak the secret, inducing the enemy to send someone to intercept and kill, and only the person who is really hunted down will activate the magic ring for spatial teleportation regardless of everything.

Those who don't come back are either dead or definitely moles.

It's just that Otis couldn't have imagined that Herman and Vera could turn the tables against the wind and kill Anderson and escape from death.

"There's one more question." Otis suppressed his anger and sadness, and asked calmly, "Child, do you know where Long Jing went?" ”

(It's coming!) οΌ‰

Herman took a deep breath and said indifferently: "It was taken away by my god." ”

"God?"

Otis frowned, he thought of a lot of answers, and even thought that this knight would resist death, but he didn't expect the other party to answer like this.

"Young man, you would be naΓ―ve to think that I would flinch when I hear the name of the gods." The momentum of the Ordis realm pressed towards Herman like a monstrous wave, and the magma lake below was uneasy and turbulent, "I advise you to confess honestly, otherwise you will regret it!" ”

It's a pity that Herman really has a serious god of eight hundred in his body, even if it is just a wisp of remnant soul, it is enough for him to ignore any coercion below the god level. Otis's mental coercion was not even a breeze to Herman.

Herman was as steady as Mount Tai in the invisible storm, and said without changing his face: "It is indeed the god who took the dragon crystal, and the god also told me that you only have two years left to live. ”

The invisible storm stopped abruptly, and Otis was shocked, frozen like a sculpture, and asked after a long time, "You...... Who are you talking about? ”

The strong momentum disappeared without a trace, like a person who was about to drown, and when he saw the driftwood, he also saw the poisonous snake above.

Herman replied, "My lord is the great Lord of the Underworld, the God of the Ancient Titans, and the Lord of the Eternal Fire. ”

Otis shook his head slowly and said with a wry smile: "I have traveled to several great city-states in the dark world, but I have never heard of this name. ”

Herman said, "Don't you know that the dark world is only a part of the plane, and my god comes from outside the plane. ”

Otis moved: "Just like the abyss? ”

Herman said: "Exactly. ”

Otis said, "Does your god tell you these things in order to get something from me?" ”

Herman nodded, and said the purpose of the goddess: "Serve my god, and I can give you another three thousand lives." ”

After saying that, Herman himself was a little unconvinced, and asked secretly: "Goddess, are you serious?" Do you really have the power to change people's lives? ”

The goddess said proudly: "The name of God is authority, since I am the lord of the underworld, and the souls of all living beings in the world are under my control, why is it difficult to increase the life of all things?" One word can be decided! ”

After hearing this, Herman felt that the origin of this goddess was not ordinary, and he asked cautiously: "The underworld, the plane where people go after death?" His understanding is like the legendary Netherworld in his previous life, the undead plane in Western fantasy novels.

But the goddess said: "The underworld is the ultimate destination of the soul, but ordinary mortals cannot reach there, and only mortal souls of the third order and above have enough strength to enter the underworld." ”

"Oh." Herman didn't press further.

But it is said that Otis heard that his breath stagnated, and then his heart beat wildly.

Realm wizards can only live for a maximum of three thousand years, which is an inviolable law of heaven and earth. If you want to prolong your life, there is no other way but to continue to ascend, and even the gods can only help believers continue to survive in this way.

Otis has been in charge of Gloomy Crystal City for nearly a thousand years, so he naturally knows this.

He frowned and said, "You want me to transform into a Faith Wizard and prolong my life by advancing to the Sanctuary?" ”

This kind of behavior is equivalent to directly selling his soul to the other party, and Otis is very hesitant even if he is about to die.

The higher the position, the less fear of death there is, and the only thing they fear is the loss of themselves. If there is no ego, continuing to live will also be just the walking dead.

This is also where elemental wizards despise believing wizards the most, believing that the other party is just a puppet that can move freely.

Herman was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked the goddess, and only after receiving a reply did he continue: "It doesn't have to be like this. As long as you establish a cult of gods in Gloomy Crystal City and spread the faith of God wholeheartedly, the goddess will intervene to extend your life and help Gloocrystal City survive the crisis. How is it? ”

Otis was shocked and asked, "I just need to establish a sect of God and spread His faith, don't I need to surrender?" ”

Herman smiled slightly: "Then the question is, are you willing to believe in the goddess?" If you wish, the goddess will naturally increase your strength to the level of Sanctuary Wizard. ”

The Sanctuary is the strongest under the god level, the apex of all mortal things, and can have a life close to immortality.

If it were Otis alone, he might not be able to advance for another three thousand years. But if he chooses to surrender, Otis knows that he will not be able to get rid of this god of the outer plane in this life.

He shook his head slowly: "I am willing to lead the Dark Crystal City to obedience, and hope that God will help us through the calamity." ”

In the end, he still didn't choose to believe in witches.

Herman raised his head, his eyes seemed to be able to see the movement outside the sky through the thick rock formations, and he said calmly: "Your sky knight can't support it, you go first, and my god will come later." ”

Otis looked deeply at the knight of unknown origin in front of him, can he believe his words?

After a moment, he smiled bitterly and disappeared without a trace.

"Good!"

There's nothing to lose anyway!
