And the River Styx has also inexplicably produced a new ability, after the death of any creature, its soul will disappear in an instant, and it will be drained by the River Styx. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
This is the root cause of the inability of those divine envoys to take souls.
The changes in the world avenues like this can be regarded as very drastic, so the avenues that Jia Kedao has sensed are much more than before.
However, this is not the end of the story, there are still some flaws.
Jacodao pondered for a moment, greeted Zagrath, and disappeared from the undead plane.
The Kingdom of Damini was a small kingdom sandwiched between the Yarumi Empire and the Hughski Empire.
To say that the area of the Damini Kingdom is not small, it is more than half of the Limidi Kingdom, with an area of 2.3 million square kilometers, if it is placed on the earth, it will not be a small country.
But compared to the two most powerful empires in the main physical plane, the Kingdom of Damini is a small country.
The total area of the Yarumi Empire was more than 110 million square kilometers, and the total area of the Huschi Empire was more than 130 million square kilometers.
It is impossible to find such two empires on earth.
In the beginning, the two empires were directly adjacent to each other, so there were many frictions and even wars.
Due to the destruction of the people's livelihood 2ā,wāww., the destruction of the people's lives, will affect the number of people, and thus affect the belief in the gods.
Thus, after the end of a war that killed more than 21 million people, more than 30 churches that spread the faith in the two empires intervened at the same time and forced the two empires to sign the Treaty of Damini.
It was precisely because of this treaty that the Kingdom of Damini was born.
To put it bluntly, the two empires ceded all the lands along the adjacent borders and put a descendant of the new gods as kings, thus achieving peace between the two empires.
In this way, the kingdom of Damini is also known as the longest and narrowest country, and the length of its territory is the length of the adjacent borders of the two empires. It is about 10,000 kilometers long, and the width is less than 50 kilometers at its narrowest point.
Well, sandwiched between two empires, this kingdom of Damini is very different from other countries.
The first is freedom of belief, where any church can spread the faith, as long as the gods it believes in are the true gods.
In addition, the Kingdom of Damini does not have its own army, only a security squad in charge of law and order.
After all, on its borders, the empires of Yarumi and Huschi had many times more troops than the population of this small country. Even if the Damini Kingdom is a soldier, when a war breaks out, it will be difficult to protect itself, so it simply does not set up an army.
It is precisely because of this that in the kingdom of Damini, there are no other cities except the royal city, and some are just small towns.
In front of the two empires, the city is such a defensive thing. Sincerity is of little use.
However, the commerce of this country is considered to be the most developed in the main physical plane, even more so than the headquarters of the Church of Fortune, which worships the god of wealth, Grandius.
Both large empires needed to trade through this country and procure what they lacked.
Thus, the country is rich. From top to bottom, from the royal family to the people, it is all for the existence of commercial trade services.
Several large chambers of commerce formed by the royal family themselves even have a certain influence in several empires.
Well. This may have been a means of self-preservation for the Damini royal family.
In the future, if the two empires go to war, the kingdom of Damini will be destroyed, and then it will be destroyed. Members of the royal family were also able to use these large chambers of commerce to flee and leave a way out for themselves.
In short, when Jia Kedao entered this Damini Kingdom, he couldn't help but feel a little familiar, and the commerce here was already in a deformed development.
Just like the county town of Beishan, whether it is a street or a corner, there are shops everywhere, and everyone is rushing to do business, regardless of whether they can make money or not, but the owners of the rental shops are cheaper.
Jia Kedao was not wearing a robe at this time, and his clothes were tattered, as if he was called a flower child.
There are many guys like this in the small towns within the kingdom of Damini.
After all, the Damini Kingdom is very commercially prosperous, and people from many countries have come here in an attempt to make a fortune, but many more people have lost so much that they don't even have the money to go back, and eventually have to sell their strength or beg along the streets.
Jacodao wanted to train Zaglas with some followers of the Grim Reaper.
This is an inevitable process, although Zagras's identity as a god of death is granted by the book of life and death, and there is no godhead, but in this world, many things still have to be carried out according to the avenue of this world.
The so-called Grim Reaper believers are not those necromancers.
Necromancers may seem to be believers in the Grim Reaper, but they are not.
Those necromancers have the characteristics of the mage profession, they are keen to pursue the ultimate in magic, do not worship the gods, in short, most mages, regardless of any attributes, are not devout believers.
To put it simply, this is like a warrior, and it may not be a reason to believe in the god of war.
Profession and faith do not necessarily equate.
This Damini kingdom is located between two empires, with a prosperous commerce and a large population, and all major churches have built temples and altars here, and their beliefs are relatively free, but it is a good place to spread their faith.
The only trouble is that there are too many churches, the fierce competition for faith, and the emphasis on business from the official to the non-governmental, so that the degree of faith piety is generally low.
But for Jia Kedao, it couldn't be better.
The small town of Price, close to the Yarumi Empire, was a distribution center for large quantities of grain, and the thick stone-paved roads were crushed by the endless flow of animal carts.
Beast carts traveling between Price and Cancy brought large quantities of grain from the Hughski Empire to the Yarumi Empire.
It is said that this year's Hughski Empire has a bumper grain harvest, while the Yarumi Empire's grain production has decreased, making business opportunities flourish here.
A gorgeously dressed but embarrassed middle-aged man squatted at the mouth of an alley connected to the main road, his eyes were a little glazed, looking at the crowd and animal carts, and he did not move for a long time.
There was a hint of desperation in his gaze.
Three days ago, he was the owner of a trading house, and although it was not as good as the royal family or even the aristocratic chamber of commerce, it was second to none in the neighborhood.
But now, he's no longer a penny. All the wealth, even the borrowed money, was lost in the three days when the price of food plummeted, and even the most trusted steward swept away the last of his possessions and fled with his most beloved concubine.
With thousands of gold coins in foreign debt, he felt that perhaps it would be more cost-effective for him to die.
The scorching weather, coupled with the fact that he did not eat or drink for several days, the middle-aged man could no longer support it, and he fell down as soon as he saw a flower.
And the abnormality of the middle-aged man fell in the eyes of other passers-by, which only attracted them to take a few more looks.
Seeing the middle-aged man fall, a group of beggars who had been staring at him for a long time swarmed up. The pickpockets of the clothes, the pants of the pantsless, and some small bits and pieces of their bodies all fell into the hands of these beggars.
In less than five minutes, this middle-aged man became a ** all over his body, without any traces.
For these beggars, although this middle-aged man is already poor, the clothes, bits and pieces on his body are also worth a lot of money.
The beggars dispersed, and the middle-aged man lay on the ground. Little by little, the vitality of life left his body.
Eventually, several idle people who were in charge of cleaning the town came up, threw the middle-aged man into a board car, and dragged him out of town. Dumped it in a wilderness.
When the middle-aged man woke up from his coma, he found that there was an extra beggar in front of him.
"You've already died once. ā
The beggar laughed.
The middle-aged man touched his body with some horror, it was extremely cold, and his heart, which was beating enthusiastically, became extremely silent.
Ultimately. The middle-aged man accepted the fact of his death and became a believer in death.
Soon, the number of such Grim Reaper believers grew. They worship death and have the ability to bring the dead back to life, but every time they save someone, they take a person's life.
This has made the Grim Reaper's followers more and more influential.
To say that death is a terrible thing for mortals.
No one wants to die, especially those who are in high positions, members of the royal family.
In this way, the belief in the god of death spread from the kingdom of Damini to the other two empires.
Time passed bit by bit, and the war between the Fertility God and the Giant God had come to an end.
No matter how powerful the Giant God System is, the original intrigue within it makes it impossible for the Giant Gods to truly unite at all.
Eventually, after the Tree Giant Realm was destroyed by the Fertility Gods, the Giant God System, which had only been temporarily united, collapsed.
Whether it is the Lord of the Titans, or the Lord of the Hill Giants and other giant gods, they have all retracted to their own realms, and in the main material plane, as the other giant races retreated, the Pabula Goblin Kingdom was unable to support itself, and finally had to hand over the collegiate letter of surrender.
There is no doubt that with the victory of the war, the Fertility Divine System immediately launched a sumptuous feast of partition.
In the entire kingdom of the Pabla Goblins, only the members of the royal family are allowed to continue to worship the Lord of the Hill Giants, while the rest of the goblins are free to worship other gods at will.
Of course, this is just the surface, with the collapse of the giant god system, the lord of the hill giant does not dare to have the slightest objection to the requirements put forward by the Abundance God system, and the freedom of belief of the Pabula Goblin Kingdom is undoubtedly to allow the Rich God system to fully penetrate the tentacles of faith into the Pabula Goblin Kingdom.
In addition, the major human kingdoms that worship the gods of abundance, the principality has also expanded its territory a lot, and these territories used to be the territory of the major giant races.
With the defeat of the Giant God System, it was impossible for these giant territories to continue to be kept, and the major giant races had to relocate to more remote and inhospitable areas, giving up these rich places to the human nations.
But as the news of the victory of the Rich God System over the Giant God System spread, the elves, dwarves and other God systems were worried about the fate of the Giant God System, a god completely fell, and the territory of faith was divided.
Although the belief of the giant races in their own race's protector god is difficult to shake, as they move to more inhospitable places, the rate of population reproduction will be greatly reduced.
Several subspecies of giants do not have a strong ability to reproduce, and can be said to be very weak.
In this way, I am afraid that these giant gods will collapse.
At this point, the hapless Lord of the Tree Giants, Omani, fell, and his priesthood was taken by Scott, the Lord of the Frost Giants.
Of course, the gods of abundance were not much interested in the two priesthoods of Omani, the lord of the tree giants.
Tree giants, tree people. These two priesthoods are completely for the giant gods, and even if other gods obtain the priesthoods of these two races, it is very difficult to fuse.
But Scott, the Lord of the Frost Giants, is different, the morphological differences between the Frost Giants and the Tree Giants seem to be very large, but in fact they have the same ancestor, and they are all descendants of the same ancestor, but for various reasons, they have branched off halfway.
If you let those Tree Giants, or Treants believe in a human god. It's a lot of difficulty, but if you make them believe in the Lord of the Frost Giants, then it's not that hard.
After seizing the priesthood of the Lord of the Tree Giants, Scott, the Lord of the Frost Giants, used the power of the priesthood to cleanse the interior of the Tree Giants race.
In fact, most of the Dryads believe in the priesthood of Dryads, but there are always a few who identify with the fallen Omani.
Naturally, Skoad wouldn't leave a tree giant like this.
Otherwise, after a long time, the fallen lord of the Tree Giant, Omani, may be resurrected.
With the great victory of the Fertility God System, some thoughts of the human gods began to emerge.
Just when one of Jaco's doppelgangers was busy developing Bleachers. He received a notice from Puni Dipuni, the Lord of Fertility, to go to the land of Fertility to convene a meeting of the gods, which was said to be attended by other gods.
Jia Kedao pondered for a while, but didn't deduce what was going on.
After all, it involves the gods. It is very difficult to calculate it in this world, and it is easy to attract the attention of the gods.
After that, Jacodao turned into a giant wolf. disguised as the King of the Cold Wind, he hurried towards the fertile land.
When Jia Kedao entered the fertile land and rushed to the Fertility Divine Palace, he couldn't help but be shocked. Next to the huge ball of light of the Lord of Abundance, there was another huge ball of light.
In contrast to the softness of the Lord of Abundance, this new giant cluster of light was like a sun, emitting undisguised light and heat towards all sides, and giving people a very sacred feeling.
Kanimis, Lord of the Dawn!
Jia Kedao didn't even have to think about it, the name immediately came to mind.
I'm afraid that other gods than Kanimis, the Lord of the Dawn, could not emit such light and heat.
Carnimis, Lord of the Dawn, powerful divine power, godhead rank seventeen, priesthood: light, hope, salvation, fire.
This powerful divine power is called the god of pure human beings, and the believers who believe in him are all human beings, and there is no alien race, and this powerful divine power's disgust and hatred for alien races is also the strongest among the human gods.
There are also three gods under the command of this Lord of the Dawn.
Papras the protector, Jestip, the god of the law of justice, Gwendoline, the god of beautiful motherhood.
Papras, Protector, medium divine power, godhead rank thirteen, priesthood: protection, knighthood, mercy, loyalty, integrity.
Jestip, the god of justice and law, has medium divine power, the twelfth level of godhead, and the priesthood: justice, law, judge, prosecutor, and military judge.
Gwendoline, the god of beautiful motherhood, medium divine power, godhead level eleven, priesthood: beauty, motherhood, family, child protection.
These three gods are all medium divine powers, so the Dawn God System does not seem to have many gods, but its strength is not weak.
At least, the Lord of Abundance did not dare to slack off when he saw the Lord of Dawn.
Then, Jacodao looked at the other gods in the palace.
Mowsky, the god of the hunt, and Mister, the girl of the spring dawn, arrived unusually early, and next to them were three strange gods.
I think it's the three gods in the Dawn God System.
Jia Kedao's eyes swept away, and just looking at the divine power aura revealed on the bodies of these three gods, he recognized their identities.
The big tin can, which was covered in the knight's armor, should have been the protector Papras, and although the mask had been removed, the beard on his face matched his serious expression, giving people a sense of intimidating anger.
On the contrary, Jestipu, the god of justice and law, was smiling and talking happily with the god of hunting, and the beautiful young woman who covered her mouth and chuckled from time to time beside the young girl of spring dawn should be Gwendorin, the god of beautiful motherhood.
Now that Jia Kedao has arrived, it is naturally impossible to stand at the gate of the Divine Palace without entering, nodding towards the two powerful divine powers above, and after paying attention, Jia Kedao walked towards the four gods.
The relationship between Mowsky, the god of the hunt, and the King of the Cold Wind, disguised by Jakkodao, is not too bad. Therefore, after seeing Jia Kedao coming, he hurriedly greeted him and introduced the two gods Jia Kedao and Jestipu to each other.
The gods were all equal, at least here, and Jacodao quickly settled into the conversation between the two gods.
Time passed quickly, and gradually, the gods in the shrine became more and more.
The gods of victory, Ter and Hale, the god of the road, Kuysifer, and other gods are constantly arriving.
Finally, after the arrival of the swamp lord Tanthusis, the greetings in the shrine came to an end.
I've said it before. The smell of the swamp lord Tantusis is a little big, and this is no longer within the scope of divine power.
Even the wine demigod Josemia privately wondered if Tanthusis, the lord of the swamp, was really going to seek the priesthood of stinking, otherwise why could he stink like this.
And the one who came later than the swamp lord Tanthusis was the Lord of the Frost Giants, Scott.
The giant god has been busy gathering his faith lately, so coming late is nothing at all.
Scott nodded to the gods and then joined the gods.
When he saw Scord arrive, the Lord of the Morning stopped talking to the Lord of Abundance and turned his gaze to Scott.
Being targeted by a powerful divine power is not a pleasant feeling. Even though Scott had absorbed the Divine Rank of the Tree Giant and his godhead level had been raised to level seven, making him a weaker godhead, it would still be difficult for him to withstand this kind of attention.
OK. The Lord of the Dawn glanced at Scott and then looked back.
Then the Lord of Abundance coughed lightly and began to introduce the gods of the Dawn Divine System.
At this time, Scott didn't listen at all, but his heart was pondering the gaze of the Lord of the Morning Sun.
As a staunch humanist. There was no doubt a hint of disgust in the gaze of the Lord of Dawn, well, in fact, the Lord of the Swamp, Tantusis, had enjoyed this treatment when he came in.
The Swamp Lord Tanthusis is a giant crocodile over two hundred meters long. It's natural to receive such a gaze.
Skoud could feel that the Lord of Dawn was looking at him with something more, but what it was, Skord hadn't figured out yet.
After the Lord of Abundance introduced the gods of the Dawn, the Lord of the Dawn unceremoniously expressed his intentions.
The two major human god systems of Dawn and Abundance joined forces to deal with elves, dwarves, orcs and other gods, expand the living space of human beings, and by the way, sweep away the demon army that invaded the main material plane.
In short, the Lord of Dawn's speech made the gods of abundance a little stunned.
Completely eradicate the alien god system, this suggestion is too terrifying, right?
Although many, many years ago, the human gods fought several divine wars with other god systems and won victories, thus laying the foundation for the survival of the human race in the main material plane and even some other planes, and occupying the most fertile land, so that the number of human races has continued to increase, and now it is almost the overlord in the main material plane.
But in these god wars, the price paid by the human gods is not small.
Speaking of which, first of all, we have to talk about the Lord of the Morning Dawn.
The Lord of Dawn was a god who rose 50,000 years ago, and before him, there was a powerful god among the human gods known as the Lord of Light.
Of course, although the human god system has not yet been formed, the human gods are much more united than they are now, and the Lord of Light can be regarded as the spiritual leader of the human gods at that time.
Its godhead level is said to be as high as nineteen!
But in the last god war, this Lord of Light was besieged and fell by the main gods of the elves, orcs, dwarves and other gods, of course, the main gods of these gods did not fall well, and were directly dragged into the water by the self-explosion of this Lord of Light.
It is said that the Lord of Dawn picked up a fragment of the Godhead of the Lord of Light and became a god.
In addition to this extremely hardened Lord of Light, the fallen gods among the human gods include the god of healing, the god of goodness, Senny, the god of war, and five other gods.
After the dwarf god hung up, the fragments of its godhead gave birth to two gods, the dwarf protector god Kings Hammer and the gray dwarf god McDull Felt, because the two gods competed for the position of the main dwarf god, the dwarf race was divided into two races, the ground dwarf and the underground dwarf, coupled with the continuous pressure of the human state, the former huge dwarf empire collapsed.
