Unlike the present world, time is always blurred in a world dominated by chaos.

Maybe fast, maybe slow, it's hard to have a definite number. Even after the birth of 'order in chaos', at most this change will be slowed down and 'anchored', but it cannot be completely erased.

So thousands of years have passed since the serpent that surrounded the atrium began to sleep, and his 'spirit' walked in the world in human form.

There is no life in the atrium, because its owner does not allow it, and there is no existence qualified to set foot here, so this is also the only interface in the Nine Prisons that does not have the existence of the devil.

In the sky of the interface, islands float there. Most of the buildings are vacant and remain in their original appearance. Only the very central one, where there was a simple wooden hut that did not seem to live up to the title of 'Center of the Realm'.

Right here, Ryan's avatar sat on the back of his chair, his eyes looking through the gap in the interface at the demon god in the outside world who was becoming more and more vibrant.

The Demon Mother has not yet been born, because the existence of the Nine Prisons has caused some of the nutrients that should have been given to her to be intercepted. But the abyss of chaos did not care about this, and he had already let his creatures do their duty in advance.

Therefore, I don't know if I can tell if it is the position of the 'abdomen', but it gradually bulges, and some of the strength flows there. Of course, Ryan actually didn't recognize Moya's body structure, and he could barely tell that it was the belly of the Demon Mother based on the bulging position.

The premise is that if Moya really uses her belly to conceive an heir.

"How many demon gods will there be in the first batch of incarnations, are there twelve like the Titans?"

A voice came from his side. At some point, Asmodeus had arrived at the stone table in the cabin.

The barrier of the interface also couldn't isolate his gaze, and looking at his destined enemy in the future, the Lord of the Nine Prisons asked calmly.

His intuition told him that the moment Moya woke up, it would be when the first Abyss Demon Gods were born.

"No, maybe six."

"There is one body in this world, so there is nothing wrong with having twelve. But Tartarus is only the outer core, and the six are more in keeping with His person. In fact, I still wonder if the Demon God conceived by him has an immortal nature, except for Moya, who was formerly a Titan. ”

"Of course, all of this is my guess, and it wouldn't be a good thing if there were more. After all, there is only so much power, he can create six first-generation demon gods with powerful divine powers, but it is difficult to create twelve. If he does it, he may weaken himself. ”

Raising a glass and drinking, Ryan was not surprised by Asmodeirs' arrival, after all, he had already noticed it. In fact, just as he couldn't enter the other six layers of interfaces without the other party's permission, the other party couldn't enter and exit his interface at will.

The biggest connection between the two sides is that the root of the Nine Prisons is still one. Just as the present world collapses, the world will also collapse, and the two sides can have strength and weakness, but they cannot completely lose one side.

Of course, Ryan didn't think he would come this far, although he himself would be held back by Tartarus's will when confronting the Abyss, but now that Asmodeirs has been reborn, he is more cautious and intelligent than he once was. Perhaps for some, the position of God-King is indeed just a shackle.

"Six. Let's hope that before they are born, Cleos will be converted. ”

"When the time comes, I will follow the agreement and seal the first layer of hell to him. Sitting on a favorable location, facing six demon gods who have been suppressed by the power of the interface, he should be able to do it-"

At the end of the day, Asmodeurs was a little skeptical.

After all, the transformed Titan gods are not as good as they used to be, and Cleos's [Weather] priesthood granted by the present world is of little use here, and it will also affect his transformation into a devil. So after some bargaining, the god of weather, who was banished to the abyss with no way out, finally gave up his identity as a living god.

In fact, Cleos would rather have a ruthless will than a thoughtful Lord of the Nine Hells. So even if there is no way out, he still makes Asmodeirs make enough guarantees.

After that, the three parties reached a consensus. Ryan used the [Well of Reincarnation] to wash away the part of Cleos's present life, so that he did not have to take on the priesthood, and completed the transformation with millions of years of distorted time, just like the predecessor of Moya, the mother of demons.

The Lord of the Nine Hell was responsible for giving him a new lease of life, and made an oath to Styx in the name of the Lord of the Interface, so that Asmodeus would never ignore his interests and set aside the first level of Hell for him to rule, as long as Cleos swore eternal allegiance to him.

As for the [Meteorology] priesthood that was stripped off, seventy percent of the source power was transformed and injected into the first layer of hell, making this layer of interface suddenly become an existence second only to the ninth layer.

The remaining three floors were taken away as fees, which was why the Lord of the Nine Prisons was suspicious.

After all, in this case, the newborn Cleos is probably only at the level of level 15 divine power, even if he can go further with the blessing of the power of the Hell Interface, it is still debatable whether he can fight six in one hit.

"There will be no problem. It won't be long before my third hell will usher in a lord. ”

"The two of them together are enough to stop each other. Not to mention the gods conceived by Tartarus, I find it hard to imagine that they could always be united. ”

Responding casually, Ryan couldn't help but think of the restless guy.

Except for the atrium, for the other two layers of hell, Ryan does not intend to stay in his hands.

Canonize them to save time and effort.

Perhaps some beings are inherently inherently inappropriate to stay in a place that is too comfortable, and Ryan believes that it is here that the other person may really be able to play to his strengths.

"Speaking of which, I'm more interested in Styx than those demon gods."

"As early as the last epoch, I noticed that the essence of Styx penetrated into Tartarus. And I really didn't expect that the power of his oath would be effective here, and even stronger. ”

Asmodeus, on the other hand, has a different opinion. He didn't care why the River of Oaths was so special, as long as it was easy for the other party to use.

"The 'oath' that took effect in the midst of chaos is indeed interesting, but it is also a good thing, after all, without her, Cleos may not have believed my promise."

Somewhat unimpressed, after all, the goddess had never had a sense of existence, Asmodeus asked instead:

"I heard that she conceived three children on her own, unleashed the bursting side of her personality, and asked them to serve her own rebel son?"

"Yes, some people say that she was born to a Titan deity. But as far as I could see, there were no other traces of divinity in the bodies of those gods. ”

Violent Bia, brute force Kratos, and their two sisters. There are true gods and demigods, but they really only have the blood breath of Styx alone.

"If I have the opportunity in the future, I would like them to serve me."

"Goddess of Oaths, her strength matches the Nine Prisons."

Somewhat regretful, Asmodeus was silent for a moment. Finally, he stretched out his hand and drew a circle in front of him.

On this side of the circle is the atrium; On the other side, tens of thousands of demons are gathering together to bow down to an altar.

It's a pity that these evil beings don't seem to have any piety to speak of even to the masters of the Nine Hells.

"Faith. The Golden Humans seem to have had this kind of power as well, but it's a shame I haven't paid attention to this in the past. After all, compared to the power of the God King, my space-time divine power at that time was still too insignificant. ”

Sighing, Asmodeus was somewhat regretful.

If he had discovered this secret earlier, perhaps he would have been able to reach greatness on his own. But the current result doesn't seem to be bad.

After losing the dark power of the mind-twisting mind, the reborn souls of the Silver Humans were freed. Now, their 'evil' is more due to the environment and memories of the past than the result of being forcibly modified.

This gave them ample faith as well, and even because the strength of the individual seemed to be a little more powerful than that of a single human, the Lord of the Nine Hells actually discovered this earlier than Zeus.

But he also has to face two problems: first, the devils really can't talk about piety, so the faith that can be obtained from them can directly cut off the part of 'devout worship', which is equivalent to directly missing more than half.

However, this is acceptable, after all, as the masters of hell and one of the creators of the devil, as long as they are alive here, they will inevitably provide faith to Asmodeus, but another problem is more difficult to solve.

Because reincarnation is not connected to the Nine Hells, and Tartarus does not welcome the intervention of the spirit world, there are only so many souls here for him. The belief brought by hundreds of thousands of intelligent beings is quite impressive for existences below medium divine power, but for Asmodeus, the effect is really limited.

"The Nine Prisons also have a part of you, why don't you want to put your soul into this place?"

Knowingly asked, the Lord of the Nine Prisons spoke.

"Because on the one hand, the spiritual world is my foundation, and on the other hand, the souls of this world will eventually return to the spiritual world, if the gods of Olympus dare to intercept a large number of streams, then I can directly cut off their source, but the devil of the Nine Hells will not."

Shaking his head slightly, Ryan once again rejected Asmodeirs' request for a soul. It is almost impossible for the devil to live a natural death, which is born in an extraterrestrial environment. But the trade-off is that their ability to reproduce is almost non-existent.

"Unless they die in the outside world, even if they die fighting each other, their souls will only be used by you as material for the birth of new demons, until they are completely exhausted. How could I be willing to do things that only go in and can't get out? ”

"You're right."

As if he had expected Ryan's refusal, the Lord of the Nine Prisons said slowly.

"In that case, then I'll figure it out myself, as long as you don't stop it yourself."

"No problem," nodded, and Ryan looked at his old friend on the side, "Aren't you already doing it, though?" ”

Under the authority of the spirit, there is no barrier between this special incarnation and the ontology. The figure who had borrowed the underworld before and finally rushed to the ground had always been in his perception.

"I remember his name was Mephistopheles, yes, one of the former leaders of the Silver Race."

"Yes, a very capable guy. In order to select the best of these Silver Humans, I gave them the same starting point, and only the best could stand in front of me, and he was one of them. ”

"The remaining ones relied on force to some extent, but he did not use force once, so I sent him out, and promised him that the more satisfactory the answer he could bring me in a thousand years in the outside world, the higher I would give him."

Poured yourself a cup of tea and drank it all. The Lord of the Nine Prisons felt that perhaps this drink was not inferior to wine.

"He told me that it is the human beings themselves who know the best about human beings. Although he was a Silver Generation, not the same thing as a Bronze Human, I grudgingly believed his explanation. ”

"Just let me see what kind of reply he can give me, and if he can win half of the interface from my hands, as he claims."

······

"You're not a Protoss."

The shock of the first meeting subsided, and the anger gradually welled up in Keto's heart.

Although the farther away from Mount Olympus, the weaker the divine power that can be used, but when he calmed down, Keto still probed the details of what was in front of him.

But the result surprised her. Although the other party also has divinity, that divinity does not seem to come from authority. This kind of power gives her the feeling that she is a bit like a regional god.

But she was sure that she had never seen this kind of regional god - not the river god and lake god, not the star god and the mountain god, but an aura that had not been contacted, and it was much stronger than the former, but it seemed that the other party was faintly rejected by the present world.

It's a bit like the way Keto once crossed the edge of the sea, and after a long river around the world, he came outside the jurisdiction of this world.

It was a sense of displacement, and although it was not suppressed, it seemed that many of the powers of the present world were not very useful there.

"Of course, ma'am, I'm not a Protoss. It wasn't, it wasn't, it wasn't now, and it doesn't plan to be in the future. ”

He smiled politely when he looked back, but seeing Mephistopheles' smile, Keto felt that the other party was laughing at him.

It's not a god, but he deceives himself with a few words, which makes the other party very proud?

"So you're teasing me, the great Lord of the Sky, the children of Ouranos, the King of the Gods!"

The little divine power left surged up, crushing Mephistopheles in front of him. But in the next moment, this special 'regional god' blocked this temptation.

The black mist swirled around him, and he broke up slightly, but it didn't collapse completely. The opponent is not so easy to block, which proves that his strength is not strong. But it's not that difficult, which proves that the other party does have the power of a true god - even if it is only at the level of god power level 1.

"Although I myself have not been born recently, Madam, the King of the Nine Prisons told me about the past of this world before I left."

Turning around, Mephistopheles stopped, intending to convince the goddess in front of him before continuing on his way.

In the past, he had talked to old friends about how if he was given a chance, he might not be able to convince the gods. Now, it's his turn to prove himself.

"As far as I know, as early as the last era, the king of the gods has been replaced. And the god Ouranos has never had such a child as you. ”

"If I'm not mistaken, you, or the lady next to you, should be- ahem."

Seeing the other party's expression as if he wanted to make a move, Mephistopheles raised his hand and signaled that he could change the subject.

"Well, in short, on the day when the god-king married the god, not only did you not go to Olympus, but you left alone, I'm afraid it was related to some upcoming god, I guessed right."

"Why, can't it be that I have a conflict with the other gods on the sacred mountain, or that there is something to do?"

Keto was sure that no one could detect the birth of Aphrodite except for himself and the God King, so how did this guy in front of him know what he was thinking at the time as soon as they met?

"The former is unlikely," shaking his head slightly, Mephistopheles was calm: "After all, the gods invited by the God King must have been notified in advance, and if you had a grudge with a certain god before, you wouldn't have come here at all." ”

"If you've just had a grudge - with all due respect, ma'am, I'm afraid you don't have the ability to grudge against someone else on the day of the God-King's wife-making, and then ruin the God-King's banquet and leave unharmed."

"So the only possibility is that there is something that shouldn't have come, but was invited temporarily, and she is probably very bad with you, and you are afraid of her."

"As for the latter," Mephistopheles said with a smile after a wink, "if there is really something wrong with you, how can you be tempted by me before and follow me here." ”

“.”

I don't know when, the anger in my heart has faded. Although it seems that he was fooled by the other party's casual words before, Keto now has some curiosity and anticipation.

Since the other party sees it so clearly, there should indeed be a way to help yourself if you dare to call yourself here.

"So who's behind you, the 'Monarch of the Nine Hells'?"

"Among the main gods with powerful divine power in the world, I don't seem to have heard of this existence."

Kaos's circle of gods is not large in the first place, and it is theoretically impossible for a god to suddenly appear that he has never heard of. And Keto didn't think that a strong divine power could make a non-god being a god.

As for the primordial gods, although the title 'Nine Hells' reminded her of Tartarus, the gods knew that the abyss had no wisdom.

"Hehe, about the greatness of the Lord of the Nine Hells, I will tell you slowly later. But now there's one thing you can do with me if you want to. ”

As her mind turned, Mephistopheles made an inviting gesture.

"Bronze human, you've heard of it."

"Yes, the mortal things that the God-King has been valuing lately."

Nodding, Keto didn't know how the other party would mention this.

"Then come with me, and I'll take you to witness why the God King pays so much attention to them, and what kind of secrets do humans contain."

Despite his dissatisfaction with the practice of leaving half of the other person's speech, Keto today is not thousands of years ago.

Now, her wild side has been suppressed a lot, and she is more like a god.

And I have to say that what the mysterious man named Mephistopheles said in front of him is indeed very tempting. Who doesn't want to know the secrets of the god-king?

"You'd better not lie to me."

"I'll keep an eye on you!"

coldly threatened, Keto didn't need to look at it to know that the other party didn't care at all.

So soon, the two of them took off again and flew quickly towards the east.
