Chapter 73: The Secret of the Lantern
The white-haired demon king in a red robe walked barefoot into the sacrificial arena.
All the ministers knelt.
Tia glanced faintly at the glowing lantern.
"Old Gods?"
This lantern is a real antiquity.
It's not the garbage that humans with a shallow history are keen on.
Rather, it is a mythical relic that is older than a long time ago, and can be traced back to the glorious era.
In the memory of the bloodline, she had vaguely looked up at the owner of the lantern in the boundless crowd.
That is indeed God.
And it is inextricably linked with the demons———
Mother Goddess.
The cataclysm has caused the old people to lose too much of the past, and even the demon king can only pick up some fragments of history from the anger of the bloodline, and under the patchwork, she can get a glimpse of the name of this existence.
Tiamat.
But the name of God is inconceivable, unreadable, and unwritten.
Otherwise, you will attract attention!
Tia is tempting, silently reciting the name of God in her heart, testing whether the lantern is the divine remnant of the mother goddess of that glorious era—
The lantern suddenly spoke.
"Ah, shit, why are you still the same...."
"It's a little new, but it's not enough to see." (Refers to the new function of the blood bar)
"Useless guy! Hurry up and find a way to get back! (Referring to missing the Great Night Manor and the White Silk Cake)
It was a voice that was different from that of a mortal, distorted yet majestic.
Although it is impossible to distinguish between men and women, it is as low as the echo of the earth, full of divinity.
Tia's indifferent gaze froze slightly.
Mother Goddess ...... Answered my call.
Is He criticizing me..... It is believed that the bloodline of the demon king has not grown for thousands of years.
Even the strongest generation after the Lost Era is not enough to see in front of God....
But this is already the limit of what the old people and the previous kings can do in this desolate world, and Tia does not feel guilty.
On the contrary, I was a little annoyed, everyone worked so hard, why did you say it so ugly?
When the demons present heard this ridicule, they knelt on the ground and didn't dare to come out.
Tia took a step forward, and her cold voice was neither humble nor arrogant:
"So what do you think I should do?"
The lantern suddenly dimmed, as if it were silent.
The ministers in the sacrificial arena only felt that the atmosphere was extremely depressing, and His Majesty the Demon King was actually questioning the ancient gods!
The old god stopped talking, could it be that he was angered by her unreasonable attitude?
After a long time, the light of the inscription lantern turned on again:
“...... The god of lights? ”
Tia was stunned.
Did he.... Want me to ascend to God?
All the ministers were also at a loss, but in an instant, the confusion turned into ecstasy!
Your Majesty's ancestors are the closest to the gods, and if you want to surpass the ancestors, there is only one way to become a god!
The demon king is flowing with divine blood, isn't it true that the ancient gods have a way to regain their divinity?!
"Hey, hey, hey.... Can you hear me? ”
The Old God spoke again.
"I can hear you...."
Tia was a little sluggish, a path that the kings had never envisioned, and she organized the language:
"Ascend to the gods.... What to do? ”
"What should the god of lights do?"
There was silence again.
"I rely on you, the god of lights, you ask me...... What do you think should be done? ”
Tia is quite simple, and the main one is not understandable.
"I'm sorry.... I do not know. ”
"What Xiaoai...... Then I ask you, what is your role now? Well.... For example, can you fulfill three wishes? ”
Tia pondered the words.
Duty, three wishes ....
Could it be that the Mother Goddess refers to the long-cherished wish of the old people?
Cast out the abyss, shoot down the sun, and serve the king as the sun.
In that case, Mother Goddess is testing my consciousness.
Tia was not afraid.
"I will now lead my people to defeat the enemy, and after victory, I will be able to fulfill my wishes."
"Holy, really?" The voice of the old god seemed to be excited, "Any wish? ”
In Tia's view, all three wishes can be fulfilled as long as the sun can be shot down.
"Yes."
So, the sound of muttering began to come from the lantern one after another.
"Could it be that you have cultivated a lamp god...... Well, I've seen similar online articles...... Get a reward for running the progress bar full...... Defeat the enemy...... Is it a simulated operation....... this lantern is really a mod played outside the game.,No wonder I haven't seen this broken lamp...... Ha, this time the machine has séanced, and it has changed to a JB job....."
Everyone didn't really hear it, only what "king tattoo", what "reward", what "séance".
The Old Gods must be carrying out a huge and shrewd Mandate of Heaven deduction!
"I've got it all figured out! Without further ado, you tell me about the enemy's situation first, and I'll figure out a way for you. ”
The ministers are no longer ecstatic now.
It's so happy that I'm going to faint.
The Old Gods are going to help us deal with the human coalition and the sun god?!
God bless the Demon King Army!
Sun God, you are the singer, our demon army is scolding you in the old place, come, ancient god, scold him!
Look at you and bring your two human alliances, stupid baskets, wait for it, GDP will be all for you!
Tia glanced around at the ministers, the main generals of the Demon King Army were not there, but she didn't know the human situation very well.
So she could only repeat it according to the impression that the generals had reported to her:
"The enemy is now developing very well, there are many countries, they are very united, their weapons and armaments are far superior to ours, and they are good at fighting in large armies .... If we attack a city, we usually can't attack it for a long time in the face of a city-state that has been prepared for a long time, and there will be strong people to help us as soon as it drags on, and even if it is defeated, it will be very difficult to defend. But if you don't attack the city, you won't get any results, and the failures of the past dynasties are all because of this. ”
"And what are your strengths?"
"Hmm..... Individual strength should be superior and more mobile. ”
"It's just that the economy is not good enough for others, but the will to fight is stronger than others?"
Tia doesn't know what economics means, but her people are definitely far more willing to fight than humans have been living in peace for a long time.
"Hmm."
"What stupidity!"
The Old God gave the girl and her subordinates a slap in the face.
"What is wrong with this situation, why do you want to attack the city? Movement warfare, guerrilla warfare, positional warfare, war of attrition, war of annihilation ...."
"To put it simply—"
"On Protracted War!"
"You know, the essence of war is an economic contest. First of all, launch a sneak attack in the countryside where the enemy's ruling power is relatively weak! Establish guerrilla armies, establish base areas, combine the bombing of bridges and roads, the burning of grain, and economic strikes, and let the civilians remember not to kill any of them, let the rural population increase the burden on the cities, and make them exhausted in defense, gradually creating a strategic situation in which the countryside encircles the cities, and after their economic collapse, the army will be in chaos, and the last move will win a complete victory! ”
Tia is dumbfounded and doesn't know how to pinch.
But the higher-ups of the Demon King Army have already listened stupidly.
The old gods are talking about something very new, very advanced.
I can't think about it, I feel like I'm going to have a long brain.
Damn, why didn't you think you could fight like this for more than a thousand years? The enemy's brave men are more than one another, shouting every day what to play European, ride and chop, and play tightrope......
They are the only ones who play with the demon king army.
"Well, this thing can be talked about later, and the specific battle situation will be analyzed in detail...."
The old god suddenly threw away a very compelling sentence:
"If people lose land, people and land will survive. If you lose your land, you will lose your land! ”
After hearing this, the demon kings bowed their heads and bowed.
"Kojin Takami!!"
Everyone was convinced and shouted in unison.
Only Tia was still standing there, she didn't understand it, but she felt quite powerful, worthy of being the mother goddess.
You can ask the generals to listen to them too.
"What bmovement?"
The old god heard the voices of the ministers just now, and seemed to be angry.
"Cut the voice pack back! It's unbearable, buddy is just that little girl! ”
Hearing this, Tia gently raised her hand and motioned for everyone to withdraw.
Could it be that the Mother Goddess felt that only she was worthy to communicate with Him?
Then it's better to communicate with Him alone, even if Tiamat only has a trace of divine consciousness left in the lantern, words alone can erase the spirit of these demons.
"Okay." She said coldly.
"Well, that's the smell, it's like my first love."
God seemed satisfied.
Tia, as the Demon King, has never tried to call others honorably, but after all, the other party is the Demon Mother Goddess, and now it is obvious that she is helping herself, so she should be respected, so she tried to call him the way the courtier called herself:
"You.... What state are you in right now? ”
"Am I now? It's a bit of a hassle. ”
Tia was stunned, could it be that the spirit was trapped somewhere?
Then I deserve to save it.
"Say, help you." Tia said crisply.
It seems that honorific titles are not very ideal.
"Hmm..... I just seem to have crossed the ..... Back to about 1,400 years ago? ”
Rewind time???
Rao Shitia was also shocked.
According to the records of the few gods of the glorious era, they are all trying to reverse time, but none of them have succeeded.
Did the Mother Goddess do it?
So when did she come back? A thousand years from now?
"Maybe longer? Two thousand years ago? I'm not sure, but this place is familiar to me and I've been to. ”
"You're amazing." Tia said from the bottom of her heart.
"Hehe, yes, I just killed an enemy."
"Enemies?"
"It's quite big, sea creatures, with a lot of tentacles, and a mess of structures on its body, old acquaintances."
Tia remembered in a daze.
An old acquaintance of the Mother Goddess.
Sea creatures, tentacles, indescribable structures....
Did he just kill an outer god of the abyss?!!!
Tia's small breasts rose and fell slightly, and a look of adoration actually appeared on her indifferent face.
It's amazing.....
Fighting against the abyss for so long, even if she is burning the fire, she can't fight against the coming outer gods so lightly.
"Hey, it's a baby, it's a long time since I picked up a soul, it's rare to pick it up once, I didn't expect the fuel to be this thing...... eh, I forgot there's a switch, flip it and try-"
The lantern went out suddenly.
Tia waited in place, and for a long time did not see the lantern come on again.
"Are you still there?"
Tia frowned slightly in confusion, fuel....
Is He eating the outer gods?
It's really powerful, worthy of the gods......
.........
.........
.........
Just as Amamiya brought in more than 40 police officers, he was about to search for the missing Peter.
Suddenly, without warning, he appeared on the third floor of the slave market.
Like a living person, he appeared in front of Amamiya Xi without any movement.
"Wow———!!"
Amamiya Xi was taken aback by him, "Peter? Where did you just go? ”
But Peter ignored her.
I saw him carrying a quaint lantern and laughing wildly at Harry—
"Hahaha!! Lao Tzu has a lamp god! The Demon King is dead!! Fuck, mod to save the world!! ”
