Chapter 740: 第738章 黑暗之主：快住手啊！我的神力不
Chapter 738: 737.Lord of Darkness: stop it! That’s not how I use my divine power! Asshole.
“What? What did you say they found? A Dark Core that can explode?”
Murphy, who had returned to the Valley of the Phantom to continue working as a pit supervisor to feel the fish in passing, soon received news from Adele that left him dumbfounded, and he asked in detail about the form and characteristics of that Darkness Core, and then twisted his head to look at the Spider Woman Vilanthar, who was maintaining a dignified stance beside herself, pretending to be a beautiful NPC.
“My warriors killed the Dark Chosen and found some Dark Cores suspected to be the power seeds of the Dark Lord, it is said that that thing can produce violent explosions, why did we kill almost fifty Dark Chosen in the pit and found nothing?
Did you hide it privately?
You seem to be interested in these dangerous things.”
“You still have the nerve to say that.”
Spiderwoman rolled her eyes adorably as two of her six hands were clasped to her chest, two were crossed, and two more maintained the tool used for divination shaking at a specific frequency.
She spat viciously:
“As soon as that strange ‘purification aura’ of yours that calls itself ‘Omega’ is turned on, not to mention the power seeds of the Dark Chosen, even if the Lord of Darkness himself attacked you, nothing would be left behind.
That strange power is the most domineering purification effect I’ve ever seen, and I don’t even dare to use some of the evil arts of depravity that Ms. Spider bestowed upon me in front of you, lest I stimulate that power of yours to turn me into ashes.
I reckon that the Dark Core in those Dark Chosen had already dissipated when you killed them, but it’s not uncommon for such dark cultists to drop some power seeds, after all, the Lord of Darkness is going to leave behind in the material world as a backstroke to get out of the trap, not a one-shot deal.
It was also reasonable for Him to deliberately set His power seeds into this type of post-death restoration, so as to maximize the extent of ensuring that His power wouldn’t ‘evaporate’ for no reason at all.
I suspect that those picked up Darkness Cores should have some of the Dark Lord’s Light Eating Divine Power mixed in, and as for the explosion .
Well, it should be related to the unique form of existence of those foreigners.”
“Oh? How?”
Murphy became interested, he asked after him, and Villanther explained in detail for his master like a qualified “Cultist Bastard”:
“Divine power is a condensation of power that is higher than reality, that’s why it can show all sorts of incredible characteristics in the material world, but since it’s not a natural thing, if it wants to maximize its effectiveness in the material world, it must have a carrier.
Especially a symbolic evil god like the Lord of Darkness.
He doesn’t have the authority to create things out of thin air, so if he can’t create the most perfect dependents, he can only rely on the power seeds to slowly transform them, and once that thing enters the system of a certain being, it will begin to transform its form of existence, so that all of its organs and even the entire body will evolve into a form that’s the most suitable for the play of Light Eating Divine Power in a short period of time.
It’s a pre-determined process of power adaptation, my lord, spot the problem?
Your warriors didn’t appear on this earth as entities, they are just special psychic energy projections, not to mention that the entities are not here, even their spirit and will are projected.
No matter how powerful the Core of Darkness is, there is no way to cross the distance between two worlds to infect their entities.
Maybe the Subspace Shadow could do it, but a symbolic indigenous evil god like the Dark Lord certainly couldn’t do it.
To put it simply, the Seed of His Power was not designed for your warriors, who can at best temporarily hold this power within their bodies, but will immediately trigger the Light Eater to go berserk as soon as they dare to use it.
Once the divine power goes berserk, the spiritual energy that makes up their bodies will quickly disintegrate, and the destructive power caused by the chaotic spiritual energy mixed with the violent divine power is of course far stronger than that of a normal energy blast.”
“Well, so that’s how it is, it seems that I was right, you are really proficient in this area, and the tricks of the cultists have all been touched by you.”
Murphy sighed in admiration.
The most perfect way to use this thing immediately surfaced in his evil head, he narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, and said to Villanther:
“So, what do you say, can we collect those Dark Cores dropped by the Dark Chosen and give them to Tris to dilute with alchemy and add them to the kind of Dueling Wine that the warriors are currently using.
That way, at the end of their drinking the decisive wine to burn their lives they can trigger the storming of the Light Eating Divine Power, and they don’t even need the Last Fighting Deed spell, they can drink it and complete the whole process from self-burning to self-blasting the enemy.
And the power of destruction will be significantly increased.”
“Ms. Spider is on it! What a wicked and thrilling idea!”
Veranthir gave a feigned exclamation.
But then this same Spider Lady narrowed her eyes and gave the standard grim look that villains get when they do something bad, and she said:
“It is risky, my dear lord.
The Lord of Darkness has only been banished, He hasn’t dissipated yet, and as soon as He returns to the material world, all this separated divine power will be retrieved in minutes.
Secondly, even if this powerful yet evil potion is actually made, it can only be used by your pagan warriors.
It should never, ever be given to the locals to use, their entities and souls are at risk of being corrupted and transformed by the Dark Lord, well, of course, you can strengthen the toxicity of this potion by ten times!
That way, even if the locals are noticed by the Dark Lord after drinking the decisive wine, it’s useless; with only a little bit of dark divine power, even the Dark Lord has no way to bring his chosen ones back from the dead.
As you know, my lord, since we are going to use this dangerous power then we have to take every precaution in advance, lest the wild dogs on the other side of the street rise up and take a bite out of us.
But if you ask me, the most convenient way is to find an opportunity to crush the Dark Lord to death You know, divine power, that is the rarest material in the material world, many of the secret spells bestowed by Ms. Spider have used divine power to strengthen their own bodies.
I believe that as the best theologian on the continent, your Lady Tris must also have many ways of skillfully using divine power in her hands.”
“You really dare to think.”
Murphy spat:
“That’s a god!
And your poor master is just a mediocre black iron, which is the same as two petty thieves stealing plans to rob the halfling bank in Chardonnay Harbor, and already planning how to spend their money before they’ve even gotten their hands on it.
I don’t think we could be so confident right now.”
“Others certainly couldn’t do it, but you, my lord, are no ordinary man.”
Veranthir whispered:
“That strange and powerful omega purification power in you alone is quite impressive, and I think that if you could refine the way you use it a bit more.
I mean, being able to freely mobilize it for use in combat instead of activating it only when threatened like you do now, our plan would not be impossible.
You must understand, this thing is more deadly than I can describe to a Chaos creature. Well, the divination is complete. Let me see the results.
Well, it’s pretty bad.”
She frowned at the results in the very classic Shadow Elf divination bowl in her hand and said:
“The prophecy shows that a portion of the Dark Chosen have already fled the Black Flame Pass, and the diverging black lines represent them running to a place of deviation from their destiny, which I’m guessing would refer to the Ratlings.
As you know, the Rat People are not naturally born creatures, and the Wheel of Fortune of this world has no plan for them.
The good news, however, is that the vast majority of the Dark Chosen are still trapped in the positional pits of the Black Flame Pass, which should be located in the underground structure between Position Six and Position Nine.
Your warriors have their work cut out for them next.
If you are certain that you want to use the Dark Lord’s Light Eating Divine Power as a weapon to be modified, then you had better order them to gather up that precious power before the Jackals attack again.”
“Well, although I’ve seen it quite a few times already, I feel amazed every time I see you perform Divination; Prophecy has gone from an indefinable power to a means that can be relied upon in your hands.
I’m curious, are all the other Fate Weaver girls as powerful as you in this area of talent?” Murphy asked, and Villanther gave a rather blunt sneer, waving his hand in an embarrassed gesture and saying:
“My dear master, your praise is too exaggerated.
My divination results are also wrong, but this thing wasn’t this effective before, since I came to your side, my divination results have become more and more accurate, so the one who should be praised as powerful is you.
As for the other fortune weaving maidens, they are average, about four out of ten divinations are accurate, three are vaguely accurate, and the last three are ridiculously wrong, this is the current situation of divination and all prophecy spells.
We are only peering into and interpreting destiny, we cannot truly understand or even manipulate it.”
“In that case, may I invite you to travel to the Black Flame Pass and assist my warriors in hunting down those Dark Chosen?”
Murphy said:
“In that complex environment, your divination skills will definitely come in handy.”
“But what about your safety if I leave?”
Veranthir said with a frown:
“The last assassination was a shock to me, even Lady Spider was shaken by it, so please think of me, I can’t go against my god’s will. If something like this happens again, I think Ms. Spider will have to send down divine punishment.”
“That won’t happen, I’m not what I used to be.”
Murphy waved his hand and said mysteriously:
“I do expect that assassin to come back again, this time he won’t escape so easily, didn’t you make me another Vase of Resurrection?
There’s no need to be afraid with this.
I have few people under my command right now, so I can only overload you.”
“Alas, it’s really time to find you a full-time bodyguard.”
Villanther spat:
“That Venerable Lord Paying is also, to have his first lord go forward to act as a bodyguard for a jackal, why can’t he send another lord to accompany you? Is your safety not better than that of a mere Sage Wolf?
In that case, I’ll go and return quickly, do another precise divination on that position, outline the location of those Dark Chosen, and then I’ll return to you as soon as possible.
Before I come back, please don’t go and do anything that could potentially harm you, such as gulping down boiling hot soup or something like that, and be careful not to fall and drown when you go to the toilet, oh.”
After saying that, this immodest spider lady swayed her body to vanish into the shadows and left Murphy’s side.
The vampire lord touched his cheek, he always felt that Villanther seemed to be less and less like a standard shadow elf.
In fact comparing her to those shadow elf vampires who had currently monopolized the custom industry in Scarlet Castle it was not difficult to see that although Velanthir had a flowery mouth, she was pure in every aspect and did not look like a shadow elf.
Uh, perhaps one is overthinking it?
After all, Velanthir never hid the fact that she was a very good at disguising herself as a life-weaver girl, so maybe this transformation of hers was all an act?
“Wifey, are you busy now?”
Murphy activated the quantum communication on his Farseer Armor and asked to Tris’s side, and a few seconds later, Tris’s reply rang in Murphy’s ears, more or less with a wave of anger:
“Busy, not really, but could you please come and take care of that damn alien!
That Cement guy took one of the bio-pods in the bio-room apart when I wasn’t looking!
Hell, she couldn’t even put it back together and set off an explosion so big it sent smart security out, and if I hadn’t gotten there so fast, that guy would’ve had to experience three days of abstinence.
That’s crazy!
I can’t even begin to dismantle something that advanced, and we only have seven bio-pods in total!”
“Let her dismantle it, the fact that she’s dismantling it means she’s working on it, it means she’s hooked, it means that the poor guy isn’t likely to carry a KPI for the last twenty days of his life.”
Murphy didn’t care about the attrition, he said:
“There’s a repair program in Assistant Three, don’t activate it yet, wait for her to install it herself, if she really can’t install it then let Assistant Three start the repair process, she can do whatever she wants, don’t interfere with her.
I have a job for you now, it’s quite important, it’s related to divine power.”
“Hmm?”
As the best theologian on the continent, when she heard the word “divine power”, Tris’s anger at the “annoying bear child from another family who came to her house and dismantled her favorite artifacts” instantly shifted, and she immediately asked back:
“Where did you get access to divine power? That’s dangerous stuff, Murph, especially for your current lower power class, once you get tainted by divine power your whole life is over.”
“Calm down Tris, I’m a vampire, no god is going to throw their precious divine power at a piece of shit poop.”
Murphy laughed and told Tris about those power seeds of the Dark Lord and the way he wanted to utilize them, and the vampire lady froze for a few seconds, then said in an odd tone:
“All right you, little Murphy, I’ve never heard of anyone in my life plus Salokdar’s life I guess who dared to use precious divine power in such a wasteful way but this idea of yours is deviant but not impossible to carry out.
You send those dark cores to the Scarlet Fortress, I will rush back in two days to start experimenting, in fact, it’s not difficult to improve the principle of the decisive wine, the main thing is the materials.
Alright, leave this job to me.
I will equip your warriors with the most dangerous ‘suicide bombs’ in the world.
Well, let’s have an early moment of silence for the jackals.”
—
Fortress Crimsonwood, where Grand Duchess Shani of Thorns had been staying for more than five days, and it was very rare for a major figure in charge of the exchange of intelligence for the entire kingdom to stay in the same place for so long.
Shani’s business here had actually been taken care of, done yesterday, but she couldn’t leave now nor did she dare to.
Because the vampire’s bigwig was in the Crimean Fortress at this moment, Venerable Lord Paying had just finished listening to General Baldwin’s plan for the defense reinforcement of the Crimean Fortress a few hours ago, and had even taken the very active initiative of inviting Kudel, the Commander of the Maginot Line, to come and be a guest at the Crimean Fortress.
This was clearly to use his leadership in dealing with the Black Plague to force the Winter Wolf Legion and Transylvania to fully cooperate in this Black Plague.
His Holiness wasn’t a political figure, but his influence on the continent’s political level wasn’t weak at all, and if even the Wolf Girl and King Louie had to listen to him on this matter, then General Baldwin wouldn’t have any temper at all even if he had the dominant power taken away from him.
What’s more, after witnessing the tragedy of the Black Flame Pass, General Winterwolf has entered a very pragmatic state of preparation for war, and the presence of His Eminence will allow him to better coordinate with the Blood Vulture Clan on matters of preparation for war.
His Holiness Pa Ying’s next stop was North Wind Castle.
He was going to meet the Wolf Lady.
It was thought that this time there must be more to it than just bringing greetings, and Archduke Shani was going to go over there with Venerable Lord Payeng as a guide, which was the reason why she was currently staying at Crimsonwood Fortress.
Shani already knew from Tris that Lord Payeng had completed the binding ceremony for the candidates of the Blood Alliance, which meant that along the way, she and Lord Payeng would surely have to talk about the “Golden Age”.
Archduke Thorn was also looking forward to this.
However, just as Shani started to prepare for this journey, a secret report from the Thorn Clan interrupted her rhythm.
“The suspected ‘Dragon Flame’ Lina’s spiritist has appeared in Bernie City? Accompanying her is a girl with a mysterious identity? A suspected divine Chosen of an unknown deity?
This…”
Shani had a headache as she looked at the secret report in her hand.
A renegade Tower of the Ring’s Golden Spiritual Energy Lord was already difficult enough, how could there be an inexplicable divine choice of an unknown deity?
This continent was really about to enter an era of chaos huh?
Even unknown deities had appeared now!
What the hell!
It seemed that her journey with the Exalted Lord would need to change its route, and for the first stop, let’s set it at Bernie City.
