Uplifting Journey

"God of Shadows!!! You"

Hearing the unbelievable roar of resentment, the enchanting woman wearing only a thin layer of translucent gauze stopped in a huge palace that seemed to be built for giants, and turned her head to look at the square-like square to her. corridor side.

Looking past the tall guard who was restless because of her sight, the red body with wings and hoofed feet, the woman exuding a charming aura, saw some familiar kingdoms of gods that were trembling and collapsing in the void.

"Is there really a problem with the God of Shadows? Fortunately, I'm sharp enough to get out early." Daphne, the former God of Fallen, sighed while pressing her chest lightly with one hand.

The powerful contract that restrained the evil gods to achieve a union originally came from the devil. Daphne, who had an unclear relationship with the devil, would naturally prepare a way to get rid of the constraints of the contract before signing the contract. Now that she has completed her reincarnation and completely become a member of the devil camp, Naturally, it is easy to avoid the various restrictions and negative damage of the devil's contract.

Looking at the kingdoms of evil gods in the void that collapsed in an instant under the siege of many gods, Daphne recalled the terrifying red dragon with its wings covering the plane that forced her to reincarnate, and she couldn't help feeling a little lingering.

At first, Daphne was only a little doubtful about the source of the God of Shadow's information. She didn't think that the God of Shadow, who was alone, could get more accurate information than the devil who specialized in this field, so she kept an eye out for testing After taking a look at the Red Dragon Kasa, she keenly discovered the subtleties in her attitude, so she resolutely gave up the kingdom of God and reincarnated and slipped away.

Now judging from the corner traces of the battle of the gods, the God of Shadow may not just have a problem with the source of information.

After shaking her head, Daphne turned her head and continued walking towards the depths of the huge palace.

In the deepest part of the palace, after passing through a sensory barrier that distorts time and space, Daphne saw a handsome red-eyed man lying sideways on a golden bench.

"Welcome to hell, Daphne, my fallen prince."

Accompanied by the devil's words that can easily pollute and erode the souls of mortals, the man with a pair of dark red short horns stood up slowly. He held a ruby ​​scepter in one hand, and put the other on the luxurious red and black coat on his body. They clapped, and then slowly walked towards Daphne.

"Asmodeus," as the man approached, Daphne raised her eyes higher and higher and said with a smile, "It's not a good habit for a lady to keep her head up."

The devil lord, who was several times taller than Daphne, smiled pointedly: "As a former fallen god, I think you will soon be able to adapt to the size of the devil."

"Oh?" Daphne glanced at the tall man's waist higher than her own head with a half-smile.

"Let's not talk about gossip," Asmodeus, who was walking nearby, stopped and touched his clean chin and asked, "You actually gave up the Kingdom of God and reincarnated as a devil by yourself. But it is a little different from the fallen god in my impression, and it is also different from the plan discussed before, can you tell me what happened to you?"

"It's all about running away," Daphne said, waving her hands, "You also saw the scene in the void before? If I don't act decisively, I probably have become a godhead for people to play with."

"Wonderful ambush, but that's all." The devil lord glanced at the gods in the void who had already begun to wrangle, "Among those low-level guys, even the shadow god with medium divine power can be considered a strong one. Moreover, these few 'powerhouses' are the biggest traitors. It is normal for them to be easily massacred by a group of gods led by Tyr, who is at the peak of his divine power.

"Since you noticed this trap in advance, you just need to avoid it. Why did you choose to reincarnate directly?"

"I noticed some problems at the time and started preparing for reincarnation. After dealing with the petitioner and divine power, I found an excuse to test the red dragon."

When asked about her most lingering experience, Daphne said with some reluctance: "I wanted to sell those guys with brain problems depending on the situation, and see if I could get in touch with the secrets of Red Dragon Casa, but I didn't expect it to end like this anyway. gone."

"The god of knowledge?" Asmodeus nodded knowingly, "If you dare to test her, you will be considered lucky if you survive."

--What's the meaning? If you believe that the red dragon is so strong, why do you still discuss with me those strange plans against the source of the holy light?

Daphne, who was hesitant in her heart, asked, "It sounds like you know her well?"

"That red dragon has already proven her abilities, hasn't she?" Asmodeus pondered for a while after replying casually, and then continued seriously, "...Also, you have completed the reincarnation ceremony and truly become a As part of the power of hell, I can also tell you some secrets that the devil king should know."

Daphne was slightly taken aback, then took a deep breath, and listened attentively to the secrets spoken by this powerful being standing at the pinnacle of the world who lived from the beginning of the world to the present.

After deliberating for a while, Asmodeus first asked: "You should also know that the God of Knowledge is from an existence outside this crystal wall system, right?"

Daphne nodded: "I have obtained this information from the God of Shadow and other channels. Although the God of Shadow has problems, this information should be true."

"It's good that you know," Asmodeus wandered slowly in the vast hall with a scepter in his hand, "No one who can take the initiative to cross the crystal wall system is a weak one. The God of Knowledge has transcendence." The power of common sense is not surprising, the only thing I wanted to verify before was his level."

After a pause, Asmodeus grabbed the scepter and waved it. Daphne suddenly took a step back with a headache, and then she found that various phantoms began to emerge in her mind one after another—there were countless The scene of a ferocious dragon soaring in the sky.

Asmodeus looked at Daphne, who was immersed in a certain memory of his own, and said: "You were born relatively late, if you had experienced the scene when the dragon god Ao created the dragon race to erode everything in the world, you would not be seeking knowledge. How amazed at the power of God Kasa."

Daphne, who was stunned by the spectacular scene of dragons crushing the star world and the void, came back to her senses with difficulty. She said in shock: "Dragon God Aiou, also came from outside the crystal wall system? Such an existence."

"There are actually many such existences," Asmodeus shrugged, "but few are known to the gods, and the strength of outsiders is also divided into levels——

"The weakest ones directly turned into strange objects and props. The slightly better ones are actually no different from ordinary mortals. They can't even recall the reason why they crossed the crystal wall system."

After a pause, Asmodeus said with a hint of a smile: "If you are stronger, you can dig out some inheritance or reliance with inexplicable origins from yourself, and struggle a little bit in the long river of time.

"Even if these people have not fully awakened their true colors, they can still make some achievements, and the best of them can even become gods."

"As for the stronger ones, although they haven't awakened yet, I'm not so sure about their essential state, but judging by their name, image, and development trajectory, they are basically problematic." Asmodeus squinted at Daphne , said in a strange tone, "For example, Mystra, the goddess of magic, Tyr, the god of justice and courage, etc."

Daphne's pupils shrank, and she couldn't help but feel a little tremor in her heart—how many outsiders are there in this world? Under the superficial pattern of the world of spirits, are there hidden more mysterious and deeper influencing factors?

"Up to this level, the abilities of outsiders are still based entirely on this crystal wall system, which should still be within your understanding, but next?" Asmodeus said with a strange smile, "The stronger ones are Those who have successfully created 'ancient' qualifications in the river of time, such as Oghma, the god of knowledge, such as-me."

What is the manufacture of ancient qualifications? Daphne was dumbfounded, but she managed to hear the following sentence clearly: "So you are also an existence from outside the crystal wall system?"

"This is not something to make a fuss about, you have to learn to adapt." Asmodeus nodded, and then said in a deep voice, "But above me, there are outsiders at a higher level, and they often have transcendence. The ability to understand the range, or even completely unreasonable, such as the dragon god Aiou, such as the god of knowledge Kasa

"So, do you know why I said you were lucky?" Asmodeus snorted in front of Daphne, who had a very bad face, "To be honest, I suspect that you didn't escape at all. The fallen lord in front of me may be no different from the God of Shadows in essence, but it would be nice to be a sounding board, don’t you think so?”

After observing Daphne's rich expression changes and soul activities, the Asmodeus scepter patted the palm of his hand and sighed: "It seems that you are probably not a puppet. You are really lucky."

"You, tell me this," Daphne, who had a deep self-examination of her soul due to fear in an instant, felt a little chilly all over, "are you testing the possibility of me being turned into a puppet by that red dragon?"

"Only a little bit," Asmodeus bent down and stretched out his hand, squeezed two fingers together to create a thin slit in front of Daphne's pale face, "It's really just a little bit of testing."

Asmodeus straightened up and returned to the huge bed-like seat and sat down, and then said to Daphne who had regained her emotions: "I'm going to explain these secrets to you, actually I want you to Understanding the Duties of a Demon Lord

"Many existences believe that it is the eternal battle between the gods and the abyss that promotes the degeneration of the gods and the birth of the devil, but you who know my identity should be able to think that hell and the devil are the products of my deliberate guidance. The time is far earlier than many gods today.

"As devils, what we really care about and spend our energy on maintaining is beyond your previous vision. It is essentially a kind of illusory, some kind of balance deep in the world, rather than the interests and powers pursued by ordinary gods. These words do you understand?"

After Daphne nodded subconsciously, the entire devil hall and the humanoid image of Asmodeus began to distort, gradually revealing the essence of the Lord of Hell in front of her.

Daphne only saw an incomparably magnificient, indescribable great existence, and said majestically in her soul: "Since you understand, then don't have any doubts about future orders, go, go Fulfill the duties of the Demon Lord."

In front of the Lord of Hell who revealed her true power, Daphne was at the mercy of a puppet. She felt her body slowly melting and gradually fitting into the extremely strict system of hell. Afterwards, her consciousness was captured by countless information chains. Overwhelmed with feedback.

Observing Daphne's performance after completely transforming into the devil lord, Asmodeus, who is hell-conscious, nodded in his heart: "After all, it is the real name of a middle-level divine power. It's stupid, but at least it can be used."

After arranging all the hell powers and devil subordinates of the Fallen Maharaja's line, Asmodeus, who tested for a period of time and confirmed that the hell system was running smoothly, turned his attention to the source of the holy light in the void .

"That feeling just now was a shadow god?" After pondering for a while unexpectedly, Asmodeus, who reset the hall to normal, sat on the throne and shook his head, "Although the god is troublesome, it should be treated The red dragon has no effect.

"From intervening in this world to becoming a god, joining the source of the holy light, and killing evil gods. I really don't know what that person wants to do, and it doesn't seem like he is here to bring justice. The priesthood of seeking knowledge.

"Dragon God Aiou's intention to use the blood of the dragon to erode all life was so obvious back then. Why is this a bit incomprehensible this time? But she will not come here to hang out, and one day she will reveal her goal."

After thinking for a while, Asmodeus adjusted the various plans for the red dragon according to the latest information, and then continued to integrate and upgrade the power of hell—although the purpose is different from that of ordinary gods, but Without something like strength, nothing can be done.

The Hell Devils under the leadership of Asmodeus have always kept a low profile, and have done nothing but gain power to maintain the inexplicable balance. He also hopes that the various unexpected developments brought about by the red dragon this time will not affect his side.

"However, the influence of the existence of God above the gods basically affects the whole world. If the attempt of communication and persuasion fails, there is no way. I hope she will be like Dragon God Aiou."

If the red dragon helps, the abyss expedition of the source of the holy light may really break the balance. Although the imbalance of a crystal wall system is not a big deal in Asmodeus' eyes, after all, the accumulation of small things adds up. If you can stop it, you have to try to stop it.

Anyway, he can't talk about any loss if he fails.
