Chapter 642 The Kingdom of God on Earth

Especially Layla, the goddess of illusions and lies. Her best abilities are illusions, dreams, and lies. Through layers of illusions and layers of lies, she can trick people around. .

Her followers firmly believe that Lady Mist did not die, or was even killed by the God of Conspiracy. She just used a huge illusion and lie to play with the God of Conspiracy in her palm bones.

As for the illusion and lie priesthood mastered by the Prince of Lies, they are just part of the perfect lie of the goddess of illusion and lies, in order to promote her illusions and lie priesthood with the help of the God of Conspiracy. When the right opportunity comes, she will She will take back her own power and reappear in front of the world. At that time, she will have more believers and more powerful power.

Especially the believers of the Lady of the Mist on the moon of Selûne are convinced of this. The belief in illusion and the goddess of lies dominates this satellite, and the Prince of Lies has never been able to put his hand in it. , this is why he clearly brought the Misty Woman to the land of Faerûn. The saint's true body was beheaded, and even the lie priesthood was stripped away intact. However, the other party was still unable to completely understand the cause of the death of the god. As long as there are still a certain number of devout believers, even the god of the death of the god may die. And resurrection is just like the gods can bring people back to life.

As for the moon of Selûne, it is the only natural satellite of the planet Toril. Not only are there people here, there are living things on the moon and other unnatural satellites of the planet Toril, including the sun. These creatures are certainly not ordinary creatures. , but elemental creatures or unique existences that are immune to fire.

Don’t use three-dimensional and four-dimensional thinking to understand the multiverse. Even those powerful divine powers are just blind people trying to figure out the elephant. They can’t explain the specific appearance of the multiverse at all. Everyone and every god has their own unique understanding, and even Divergence from others has led to countless divine wars and conflicts.

Compared to the multiverse, even gods are a drop in the ocean.

“It is not an easy thing to plot this place. I don’t know how many souls have been absorbed here. I don’t know how much power the fragment of godhead has restored. But one thing can be known. The distant sea swamp has been It has become an independent field, and the operating rules inside are completely different from those outside. The differences are different. At present, it is likely to be related to illusions. If you want to find the fragments of the godhead, you must first break through these numerous defenses. Even a legendary archmage cannot do it so easily, especially It’s not possible to use a lot of manpower and material resources,” Catherine analyzed in detail.

“I just don’t know, what role did the three hags play in this? They are all masters in this area, especially the night hag itself has the ability to enter and exit dreams. Many times, fantasy and Dreams are not divided into families, could this fragment of the godhead have fallen into their hands?" Gavin guessed with some worry.

Those hags are cunning and treacherous, and like to use illusions and lies to play with humans. They have a certain degree of compatibility with this fragment of Godhead. If they master this fragment of Godhead, and then want to completely eradicate them, it will be difficult to seize this fragment of Godhead. will be greatly improved.

“At most, they have the upper hand. It’s hard to say how much they have mastered. But at present, they do not have the ability to bring this power out of the swamps of the distant sea. Otherwise, they will not be able to bring about the loss of troops and generals. If they don't use this kind of power, the difficulty of their control will probably be greatly increased in the future. Those who escape will It is difficult for monsters to escape the fate of death, and their souls will be used to strengthen the ability of the godhead fragments. After all, the power of the godhead comes from the soul and faith. Do you think the fog concentration here is higher? Expanding outward?”

Hearing what Catherine said, Gavin quickly suppressed his true gaze and looked down.

As expected, the fog shrouding the swamps in the distant sea no longer stayed there quietly, but began to actively expand outward as if it had a will of its own. I wonder if it was Gavin's illusion. On the top of the mist, he saw vague humanoid silhouettes, struggling and roaring, like souls trapped in another world, trying to ask for help from their former companions.

But the humanoid silhouettes made of mist fell directly on those monsters and passed through their bodies.

No, it's not just as simple as passing through, it even takes their souls out of their bodies, pulling out a long twisted figure. There is a force in those bodies, pulling the souls not to be dragged away.

But there were too many foggy shadows, and soon the second, third, and fourth foggy shadows came up, until their souls were torn out of their bodies. , when the line between body and soul is abruptly severed At that time, it was also the moment when the body suddenly fell to the ground and died. After those souls separated from the body, they were immediately swallowed up by the fog coming from all directions, turned into new foggy shadows, and followed other foggy shadows to rush towards others. The monster is still alive.

At the moment when the connection between the soul and the body is severed, there are some foggy shadows that can’t wait to get into the body, as if they want to occupy a magpie’s nest, but unfortunately, they are still like Just like before, it passed through directly, as if the two were not in the same spatial plane.

You don’t need to ask to know that these foggy shadows are actually the souls swallowed by this fog. I just don’t know whether their current behavior of rushing towards other monsters is spontaneous? Or was it forced by the fog?

No one can answer this question, maybe both.

As the number of souls swallowed by the mist increases, their aggression becomes stronger and stronger, and their surge speed becomes faster.

Now the situation has completely changed. It is no longer the monsters that rush towards the swamp fog in the distant sea, but the latter sweeps in and rushes towards the entire monster army.

"Veranika, the situation in the far sea swamp has changed. Don't worry about these defeated troops anymore. Prioritize your own safety and retreat to the direction of the main force." Gavin did not appear directly to face Nott below. The heavy cavalry of the guard used a high-level roaring technique to convey the order to retreat to them. That was something only a stupid ruler without strategic and tactical thinking would do.

The pursuers below have to face not only the mutations coming from the swamps of the distant sea, but most importantly, they also face a huge number of monsters. They are the Nott Guards Heavy Cavalry. The most direct threat.

Nott's Guards heavy cavalry were able to chase the monsters and run for dozens of kilometers, not because they had an absolute advantage in strength, but because they made full use of the inertia of the monsters' rout.

But once they roll back, Nott's Guards Heavy Cavalry and the others can easily become the main army formation in the rolled-up bead curtain. Even retreat is a science, it is not as simple as turning around and running away.

In fact, even without Gavin's order, Veranika, Nora and Thomas had already done this. Not only did they do this, but even the monsters couldn't help but stop. Stopped.

Because of the strange situation in the fog in the swamps of the distant sea, anyone who is not blind can see it.

The mist mutation is directly related to the devoured souls. As more souls are devoured, its activity becomes stronger, and the speed of external invasion becomes faster. The mist void that rushes through those monsters The more shadows there are, the faster the souls of those monsters are pulled out of their bodies.

Within a few minutes, the fog in the distant sea swamp actually gathered an army of foggy shadows. It was very targeted and launched an attack and erosion against the monster's defeated army.

Because except for the fog in the direction of the monster's rout that was protruding crazily outward, the fog in other directions in the distant sea swamp basically remained motionless, making it look like a huge tentacle that was constantly extending outward.

"Nott warriors, charge with me, form an arrow formation, follow my pace, and don't fall behind." Nora's discriminating roar echoed on the battlefield again.

Gai Wenming clearly issued an order to retreat. Not only did the Nott Guards Heavy Cavalry not retreat, but instead issued an order to charge.

Nott's Guards Heavy Cavalry quickly turned into a huge pointed cone. Under the leadership of Nora, it heavily bombarded the monsters' rout, causing those who were hesitant because of the misty changes in the distant sea swamps. The monster soldiers who were not moving forward were horrified. He screamed and surged towards the distant sea swamp. After all, compared to the monsters rushing at the front, the monsters at the back were unable to feel the threat from the front. On the contrary, Nott drove them away and chased them all the way. The heavy cavalry is more intimidating.

The monsters in front are retreating, and the monsters behind are rushing forward. The scene has turned into a pot of gruel. No matter whether they are advancing or retreating, they can't help but restrain themselves. The impact pace squeezed into a knot in the middle position.

The Nott Guards heavy cavalry did not run into the monster's rout. Instead, under the leadership of Nora, they drew a huge arc and scraped past the edge of the monster's rout.

Even if it was scraped, Nott's heavy cavalry brought a lot of damage to the monster soldiers. At least hundreds of monster soldiers were killed and trampled into a puddle of mud. Viewed from the air, the charging route of Nott's Guards Heavy Cavalry was a huge inverted U shape. In theory, they were still charging, but in fact, they were already on the road to retreat.

Retreating is also a science and a tactic, and followers of Ms. Strategy such as Veranika have finally figured it out.

There are many benefits to their charge and retreat, the most important of which are three.

The first is to stabilize one's military morale. Once the word "retreat" is uttered, whether it is a strategic retreat or not, it will shake one's military morale to a certain extent, resulting in some unnecessary commotion. It is far worse than retreating during a charge. .

The second is to frighten the monsters' retreat, so that they can't figure out the intentions of Nott's Guards Heavy Cavalry. By the time they react, Nott's Guards Heavy Cavalry has already run away with a rumble. If you are far away, you won't be followed and bitten by monsters.

Third, Nott's Guards Heavy Cavalry is relatively cumbersome as a heavy cavalry, especially when turning. If one of them fails, his own people will be crowded into a pile first, which will waste more valuable time.

Once the Nott Guards heavy cavalry withdrew, the hobgoblin wolf cavalry became much simpler. As light cavalry, they were flexible and wandered around the periphery. They were not in close contact with the monster rout. The monster's rout was just frightened by Nott's heavy cavalry, and they took the opportunity to get away. However, he did not rely on his own speed to run in front of Nott's Guards Heavy Cavalry. Instead, he wandered behind and launched long-range attacks on those monsters who dared to follow Nott's Guards Heavy Cavalry. There was no need to kill them, just They need to be suppressed for a period of time to allow Nott's Guards heavy cavalry to completely move away.

The conqueror army took the opportunity to get rid of the monster rout, but this false charge brought devastating disaster to the monster rout. The foggy shadows in the distant sea swamp took the opportunity to surge up on a large scale. .

"Get away, get away from me, stay away from me...ah..."

"I don't want to die, I don't want to die, get out of my way..."

"I want to Let me die, it's not that easy. I managed to get here with great difficulty, and the fireball technique..."

"Let me die..."

Seeing the monster's escape route blocked The rout of the army once again aroused the only remaining With great courage, they raised their weapons and launched a frenzied attack on those foggy shadows. As you can imagine, those foggy shadows were all made of fog. No matter how sharp the sword fell on them, they could pass through it. Destiny, no one knows whether it has caused substantial damage or not. After all, these foggy shadows cannot make a sound, they just surge forward, and the wounds cut by the sword will be completely healed in the next second.

Magic such as fireball has a good effect. I don't know whether it kills the foggy shadow. However, the fog where the fireball landed was cleared away on the spot, including those foggy shadows, forming a large open space. .

But what happened next was still disappointing. The endless fog quickly covered the area. The souls of countless monsters who had defeated the army were forcibly pulled out of their bodies, and then were The fog eroded and transformed into a new fog shadow.

This situation is like a snowball. The number of foggy shadows is getting bigger and bigger, and the erosion speed is getting faster and faster. It doesn’t take long for most of the monsters’ broken army to be submerged, except for those on the periphery. While screaming hysterically, they ran wildly into the distance. They had been driven crazy by the successive blows, and it seemed that the whole world was targeting them with malice.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Countless mist tentacles shot out from it, directly penetrating the scattered monster soldiers.

These mist tentacles did not have any physical lethality, and the bodies of the monsters that were penetrated were intact, but countless pairs of fog arms stretched out from the tentacles, firmly grabbing the souls of these monsters.

Those monsters broke down and fell to the ground as they ran, turning into a corpse. Its soul had been forcefully pulled out by the tentacles of the mist.

Because they were too close, both Gavin and Catherine were attacked by the mist tentacles in the air. Although Gavin really wanted to give the mist tentacles that shot at him a coffin hammer to see the killing effect, after all This kind of attack is at the soul level. The fog itself is not offensive. What is offensive is the fog shadows. They are very similar to those ghosts and shadows, but they are no longer composed of negative energy, but ether. energy.

The War Predator contains both the spark of immortality and the plan Ms. Strategy just got to plunder divinity. Maybe she can plunder these foggy shadows directly.

For safety reasons, Gavin finally suppressed his desire to attack, and the swamps in the distant sea would not escape. There would be plenty of opportunities to experiment in the future, so there was no need to do it when the enemy was at its strongest. Until now, The other party has absorbed not ten thousand but eight thousand souls. It would be okay if this fog was just acting instinctively. Once it has a common dominant consciousness, by doing this, you are poking a hornet's nest and attracting the other party's attention to yourself.

The attack speed of these mist tentacles is not particularly fast and cannot catch up with the flying speed of Gavin and Catherine. Moreover, its attack distance is obviously limited. After extending more than 200 meters, it will no longer continue to extend outward.

It was just robbing souls unscrupulously and had no specific hatred for an individual target. When it found that there was no way to attack Gavin and Catherine, it turned its target in other directions.

Preliminary estimates suggest that less than one-third of these monsters will be able to escape, and the remaining two-thirds will be completely trapped by the fog of the distant sea swamps. This is a total of 20,000 souls. The previous strategic lady was promoted The number of souls harvested in the War of Gods was only this amount. In the end, it was divided equally between Gavin and Ms. Strategy. Even if the quality was inferior, the quantity was real here. Unexpectedly, the distant sea swamp was the last one. Ate a ready made one.

"In a short period of time, keep your people far away from the swamps of the distant sea. If you swallow so many souls at once, this place will not be as simple as a large field, but will become an out-and-out god on earth. The country is not something ordinary people can face at all. If their abilities are restrained, even a god It's hard for an incarnation to take advantage here." Catherine warned with a serious look, "Don't expect to eat the swamps of the sea with a large army. This method of directly attacking the soul is too damaging to ordinary soldiers."< br>
“Understood.” Gavin nodded, indicating that he knew what was going on.

The current situation in the Distant Sea Swamp is actually the same as that of the Vizeme Manor.

It is just that the negative energy that filled the Vizeme Manor turned into ether energy, and the shadow generated by the negative energy infusing the soul turned into the mist and shadow formed by the infusion of ether energy.

If an army like a monster breaks out and attacks the Vizeme Manor, their fate will be the same as what happened here, and their souls and consciousness will become prisoners of the Vizeme Manor. , in the blink of an eye, they turned into the troops of Vizeme Manor, and turned around to attack their original comrades.

It’s just that compared to the fledgling Vizeme Manor, the power contained in the mist of the Distant Sea Swamp is more powerful. It no longer knows how many souls and consciousnesses of creatures it has absorbed in the Distant Sea Swamp.
