Chapter 689 Meeting of the Gods

Duanmu Huai looked at the figures in front of him and looked very calm. Of course he knew who these people were and why they were here.

"Greetings, gods of Faerûn."

Duanmuhuai nodded to the figures in front of him as a greeting.

"If possible, I would also like to invite you all to a grand banquet, but unfortunately, your time in the main plane is limited, so we'd better get to the point."

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai spread his hands.

"You may wonder why I appear here, so I will tell you the answer directly. To put it simply, some ancient evil gods are awakening, and they have discovered this world. As the vanguard against these evil gods, the Tribunal has will come here ”

"The ancient evil god?"

A majestic and mature paladin with white beard and hair who had lost his right hand had a slightly condensed expression.

"How old?"

"Believe me, they existed before your world was born. Even from a certain perspective, they are one of the roots of the existence of this world. Their power is far older and more powerful than you, which is not nice to say. of..."

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai glanced at the squirming shadows on the ground.

"Even AO is just a baby in front of them. Everyone... haha, you understand."

"So, you want to tell us that an ancient evil god has set his sights on our world?"

A middle-aged, wealthy woman holding a sickle blinked and stared at Duanmuhuai.

"Not one, there are four in total. Fortunately, because of the crystal wall, they have not found a way to enter this world yet. But with the power of those evil gods, now that they have discovered this world, it is only time to invade this world Question.”

"So, you called us here to seek alliance?"

A girl as thin as a ghost, with long hair and pupils as dark as night, and wearing a moonlight gauze robe asked softly.

"No, although according to legends or fairy tales, everyone should unite at this time to form an offensive and defensive alliance. But an alliance with evil intentions is meaningless to me. I am just telling you about the terror and terror of these evil gods, and how the Tribunal will deal with them. They, as for whether you want to form an alliance to watch each other, or each of you to go it alone, that is your own choice, and the Tribunal will not force you to do anything."

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai spread his hands.

"All I can say is that this Lost Land is the frontline fortress of the Tribunal against the Evil God. When the Evil God's minions break through the crystal wall and enter this planet, this place will become the first line of defense and battlefield. The Tribunal will not hesitate to Protect humanity at all costs and eliminate the evil god and his minions."

After saying this, Duanmu Huai also looked solemn.

"What I hate the most are those idiots who only half-talk their words, and those idiots who always treat gossip as secrets. So next, I will tell you all the information about the evil god in the simplest and clearest way possible. As for what you should do It's your business to use this information."

Then, Duanmu Huai explained the situation about the evil gods to the incarnations of the gods as quickly as possible, how they were born, how they existed, and how they affected and destroyed the world.

After listening to Duanmu Huai's narration, the incarnations of the gods all looked serious.

"In other words...these ancient evil gods...are the embodiment of the will of all living things in the world?"

The beautiful goddess with long bright red hair and a translucent gauze also suppressed the smile on her face at this moment, looking uneasy.

"That's right."

Duanmuhuai nodded.

"They each represent the duality of all creatures in the world. The treacherous is a cunning and cruel conspirator, but it also represents progress, hope and change. Without it, there would be no tricks, and no one can be saved from it. Nothing will ever get done, everything will come to an eternal standstill."

"This..."

Mystra frowned slightly and remained silent.

"The Corruption is an ugly, corrupt, foul-smelling idiot. It cycles between eternal life and death, representing stagnation, an eternal cycle of decay and rebirth. But it also represents restoration, awakening and Unite in the face of unsettling necessity. Without it there would be no continuity, no security, no birth and death. All corruption and rebirth are part of life, and therefore the taint of corruption is also nature and life. "

“……………………”

Shantia stared at the sickle in his hand and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Rage of Cruelty is a heartless, brainless, hateful maniac who only knows killing all day long, but it also represents another concept - survival of the fittest. Strength and skill are what Cruel Fury values ​​most. At the same time, it also It represents justice, revenge and glory, so violent anger will never play any tricks. It will only fool you in the face, so confusing that even your mother can't recognize it. Without it, there would be no honesty and resistance. The power of evil.”

"…………I just can’t imagine it."

Taylor sighed softly and shook his head.

"The Evil of Obsession is a cruel, torture-loving demon that likes to break all beliefs and then make them suffer. But it also represents happiness, freedom, joy and pleasure. Without it, there would be no happiness, and there would be no There is sadness so that you can understand what happiness is.”

"It's just a horrible nightmare."

Shuna closed her eyes, looking like she couldn't bear to look directly.

"So, you all know."

Duanmu Huai spread his hands.

"These ancient evil gods are not as simple as you think. This is not a battle between justice and evil, light and darkness. Either the beliefs you represent are their opposites. On the contrary, the beliefs you uphold are also shaping and becoming Part of the source of their power."

"So, how do we defeat them?"

Su Lun looked uneasy.

"According to you, they are almost impossible to defeat." "The probability of them being defeated is small, but not zero."

Duanmu Huai shrugged his shoulders.

"But the easiest way to defeat them is to take precautions beforehand. This is why I called everyone together - it is not easy for them to interfere in the real world. First, they have to blur the barrier between subspace and the real world. , and then they can intervene in this world. They have tried it once before, and the plague in Neverwinter is one of them. I think some of you have heard the reports of your followers."

Tyr nodded.

"Indeed, it was a terrible plague, and the betrayal of the followers of Helm was really unexpected..."

"I don't think it's that unexpected."

Duanmuhuai snorted coldly.

"You are not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but you are afraid of teammates who are like pigs. Now I think you should have understood the danger of these evil gods. Their essence is also hidden in your teachings. In other words, there are also some among your believers. Maybe he was bewitched by the evil god because of his fanatical belief, and then became the evil god’s lackey like that idiot Deszel.”

Having said this, Duanmu Huai looked at Shuna.

"Especially you, Miss Shuna, I know that your believers always like to hold some unobstructed gatherings to experience pleasure in the name of love and beauty. I have to remind you that doing so can easily attract the attention of the evildoer. , well... I remember there was someone who likes love and love as much as you do A guy who is beautiful, upholds elegance, and pursues perfection. Later, he was corrupted by the evil of obsession, and now he has turned into a guy who likes to have his butt exploded with a chain saw and axe, and claims to explore the limits of sensory pleasure to achieve self-enlightenment. Abnormal..."

“……………………”

Shuna's face turned pale when she heard Duanmuhuai's words.

"In addition, I also hope that you can expand your influence as much as possible and attract more believers - most of the power of the Chaos Evil God comes from the soul. If the soul killed by them does not go to the country where they believe in the god, Then it will be taken away by the evil god.”

"What about those unbelievers?"

At this time, another soldier who had been silent beside him suddenly asked, and Duanmu Huai glanced at him and snapped his fingers.

"I will find time to talk to Kelanvor. The Wall of the Unbelievers will also become the target of the Chaos Evil God. Of course, the Tribunal will not let them succeed. If it doesn't work, all the souls of the unbelievers will be taken to the Tribunal and burned. It is better than being corrupted and becoming a lackey of chaos and evil.”

"In that case, why can't we purify those ancient gods?"

At this moment, Lathander asked.

"According to your words, these evil gods do not only have an evil side, they also have a good and beautiful side. As long as we can bring out this side..."

"Theoretically it's possible, but in fact it's impossible."

Duanmu Huai spread his hands.

"I have already said that the large amount of negative emotions that constitute these evil gods come from the ancient war that lasted for millions of years. In that war, more than one million people died on the planet Toril. Sum, do you think you have this ability?”

"………………"

No one said anything, maybe they already thought of the answer.

After all, they have not been gods for a long time. Compared to the entire universe, they are just newborns.

"Of course, I'm not just saying this to you."

Duanmuhuai once again glanced at the dark shadows shaking below.

"I said, this is not a war between justice and evil, light and darkness. The evil gods are fair. They will corrupt everything, distort everything, and erode everything. They will turn you into something you never imagined. Of course, if any of you If you prefer a challenge and excitement, you can try it. I guarantee that our Inquisition will come to kill you in the next moment. ”

"So, was this the reason why you eliminated Rose before?"

"Oh, that's not true, it's just that Rose is a threat to humanity."

Facing Tyer's inquiry, Duanmuhuai gave a calm answer.

“………………………………”

"This is why I have called you all together."

Duanmuhuai looked at the time, then he looked at the gods in front of him again and said.

"I have clarified the goals of the Tribunal, the purpose of coming here, the threats of the evil gods, and the style of our Tribunal. As for what you plan to do, it is your own business, and the Tribunal does not intend to give guidelines. , of course, if you are eager to get more information about fighting the evil god Experience, you can come to me at any time, but I hope you will not use various methods to interfere with the actions of the Tribunal - after all, the principles and policies of the Tribunal are very clear, and anyone who interferes with our actions will be regarded as a potential heretic. The followers of the evil god were eliminated.”

Having said this, Duanmu Huai sat back on the chair again.

"Then, that's it, let's break up the meeting."

The next moment, the light dissipated, and all the glorious figures that were originally located here disappeared.

Only on the ground in front of Duanmu Huai were dozens of priests and high-ranking priests lying in random directions.

"Hey... I forgot to tell them to clean up their own garbage before leaving. It seems that the quality of the gods of Faerun also needs to be improved."

Duanmuhuai shook his head helplessly, and then issued the order.

"Send these guys out."
