Chapter 595: Have you seen the bright starry sky? That is the collapse of the Kingdom of God
No one can stop the flow of time.
July 23rd was the fifth day that the gods completely lost their traces.
Finally, some forces could no longer hold back.
He began to secretly and tentatively embezzle the high-quality assets of the sect.
Most of the sect's power has been buried in the Crimson Moon.
Faced with these greedy and ferocious wolves, the remaining armies of the sect were devoured without even putting up any decent resistance.
Those forces that had succeeded were a little worried at first, but after receiving huge benefits and not receiving any countermeasures, their inner greed began to rise.
After gradually letting go of worries, his actions became bolder and more outrageous.
Gradually from the dark to the bright side, if someone sets an example, others will inevitably follow suit.
Some forces that were already ready to move couldn't help but stretch out their hands when they saw that good things were falling into other people's pockets.
Once the hungry wolves smell the smell of blood, they will never give up.
Beginning on July 23, believers in the sect suddenly discovered that the sky had changed.
The various industries of the sect were seized and arbitrarily occupied by the great nobles and chambers of commerce under various names.
Even if believers want to resist, how can they fight against those powerful forces after losing the support of gods?
Next half month.
The great nobles and chambers of commerce, which had never been punished, completely let go.
They swarmed up like extremely hungry sharks.
Enjoy eating from the corpse of the sect.
Its huge interests have even led to conflicts and wars between a large number of forces.
The already chaotic situation became even more volatile.
The plunder of the sect did not gradually come to an end until August 10th. It was not that the consciences of the major forces discovered it, but that all the high-quality assets of the sect had been carved up.
In almost all major cities only churches remain.
Some brave ones even raided the sects.
When a giant falls, it will definitely cause countless people to cheer, and his corpse will nourish all things.
Those forces are the ones being nourished.
In Solan City, the first to take action against the sect was still the Luanwei Flower Merchant Guild.
Under Windsor's will, the Luanwei Flower Merchant Guild almost consumed 60% of the sect's power in just three days.
If it weren't for the quick reaction of the nobles in Solan City, I'm afraid they would have eaten them all.
But this time, unexpectedly, the Luanwei Flower Chamber of Commerce controlled by Weier also took action decisively.
Although due to their strength, they could not do as much as the Luanwei Flower Merchant Guild, but because of their extraordinary courage, in the end, it was estimated that they had taken at least 20% of the sect's assets.
A large number of high-quality assets have given the Luanwei Flower Chamber of Commerce a surge in strength.
In addition, with Grand Duke Suolan as his backer, no one dared to make any small moves against the Luanwei Flower Merchant Guild, even if it aroused the jealousy of many nobles.
The highlight of Twilight City, the Magic Sound Box, has increased its daily production to 200,000 units after both the Luanwei Flower Chamber of Commerce and the Violet Chamber of Commerce acquired a large number of new assets.
Once those powers are completely digested, the output can be greatly increased.
When Richard received the news from Weier, he was also surprised by the girl's skill.
The timing of the other party's intervention was too decisive. He did not pass on the news of the disappearance of the gods to the other party. Weir made the decision entirely on his own.
If it weren't for lack of strength, I'm afraid that the share of food eaten might not be lost to the Luanwei Flower Chamber of Commerce.
After this incident, the Luanwei Flower Chamber of Commerce proposed to spin off all the Magic Sound Box production factories and establish a separate chamber of commerce.
This chamber of commerce is jointly managed by the Luanwei Flower Chamber of Commerce and the Violet Chamber of Commerce.
When Richard heard the news, he didn't say anything and let Weier make his own decision.
Weier has proven his ability, he just needs to let the other party do it.
On August 11th, in the evening, when the sky was getting dark.
A somewhat illusory figure entered the lord's mansion under the leadership of the guards.
Richard, who had just had dinner and was drinking tea, had a subtle expression on his face when he saw the other party.
"Your Majesty Tailong."
Wearing a black cloak and covering his face, the God of Fraud and Lies looked at Richard with complicated eyes.
The voice was hoarse.
"Lord Richard, Corruption Swamp has accumulated enough strength to be promoted to level five a month ago."
Richard asked doubtfully.
"I remember you reported it last time."
The God of Lies continued after a moment of silence.
"I am delaying the transformation of the Corrupt Swamp in order to allow it to absorb as much power as possible from the heart of the Chaos God."
"But in the past two days, the power emitted from the heart of the Chaos God has obviously weakened, and there is no need to continue to suppress it."
"According to the current progress, Corruption Swamp will be promoted in a week."
"It's a pity that the corruption swamp cannot be transformed again."
Under Richard's increasingly doubtful eyes, the God of Lies took a deep breath and expressed his intention of coming this time in a low tone.
"Sir, my authority has been taken away. Now I am just an ordinary life with a soul in the world. I am no longer the god of fraud and lies!"
He said with a bitter look on his face.
"Even if I try my best, I can only retain my divine power for a month."
"Now, I can no longer control the swamp of corruption for you."
"Please also rearrange personnel to manage."
"In addition, I am also asking you to resign this time."
Before the other party finished speaking, Richard stood up, walked forward slowly, and looked directly into the other party's eyes.
Word by word.
"Your Majesty Tailong, I disagree."
His right hand patted the opponent's shoulder hard before his body was condensed.
"Promoting the Corruption Swamp to Level 6 is the task I gave you. Now the Corruption Swamp has not yet reached Level 5. What, you want to give up halfway?"
The God of Lies was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly.
"But I"
Richard waved his hand and interrupted the other party's words.
"I don't need to hear your excuses and reasons. I just tell you that now, the corruption swamp is still managed by you. Do you have any opinions?"
Hearing that unquestionable tone, the God of Lies' eyes became a little touched.
"My lord, I."
"I said, do you still have any opinions?"
"I"
"Huh?"
The God of Lies looked at that unquestionable look. After being stunned for a long time, he took a long breath and gritted his teeth.
"Sir, I will obey your arrangements!"
"But my current power is no longer enough to control the situation. I would like to apply for a hero to be dispatched to help me."
Richard's expression softened a bit.
"I will ask Gunter to assist you."
"Okay, if you have nothing to do, go down."
The God of Lies felt a little lost at this moment. After a few wry smiles, he took a deep look at Richard.
Then he put his right hand on his chest, bowed deeply, and saluted him with the most sincere gesture.
After the ceremony, he turned around and left.
It's just that the heavy steps when he came have become brisk.
But just as he was about to step out of the hall, a calm voice sounded behind him.
"Not just you, the gods have also lost their authority."
"A new era is coming, and no one can survive it alone."
"And what is lost now does not mean that you can never get it back in this life!"
"Tailon, I will help you get your authority back."
"You just need to remember that whether you are a god or a mortal, you are all from my Twilight City."
"You decide for yourself where to go in the future."
The God of Lies trembled, his eyes became extremely struggling, and after a long pause, he took that step and walked out of the door.
After leaving the lord's mansion, the God of Lies did not look back and walked towards the outside of the city step by step.
Under the cloak, the face hidden in the shadows now showed an expression that no one could understand.
Various buildings are still under construction in the Twilight City at this moment, which looks very busy and lively.
In the past, the God of Lies did not care about such scenery.
But at this moment, seeing those smiling faces and eyes full of hope and longing, my inner emotions gradually began to stir.
Everything around him suddenly became no longer strange to him, and there was no longer any barrier.
Because after the leader with strong charisma told him that he was a member of Twilight City, everything became different.
Today, he has a new identity - a resident of Twilight City.
After he lost his authority and strength, Twilight City still accepted him.
The originally wandering heart felt an inexplicable sense of belonging.
The city under his feet is no longer his shackles, no longer a tool for him to regain his strength, but his reliance and even the object he wants to protect in the future.
That kind of transformation seems exaggerated, but at the lowest point in life, it seems so natural.
"Ding~ You have gained the allegiance of the God of Fraud and Lies. Your ability to detect fraud and lies has reached legendary level. Anyone who wants to lie in front of you cannot do so without leaving any clues. Your eyes can see through people's hearts. .”
When Richard heard the prompt in his ear, his expression became quite exciting.
Good guy, I didn’t expect that he would get such benefits if he left the God of Lies behind. It was a pure unexpected surprise.
He scoffed at the idea that the God of Lies wanted to leave.
Losing power does not mean death. Even if he becomes a mortal, the God of Lies is the best teacher. How could he let the other person leave?
How valuable would the knowledge in a god's mind be? This is a pure treasure.
Talent is always the most important.
What's more, there is no chance of regaining power in the future.
Richard, who was in a happy mood, suddenly thought of something. He read the prompts several times and found something strange. The system prompts still called Tai Lung, who had lost his power, the God of Fraud and Lies.
what does that mean?
Although the opponent has lost his power, he is still a god?
Or will the opponent be replaced before the new god of fraud and lies is born?
Does this mean that other gods are like this? This information is useless at first glance, but he has a keen sense that it is not simple.
After thinking about it, I wrote it down. This information may be useful in the future.
After turning off the prompt panel, Richard sat down again in a comfortable mood and asked the maid to change the tea.
In addition to the God of Lies himself, the news that the Corrupt Swamp will be promoted to level five in a week also makes him quite excited.
What does Level 5 Corruption Swamp mean?
All members are extraordinary soldiers! !
After several months of accumulation, the number of soldiers in the Corruption Swamp, with potential of 3 stars and level 17 Blood Slayers, has approached 20,000.
This promotion means that soon, he will be able to directly have two legions of extraordinary arms in his hands! !
It’s simply amazing!
These damn soldiers are extraordinary, not just cats and dogs!
Even in the recent war between the Allied Forces of the Gods and the Crimson Moon, extraordinary soldiers were the absolute backbone.
In the current turbulent situation, it is undoubtedly a great joy for the army in hand to receive a wave of reinforcements.
Moreover, the current chaos is far from reaching its peak, and even the deprivation of power by the gods is just the beginning. Next, the three major camps of the abyss, hell, and undead will be connected to the main plane.
The gods who have lost their authority will also wander around the main plane again.
That's when the real turmoil begins.
Although it is located deep in the desert, under such circumstances, who dares to say that Twilight City is safe?
Although the crisis has not yet arrived, Richard can already smell the strong smell of blood.
As he was thinking, the last ray of light in the sky dimmed.
The silver moonlight quietly fell into the hall through the open windows, echoing the light of the magic lamp.
It took a long time for Richard to regain his emotions, and he also felt some special emotions when he saw this scene.
He took a few steps to the window and looked up at the bright moon.
That graceful and luxurious figure quietly emerged in his mind.
I wonder what Windsor will be doing?
When the old days are revived, apart from the gods being deprived of their power, what else will be revived?
After being dazed for a while, Richard came back to his senses. Just as he was about to turn around and leave the window, his expression suddenly froze.
I saw stars twinkling suddenly one after another in the night sky.
Glowing brightly.
Hundreds or thousands of them flash at the same time, lighting up the entire sky, and the picture is extremely spectacular.
This is?
While Richard was amazed, he also felt a little doubtful.
His intuition told him that this dreamy and charming scene did not seem to be a beautiful thing.
After a while, the star's shining light reached its peak.
At the same time, there was a rumble, a terrifying sound like thunder falling from the sky.
Along with this, there were countless painful and desperate screams.
Millions of sounds gathered together, creating a terrifying echo that could tear apart eardrums.
"My God, save me!"
"Ah!!! My hand!"
"Why is the Kingdom of God broken?!"
"No!!"
Among the countless noisy and terrifying sounds, a frightening message can be vaguely heard.
The bright stars in the sky are the broken kingdom of the gods! !
At this moment, all the intelligent beings in the main plane raised their heads and stared blankly at the bright starry sky. In the shock, they could not recover for a long time.
When the believers of the gods all over the city-state saw this dreamy and beautiful scene, the luck in their hearts suddenly shattered, and they collapsed to the ground in despair and powerlessness, their eyes full of sorrow.
Their god has truly fallen! !
Those greedy and ambitious nobles were now caught in an even bigger carnival.
When the twinkling stars in the sky went out, countless nobles immediately sent their most powerful troops to attack the church. They wanted to get ahead of others and squeeze out the last drop of oil and water.
Glory Era, 7601, August 16th.
Historically known as the Day of Shining Stars, it is also known as the Twilight of the Gods. (End of chapter)
