Chapter 430: Participating in the War of Gods (a 10,000-word chapter, please order)
There is no doubt that it is not easy to establish a huge trade alliance with a unified currency, tariffs, and markets in Faerûn. to things.
In other words, since the birth of intelligent creatures on this land, no race, civilization or country has been able to do this.
Excluding the aboleth empire, the creator racial civilization, and the era of giants and dragons competing for hegemony, which are too old to understand the specific situation at that time, the elves came to this world and Counting from the 20,000 to 30,000 years since clear historical records began.
Whether it is the elves who launched several crown wars and destroyed themselves, or the subsequent rise of human magical civilizations Imaskar and Netheril, as well as Shaan, which once occupied almost half of the land south of the west coast. The empire is no exception.
If viewed from a modern perspective, they are actually similar to the "Holy Rome" created by the German Tribal Alliance. They are both the kind of bulk empires whose power and governance are extremely decentralized and may split from the middle at any time.
No way!
Who makes the magical power in Faerûn so powerful and abundant that a high-level mage's own strength is equivalent to a powerful, fully armed army.
Therefore, when personal power exceeds a certain critical point, its political form and social structure will also change accordingly.
Especially for centralization, a necessary operation to create a unified form, it is simply a huge insurmountable obstacle.
After all, power corrodes people's hearts, and strong individual power will infinitely amplify selfishness and desire in human nature.
Imagine if you were a powerful spellcaster lord, ruling over a city and a large area of land and people, and could promulgate, modify, and delete laws at will, and stamp yourself on minted currency With his avatar, just one order can determine the life or death of a person or a group of people.
Then you will be willing to hand over these powers or part of them, and take the huge risk of losing some of the existing ones, to promote a huge trade alliance or even a highly centralized unified country, just to make those civilians live a little better. Better?
The answer is obviously no!
Perhaps a very small number of people with high moral standards will have such an idea, but they will soon be defeated by the cruel reality.
If you look at the history of Faerûn, you will know how difficult it is to implement the word "unification" in this land.
Needless to say, the era of the elves is natural. The several crown wars almost required their brains to be beaten out. The level of bloodshed and cruelty was not compromised at all because they were of the same race and shared the same beliefs.
In the end, he ended his hegemony over the continent of Faerûn. The entire pantheon was permanently torn into two parts. The spider goddess Rose led the dark elves into the Underdark to develop and open up the world. Ten thousand years of hatred towards the surface elves.
As for the two most famous human magical civilizations, Imaskar and Netheril, they are both called empires by scholars.
But it is actually closer to a parliamentary alliance formed within a specific geographical area and based on common ideologies, values and understanding of the power of magic.
The only difference is that Imaskar makes artificers the lords of various places, and then unites these artificers to form a semi-feudal, semi-parliamentary country.
Netheril, on the other hand, has the floating city as its core and relies on the long-term and stable relationship between the great arcanists to maintain its national existence.
This is why, after the rise of the genius Grand Arcanist Karsus, Netheril quickly fell into serious divisions, and even almost broke out in civil war.
Even when these two civilizations were at their peak, they were still far from the word "unification".
Even merchants need to pay tolls and duties when doing business in areas under the jurisdiction of two different lords in the country.
It is so divided economically, not to mention politically.
Coupled with the influence and interference of external forces such as gods, demons, devils, angels, etc., as well as the geographical segmentation caused by inconvenient transportation and communication, this ultimately led to a high degree of decentralization of power, which has plagued Faerûn. A persistent disease in mainland China to this day.
But now, with the birth of airships that have both speed and load capacity, the dawn of "unification" finally appears for the first time.
The reason why Zuo Si first advocated the establishment of a trade alliance to achieve a certain degree of economic unification was to first test the reaction of major forces, organizations and even the churches of the gods.
Because this is a typical behavior of making the cake bigger, in theory everyone can benefit from it, so the resistance is relatively not that big.
After a complete and huge market, currency, and tariff system are established, economic unification will inevitably promote political unification.
In order to protect their own interests and social stability, the emerging businessmen and citizens will do their best to promote the formation of a politically unified, large and powerful country.
Only in this way can they maintain their ideal living conditions under the protection of the state machine, without having to worry about the eventual disintegration of the trade alliance due to some trivial matters or disputes.
In addition, Zuo Si was very smart and did not choose to come forward on his own. Instead, he chose to entrust the church of Woking, the goddess of wealth, with full authority to negotiate with various towns.
The advantage of doing this is that it can give the entire plan a divine and religious meaning, making people feel that the leader behind it is the goddess Wojin who is in charge of trade and wealth.
According to the traditional thinking of most people in Faerun, they will only think that this is a move by the goddess of wealth to expand her influence, rather than seeing it as a political temptation.
The ruling class in most areas will not risk offending a true god by secretly making small moves without causing any impact or threat to themselves.
After all, once the Church of the Goddess of Wealth is offended, it will directly call on merchants to implement a trade embargo, or suspend currency exchange business in the region, which will be disastrous for any country or even town.
There are many bloody examples in history that show what kind of terrible impact and damage Waking can cause to a country at all costs.
Of course, since the trade alliance needs to unify tariffs, currency and related laws, it will weaken the control of each franchisee's own finances to a certain extent.
Therefore, even the Silver Moon Alliance ruled by Alustriel encountered a lot of trouble when reaching internal consensus.
Golden Dragon Queen Veramalandes even had to personally take action and dig out some dirty information about opponents seeking power for personal gain and taking corruption and bribery, and then she suppressed the opposition.
Finally, on the fourth day after the airship arrived in Silver Moon City, the two parties signed a contract of dozens of pages under the witness of the Goddess of Wealth.
At this point, a trade alliance covering Amn, Kalimshan, Luskan, Nelanthel Islands, and the Silver Moon Alliance was officially established.
Of course, Baldur's Gate, which has essentially become a puppet regime, and the West Heartland region to the west, which will soon be included in the rule, may also be added.
When Shane VII takes over the Kingdom of Tethyr, the area will also become part of the Trade Alliance.
As for independent towns such as Waterdeep City, Neverwinter City, Yatta, Chang'an Town, Red Pine Town, Noisy Water City, etc., we still need to discuss them one by one.
However, with the joining of the Silver Moon Alliance, I believe these towns will soon realize that if they cannot become a member of the alliance, their business and trade will soon be dragged down in the fierce competition. collapse.
So they don't have much choice at all. They can either choose to join in as soon as possible and take advantage of this ride, or they can choose to gradually decline and die in the tide of the times.
“Phew—it’s not easy, but we finally got it done smoothly. From today on, we will join hands to enter a new era.”
Alustriel stretched out in a very lazy and relaxed posture, perfectly showing off his slender and graceful body curves.
At this moment, she was lying on the marble guardrail on the high balcony of the palace, looking down at the crowds of people in the market that were impossible to see on weekdays, and her eyes revealed unprecedented satisfaction.
Through the report sent by the tax department not long ago, Ms. Hope has learned that from the time the airship landed until now, the taxes generated by transactions in Silver Moon City alone are worth the total of the past year.
Those Amn merchants not only sold large quantities of goods at low prices, especially grains and livestock that had a huge gap in the past, instantly making the originally tight food reserves extremely abundant.
And we are constantly purchasing local specialties, such as magic ink used to copy scrolls and spells, animal furs, sauces, fresh fish, nuts, rare and precious woods and herbs, and specialty fresh fruits and vegetables. etc.
In short, as long as it can be loaded into the airship and can be sold at a reasonable price, they will accept everything.
After all, a round trip only takes a few days, so as long as you keep it carefully, you don’t have to worry about it getting damaged.
What's more, the consumption concept of Ascatra's upper class is to show off their wealth through all aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
So the merchants who buy fresh food have no doubt that these guys are willing to spend a lot of money to hold banquets at their homes to serve fruits, vegetables and fresh fish from Silver Moon City in the far north, so as to entertain the guests. They were shocked.
Villamarandez also slightly praised: "It is indeed a new era.
Do you know?
I smelled spices and sugar in the cheap set meals provided by several ordinary hotels and pubs in the city last night.
These two things used to be luxuries that only the rich, nobles and mages could afford.
But now many civilians can afford it.
This was something that was almost unimaginable before.
In addition, the cattle brought from the south will also become the best helpers for farmers to cultivate land.
The only regret is that Soth, who came up with all these ideas, was not present.
By the way, what is he busy with recently? "
Alustriel couldn't help but turned around and asked with a smile: "Do you think I will know?
Stop it!
That guy is a planeswalker.
I can’t even be sure whether he is in Faerûn at this moment, or whether he has gone to other planes and worlds.
But according to the information provided by the Harper Alliance, Soth seems to have participated in the divine war that broke out in Zhentil Castle not long ago.
He even personally destroyed an incarnation of Cyric, the Prince of Lies.
And because of this incident, the local sky is still filled with an unprecedented mysterious substance and energy.
Many mages have gone there, trying to figure out what these primitive and uncontrollable substances and energies are.
To be honest, I have never been able to figure out Soth's inner thoughts and purposes.
Because sometimes he is evil, cold, and cruel, and can kill enemies and torture their souls without any psychological pressure;
Sometimes he seems to be a wise and kind great man. Rulers always make the people under their rule live better than elsewhere.
Especially providing free food to the elderly, disabled and children who are unable to work, even the church of Ilmat, the god of suffering, praised this.
The most important thing is that he has neither the kind of like-minded friends in this world who share life and death, nor a lover who is willing to sacrifice everything for him, nor does he show any excessive desire in any aspect.
In other words, he has almost no weaknesses that can be exploited.
Don’t you think this is strange? "
Villamarandez nodded thoughtfully: "Well - it's indeed a bit strange. After all, this is the first time I have seen someone reject your invitation more than twice in a row. Maybe Soth has some unknown hobby. "
"Maybe he doesn't like women? ”
Alustriel made a bold guess.
Villamarandez immediately shook her head: "Impossible. When I took a bath on the airship last time, I noticed that he had a strong physiological reaction, so this can basically be ruled out. "
"There must be something unspeakable
Otherwise, I really can't think of why a young man with huge power, wealth and power doesn't even have any tidbits.
You have to know that even prudes like Elminster and Kelburn often saved women who had fallen off their feet when they were young
The former even maintains a super-friendship with a dragon. ”
When he said these words, Alustriel’s eyes were filled with the burning fire of gossip.
Soon, these two men held the highest power in the Silver Moon Alliance. The women began to have a heated discussion about why Zuo Si was not lustful.
Facts have proved that human beings cannot be idle, otherwise their minds will have uncontrollable thoughts.
< br>Of course, Zuo Si still doesn’t know how Alustriel and Verama Landas arranged for him secretly
At the moment, he is sitting in his own chair in the Pantheon, watching Musk, the god of thieves, acting there, pretending to be a victim, and then unscrupulously smearing, slandering, and falsely accusing Cyric, and putting all the shit in the pot. They all slapped this guy on the head.
It seems that if you don't kill Cyric, you are appeasing the traitor. Sooner or later, it will cause unimaginable destruction to the entire world and even the gods.
If these words were spoken by other gods, it might be easier for people to accept.
After all, the Prince of Lies is indeed not a good guy.
But Musk, who induced and was deeply involved in most of Cyric’s conspiracies, obviously does not have such qualifications.
"What do you think of the performance of the Lord of Thieves?"
Ogma, the God of Knowledge, sitting aside, asked in a low voice with a smile.
Zuo Si responded in a slightly joking tone: "In terms of acting, I would give it five out of ten.
It's too artificial, full of deliberate stage drama.
But for showing true feelings, I give it a perfect score.
It can be seen that he really hates Cyric and wishes he could get rid of him quickly. "
"Pfft——"
Midnight, the goddess of magic sitting not far away, obviously heard this comment and couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing.
Perhaps due to the relationship that has been nourished by love recently, this mother of magic not only exudes an amazing feminine charm from the inside out, but her personality is also much more cheerful than before
The most obvious thing. The change lies in her dress
The simple and elegant dark silk robe that she usually wears has now been replaced by a long lace skirt that exudes silver light.
Through the translucent hollow part, you can even see the looming underwear inside.
And every few minutes, Midnight would exchange glances with Kelanvor, who was sitting on the throne of Death in the distance.
This kind of love that extends from mortals to gods has undoubtedly aroused the interest of Suna, the god of love and beauty.
The Fire-haired Lady is paying close attention to the relationship between two powerful gods, and the possible final results of this "love".
It can be said that in the entire pantheon, except for Tyr, the god of justice, who conscientiously performs his duties and presides over meetings, the other gods basically do everything.
It’s just like those ordinary people on earth who secretly chat, play with their mobile phones, daze, and doze off during meetings.
There are also some gods who are not interested in conquering Cyric, and even simply leave the table to do whatever they need to do.
After all, God is a very arbitrary creature.
After Musk, the God of Thieves, finished stating the crimes committed by Cyric, the entire pantheon was almost half empty.
Seeing this situation, Tyr sighed helplessly, knocked on the table and asked loudly: "Does anyone else want to speak?
You must know that this is a trial of His Majesty Io. The powerful divine power that has been promoted.
We must provide sufficient evidence to ensure that both the procedure and the reason are legitimate enough."
"The great God of Justice, I have a few words. I have something to say."
Seeing that these gods were a bit unreliable, Zuo Si had to stand up and prepare to take action himself.
"Oh? Of course, no problem! If you have the exact evidence of Cyric's guilt, then please bring it out now. With the current statements, it is obviously not enough to launch a divine war against him."< br>
Tear put on a business-like look.
Zuo Si nodded slightly, walked straight to the center of the hall, took out the "Hyrik Sutra" directly, held it in his hand, and said straightforwardly: "I think everyone sitting here should know What is it, and what is its evil intention?”
“Damn it! Why did you bring the evil artifact created by that madman to this place?”
Guard. Shen Heim suddenly stood up from his chair, his eyes full of vigilance.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to open it, nor am I interested in reading out the arrogance, arrogance and ignorant nonsense inside.
I just want to tell you how to create this book from the beginning. From the moment of the book, Cyric is already the enemy of the gods
Because his ambition is to eliminate all other competitors and make himself the only true god in the world.
Especially in the last few pages of this book, there are even a lot of slanderous and slanderous words that are suspected of insulting His Majesty the God of God Io
So I think this book is enough. Convict Cyric of blasphemy.”
After saying that, Zuo Si threw the "Hyrik Sutra" directly onto the podium, making a muffled sound.
In an instant!
The Pantheon became silent.
Tyr, the God of Justice, was silent for a long time, and finally nodded with a serious expression: "You are right.
This book alone is enough to convict Cyric.
Now I initiate the poll as the moderator.
Raise your hand if you agree to launch a divine war to force the Dark Sun to surrender. ”
The next second...
Including Bane, the god of tyranny, Midnight, the goddess of magic, Kelanvor, the god of death, Tyr himself, the god of justice, Ogma, the god of knowledge, and the God of Dawn. Lord Lathander, God of War Tempus and other powerful powers raised their hands.
In addition, a large number of medium powers, weak powers and weak powers also joined in. < br>
It can be said that more than four-fifths of the gods in the pantheon believe that Cyric should be taught an impressive lesson.
This Prince of Lies single-handedly broke the opposition between good and evil, order and chaos, and allowed the gods to reach an unprecedented consensus on a certain issue for the first time.
Even Shar, the goddess of the night, who secretly cooperated with Cyric, did not dare to risk offending so many gods this time and joined in.
Seeing this exciting situation, Tyr nodded with satisfaction: "Very good! Now I declare that the Council of Gods has officially approved the launch of a divine war against Cyric, the Prince of Lies. Next, form an army and The King of War will be responsible for the command."
Tempus stood up and grinned wildly: "Hahahaha! Please don't worry! In the name of the God of War, he will lead the coalition to conquer Cyric's country, and then escort him to the Pantheon to confess his crime as a loser. ""Do you have any suggestions about the formation of the coalition?"
Midnight asked in an uncertain tone.
"I will make a detailed plan for you later."
Yin Hong Knight took the initiative to take over the job for his father.
Because she knows that although Tempus has the priesthood of war, battle, and warrior, he maintains a chaotic camp because of the need to maintain the unpredictable nature of war, and is not good at organizing and planning work that tends to be lawful.
Seeing the goddess of strategy appear, the other gods were obviously relieved.
Because they are really afraid that Tempus will gather the coalition forces together, and then directly wave all the A's up, and compete with Cyric, a madman who is obviously abnormal in his brain.
Just when the gods reported the number of troops they could produce, Zuo Si, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said: "If you don't mind, can you let me join this battle between the gods?"< br>
“You?!”
The eyes of Tempus, the God of War, shone slightly.
He had long been interested in the young planeswalker's talent in provoking wars, creating conflicts and conflicts.
"I would like to ask you a question. In what capacity do you plan to participate?" Yin Hong Knight also asked tentatively.
"As the lord of the ninth level of Baator Hell."
Zuo Si said the answer in an unhurried tone that made the gods feel their hearts beat faster.
Although they had already learned that Zuo Si accepted Asmodeus's invitation when the goddess of wealth, Woking, returned last time and successfully obtained the identity of the unique form of the great devil.
Even many gods are still wondering whether the two have reached some unknown agreement and want to make a big move that will shock the world.
After all, Zuo Si has a criminal record.
Especially the summoning of the Eldrazi Titans from the abyss directly increased the scale and bloodyness of the bloody battle exponentially, which shows the madness hidden under his calm appearance.
Nowadays, even the evil gods feel chills down their spines when they see some creations that combine the "advantages" of both sides.
After being silent for a long time, Ogma, the God of Knowledge, was the first to break the silence and asked with great interest: "You want your demon army to participate in the war? What are the benefits? Do you plan to benefit from this war? What are the benefits? ”
"Soul!"
Zuo Si spit out a word from his mouth meaningfully.
"Soul?"
A flash of understanding flashed in Ogma's eyes, and he smiled and nodded: "Okay, I understand. You want to directly kill Xi All the petitioners in Rick's country were captured and brought back to hell to squeeze energy, right?"
Zuo Si responded with a smile: "That's right. br>
There are many ways to weaken the foundation of a god's faith.
Attacking its churches and believers in the material plane is only one aspect;
Stripping away its many clergy is another aspect.
But I think this is not enough.
If all the petitioners could be kidnapped, and Cyric, a madman, could only unleash his incompetent rage against the empty and desolate country every day, it would definitely be very pleasant. matter.
I believe you won’t reject my proposal, right? ”
As these words blurted out, every god present felt the chill from the heart.
Cruel!
Too cruel!
< br>This is far beyond the level of murder, and it also digs up the roots of the opponent
They could even imagine how weakened Cyric would be after suffering such repeated blows.
Maybe it won’t be long before he is unable to maintain his own existence due to the shrinkage of his faith, and then he will be pulled into the astral world to lie down.
The most important thing is that when he said these words, Zuo Si didn't have any respect for the god Cyric in his tone.
Combined with the series of arrangements he made before, anyone who is not a fool can feel the bottomless malice.
In the end, the moon goddess Suellen couldn't help but test it: "Have Cyric and his followers offended you before?"
"No, no."
Zuo Si shook his head with a smile.
"Then why are you targeting him like this?"
Su Lun's eyes revealed strong curiosity.
Although she didn't care about the life or death of the Prince of Lies, and even wished to see him suffer misfortune, she wanted to understand the motives of the young man in front of her.
Zuo Si touched his chin and thought for a moment, and then said in a slightly playful tone: "I think it may be because of simple dislike.
In my opinion, Cyric and his teachings are like the same person. Shit is always visible in front of your eyes, and just looking at it makes you feel sick and nauseated.
So in order to feel happy, you must disappear from a conspicuous place.
< br>If it were not for the sake of His Majesty the God of God Io, I would even kill it permanently through some special means when it is weakened to the extreme
After all, it is a waste. We need to deal with it cleanly so that disgusting people don’t appear again.”
"It's a very vivid metaphor. Although it's a bit vulgar, I can understand your thoughts now."
Su Lun pursed his lips and let out a smile.
As one of the twin goddesses of creation, she is obviously different from Shar's mysterious, claustrophobic, and evil temperament, and her incarnation form will also change according to the waxing and waning of the moon.
Because today is a full moon, she looks like a young human woman with a slender figure. She has long snow-white hair hanging down from her back to her ankles, and her eyes are shining with touching green eyes. Green light.
As for the clothes on her body, it is a looming white transparent gauze skirt, which has more symbolic meaning than practical significance.
Because in Zuo Si's eyes, this dress was basically as if he was not wearing anything. The places that should be seen and the places that should not be seen were basically exposed.
But maybe because of the characteristics of divine power, this kind of exposure does not make people want to blaspheme, but simply feels very beautiful.
In fact, if you look closely, you will find that the clothes of the Toril goddesses are actually quite open.
Suna, the goddess of love and beauty, and Liela, the goddess of joy, are goddesses with pleasure and love in their clergy. Their clothes are even more tempting than those of women engaged in some special service industries.
The spider goddess Rose's black silk dress obviously couldn't cover anything.
Her daughter, Eilistraee, the Dark Maiden, is always naked no matter what the occasion, with her hair covering her chest at most.
"Okay! I agree!"
Tempus, the God of War, gave a positive answer after thinking about it for a moment.
In his opinion, war and plunder are originally one, and there is no problem at all in doing so.
In contrast, although several lawful and good gods frowned, obviously disapproving of such behavior, they did not intervene to stop it.
After all, among the petitioners in Cyric's country, there is no innocent person even if there is not one of them.
Whether it is the evil ones he inherited from the previous kingdom of the Three Gods of Death, or the lunatics he recruited from the material world after becoming a god, they are obviously not good people.
After getting the answer he wanted, Zuo Si suddenly smiled meaningfully, took out a parchment scroll several meters long that had been prepared in advance, and placed it in front of the gods.
"In that case, let us sign a contract."
"Damn! The way you look now reminds me of Asmodeus, the Lord of Hell."
Ogma, the God of Knowledge, couldn't help but complain in a low voice.
Tyr, the God of Justice, Ilmat, the God of Suffering, and Tom, the God of Loyalty and Courage, even frowned.
But in the end, they all suppressed their inner rejection of the devil's contract and carefully read all the contents on the parchment scroll.
After confirming that there were no problems, loopholes or traps, everyone signed their names on it.
When the last participating god completed his signature, the scroll instantly erupted into a ball of hellish flames and burned it up.
Immediately afterwards, a huge force that could not be described in words first poured into the entire hell plane, expanding the already huge ninth level by another third.
Then this energy poured into Zuo Si's body across planes, greatly strengthening his demonic power.
Because he has just signed a powerful binding contract with the gods of the world of Toril on behalf of the forces of hell, and is also sending troops to open the door to a god with powerful divine power in the crystal wall. God war.
This undoubtedly greatly strengthens the influence of the devils in this world, and also strengthens the power of lawful evil in the universe.
"Now, you can go back and prepare the army. I look forward to seeing the performance of your demon army and the role they may play in this war." Tempus, the God of War, said excitedly said.
"I promise, they will never let you down."
After saying this, Zuo Si quickly left the Pantheon and kept his body in the mage tower of Askatra, while he transferred his consciousness The clone whose soul was transferred to the ninth level of hell.
The moment he opened his eyes, he immediately saw the Succubus Queen kneeling in front of him.
"Father, Asmodeus, the Lord of Hell, paid a sudden visit and is waiting for you in the living room."
Melcantheut used very gentle movements to help Zuo Sicong's sealed He stood up in the container, his eyes revealing undisguised fascination and admiration.
"Don't worry, I know why he came."
Zuo Si activated the card as if no one else was there, put the magic equipment and artifacts on his body, and then took the elevator to leave this room with the Succubus Queen. Secret room.
In about two or three minutes, they came to the living room and saw the Lord of Hell with a red face.
“Hahahaha!
Well done!
My young friend!
I can’t believe that not long after you took this position, you were able to sign a contract with the stubborn gods of Toril.
This is not an easy task.
At least I haven’t seen any lord of that level succeed except you.
Now, have you noticed the ecstasy of the will of the plane? ”
Asmodeus laughed and opened his arms, not hiding the joy in his heart at all.
"Of course I feel it. But a contract can produce such a result, which I never expected."
Zuo Si instantly transformed into a devil form, feeling the inner body of his body. The power given by the will of the plane.
At this moment, he finally understood why the devils were so interested in the contract.
Because every time a contract is signed, it means that the influence of the forces of hell is expanding to the entire universe.
And depending on the importance of the contract, the feedback generated is also different.
For example, the contract signed by the little devil and ordinary people may only produce a little power at best.
But if a contract is signed with a high-level devil with important figures such as noble lords, kings, powerful spellcasters, and religious leaders who can have an impact on society, then the feedback received will become extremely huge.
As for signing contracts with a large number of gods on an important main material plane to participate in the divine war, the result will be explosive growth like now.
What is true lawful evil?
Tyranny and tyranny are just one of its manifestations.
Through various means, people and gods acquiesce and accept the concept of lawful evil, and unknowingly change their thoughts and perceptions. This is the ultimate goal of lawful evil. .
There is no doubt that through that contract, Zuo Si achieved this to a certain extent.
That’s why we received huge feedback from the hell plane.
“Toril’s country, Tianyu Crystal Wall, occupies a very important position even in the entire multiverse.
This can be seen from the fact that the gods can send down incarnations that are stronger than those from other planes, as well as the authority held by Io, the god above the gods.
Although your motive this time was just to weaken Cyric's power to the greatest extent, you accomplished an incredible feat unintentionally.
So this contract must be completed beautifully enough to make those gods realize that cooperation with us is a profitable thing.
Since we are now temporarily free from the endless consumption of bloody battles, I decided to give you some additional troop support. "
After that, Asmodeus handed over a scepter symbolizing the command of the legion.
"This is..."
Zuo Si obviously saw this thing for the first time, and a puzzled expression appeared on his face.
Asmodeus smiled and explained: "It represents the highest command authority of the thirty demon legions.
You can use it to mobilize two of the eight demon generals. , end this war with the fastest and most violent action.
Since you have an excellent general like Zariel, I will not send you any additional commanders.
Oh, by the way, remember to let your legions perform a little in this war.
I want to confirm whether they have the power to fight against the Eldrazi and the new demons. ”
“As you wish. ”
Zuo Si put one hand on his chest and leaned forward slightly, and agreed straightforwardly.
He originally wanted to use this divine battle to test Zariel and her team that used white. What is the combat effectiveness of the mana-powered Shimmering Oil Legion?
After sending Asmodeus away, Zuo Si immediately came to the subsidiary plane-Karakatus.
As soon as he stepped into the land here, he immediately saw thousands of angel-like heavily armored mecha troops engaged in a simulated war on an open plain.
Of course, it is said to be a simulation, but in fact it is no different from a real war except that it will not kill you.
With the huge roar of the oil engine, these hell devils with the appearance of kind celestial creatures waved their weapons one after another, venting their inner desire for blood and killing.
Almost every second, someone will be teleported out of the battlefield due to excessive injuries and thrown directly into a huge pool of shining oil for treatment.
Among them, the most advanced "Angel of Killing" and "Angel of Violence" are like humanoid Gundams, with limbs and arms everywhere they pass.
The energy cannon on the shoulder can often open up a large open space on the scorching battlefield with one blast.
If you think this is the end, you are totally wrong.
In addition to mechas and personnel, there are tens of thousands of long-range attack weapons close to the rear of the warring parties.
The most impressive thing is undoubtedly those mobile cannons that look a bit short and thick, but are actually surprisingly lethal.
The principle of this thing is to use a scintillator engine to generate electricity, and then drive an electromagnetic ejection device to deliver shells filled with explosions and violent combustion directly to the opponent's position.
They require neither personnel operation nor so-called logistics.
The mobile special supply factory can absorb energy, decompose matter and finally synthesize cannonballs with various effects anywhere.
You don’t need to ask to know that this ability was learned by Xin Shuoyou from the ongoing war in Mirrodin.
Thanks to the incredible research and development capabilities of the blue demon judge Jinji Tasha and his scientific research team, the combat effectiveness of the two shining oil legions in the ninth level of hell has increased at an unimaginable speed.
Zuo Si felt that based on the strength of Zariel's million-sized army, if it were engaged in a modern war on Earth, it would definitely be able to easily defeat the combined armies of all countries.
Even if they use thermonuclear weapons, which are shocking, the latter may have little chance of winning.
After all, nuclear warheads need to be delivered remotely to exert their full power.
The devils have too many spells that can make the coalition lose this ability to deliver.
