Chapter 334 The Secret of the Abyss
Xu Lai understood exactly what Lina was talking about.
The original ownership of those angels was, of course, the late High King Aled.
But after Aled died, because there was no legal heir, the ownership rights temporarily belonged to the temple.
Perhaps, when the empire is reunited and a new King Aled is born, the temple will be under pressure to return the ownership rights of these angels to the new King Aled.
But before the new king is born, the king of the Northern Empire, the king of the Southern Empire, and the temple will not recognize them.
In the titles of the archbishops, they are still just the Archduke of Aled.
What Lina means is to let the temple use these big demons to catalyze his people. Even if the temple is willing, it cannot succeed.
But if Xu Lai just needs an angel, he can directly exchange the big demon with the temple.
Anyway, the temple only wants great demons. Whether they are recruited in hell cities, recruited from demon lairs in the wild, or recruited through diplomacy or captured, they want them all.
"So, what's the exchange ratio? This list doesn't say how much merit is required to redeem an angel."
If the temple dares to add angels, it is estimated that many people will be motivated.
Now I just put some treasures and equipment on it. Although they are very rare, such as the golden statue of the God of War, I can't get it all together. Secondly, the major lords also have similar treasures and equipment.
However, there are only so many angels in the temple, and independent angels cannot provide them, so they can only recruit angels.
Let’s not talk about these angels. They did not originally belong to the temple. Even if the temple shamelessly sells them publicly, they are not that large in number.
The most important thing is that doing so will divide the Angel Legion, causing the temple to lose more voice.
Therefore, even if the temple wants to give it, it will not give it to those lords.
On the contrary, a hero like Xu Lai, who has a good relationship with the temple but has a bad relationship with the lords, is a worthy target. The temple may be willing to let him go.
His team of angels has always been left unattended.
However, Lina shook her head and said: "Then I don't know. This kind of thing has always been decided by several crimson archbishops.
I can only tell you that if you have a tougher attitude, you can definitely get an angel. "
Xu Lai smiled slightly and said: "From your standpoint, this is not what you should say. "
Lina snorted and said: "Isn't that what you want me to say? Besides, what is my position? We will do whatever His Majesty the God of War tells us to do. "
After Xu Lai said this, he did not dare to continue teasing Lina, but asked another question that made him frightened.
"No one has ever explored hell. , you want to ask what's there, sorry, I can't give you an accurate answer.
Legend has it that there are countless demon gods in hell, but the demon gods, like the gods, are all sinking into the abyss.
Of course, that is just a legend that has been exaggerated.
According to the records of the temple, there is an abyss in hell, and Kerrigan is the great lord who came out of the abyss. Currently, the only recorded lords of the abyss are Kerrigan and his descendants.
The look and image you mentioned must be Kerrigan's without a doubt. His personal image data has already been spread throughout the temple and among the major lords. "
"But, didn't you say before that Kerrigan led the Burning Legion to fight in the Western Empire? "Xu Lai asked in confusion.
Lina sighed and said: "This involves the deep secrets of hell. I shouldn't have said it originally, but you already know it, so it doesn't matter if I tell you.
In fact, like Ke The death of abyssal demons like Regan and Sellon is not a complete death.
Since humans have written records, records of hell invasions can be seen in any period.
The reason why they break out every once in a while is because the abyss demons cannot be completely killed, because those who come to Middle-earth are not their bodies.
Their bodies will always be in the abyss. Unless someone can cross the abyss passage in the opposite direction, go to another world, and kill all the abyss lords.”
After saying that, Lina looked at Xu Lai with a little expectancy.
Xu Laize quickly waved his hands and said: "Don't look at me like this, I don't believe that no one has ever been to hell."
Lina said: "Of course there are countless warriors who go to hell. However, some of them want to kill those abyss lords so that they can live forever
Some just want to see another world, but no one can come back alive. >Even if he appears alive, he will no longer be a human being, but will become a demon and set foot on Middle-earth as an invader a thousand years later."
Xu Lai opened his mouth, and finally said helplessly: "So, what appears in the Western Empire now is just the clone of the Abyss Lord Kerrigan?
That's why I can see the pair in the abyss Eyes?"
Lina said: "I don't know if it is Kerrigan's clone, his incarnation, or just his projection. In short, it is not Kerrigan's complete body, not even Lianke. Regan's strength is less than one-tenth, because the abyss channel cannot transport an individual that is too powerful, which will directly crush the abyss channel
Just like the God of War cannot. Just like coming to Middle-earth, Kerrigan's true body will never come to Middle-earth, so you don't have to worry that Kerrigan will directly retaliate against you."
Xu Lai nodded, and then said in shock: "You mean, Kerrigan will still take revenge on me?"
Lina nodded and said: "If he doesn't want you to see it, there is There are a hundred ways to prevent you from seeing him.
But since he lets you see him, it must be to see you more clearly.
Why should an abyss lord be clear about it? Going to see a human being must be for revenge.
And, if nothing else, his revenge has already begun, but because you have the Medal of Honor given by the God of War, the perception is not obvious. ”
Xu Lai exclaimed: "It's not obvious enough. I guess I'm going to have nightmares for a few nights."
Lina said: "Even the most devout believer of the God of War would be shocked if the Lord of the Abyss took one look at him. There is a chance of becoming a demon.
Between hell and the world, do you think Kerrigan’s glance at you doesn’t need to consume his power?”
Xu Lai touched the medal of honor on his chest? , sighed: "To put it this way, this medal has really helped me many times."
Lina added: "Although the body of the Lord of the Abyss in hell can't do anything to you, but the Abyss There should be some connection between the lord's body and his clone.
Killing the abyss lord's clones will also greatly affect their true bodies.
Therefore, it can be inferred that there must be influence between them. If Kerrigan in hell wants to take revenge on you, it means that Kerrigan on the ground also wants to take revenge on you.
If we continue to stay here, the risk factor of our actions will inevitably increase many times. ”
Being targeted by the boss of a camp, the risk factor is not increased many times. Xu Lai will have to open one eye when sleeping from now on.
Although he is in the wilderness There was a lot of commotion in the area, and the boss of the stronghold camp was probably very angry with him, but he did not show his anger to Xu Lai after all.
The Great Lord of the Abyss actually got angry in front of Xu Lai.
And that look in his eyes can affect him across the whole world, which shows how terrifying he is.
When Lina said this, Xu Lai also backed down. The reason why he wanted to complete this task was to earn merit.
Even if we go back now, it cannot be regarded as a failure of the mission. At most, it can be regarded as an incomplete completion of the mission.
The second goal is to integrate with the Sixth Knights through marching and fighting. This goal has not been fully achieved, but at least he and the dozens of Paladins have known each other and are familiar with each other.
Both goals were half achieved, but the difficulty of the task increased significantly. The key was that the difficulty of the task was increased without additional reward, which made people somewhat uncomfortable.
Secondly, it is not very convenient to march with a bunch of prisoners, which means that he directly gave up the greatest speed advantage of the cavalry for these prisoners.
Xu Lai can now be regarded as a mercenary, that is, he is paid to fight. If there is no benefit, or the reward is not proportional to the effort, it is better to do less.
But if he just left like this, Xu Lai would be somewhat unwilling to do so.
"Well, we have been out for quite a few days, and the day after tomorrow is the last day of August. In order to avoid accidents, we will leave tomorrow evening.
During the day, let's see if those demons have the courage to fight us. Let's fight a decisive battle and leave. ”
Xu Lai has done everything he can, destroying facilities outside the city, chasing down the hell troops, dividing his forces to lure the enemy.
But he was also allowed to kill tens of thousands of demonic regular troops. Hundreds of thousands of miscellaneous soldiers and ordinary demons caused some losses to Hell.
However, even to this extent, the heroes of Hell could not come out to fight openly, so Xu Lai could not help it. There is no other way.
He can continue to go deep into the lava land. According to Elvi, there is a huge abyss passage there, and there are countless hell soldiers coming and going every day.
If Xu Lai goes to destroy this abyss passage, all the heroes in the entire lava land will definitely mobilize collectively to fight for Xu Lai.
But after doing that, Xu Lai was afraid that he would never come back.
What's more, this is not the job that a man with only 2,000 troops should do.
Since all methods failed to force those old turtles out, Xu Lai had no choice but to retreat. His time was very precious and he could not really use it to destroy the facilities of hell every day.
Before leaving, Xu Lai had to make one last attempt.
He wrote a letter himself, and asked Lina and others to help copy nearly a hundred copies, and asked Elvi to spread it into the devil's city at night.
Earl Ani previously sent a duel letter to the orcs in the stronghold. Although the demons are not as shameless as the orcs, they have hundreds of thousands of troops stationed here, so they will not dare to even have a duel.
