This lich needs more money
Chapter 490: The Temptation of Shar
All the gods were watching this massive war of gods.
But the result of the battle was unexpected, mainly because the process was too short.
Under normal circumstances, as long as the Kuo Tao Fish Goddess stayed in her kingdom of God and did not come out, it would be useless even if the three Dukes of Hell burned the water elemental plane into fish soup.
So those gods who might intervene hesitated and did not intervene immediately.
After all, the fight has not started yet. Wouldn't you become cannon fodder if you take action now? This is not the way to help the Kuo Tao Fish Goddess.
When the Kuo Tao Fish Goddess's kingdom of God is found and begins to be invaded by Hell, there will be a long time, maybe decades of fighting?
Wait until it is confirmed that Hell has no backup, it is not a double act to dig a pit to deceive people, it is not too late to take action after eliminating these dangers. Besides, there is Talos watching, so we have to wait and see how the Lord of Storms reacts. It is not because we are afraid of Him, but to be prepared.
But how did this crazy woman run away from the kingdom of God?
Has this mentally ill goddess always been so brave? Didn't you see the three Dukes of Hell here? Didn't you see the overwhelming army of demons?
With this lineup, the Lord of Dawn must be alert, otherwise he will fall.
Most of the gods can't understand what happened. Few gods understand the origin of the Kuo Tao fishmen, and they don't know the role of the God of Alchemy here.
The Heart-Flayer Bone Whistle, which should not have affected the gods, is strong enough to have a strong mental impact after being strengthened by the God of Alchemy.
The Kuo Tao Fishmen Goddess was originally invented because this race has experienced unimaginable torture. It is to seek spiritual comfort and the direction of all chaos and pain.
If the Kuo Tao fishmen are mentally ill, then the Kuo Tao Fishmen Goddess is a mental illness that is billions of times more serious, so that mental illness has become her priesthood.
Not only that, too many Kuo Tao fishmen have escaped from her control recently.
Those Kuo Tao fishmen who have regained their normal thinking will no longer provide faith for her, causing the power of the Kuo Tao Fishmen Goddess to be greatly weakened in a short period of time.
The medium divine power could not be stabilized and was about to become a weak divine power.
At this moment, the whistle that was like a natural enemy broke through the blockade and hit his soul directly.
The Kuo Tao Fish Goddess was just like those ordinary Kuo Tao fishmen. She was controlled by the hatred that had accumulated for countless years and rushed out of the kingdom of God to kill all those "heart flayers".
However, the Kuo Tao Fish Goddess was not facing the heart flayers, but the three covetous Dukes of Hell and the devil army they brought.
In just a moment, the big lobster brought by the Kuo Tao Fish Goddess was torn to pieces by the devils.
Even though this was the water elemental plane that the devils found difficult to adapt to, the gap between the two sides was too big, whether it was quantity or quality.
The Kuo Tao Fish Goddess herself lost her mind again. At the moment of the battle, her body was pierced by Zariel's flaming sword, leaving a broken wound that could not heal.
Just one sword severely injured the Kuo Tao Fish Goddess, and there was no suspense in the next battle.
After the three dukes of hell tied up the Kuo-Toa fish-man goddess, they left at a very fast speed, not daring to stay any longer.
By the time the gods reacted, they had already left the water elemental plane and returned to hell.
The process was so smooth that even Talos, who was watching the excitement, did not react. He was still waiting to see the three hell demons being besieged by the gods?
It ended so quickly?
This Kuo-Toa fish-man goddess is too useless, right?
Could it be that they are a group, acting together?
Not only Talos has this idea, but many other gods also have doubts, after all, the Kuo-Toa fish-man goddess is also in the evil camp.
In the depths of a certain darkness, in a kingdom of gods called the "Lost Palace".
The pale dark goddess Shar was lying tiredly on a bed like a galaxy. A tall man beside her was holding Shar's hand and transmitting huge power into her body to heal the injuries left by her punishment by Io.
If Amber was here, he would recognize who this tall man was at a glance. He was the vice president of the Mourning Poetry Society, the poet.
When Shar's face became better, the poet withdrew his hand and said to Shar: "It seems that Io really favors you. It is obviously the same mistake, but Rose's punishment is much more serious than yours."
Shar did not respond to this question, but stared at the poet and said: "You actually came to help me, I thought..."
"Think I will hate your betrayal and kill you when you are weak?" The poet laughed and continued: "I have forgotten those things a long time ago. You should know that I am following Jaeger now, and this person does not like this kind of petty hatred."
Shar was silent. Facing the man in front of him, he did owe something.
Because the poet was once his ally, an existence older than Shar.
At the beginning of Io's creation, before the goddesses of light and darkness were born, an ancient life called Shadow Sin had already appeared, and the poet was one of them.
Later, Shar was born with his sister Selune, and the two sisters assisted Io in creating the world. Later, the sisters turned against each other, and Shar was defeated by Selune. The first generation of magic goddess was born from Shar's wound.
While Shar was seriously injured, Shadow found the dark goddess and helped her recover her strength.
The reason is also very simple. Both the Dark Goddess and Shadow Evil hope to return the world to shadow chaos, hoping to build a world without sunlight.
Shar was able to take a breath, otherwise Selune would have completely eliminated her.
But in the end, Shar failed to fulfill her promise and could not return the world to the shadow of chaos. Later, Azuth, the subordinate god of the goddess of magic, designed a trap to capture a large number of shadow evildoers, but Shar ultimately did not go to the rescue because he was afraid of the power of the goddess of magic.
By now, Shadow Evil has become an endangered species.
Although Shar couldn't be said to have framed Shadow Evil, he certainly owed him a lot.
Therefore, Shar never expected that when he fell into a weak state again, the poet would come to help him again.
The poet looked at Shar's guilty expression and said comfortingly: "Our goal is ultimately vain. At that time, Io had not yet thought about what kind of world to create, so there was a battle between light and darkness. Now. The world is already turning, which shows that Io is very satisfied with the current state. After all, we can't let everything return to darkness and chaos. Even if we win at that time, it will just be changed by Io. "
Shar said unexpectedly: "You have become a lot more open-minded."
The reason why Shadow Evil is called Evil is that this race is naturally not a kind camp. Back then, Shadow Evil screamed to exterminate all light, which was even more extreme than the Dark Goddess.
The poet said with emotion: "After such a long time, I have to look away, otherwise I will only be tortured forever. I have to say that Jaeger taught me a lot, and I am very grateful."
Shar said doubtfully: "You didn't come to me just to see an old friend, right?"
"Of course, you also heard the bells ringing in Talos. You should understand that the little lich has done another big thing. He kidnapped a god in a mortal body."
The poet's words hurt Shar's self-esteem, and he said angrily: "It's just borrowing the power of others. Mortals are only mortals after all."
"He can borrow such a powerful power when he is still a mortal. When he is promoted to a god, do you think he can borrow Io's power? Oh, he has already borrowed it, and you already understand the result. "
Shar said angrily: "Are you here just to mock me?"
"I'm here to remind you. You should understand the importance of this lich now. I'm not afraid to tell you that Yeager is very optimistic about him. This kid may succeed Kelanvor's position and become the new God of Death."
"How can this be?!"
Shar found it unbelievable. How powerful the god of death was, and Kelanvor had not made any big mistakes. How could he change someone casually?
"I can't disclose the specific reasons, but I want to remind you because of our past friendship. The priesthood of the God of Death will be handed over soon, and this boy is one of the popular candidates in Yeager's heart. You have dealt with him, and you know this The boy is very vindictive, but as long as you don't take the initiative to provoke him in the future, I believe he won't trouble you.
"Otherwise... think about what Kelanvor did to those demons?"
Shar certainly knew that Cranvor, the god of death, had spent a lot of time and energy fighting the demons of the abyss. This god of death projected his power into the abyss, and almost no demon could resist it. At that time, I don’t know how many demons with names were killed. Klanvor was killed, earning the new god of death the respect of all the gods.
Regardless of whether Kelanvor is smart or not, this power is real and not fake at all.
This is the power of the Death God's priesthood. Even a bug that inherits this priesthood can instantly become a powerful god.
Shar was unwilling to give in and couldn't help but ask: "What does Yeager like in him? I admit that he is the most cunning mortal I have ever seen, but this kind of character does not meet Yeager's standards."
The previous God of Death caused a lot of trouble because of his greedy and cunning character, so Jaeger had to clean up the mess, and then the God of Death was replaced and became the current Klanvor.
If this lich becomes the god of death, will there be any peace in this world?
"That's because you're not familiar with him, so you're biased against him. This kid looks cruel to gods, but he's still kind to his own people. This shows that he has his own standards in his heart and won't cross the boundaries easily. This That’s the most rare thing about him.”
The poet took out the Code of the Dead, touched the cover tenderly, and then said to Shar: "All members of the Dead Poets Society were carefully selected by Yeager. Each of them had the opportunity to inherit the priesthood of the God of Death. Unfortunately, most of them All have failed.”
Shar asked excitedly: "What are the requirements for inheriting the priesthood of Death? Does Yeager have to choose a successor from a mortal?"
Shar couldn't wait to tell Jaeger now that she was willing to accept all conditions. As long as the priesthood of Death was handed over to him, he would be willing to do anything.
The poet smiled and said: "It's very simple. Only by overcoming your own obsessions can you become a qualified god of death by surpassing your own desires. Shar, can you let go of your hatred for Selûne?"
Shar wanted to lie and say yes, but he knew he couldn't deceive Yeager.
"I can't let go of my hatred. Can the lich let go of his obsession with wealth?"
Shar was very unwilling to do so. To say that this lich was much more dominated by desire than him, this was a fact known to all the gods. As long as the lich was given enough gold, he could do anything. Are mortals qualified to become the God of Death?
Wouldn't it be possible to live again if you provide enough wealth?
The poet's answer was beyond Shar's expectation.
The vice president of the Mourning Poetry Society said seriously: "It is really possible. He had many opportunities to obtain huge wealth, such as annexing the entire Underdark, occupying the entire Kingdom of Rage, or draining all the alchemy resources of the Dwarf Kingdom... But every time he restrained this desire.
"He did not choose to swallow all the benefits in one gulp, but chose to cooperate and choose to go slow and steady. It sounds easy, but that is the obsession of the undead to place their souls. I don't know how he can stay sane. Although he has not completely surpassed his desires, Jaeger is optimistic about him. This lich is qualified to be one of the candidates. "
Shar was silent again, as if he was lost in thought.
After a long time, Shar stretched out his right hand and sent a ball of dark breath to the poet.
"Since Jaeger is optimistic about him, let me see if he can really transcend his own desires. This is the complete law of the dark magic network that I have mastered. You can bring it to the lich. "
The last time Amber Xiu asked Shar for advice, he only got a small amount of knowledge about the dark magic web, which could only be used to deduce the magic seal to solve the magic addiction disease, and it was still a long way from the real magic web.
But this time, Shar took out the complete dark magic web. Theoretically, as long as he learned it, Amber Xiu could build a new magic web and become the new god of magic.
The poet did not accept it, but said to Shar: "Are you playing such a big game? Once he can't help but absorb this knowledge, it means that the goddess of magic has completely mastered the dark magic web, and you will never have the chance to replace her. "
Shar snorted coldly.
"There was no way. In my current state, is it possible for me to challenge the goddess of magic? I put the "Karsas Ascension Spell" in it. I just want to see if this lich can resist the temptation of becoming the god of magic. "
Karsus's Ascension to the Goddess, a powerful magic that is forever banned.
Karsus used this powerful magic to replace the Goddess of Magic and take control of the entire magic network.
Finally, he succeeded, but also failed.
After seizing control of the magic network, it was only a moment before Karsus blew himself to pieces because he could not mobilize the power contained in the magic network, destroying the magic network along with it.
The first generation of the magic goddess fell because of this.
Shar gave Amber the complete version of "Karsus's Ascension to the Goddess". He wanted to know if this lich could withstand the temptation of becoming the god of magic in one step.
