"Am I dead?"

Alvin felt that his spirit was drifting away from him, and he seemed to be falling into a dark abyss.

When he came to his senses, he found himself standing in darkness.

He began to wake up gradually.

Looking around, there was the sea and I was standing barefoot on the beach.

"This is where?"

There is no sun or moon in the sky, only a handful of stars.

Under the faint starlight, the sea water appears blue-black.

There was no wind, no rain, no waves, and everything was silent.

"Huh, I thought you'd never be able to come here!"

A voice sounded in the sky, and it was impossible to tell whether it was male or female, old or young.

It is also impossible to tell where it came from.

"Who are you? Warden? Or Marx?"

"..."

"Speak! Where are you? Why don't you show up and meet me, hero? How can I make this voice travel a thousand miles?"

"..."

"If you don't show up, I'm going to start cursing! I C..."

"Shut up, idiot!"

The voice sounded again, no longer as calm as at the beginning, but with some anger.

"Haha, that's right. I wonder who you are, senior? Where is this place?"

"...This is the land of nothingness...and I am the God here!"

"Okay, so how do I get out?"

"You can't get out."

"how about you?"

"I can't get out either."

"puff......"

Alvin laughed out loud.

"why are you laughing?"

"Then you still claim to be God! Isn't this place just a cage, and aren't you just a bird in a cage?"

"..."

"Why aren't you talking again? Are you angry?"

"You are right, I am indeed sealed here."

"..."

Alvin suddenly stopped talking. He had a bad feeling.

"Why don't you talk anymore?"

"Are you Xal'atath?"

"???"

"is not it?"

"..."

"Hurry up and tell me, or I'll start scolding you again! I C..."

"Shut up! I'm Xal'atath!"

The voice seemed a little discouraged, perhaps because his pretense of mystery had been exposed.

"How did you know?"

"You said you were a sealed god. The only ancient gods sealed in this world are those ancient gods!"

Alvin smiled and said,

"I remember that the other ancient gods were sealed deep underground, but you were sealed in the dagger. And this dagger has always been with me. I'm not stupid, so of course I guessed it was you!"

"you know me?"

"That's about right. I've looked up information before. Xal'atath is the weakest of the Old Gods. Another theory is that it's a claw that fell from A'Shaarj. I don't know what it is exactly."

"The weakest?! Y'Shaarj's claws?"

Sarthas was so angry that he laughed.

"One day, I'm going to absorb all these bastards! And build an empire that only belongs to me!"

"Okay, okay, I wish you success. Can you let me out now?"

"Go out? I've been here for tens of thousands of years and I've never been out! It's so hard to get someone in here, so naturally I won't let you go!"

"But there's a Faceless Man out there! He's taken control of my girlfriend and beat me half to death. If I don't get out, I'm afraid he'll kill all my people. He even said he wants to absorb you!"

"Faceless? Outside? How is that possible?"

"Why did I lie to you!"

Alvin arrived in a hurry.

"He said that they all rely on devouring each other to increase their own strength. He felt that I was carrying the dagger that sealed you, so he said he wanted to absorb you."

"You're overestimating yourself! How dare a lowly Faceless One say he wants to absorb an Ancient God?"

"So I have to get out of here quickly! Otherwise, you'll become someone else's food!"

Alvin suddenly thought of something.

"Originally you were just a dagger handle, how come you suddenly grew a blade?"

"The dagger that sealed me broke for some reason!"

Xal'atath said angrily,

"The hilt fell into the hands of a Dark Iron dwarf, the blade into the hands of an orc, and my spirit was split in two. But a few days ago, the two parts of me were reunited, and my spirit was unified again! I believe you have already collected both the blade and the hilt!"

"Blade, orc?"

Alvin suddenly understood. "You mean the iron piece wrapped in cloth on Nekros' body? Is that your blade?"

"I see! No wonder the dagger became complete! It turns out I accidentally made you whole!"

"Hehe, that's right. However, my strength is still very weak. With the shattering of the dagger, most of my strength has been leaked. You need to help me recover more shadow energy so that I can return to my best condition!"

"Uh, but none of us can get out now. I'm afraid I'm going to die too. And then you'll be absorbed by that G8 face too!"

"It's not that there is no way..."

"See! I told you you had a solution, didn't you? Stop hiding it, or we'll all be doomed if you're any later. Hurry up and tell us!"

"Do you crave power?"

"No, I long for Naizi!"

"..."

"Then let everything be destroyed!"

"Just kidding, please continue."

Xal'atath seemed reluctant.

"I need to use up all the shadow energy in you and me to temporarily break free from the seal. I will briefly control your body, but with your current strength, I'm afraid it will only last for 10 minutes."

"no!"

Alvin shook his head like a rattle.

"why?"

"What if you lie to me?"

Alvin said cautiously,

"What if you take my body after you go out, my girlfriend becomes yours, my sister becomes yours, and you refuse to leave? What should I do then?"

"Am I such a person? I am an ancient god!!!"

"Aren't you that kind of person?"

"Well, I really am!"

Xal'atath smiled and said, "Then let's just chat here and wait for our demise!"

"..."

"That's not right. If using up all the shadow energy can send someone out, why can't it send me out?"

“You discovered the blind spot.”

Sarthas laughed.

"You are quite clever and interesting. I haven't been this happy in thousands of years."

"But think about it, if you go out there, are you sure you can defeat that G8-face?"

“…It seems not…”

"If you fail again, there's no hope at all. Why not just let me out? Of course, you can see my actions here. I'll solve the problem within 10 minutes!"

"That's...okay!"

"Okay, let's cast a spell together and inject all the shadow energy into this sea!"

As Xal'atath said, Alvin poured all the shadow energy into the sea in front of him.

Then, the changes began.

The originally calm sea suddenly began to shake violently, and the water that had submerged the feet quickly receded, revealing the flat seabed.

The sea water quickly gathered towards the center of the sea, and the water in the center of the sea gathered more and more, until it was finally lifted into the sky by a strange force.

The sea water rising into the air began to rotate violently, forming a spectacular waterspout that connected the sky and the earth.

Suddenly, the dark night sky seemed to be pierced by a big hole in the sea, and the sea water rushed out frantically into the crack in the sky!

The entire ocean disappeared in an instant, not even a drop of water was left!

The sky suddenly lit up, as if a projector was projecting the outside world onto the horizon.

"Xal'atath, act."
