"That requires a major event to remind the entire world of the demon race's true nature, unite with us, and completely annihilate the aliens." Tiberius knelt on one knee. As the god of justice, he thought for a long time:
"But revealing the greatness of justice comes at a price. Will the other five majesties allow it?"
If not, would they push me to the forefront and remain silent? Tiberius, you have forgotten my teachings: to practice justice, you must first forget about being understood by the world.
"The rules of the trial were set by a great war. Now that we've reached our end, another great war is needed to establish a new order. I don't even care about empty reputation, let alone you."
This sentence was like a shot of adrenaline for Tiberius. He was no longer hesitant. Practicing justice requires blood. Your Majesty doesn't care about reputation, so what does he care about?
It's very simple. The old order has come to an end, and the despicable demons have taken advantage of it. If they can't beat you, they will join you. According to the principle of justice, there have been few brain-damaged demons causing trouble in thousands of years.
This upward step is blocked, and the strong who are unwilling to be buried by time will find another way and study immortality by any means necessary. And the best material is the immortal gods, right?
Two hundred years ago, one of his divine servants was captured by mortals and used as research material. This was unbelievable, and a more direct threat was raised:
Unable to obtain eternal life through trials, the strong will resort to any means necessary. In order to maintain the absolute hegemony of the gods, they have no choice but to borrow the heads of the remnants and, through another great war, establish a new order of peace that can last for ten thousand years.
"As you said, lasting peace must be forged with a short period of blood." The God of Peace also knelt on one knee, swept his fingertips in the air, and a map of the continent appeared.
Castles such as the Abyss Castle and the Lighthouse City were flashing with light. The Lord God swept his eyes over them, as if looking for where to ignite the conflict and start the war.
.......
Except for God, nothing can live forever.
[The authority of each major pantheon originates from the Lord God, and they must obey the reasonable orders of their respective Majesties]
Yuki stood in a cold and deserted palace, with his hands behind his back, reading the words on the giant pillar.
This is the core technology of the Protoss. In this dungeon, even epic IV level creatures will age and die, the only difference is the length of their lifespan.
Like humans, no matter how strong they are, they can only live to 200 years old. There are different types of demons, and the average age is about 500 years old.
"Has no one ever thought of unlocking the secret of immortality from other sources, such as by exploring the brains of the 'Gods' themselves?"
Yuki turned his head and looked at a man with short sky-blue hair. He was wearing golden armor and looked very handsome. There were jars of wine on the round table and he was lazily curled up in a recliner.
This temple does not have a single servant, only various weapons and mountains of armor.
"It's just as my father said, you outsiders are born to be rebellious." The young man sneered. He was Diaz's son, Isaac, who became a god twenty years ago.
Diaz sent him a letter, stating that Yuki was a trustworthy person.
Even if he becomes a god, Father Coach will always be Father Coach. Although he is not good at speaking, loves to drink, and makes his mother angry, he never makes mistakes when judging people.
Believe it or not, Yuki Ryougi said that at least he wouldn't get angry over such a trivial matter.
This was discussed before departure. Yuki was also a very good person. He didn't ask a million questions or try to find out secrets right away. He always used a step-by-step approach when trying to trick people.
He glanced at the piles of armor and flags, then at the wine jar in front of him, and asked casually, "Are you the god of gladiatorial combat or the god of wine?"
"Of course it's the god of gladiatorial combat. The fat god of wine is in the 'Civilization God System', and I am a subordinate of the 'Strife God System'." Isaac glared, and his temple was full of the atmosphere of war.
"Then why don't you join the Demon Hunters? Priesthood means authority, and the authority of a battle formation should be very useful."
"No, no, no. Wars must be justified. Those guys in the Sky God System are going crazy, so why should I follow them?" Isaac waved his hand listlessly, propping up his chin and staring blankly at the wine jar. "But after I refused to lead the team, no one invited me back. Tsk, what else can I do in such a boring place besides drinking?"
It seems that being a god is quite boring for you.
Yuki glanced at him and chatted with him as if he was just chatting about family matters, but he figured out a key setting.
There is a third force among the gods. They are neither born into the demon clan and are persecuted, nor do they want to go crazy like the sky gods. They are considered the silent majority.
If I were the God of the Sky, I would definitely mobilize the power of these gods. Is there any way to get them to join the war?
"Father is indeed wise. He saw at a glance that the threat to Abyssal Castle lies not with the sea demons or the dragons, but with the gods themselves. Sending you here was a brilliant move."
Isaac interrupted Yuuki's thoughts, causing the latter to roll his eyes again.
Damn, this is what I saw.
He was too lazy to argue, so he moved a chair and sat down, quite interested: "So you also found something wrong?"
"Nonsense, a fool can't become a god!"
"Then what do you think is wrong?" Yuki concentrated his attention. A god was much stronger than him in terms of status and information source.
"The Sky God System is going crazy, wantonly expanding its attack area."
"I know that. What's more, I need details. I need to know who is going crazy and why."
Yuki leaned forward and saw Isaac looking lost in thought, holding the wine jar in his hand and waiting in silence for several minutes.
"That's what you said."
"Uh, I don't know either."
Yuki's palm trembled and he almost slapped the other person in the face. You don't know that you still want a bubble teapot. It turns out that he and Diaz are biological father and son.
He shook his head, reorganized his thoughts, and knocked on the table: "Do you trust me?"
"I don't trust you for now, but my father asked you to investigate this matter, and I will obey your orders."
Obeying orders is ingrained in every Abyss Castle person, and it has nothing to do with trust.
"Well, I'll ask you questions and you'll answer them. You can remain silent on matters involving the secrets of the Gods."
"Okay, just ask."
Yuki took a sip of the milky wine. What he needed was the source of information; he didn't need this idiot to do the analysis for him.
"I heard you were one of the last to become a god before the Great Hunt?"
"Well, that happened 20 years ago. I passed the seven trials. There were only five people before me." Isaac puffed out his chest and was about to describe his epic story that made his blood boil when Yuki raised his hand to stop him.
He didn't bother to listen to this guy's bragging and asked directly: "When did the Great Hunt start?"
"About ten years ago."
ten years ago?
Yuki narrowed his eyes and grasped the crucial moment: "If I remember correctly, the God of the Ocean and the God of the Underworld also haven't delivered their oracles in ten years. Could it be the same for the God of Strife?"
"That's about right. However, I asked His Majesty Thorion about this matter. He said it was a unanimous decision of the Lord Gods and that he would carry it out." Isaac raised his head, thought for a moment, and then added, "Also, I've confirmed that His Majesty is indeed asleep. It's true."
One can only pray in the Abyss Castle, and whether or not the God of Discord responds is his business. However, Isaac is a direct servant of the God, and he can still sense the condition of his boss.
"That's a good excuse. You can't verify it at all." Yuki nodded. Ordinary gods couldn't go to the divine realm. He rubbed his cheek and summarized the information from Mobius:
"If I'm not mistaken, He should have given a convincing reason for the Great Hunt, such as the fact that the remnants of the demon clan will sooner or later bring disaster to the world, and He has no choice but to act as the executioner. But the more real reason is that the existing trial can no longer be carried out."
"This world constantly produces powerful individuals, like your father, some even more powerful than gods. However, only the gods can achieve immortality in this world. Trials used to provide them with a goal to strive for. But with the extinction of the great demons, the number of trial candidates has dwindled. They cannot achieve godhood, but they do not want to die. They will definitely seek other solutions, such as seeking a breakthrough from the gods themselves."
Yuki seemed to be talking to himself, and Isaac listened quietly, his mouth getting bigger and bigger, the wine jar tilted, and the wine wet his clothes.
This, this, this...
Is this person a monster?
He guessed right, but the reason why the Great Hunt was a top secret could not be heard by the gods who were of demon origin.
Why? If the trial can't go on, you have to target our fellow human beings. There are many powerful humans who have committed evil deeds. Why not use them as trial subjects?
Isaac had spent a lot of effort to find out this secret. How could he possibly have accessed it after only being here for two days?
"No, who told you that?" Isaac sat up straight, his laziness gone, his thick brows furrowed, and he looked murderous.
"No need to tell. The so-called secret is hidden in historical documents. Just look at the number of people who became gods every millennium, and then look at the motto of immortality in your temple, and you'll find it easily." Yuki drank indifferently, tapping his head with his fingers. "This is the most basic logical thinking. The core interests are related to the core contradictions. Any ruler, whether god or king, must resolve the conflicts of interest of the majority."
Isaac's face turned pale, and he finally understood why his father called Clown a friend in the message.
With exceptional intelligence, he could deduce clues from the smallest details. He couldn't help but change his tone to asking for advice: "Do you think this reason is reliable?"
"The logic is impeccable. The old order is coming to an end, either from top to bottom or bottom to top." Yuki took another sip of his wine and suddenly changed the subject: "But this still doesn't explain the strange behavior of the other five main gods. I believe that the God of the Sky bears all the blame for the world for the sake of justice, but why don't the other main gods reply after reading it?"
"This...perhaps the purest form of the Sky God System?"
Isaac explained that except for the sky pantheon, several other pantheons had demons or dragons who became gods. Someone like Moresa would definitely ask the God of the Underworld why, because she still had her dignity, so she read the message but did not reply.
But Yuki shook his head without even thinking about this reason. "Impossible! Praying to the Lord God isn't a public telephone. If they all made a unanimous decision, why wouldn't the God of Strife let you participate?"
Why, Your Majesty, don’t you answer my prayers and clear up my doubts?
Isaac came back to his senses, thought about it carefully, and then he didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Yuki was hinting to him that something was wrong with the six main gods themselves, but who could confirm this? Except for the ascension ceremony, no one could pass through that door.
Before Isaac could think deeply, Yuuki asked him about the second rule.
"The authority comes from the division among the six main gods?"
"Yes." This time the God of Fighting was firm, adding, "So we must obey the orders of our respective Majesties. Note that these are legitimate orders. We certainly can't be told to commit suicide."
Authority is the rules of the world, which means that the six main gods collected the rules through the great war and then distributed them to everyone?
"Are they so kind?"
"That's outrageous! Okay, let me be honest. Just the six of them can't rule the world. Authority must be distributed."
This answer is very reasonable. It explains why the Demon Hunters fight so bravely and why everyone wants to become a god through trials. It not only means immortality, but also represents the right to rule the world.
But Yuki still felt that there was something wrong here, but he couldn't tell what it was.
"Oh right, I remembered something. Recently, many people have been concentrating on becoming gods, but they are all from the sky god system."
"Is it strange?" Yuki raised his eyebrows.
"That's not surprising. Each main god rules for a thousand years, and most of the gods who become gods during that thousand-year period are from their own pantheon. But this time it's too pure, with not a single one from other pantheons." Isaac shook his head, and seeing Yuki's expression, he explained:
"Your Majesties have some remaining authority to bestow upon new gods. I estimate it's not much, which is why everyone is so anxious."
Yuki nodded. The power in this world was quite interesting. For example, Isaac was a god of strife, a god of war, in charge of gladiatorial combat. It made sense for the same priesthood to be given to other pantheons.
No matter how it is divided, the authority must be limited. Each person in the God Clan has his own job, so there must not be many left.
At first glance, it seems like a normal thing. There is nothing wrong with replenishing the direct lineage. However, if you reversely infer based on Yuki's conjecture, something is wrong.
Learn from a certain principal and use suppression to eliminate dissidents?
I was right. The sky god Thorion was up to something, and it would not be as simple as He said honestly.
Yuki actually breathed a sigh of relief. Only by identifying the enemy could he have an idea. This was not just wishful thinking, but a result of reverse reasoning based on the cause and effect of the "destruction mission".
He must stir up trouble in order to disrupt the existing order and to carry out his mission. The question is how big a mess he can make.
No one survives, no one survives. Such a terrifying dungeon name shouldn't be about a battle between gods with clear distinctions between the strong and the weak. Players have ten thousand ways to stand on the side of the winner.
"Have the gods of demon origin been persecuted?"
Isaac, unable to keep up with his thoughts, shook his head and said, "That's not the case, but there is surveillance and exclusion. I received news that the 'Shadow God' Morgaus seems to be contacting them and submitting a joint petition to His Majesty Thorion."
"Is this Morgaus very powerful?"
"Stronger than me, he is the Left Hand of God in the civilized pantheon, in charge of all shadows in the world."
That is a second-class god. Needless to say, Moresa is one of them.
He suddenly understood why Moresa changed her attitude. In their eyes, players were also a force that could be united, but as long as players had a choice, they would stand on the side of the strong.
"Does the Sky God System have any response?"
"I don't know about that. I don't think so. Gods are strictly forbidden from fighting each other. Anyone who does so will become a public enemy."
"Like the motto on the pillar?"
"Not really, it's more like a law."
That's right.
Yuki couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth. Isn't this deliberate indulgence? Even a fool knows that if this continues, the gods of alien origin will rebel.
You have already taken all the blame in this world, so what if you take one more? Why not take the initiative?
The two looked at each other, and Yuki saw the fear in Isaac's eyes. The latter was not a fool, and the words were on the tip of his tongue.
"Your Majesty, Thorion, is going to kill the alien gods as well!?"
"Yes, but the question is why not rule it out now? Doesn't He know that the demons across the continent have united? All they need is an excuse and a group of leaders to stir up a huge wave."
"This, this isn't right." Isaac felt his brain was in a mess. It was nothing to annihilate the demons, but why should he make it more difficult for himself?
Why not put out the fire when it starts, but wait until it spreads all over the land? Even if it is put out, how many people will be burned to death?
He even thought of Yuki's question. The gods were trying to get rid of the gods who came from the demon clan to make room for the newcomers.
"I will report to His Majesty Niels immediately! I must wake him up!"
"Don't go. If this is really a joint decision, you will die, and Abyss Castle and I will die too." Yuki held him back. After some analysis, he realized that he was not digging a hole for himself. He also knew that although the father and son seemed careless, they were actually very meticulous, otherwise how could they know the actions of the alien gods.
