Chapter 368 The Last Wish
After bidding farewell to the Fairy Queen, Alan returned to the Observatory Tower.
The Galaxy Guardians are still fighting against the Void Zerg, and new minions of the evil god come to reinforce them from time to time.
But overall, the pressure on the defenders was not as intense as the initial wave of attacks.
The maze barrier of the Observatory Tower has been completely repaired, and the magic power reserves have been replenished .
The attacking and defending sides entered into a war of attrition, and the situation seemed calm.
But Allen knew that the galaxy riot had not yet subsided, it had only temporarily entered a low ebb.
The ancient gods are gathering strength to launch a new wave of attacks, continuously consuming the defenses of the Holy Demon Ancestral Court.
This intermittently loose and tense rhythm of battle will become the daily routine for a long time to come.
According to the documents in the Observatory Tower Library, previous galactic riots lasted for two to three years at the least, and more than ten years at the most.
The hard days have just begun.
…
The leaders of the Holy Demon Ancestral Court took advantage of this period of respite and raced against time to implement the plan of deification.
In order to ensure the smooth completion of the deification ceremony, it is necessary to gather the power of at least nine Saint Demon Sect Masters.
There are only seven clan leaders in office now, and the most urgent task is to fill the vacancies.
The candidate for the sect leader must be a top talent.
There are three main screening criteria.
First, the cultivation level must be no lower than the late ninth level.
Secondly, those with divine or holy demonic bloodline will be given priority.
Third, those who perform outstandingly in the battle against the invasion of the evil god's minions will be given priority.
Half a year after the Galaxy Riot, the clan leaders announced the list of candidates.
There are a total of sixty-five candidates, half of whom have not yet awakened their "Holy Demon Bloodline".
Before entering the riverside hut to practice, you can choose the missing blood essence.
For example, Shiva already has the blood of the Gaiding Celestial Clan and only needs to receive an essence of the evil demon bloodline.
After careful selection, she chose the blood of Rakshasa.
Among all the candidates, Allen has the most types of fused bloodlines.
However, he had neither fused the blood of angels nor any kind of demonic blood.
This incident caused a lot of discussion in the Holy Demon Ancestral Court.
Some even suspected that Allen deliberately kept his distance from the Holy Demon Royal Family.
Such disputes were not settled until people later heard that Allen had accepted the blood essence given by Luo Tianhua.
Allen accepted the Holy Demon Blood from the Fairy Queen, seemingly making his position clear, willing to become a new member of the Holy Demon Royal Family.
There are sixty-five candidates for the clan leader, most of whom are supporting roles who "accompany the prince to study."
There are only seven people who are truly competitive:
Sylph, Vader, Doom, Shiva, Nora, Pamela, and Alan.
Among them, Sylph, Vader, and Doom have all reached the legendary level.
Shiva, Nora, Pamela and Allen are all in the late ninth level of cultivation.
These seven candidates either formed a team to successfully hunt down the evil gods, or simply got lucky and obtained fragments of divinity.
Sylph, Vader, Shiva and Pamela all have the divine power of wind.
If nothing unexpected happens, all four of them will choose to fuse the origin of the wind element and compete for the position of "Lord of the Wind".
Doom and Nora, who have obtained the divinity of death, will compete for the seat of "Lord of Death".
The starting points of the six candidates are not the same.
The three legendary warlocks can directly leave the riverside cottage and go deep into the blood galaxy to find the ancestral origin they need.
Whoever successfully integrates the ancestor's origin first will automatically be qualified to reincarnate as the corresponding sect master.
One origin, there is only one chairman position!
Other competitors, even if they are just one second late, will only regret it for the rest of their lives.
In this race, candidates in the late ninth stage are naturally at a disadvantage.
Taking into account that the evil gods may launch a new round of attacks at any time and time is pressing, the clan leaders made an exception and modified the permissions of the riverside hut.
Candidates who have not yet reached the legendary realm can also leave the cabin and go deep into the Blood Galaxy.
Practicing in the galaxy is more efficient.
One can even explore deep into the galaxy, search for and attempt to fuse the ancestor's origin before being promoted to the legendary rank.
Of course, this approach carries great risks.
The deeper you go into the bloodline galaxy, the greater the mental interference you will receive from the ancestral spirits.
If one does not have enough strength and forces himself to explore, he may end up being possessed by a demon.
The sect leaders also made these risks clear in advance and urged everyone to act within their capabilities.
Of all the candidates, Allen is the most special one.
His cultivation was only at the late ninth level, but he had successfully integrated the origin and divinity of the three ancestors, Leviathan, Behemoth and Titan.
The elemental divinity of the Ancestral Behemoth, including wind powers, is equivalent to being compatible with the wind divinity.
In his battle with the Moon Saint, Allen also absorbed the divinity of death.
In this way, he is eligible to compete for the seats of "Lord of Wind" and "Lord of Death".
People who don't know him well, like Vader and Doom, see him as one of their main rivals.
People who truly understand Allen, such as Shiva, know that he is the leader of the Leviathan, Behemoth and Titan tribes, and that his bloodline is the ancestor.
If he continues along the path of the "Taotie Warlock" that he created, he will one day achieve the status of the ancestor and reach the pinnacle of the warlock world. Why should he condescend to the position of the leader of the Holy Demon Ancestral Court?
"I am already the leader of the Leviathan, Behemoth, and Titan tribes. Why not take on the role of Saint Demon leader as well? The more capable you are, the more work you can do. "
Allen's answer did not satisfy Shiva.
She thought she knew Alan well.
This guy calls himself a "good man", but in fact he will not do anything without benefits .
For Allen, the responsibilities of succeeding the Holy Demon Sect leader far outweigh the benefits.
What's more, the reincarnation ritual of the Saint Demon Sect Master will come at the cost of losing fertility!
Even Shiva was unwilling to bear such a heavy price, let alone a playboy like Allen.
Even if Allen is willing to have no descendants, what will happen to the Panthers family he founded?
Kelly, Tanya, Angie, Julie... I'm afraid his countless lovers would not be able to accept it.
Suddenly, Shiva thought...even though he was reluctant to admit it, he was actually one of the traitor's lovers.
In the past, I was only concerned with enjoying the pleasure of having an affair and never seriously considered the issue of continuing the family line.
Is it too late to think about keeping a boy or a girl now?
The more Shiva thought about it, the more anxious he became. He really wanted to grab Alan and torture him to ask him what he was thinking.
Unfortunately, she was no longer able to defeat the traitor, and was too embarrassed to offer to give birth to his baby. She could only hide her worries in her heart, looking unhappy.
In fact, not only Shiva, Pamela also has the same concerns.
Compared to Shiva's reserve, Pamela seems bolder and takes the initiative to ask for what she wants.
On the evening of the day when the list of candidates for the clan leader was announced, Pamela broke into Allen's house and asked him to fulfill her last wish.
"What do you mean by 'last wish'? You are alive and well now. I don't see any signs of you dying."
Alan sat at the dining table, enjoying a sumptuous dinner and casually mocking the uninvited young lady opposite him.
"If you want to write a will in advance, I don't mind being your trustee. It would be even better if you could give me some of the inheritance."
"Fuck will!"
Pamela was furious and rushed over to choke him.
"I want to discuss a multi-billion dollar deal with you!"
"Hmm? Tell me in detail." Alan became interested.
Pamela relaxed her arms around his neck a little, pressed her hot cheek against his, and whispered in his ear.
"After I reincarnate as the Saint Demon Sect Master, I will lose the ability to be a mother."
"Before that, I want to leave an heir for myself and you..."
Alan did not immediately respond to Pamela's request.
Putting down the cutlery, he turned around and asked her, "Are you so confident that you can defeat other competitors and become the new 'Lord of the Wind'?"
"I am confident in everything I do!" Pamela said flatly.
"What if I asked you to give up?"
"Give up what?" Pamela was surprised. "Give up the competition for the Lord of Wind, or give up having a baby?"
"One of the two, it's up to you to choose." Alan said softly.
“Is it because of Shiva?”
There was a sour taste in Pamela's words.
"You want me to give up the competition in order to let her take the top position?"
"Of course not."
Alan grabbed her trembling hand and bent down to kiss it.
"I just want to figure out what you really want deep in your torn soul."
Pamela took a deep breath, as if trying to calm herself down, but suddenly she exploded with anger again.
"Who would understand what you are saying?!"
"What true self, what inner pursuit, I get a headache and get irritated when I think about it! Anyway, I just want to have a baby now!"
"You have a bad temper and a pig brain. You really can't calm down and think about long-term things."
Alan turned around, kissed the blonde girl's tearful blue eyes, and said to her helplessly:
"I won't bother you with the brain stuff, let's first study the issue of continuing the family line."
“That’s more like it!”
Pamela grinned and gave a choked smile.
The pale cheeks quickly regained color and turned red.
…
Even if he was sleeping in the arms of a beautiful woman, Alan would not let his guard down.
The transcendental realm and ultimate freedom remain activated at all times.
A trace of malicious soul fluctuations approached rapidly!
The moment I approached the door, time seemed to stand still.
Alan opened his eyes, gently broke free from the arms and legs that were wrapped around him, and sat up from the bed.
The girl's fluffy golden hair fell on his pillow.
After mumbling a few dissatisfied words in his sleep, he turned over and fell into a deep sleep.
Alan tucked her in, put on her pajamas, and walked out of the bedroom.
The moment he turned around and closed the door, he simultaneously released the "Silence Spell".
A barrier of silence enveloped the bedroom to prevent any noise in the living room from disturbing the sleeping beauty on the bed.
Alan sat down on a chair by the living room window, raised his hand and snapped his fingers, canceling the time-stop state at the ancestor level.
Not long after, a hazy figure slipped through the crack of the living room door and sneaked in silently.
"What happened just now?"
The telepathic communication from Holy Spirit Fengyue, whose face was blurred, could not conceal his inner surprise.
"It's not surprising that you noticed my arrival. What's strange is that you got out of the woman's bed in the blink of an eye, put on your clothes, and sat in the living room waiting for me. How did you do that?"
“Time is actually a relative concept, and everyone feels it differently.”
Alan poured himself a glass of water and felt at ease.
"What you experience in a moment may be a torment that feels like a year to others."
“What nonsense are you talking about?!” Feng Yue clenched his fist in anger, “I don’t know what trick you just performed, illusion or time magic, but it must be no less than demigod level, otherwise it would not be able to affect me!”
Alan smiled and neither admitted nor denied it.
"Sit down, old friend. I was planning to come look for you. Since you took the initiative to visit me, let's have a good talk."
Fengyue floated over and sat on the chair opposite him.
"Do you know why I came to see you?"
"Most likely he has bad intentions."
"How dare you say that!"
Fengyue became excited again.
"As a Holy Spirit, you ignored your own mission of holy war and killed Egaion, Argos, and Aignir on the battlefield. You also helped Luo Tianhua kill the Saint of the Moon Queen and betrayed your faith!"
"If you do not repent and continue to serve the Holy Demon Ancestor Court as a lackey, you will be punished one day. Your sinful soul will be hung on the Wall of Heretics and suffer endless torture."
Alan laughed at her fierce accusations and vicious curses.
"If the faith you keep talking about refers to overthrowing the rule of the corrupt and decadent warlock family over this world, then I dare say that I have not betrayed my faith. I have never done so in the past, and I will never do so in the future."
"It's just that the way I practice my faith is different from what you expect."
Feng Yue looked at him in confusion and spoke only after a long time.
"If you really have not betrayed the Holy Spirit Society, follow me back to the headquarters now and swear an oath in front of the ancient gods to prove your loyalty!"
"My insistence on my own beliefs does not mean I am converting to the ancient gods."
Alan raised his hand to interrupt Fengyue's angry rebuke and said slowly:
"My faith is very strong, but I have two questions about your faith."
"If you can help me answer my questions, I will go with you."
"If you can't answer this, I'm sorry, from now on, I will have no ties with the Holy Spirit."
Feng Yue barely suppressed his anger and signaled him to ask questions.
"You, the Holy Spirit Society, will degrade all those who do not believe in the Ancient Gods as heretics and unbelievers, and force their souls to suffer eternal torture."
“But the question is, if a baby dies at birth and has not had time to establish religious beliefs, can it be considered a non-believer?”
"Before the church of the ancient gods appeared, there were already countless intelligent beings in the world. They didn't have the opportunity to come into contact with the faith of the ancient gods during their lifetime. Are they considered pagans?"
"Will these two types of souls also be put on the Wall of Heretics?"
Fengyue opened her mouth, but didn't know how to answer.
Alan took a sip of water and continued:
"The current situation of the warlock world is indeed very bad, and the kingdom of God on earth that you are trying to establish does not seem to be so perfect either, so I plan to open up a new path..."
"Stop talking! Your thoughts are very dangerous!"
Feng Yue interrupted him hastily, as if she was afraid to hear him speak out blasphemous heresy and poison her pure faith.
"Alan! Listen to my advice. Overly inflated ambitions will only kill you!"
