Chapter 431: Making a Deal
"Leon, I want to make a deal with you."
Just when Leon was thinking about whether there would be any side effects if his entire family became gods, a voice suddenly appeared in his mind.
Kavala's voice.
Kavala, who had been silent for a long time, woke up again at this time.
In fact, this was not a sound, but Leon directly "heard" the thoughts generated by Kavala's soul. This was a communication between spirits. Both of them only needed to think and did not need to speak.
"It seems that you have woken up from Malbert's spell? What kind of deal are you going to make?"
Leon knew that with Malbert's magic power, he definitely couldn't let Kavala lose consciousness forever. It was unexpected that it took so long for him to recover.
"Let me go, I can help you deal with Eunomia..."
It seems that Kavala knows that Leon is facing the threat of the Goddess of Order.
"Ha... I don't care about Eunomia at all. She can't do anything to me. Why should I trade with you? Besides, Kavala, I know very well that if I let my guard down, you might take advantage of me. There's no need for me to take such a risk."
Li Ang was thinking.
"Humph, yes, you are about to become a god, and your elf wife is also about to become a god... Leon, do you think this is your reliance? Do you think that becoming a god will no longer threaten Eunomia? Think about it carefully, once you completely become a god, what will you encounter..."
Kavala's voice was somewhat sarcastic: "But do you know why you and your wife have the power of faith so quickly? It's Eunomia. She is helping you... She is helping you become a god . She did it on purpose!"
"Eunomea is helping me become a god? Why?"
Li Ang was stunned.
Kavala certainly can't fool people now - he is in a spirit state, and is talking to Leon's soul in the soul space. He can't lie now, and what he said just now were Kavala's true thoughts.
But why did she do this? Wasn't she planning to erase all traces of Li Ang?
"Ha...why? You're such a smart person, but you didn't even think of why?"
Kavala sneered: "Have you forgotten that the God of Creation once set a rule that no god is allowed to directly occupy the body of a human... and your body did not originally belong to you! You were just an ordinary person before, and a soul from another world, just like the abyss demon, and it was no problem for you to occupy someone else's body - but once you become a god, the god of the continent of Pande, you have violated this prohibition! You will be exiled to the void!"
hiss……
It seems to be true!
Kavala has done so many things, but he has never occupied anyone's body himself. He has always used Azi Dahaka just to avoid violating this iron rule...
But now, Leon's situation is indeed as Kavala said, and it is almost unavoidable...
In other words, what Eunomia meant by 'erasing everything about you' was her intention to have Leon exiled for violating the rules of the God of Creation!
No matter how powerful Leon's soul was, no matter how determined it was, once it was banished to the void, Eunomia could easily return the original Leon's soul to his body and change the world without anyone noticing.
This is indeed equivalent to erasing everything about Leon - he is still alive, and everything Leon has now is still there, but his soul has been replaced, and the replacement must be someone who has signed a soul contract...
"I think I understand... You are in my soul space. If I am exiled, you will be exiled along with my soul, right?"
Li Ang felt a little heavy in his heart, and he also understood why Kavala planned to cooperate with him.
"Yes. But you don't fully understand yet... Eunomia not only wants you to be exiled, she also wants your wife to become her messenger, the 'gatekeeper' of this world!"
Kavala sneered: "You were right before, I really don't understand love. But at least I know that your wife Amy and Wendyllfu are definitely willing to exchange everything they have for your survival and freedom. If your soul is exiled to the void, do you think they will "voluntarily" sign a contract with a certain god and use everything they have, including their souls, to save you..."
Of course...
Eunomia is persistent and has her own opinions. She will not tolerate any new gods being born on earth, so she is indeed likely to leave behind a 'gatekeeper' to prevent others from becoming gods.
Just like Erida left behind Anna as a messenger of God, but Anna gradually developed a split personality and became one of the three prophets.
Once Leon's soul is replaced, Wendy and Amy will most likely be fooled by Eunomia... and Amy is a believer of the Goddess of Order!
"So, Eunomia is deliberately pushing my whole family to gain faith? And intends to deceive Amy and Wendy ? How exactly does she do it?"
Li Ang became nervous, he didn't want his wife to become some kind of 'messenger of God'.
"I don't know either... I can sense her intention because the soul contract I made with her when I was the Chosen One was not erased. It's just that when I possessed Azi Dahaka's body, she could no longer control me. But I'm stuck in your soul space and can't get out. How can I know what specific method she used? But I can tell you that engraving the image on the coin is actually the way that Eunomia once used to gain faith..."
Kavala explained.
"Leon, what are you thinking about?"
Seeing that Li Ang had been silent, Wendy asked.
"Oh... I was wondering, why did you and Amy decide to engrave our portraits on the coins? Why did you engrave mine and Alina's together?"
Li Ang turned his head and looked at Wendy and asked.
Amy had planned to print the portraits of several people on the coins. At that time, Leon was in White Hart Castle, not in Sarlion City.
Of course, Leon also thought that Amy's plan was very good and suitable for his own plan, because at that time Leon himself also planned to use the "God of Wealth" to fight against God.
However, if Li Ang had made the whole plan himself, he might have engraved his portrait on all the coins...
"Eh? Didn't Amy tell you? We plan to let you and Alina get married during the harvest season next year... Well, this is what Amy said. The king has no right to choose his own marriage. Everything is for the purpose of making life better for everyone."
Wendy came over, put her arm around Leon, and took him downstairs.
"This... okay, I understand this decision. But this... oh, I see, Amy wants to elevate Alina's status so that the people of Bacchus won't be dissatisfied?"
Li Ang really understood Amy, he could understand Amy's thoughts, and he also felt that this method was very effective.
"Yeah, Amy is pretty amazing. She originally said it was difficult to solve, but after taking a nap she came up with this idea..."
Wendy said with admiration.
"Take a nap? Amy never takes a nap..."
Li Ang sighed deeply. It looked like Amy was probably affected by something, such as a dream.
This method probably came from Eunomia's suggestion.
The gods of the continent of Pendor are best at psychological suggestion...
Eunomia knew that the portrait on the coin would bring faith, and she deliberately induced Amy to do so!
Eunomia will only make Leon a god, and will also provide "help"!
But if no measures are taken, Amy may be deceived and controlled by Eunomia at any time. No matter how much faith she can gain in the future, she can only be a puppet of Eunomia.
As for Wendy... the power of faith will neutralize Wendy's magic-suppressing ability, causing her to lose her ability to protect herself. If nothing unexpected happens, Wendy will soon be affected.
"Leon, you should have figured it out. We should cooperate... Not only can I solve the problem of you being exiled after becoming a god, I also know how to deal with Eunomia."
Kavala brought up his deal again: "I've been thinking about these things for hundreds of years... Deal?"
…
A few months later, many statues appeared in the Changhe City Square.
There is the goddess of order, Eunomia, the goddess of justice, Astalia, the goddess of darkness, Erida, the god of shelter and harvest, Damia, the goddess of prosperity, Terra, the god of the North Watcher (the god of hunting) Ulvett, the mountain cat Vijovis of the Misty Mountains, the horse god Wata of D'Shar... there is even the god of war, Mars, who is widely believed in the continent of Amalar, and Indar, the 'sky god' of the Jatu people.
Anyway, for every god that is regarded as the main god by the people of all ethnic groups in this world, there is a statue of him in this square.
But these statues of gods are not big, and none of them have faces. They are surrounded by the outer circle of the square, and they look more like road signs...
Even more eye-catching are the sculptures of those people in the inner circle of the square.
There were many, many different kinds of people, but no statues of Leon or anyone close to him, but rather of the late heroes of Pendor.
The first king of Pendor, Kavala, was also among them. "Kavala Pendragon, 35 BC-48 BC, the founder of the Griffin Knights and the Kingdom of Pendor. He led the Knights in bloody battles, annihilated the abyss demons that were rampant on the continent of Pendor, and ended the war that had lasted for hundreds of years on the continent of Pendor. He was called the 'Supreme King' by people of all ethnic groups."
And Countess Valera - "From 77 to 142 of the Pendor calendar, she was the first female knight in the continent of Pendor. She fought for equal rights for women with men and eliminated bandits from the entire continent at that time. She was called the 'Queen of Eagle Claws'."
Another example is Baron John of Dungreve, the founder of the Knights of the Shining Cross. "From 84 to 157 of the Pendor calendar, he was a wandering warrior of Dungreve (Dungreve was the name of the city of Knowledge during the Pendor Kingdom period). He traveled to the continents of Barclay and Amarra, brought medical skills and medicines from all over the world back to the Pendor continent, and provided free treatment to all civilians. He dedicated his life to protecting doctors and saving lives. The Knights of the Shining Cross he founded saved countless lives on the Pendor continent. He was called 'Saint John' by the people at that time, and he was also granted the title of Baron as a civilian."
There are many more, such as Avadain, the first Elf King who brought the Noldor Elves to Pendor Continent to settle down, Sir Rodrick the Red, the founder of , and Emperor Marius who passed away a few months ago...
These people have one thing in common - their inscriptions do not record anything related to conquest. Even though many of them were invincible heroes, the pedestals of these statues do not describe their battle achievements with others, but instead boast about what they have done for the people.
For example, killing demons, curing diseases and saving lives, fighting crime, doing justice, and reforming government to benefit the people...
Moreover, they are all portrayed as they were in their youth and when they were making great achievements, rather than in their old age.
For example, Kavala is completely different from other Kavala sculptures. It is no longer the image of an old knight, but the image of a middle-aged king in his thirties wearing a crown - that is what Kavala looked like when he unified the continent of Pendor.
Countess Valera looks even younger, probably in her twenties - this is the age when she fought for women to have equal status with men . However, since Valera did not leave a portrait, no one knows what she looked like, so this sculpture was carved according to Amy's face...
Emperor Marius used the image of himself when he was 36 years old and had just initiated the reform - at that time Marius was always holding a book and looked more like a scholar.
But throughout the square, all the statues, whether they are gods or deceased heroes, all face a group statue in the center of the square.
That group statue represents people from various ethnic groups on the continent of Pendor.
Ordinary people.
There are many ethnic groups on this continent, and this group statue shows all of them dancing, singing and laughing together.
The costumes of the statues clearly show the race of each person, including the Noldor elves and the Misty Mountain people.
This is not a statue for a deity.
Because the base of the statue, which is placed in the center, has a huge line of words engraved on it: "Please remember those who have worked for the welfare of the people. They are the gods who are truly worthy of respect."
Li Ang did cooperate with Kavala, but Kavala has not left yet.
Malbert didn't leave either.
But they were indeed no longer in Leon's soul space, but in a statue.
They are about to destroy the Code of Eunomia, which is the ring of the Supreme King.
This is Kavala's way of dealing with Eunomia, simple and crude, but effective. Destroying the code can completely sever Eunomia's connection with the entire world, which has already been demonstrated in most gods.
The only exception is Astalia, but Kavala said that it was because of the existence of the Paladin Roland - Roland himself was equivalent to the Code of Justice, so he was able to call back Alaric whose soul was sucked away by the abyss.
The ring was made by Kavala, and he could clearly feel the exact location of the ring.
It is true that people cannot dive into waters several hundred meters deep, but if you throw a statue connected to a rope into the water, then it doesn’t matter…
As for the griffin, Malbert happened to be able to deal with it...
Malbert's soul spell can definitely affect the griffin, and Malbert is willing to cooperate - as long as he cooperates, Kavala will cancel his soul contract and still guarantee his immortality.
Kavala will make Malbert the new gatekeeper of the abyss - in fact, Kavala does not want the abyss demons to run out.
