Volume 3 Takeoff Chapter 307: The Suffering Day of the Lich God
A few seconds later, a lich with a dull silver crown on his head, wearing a purple robe covered with filth and living maggots, some kind of green flame flashing, his body shriveled and looking very miserable appeared in mid-air.
"Dalar Firecloak, I heard that you were deified again recently and changed your name to Illidan? But since you were just deified, it's probably not safe for you to show up now, right?"
Velsharoon seemed to be asking, but in fact he was threatening.
Because of the lack of divine power, Illidan is still a demigod. The one who appears here is his true body. If he is killed here, his priesthood, divinity, etc. may all be taken away by others.
Therefore, true gods usually hide their true bodies in the safest kingdom of God. When they go out, they use various incarnations.
A battle incarnation, a messenger incarnation, or simply descending upon one's most loyal believers when necessary.
The power of these incarnations is undoubtedly much weaker than their real bodies, but they are safer.
Of course, if the incarnation was killed, it would be a heavy loss for many lesser gods. They might not be able to accumulate enough power to create a new incarnation even after decades.
But despite this, Illidan was not afraid at all: "Velsharon, this is not something you should worry about. What you should do is to take care of your lackeys!"
The green light in Visharon's eyes grew brighter, and he was obviously a little angry.
It has been a long time since he had clung to the Mother of Magic's support, sowed discord among many gods, and gained many benefits by playing both sides. He has not been provoked so obviously.
What's more, the other party is just a demigod!
But in the end he managed to suppress his anger. Illidan himself was insignificant. If he wanted to, he could spend some energy to transform this powerless messenger incarnation into a combat incarnation, and there would be a great chance that he could kill the opponent.
But the elf gods behind the other party are really a huge trouble.
The elven gods, the Chinese dragon gods, and the dwarven gods are generally recognized as the three pantheons that should not be provoked, because they are not only extremely united towards the outside world, but also very vindictive and have a strong desire for revenge.
The thigh he was holding - the Mother of Magic - Mystra, was certainly not very afraid of the elven gods, but she definitely did not want to make enemies with the elven gods for no reason. She even had a good relationship with many of them.
More importantly, it is almost impossible for Mystra to offend the elven gods for him!
So even though he was extremely angry, he still explained: "This fragment of the godhead originally belonged to Dracula, but now Dracula has voluntarily given it up and is willing to give it to me."
He then looked down at Teclis from above, unabashedly releasing the pressure of a god: "So, elf, you took my things, and now you should give them back to me."
Even Tigris, who was naturally indifferent and unperturbed by fame or disgrace, almost laughed out of anger after hearing these words.
They had clearly planned this in advance and personally launched the attack to seize it from the old black dragon Blake. How come it has now become something Dracula is giving to you?
Dracula never touched any fragments of the godhead from beginning to end. What kind of bandit logic is this?
Imrik, who was also enduring the pressure from the gods, subconsciously clenched his teeth and held the Star Lance tightly in his hand.
Although he had heard that the Lich God was greedy and arrogant, and had made certain preparations in advance, when he really faced this moment, he still could not calm the anger in his heart!
Illidan could not stand it any more. He took a step forward and took over Velsharoon's pressure for Teclis. Then he swung the moon blade in his hand and said, "Velsharoon, are you provoking us, the elven gods?"
The shepherd god Pan, who had been silent at the side, now trembled and stood in front of Imrik.
Although he was afraid of Velsharoon, at this time, if he, as a demigod, did not do something, he would probably be looked down upon by the elven gods.
Even everything he had done for the elven gods before might be greatly discounted because it involved the most critical issues of stance and attitude.
Although his name was a shepherd, he really didn't want to spend his whole life just herding cattle and horses for his king of gods Zeus.
Visharon was immediately furious. If it were any other demigod, he would have started fighting long ago, but now he could only swallow his anger.
No, maybe you don’t have to endure it, because there are other targets here for you to vent your anger on!
"Paine, the shepherd god of the Greek pantheon? You, a piece of shit, dare to stand in front of me? Your entire pantheon is full of shit! Do you want to die?"
While cursing, Visharon began to mobilize power from the Kingdom of God and his original body. Almost in the blink of an eye, he successfully upgraded this messenger incarnation to a combat incarnation, and his strength increased several times.
Even if a fight really breaks out now, he is confident that he can easily defeat all enemies in front of him!
Even though he was pointed at and scolded rudely, the shepherd god - Pan dared not say anything. There was nothing he could do because he was too weak.
Even the strength of their entire Greek pantheon is very weak, and because the number of believers is too small, it has gradually been marginalized.
Not to mention that he is a shepherd god who has no status in the pantheon. Even the god of war - Ares, or the god of light - Apollo, are nothing in front of Velsharoon!
After letting out a sigh of relief, Vishalen turned to look at where Levi was and said, "And you little mouse over there, what are you eavesdropping on?"
As he spoke, two dark green lights broke through the air.
Most incarnations of gods, whether they are gods of war or gods of magic, can basically use 9th-level magic and cast 6th-level magic instantly.
Like Hoeth, the elves' god of wisdom, and some powerful gods, they can even cast 9th-level magic instantly. This is the gap between gods and mortals.
As the god of liches and necromancers, although Velsharoon's divine power is very weak at present, his attainments in magic are indeed extraordinary. Therefore, even his incarnation can directly and instantly cast some 7th-level magic that tends towards darkness or death.
For example, this “Finger of Death” in front of you!
Levi was hit on the spot without any chance to react, but then a force full of light and holiness emerged, and he was directly immune to the instant death effect of the Finger of Death. It was the blessing from the Golden Heaven - Mercuria!
But despite this, the power of death attached to the magic still knocked off nearly a hundred points of his health. If he hadn't been in the military, this additional damage alone would have been enough to kill him instantly.
Levi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and then was filled with anger. This Visharon is really a mad dog who bullies the weak and fears the strong.
He didn't dare to provoke the elven gods, so he started with himself, a young wizard who had just been promoted to the paragon level?
Then he quickly looked to the side, because he vaguely saw that Visharon had just used two fingers of death!
Then he heard Michaela's cry: "Little Red!"
When I turned around, I saw Michaela holding a fiery red egg in her hand, but the original Xiaohong had disappeared.
At the critical moment, her mount blocked the attack for it, but its luck was not as good as Levi's.
Even though it was a sub-adult phoenix, its physique and magic resistance were quite high, but it was still unable to be immune to the magic cast by the god and was killed instantly on the spot.
Fortunately, all phoenixes can automatically comprehend their racial talent - "Nirvana" after their strength reaches a certain level. At the cost of a significant decrease in strength, they can transform into phoenix eggs to save their lives.
Seeing that his two moves were ineffective, Visharon couldn't help but let out a "tsk" sound, feeling a little embarrassed.
As a god, he personally took action against two mortals, but the other party refused to wait for death?
And the phoenix is fine, but what about the weaker little mouse?
After taking a quick look, he realized that the other party was a celestial mystic who had been blessed by the Seventh Heaven Mountain. Wait, he seemed to have killed quite a few of his own believers?
But before he could speak again or make a move, Illidan was already furious: "Damn you Velsharoon, how dare you attack my people in front of me? Is this a declaration of war against us ?!"
Although Teclis and Imrik behind him did not speak, because they knew that when communicating between gods, they had to observe basic etiquette, their anger was already beyond words.
Especially Imrik, because Michaela is his adjutant!
But despite his anger, Illidan did not lose his mind. If he really had to go into a full-scale war with Velsharoon, he would undoubtedly die as he was only a demigod.
So he directly chose another way, which was to call for reinforcements!
As the light flickered, a girl shrouded in a faint mist and a girl wearing a short skirt that seemed to be woven by moonlight both appeared.
It was Lilith, the elven goddess of the moon, dreams, and innocence, and Sehanine Moonbow, the goddess of prophecy and illusions.
Seeing them appear, Visharon couldn't help but frown. He was not afraid of them. In fact, he was confident that even if all the gods and mortals present were added together, they would not be enough for him to fight.
Magic, death, and combat, the gods who possess these three major divine duties are theoretically several times stronger than other gods of the same level.
His priesthood includes necromancy, necromancers, liches, undead creatures, etc., which just happen to embody both magic and death, so he has this confidence.
What he was afraid of was the other party's identity.
Lilith is the daughter of Asuryan, the first God-King of the Elves, and Moonbow is the daughter of Corellon, the current God-King of the Elves. If you offend these two, it basically means you offend the entire elven pantheon.
At that time, not only will the elven gods stand up for them, but gods from other pantheons may also join in the fun.
After all, the elven pantheon is a typical kind pantheon that has existed for a very long time and has played a role in countless battles against demons, devils and other evils. Almost every elven god has a varying number of allies.
The gods who claim to be kind and just like to use group fighting tactics the most.
But before he could think clearly, whether he should just snatch the fragment of the godhead and leave, or whether both sides should make a concession and he could just ask for some compensation before leaving, he found that Lilith didn't waste any time talking to him.
She didn't even look at him, but immediately imitated Illidan's actions and called for reinforcements!
Visharon suddenly felt a little numb. Although he had heard about the cheating of the elven gods a long time ago, he really broadened his horizons today. Who would come this time?
Half a second later, along with an extremely strong smell of blood, an aura of madness, chaos, bloodiness and brutality spread out like waves, and a big man covered in blood-colored heavy armor, whose appearance could not be seen, appeared.
Lilith immediately came up to him and called him sweetly, "Uncle Kane~"
That’s right, the one who appeared this time was the powerful divine force of the elven pantheon, the god of war Cain, known as the “God of Bloody Hands” and the “Lord of Murder”!
"What's wrong, Lilith, my dear niece, which fool has provoked you?"
Then he glanced at Velsharon: "Oh? Could it be you, the waste?"
Although he is of chaotic evil alignment and is normally forbidden to be worshipped by high elves and humans, he prefers to take care of the dark elves who have split away.
But there is one thing that perhaps many people and gods do not know, that is, he is the one who dotes on Lilith the most, even more than her biological parents who have disappeared!
Visharen was so angry that his nose almost turned crooked. He had just called others trash, but things had changed. In just a few seconds, he was the one being scolded!
But he is certainly not a fool. Although he doesn't know why the lawful and good Lilith called out Cain so easily, he has indeed failed today, so he'd better not continue to embarrass himself here.
This Kane is a pure madman. He actually directly used the battle incarnation. Since he himself has a powerful divine power of 16th divine power, this battle incarnation theoretically also has 8th divine power.
You have to know that as a weak divine power, his original body is only at level 4 in divine status, and his incarnation is only at level 2. Even though the magic system has certain advantages over the combat system, it is totally insufficient to make up for such a huge gap.
Moreover, Kane is also well-known for his fighting ability, not to mention that the opponent is not alone now!
So he glared at the shepherd god Pan next to him again, and without saying a word, he thought about running away.
The shepherd god Paine suddenly felt bitter. I didn't say a word from beginning to end, so why are you thinking about me? Do you only pick on the weak?
But this look also strengthened his determination once again. The Greek pantheon was totally inadequate to protect him. If he wanted to avoid being threatened by Visharoon, he had to formally join the elven pantheon as soon as possible. Presumably, his heroic performance today would also add a lot of points, right?
Unfortunately, Visharon was unable to leave immediately, because Lilith said, "Visharon, you killed my believers!"
Yue Gong also immediately responded: "And my believers!"
Visharon was stunned for a moment. He had killed countless mortal creatures, but he should not have killed any elves today, right?
During this delay, a huge blood-red hand appeared out of nowhere and directly grasped Visharon in its palm.
"Vesharon, will you obediently offer your apology, or will I take it from your dead body?"
He could see that the Visharoon who appeared before them was an incarnation of battle, possessing a portion of divine power and divinity. If they were to defeat him, no matter how many hundreds or thousands of elves died, it would definitely be enough to compensate.
Visharoon's face changed instantly, and he felt insulted like never before. You know, Talos, the God of Storms who made him a god and wanted to devour him, had never treated him like this!
However, after trying to struggle secretly and failing, he finally couldn't help but say something cruel: "Kane, I am the servant of Azuth and the Mother of Magic, you can't do this to me!"
Kane said nonchalantly: "I don't care who you belong to. I only know that after I count to three, if you still don't pay the compensation, I will take it myself!"
Without waiting for the other party to respond, he counted quickly: "One, two..."
Vesharren was immediately furious: "Kane, you are going too far in deceiving God!"
The number was so fast, was it a sincere desire to make him pay? It was a desire to kill him!
"Hehe, I bullied you, what's wrong?"
Upon hearing this, Lilith, who was most familiar with Cain, immediately covered her mouth and chuckled, Yuegong couldn't help laughing, and others such as Illidan and Teclis were all a little dazed.
However, Imrik felt his blood boiling and he felt relieved. It was really so relieved.
It's a pity that Kane is in the chaotic evil camp, and he has already sworn an oath to the two goddesses Lilith and Moonbow, otherwise he really wants to just believe in them directly!
Levi and Michaela, who were filled with grief below, were also dumbfounded.
Is this really a god? Why does he look like an old rogue?
But I have to admit that it feels really good to have such a god backing you up.
No wonder the dark elves worship him so crazily and even frequently hold large-scale blood sacrifice ceremonies for him.
He gritted his teeth again and cursed in his heart countless times, but Visharon finally decided to give in a little. After all, he was just compensating the mortal with a little money.
After today, he secretly ordered his followers to slaughter a group of elves, and then he would get everything back!
"I'm sorry, I can't remember which elves I killed. How do you want compensation?"
Yue Gong immediately smiled slyly: "First, the little phoenix."
Velsharoon was stunned. "Ah? That phoenix is your believer? Aren't you planning to obtain the priesthood of the night elves? And isn't it still alive?"
Yue Gong insisted: "Yes, in addition to the night elves, I am also preparing to obtain the Phoenix priesthood. It is my first batch of believers."
But despite this, everyone knew that she was just talking nonsense.
There are not many phoenixes in the entire main world, not enough to support a priesthood.
There are some phoenixes in the Fire Element Plane, but those phoenixes are pure elemental creatures, and they are different from the phoenixes in the main world that can reproduce. They basically all believe in Kasusi, the God of Fire among the four elemental gods.
Of course, Visharon also knew this, but the situation was extremely unfavorable to him now, and he could only take out the money to save his life.
A fiery red crystal the size of a head, extremely round in appearance, and as crystal clear as jade floated out and flew directly towards Michaela.
"This is what I got after I killed a fire giant and burned the king of the singers. Not only can it recover, but it is also enough to advance to the seventh level."
Kane didn't comment, just looked at the two goddesses. Yue Gong nodded: "And compensation for him. You used the Finger of Death on him, which seriously hurt his body and soul."
Levi, who was pointed at, immediately started coughing and tried very hard to spit out some blood.
Although he had never expected that this compensation would involve him, he has now realized that the compensation demands of the elven gods were fake. They were digging a big hole for the other party until the other party could no longer tolerate it, and then start formal action.
Then he will naturally cooperate with all his strength!
Unfortunately, the attack of the Finger of Death would not cause any wounds on the body surface, and he really couldn't spit out any blood.
Looking at his pretentious attitude, Visharon secretly hated him, but he also knew that if he didn't pay a price today, he would not be able to leave smoothly.
Anyway, these things he took out are only useful for mortal things. It is enough for him to keep his combat incarnation and not lose his divinity and divine power.
In order to avoid Kane finding fault, he simply threw out a magic scroll: "Use it, you can directly learn the Finger of Death."
Then he turned to look at Kane: "Can you let me go now?"
