At this time, probably seeing that Levi had finally finished the task at hand, Khalida ignored the battle that was still going on next to her and walked straight towards Levi and thanked him again.
After witnessing Levi's communication with many gods, even as a unique warrior queen, she was willing to put aside her pride.
But Levi would not be too proud of this. People were doing this more for Lilith and Sobek's sake than for his own, so he was also very humble.
After a brief communication, Levi roughly understood the ins and outs of the matter.
It turned out that Khalida heard the voice of the Serpent God in a daze, saying that he had awakened from a long sleep and had accumulated a lot of power, and might be resurrected again.
But a special place is needed to hold a special ceremony.
The Temple of Bones, located just south of the city of Lahmia, is a very suitable place.
This is actually very illogical, because God’s resurrection has never been so simple.
In the countless years of the past, many gods have died in battle, including among the elven pantheon.
But at present, except for a very limited number of people such as Bane, the God of Tyranny, there are not many successful examples.
And those who were resurrected, almost without exception, were once powerful divine beings, and were resurrected after replacing their own bloodline descendants.
If it were really that simple, the elven pantheon would just resurrect the God of Mazes directly. Why bother?
But because Khalida was once saved from the curse of vampires by the Serpent God, she has been extremely devout to the Serpent God since then.
Even though the other party later died in the war of gods, she did not give up her faith.
So Khalida ran over excitedly, ready to revive the Serpent God.
Yes, she really believed it.
Of course , she was not completely unprepared. At least she knew that the Bone Temple was once a holy place for the Lizardmen, and any outsiders were strictly prohibited from entering.
So she spent several days scouting, trying to find a loophole.
Then she was very surprised to find that, not knowing whether it was a change of guard or something, the lizardmen suddenly disappeared.
Naturally, she rushed in at the first opportunity, and was captured in one fell swoop by the Viper Queen who had been waiting for a long time with the help of the power of the magic circle.
It turned out that without realizing it, when she heard that voice, she had already fallen into the trap of the Viper Queen and Visharoon.
Her devotion to the Serpent God was well known, but she was taken advantage of by him.
As for the local lizardman guards, they had actually all been killed by the Viper Queen with the help of the power of the magic circle as sacrifices.
Levi nodded. It was pretty much what he had guessed. No matter how miserable Visharon was, he was still a god of magic.
He was so shameless in setting this trap for Khalida, and she really had no chance to resist.
She is the Warrior Queen. Because of her background, the thing she knows most about magic is perhaps sacrifice.
As for other aspects, don't count on it.
However, since Velsharon could do such a thing, it means that there is something in Khalida that he is also attracted to...
Thinking of this, Levi secretly sent a message to Alyssa through Monitor Yakong.
You both like playing with snakes, so I guess you have something in common, right?
At this time, Khalida also saw the Death Guards, and her eyes suddenly fixed.
"Is that the work of Nagash?"
Although her tone was questioning, she was clearly certain.
No wonder, unlike many Tomb Kings of later generations, she existed in the same era as Nagash. She even witnessed the birth of the vampire race herself, so naturally she knew more.
Levi nodded: "Yes, it is."
He didn't say much. The gods' guards of the Tomb Kings were either beast-shaped or had human bodies and beast heads. But if they were half-human and half-beast, that would be considered a blasphemy against the gods.
It was not clear what Khalida thought about the Scorpion Guards and the like, so he did not want to go into too much detail.
Unexpectedly, she was not unhappy at all, but even a little excited: "If we can create a scorpion, can we also create a half-human, half-snake?"
Levi immediately understood what he meant: "Do you want to?"
Kalida nodded and said, "Yes, the Serpent God once had special Netherworld Guards under his command. They were half-human, half-snake beings."
"I have been researching this before, but the information was lost in past wars, and there is no relevant inheritance."
"I originally learned military formations and archery, not how to make the gods' guards, so the experiment in Lahmia City has not been successful for many years."
Although Levi was very interested, he could only sigh with regret.
"Nagash may have recorded different manufacturing methods in different volumes of Nagash. At least the one I got does not have the snake-shaped Death Guard."
"Death Guard?" Khalida snorted. "He really wants to be a god, or the god of death."
Levi became slightly more interested: "Oh, did he have this idea at the beginning?"
Although what Nagash did was no big secret, his strong talent was also recognized by the gods.
But as for his real intentions, perhaps even few gods can truly understand them.
According to historical records, Nagash may have wanted to become the true king of kings at the beginning, but he did not come to the throne in a legitimate way. He ascended the throne by conspiracy and intrigue, and killed his brother.
In a world where gods and magic exist, don't expect this little trick to be covered up for long.
His emotional intelligence was also a bit low. He didn't know how to win people's hearts, and his rule was too brutal, which led to rebellions one after another. It wasn't long before he was successfully overthrown.
Probably realizing that his goal could not be achieved, he simply polluted the water source with evil magic, killing tens of millions of people in one go.
But after Levi read it, he always felt something was wrong.
Could it be that such a powerful and talented wizard killed so many people simply to vent his anger?
That's too despicable. He shouldn't be so superficial. He must have deeper considerations.
Khalida glanced at him and said, "Yes, Nagash is the most talented and possibly the most powerful wizard ever."
"But he is still a mortal after all, so he finally realized that mortals have their limits, but gods may not have the same limits, so he tried to become a god."
In fact, this is also a problem that many powerful mages are struggling with. When the strength reaches a certain level, it is no longer possible to continue to improve simply by killing enemies.
In other words, most indigenous wizards do not actually rely on killing.
They may go out and take part in some adventures when they are weaker, but when their strength reaches a certain level, they will turn to study various magics, and even conduct many experiments themselves.
But magic is dangerous. Every year, countless wizards become disabled or die due to failed experiments, or even worse, have their souls taken away by demons and other alien creatures.
Moreover, the lifespan of mortals is limited after all. It’s okay for long-lived races like elves, but ordinary humans only live to about a hundred years old.
Therefore, many mages will try every means to prolong their life in the later period, including but not limited to transforming themselves into necromancers or liches, etc. This is also one of the reasons why undead creatures appear in an endless stream in the main world.
As for the most ideal thing, that is of course to become a god.
However, compared to the countless mortal beings, there are only a few hundred gods in total.
Kalida then said with a hint of sarcasm: "Killing tens of millions of people at once is the most important step in his plan to become a god in one fell swoop. It's just that he thinks becoming a god is too simple."
After hearing this, Levi didn’t know what to say for a moment. Can one become the God of Death just by killing people?
If an ordinary person said this, he would definitely be considered crazy.
But when the people who do this are Nagash, and there are so many of them, it is hard to say.
But unless Nagash is resurrected, there is not much point in them discussing this here.
So Levi changed the subject again: "I want the Nine Volumes of Nagash in the hands of the Vampire Queen and the Silver Blood Army, but if there is any method of making a snake construct in it , I will give it all to you."
Khalida was also very straightforward: "Okay, I will lead the army to fight myself."
Having said that, she still looked at the Death Guards, obviously very interested in them.
Levi pretended to be silent for a moment and said, "Well, for now, I can only make them when I have the Nine Volumes of Nagash. If you need them, I can give you some of them, but I also hope to get some specialties from the city of Lahmia to strengthen the combat effectiveness of my troops."
He originally planned to use the Sphinx, and even other Death Guards, in exchange for Khalida's opportunity to send troops to the Silver Blood Army.
But now that he had saved her life, he would naturally not do that again, so he didn't even mention the Sphinx.
Rather than taking the initiative to propose it, it would be better for other generals in Lahmia City to report it to Khalida, which would only have a better effect.
Khalida readily agreed: "Of course, no problem, but Lahmia City only has Jackal-types and Graveyard Knights, not as many types as you have."
Levi was very surprised and said, "Isn't that right? The God-chosen hero named Ramses who sniped me before used the Tomb Scorpion, and there was more than one."
"Sniper you?"
"Yes, my subordinates bought the information about your trip from him, but he changed his mind for some unknown reason afterwards."
Khalida frowned immediately. Buy her information?
As expected, these God-chosen heroes are unreliable. They only pursue profits and have no loyalty at all at critical moments.
Then she thought of the ancient tomb scorpion, and she couldn't help but frown again.
"Indeed, none of my subordinates have it. It is very likely that he is secretly colluding with other Tomb Kings."
Although the Tomb Kings are a faction, they are extremely competitive among themselves.
Apart from the Immortal Emperor Settra, who conquered almost all the other Tomb Kings, and who, for the sake of peace, superficially submitted to them, the other Tomb Kings still frequently engaged in internal fighting, which sometimes inevitably affected her.
Even though she never intended to compete or fight with them for anything, she was ultimately unable to completely avoid this vortex.
But the Tomb Scorpion is also owned by many Tomb Kings and is very useful in desert terrain. For a moment, she was not sure which Tomb King had done it.
Thinking of this, Kalida immediately apologized and said, "I will give you a satisfactory answer."
Levi nodded. Of course he knew that there were no tomb scorpions in the city of Lahmia, but he was just unhappy with that guy.
Regardless of whether Martis was scheming or not, she clearly gave the money and the guy agreed at the time, and he even dared to chase her afterwards. This was his fault.
Although he obtained the Speedy Battle Flag, it almost delayed things here.
If she had been delayed a little longer, perhaps all of Kalida's blood would have been drained.
Now that I have this opportunity, of course I have to give him some eye drops.
And Khalida will figure this out soon, right?
Add to that the possibility of betrayal in secret, and that guy's days will be difficult in the future.
After some further communication, Levi and Khalida temporarily decided that the city of Lahmia would provide 300 pieces of materials and 50 jackal-type guards of the gods, in exchange for 100 Death Guards of any model from Levi.
At the same time, Lahmia City and Thorn Town conduct trade. The specialties of Lahmia City are various gems and elemental crystals, which will be very useful among humans, elves and other races.
Khalida will also build an embassy in Thorn Town, so Levi can use it to contact her if he wants to sell Death Guards or for other matters.
Levi suddenly remembered something: "By the way, the rat people of Resentment Peak, have you felt any changes recently?"
"Indeed, they have probably accumulated some strength. They have become more elite recently, and some mutated beasts have appeared among them."
Khalida didn't think this would be a big problem because the ratmen would explode every once in a while.
During this period, the city of Lahmia could often harvest organ jars of better quality, and she had long been accustomed to it.
Levi shook his head: "Not only that, this time they are no longer ordinary beasts, but creatures from the Corrupted Clan, and they also took out special dimensional stone weapons."
As he said this, he threw out a rifle and said, "This is one of them. It is said to be made by the Skryre clan."
After a quick inspection, Khalida became alert. This kind of weapon was of no use to her, but if there were more of them, it was entirely possible to assassinate some of her generals.
It looks like we can't stay here any longer. After dealing with the Silver Blood Army, let's go and kill all the ratmen on the Resentment Peak.
As for the organ jars and the like, those obtained from the ratmen were of the lowest quality and lowest grade among all races. She only reluctantly accepted them because of the large quantities.
Even if we give them up now, it won’t be a pity.
Moreover, her power is on the east side of the sea, and human pirates from many forces such as the Snake People, Inda and Nibon can also provide organ jars of better quality.
Hearing her say this, Levi also became a little interested.
For a long time, these forces in the East have had little presence.
It’s not because they are weak. In fact, the territories of these three forces are very vast and their total population is also very large.
The island nation of Nibon is not unified at present. It is internally divided into hundreds of factions of varying sizes, with countless large and small wars taking place every day.
In this situation, even the lowest-level militia, as long as they can survive multiple battles, can quickly transform into elite warriors.
At the same time, because it is an island country, most of them are good at naval battles and are a well-known pirate force second only to the dark elves, Norse barbarians, vampire pirates, etc.
It’s just that their gods aren’t very powerful. They claim to have eight million gods, which sounds very impressive, but in fact, ninety-nine percent of them are just monsters and demons, and they are of low and medium level.
For ordinary civilians who don't have any power, they are indeed very powerful.
But for someone with some strength, such as Levi now, he can kill most of them like killing chickens.
Among the remaining true gods, most of them are demigods, and they dare not even leave their lair, Takama-ga-hara.
Because with their weak strength, once they step out of their kingdom of God, there will be a bunch of powerful beings such as evil gods, demon lords, or even legendary heroes from the main world who will rush up and tear them apart.
Weakness is the original sin, and the same is true for God.
For the sake of the divinity that must exist in them, mortals may risk killing gods.
Even gods who tend to be lawful and good would probably not mind taking action.
Because among the Nebon gods, there are also many evil ones.
Needless to say, the snake people are not particularly weak just by virtue of their racial talents.
In comparison, the Kingdom of Inda may be weaker because although their troops are numerous, they seriously lack fighting spirit.
There is no way. Apart from the fact that there are many different classes within the race, which leads to a lack of unity in the army, the biggest reason lies in the gods they believe in.
They are Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Vajras and Arhats who do not advocate killing but instead hope to influence the enemies with words.
Well, their original intention was naturally good, and they have indeed succeeded. Inda is the second force besides the Zhendan Dynasty that has successfully tamed a part of the beastmen.
But in reality it seriously doesn't work. No matter how much you talk, can you still influence the devil who enjoys killing?
However, their army is still large in number, and under the influence of the gods, various monks emerge in an endless stream, plus a small number of naturalized beastmen, which can be said to support their military system.
But despite this, the impression these three forces leave on ordinary people is still not very good.
This is certainly not because they are really weak, but because they have a neighbor that is too powerful - the Zhendan Empire.
Under the dominance of Zhendan, the strength of these three who were often beaten would naturally appear very weak.
But when dealing with other forces, they still appear to be very fierce.
For example, the territories of Khalida and the southern lizardmen, Kuga, were frequently attacked by pirates from these forces.
Although it doesn't really pose a big threat to them with a legend in charge, it is indeed annoying.
After talking and getting a rough understanding of the situation, cheers came from the other side, indicating that the battle was completely over.
The system prompt popped up at the right time, and they won another epic victory.
Levi looked through the battle records. Since he only brought a small number of troops into the battlefield this time, and the enemy had thousands of undead, plus a legendary viper queen, it was natural for him to get this evaluation.
His campaign level was raised to level 12, and he chose to upgrade his offensive skills to advanced levels, which further enhanced the effect.
If it were someone else, they might be excited about this, but after witnessing legendary and even god-level powers many times, Levi's focus has gradually shifted.
Apart from a few military gods such as the Crimson Knight, and Sigmar who was promoted to god from the Emperor of Man, it seems that no one has ever heard of any god who is particularly good at commanding troops.
Because to them, ordinary troops, unless they have hundreds of giant dragons, probably don’t have much meaning.
We should also take a longer-term view!
Others like Alduin and Elegy have also been improved, but Levi still focuses on Cindy.
The new skill she got at level 11 wasn't very good, it was Disintegrate Weapon (Undead).
As the name suggests, it is a weapon enchanted by her that is aimed at the undead. If an undead is killed, there is a high chance that the opponent will be completely destroyed.
Like ordinary zombies, if they are not dealt with specially, vampires can just use some low-level magic to pull them up as skeleton soldiers.
But if the zombies were destroyed by Cindy's move, they would be completely dead.
But in fact, this trick is not very useful, because there are so many ways to deal with the undead.
But this time she successfully reached level 12 and gained a fairly useful spell.
Blade Barrier: A blade formed by a force field rotates rapidly, forming an immovable vertical barrier. Anyone who tries to pass through it will be damaged and it can resist ranged attacks.
Although its value is greatly reduced due to its inability to move, it is still quite practical if used to protect one's own ranged units.
At this time, Alyssa trotted along and handed the most important spoils to Levi. He took a casual look and found that in addition to some dark and evil magic and equipment, there were also some soul crystals.
Now he can save a lot of time collecting materials when making Death Guards.
But what is really valuable comes from the Viper Queen herself.
An epic longsword - Blood Kiss, and a bat transformation skill, both of which were used by the Viper Queen before.
In general, this amount of loot is actually very cheap for a legendary hero.
But there was no way, because the head was taken away by the big crocodile in the end? If it was killed by Levi and his men, there might be some other good things.
But he had nothing to blame. In that situation, Sobek would of course prioritize clearing out the miscellaneous soldiers in his eyes.
And it is a pity that they can only play their greatest role in the hands of vampires. Levi thought he could take some time to give them to Lucia.
Together with Alucard, and with the assistance and command of Lilith, she is trying to infiltrate the Lamia family from within, and ultimately overthrow the rule of the Vampire Queen and replace her.
At this critical moment, she must need these things very much, and this can be regarded as her investment.
Although his current relationship with Lucia is a little special, if they don't keep in touch, their feelings may gradually fade.
After signaling his subordinates to clean up the scene as quickly as possible and leave before the Lizardmen arrived, Levi saw that Khalida's eyes were following Alyssa.
He couldn't help but smile in his heart, thinking it was worth it that he called her over.
But on the surface he remained calm: "Queen Khalida, have you met Alyssa before?"
Khalida shook her head slightly: "No, I just feel that she may be able to inherit the power of the Serpent God."
Before she finished speaking, she had already opened her mouth and spit out two points of light, which she handed directly to Levi: "These are two points of divinity of the Serpent God. I'll give them to you."
Levi was a little surprised. He did want to gain some benefits from the other party through Alyssa, but he originally just wanted her to learn a few tricks from the other party.
He never expected that Khalida would be so generous!
Under normal circumstances, in each god’s own church, only one or two true leaders could be granted a little divinity.
If there are two points of divinity, then he is basically a person chosen by God, and his talent and strength are often obvious to all in the entire main world.
Just like Lilith's chosen one - Teclis, and Khalida who was chosen by the Serpent God.
But no matter how much the Serpent God values ​​her, how much divinity does she have?
Gods have the ability to condense godhood, divinity, divine power, etc., but Khalida is just a legend, and her divinity becomes less as it is used.
Levi thought that if it was just a favor of saving his life, there would be no need to give two points at once.
If you put yourself in other people's shoes, you will find that behind such treasures, there may often be very harsh conditions hidden.
Could it be that she suddenly wanted to change her mind?
So he immediately declined, saying, "This is too precious, and besides, haven't you already promised to send troops?"
Kalida waved her hand and said, "Even if today's incident hadn't happened, I would have sent troops. I have always suspected that the Silver Blood Army was a force formed by Neferata, and now I have just received confirmation from you."
"As for whether it's valuable or not, if I was killed by that poor little maid who was manipulated without knowing it, then all my divinity would be lost to her."
"So, these divinities were actually rescued by you. You don't need to worry too much about it."
Now that the other party has said this, Levi would be a fool if he continued to refuse.
So after sighing a little at the other party's generosity, he took it directly.
This time he could be sure that Khalida had really gained a lot of benefits from the Serpent God.
Since she was willing to give herself 2 points of divinity, it was natural that she could only keep more for herself.
After a quick inspection and confirming that this was the same as the one Lilith had given him before, both were ownerless divinities without any consciousness, he gave two of them to Alyssa to use.
Although divinity is not so easy to enjoy for mortals, Alyssa's current strength is also relatively weak.
But now that Kalida is here, if something unexpected really happens, she can’t just stand there and watch, right?
Alyssa, who never expected such good fortune to come to her, was so excited that she was almost speechless.
However, she still managed to remain calm, and only after she respectfully bowed to Levi and Khalida in turn did she actually choose to use it.
Then within a few seconds, her aura changed noticeably, and at the same time, a pair of rainbow-like energy wings emerged from behind her.
But then, her body began to tremble, and her little face became distorted, as if she couldn't bear it anymore.
Levi, who had already been prepared, naturally asked the priest to treat her as soon as possible and cast various auxiliary magic spells to enhance her.
Kalida was also a little surprised: "Is this the bloodline of the Heavenly Rainbow Feathered Serpent?"
As she spoke, she walked forward and began to assist Alyssa in digesting the divinity.
Although she was a warrior and knew almost no magic, the divinity of the Serpent God had been in her for more than a thousand years, and she had already figured out certain experiences and skills.
Almost at the same time she made the move, Alyssa's expression immediately improved a lot. Then she opened her eyes again and thanked Kalida happily.
Then he looked at Levi very excitedly: "Sir, I have lived up to your expectations!"
Behind her, rainbow-like wings were shining.
Although her original face was pretty, it looked somewhat gloomy due to her past experiences and the long period of raising cold-blooded snakes.
But now she looks radiant, brighter and more confident.
Levi immediately opened the system panel. In addition to the many common benefits of divinity, including 10 times the lifespan, full of energy, magic resistance and immunity to mind control, etc., Alyssa's biggest change lies in her profession and bloodline.
The divine power activated a certain kind of blood that already existed in her body but was extremely weak, and greatly enhanced its concentration.
This changed her race to human (Celestial Bloodline - Rainbow Quetzalcoatl) and her class to warlock.
At the same time, her attributes also underwent significant changes. Her intelligence was weakened, but on the contrary, her charm was greatly improved, directly becoming 14 points.
Excluding the Winged Serpent Aithorn-Olina, and people like Maltis, Sefa and Sonia whose attributes are still unknown, her charisma is currently the highest in the team.
To be honest, her original attributes were very mediocre. Levi just wanted to get information about the Snake Cult from her, and he accepted her because he thought she was smart.
But now with this adjustment, her potential has been greatly improved, because the biggest difference between a warlock and a mage is that they rely on charm rather than intelligence to cast spells.
As long as they keep tapping into the power hidden in their blood, they can gain many related abilities.
In addition to her original several poison-related skills being enhanced to a certain extent, she also gained several new abilities.
The first is to summon snake-type guards. She can create multiple immobile stand-type guards that attack by spitting poisonous energy.
The guard's attack power, attack range, and maximum number of guards that can exist at one time are based on her level and Charisma.
At first glance, it looks like a weakened version of Cindy's Psychic Hammer, but if there are enough of them, it might be quite effective.
Next are the abilities bestowed upon her by the blood of the celestial rainbow feathered serpent, the first of which is blessing and anti-evil magic circle. Basically all warlocks with celestial blood will gain these two abilities.
This is followed by the Heavenly Fire Rays, which are a special attack against evil creatures, and the Quetzalcoatl Wings, which allow her to fly or levitate for a short period of time.
After reading this information, Levi was also very satisfied. Now it seems that the enhancement she obtained is much stronger than Luna at the beginning.
Of course, in addition to the fact that she used more divinity, it was also because her original foundation was really too poor.
But no matter what, after she makes further progress, I can make her a real heroic unit, and then my side will immediately have another great general.
At the same time, on the coastline a hundred miles to the south, hundreds of Lizardmen had just repelled the invasion of the Nebon Pirates, who were five times their number, and were cleaning up the battlefield.
An exceptionally tall and strong lizardman was riding a super-giant Tyrannosaurus that was more than 20 meters long, overlooking the entire battlefield from above.
Although these enemies were easily defeated by them, his long experience told him that things might not be that simple.
At this moment, a spirit lizard priest riding a cold lizard and holding a staff seemed to have received some information suddenly.
He immediately jumped up from his mount and said, "Lord Kuga, the evil power at the Bone Temple has been purified for some reason, but we have also lost contact with the garrison there!"
Kuga immediately knew that perhaps the Bone Temple was the enemy’s real target!
He immediately drove the Tyrannosaurus Rex and ran in that direction first: "I leave this to you, I will go and check it out myself!"
"Hey, Lord Kuga, wait, bring your guards!"
"My Kuimok is my best personal guard!"
