Volume 4 Chapter 578 The goddess comes to be a lackey
The next moment, the system prompt also sounded.
"The Lord of Jackals, Set, worked with the Dark Serpent, Apep, to successfully kill the original body of Osiris, the God of the Dead and Agriculture."
"Osiris's kingdom completely collapsed. Set successfully seized Osiris's priesthood - death (part), priesthood - the dead (part), and Set successfully seized most of Osiris's godhood fragments, divine power, divinity, etc."
"The rest of Osiris's priesthood and fragments of his godhood are currently missing."
"Set declared himself the new king of the Egyptian pantheon. However, due to Set's brother-killing and rebellion, the river lady Isis and the god of war Anhor strongly protested against this, and the Egyptian pantheon began to fall into civil strife."
Levi immediately resigned from the Lords of Heaven and went directly to the temple of Seleket.
On the way, he kept thinking about relevant information.
Apep, the Dark Serpent, is the brother and mortal enemy of the ancient Egyptian god Ra. He is a symbol of darkness and evil and the original snake god of the Egyptian pantheon. However, according to legend, it was destroyed by Ra long ago.
Levi is not sure for the time being whether Set secretly resurrected it or refined the other's corpse into an incarnation.
Or maybe Set simply borrowed the name of the Dark Serpent, but he was actually the one who did the action.
Levi is more inclined to the latter two possibilities. After all, Set has been the snake god for quite some time under the name of Zehir. There is really no need for him to create a new snake god to compete with him.
But no matter what, after meeting Seleket later, most of his doubts should be resolved.
Because although she has quietly fled to the elven pantheon, she still has friends in the Egyptian pantheon.
By continuously using teleportation spells, Levi arrived at the temple of Seleket in no time.
At this time, priests, temple warriors and the like had already been driven away. In addition to Seleket, another woman, no, the incarnation of the goddess, was also waiting for Levi.
After thinking about it, Levi did not take Elegy and the others with him, but asked them to wait at a later location. Of course, it was not because he had anything to hide from them, but it was just a way for him to show respect to the two goddesses.
What's more, at such a short distance, Elegy and the others could still hear and see it clearly.
After just a quick look, Levi's first feeling was, where did this country girl come from?
You are quite pretty and have a good figure, but you came out with disheveled hair and two pieces of rags hanging from your body. Are you trying to make yourself look ugly on purpose?
Seleket laughed and said, "Levi, this is my friend, the moon goddess - Hathor."
As she spoke, Seleket seemed somewhat smug. Originally, the two of them shared the same suffering in the Egyptian pantheon, but thanks to Levi's help, she was now completely different from before, and everything was getting better. This was also the reason why she had the confidence to invite the other party.
Hathor also smiled: "Hello, Levi, nice to meet you, I am Hathor."
But even with a smile, she couldn't hide the fatigue between her brows, which was not common for an incarnation of a goddess.
But Levi could roughly understand it, because this moon goddess with weak divine power was also known as humble and people-friendly, but because she was too kind to mortals, she was despised and excluded by gods such as Osiris.
During this meeting, it was indeed evident that she was not just an ordinary person. Although she was a goddess, she was so polite to Levi, who was still a mortal.
But Levi greeted the other party very warmly and respectfully. This time, he had to thank Hathor for tipping off.
Originally, Hathor was a submissive goddess in the Egyptian pantheon, with little status and presence, but she was a god after all, and at certain critical moments, she had the courage to fight hard.
For example, this time, she has been keeping in close contact with Seleket and passed on relevant information as soon as possible.
After some simple pleasantries, Hathor began to tell Levi the whole story.
It turned out that Set held another banquet today, saying that he had prepared a coffin as a gift for Osiris, which Set called the Ennead Gods' Glory Soul Coffin.
The Egyptian pantheon is very fond of things like pyramids, coffins, and mummies, so many gods would make coffins for themselves as special beds.
The Ennead is a general term for a series of gods, including Osiris, Set, Isis, Tefnut, and even the disappeared Ra. They are all part of the Ennead. It sounds like this coffin was made by them together.
Osiris, who was already very happy about Set's invitation, became even more excited after seeing the coffin. He took the initiative to lie down in the coffin, as if ready to try the feeling.
Then Set immediately closed the coffin lid, and bursts of snake-like hissing sounds were immediately heard from inside, followed by Osiris' screams.
At the same time, strange changes also occurred in Osiris' kingdom. When other gods arrived together, Set had reopened the coffin, but Osiris's body and poisonous snakes had disappeared without a trace. Osiris' kingdom began to collapse on a large scale, which proved that he was really killed by Set.
This sounds incredible, because under normal circumstances, even if the original body was killed, as long as the incarnation still existed, Osiris would still have a chance .
Judging from the result now, either there is something special about the coffin, or there is something wrong with the poisonous snake inside.
After seeing the collapse of Osiris' kingdom, his wife, the river lady Isis, was shocked.
After Nephthys gave birth to the son of God to Osiris, she never showed up again, and no one knows what happened to her now.
The only thing we know now is the name of the Son of God - Anubis.
As for the other gods, they didn't know what to do for a moment.
So Set took the opportunity to announce that he would be crowned king. Of course, the god of war, Anhor and other gods refused to agree, so they started arguing, and Set revealed the reason why he took action.
All the reasons are due to the Son of God who was born a few days ago.
As soon as he is born, he directly possesses the 5th level of godhood and has three priesthoods: guide of the dead, guardian of the dead and graves, and embalmer, a total of three priesthoods.
And he also possesses corresponding wisdom, etc., so it can be said that he can immediately become a good fighting force, and there will be considerable development in the future.
Several of his priesthoods are useful to the Tomb Kings, especially that of the Embalmer, which is crucial for mummification.
Everything sounds good, but the problem is that it is too good.
The birth of the Son of God requires the energy of both parents, but Seth did not feel that he had put in much energy.
At the same time, Set did not have any priesthood related to death. His wife, Nephthys, did have a priesthood as the caretaker of the dead, but she herself only had a 7th-level godhood. It was impossible for her to give birth to a son of God with a 5th-level godhood and still be lively and energetic.
But Osiris was obviously a little weaker. In addition, Nephthys, who was from the chaotic good camp, had always been dissatisfied with Set, but was very fond of Osiris, the king of gods. It was actually very obvious whose son this son of God was.
Osiris cheated Set with a huge green hat.
After Set finished speaking, the Lord of Magic - Thoth, the God of Medicine - Imhope and others basically remained neutral.
They are not interested in the throne of God-King, and with their divine office, no matter who finally ascends the throne, it is obviously impossible for them to be treated unfairly, so they do not particularly care.
Set is cruel and evil, but is Osiris, who is on the good side, really much better than his brother?
Why did Sobek betray? Wasn't it because Osiris forced him to do so?
After all, Osiris never had much respect for weaker gods who had no blood connection with him, and his kindness depended on the situation.
Osiris and Set's mother, the sky goddess Nut, and grandmother Tefnut were all silent for a moment.
Because they are all vulnerable, they have already lost one child and it is impossible for them to harm another one, and they simply do not have the ability to do so.
Set was originally a medium-level divine power of level 12. After killing Osiris and seizing most of his power, he could easily reach the next level with a little consolidation.
Others, such as the scarab god Khepri and the dancing goddess Bastet, have very low strength and status, and have long been accustomed to not participating in any major events in the pantheon.
Because in the past, they had suffered from the struggle between the two brothers Osiris and Set, and no matter who won in the end, they were neither a god nor a god.
This matter is a bit special, but it doesn’t matter. They will choose whoever wins.
Of course, no God really cares about their opinions.
So there is only one person that Set really wants to deal with, and that is Anhor, the god of war, physique, thunder, rain and storms.
Even though Anho's godhood level is only 7, which is very different from Set, he has a large number of priesthoods and they are all very strong. He also has rich combat experience . If a war really breaks out, it will definitely not be ended in a short time.
Moreover, there is only one god of war in the Egyptian pantheon. Whether Anhor is killed in the end or chooses to leave the pantheon after being defeated, it is obviously not what Set and the gods want to see.
War, magic and death. If any pantheon does not have these three major priesthoods, or the relevant gods are not powerful enough, they are obviously not perfect.
The elven pantheon with more than thirty gods is very powerful, but because the goddess of death has been out of contact for more than a thousand years, Lilith has been planning to create a new god of death.
But Set had just ascended the throne of the King of Gods, and this was the first time he faced such a provocation. He had to give the strongest response, so the two sides had already gone to war.
Levi carefully sorted out the known information, and it was roughly the same as he expected, but there were still some problems with Osiris's body.
Disappearing doesn’t mean it’s actually destroyed. It could also be transferred away by space magic.
After thinking for a while, Levi looked at Hathor: "Thank you, goddess. What do you think of the next step?"
Hathor glanced at Seleket beside her, and when she saw her nod, she resolutely said, "I want to join the elven pantheon with her. No, to be more precise, I want to join you!"
For the first time, Seleket confessed to Levi: "Yes, Levi, I saw the light of Ra in you, even stronger. This is the real reason why I joined the elven pantheon!"
She used to be a scorpion in the main world, but just because she helped "Ra", she ascended to heaven from a mortal to a god.
The first moment she saw Levi, her intuition told her that the same opportunity had come again, so she took the subsequent series of actions.
As for Hathor, firstly, she had no opinion of her own, and secondly, she made this decision because of her trust in Seleket. Finally, she could not stand the Egyptian pantheon, so she finally made such a decision.
Of course, she is not completely without her own ideas. If she clings to Lilith, she will be equally insignificant. The Moon Bow Goddess has some overlap with her duties, and is far superior to her in all aspects.
But if she chooses to follow Levi, even if it is only because she was the first one to come to him, Levi will definitely not treat her too badly in the future.
In the words of Zhendan, this is like spending a fortune on horse bones!
"Ah?" Levi never expected that he would get such an answer.
How could he be so worthy of the attention of the two goddesses before he even ascended to godhood?
However, if the plan succeeds, he may really be able to help the other party take off, because the two of them are at the bottom among the gods, and they can benefit greatly from just giving them some benefits.
For the weakest gods, a thousand devout believers are enough to maintain their existence.
On the continent of Lustria, Seleket has just developed a few thousand skinks as believers, and her power has begun to grow very slowly.
After calming down a little, Levi also smiled and stretched out his hand: "Okay, as long as the two goddesses don't let me down, I will definitely not let you down!"
Seleket stretched out his hand without hesitation: "Of course, but Levi, I have a request, from now on, you have to call me by my name!"
Then Hathor also stretched out her hand: "Me too."
After the three hands were closely connected, they looked at each other and couldn't help but smile sincerely.
However, the two goddesses are unable to sign a formal contract with Levi now, because Levi is not a god. Even if the contract is signed, they can spend a certain cost to tear it up. But in fact, they have indeed begun to regard themselves as Levi's younger sisters.
After roughly determining the identities of both parties and confirming that Hathor had moved her real body as soon as Osiris died, Levi breathed a sigh of relief.
If it had been a few days ago, after what happened with Sobek and Serekhet, Hathor's actions might have been immediately noticed by Osiris.
But now Osiris is dead, and Set has to fight against the god of war Anhor while preparing to ascend the throne as king, so naturally he cannot take care of Hathor.
Levi also made a promise immediately that he would try his best to obtain some knowledge about the moon from Yuegong and give it to Hathor.
Then Levi began to think about other things: "Seleket, how is your contact with the servant of Osiris?"
"Thanks to Hathor, we are making good . Several gods have agreed to take us to the underworld."
Every Egyptian god has his own divine servants, who usually act as messengers and guards of the gods, and therefore possess certain secrets belonging to the gods.
When the gods are still there, they are of course loyal, but when the gods are gone, they are like dogs that have lost their homes in the true sense of the word.
At this time, when Seleket tried to contact the other party again, he immediately succeeded, because the servants of God are like vines and must rely on God to exist. This is an irreversible rule engraved in their bodies and souls.
As for going to the underworld, it was Levi's idea, because in the myths and legends of the real world, Set dismembered Osiris and threw him into the wilderness of the underworld.
The system just prompted that the rest of Osiris's priesthood and fragments of his godhood, etc., are temporarily missing, so Levi wanted to go and see if he could get some bargains.
Rather than aimlessly searching for possible corpses of death gods in the astral world, it would undoubtedly be much more convenient and safer to go to the underworld and wait for them.
Osiris also has a simple office in the underworld. As the judge of the dead, he will judge the sins of mortals there and decide whether they should reincarnate, survive as a mummification, or simply be destroyed.
Since that place is not his kingdom of God, it will not be destroyed with the fall of Osiris. With his god servant as an insider, maybe he can get some good things.
But Levi was somewhat surprised. Hathor's duties included the moon, mother, motherhood, and fertility. How could she help in this matter? Those gods were not born naturally.
However, if she were to arrive at the elven pantheon, she would have a chance to perform, because the current fertility goddess of the elves is Aisha, the mother of all things. Although she has not fallen, she really has not been of much help to the fertility of the elves.
This is also one of the reasons why the private lives of elves are relatively chaotic. It is the tacit approval and even promotion of the gods and lords, who all want more elves.
As for who the child's father is, that is an ethical issue that mortals should be concerned about, not something the gods need to worry about.
Hathor said a little embarrassedly: "I have a pretty good relationship with Bastet, so I got some knowledge about dance and love from her."
The implication is that she conquered the other person with her charm? Then she would be embarrassed.
There is nothing shameful about this behavior itself, but for a goddess to seduce some gods' servants is somewhat cheap.
But Levi didn't say much. Hathor was a goddess, so of course she had her own values and judgments.
What's more, although she has nominally become his lackey, based on the gap in strength between the two sides, Levi can't really treat her in a condescending manner.
So Levi just reminded Hathor a little: "I heard that she has always been very close to the goddess of night, and recently she has been bewitched by Slaanesh. This is probably not a good thing. Zeus of the Greek pantheon was unable to resist the power of Slaanesh, which led to the near annihilation of the entire pantheon."
As soon as the words came out, the two goddesses changed color: "What?"
Of course, they had heard about the sudden disappearance of so many gods in the Greek pantheon, but they never expected that it was because of this reason.
Can even gods be corrupted? Hathor shuddered at the thought, and then became a little worried: "Then Bastet..."
Levi waved his hand: "Don't worry about her, her partner will take good care of her. Besides, even if you remind her, she won't listen, right?"
Speaking of which, An He is really a good male god. Bast has been having so much fun outside, and I don’t know how many men she has tasted. Although An He is very angry and quarrels with her every day, he never chooses to break up.
Hathor agreed. Bastet was an unrestrained cat, even very rebellious. The more others tried to stop her from doing something, the more she wanted to do it.
Everyone knows how terrifying the goddess of night, Shar, is, but Bast still took the initiative to throw herself at her, like a butterfly flying into a net.
Even if Anhe hadn't quarreled with Bast all day long, she might not have sought pleasure so frequently.
"Okay, Hathor, don't worry about her. If she is really threatened, perhaps it won't just be An He who will take action. After all, she has had relationships with many male gods, although they were usually very short-lived..."
Although Levi could not compliment Buster's character, he had to admit that she was indeed very charming. Perhaps at the critical moment, some people would be tempted by the temptation and try to rekindle the old days with Buster, and would be willing to stand up for her.
"Okay, I understand." Hathor nodded very seriously.
Looking at the other person's appearance, Levi suddenly seemed to understand why Hathor had such a status in the Egyptian pantheon. It was because she was dressed like a country girl and had such a personality that she looked easy to bully!
But if she follows me in the future, I will definitely ask her to change her clothes.
As a god, he must maintain a certain distance and height from mortals. If he doesn't even have the most basic reverence, how can he have faith?
After confirming some more details, Levi also communicated with Elegy and the others, and began to use the knowledge he had recently acquired to disguise them so that they would present the energy characteristics of the undead. Otherwise, once they went to the underworld, they would attract too much attention.
Hathor reached out and opened a portal to the underworld.
Although she couldn't understand where Levi got his confidence from, as Levi said, even if it was just something Osiris left behind in the underworld, it would be worth their trip!
A few seconds later, Levi and the others arrived at a land of desolation and destruction.
The sky was dark red, and the surroundings were dominated by gray and black, followed by a desolate plain and steep mountains. The whole world exuded a sense of decay, decline, and death.
But that doesn't mean there is no movement here at all. For example, in the sight of Levi and his companions, there are at least thousands of different kinds of low- and mid-level undead wandering aimlessly.
Zombies, skeletons, and ghosts are the most common, but what is slightly different from the main world is that necromancers are accustomed to driving humanoid creatures, while the undead here can come from any race.
Then there are some miscellaneous stuff like Flying Head Barbarian, Ghost Clothes, Tomb Spots, Death Gate, Leather Kite, Tomb Golem, and Corpse Resistant.
Even in the southeast, there was a pile of seemingly scattered bones, but when a zombie wandered near it, those bones quickly condensed into a big mouth and swallowed the zombie neatly.
It is a bone burial garden and can be considered as some kind of specialized, giant carnivorous plant unique to the undead.
In some dark corners, there are some thorns covered with sharp barbs, like snakes, and similar things are happening.
In this special environment, whether living or dead, animals or plants, or anything else, they have all developed their own survival abilities.
But with the appearance of Levi, their behavior began to change. At first, they became like puppets, standing still and stupid.
Then some zombies fell to the ground first, such as the Flying Head Barbarians, Ghosts, etc., who were used to flying around, now landed on the ground like obedient primary school students, and stood there quietly with their heads lowered and their eyes submissive.
Other undead creatures that do not have human form, such as Pi Fengzheng and Gui Yi, also expressed their respect and submission to Levi through their actions.
This is the power that comes with the Lord of Death at the End after Levi collected the nine volumes of Nagash. All undead creatures will show respect and reverence to him.
Seeing this, even the two goddesses, Seleket and Hathor, could not help but be a little surprised, because they had already realized that these undead were not acting out of fear, but out of respect from the bottom of their hearts.
If they displayed the might of God, perhaps they could also prevent the undead from bothering them, but they could never do that.
After all, ordinary zombies and skeletons don’t have brains or souls at all. They are just driven by undead energy. How could they know fear or respect?
At this moment, Levi immediately became unfathomable in the minds of both of them.
Selecate couldn't help but feel a little emotional. As the Crystal Pioneer, she had been with Levi for quite some time. She didn't expect that after only a few days of separation, Levi had gained some new strength. No wonder he dared to formulate and implement such a plan.
As for Hathor, as a goddess, she surrendered to an elf. No matter how she behaved originally, she was still somewhat unwilling. Because although her situation was not good, it was not really at the end of her rope. The bright future described by Seleket was, after all, just a future.
But after seeing this scene, that unwillingness instantly disappeared without a trace. From then on, she no longer had any doubts that Levi really had a great chance of gaining benefits from Osiris's legacy and even becoming the new God of Death!
