Banner of the Evil God
Chapter 13
The Baiye Village was silent, and there seemed to be a chill in the air, but the houses were already broken, and a thick layer of ash accumulated on the ground. In the ashes, you could vaguely see the messy debris.
Sui Xiong looked from afar, shook his head, and sighed deeply.
He already knew the cause and effect of the original, and also knew why the old chief priest suddenly plotted against him - good and evil are mortal enemies.
The struggle between good and evil, the struggle between ideas, the struggle between positions... To put it bluntly, it is a struggle of ideology. On Earth, this struggle once developed into two major camps headed by two superpowers, and they threatened each other with weapons that could destroy all mankind several times. In this world, various pantheons, countries, races, and sects often fight for ideology. The old chief priest's act of repaying kindness with hatred and plotting with a ruthless hand is actually nothing in this context.
But hundreds of people in the entire Baiye Village lost their lives in vain because the old chief priest wanted to play an ideological struggle alone.
He did not regret his all-out attack that harmed innocent people. At that time, he knew very little about the world and was facing a huge crisis. What was wrong with struggling? However, he was full of sympathy for the villagers who died in vain. He was very dissatisfied with this world where the ideological struggle was so sharp and fierce that it was incomprehensible.
"This world is really a bit sick..."
With emotion, he controlled the giant jellyfish to walk around the village. The tentacles that were more powerful than any hoe dug deep grooves on the ground to form a simple magic circle.
This is a protective magic circle that can prevent the dead in the magic circle from turning into resurrected creatures.
The so-called resurrected creatures refer to the dead creatures whose bodies will be reactivated and turned into monsters that can move under the erosion of dark forces - called negative energy in this world. This kind of monster has no intelligence and will only attack nearby things with positive energy instinctively according to the principle of positive and negative energy conflict - the most common ones are various natural creatures.
Before Sui Xiong traveled through time, he was a game fan and had been exposed to many games. According to his idea, those who resurrected after death and turned into monsters should be called undead. But in fact, the so-called "undead system" is divided into two parts, resurrected creatures and undead creatures. The former is just a simple monster without intelligence, while the latter is a dangerous monster with wisdom and power that can continue to grow.
The sources of undead creatures are diverse, and they are backed by gods and monsters, so they can be regarded as a force that cannot be underestimated in this world. Resurrected creatures are different. They lack the minimum intelligence, cannot provide the power of faith, and cannot perform slightly complex work. They do not receive any attention and protection. Even most undead creatures despise them. They are so low-end that they cannot be any lower-end-even though many undead creatures themselves are advanced from resurrected creatures.
However, it is this thing at the low end of the monster world that poses the greatest threat to the people living in the Black Forest.
The Black Forest, whose official name should be the Ash Forest, is said to have fought here in ancient times. The dead gods turned into ashes and polluted the forest. Since then, this forest has become the birthplace of negative energy, emitting negative energy all the time, eroding the surrounding land while fusing and condensing all the bones in the forest into resurrected creatures.
Strangely, no matter how strong the resurrected creatures here become, they will not advance. This makes the Ash Forest worthless even for those villains who try to recruit undead creatures. Only poor farmers will work hard to cultivate here.
Through the analysis of the power on the shrine of the sleepless god, Sui Xiong has mastered the means of absorbing negative energy. The magic circle he designed at this moment is to extract the negative energy in the circle and disperse it to the distance.
Without the support of negative energy, the bones of the dead will naturally not transform into resurrected creatures.
Big size is convenient. Sui Xiong did not use any tools, and he quickly completed the magic circle with his powerful tentacles. With the skills trained in the art department of a third-rate art school, the entire magic circle was drawn perfectly without any flaws.
Before starting the magic circle, he once again stepped into the White Leaf Village and checked it carefully.
This magic circle will greatly reduce the concentration of negative energy in the circle. If undead creatures have already appeared in the village, they will be killed by it.
Although undead creatures are rare, there may be accidents.
As he guessed, he really found undead creatures in the ruins.
It was a dead soul with only a soul left, making a fighting posture and fighting with non-existent enemies.
Sui Xiong recognized it at a glance - bald, tall, and agile, this guy is the most powerful warrior in the village!
According to the information obtained from the shrine, this strong man is called Gerard Caban, and he used to be a mercenary. Because he offended a big man outside, he fled to the remote Ash Forest to live in seclusion. He lacks faith and has no respect for gods. He only believes in his axe. He is also a teacher. He has a high reputation in the village and can be regarded as a thorn in the eyes of the old priest.
The strong in this world are roughly divided into three levels: bronze, silver and gold. The characteristic of advancement is the change of life form. Above the gold level are those legendary creatures with long lifespans and strong power. Above that... are gods and demons. Gerald and the old chief priest are both bronze level. In terms of strength, ordinary strong men of 20 to 30 are not enough for them to fight. However, the old chief priest is old and weak after all, while Gerald is in his prime. The two sides have had several conflicts, and the old chief priest has always been at a disadvantage.
As a priest of the evil god, he has many spells to use. But Gerald is an old man who has been in the world for many years. He is very cunning and has never given the old chief priest a chance to plot against him. Until that night of fierce battle, the old chief priest sacrificed himself to launch the slavery technique to plot against Sui Xiong, but ended up pulling Gerald and the entire village to be buried with him.
Sui Xiong stared at Gerald's undead soul. Most of the body of this soul had become dim and empty, and only a little light at the heart position was still beating. If nothing unexpected happens, after a while, he will completely dissipate and become part of the negative energy that permeates the entire Ash Forest.
But now that Sui Xiong is here, things will turn around.
After a little thought, Sui Xiong released his magic power, turned into a gray sphere, and enveloped Gerald.
The sphere was filled with pure negative energy. Under the control of Sui Xiong's magic, they continued to penetrate Gerald's soul, making the already weak undead quickly strong. After only a while, the undead became as clear as a living person, and the face was rejuvenated with wisdom.
He stopped and stood there, looking around in confusion.
"What is going on?"
"You are dead." Sui Xiong said.
Gerald turned his head to look at the huge beast, and the confusion in his eyes did not completely disappear: "But what is going on?"
Sui Xiong sighed and told him the cause and effect of the matter in detail.
"So that's how it is..." Gerard was silent for a long time after listening to Sui Xiong's story, and all his sighs finally turned into a long sigh.
"What are you going to do?" Sui Xiong saw that he was in a low mood and asked, "Go to hell or go to the kingdom of God?"
In this world, if the souls of the dead do not want to dissipate or become undead creatures, there are only two places to go. Either go to hell and gamble your luck to see if you will degenerate into an evil monster, or enter the great Styx that runs through all the worlds, wash away the past dust and reincarnate; or go to the kingdom of the gods you believe in, transform into a creature of the kingdom of God, live for a few more years, and finally completely integrate into it and become a part of the kingdom of God.
Sui Xiong did not get much information, and he was not very clear about what life in hell and the kingdom of God was like, but according to his thinking, these two options seemed not very good.
If you want to reincarnate, just reincarnate directly, what's the big deal about becoming a monster! There is nothing wrong with living in the kingdom of God, but why do you have to integrate into it and become building materials in the future!
Gerard was silent for a while, and said: "I believed in the God of Thieves, but later I abandoned my faith. Now I am a non-believer. No country of God will accept me. And hell... I don't want to go..."
"Then there is no way. There are only two ways: dissipate or become an undead creature. Which one do you choose?" Sui Xiong said, "Forget about dissipating. If you want to be an undead creature, I have some skills and can help you transform. At least you can retain some rationality."
"I don't want to be a ghost or a death knight..."
"You have high requirements."
Gerald smiled: "I never thought that when I was alive, I was chased like a dog by several bronze-level killers, and after I died, I actually talked and laughed with a powerful legendary creature... Forget it, I've let it go, so I'll just dissipate."
The only difficulty in the ages is death. At this moment, he let go of death, and his whole temperament became calm and noble.
But Sui Xiong didn't want him to die completely like this. Gerard was a good person and had some skills. The most important thing was that he had traveled all over the country for many years and had a lot of experience. He was unfamiliar with this world, and the information he got from the shrine was unreliable. If he could win over Gerard to be a guide, it would be much more convenient.
Let alone other things, let this bald guy pretend to be a great magician, and he pretend to be the legendary creature he summoned, which would save a lot of trouble! He was so big, if he didn't find a suitable identity, he would cause panic when he went out!
So he thought for a long time and finally made up his mind.
"This... I'll try to rebuild a body for you..." he said.
"What?" Gerard was stunned and didn't understand what he said.
"I'll try to rebuild a body for you, and see if you can attach it to it and revive."
Gerard was overjoyed, but he was a little hesitant-necromancy was notorious, so he couldn't help but be afraid.
However, he thought again, is it necessary for such a powerful creature to deceive a tiny mortal like him? For example, the plots in folk tales where the devil deceived mortals to sign contracts also deceived those great people with outstanding talents and bright futures. Who would spend this much energy for a poor adventurer who is already dead and about to die? Wouldn't it be better to just cast a spell to command the undead creatures...
Thinking of this, he felt relieved, but still couldn't help asking: "Is this really okay?"
Sui Xiong laughed: "Give it a try, anyway, you are ready to wait for death, even if the resurrection fails, there is no loss."
This is very convincing. Just like a person is ready to stop playing a certain game, what's the harm in using the account to test the plug-in?
OK, no problem!
Gerard accepted the proposal after a brief thought, and then cooperated with Sui Xiong to start rebuilding his body.
