Banner of the Evil God

Satan came out of seclusion because he had reached the pinnacle of the legendary realm.

Theoretically, there is no limit to the legendary realm. Even if you cannot become a demigod, you can continue to become stronger and remain powerful.

In the more barbaric ancient times, there were such legendary strong men. Their power was enough to make even the gods turn their attention. Not to mention weak divine powers, even weak divine powers may not be their opponents.

But a legend is a legend. Without truly completing the transformation of life, there is no ability to jump out of the long river of time and ignore the passage of time. As time goes by, these ridiculously powerful legendary warriors are eventually unable to withstand the passage of time, and they grow old and die one by one.

As far as Sui Xiong knew, there was no such legendary strong man in the world today.

It's not that the ancients are better than today's people, but that in today's world, legendary strong men will pursue the demigod realm after reaching their peak state, thereby trying to defeat time and obtain immortality.

So does Satan.

This time he came out of seclusion, he planned to start purifying the Ash Forest on a large scale, and use this achievement to verify the "purification", so that he could be recognized by the origin of the world, so that his soul could be sublimated and move towards a demigod.

In some schools of thought, this is called "igniting the divine fire". Because at the moment when the soul sublimates, the whole person will emit a strong flame like burning.

Originally, Sui Xiong said that he also had some experience in "purification" and could give him a trace of divinity, allowing him to directly devour this divinity and initiate the sublimation of his soul. But Satan insists on relying on his own efforts to get a response from the world and achieve sublimation on his own.

This is of course much more difficult than obtaining the "purified" divinity from Sui Xiong and then sublimating it, but every effort is rewarded. Relying on the world's response to initiate soul sublimation, the resulting divinity is the most suitable for you. There is no need to take it slowly. After careful consideration and revision, it will be much easier to become a god in the future.

Because the world has responded to you, it means that the "origin" has prepared a share for you. In the future, as long as you accumulate enough faith or reach enough strength, you want to implement this share and turn it into a chair in the Pantheon. It won't be too difficult.

In contrast, if you rely on other people's divinity to sublimate, you will not get the world's response and recognition, and you still need to try to earn a share. The difficulty of becoming a god is obviously much more difficult than that of people who have already received a share before, and even It can be said that it is not on the same level at all.

That's why Sui Xiongcai never mentioned giving Leon divinity, because he hoped that Leon could find a way to obtain a share of the origin, so that he could have the hope of becoming a god.

But Satan does not need to be so cautious. No one has obtained the priesthood of "Purification" so far. Even if he is not the only one, he should have a lot of original shares in this area. Even if he does not obtain it when he sublimates his soul, it will not be difficult in the future. get.

Sui Xiong and Satan discussed this matter in detail, and Satan strongly expressed that since he had the opportunity to monopolize a priesthood, why not try to monopolize it? If you can get a response from the world and ignite the divine fire to sublimate your soul, you will know at this moment whether you have any competitors. If not, of course it would be best. If there is... haha, some words don't need to be said so clearly.

Sui Xiong was convinced by him. The gods who monopolized the priesthood were indeed not comparable to ordinary gods. For example, Wall, he monopolized the priesthood of "knowledge". Since then, although many gods in the pantheon have been inspired and worked hard in this field, they have not been able to get a single share of the priesthood. If at a critical moment, He can even temporarily block anyone's ability in the field of "knowledge".

Similarly, Akane also monopolizes the "medical" priesthood, which also has the same effect.

This is not the case with Sui Xiong's other subordinate god, the God of Healing, Sanwu. Although the God of Healing once monopolized the "healing" priesthood, he was unlucky and was harmed by the previous generation of Sun God, and became Angel of love. In the long years since then, although no one has been able to replace the "healing" priesthood due to the existence of the loving angel, there are still many people among the gods who have taken part in this priesthood in a roundabout way. Nowadays, there are basically gods with the "healing" priesthood in the relatively large pantheon. Even though he was reborn with the help of Sui Xiong and gained most of the "healing" source at once, he still does not have the exclusive priesthood after all. Kind of domineering.

Now, He can only cut off the healing abilities of the gods who do not have this priesthood but only master this field, but cannot do so to those gods who also master this part of the priesthood.

If Sui Xiong goes to war with other gods, his subordinate gods can directly block the "knowledge" and "medical" abilities of the opponent and his followers, but they can do much less in terms of "treatment".

So for this benefit, it is indeed important to know early whether Satan has any competitors.

Satan chatted with everyone for a while, and then gave an assignment to Nisi, a student he hadn't seen for several years - a new magic research topic, and then got down to business.

"I plan to build another large purification array." He said, "The plan is divided into two steps. The first step is to build purification arrays for those pioneer villages. The second step is to use all these purification arrays as nodes. , include them all, and build a giant purification circle that includes all the currently developed areas."

Everyone imagined it and couldn't help but marvel at his huge plan. Only Mrs. Teague, the grand consul in charge of civil affairs, changed her face.

"It will take too many resources!" She immediately objected, "We can't afford such a large-scale project at present!"

Sui Xiong was stunned when he heard this and asked, "Are we short of money now?"

"It's not a matter of money." Mrs. Tig realized that she had just lost her temper and hurriedly explained, "We don't lack money. But building so many purification arrays, especially the last super-giant purification array, requires a lot of manpower, and we don't have enough materials for building magic arrays. If we have to rush to start construction, it will not only slow down the construction of the entire country, but it is also likely to lead to the embarrassing situation of finding that there are no materials when the project is halfway done."

Everyone finally understood the truth and frowned.

Insufficient manpower has always been the biggest problem facing the Northwest Republic. Even if they even use skeleton laborers, the population is still far from enough, and many construction projects are still in a long-term shortage of manpower.

The Satan Mage's plan is indeed grand and huge, and it will definitely bring huge benefits after completion, but...where can the current Northwest Republic get so many people to build so many magic arrays?

Compared with the problem of insufficient manpower, insufficient materials are not so glaring, but we cannot help but guard against it.

Hearing Mrs. Tigg's explanation, the Satan Mage frowned and asked: "Really can't transfer manpower? I estimate that only about a thousand people are enough."

Mrs. Tigg's eyes widened, looking at him as if he was a madman: "A thousand people?! We have to try to transfer a hundred people, a thousand people... where can I find so many people for you!"

"Don't we have skeleton laborers? Let the necromancer summon another batch." Steele said lazily, "Anyway, for him, it's nothing more than two or three days."

After saying this, the Satan Mage sighed, and Niss couldn't help laughing: "Auntie Steele, that's the construction of the purification array! When the skeletons go there, they will be purified by the materials directly?"

Steele just remembered it, and couldn't help laughing.

Indeed, let the skeletons build the purification array? This is even more unreliable than hitting a dog with a meat bun!
