Crown of Chaos

This siege on Cyric finally ended with the Dark Sun Prince losing a fighting incarnation. The various magic releases and various appearances between the various gods feasted the eyes of tens of thousands of onlookers in the Great Market of Woking.

Almost all the melons, fruits, snacks, cigarettes and beer in the Woking Market were sold out that day.

Ms. Holy Coin Orem, who secretly came to watch the ceremony, said with envy and regret to the six gold ladies: "It would be great if my Lord were here, she likes the excitement the most."

"So, should the next siege and voting continue to be based on Salian's proposal?" The six Shangjin ladies all laughed enough. They covered their bellies one by one. Only Helena was still a little unwilling after laughing. : "Is it about the siege of Halken and the Council setting the Dark Sun as an illegal belief?"

Ms. Holy Coin glanced at Helena. She knew that Helena was unwilling to give in. The dignified Woking Church had dozens of legendary strong men to help out. There were thousands of large and small merchants, and the savings of millions of gold coins could easily be mobilized in the treasury. , but had to follow Aaron’s requirements throughout the process.

What's this?

"Just do it." Ms. Holy Coin said calmly: "Helena, if I ask you to contact the legends of the country, how many people can you contact?"

"At least 50, if you give me enough time, 70!"

"Then, how many of them would be willing to run into the Abyss once?" Ms. Holy Coin said sternly: "How many legends can you guarantee are truly willing to keep the secret that our Lord has fallen into the Abyss?"

"Uh..." Helena opened her mouth, wanting to report the number, but seeing the sanctioning look in Ms. Holy Coin's eyes, she finally lowered her head: "I understand."

The Woking Church is very rich, and the Woking Church is very influential. It is not a problem for them to attract groups of legends to serve them.

However, Ms. Holy Coin is right. The only people the church can attract are powerful thugs, not true diehards of the church. Legends will be willing to take action for wealth, but they will not be willing to risk their lives in the abyss. The risk of becoming a little devil.

You can still be resurrected if you die in the mortal world. Finding tens of thousands of gold coins for the Woking Church is not a big deal. If you die in the abyss, you may directly turn into a little devil, and that is really the end!

As for the Woking Church itself, everyone is busy making money, investing and operating, and few truly pursue the path of becoming a strong person. Among the seven highest-ranking members of the group, only Ms. Holy Coin is a legend, and looking at her old woman-like demeanor, she is bald. With her Mediterranean head and plump body, you can tell how powerful this legend is in her fight.

"Count Salian also solved one thing for us." Ms. Holy Coin narrowed her eyes: "You might as well think about it, if Dark Sun hadn't suddenly declared war on all gods and powers in all realms and planes, the people we invited Are the legends really willing to take action against the King of Three Crowns, the High Priest of the Dark Sun who is the pinnacle of powerful divine power? Especially after seeing that red-robed assassin killing Parma like a chicken?"

The six Shangjin ladies were horrified.

"Is this even part of his plan?" Ms. Shengcoin murmured to herself, with a complicated look on her face: "This boy's future is limitless... Why doesn't our church produce such a young talent?"

"In short, it is our church's luck that he is willing to use us to round up the 'Black Will' Halken and expel the Dark Sun Church. We will implement Salian's plan." Ms. Holy Coin ordered.

"What about the red-robed assassin, the vigilant skeleton Tinos?" asked Della, the golden lady.

"Forget it. First of all, his strength may cause the church a lot of losses. Furthermore, our current priority is to urge them to leave as soon as possible."

…………

"Hahahahahahahahaha~"

"Teacher, look, An Ri is like a mouse with its tail between its legs, or like a lamb that strays into a pride of lions and turns into a meat pie after repeated beatings!"

"Oh my tummy... Hahaha, I haven't laughed so happily in such a long time. Teacher, teacher, how on earth did you do that?"

Aimeng pulled Aaron and kept talking. The girl laughed so much that her stomach hurt from the grand scene just now.

"It's a secret." Aaron watched with a smile as Cyric's incarnation was hammered into pieces by the gods. Talos, the unsatisfied Storm Lord, also fired dozens of lightning bolts, each one of which was worthy of comparison. The lightning chain, which was more powerful than the eight-ring magic, scorched Cyric's incarnation, and Midnight, the goddess of magic who hated Cyric the most, fired a series of meteor bursts, crushing his bones and scattering ashes.

The battle between gods came to an end. Aaron was smiling on his face, but he sighed slightly in his heart.

It would be great if I could pursue him all the way to Cyric's Kingdom of God on the Black Throne in the Endless Wilderness.

It's a pity that even if he carefully designed King Qi Xuan's script, even if he attracted the power of the gods, even if Cyric was arrogant to the extreme and had a bad mouth to the point of madness, it would still be impossible for the gods to start a war over this. Fighting, being able to take action to kill this incarnation is already very impressive.

This is the relationship between the gods. Even if it is a deadly feud like Midnight and Cyric, they will not take action personally unless they have to.

This can be seen from the performance of the gods today when faced with the declaration of war.

Some gods hated Cyric's behavior extremely, such as the three gods of justice and the goddess of magic. They attacked with all their strength and beat him the hardest.

Some gods were angry because they were provoked, or they took action for the sake of Aaron, such as Shar, Suellen, Sune, Tempus, and Talos. They had no intention of fighting a god war with Cyric.

Some gods just moved their hands symbolically to show that I would not pretend they didn’t hear it, such as the goddess of joy Liela, the cat goddess Charis, and the god of knowledge Ogma who came to see something new. It was just a symbolic move to show that he was not indifferent.

Some gods simply didn't come, such as Corellon and Moradin, Silvanus of the natural god system, etc. These old guys have seen too many, as well as the four main gods of the elements.

What surprised Aaron was that Lathander, who always hated evil, didn't show up.

Strange, doesn't Lathander like to get involved in these "punishing rape and eliminating evil" things?

Well, not so much.

After this is done, Aaron no longer has to worry about Cyric at least for a while. As for the two high-ranking priests, the Woking Church and the Silver Hand Crusaders will follow.

The only thing that made Aaron wary was the red-robed assassin. The strength shown by "Vigilant Skeleton" Tinos in this sneak assassination (killing everyone will not expose him), there is no doubt that Tinos will definitely get hope. Rick's power blessing even gave him the most powerful artifact just like Shar gave Nastia the artifact.

A legendary warrior could not survive two moves from Tinos!

"Is it done? We should set off." Morgan, the bald singer, whispered: "Don't waste time. If we wait one more day, the news may leak out by one or two more points. Time is money, my friend."

"Okay, I'll explain to Aimeng and the others."

Aaron gives Team Imon a mission - to raise the ransom for Eboud and Shaflock.

For the destruction and death caused by Eboud and Shaflock after they transformed into killers, the Church of Heim issued a bail of 20,000 gold coins for Aaron's sake. Aaron would not pay this money for Eboud and Shaflock. If it comes out, leave it to Aimeng and the others.

As for how to get the huge sum of 20,000 gold coins, Aaron doesn't care. Viconia brought by Nestia will take over.

"Come on, let's go!"

The pre-prepared teleportation array flashed, and Aaron took one last look at the glorious Astekara, the city of gold coins, and his team disappeared into the teleportation array.

Next stop, Baldur’s Gate!

The light flickered. After more than a year, the luxurious scenery of the upper town of Baldur's Gate appeared in front of Aaron and others again. The bald singer Morgan took the initiative to take over the navigation and led a few people towards the lower town store. Start at "Devil's Tip".

The Devil's Tip is a large store with an independent courtyard. It sells a large number of magic items and a large number of hell specialties. Anyone with enough knowledge of hell can realize that the things here are interesting from the nine levels of hell. stuff.

In addition, Devil's Tip also provides intelligence services and some shady special services. As long as you have money, the waiters and clerks here can always achieve your goals for you - although it may not be the same as you imagined.

What, no money, no money can provide services, it may just require you to sign some "contracts".

Over-the-knee boots stepped on the thick gold-patterned red carpet. Nestia held Aaron's arm. The dark elf sister had Sanye's pair of swords behind her and looked at the gargoyle statue in the Devil's Tip Shop with interest. And various monster skulls, fake devil heads: "Wow, Aaron, can you imagine a human store using human heads as decorations? This is the devil?"

Decorated with human heads?

Aaron's mind immediately flashed to the royal palace of Holy Terra and the homeworld of the Ultramarines, Macragge.

Isn’t this everywhere?

However, it is really uncommon for the kingdom to use skulls to decorate their own artifacts, except for the current Cyric, the former God of the Dead Melkor and the ancient God of Death Jaeger.

"Yes, this is the devil." Samir said with a smile: "There are also differences between devils. You can't substitute the friendship between human compatriots onto devils. For devils, they only have to live with their own kind. Superiors who obey and can be replaced by others, subordinates who are ambitious and always want to step on their superiors, and subordinates who must obey their orders and be loyal to them or else they will be punished.”

"It sounds no different from the drow in Menzoberranzan." Nestia giggled. The dark elf sister was full of expectations for this mission: "Drow are all like this. For the drow family, It is said that the essence of any covenant is to betray, and under the strict hierarchy, everyone is an enemy."

"The same goes for Calimport," Anomin agreed.

"It's different." The bald singer Morgan shook his head: "The devil's contract is the most trustworthy thing in the multiverse. There is no other thing. Similarly, as long as the devil's alliance does not touch the termination clause, then it must be carried out even if it costs everything. , This is not only the meaning of the devil’s existence, but also my Morgan’s life creed.”

"Aiya, there is a big devil here to give us a personal explanation~" Nestia didn't like Morgan in her heart, and the dark elf sister said sarcastically: "I think hell is really suitable for you, not Waking."

"Because doing business requires not only a contract, but also freedom." Aaron smiled and patted Nastia's waist, motioning her not to quarrel with Morgan, and then looked at Morgan: "Where are your allies?"

"He's almost ready, let's wait a moment." Morgan casually picked up a hell gem from the third level of hell, Minanos, in the display cabinet and played with it in his palm: "Raphael is not like his father Mo Fistophilis is so calm and steady. In fact, for the devil, having a child is never a good choice. In the cruel politics of hell, even in the best circumstances, a child can only become the descendant of its devil parents. A fragile ally, but with bad luck, an active enemy or a pawn of its parent's nemesis."

A trace of displeasure and intolerance flashed in the big devil's eyes: "This is also one of the reasons why I want to escape from hell."

"You are a great father." Aaron stood next to Morgan: "Maybe you are also a great husband."

"I think I am." Morgan said with a weird smile: "Besides, with this kind of reason and personality, it is easier for you to accept it and let Waking take over, isn't it?"

"You always have to be careful when communicating with the devil." Aaron nodded, this cunning guy.

"You have to be cautious before signing a contract with the devil. After the contract is confirmed, you can safely hand your back to me, Mr. Aaron." Morgan stroked his ring playfully: "Raphael coming!"

The big devil Raphael, dressed in gorgeous clothes, appeared on the stairs at the right time. He saluted gracefully and looked very excited: "Morgan~ my friend! You are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time!"

In the context of the devil, friends = people who are still valuable.

"Where's Cynthia?" Morgan greeted Raphael.

"Oh, you don't know how much effort it took me to bring her out from the mire and stench of Minaunos under Maman's nose. According to the agreement in the contract, I put her in a place , a very safe place." Raphael raised his chin: "Now, it's your turn to fulfill your agreement. I don't care what you want to steal at Six Fingers, you can be on your way now."

The six-pointed star array has been prepared on the second floor, and six spell-casting props leading to Avernus, the first level of hell, have been prepared.

Skulls, Incense, Mammon's Coins, Diamonds, Infernal Marbles, and a Mirror.

Raphael stood beside him and opened the pages of the book, and the big devil indicated that he could send them to hell.

Aaron, Nestia, Morgan, Samir, and Anomin made final preparations. After everything was confirmed, Raphael nodded, and he said a magic word in front of the mirror, making The surface of the mirror was covered with a black mist of flames.

No matter how hard Aaron tried, he found that he could not remember this word. It slipped past Aaron's ears like mercury. This sentence carried the power of the primordial contract, and only the great devils could know its secrets.

And then...

"Ahhhh!" Nestia, Anomin and Aaron said at the same time. The sudden strong sense of weightlessness made their bodies lose their balance. They felt that their bodies and souls were falling, falling at an indescribable speed. , falling into the depths of the multiverse!

"Have a nice trip~" Raphael closed the book meaningfully when he saw that all five people had entered.

Okay, plan A is ready, now it’s time to prepare plan B.

"Bair will like my proposal."

However, precisely because Raphael was busy with other things, he missed a ray of golden light at the moment when the portal disappeared.

In the darkness, Aaron, who was falling rapidly, suddenly felt a cold golden light embracing him and lifting his falling body.

"His Majesty?!"

"La, I'm very happy that you fulfilled your promise and sent me back to Dorne." The cold golden light held Aaron up and suspended him in mid-air: "So now I think it's time!"

"It's time to reveal to you my secret, the secret of the unborn, fifth god of Chaos, the Dark Lord!"
