Crown of Chaos

The Holy Warrior's artifact, the Holy Avenger, shimmered with layers of halo in Leonard's hands.

Since this weapon fell into Leonard's hands, Leonard has understood his mission.

Kill Shamu and completely end Bane's legacy.

So Leonard became invisible and joined the Salian Shogunate Army. Through his friendship with the brothers Eboud, Imon, and Shafrok, he obtained the help of the Shadow Thief of Amn and successfully sneaked into the secret place of Zhentil Keep. .

Aaron doesn't care about Shamu becoming a god, but Aaron hopes that Shamu can take the initiative to become a god, because this is the key to Aaron's fight for the [Dispute] priesthood.

Leonard is different, he wants Chamu to die.

Normal mortals cannot harm gods, even newborn gods.

Leonard can do it because he is the son of Baal, and Leonard can do it because he holds the artifact "Holy Avenger" in his hand.

Fu Zor disappeared mysteriously the moment Shamu became a god. Disma was attracted to another place to fight with the three Bode brothers. The hundreds of Ben priests present were all drained of all the power of faith.

You only get one chance.

Leonard did it. When the sword blade broke through Shamu's divine shield and heard the sound of flesh entering, Leonard was relieved.

His goal accomplished, he could die calmly.

Until the black fist held the Holy Avenger.

Bane, the true god of tyranny and the leader of the three gods of death, emerged from Shamu's body in the form of a young human bodybuilding male!

Shamu's chest blossomed and the skin tore apart. The new god of tyranny and hatred, the weak god of the scorched hell, saw his father's resurrection with his own eyes. The son of Bane opened his mouth, and then like a deflated ball, the god's body Wither away.

"My child, stupid guy." Ben's appearance is arrogant and evil, with both masculine and feminine beauty. His new body is perfect: "The more you inherit me, the closer you will be to me. The closer you come to my throne, the more you will become me.”

"Now, I'm back, and you have completed your mission, sleep peacefully." Ben's strong wrist took the magic sword of Marche Kidd from Shamu's hand: "Become me, this is The greatest meaning of your existence, I will give you a decent burial."

Throughout the whole process, Ben didn't even look at Leonard.

The son of cricket Baal is unworthy.

After flicking away the Holy Avenger, Ben looked at the more than 300 priests in the audience who had fainted because they had been drained of the power of faith. He sighed slightly and shed a tear from the corner of his eye.

They are all loyal believers!

Without you, there would be no Bane, the god of tyranny!

Tears fell from his eyes, and Ben waved his hand with emotion. The priests whose power of faith had been drained were once again drained of energy. Their life force was completely drained by Ben. More than three hundred lives were needed to make up for the need to ascend again.

These are necessary sacrifices and the price of helplessness.

Ben remembered their names one by one.

This God will erect a monument for you.

The [Dispute] priesthood was taken away, and the [Bureaucrat] priesthood was taken back. Now the only core priesthoods left by Bane are [Fear] and [Hate].

This is not good news for Bane, but these two priesthoods alone are enough for him to regain his powerful divine power!

Even though I have fallen, I am still the king of tyranny when I return! The leader of the three gods of death!

Bane ascended to heaven calmly, his perfect human male divine body wrapped in pale flames, and he was about to return to his divine kingdom.

"wait!"

Leonard was like crazy and slashed at Bane's divine shield with the Holy Avenger sword after sword. Within a few seconds, Tom's legendary paladin emptied all his reserves of Holy Slash. Every time he Each strike had the power to break up mountains and seas, causing the entire throne room to tremble.

But Ben still didn't look at him.

After burning Baal and reaching the ultimate sublimation of his divinity, Leonard no longer had enough power to break Bane's divine shield.

As a mortal, there is almost no chance of winning when facing a god.

"Wait! Don't go!" Leonard shouted, his voice hoarse: "The battle between us is not over yet! Ben, Ben!!!"

"Come back!!!"

Only the black and white fire rising higher and higher answered Leonard.

"Don't you understand yet?" A voice sounded from behind Leonard. Cormyr General Aaron Salian held the [Dispute] priesthood in his hand and said coldly: "Bane was resurrected with the help of Shamu, and his father Reborn in his son, all of Chamu's efforts so far have been in vain, or in other words, all of his efforts have been just a lie, a lie that Bane made him believe that he could become a god."

"What did you say?" Leonard's eyes widened. As a paladin, he rarely thought so much.

"Bane's remaining power kept hinting at what Shamu should do. He wanted Shamu to inherit his position, his priesthood, and his throne." Aaron watched Ben's ascent from below coldly: "Ban Bishamu is much more dangerous. I originally hoped to support Chamu, an enemy who is a little immature and whose strength and wisdom are not as good as Bane. But, University President, you resurrected Bane."

"I resurrected Ben?" Leonard shook his head vigorously. He grabbed Aaron's collar excitedly: "Impossible! Didn't you see what I was doing? Aaron! I was trying to kill Him! I’m killing Him!!!”

Aaron turned a blind eye to Leonard's fierce reaction. He shook his head and walked from behind Leonard: "Do you think that you are constantly chasing and killing the son of Benn and removing Benn's descendants from the country one by one? Can we weaken Bane's power and prevent his resurrection?"

"The answer is, completely wrong."

"The more you destroy the son of Bane, the more Bane's will and divine power will be concentrated on Chamu. You think you are preventing him from resurrecting, but in fact, you are helping Bane resurrect!"

Aaron's voice was like a huge bell being struck, exploding in Leonard's ears.

"No, it's impossible!" Leonard shook his head vigorously, his face as pale as paper: "This is the conclusion I came to after putting in so much effort, the way to completely end Ben's tyranny!"

"So, Leonard, my senior." Aaron patted Leonard on the shoulder: "You have never truly escaped Barr's control for a day, and you have never truly been yourself for a day. You have to break up with Miss Lysa. , you will choose to run away, you will go to great lengths to kill Bane, and you think that eliminating all the sons of Bane will end the tyranny. You will go out on adventures, and you will get the Holy Avenger. All of these are what Baal wants you to do. "

"To be honest, Leonard, I once thought about who is the Son of Slaughter?" Aaron clasped his hands behind his back: "I have doubted Disma, I have doubted Samir, I have doubted Anomin and Charlotte. , I even doubted Alice!"

"But the only thing I didn't doubt was you!" Aaron pointed at Leonard: "Before you killed the Son of Bane! I never doubted you once! It wasn't until the Battle of Baldur's Gate that I had to believe it. , you, the paladin of the Oath of Devotion, are actually the Son of God Baal!!!"

"Huh~uh~huh~huhuhuhu~" Leonard's breathing became more and more rapid. The legendary paladin dropped the Holy Avenger and threw the weapon that killed the gods on the ground: "Then why didn't you stop me?"

"Because, you can use Holy Avenger to break through Shamu's divine shield, and you can also use it to break through mine." A trace of guilt showed in Aaron's eyes: "I don't dare to bet, who knows who is holding the sword? Leonard or Barr?"

"Uhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

The paladin of Poyin opened his mouth to the maximum and closed his eyes tightly. He held his face with his ten fingers, and his nails scratched red marks along the skin. He hugged himself with both hands like a tramp in the snow country. Rubbing the ground to keep warm, he cried out in despair.

So cold!

Why is the weather so cold in June? !

Because it's fake! It's all fake!

Fake! ! !

"Why did I become a paladin?" As if grasping the last straw, Leonard stared at Aaron and asked: "Is it because of Barr's will?"

"I don't know." Aaron shook his head: "I can't tell whether Barr affects you all, or only affects you at certain times. I'm going to deal with Bane now. You can think about what's next. What should be done.”

After saying that, Aaron planned to leave.

Leonard grabbed his arm: "Wait."

"Even if you draw on the power of the four evil gods, even if you possess the magic sword, even if you have controlled the priesthood, you are not a true god after all!" The university president smiled sadly, and his golden hair was quickly turning gray: "You How to deal with Bane who is about to regain his powerful divine power?!"

"I took away his [Dispute] priesthood." Aaron was very calm: "There must be a battle between us. Don't be afraid. In the worst case, I will ask the four gods for help, and Shar will do the same."

"Hehehehehehehe~" Leonard laughed loudly and shook his head vigorously: "It is always dangerous to make a deal with the evil god."

Tom's legendary paladin stretched his hand to his chest, as if he was going through great pain, Leonard pulled out a platinum ball of light: "This is for you."

"What's this?"

"This is the light Thom gave me." Leonard smiled miserably: "He gave me the power to kill the Son of Bane, and it also sealed the divinity I obtained after hunting many Sons of Bane. Come with my power, Aaron, it will allow you to fight Bane for a few rounds."

"You have become unscrupulous in order to achieve your goals, Aaron." Leonard is aging rapidly. He has stripped away his source of power, and also stripped himself of the link between himself as a paladin and the multiverse: "I don't want to If you become that kind of person, don't make a deal with the evil god, Aaron, accept my power, isn't this exactly what you want?"

"Senior..." Aaron pursed his lips, his pupils vibrated and were slightly moist.

Leonard is no longer a paladin.

But Leonard is still a paladin.

"Hehehe~ Okay, I don't blame you." Leonard's always bright eyes gradually dimmed, and something in his eyes that he insisted on, something he had struggled for his whole life, was disappearing: "The belief that he has been persisting in all his life has been proven. It’s a lie, and the career you’ve worked for all your life is a wrong feeling, can you understand?”

"I am a paladin, but I have nothing left to protect."

"This time, let me truly make a decision of my own will." Leonard's body declined, decayed, and became diseased, and age spots appeared on the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes. His voice became older, but still the same as both sides. The same as when we first met: "Take it! Aaron Salian!"

Transformed into a world of mortals, wandering alone.

The paladins dispersed in front of Aaron.

"There are still many things worth protecting!!!" Aaron wiped the corners of his eyes and shouted vigorously: "I can do it, I..."

He suddenly understood.

Of course, Leonard has met Eboud and Shaflock, and he doesn't want to become like them. He is a paladin, a white knight who swears an oath of devotion and has made an oath that I will have no self and live up to justice.

Aaron clenched his fingers tightly until his palms bled. He gritted his teeth and glanced at the ball of light floating in front of him, realizing that Ben was flying higher and higher.

Reaching out, Leonard's power flew into his body.

A golden mask pattern appears on the outer ring of the Golden Law.

Leonard's face.

A golden beam of light rose from the ground of Zhentil Keep.

Divine power!

…………

Ben rose higher and higher. He returned to his dead divine body. He sighed slightly and used the last remaining divine power to fuse his dead divine body with his resurrected body.

The strength of the God of Tyranny is recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the star realm once again salutes the birth of a new god.

Saint form, demigod, god-like power, weak divine power!

Medium divine power!

Powerful divine power!

At the moment when Bane's strength returned to powerful divine power, a feeling of extreme emptiness came from the body of the God of Tyranny. Bane immediately covered his chest, spitting out black divine blood, and covered his arrogance in pain. The evilly handsome face allowed divine blood to spurt out from its eyes, nostrils, mouth and ears.

After all, he lost [Dispute] and [Bureaucracy]. Although Bane restored himself to powerful divine power, it was limited to this. The broken crown of tyranny caused Bane to be seriously injured, and the loss of key priesthood made Bane currently His combat power can only be restored to the level of medium divine power!

This wound will never recover unless He can wrest [Strife] from Aaron's hand!

Before Bane could take a breath, golden light penetrated the tranquility of the star realm, followed by the roar of the Golden Rule beast and Draconion's hungry call.

Aaron is chasing us again!

Moreover, there was an aura about him that made Ben feel extremely dangerous.

This kid! Ben clutched his chest, he knew what it was - it was the power of Tom who perished with him in the catastrophe of the Saint.

This sincerity cannot be competed with.

The God of Tyranny escaped. He escaped without hesitation. He escaped very far away from the star realm and to a certain corner of the kingdom. He plunged headlong into it without even daring to look back.

Aaron saw that he really couldn't catch up, so he had to give up. After all, a powerful god must escape, and Aaron really couldn't catch up at the moment.

It’s so shameless!

He turned towards Cyric.

The three gods of chaos have begun to attack the city of strife.

It's time to take away Cyric's third and fourth crowns!
