Magic Underachiever
Chapter 41: The Dread Lord
Even if Charles didn't say anything about the rest, Daliang could guess it.
Charles must have taken Jessica away in another identity, raised her up, and tried every means to find out who her ancestors were. The truth has been revealed, and the one who suffered the most... must be Jessica, who has been deceived and used.
Looking at Jessica, who was trying not to cry out loud, but tears kept flowing down, Daliang felt extremely distressed.
But he had to admit that Charles did save her, otherwise she would have died in the hands of the Church of Gazing into the Abyss even if she would not die in the hands of the devil. For a moment, Daliang didn't know how to deal with this devil's fanatic, a cunning and shrewd human.
And Daliang also heard a familiar name from Charles.
"Ergus..." From Daliang's perspective, 2000 years was just a moment for him, and Ergus had just met and talked with him not long ago. Now a believer in Ergus is in front of him, which is definitely a good opportunity to understand hell and the devil. Daliang tried not to be affected by Jessica's crying, and said to Charles at a normal speed: "Has that abyss python become a god? It is worthy of being a guy who not only touched the power of God and was not harmed but also became the Lord of Hell...
Let's continue the topic just now... Hell, demons, and your Church of Gazing into the Abyss, tell me everything you know.
Sleeping for such a long time, I missed a lot of things."
Charles confirmed his guess... The person in front of him must have fallen asleep for some reason before the Dark Ages, and then was forgotten in the era of theocracy.
Now that he has awakened, after the gods and super powers have disappeared, he has the power to subvert the entire world.
And he has a very high status among demons and undead, which means that he was once an important member of the evil camp. His awakening will surely tear apart the hypocrisy of this world and let chaos and evil spread unstoppably...
What the Church of the Good, what the emperors and nobles, in front of the nature of evil... all are scum!
When this world becomes a new hell, as the spokesperson of this demon god, he will definitely become the new lord of hell... commanding evil!
All the efforts and all the forbearance will be rewarded at this moment.
Charles told Daliang in detail about the world and history he knew.
After the God Plane was opened by a super strong man, the world appeared with power other than magic... that is, divine power. God can use divine power directly, and God's believers can be given the right to use divine power by God, that is, to use divine arts.
Although the gods have disappeared from this world after the end of the theocracy, their divine power still exists in this world, forming two power systems with the magic that has always existed.
Magic requires the opening of talent, the need to exercise affinity with magic elements, the need to accumulate one's own magic power, and the need to learn spellcasting theory and spellcasting formula...
And divine arts only require enough piety to communicate with the corresponding gods left here, so as to obtain the right to use divine power.
The dread demon Ergus was promoted from a law-level hero to a god after the God Plane was opened. Gazing into the Abyss is a sect that believes in Ergus and can obtain divine arts from him.
Charles said: "The history before the dark world has almost disappeared. Even if I explored some ancient ruins, there is no way to know what happened in that era.
According to the information I got from the Church of Gazing into the Abyss, Ergus, the Lord of Dread, is the first Lord of Hell to become a god in the Hell plane. Fear is his priesthood. He can gain divine power from the fear of all creatures. He is the most powerful demon and the leader of Hell..."
Da Liang asked at this time: "In the information of the Church of Gazing into the Abyss... Ergus is the leader of Hell, not the master of Hell?"
Charles replied: "This is exactly what makes the Church of Gazing into the Abyss confused. According to the limited information about Hell, Ergus is the leader of Hell, not the master of Hell?" According to the data, the ruler of hell is also called the Lord of Hell. However, the records of Ergus include the Lord of Dread, the God of the Abyss, the Lord of Hell, the Ruler of the Earth... but there is no title of the Lord of Hell.
According to Ergus's power as the strongest demon god, no one should dare to oppose his claim to be the Lord of Hell.
This is also the biggest regret of the Church of Gazing at the Abyss. In that blank period of history, the records of the Lord of Hell are very chaotic. It seems that the Lord of Hell has experienced many changes, which also means that hell respects strength and whoever is strong can rule hell.
But Ergus always calls himself the Lord of Dread. "
As the Lord of Hell, Daliang was surprised that Ergus did not usurp the throne, but it was also expected.
In the hell full of treachery and deception, the Lord of Dread Ergus is an outlier. He was originally a low-level hell creature... an abyss python. After absorbing the extremely evil divine power that permeated into the abyss of hell from the hidden divine plane, he did not become a monster controlled by divine power, but grew into one of the original seven Lords of Hell in hell.
Later, Hell was in turmoil, with internal strife and foreign invasion. Ergus was also displaced and lived a life of escape... But his tenacity, trustworthiness and wisdom were appreciated by Daliang.
Later, under various opportunities, Ergus was recruited by Daliang, who became the new Lord of Hell, and became a hero under the Black Fire Territory.
And Daliang's last order to Ergus was to reorganize the forces of Hell that were beaten to a pulp in the war between the good and evil planes.
Now it seems... Ergus did not betray him. This is not the devil's style, but it is very consistent with Ergus's usual character. I just don't know where Ergus and those gods have gone. Only the divine power with his consciousness remains in this world.
Da Liang continued to ask: "It seems that you don't know whether hell still exists?"
Charles could see that the ancient superhero in front of him should be very familiar with Ergus, and his tone was not humble like that of a lower person. Perhaps he was a god of the same status as Ergus. Charles was even more excited about his guess. He didn't dare to be negligent and quickly answered: "After the planes collided, we lost all contact with other planes. We don't know whether hell still exists. We can only use magic to create demon creatures without mind, or summon the ancient demon projections of the Lord of Fear to exchange souls for power and more advanced magic.
These ancient demon projections are the condensation of the power of fear, and there is no way to communicate.
Great ancient demon, may I ask... are you familiar with the Lord of Fear?"
Yes, of course I know... or we are old acquaintances. There was a time when Ergus ran away when he saw me. Of course he had no legs, but he definitely ran faster than those with legs.
Da Liang recalled the experience of chasing Ergus and said: "Ergus and I have a good relationship. I saved him and he helped me."
