Crown of Chaos

PS: Here is a question for everyone. Regarding the skin color of the Sword Song Elf, do you prefer it to be as white as it is, or... take the dark skin route? Please leave a message here and I will use it as a reference.

After everything was done, Aaron sat down and rested.

This adventure made him mentally tired. He could feel that his brain was running faster than before, but he was also more tired than before he set off.

True, Tzeentch appreciated the knowledge he had gathered, granting him greater strength and restoring all his magic, but there was no way to alleviate the physical and mental fatigue.

The tall and slender figure of the sword-singing beauty Aponia is still standing in front of the four golden statues of giant snakes. Thick purple-gray divine power is constantly flowing out of the two divine power scrolls, penetrating into the pool. She is casting spells and operating with continuous concentration. Magic circle.

Aaron observed her spell, which seemed to replace and confuse the restrictions set by the snake god Seth, leaving a gap in the protective magic. Apponia could take advantage of this opportunity to steal the egg of the snake god Seth.

So the question is, for what purpose does Aponya want to steal the egg of the snake god?

Aaron sat cross-legged on the damp, warm ground, thinking about his purpose.

Divinity is the divine spark, which represents the difference between high-dimensional creatures and mortal creatures. The divine spark represents the power essence of the gods. Because the gods are energy creatures and not physical creatures, gods basically do not have any fatal injury, that is, immune to any fatal attack.

Even if they fall to the mortal world and become saints during the Saint Catastrophe, they are still in semi-energy form. The gods will not die immediately if their hearts are pierced, and they can even continue to survive without a heart. Therefore, there will be many Divine creatures are immune to backstabs, and even immune to many spells that determine instant death.

The most obvious thing is that Aaron possesses a spark of divinity from each of the Four Gods of Chaos. This is proof that he was personally selected by the Four Gods, and it is also the proof that he was able to obtain the Regent Princess in the face of dangers and countless geniuses. Attention is the reason why he can jump from a second-generation aristocrat with mediocre talents and mediocre attributes to a supernova of Cormyr in just a few months.

Similarly, the famous Seven Sisters of the North, Elminster, and the Queen Regent mentioned Sammaster, the leader of the Dragon Witch Cult, are all similar divinity owners. The second-generation magic goddess used her divinity to Infused into these chosen people, the divinity of the Goddess of Magic is called Silver Fire.

Miss Charlotte also has a trace of the divinity of the golden sun in the star world, and if Ms. Silver Star in the open-air altar of Shenhai Town can be promoted to legend and become a high-level enlightenment in the future, then she may also get A hint of Selun's divinity as a reward.

Therefore, gods can bestow divinity on their descendants or elects.

But it is not absolute. Many powerful creatures in the outer world also possess divinity, such as elemental djinn, abyss demons, immortal gods, devil lords, fairy queens, hundred-armed giants, legendary dragons, ancient tree men, etc. , their divinity comes from the laws of the plane or bloodline.

In the kingdom, there are actually quite a few divine creatures, but they are still thousands of miles away from becoming gods.

Because of the three-piece set of gods, divinity-godhead-priesthood is a progressive relationship. Although the power of the divine spark is powerful, it all has its source. The gods can grant you divinity, or they can give you divinity without hesitation. The earth takes back all the divinity.

Only by integrating and controlling the external divinity in oneself and being able to generate the spark of divinity on one's own can one ensure that the power of divinity truly belongs to oneself.

This process is also called condensing the godhead. Otherwise, the divine spark in a divine creature is water without a source or a tree without a root. It may be taken back or taken away at any time. Only by condensing the godhead can you say that the power of the divine spark truly belongs to By myself.

Because the four gods were beaten away, they could not take back the divine spark in Aaron for the time being. This was Aaron's greatest luck.

But this is not enough. There are many beings who possess godhood and divinity but are not true gods. The most typical ones are the abyss lords in the bottomless abyss or the devil kings in Baator Hell. Their strongest ones are only god-like. False gods, they have divinity and godhead, but no priesthood.

The priesthood represents the integration and control of the laws of the universe. For example, the blood god Khorne, as long as there is war, killing, glory, and bloody heads on the battlefield, he can get feedback of strength and emotion from it. Through the priesthood Entering the godhead generates more divine sparks, which are transformed into the power of Khorne, and then Khorne will bestow divinity on mortals. This is the origin of Khorne's Chosen God and even the Demon Prince.

If Aaron becomes a god with the priesthood of Chaos, then it will be as big as the exchange of every ray of energy in the universe, every change brought about by uncertainty, as small as the tense breathing of the drinkers who are playing dice games in the tavern as the dice are turned. , will become the source of his strength.

This is called chaos, without distinction!

Therefore, since the divine sparks of the Four Gods of Chaos are extremely powerful and cover an extremely wide area, Aaron does not need to worry about the conflicts caused by absorbing other divine sparks, but why does Aponia want to get the divine sparks from the Snake God's Egg? Where's the spark?

No, Aaron found that his thinking had entered a misunderstanding.

Why did he assume that Aponya must have come to get the divine spark?

Sister? Aaron, who was sitting on the ground, asked softly, How's it going?

The caster needs to concentrate on casting many spells, that is, focusing his attention on the spell. Once interrupted, the spell casting will be interrupted and the caster will be counterattacked by the magic.

Therefore, apprentices are always careful not to allow any mistakes when casting spells.

But as the spellcasting proficiency improves, the so-called concentrated spellcasting of spellcasters gradually becomes more and more comfortable. For example, in the fanfic Elminster at Old Trafford that Aaron saw, Elminster The fact that Ste was flying with Ronaldo on the court while focusing on casting spells is enough to illustrate the magic level of this great sage.

Sword Song Beauty is a master professional, and Aaron believes that her level is not bad.

What's the matter, little novice? Have you finished taking everything? Sure enough, the beauty of Sword Song can still chat while casting spells: Is there anything good you want to show my sister?

How did you trick those orcs into adventuring in this ruins? Aaron asked pretending to be casual: Such a dangerous place...

...Didn't I tell you that? The orc chiefs were already dying. I told them that there was a secret here that could extend the chief's life, so they came without hesitation. Apponia still stared at the snake god of eggs.

That's what I'm asking, why do you let them believe it? Aaron nodded.

The average lifespan of an orc is only 35 years.

Yes, you read that right. The average lifespan of the orcs in the kingdom is really only 35 years old. The orcs reach adulthood at the age of 7, and their bodies begin to age after the age of 20. The maximum lifespan is around 40-45 years old, and the vast majority of the orcs Do not live to die a natural death.

Orcs are hybrids of orcs and humans (no ambiguity). The average lifespan is only 50 years old, and the lifespan limit is 70-75 years old. 14 years old is the age at which orcs reach adulthood.

Why do you believe it? Giggle~ Of course I rely on this~ Aponya smiled sweetly. There was no one else in the secret room. She also took off the noble and elegant disguise that a sun elf should have. At this time, every move of the sword-singing beauty was captured. All full of wildness and nonchalance: Eggs of the Snake God.

Throw this egg into the water, boil it into a poached egg, and eat it to extend your life. Aponya said confidently: This is true. I didn't lie to them. If they can do it, , that old chief can really live another fifty years.

The most brilliant lie is that nine out of ten sentences are true, and one sentence is half false and half true, deliberately causing the other party to misunderstand. The sword song beauty said casually.

A more clever lie is one that is obviously a lie, but even you believe it after telling it. Aaron continued: Only when you believe it yourself can you deceive others.

The beautiful lady Jiange was stunned.

You must first deceive yourself before you can deceive others?

Is this a truly brilliant lie?

...Sister, I originally wanted to teach you something, but you taught me something instead. Aponya suddenly became much depressed again. She sighed slightly: In short, the egg of the snake god has many uses.

Aaron understood that the egg of the snake god was a great tonic, similar to a life-sustaining medicine.

However, this is also what the person asked me to get this time. It will be useful for that person's next plan. The beauty of Sword Song continued to focus on casting spells: Don't ask about other things, little noob, you can take everything. Is it over?

I got something good, sister, do you want to see it?

No, since you have got your things, you can leave first. Aponya said in a calm voice, I still need some time.

The rookie smiled in his heart: If you can't understand her subtext at this time, you are really not good at it.

Aaron stood up and walked to the beauty of Jiangge: But I don't want to leave so soon. I want to stay with my sister for a while.

As soon as he said this, Aponya's expression became much more relaxed, and a smile appeared again on the corner of his mouth.

Whatever you want~

In this way, the two people waited in the secret room for more than an hour.

The Sword Song Beauty's spell was ready. She pulled out the dark extraordinary dagger that had been filled with divine power from the scroll of divine power, and carefully made a gap in it along the snake god's magic protective cover soaked in purple-gray magic.

The divine shield carefully left behind by the snake god Seth finally showed a flaw, an irregular small hole.

That's it now, novice! Aponya signaled.

Yes, right now!

Aaron immediately stretched out his hand, grasped the egg of the snake god from the small hole, and held it in his hand.

The power of Slaanesh and the power of Tzeentch are activated together, and following the light of the power of chaos, the golden snake pattern on the egg of the snake god shines.

A stream of divinity was extracted from the egg of the snake god and injected directly into Aaron's body. It seemed to be aware of its destiny and strongly resisted the call of the power of chaos, rushing left and right.

But it was of no use. Six purple threads stretched out from the fully activated power of Slaanesh, binding the golden light and pulling it towards him.

The divinity from the snake god struggled hard, but in the end it was unable to resist the power of chaos and was swallowed up.

In the Six Ring Demon Realm, Slaanesh is screaming and Slaanesh is ecstatic.

Well done, well done, my love!

Aaron only felt a strong flow of energy covering his whole body.

He absorbed the serpent's divinity, and with it came the blessings of Slaanesh!

His Chaos God Warlock professional level has been improved again!

His charm attribute has improved!

Aaron can now use four-ring magic!

After upgrading the warlock professional level twice in one day, Aaron is now an elite, intermediate and upward Chaos God Warlock!

Charisma has advanced again, and all magic below the second level can be cast instantly. Even spells such as Flame of Tzeentch have been reduced to cantrips, and almost no magic power is needed to cast spells.

Is this the power of divinity?

Aaron felt that he had only digested half of the divinity in the egg of the snake god, and the other half needed time to be digested slowly.

Aaron? The sword-singing beauty next to her also felt some changes in Aaron. He seemed to be more attractive. The light and air around him began to refract because of his presence, and even the magic in the secret room began to refract. The elements are taking the initiative to get close to him.

But Aponya didn't have the energy to think too much. She quickly sorted out the chaotic magic elements in the air. The dagger that had been filled with divine power had turned into a piece of scrap metal and was placed on the ground.

In just a few seconds, the shield left by the snake god Seth closed again, but there was no longer the snake god's egg inside.

Aaron held the egg of the snake god in both hands, with a greedy expression on his face.

Yes, greed, blatant greed.

Although the weak divinity in the egg of the snake god has been absorbed by him, he can feel that there is still a very powerful divine power within it. It is a power that he cannot understand for the time being. This is the domain power of the gods, powerful and powerful. Danger.

This is a priceless treasure... No matter how bad it is, it is also a great tonic that can greatly extend the life of mortals. This kind of elixir often costs 100,000 gold coins in the country, and too many dying nobles are willing to pay for it. All costs.

Aaron-Salian? The words of the sword-singing beauty interrupted Aaron's thinking. Aponia had finished her magic at this time. She seemed a little tired. She called Aaron once but got no response, so she called Aaron a second time. She called Aaron by his full name.

Huh? Aaron finally came back to his senses. He looked at Aponya and subconsciously hugged the Snake God's Egg with both hands.

Give it to me, Aaron. The beauty of Sword Song noticed Aaron's subconscious movements, and the smile on her face gradually dissipated. On that gorgeous and elegant face, a cold, ferocious, and wild expression emerged. , Aponya slowly stretched out his hand to the sword at his waist: Hurry up! You have already got a lot, sister must get this thing.

She was ready to take action.

This is something that the person must get no matter what. If she can complete it, she will receive the supreme reward. If the task fails, she will face the most terrifying punishment.

Aaron's expression was slightly hesitant, and in his mind, the voices of Slaanesh and Tzeentch echoed one after another.

The two good brothers were telling him to take this thing down, take it down hard.

Moreover, Aaron, who has upgraded two levels in a row, has full magic power, and can activate the secret keeper transformation, is not afraid of confronting the beauty of Sword and Song at this time.

However, Aaron went against the will of his two good brothers. He suppressed his desire and slowly gave away the egg of the snake god with reluctance.

Mortals are always controlled by desires.

And I control desire!

You can't control me, Four Gods of Chaos!

A white-gold halo spread across the brain again.

Here you go, sister.

After taking the egg of the snake god, Aponya's beautiful face finally showed a smile.

Diamondback really did not disappoint.

I believe he is right!

She didn't know how many years had passed, but she finally felt a warm feeling deep in her soul.

After all, this is the only man who can understand his own sword song!

After taking the egg of the snake god, the beauty of Jiange frowned. She could feel that compared to the previous egg with strong vitality, the egg of the snake god that passed from Aaron's hand seemed to have reduced vitality. The golden color The snake pattern no longer has light flowing.

But the power of the divine domain contained in it is still there, and that is what the person wants. If it loses a little vitality, it will lose a little, which is the difference between 100 points and 90 points.

Just as they were about to say something, they heard heavy footsteps outside the door.

Earthwalker Rhodok, come to pay a visit to His Excellency, the Guardian of the Snake God!

You are not the master. The voice outside the door warned: Leave immediately, warning, warning.

A druid? Aaron asked Apogna in confusion: Is this also your arrangement?

Knowing that Aponya's expression was serious, the beauty of Sword Song slowly shook her head: I have never arranged for a druid to come to the snake-man ruins, never, novice, I am not kidding.

Aaron's expression changed.

I'm sorry, for the sake of nature, for the sake of overall system balance, and for the sake of the country's ecology, I'm offended!

The druid on the other side of the door suddenly roared like a giant bear. He struck hard at the door: Wake up, snake warriors, nature needs you!

The druid's blow directly activated the alarm device of the entire temple.

Who is disturbing my sleep!

The large pool below where the egg of the snake god was previously stored suddenly surged, and a creature was awakened. He roared because he was awakened, but soon discovered the problem.

Egg, the egg is gone?!

O great Lord Seth, your servant's sin is unpardonable.

Who is it? Who stole my lord's egg?!

I'm going to bleed you and cut your heart out to thank the snake god!

A giant creature over eight meters long emerged from under the pool amid splashing water. He stood a little taller than a locomotive, with six strong arms covered with golden snake scales. All around him were white waves, and each of the rubies inlaid on the four-ring golden crown on his head exuded the light of death.

The guardian of the Serpent Temple, the six-armed legendary snake-abomination has awakened.

Aaron and Aponia looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

Now, something bad is going to happen!
