Surviving the Fourth Calamity

Chapter 2367: Hill is frightened

In fact, anyone with a little bit of common sense can guess what the undead will do in the end.

The point is, Amaunator and the half-Bane behind Their aren't worth the effort to make the great gods behind the Undead give in... and that's not even counting Corellon.

But it was Bane who found a solution first and quickly sold Talona who had just approached him, which made Hill couldn't help but marvel.

Logically speaking, if Amaunator knew a little about the ways of the world, and was helped by Lansendal in this world, and even if all the favors were offset by his stupid subordinates, he could still talk to the Valar. He would be the first person to have the opportunity to build a relationship with the undead.

Even if the undead won't help him, at least try not to hold him back too much, right?
Hill didn't know what Lansendel was thinking when he persuaded Amaunator, but he knew very well that the time when AO came in person was Amaunator's last chance.

If he really had a little bit of common sense at that time, and came to Shar to lower his head and chat with the undead... then under AO's nose, even if Shar had a lot of ulterior motives, she would not act too excessively.

Although she was not necessarily afraid of AO, she certainly did not want AO to expose her shortcomings in this place and in front of these people.

There is a big difference between some things that everyone knows by default and those that are revealed and discussed openly.

AO would not be so stupid as to let the undead brought by Shar's lover support Amaunator. He just wanted to build some friendship and prevent them from doing bad things. Shar could still tolerate this kind of small thoughts.

However, Bane was fighting with William in tacit understanding, hinting at his bottom line, and offering Talona, ​​who could make Shar even more angry... and Amaunator still didn't move at all.

Sometimes Hill couldn't help but wonder if Amaunator had any powerful backup plan... But after thinking about it, he still had no idea.

He couldn't even get the support of the vaguely existing loose alliance of the true gods of light from various worlds.

Just like the alliance between the sea and the sky, the pure Sun God and the God of Light can actually meet in a sea of ​​​​light clouds that only they can reach.

Of course, Hill also knew that his heritage was rather complicated, and he himself couldn't even tell where he got this mark from, so he never said anything related to it...even though he suspected that Lansendel was also in the Alliance of Light.

Anyway, Selûne is absolutely not qualified. Even though she is the original light, she cannot bring warmth to the world.

It was very difficult for Lansendal to enter there. He was qualified only because he was the only one in Toril.

But the sun god of Trahil has always been qualified.

Therefore, the sun blessing he gave to Hill could even override those messy BUFFs of the sun god Toril.

This is also the reason why the sun and light gods chose to intersect in the Sea of ​​Light Clouds... Although they will not and cannot unite to do anything or deal with anyone, at least their subordinates whom they have blessed can have enough confidence and support when traveling in the multiverse.

Not all priests or voters of gods can exert power that is almost the same as in this world after leaving the world they control.

Take Talona, ​​for example. He is definitely not as weak as he is now... but Talona can only allow believers who leave Toril to have the power of three-ring magic.

What's the use?

He’s OK at dealing with small guys, but when it comes to the critical moment, who can he deal with?

Bane is not much better, but as a chosen one of the Zhentarim, he has relatively strong power himself, and divine power is only an aid rather than his only reliance, so he can be more calm.

If you want believers to be able to walk freely in the multiverse, even if they have powerful divine powers, they have to set up several anchor points outside this world.

This anchor point may not necessarily be his own force, but it must be a force that recognizes him and allows his name to appear in its own field.

Toril's powerful divine power allows his subordinates like Bane to live a better life outside because Bane's name and story are spread throughout the multiverse.

Whether good or bad, when he is mentioned, no one will go unnoticed.

But this only allows his subordinates to travel with divine arts below the 7th level.

It is absolutely impossible to use the Nine Rings Magic whenever you want, like Jos did.

A fishing net without a lead sinker as an anchor can only float loosely on the sea, and may even get tangled up in a ball. Only with a heavy enough lead sinker can you catch big fish in the deep sea.

Hill guessed that Lansendel was also a member of the alliance only after seeing Jos's almost undiminished strength.

Moreover, this discovery also provided a clearer explanation for his first meeting with Lansendel, which had always puzzled him.

The reason why the Sun Peacock was attracted to the oil painting and even wanted to take it away was because he had known the Sun God Trahil for a long time.

For these gods of light, the sea of ​​light clouds that allowed them to meet actually existed in the deepest part of all of their subconscious minds. Even if they met, no one in the outside world would know about it.

After knowing this, Hill became more sincere towards Lansendel than before. It was not because he knew that Lansendel would treat him well for the sake of the Sun God Trasil.

Instead, all the doubts in the past have been resolved... Otherwise, Hill, who had always been suspicious of Lansendel's excessive enthusiasm when they met, would never have let go of his guard and considered any friendship issues.

The moment Jos appeared was the beginning of Hill's attitude changing.

Hill was still very happy that he had established a true friendship with Lansendel after leaving Toril.

But even though he felt that he had a certain understanding of the gods of Toril, Hill still didn't understand what supported Amaunator to be so arrogant... when he was sure that the three Greek gods were taken to Toril by AO.

Although the Greek pantheon fell on bad luck very early and had little support in Toril, in other worlds, the name of Apollo, the god of the sun, was still quite famous.

After all, a handsome and dazzling young man will always get some attention.

Under the premise that Toril has a relatively negative impression of Amaunator, and mortals basically don’t know his name... now there is no crazy Lansendar to pave the way for him... If Amaunator and Apollo stand together for people to choose, who will choose Amaunator?
Hill was really confused.

Then he understood from William's roundabout questioning that he and Shar probably hadn't figured it out either, and even asked Bane about it.

After all, Bane is the one who stands in Amaunator's way next time.

Then, these two guys are both very extreme and the type who do things without leaving any room for compromise.

Regardless of whether they are willing to stand at the two ends of the battlefield or not, now that they are about to fight face to face, they will not consider any necessity and will only want the other side to die without a burial place and never be resurrected.

Therefore, the secrets that they could not guess might not be unknown to Bane.

Especially since this guy really had a lot of friends back then… Although he has destroyed most of those relationships himself, he is sure that there are still some of his old friends in some corner.

Not to mention, if we only consider popularity and have to choose between Bane and Amaunator, the Toril universe, as well as the gods and powerful beings related to it, would probably prefer Bane.

Otherwise, why do so many people want to watch the Road of Destiny this time?
That is, no one thinks that they will end up in this situation, so everyone wants to wait and see which idiot and unlucky person will be implicated.

Zhentarim was silent for only half a minute, and then he immediately answered: "Although Amaunator is the purest god, he appeared because of the Eternal Fire.

The eternal fire is the ultimate manifestation of the fire element.

Therefore, if he abandons all that his ministry has given him, Amaunator can return to being a fire elemental creature himself."

Hill felt that his expression was probably weirder than William's on the giant screen.

This guy was able to think of the many undead taking pictures nearby, and he controlled himself in time before his handsome face was about to be deformed, and instantly turned into an expressionless face.

Hill, on the other hand, had clearly lost control.

Is Amaunator seriously ill?

Which god has prepared a way out for himself by simply transforming into an elemental creature?

Even though he could directly transform into an elemental ruler and become immortal because of the Eternal Fire and the strength of his soul, but...

No, how could he not bring harm to the elemental world?
Thinking of this, Hill felt that his spiritual sea was trembling.

Considering Kasusu's bad character, if he really accepts the transformation of his old friend, he must be an ambitious elemental lord. There can only be one reason... He is planning to make things incompatible again.

The elemental world is boundless, and the water element and the fire element each have their own dimensional space, so there is originally no intersection between them.

But there are always many elemental creatures who want to live in the mixed lower plane... Generally, those who prefer to deal with people from the main material plane and will respond to their calls are basically the more curious elemental creatures living here.

For example, most of Hill's friends live there.

Because the elements inhabit the same plane, they are bound to conflict.

But their characters are not overly competitive, so most of the problems can be solved by fighting while holding a meeting.

The most important thing is that the elemental lords here are unlikely to listen to the main god of the pantheon.

No matter which department, they all chose freedom.

Those so-called elemental gods don't care much about this, except Kasusu.
