Abyss Domination

Fighting against the god of hunting - Mara is not easy.

There are no allies for no reason in this world. With the water of life in Sauron's hands, he is a little more sure of asking the princess to take action. But all the premise still depends on his next plan, in order to deal with the hunting god, he has prepared a lot of things. Even, it also includes things that have to pay some price.

before actually implementing the plan.

Sauron still has one very important thing to do, which is to go to the wilderness Gobi to meet some people.

The attitude of these people is the key to Sauron's next plans. If they are willing to help Sauron, then Sauron does not need to activate the backup plan, but if they are unwilling to help Sauron, then Sauron can only rely on the backup plan. Deal with the god of hunting - Mara.

These people are paladins!

Sauron has always had a complicated attitude towards paladins.

As a member of the lawful camp, he admired the behavior of the paladins for maintaining order, but because of the opposites of good and evil, Sauron had a fierce conflict with the paladins in terms of the way of doing things and the way of doing things.

for such a long time.

Sauron has always avoided any obvious conflicts with the paladin, and he has even favored the other side for help several times.

For example, where is the core material of the Holy Avengers!

And when fighting against the vampire god son, although Sauron's purpose was to solve a dangerous enemy once and for all, it is undeniable that he also saved the lives of those paladins.

On this trip, Sauron went to the Gobi desert to meet them. From here, he could quickly reach their place of practice through the elf forest and along the eastern trade route. Sauron needs to meet them, test the attitude of these paladins towards him, and then consider making a small request.

This small request is to borrow [Holy Avenger]!

That's right.

Sauron wants to use the power of [Holy Avenger] to get rid of the god of hunting-Mara!

As one of the most powerful weapons on the material plane, the Holy Avenger completely crushed all of Sauron's equipment in terms of abilities in all aspects.

But this weapon is not something he can possess.

Anyone who is not a paladin possesses this weapon. Then it will lead to endless troubles!

Sauron is able to use the Holy Avenger.

Although this process is a bit painful, and the damage to the spirit is also very serious, but it is undeniable that relying on the power of [Universal Skilled Hand], Sauron can use the Holy Avenger to support a battle.

The most powerful weapon in the Material Plane has already proven its power against the Vampire God Son!

so. When deciding to deal with Mara, the god of hunting, the image of this weapon immediately popped up in Sauron's mind. If he could fight with the Holy Avenger, Sauron's chances of winning would be increased by at least 20%. This weapon could be said to have a unique advantage against the [Chaotic Evil] camp's God of Hunting-Mara. Its powerful lethality combined with Sauron's explosive ability, if it can get the help of other powerful people, it may even regain its crushing advantage in the previous battle.

Holy Avenger in hand. Sauron's reservation plan can be cut in half.

Even, he may not need to try his best to provoke a conflict between the Hunting God and other gods, as long as he avoids being besieged by the followers of the Hunting Church and finds an opportunity to kill the Hunting God head-on.

but!

Sauron couldn't figure out the paladin's attitude towards him, and he couldn't be sure whether they were willing to lend him this most important sacred object. So he secretly provoked the conflict between the Church of Hunting and the Church of Suffering in advance.

………………

The wind and sand filled the sky.

Sauron's figure appeared outside a Gobi Desert.

Because the saint catastrophe is coming, the route to the eastern country has become very dangerous, and the terrible climate change has buried many passing businessmen, so there are not many people passing through the vicinity of the death desert for the time being.

The paladin's secret base cannot be easily approached.

In case someone with a brain twitch throws a 'detection camp' spell to Sauron. Then the next thing is very embarrassing.

Do it?

Do you still want to borrow the Holy Avenger?

Don't do it?

What if the opponent insists on attacking Sauron, an evil guy?

so.

The wisest choice is to find someone Sauron has met before. This avoids direct conflicts. Paladins also know how to be polite. If there is such a person who has been in contact with him in advance, other paladins should not cast spells such as detecting alignments on Sauron. From the perspective of flexibility, these paladins living in seclusion near the Gobi are much easier to get along with than those of the Radiance Church.

Those are the eyes that can't tolerate sand at all!

who?

The most ideal target is naturally the [Warden Officer] Your Excellency. He has a high status within the paladin organization.

But Sauron was not familiar with him, so his first target should be the young paladin he had seen in the City of Fortune. If he can connect with the Holy Avenger through him, and then find a way or even pay some price to lend the weapon, then the next thing will be much easier.

Find someone!

This is a bit of a tricky question.

However, the manpower that Sauron can mobilize is no longer what it used to be, and he quickly learned about the movements of those paladins.

Arendelle.

Now that they have obtained the important parts of the Holy Avenger, the most important thing for the paladins at present is naturally to repair this weapon. But there are very few people in the entire material plane who can repair this weapon, one of the most powerful artifacts in the material plane, this is not a joke. Even the most skilled forging masters in the human kingdom, they can't repair even the slightest bit of the Holy Avenger. Because this weapon is a divine weapon, it has residual powerful divine power on it.

In other words, it is only possible to repair this weapon if it reaches the level where it can use divine power.

Look at the entire material plane.

There are not many people who can do this. Not only must they be able to use divine power, but they must also have extremely high attainments in magic weapons. There are only a few people who can be found with just a few fingers.

Princess of Arendelle!

There is no doubt that the eldest princess is very powerful as a magician of the gods, and she is also the only person in the whole north who can easily mobilize divine power.

Secondly, as a spellcaster above high-level legend, the eldest princess has a very high-level understanding of alchemy and enchantment.

The part found in the Underdark is the Eye of Tyr.

This thing is also an artifact-level material, and it can't just be inlaid on it casually. The complicated process involved and the price it needs to pay are enough to make anyone think twice. To restore an incomplete artifact to its peak state, just thinking about the amount of divine power that needs to be consumed can make Sauron's tooth ache.

so.

Unsurprisingly, the paladins have not made any progress in repairing the Holy Avengers, because the princess of Arendelle is not willing to spend her precious divine power to help them.

So things have dragged on until now.
