I am a god in another world

#1217 - The grudges of the gods

Mother Earth did not answer directly, but said vaguely: "Almost!"

"Is it a dragon? Is it the work of the dragon gods?" Gavin guessed boldly.

In every war, there are vested interests, and they are often the masterminds behind the scenes.

The Age of Prosperity is also known as the Age of Dragons.

After the Meteor of Tears, tens of thousands of dragon eggs fell from the sky and quickly hatched, treating this world as their hunting ground. Both the ocean and the sky were obscured by the shadows cast by the giant dragon's wings.

It was also from that time that the dragon gods began to come into the sight of intelligent life and became the objects of worship of the scaly people, including the lizard-like intelligent creatures created by the Saruk witch.

"Don't guess blindly." Mother Earth said unhappily, "The information you have is just a fragment of what has been passed down. Many things have been destroyed in the war, including the initiators of the war. The dragon gods just took advantage of the opportunity and spread the seeds of their own race in this world.

If you use this incomplete information to speculate on history, it is like seeing the whole picture through a tube, and you can only see a certain point. Not only will it not help you, but it may even mislead you. "

Gavin was thick-skinned enough to compliment him: "Isn't there a lady here? I'm afraid the history of Toril is not more detailed than what you know."

"You have now stepped into the divine realm. Do you still simply believe that the gods are omnipotent?" Mother Earth asked, "Especially in areas that you are not good at."

"Indeed." Gavin nodded in agreement, no longer discussing historical issues, but shifting the topic back to the Night Serpent, "So, according to what the God of Prophecy, Savras, predicted, when the end of Aber-Toril comes, the Night Serpent Dendar will appear in front of everyone again through the Flame Peak.

It is not necessarily that the Dark Night Serpent will cause a devastating disaster, but it could be a sign or omen of the beginning of a disaster, representing the decline of the lady's power?"

What really makes the Dark Serpent famous is the well-known prophecy of the All-Seeing One.

"As for the so-called prophecy, you can just regard it as a possibility for the future. There are countless possibilities for the future. Even if the wrong person appears at the wrong time, new possibilities may arise and push the future in an unknown direction." Mother Earth said meaningfully.

She was obviously referring to something else, not the dark night serpent dream they were now experiencing, but that Gavin was the wrong person.

"That makes sense." Gavin remained calm in the face of the other party's meaningful expression.

The way she attacked was different from Gavin's brute force attack. It was not even magic, but direct control of dreams.

Emerald green halos appeared behind her, and when they gathered to the extreme, beams of light burst out from them, like cannonballs, landing on the dark dream pipes.

None of these emerald green light pillars is less than one meter in diameter, and they contain highly compressed life force.

Any power that reaches an extreme will not produce terrifying lethality. For example, positive energy, which is famous for its healing properties, will directly evaporate a person when it condenses to a certain level.

The same is true of these life forces, which are known for nourishing life.

It was not as simple as just smashing the Black Shadow Dream Pipe directly, but they took root and sprouted directly on it. Countless flowers, plants, fungi and mushrooms grew out of it, blooming into colorful flowers.

This is the ability of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree to purify corruption, evil and darkness. It integrates those dregs back into nature through the cycle of life.

The black shadow dream pipe where it was rooted was solidifying and cooling at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into black and red lava land.

When it turns back into earth, it will naturally lose the ability to transport lava shadows.

It was precisely because of Lord Virginia's extraordinary performance that Gavin and the others had the leisure to chat here.

When Gavin and the others looked over, the dream war was already coming to an end, and all eight black shadow dream pipes had been blocked by Lord Virginia.

However, the ancient evil creature on the other side did not give up. The endless dark red light group entered a new round of contraction, with the amplitude ten times that of the previous one.

The opponent is accumulating strength in a new round. When the next attack comes, there will not be eight black shadow dream pipes, but possibly eighty or even hundreds.

If it had happened before, they would have been panicked.

Although the Dragon Oak Dream can open up eight dream battlefields, which is not the limit, it does not have the power to open up eighty at the same time.

If there were no constraints from these dream battlefields, those lava shadows would surge into the Dragon Oak Dream like a tide. By then, Lord Virginia would be unable to cope with them, and even destroying them would cost a heavy price.

But for the ancient evil creature, that was just a drop in the bucket, and there would be even more terrifying attacks to come.

Now that Mother Earth has arrived, there is no need to worry.

Since she and the Dark Night Serpent are two sides of the same coin and their strengths are increasing and decreasing, she will definitely not sit idly by and watch the other side grow stronger.

As expected.

Mother Earth opened her hands and shouted, "Silence."

Although the contraction of the dark red light ball did not stop immediately, it was reduced by thousands of times and became barely visible.

This is her ability to control the earth's lava.

"Separation." Mother Earth clasped her hands together, and endless power of the earth surged in, rushing into the dragon oak dream and the evil lava dream, making the distance between the two sides infinitely far apart.

If the earth is thick enough, the lava will have no chance to wreak havoc.

This is true in reality and in dreams.

"Thank you for your help, ma'am." Lord Virginia had already flown close by now and bowed to Mother Earth to express his gratitude.

"No need to thank me. It is my duty to look after him." Mother Earth said without taking any credit. "Instead, you have accomplished what I have always wanted to do but have not succeeded in doing."

"Ma'am, do you mean to rescue the remaining souls imprisoned in nightmares?" Gavin reacted quickly.

If this nightmare once belonged to Mother Earth, then the one who imprisoned these residual souls was not the Dark Night Serpent, but Mother Earth.

It was not necessarily intentional on her part, but rather those painful souls imprisoned themselves in the nightmare of their own death, becoming a nightmare.

Countless nightmares combined together to form the nightmare of Mother Earth.

The dream war may sound incredible, but it is actually a battle of souls.

Whether it is a beautiful dream or a nightmare, it is supported by the soul. The former is composed of kindness and beauty, while the latter is composed of pain and despair.

We must win over the other party's soul in their dream, weakening them while strengthening ourselves.

Mother Earth would certainly be pleased to see this happen.

"Yes." Mother Earth gave an affirmative answer, "These nightmares are the source of the power of the Night Serpent. The more nightmares and souls it devours, the stronger its power will be, and the stronger its power to break free will be. The more unstable the core of Toril will be, and the greater the probability of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.

It’s just because of the special relationship between me and the Dark Night Serpent that I can’t get deep into his dreams.

I have finally supported Lady Mist and started exploring the realm of dreams. I hope she can help me deal with the Night Serpent.

I never thought that the catastrophe of the gods would come, and the Dark Night Mother secretly lured Musk and killed him with the help of Xirik. When I arrived, everything was already a foregone conclusion! "

The Mother of Dark Night she mentioned refers to the Dark Night Goddess Shar. In the creation legend, the Mother of Earth was created by the Moon Goddess Suren and the Dark Night Goddess.

Whether in doctrine or in daily behavior, Mother Earth reveres the two goddesses as mothers, which in turn proves the creation legend to the world.

"Lady Night was also involved in the murder of Leila, the goddess of illusion and deception? Why did she get involved in this?" Gavin looked surprised.

It was the first time he heard that there was a deeper conspiracy behind the murder of the Lady of the Mist. He always thought that it was Cyric who was plotting against her priesthood.

In other words, the collusion between the Goddess of Night and the God of Conspiracy Xirik did not happen after Xirik became a god.

But it started when Xirik was still just a mortal.

Thinking deeper, what role did the Goddess of Night play in the fall of Cyric?

Before he was deified, even though Xirik was not a bright and great figure, he was not as evil and crazy as he is now. After all, his two adventure companions were both in the good camp, and the starting point of their adventure was also from a kind perspective.

Such a big change in temperament in such a short period of time is certainly due to internal reasons, but external temptations cannot be ignored.

Previously, Gavin had always attributed this cause to the Shadow Lord Musk, who transformed himself into a divine weapon and lurked beside Xirik.

Now think about it, it's not that I look down on the Lord of Shadows, but he alone is probably not qualified to play such a big game.

If he himself was just a chess piece, a chess piece in the hands of the Goddess of Night, then everything could be explained.

No matter what, Musk is the son of the goddess of night. Although the relationship between mother and son is not good, broken bones are connected.

It’s better to think more than not think at all.

For example, one day, Gavin will be ready to launch a comprehensive reckoning with Marcus, the Lord of Shadows.

Let alone if the Goddess of Darkness suddenly appeared, even if she secretly tripped them up or plotted something, it would be enough for them to suffer.

The goddess of darkness is the patron saint of secrets. In Faerun, any conspiracy, strategy or tactic is considered a loud conspiracy to her.

She herself is a master at plotting conspiracies and intrigues. In front of her, even the god of conspiracy, Xirik, is a beginner. Most of the dark priesthoods in Faerun were separated from her.

Some are passive, while others are active, the latter also being part of the conspiracy.

If the priesthoods of conspiracy and strife fall back into her hands again, she will definitely become the focus, and the eyes of all the gods of Faerun will be focused on her.

Under the spotlight, no matter how sophisticated your conspiracy and intrigue are, the chances of success will be greatly reduced.

Just look at the current god of conspiracy, Xirik, and you will know that he is being targeted everywhere.

He has been a god for two and a half years, but has achieved nothing so far and has been trapped in the internal strife of the church.

On the contrary, it is better for Gavin to travel light and carve out a world of his own.

This is the difference between being hated and admired by the gods.

Now that there is a target of Xirik, the god of conspiracy, attracting the attention of all gods, the attention of the gods on the mysterious goddess of darkness will naturally be greatly reduced, and the success rate of her schemes will naturally soar.

Gavin has always been very concerned about the Goddess of Darkness, but he has never been able to find her.

Of course, this has to do with the fact that Gavin cannot openly use his secular power.

There is no way. The Goddess of Darkness is the deity in charge of secrets in Faerun. Once she takes actual action, even if it is a secret action.

It is also equivalent to telling the Goddess of Darkness and her believers.

They will turn around and target Gavin.

Sometimes doing nothing is an effective solution.

Or, like the Wallfacer, keep everything to yourself and investigate on your own.

When the secret is spread in a small area and cannot pose a threat to her, the Goddess of Darkness will not be able to detect it.

After all, her energy is limited. The secrets of the world, I dare not say infinite, are countless. If the Goddess of Darkness listens to the secrets in everyone's heart, she cannot do it even if she has thousands of clones.

But if it were revealed in front of her, it would be difficult to keep it a secret.

Since Mother Earth took the initiative to tell me this, she did not intend to hide it and answered truthfully: "It is to strangle Leila's dream priesthood in the cradle, that is, to prevent her from developing the dream priesthood and helping me deal with the Dark Night Serpent.

It also prevents the dream priests from weakening her dark night power. When night falls, all the people in the world are immersed in beautiful dreams.

Who will pray to her? Who will fear her and praise her?

"I know that the dream priesthood will attract the covetousness of some gods, but I never thought that it would take away the cake of the Lady of Night." Gavin's expression changed drastically.

Because of Lady Mist's situation, it's very likely that it will fall on Lord Virginia and the Dragon Oak Mother.

As if she had guessed Gavin's thoughts, Mother Earth comforted him, "Your situation is somewhat different from that of Lady Mist.

The followers of the Lady of the Mist are mainly humans, while your Dragon Oak Dream is a natural dream, dominated by natural fey, and the focus of development is placed in the Feywild, where the power of the Night Mother is the weakest.

Moreover, she is cautious by nature and will not act easily unless she is absolutely sure.

Otherwise, I would have reminded you at our first meeting."

Mother Earth's attitude towards the Lady of Night is very similar to Gavin's. Unless it is necessary, don't mention her easily. This is the best way to protect her.

That is the case until it has to be mentioned.

Gavin and his men have already reached out to the Dark Night Serpent.

"I still don't quite understand why the Lady of Night wants to shelter the Night Serpent? What's the connection between the two?" Mother Earth's comfort did not make Gavin feel much better.

Because they have already extended their hands to the material plane and to humans.

Once the dream network is online, it will surely enter thousands of households in the future, allowing all living beings in the world to share one dream, one network.

He could fully imagine how great an impact his plan would have on the Goddess of Night if it succeeded.

This impact is not only the fear and terror of the night, but also the secret priesthood.

Many secrets are kept due to the inconvenience of information flow.

When information begins to circulate in an efficient and high-speed manner, secrets will be greatly reduced, although we cannot say that they will disappear, and many things will become public and transparent.

This is naturally a blow to the secret keeper.

Not only the dream priesthood, but it seems that his own development and construction priesthood also stands on the opposite side of the Goddess of Darkness.

When all the lights are on, the power of the Goddess of Darkness is further weakened.

In cities that never sleep, such as Waterdeep and Baldur's Gate, the power of the Goddess of Darkness in the dark night has been weakened to the extreme, far less than the role of the priesthood of keeping secrets.

According to the goddess's temperament, she would never sit idly by and watch this situation happen.

Mother Earth sighed and said, "Speaking of this matter, we have to repeat the old story, tracing it back to the struggle between light and darkness.

The Dark Night Mother has always wanted to restore the entire world to its original state. The best way to do this is to return the planet Toril to eternal silence.

The Night Serpent was her tool. It was she who planted the evil seeds of destruction into my nightmares, giving birth to this ancient evil."

"The Goddess of Darkness! The Giant Serpent of Darkness! The Nightmare Devourer! I should have thought of it earlier!" Gavin finally connected everything together.

In this world, nothing is isolated.

Including these ancient evil creatures, their origins can be traced back to the gods, especially those ancient gods, which are even more complicated and the relationships are extremely complex, with love and hate completely intertwined.

Lord Virginia said at the right time: "Madam, we are willing to help you solve your problems, purify this nightmare, suppress and weaken this ancient evil, and contribute our own strength to maintaining the stability of this world."

Gavin listened nearby and secretly gave a thumbs up.

She is worthy of being the woman I trained myself. Not only does she cooperate well with me in fighting, but she also speaks beautifully.

He never mentioned the matter of the Lady of Night, nor did he mention the difficulty of the matter. He completely stood on the side of Mother Earth and justice.

But when they really got involved in this matter, they fought with the ancient evil creature, the Dark Night Serpent, in their dreams.

Can Mother Earth just sit back and do nothing?

The Lady of Night is a powerful divine force, as is Mother Earth.

Last time, Mother Earth had already fallen into trouble with Lady Mist, and it was impossible for her to fall into the same puddle twice.

Mother Earth couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy. She had said so much, just waiting for this sentence. She nodded and said, "It's great that you have this intention, but you must not act rashly like you did this time.

The power and difficulty of the ancient evil creatures are far beyond your imagination.

Don’t say that you are only demigods now. Even if you have forged your soul to become a true god, once you are invaded by its evil will, it is very likely to corrode you silently from within. " (End of this chapter)
