But Dante's eyes stared closely at the woman on the altar in front of him, and he kept muttering to himself,
"Lucia, Lucia …"
Then after a few seconds, Dante knelt directly on the ground and covered his face with both hands.
Blood gushed out from the gaps between Dante's fingers.
These were obviously his tears of blood!!
The feelings that had been suppressed for thousands of years instantly burst out, but he couldn't vent them out to his heart's content. The only thing Dante could do was to hurt himself!
After his emotions calmed down for a while, Fang Linyan said,
"I don't want to lie to you. This Lucia is not your Lucia in a strict sense."
Dante raised his head suddenly, and his lips trembled,
"No! No, she is so similar!! "
From his trembling voice, there was even a trace of fear!
Fang Linyan came to him, squatted down, then looked into his eyes and said seriously, "I carefully investigated your past experiences.
"I've carefully investigated your previous experiences. Lucia was killed by the Pope's Great Chant. Her soul and body have been reduced to ashes, and this Pope Gregory III was an important time node in that world."
"If you want to change the historical events that he has participated in, you have to pay a huge price! Therefore, I tried my best to use the Pot of Athena, the holy object of the Goddess, to collect a trace of her remnant soul, and then use it as the core to recreate Lucia. "
"Do you understand? The woman in front of you now is actually equivalent to another person cultivated with a little incomplete source of Lucia. To be precise, it is more appropriate to use Lucia's daughter, Lucia's twin sister!"
"Because of this, you can definitely feel that some parts of her may make you feel familiar, and some parts are very strange to you!"
Speaking of this, Fang Linyan was a little anxious …
(Why haven't you f * cking reacted yet? I can't make it up anymore!)
In fact, Fang Linyan's lie this time was the essence of "9 shallow and 1 deep". No, it was obviously the essence of "9 true and 1 false". That was, 9 true sentences mixed with 1 false sentence, which was impossible to guard against.
Of course, the highest level of lying was to use ten truthful sentences to weave a lie. Only then would it be truly invulnerable.
The only lie in Fang Linyan's statement was that the woman in front of him was created with a trace of Lucia's remnant soul! He had discussed this carefully with the high priest and felt that the chances of this lie being seen through were not zero, but the probability was extremely low.
Only a powerful deity like Hades, who specialized in undead creatures, would be able to distinguish between the truth and the lies! Although Dante was unruly and powerful, he was still a demon from hell. It was almost impossible for him to know the secrets of the soul.
After a long while … Dante let out a long sigh of frustration. His eyes stared blankly at "Lucia" on the altar.
"I got it. Let me see her again."
After about 10 minutes, Fang Linyan said,
"I'm sorry, but bringing you into the Divine Kingdom will consume the Goddess' divine power. Your tour will end here. Say goodbye to her."
Dante looked greedily at Lucia, who was lying on the ground. He maintained his posture and refused to leave.
However, Fang Linyan had already grasped his weakness and said indifferently,
"If Lucia wants to be resurrected, it will consume a lot of the Goddess' divine power. You are a Son of Purgatory and are incompatible with the environment here. Standing here will consume the Goddess' divine power. Do you want the Goddess to interrupt her resurrection process in anger?"
As soon as he said this, Dante immediately stood up and left, but he kept turning his head to look over. Seeing this scene, Fang Linyan also breathed a sigh of relief. The words "the outcome is set" appeared in his heart.
After Dante was locked in the prison again, Fang Linyan said to him, "This time, Lucia was able to resurrect Lucia.
"This time, Lucia was resurrected by the Goddess because of my great efforts. I've been mediating for a long time, but I still encountered a lot of resistance. If you want the resurrection ceremony to continue, then you must make a sacrifice."
Dante said indifferently,
"Do you want me to give up my spiritual resistance? For her, I'm willing to sacrifice myself and hand over my origin. "
Fang Linyan smiled and said, "It's not that serious.
"It's not that serious. I just need to demonize Cain's origin power."
Dante nodded slowly.
As Dante nodded, in another light shield, the already unconscious demonized Cain was entangled by a large number of olive tree roots, and then slowly dragged into the ground. He was obviously used as fertilizer by the Goddess.
Fang Linyan looked at Dante and said solemnly, "I once loved a woman before.
"I once loved a woman too. Although my love wasn't as deep as yours, I can empathize with your mentality."
"This time, you are very cooperative with me, so I will try my best to let you and Lucia be together again."
Dante suddenly raised his head, and there seemed to be flames burning in his eyes!
"Is what you said true?"
Fang Linyan said,
"I don't like to say unrealistic words, but so far, I have taken care of your interests in the deal between us, right?"
"Your thousand-year wish finally has a little possibility of being realized, right?"
Dante was stupefied. Only when Fang Linyan was about to leave did he nod slightly.
Fang Linyan said,
"So, I hope you can trust me a little more next — if you still want to be with Lucia."
***
After Fang Linyan successfully persuaded Dante to release the demonized Cain's soul this time, the Goddess had gained some benefits.
To be specific, if the Goddess's divine power was 100 units before Fang Linyan gave the Divine Melody to her, then in order to activate the Divine Melody and resurrect Prometheus, the Goddess's divine power had dropped to 70 units at the lowest point.
However, after absorbing the origin of the demonic rock giant, the Goddess's divine power almost rose to 95 units, and she also successfully harvested a subordinate god, Yacinthus!
At this time, after absorbing the origin of demonized Cain, the Goddess's divine power could be increased to about 130 units.
Not only that, her previous plan could also be successfully achieved — that was to use the origin of demonized Cain to mix with the feather of Valkyrie obtained by the high priest to create the Inquisitor of the Heresy Court according to the original plan.
However, the Divine Melody that had gone out of control was like a hot potato to Athena. She was unable to give up on the great temptation that came with the Divine Melody, but she was also unable to demonize Dante. She felt like a mouse trying to pull a turtle with its tail between its legs.
In the end, she could only continue to rely on Fang Linyan's lobbying.
Now the Goddess and Fang Linyan were also closely related, and Fang Linyan had a group of teammates around him to give advice. More importantly, Fang Linyan now understood Dante's mentality thoroughly!
This guy had been lonely for thousands of years, and his longing for Lucia had reached the point of morbidity. So even if Fang Linyan told him that the resurrected Goddess was only a substitute for Lucia, Dante still rushed to her at this time!
His behavior was probably similar to the mentality of marrying a sister-in-law after losing his wife.
Fang Linyan saw Dante again. After some persuasion, Dante was silent for a while, then nodded.
This time, Fang Linyan also made a bold move. He directly brought Dante out of the real world outside the God's Kingdom, and then asked the Goddess to release the shackles on him. At this time, even Dante himself was a little surprised.
Looking at the steaming coffee, the blue sky, white clouds, and the sparkling sea in front of him, Dante was a little absent-minded for a while. This was not that he was bewitched by the beautiful scenery, but he had never expected to regain his freedom one day!
At this time, Fang Linyan still understood Dante's mentality very well. He smiled at him, then patted him on the shoulder and said,
"Everything will be fine. Let's slowly start to build trust."
Then, Fang Linyan pointed to the Napoleon pastry in front of him and said,
"Do you want to try it? It tastes very good. "
Dante glanced at it and shook his head slightly, but after a few seconds, he added, "I am no longer human.
"I'm no longer human. I have the Purgatory Constitution. I can't taste human food anymore."
Fang Linyan smiled and said,
"It doesn't matter. If you still want to be a human, you can ask the Goddess to make a body for you."
"Well, this time, I'm here to ask for your help. Of course, this matter is also very important to Lucia."
Dante immediately said,
"Say it!"
Fang Linyan said,
"In this world, although it is the age of chaos, there is also more than one god."
"The Goddess's church has developed to the present, and it has begun to attract the wind. There is an evil god from Japan who sent his subordinates to deal with us."
"The subordinates he sent are a bit difficult to deal with. If the Goddess is distracted, she will definitely waste a lot of divine power."
"Not only that, the latest information we got shows that the subordinate sent is called Crow Tengu. His origin is also very useful to the Goddess. To put it bluntly, it can speed up Lucia's resurrection process a lot."
"So, if you can kill this guy, I can plead with the Goddess to let you and Lucia be alone for half a day. If you can successfully return, Lucia's consciousness will be restored at that time. She can also do some basic actions like nodding and shaking her head, but I don't know if you are willing to do it?"
Dante said indifferently,
"Where is Crow Tengu?"
Fang Linyan handed Dante a photo, then patted Dante on the shoulder and said,
"I will arrange for someone to send you to find him. Of course, I will also go with you. You don't have to worry about anything along the way. You just need to make a move when the time comes."
Dante was stunned for a while, then nodded slowly.
In fact, Fang Linyan lied again here. Crow Tengu actually didn't mean to trouble the Goddess. This guy belonged to the demon outside Oda Nobunaga's system.
The reason why he appeared in the sight of the Goddess was entirely that Crow Tengu was actually the enemy of Gozhi-kun. The 2 would fight every few days, but recently, why did Gozhi-kun suddenly stop?
Therefore, Crow Tengu, who was warlike and suspicious by nature, began to track down the whereabouts of Gozhi-kun to see if this old opponent was hiding to plot against him.
As a result, Crow Tengu discovered one thing when he was tracking down. That was, Gozhi-kun seemed to have left Japan and began to develop in the overseas Nasu Island!
So he tracked Gozhi-kun's footsteps to overseas. Although he didn't find any trace of this guy, he unexpectedly found that this place was still a blank land, which was suitable for developing his believers!
Therefore, Crow Tengu temporarily gave up the intention of tracking his old enemy and came directly to this fertile land to develop believers.
Needless to say, the spy that the Goddess had left behind here soon heard of some bizarre things and confirmed that the cult was reviving, so he directly reported it to the higher-ups.
After receiving the report, because the high priest Terito Goliath was going to France to preside over the excavation of the ruins, this matter was temporarily delayed. If Fang Linyan didn't come this time to present the "Divine Comedy", then the Goddess would ask him to go against Crow Tengu.
This time, Fang Linyan proposed the plan of "driving the tiger to devour the wolf", which was also the conclusion after some discussion.
Crow Tengu and Gozhi-kun could become old enemies, which was enough to show that the strength of the 2 was on the same level.
After fighting with the Demonized Dante, Fang Linyan could clearly and intuitively realize the strength of this guy. It could be said that he defeated Crow Tengu easily.
In this case, as long as he planned a little, it was not too difficult to kill Crow Tengu.
However, the premise to achieve all this was that Dante was willing to fully cooperate with him. The most troublesome thing was that Dante still refused to communicate with anyone except Fang Linyan.
According to the analysis of psychologists, this was because of Dante's proud personality. He would only recognize people who had defeated him.
This meant that Fang Linyan must preside over this series of things! The problem was that Fang Linyan would soon re-enter the space and start the adventure of the next world, so time was very tight at this time!
Helplessly, this kind of thing was beyond Fang Linyan's ability. There was no other way!
Time was like cleavage, there would always be cleavage.
The goddess also invested a lot in him. Not only did she send Evelina to give him a big red packet, but she also took out a big move like "Athena's Exclamation" to hang in front of him. Fang Linyan had no choice but to do his best, work hard, and work hard without complaint.
There was no need to say more. The Goddess directly arranged a charter flight to South Korea, then boarded a ship at the Tsushima Strait and headed to Nasu Island.
The series of arrangements in advance, such as luring Crow Tengu into the ambush, preventing the other party from escaping, and so on, were all handled by Fang Linyan. Another chief priest, Iranya, assisted by the side.
It was worth mentioning that Iranya's type was the kind of amiable auntie next door (the kind in her fifties). She should be the benefit specially selected by the high priest for Fang Linyan …
Needless to say, Fang Linyan, who was on the side, didn't even sweat. He just watched Crow Tengu being played to death by Dante!
This time, Dante didn't even enter the Demonized Form. In the human form, he killed everyone with a spear in his left hand and a sword in his right hand. Crow Tengu used a variety of evil spells, but he was still defeated in front of him.
After this battle, Fang Linyan was also a little curious. He couldn't help but ask Dante,
"Why didn't you fight me in your human form at that time? I think the combat power of your human form is also very amazing? "
Dante was silent for a long time. It could be seen that if other people asked him this question, he would definitely ignore it directly, but he still had to give face to Fang Linyan, so after a while, he said concisely,
"The Demonized Form is more tenacious, and if you fight in the God's Kingdom, the gods can modify the laws of physics."
Fang Linyan only understood half of his answer at first. It was understandable that the Demonized Form was more durable, but what did the second half have to do with not using the human form?
In the end, Vulture gave the answer after knowing this. If Dante used firearms to attack in the human form, the bullets must follow the laws of physics.
However, if the Goddess directly modified the laws of physics in the God's Kingdom, for example, the long-range physical attack could only hit 5 meters away, or the limit speed of long-range physical attack was 5 meters per second.
In this way, the firearms would be completely useless!
This kind of modification of the laws of physics seemed a bit inconceivable, but in most worlds, the speed of light was the limit speed, and it was also one of the laws of physics. It was the same as the limit speed of long-range physical attack being 5 meters per second.
In Fang Linyan's original world, the speed of light = 321,170 kilometers per second; in Vulture's original world, the speed of light = 287,701 kilometers per second; but in Max's original world, the speed of light = 324,120 kilometers per second!
At first, this discovery also surprised them, but later, they got used to it after seeing more similar things.
Just when Dante was chatting with Fang Linyan, Elanya had already commanded the 4 priests to set up an ancient magic circle around them. A group of fanatics began to help, and the construction of the magic circle was completed quickly.
In the center of the ancient magic circle, there was the wreckage of the killed Crow Tengu. Its soul was sucked into a strangely shaped pottery pot with a thin neck. The surface of the pottery pot was densely covered with divine runes written by Athena herself.
This was the famous Pot of Athena! Legend had it that the Pot of Athena made of clay mixed with the blood of the Goddess could even imprison a powerful god like Poseidon!
At this time, although this Pot of Athena was only a substitute, it was enough to imprison Crow Tengu.
Immediately afterward, under the leadership of Elanya, the believers of the Goddess began to chant. An illusion of a giant coiled snake appeared above the ancient magic circle. It was the snake incarnation of Athena.
As the chanting progressed, Elanya cut her wrist with a white bone dagger, and then a lot of blood flowed into the ancient magic circle.
