The Lord of Shadows was a confident and scheming God. He liked to plan all kinds of secret plots, although his plans could easily put himself in danger. The Lord of Shadows was alert and cold. He never lost control of his emotions, and his appearance was always changing. Therefore, no one knew his true face.
Søren was now facing his true body. Usually, in the eyes of the believers and the outside world, the Lord of Shadows was always changing.
Many people were afraid of the Church of the Lord of Shadows, not only because of its cruelty, but also because of its hobby of stealing and lurking in the shadows. Most outsiders thought that the Church of the Lord of Shadows was just a thief's union organized in the name of religion. [Note: This is very true.]
The priests of the Lord of Shadows often worked as assassins, bards, divine power seekers, thieves, shadow sorcerers, shadow dancers, and so on.
Speaking of which …
The Lord of Shadows was also a very unlucky God.
This was because his predecessor had offended the Chaos Demon Dog, Kozerv. Although the original God of Thieves, Max, had fallen, the Lord of Shadows still inherited this hatred. Furthermore, the Lady of the Night was always eyeing him covetously. Only God knew how much Lady Shar wanted to take over the [Shadow] priesthood, so he had been hiding ever since he became a god, not daring to show his true face. The Lord of Shadows was a very rich God, but his interpersonal relationship was not very good. He had always been hostile to the Goddess of Wealth.
"Is that all?"
Facing Søren and the others surrounding him, a sarcastic smile appeared on the Lord of Shadows' face. Then he slowly pulled out a long sword.
Buzz!
The long sword trembled violently the moment it came out of the sheath. The Lord of Shadows did not seem to think of this, and his expression was quite strange.
As for Søren's reaction, it was much more intense!
His expression changed almost instantly. His expression seemed to be a little excited and fanatical. At the same time, his face was slightly pale at first, and then it became a strange red color.
"Godslayer?!!!"
Søren almost instantly recognized the weapon because he had tried to find it before, but it was after the Avatar Crisis.
Godslayer?!
Upon hearing Søren's words, Princess Royal's expression changed immediately. She immediately cast several defensive spells on herself.
However, Eugene, the Divine Ascender, was a little slow in reacting. The name of the godslayer was a little scary, but Eugene was not knowledgeable enough to understand the significance of the sword, so he could only remain vigilant.
"Eh?"
Seeing Søren's shocked expression, the Shadow Lord said with a hint of mockery, "I didn't expect you to recognize this sword."
Of course they knew each other.
How could Søren not recognize the God-Slaying Sword? After all, the sword had a lot to do with him.
The story had to start from the first Avatar Crisis.
A long time ago, there was a large-scale Avatar Crisis in the material plane. At that time, many gods also fell to the mortal world for some reason. One of the masterminds was the core of the gods in the evil camp at that time, which was the original [Three Gods of Death]. The former god of the Shadow Lord, who was known as the God of Thieves at that time, turned himself into a divine weapon in order to avoid the danger of the Avatar Crisis.
That was the legendary [Godslayer]!
This sword fell into the hands of Cyric, who was still a mortal at that time. That was the [God of Murder] who was now sealed because of his madness.
Cyric, who was still a mortal at that time, used this sword to kill Baal, one of the [Three Gods of Death]. He was the origin of all the [Godslayer]. Not only Søren's bloodline power, but as early as the end of the last Time of Troubles, Baal's bloodline had set off a huge storm in the material plane. In the end, it even forced the gods in the upper plane to make a judgment. In a way, the bloodline of the [Godslayer] started because of this [Godslayer]. Baal foresaw his own death at that time, so so many [Godslayer] were born.
After that, the God of Thieves, Mexor, betrayed the Goddess of Shadows, Lila, to Cyric, so that the [God of Murder] could obtain the clergy of [Shadows]. But later, the God of Thieves went further and further on the road of seeking death. He became the victim of the [God of Murder]'s madness. He also read the book that could be called a taboo, and finally lost the clergy of [Conspiracy].
Of course, what was worse was that Mexor later provoked the Chaos Demonic Hound, Kozerv.
If it weren't for this series of events, perhaps the current Shadow Lord wouldn't have risen. It was because the God of Thieves in the past was too reckless.
In the end, the clergy was divided into two, and the Shadow Lord was born.
…
"I didn't expect the Godslayer to be in your hands."
Søren's expression was unprecedentedly serious, and he said slowly, "It seems that the death of the previous God of Thieves was not that simple!"
The Godslayer was definitely not a fake.
As a Son of Murder, Søren could feel the power on it. This divine weapon had the divine power of slaughter. When the God of Murder used this sword to kill Baal, the divine weapon that the God of Thieves turned into also gained a lot of benefits.
Other things could be deceived, but the power of the bloodline of slaughter could not be deceived.
"You mean this?"
The Shadow Lord gently waved the weapon in his hand, and a powerful divine power immediately burst out. He smiled contemptuously and said, "Mexor's soul has been imprisoned by me!"
"Since he likes to become a weapon so much, I might as well refine him into a divine weapon forever."
It was no wonder that the Lady of Night could hold back for so long.
The Godslayer even killed Baal, who was one of the [Three Gods of Death]. If this weapon could kill the Three Gods of Death, it could also kill some powerful existences.
For an ancient deity like the Lady of Night, any action that risked her life was not worth it.
"Be careful of this weapon."
Søren's voice rang in the minds of the other two. He said slowly, "The Godslayer once killed the God of Murder, Baal. I don't know how much power this divine weapon still retains."
"But you guys still have to be careful in the upcoming battle!"
A mistake.
Søren realized that he had made a small mistake. Although he did not guess the Shadow Lord's strength wrongly, he did not expect a weapon like the Godslayer to still exist in the multiverse.
There was definitely a problem with the fall of the previous God of Thieves, Mexor. Logically speaking, the Godslayer should have disappeared with him.
But now was not the time to think so much.
Although Søren did not expect this, he was not completely without confidence. This was because he had made other preparations from the very beginning.
In his extradimensional space, there was another divine weapon that could fight against the Godslayer!
Although.
Søren felt that it was quite difficult to fight with this weapon.
