"Your enemy?" Hearing the last sentence, Sui Xiong's curiosity was ignited, and he hurriedly asked, "How did he change from your chosen one to your enemy? Since he's your enemy, why didn't you kill him and instead recommended him to me? "
Morani was silent for a while, then explained the cause and effect of the matter with a bitter smile.
A long, long time ago — no, actually it wasn't that long ago — there was an outstanding warrior named Reynold among the "lion men" of the Orcs.
The creator of the Orcs had long fallen in the war with the Human God System, so the faith of this tribe was more scattered, and there were people who believed in everyone. Reynold believed in the patron saint of heavy warriors, "Steel Lion" Morani.
"Huh? Was that your previous priesthood? "Sui Xiong asked curiously.
"I just took up this position. Back then, my priesthood was heavy warrior and forging," Morani said. "But my achievements in the forging priesthood were very low, so my main job was this."
"Gods have a main job and a side job?"
"If you work in a large God System, you will often have."
Morani continued to recall after answering Sui Xiong's question.
Reynold was a person so outstanding that he could be called a genius. He became a strong person at a young age, and without much effort, he entered the Legendary Realm, which was beyond the reach of ordinary people. According to the traditions of the Orcs, he naturally joined the army and fought at the frontline against the Eagle Kingdom. He was as famous as "Iron Teeth" Ilo. One of them was good at defense, and the other was good at offense. When the two of them worked together, they even defeated the king of the Eagle Kingdom who carried the three Eagle artifacts.
As a god, Morani also had requirements for his clergy. One of the requirements was that "the clergy's armor and weapons must be personally prepared." Reynold didn't know how to forge, so he sought help from a dimensional merchant and came to the dangerous Orc Realm to hunt the legendary magical beast "Nimir Vajra Lion." With his great strength, he strangled the invulnerable magical beast to death. Then, he brought the whole lion back to the tribe and asked the shaman to empty the lion's flesh and internal organs, transforming the lion's skin into a heavy leather armor.
The name "Heavy-Armored Lion" came from this armor.
Morani admired Reynold because of this and promoted him to be his chosen one, granting him eternal life.
At first glance, it seemed that everything was going well and that the future was going well. Reynold would continue to grow and become a Demigod in the future, and he might even become a God …
However, not long after, an accident occurred.
It was autumn. The weather that year was a little bad, and the pasture on the grassland was obviously less than in previous years.
This kind of situation was rare, and every time it happened, it would lead to a huge battle.
Generally speaking, this situation meant that the Orcs would launch a fierce attack on the human countries at the end of autumn. It was not only to plunder food, but also to eliminate the overpopulation.
Such wars were usually extremely tragic because unlike in times of peace, many races with insufficient combat power would be driven to the frontlines, using their lives to wear down the humans' combat power — or in other words, wiping out mouths crying piteously for food.
Reynold's reaction to this was extremely intense. He expressed that he completely agreed with the idea of robbing humans when there was a lack of food, but how could he send those weak races to their deaths just because of a lack of food!
"I'm a heavy soldier, and my job on the battlefield is to protect. I can't just watch as such a thing happens!"
He roared so loudly that it even reached the Orc Emperor's palace.
However, it was all to no avail.
The problem of a lack of food was not something that a mere Legendary Master could solve. The food that could be robbed from the human countries was actually very limited. Compared to robbing food, wiping out the human population was more practical.
The war that year was very tragic, and there were countless deaths. Reynold fought crazily on the battlefield, and he did not know how many times he killed until he was covered in blood. The blood even changed the color of the King Kong Lion's skin, which was impervious to fire and water, into a horrifying scarlet color.
However, in the end, he was unable to do anything.
After that, Reynold was depressed for a long time. He began to doubt whether he was useful, and he questioned the value of his life.
In order to comfort him, the Orc Emperor married one of his daughters to him. Very soon, his child was born, and because of the warmth of the family, Reynold was reinvigorated.
After a few more years, the Orcs received news that the God of Knights and the God of Justice, who guarded the Eagle Kingdom, had begun to cooperate and were about to start a war against the Orcs.
This made the Orc Gods very uneasy. Although the God of Knights was old, he still had his majesty. Although the God of Justice was very unreliable, he was extremely powerful. Under the strong cooperation, coupled with the combat power of the Human God System, it was possible that the Orc God System would be defeated in this war.
Under such circumstances, the Orc God System's Master God, Lefon, found the War God System and asked the God of Strategy for advice on a plan.
It was a very vicious, but also very effective plan.
Not long after, this plan was put into practice.
The specific content of the plan was very complicated, and the implementation process was also very complicated. It was difficult to explain in a few words, but the effect of the plan could be described in one sentence.
The border guards of the Eagle Kingdom took the initiative to attack and massacred nearly a hundred tribes. More than 100,000 Orc civilians, regardless of gender, age, or age, were all slaughtered.
This matter shocked the entire Pantheon Temple, and also made the God of Justice furious. He stomped his feet and scolded the people of the Eagle Kingdom for going too far, and gave up on the idea of forming an alliance.
In general, this plan was indeed a great success. They only paid a price that was insignificant to the Gods, and they successfully avoided a great crisis.
However, after Reynold found out about this plan, the anger that he had been suppressing in his heart completely exploded.
It was a very large scale battle. Reynold, who was already at the peak of the legendary level, was extremely powerful, and he had many people supporting him. They fought with the Orc Emperor, who led the Cold Faction, and both sides suffered heavy casualties.
This time, Reynold did not give in, and no one could persuade him.
Including Morani.
His stubbornness angered the Orc Gods, and they sent down Divine Punishment. Reynold's comrades and family all died in the Divine Punishment, and he himself almost lost his life.
However, at the moment of life and death, Reynold broke through the limit and stepped into the Demigod Realm.
Divine Punishment could kill Legendary Masters, but it was meaningless to Demigods. To kill a Demigod, the only way was for a God to descend and kill him with an incarnation.
Reynold broke out of the encirclement and left the Orc Empire, becoming a lone ranger.
He gave up his belief in Morani, and in front of Morani's temple, he threw away the lion-skin heavy armor that he regarded as a treasure, a symbol of all the glory of the first half of his life, and changed into a simple steel heavy armor. He no longer used the name "Armored Lion," but wandered around with the name "Paul."
He thought that the tyranny and coldness of the Gods were the source of most disasters in the world, so when he became strong enough to become a God and became the "God of Wandering Heroes," he gave up on becoming a God and became an Evil God.
And what he liked to do the most was to prevent the Gods from expanding their influence, to disrupt the recruitment of those powerful Gods, and … to persuade those Masters who were trying to become Gods to give up this idea and join the ranks of the Evil Gods.
And after this battle, Morani also began to reflect. In the end, he left the Orc God System and led a group of simple-minded people to establish the Barbarian God System, becoming the Guardian God of Half-Orcs, Warriors, and Forgers.
"It sounds like a very sad story …" After listening to Morani's story, Sui Xiong pondered for a while and said, "Are you sure that he will help me? And not stab me with an axe the moment we meet? "
"I'm sure," Morani said seriously. "I watched him grow up, and I know his character very well. Although you often do some unreliable things, your various policies and policies are exactly the kind that he admires the most. "
"You're so sure?"
"Of course!" Morani laughed. "I'm still looking forward to him returning to the right path under your guidance, embarking on the path of the Gods, and becoming a real God!"
So Sui Xiong went to visit Reynold.
Reynold's residence was not secret. This stubborn and powerful Evil God never had any intention of hiding. When Sui Xiong went to visit him, he did not even bring his weapons or armor, and he came to greet Sui Xiong in casual clothes.
This Evil God no longer looked like a lion-man. He looked like a mixed-blood who was about forty years old and had some Orc characteristics. There was a thick beard on his resolute face, but he did not have the slightest bit of an uncivilized aura. He was tall and burly, but he did not look bloated or heavy. At first glance, people would feel that he was very agile. He did not have any murderous aura on him, and he stood there very calmly. But no matter who it was, they would immediately realize that he was a strong person that could not be underestimated.
"I understand." After listening to Sui Xiong's intentions, Reynold said calmly, "Alright, I'll help you."
Sui Xiong was stunned. He had originally thought of many words to persuade him, and he had prepared many examples. He planned to use a wide range of sources to talk non-stop for a few days and nights, and finally use the Tripitaka Style to convince Reynold. But he did not expect that this Evil God would be so easy to talk to and agree directly.
After hesitating for a while, he could not help but ask, "Why? Can you agree to such a thing so easily? "
"You're a good person," Reynold replied. "I like your policies very much. If you can promote the republicanism throughout the world, then I will not have a problem working for you. "
Only then did Sui Xiong understand the crux of the problem. On one hand, he secretly complained that Morani did not mention the crux of the problem, and on the other hand, he secretly thanked his university politics teacher. At the same time, he was glad that he did not skip politics class to play online games.
Although the development of the matter was somewhat unexpected, the result was good, and that was enough.
Sui Xiong was very satisfied!
