Indelia hesitated for a long time.
Even if she called for help now, Matthew and the others might not stand on her side.
Plus, Chen Zhao looked sickly, but he wasn't weak.
She might not be his match even if she absorbed the magic power of four people.
Even if Matthew and the others stood on her side, they might not be able to defeat Chen Zhao.
Chen Zhao looked at Indelia. "What, are you still thinking about whether you can turn the tables?"
Delia clenched her teeth and said, "I practice Scarlet Magic."
"Oh … and then?"
"You don't understand the meaning of Scarlet Magic?"
"Explain it to me," Chen Zhao said.
Indelia's face twitched. She didn't even understand Scarlet Magic. What a waste of her feelings.
"Anyway, it's a magic system that the spiritual world doesn't accept."
"There are magic systems that the spiritual world doesn't accept? There are many people who cultivate Dark Magic and Necromancy. I've never seen anyone being hunted for it. "
"Scarlet Magic is different."
"What's different? More evil? More powerful? Or crueler? "
"Scarlet Magic cultivates Scarlet Aura. Once someone absorbs the Scarlet Aura, they'll be turned into Scarlet Thugs, Scarlet Fanatics, or the even more terrifying Scarlet Polluters. If there are enough Scarlet Polluters, they can even distort an entire city or country."
"Oh, that's the reason." Chen Zhao could understand.
Both Dark Magic and Necromancy looked evil, but it was only because the person was strong or evil.
But Scarlet Magic could turn others into Scarlet Monsters.
This made the user of Scarlet Magic a source of pollution.
It was like a product produced by a chemical factory. Perhaps everyone could use it and get used to it.
But if there was a chemical factory in front of their house, no one would like it.
It was the same for Scarlet Magic.
"As you guessed, they absorbed the Scarlet Gas, and the Scarlet Gas absorbed their magic power. When they expelled the Scarlet Gas from their bodies, I absorbed their Scarlet Gas and obtained their magic power."
This was within Chen Zhao's expectations.
When Indelia's aura strengthened, Chen Zhao was already suspicious.
Although Chen Zhao's senses were suppressed, Delia's aura grew stronger and spread towards Chen Zhao.
She clearly did not know how to control her aura.
"Those aren't your comrades, right?"
"No." Delia glanced at those figures on the battlefield.
"Who are they?"
"I'm nobody." Delia calmly replied, "I don't know them. Like you, they are participants in the Battle of Holy Glory."
"But when you came before, you were shouting and yelling."
"Because of you." Delia said, "I followed them here, and then I discovered you. You were also not affected by the scarlet gas."
"You followed them to absorb the Scarlet Gas from their bodies?"
"That's right."
"If we're not here, how are you going to absorb it? Do it yourself? "
"Although the process will be rather complicated, it's not impossible," Delia said.
What she was implying was that she was also capable of fighting.
"Those Scarlet Defilers were created by you?"
"No, as I said before, they have nothing to do with me," Delia said.
"How am I supposed to believe you? After all, your powers are the same. "
"Those Scarlet Defilers were created by this battlefield, not me."
"This battlefield? You said there's something hidden below, right? "
Delia started to hesitate again.
"Are you still planning to hide it now?"
"Knowing too much won't do you any good."
"You know I hate this sentence the most. Everyone has curiosity and a thirst for knowledge."
"What's hidden below is the source of Scarlet Magic, the Red Demon. The Church's first crusade was to suppress him. In that war, the Church had 120,000 Holy Crusaders, but less than 3,000 returned alive."
"According to records, the first crusade was in the 11th century, and the Wasteland Market was built before that."
"The original design of the Wasteland Market was not to suppress the Red Demons but to be used as a mausoleum."
"Tomb? Theodosius the First? He has that much influence? "Chen Zhao was surprised.
"Theodosius the First? He doesn't have that much influence. He's just a mausoleum keeper. This is God's tomb, "Delia said. "And after the Red Demon was destroyed, he would continue to resurrect. In order to prevent him from continuing to wreak havoc in the world, the Red Demon was suppressed here, using the body of a God to suppress the Demon, and a large number of Holy Church troops were sent to guard this place."
"You're saying that there's a God's body here?"
"Yes. Apart from God's power, there's no other way to suppress the Red Demon."
"What about these skeletons?"
"These were left by the Holy Army that guarded this place back then," Delia said. "Back then, the Red Demon was suppressed here, but his power kept seeping out. Just like the Scarlet Defilers, it corrupted the Holy Army back then. In the end, they completely mutated and fell. In the end, the uncorrupted Holy Army and the corrupted Defilers started a war here. Both sides died, and the Scarlet Magic came into being. Back then, the Holy Army developed the Scarlet Magic to cure their corrupted comrades. Thus, the Scarlet Magic has the effect of restraining the Scarlet Aura to a certain extent. However, it has no effect on those who are deeply corrupted."
"You're saying that Theodosius the First isn't the owner of this tomb? He's just a mausoleum keeper? "
"Of course. How could he have the right to use such a huge tomb? This Wasteland Market was built for only one purpose — to be used by the last ancient God in the human world. "
"Oh, which ancient God? Is he famous? "
"The Sun God, Apollo," Delia said.
"Whoosh …" Chen Zhao couldn't help but exclaim.
The Sun God, Apollo. Anyone who knew Greek mythology would know the Sun God, Apollo.
After all, he was a very recognizable God.
"Then why are you here?" Chen Zhao asked.
"I was teleported here," Delia answered. "I don't know the specifics."
"That's a coincidence? As the user of the Scarlet Magic, you were teleported to the birthplace of the Scarlet Magic? I doubt it. "
