It wasn't a problem for the Magic Grid Core to swallow divine energy. That was Roland's purpose in the first place.
However, it wouldn't be good if his virtual Divine Spark was transformed into the Brutalization Divine Spark.
The Brutalization Divine Spark was evil. If he absorbed it, he would probably become an Evil God.
Of course, some people would say that power wasn't good or evil. It all depended on how you used it.
If that was the case, it was true to some extent.
But it still depended on the situation.
For example, opium poppies could cure a lot of diseases when used as medicine.
However, everyone knew the consequences of consuming a large amount of it.
The Brutalization Divine Spark, on the other hand, was like a certain chemical that started with the word "ice." It was much more tempting than opium poppies.
It was almost impossible to quit after two or three times. The relapse rate of this thing was almost 100%. It was difficult for humans to have strong willpower to quit on their own. This was because the reward and punishment mechanism of the brain that had taken the ice X chemical had changed.
They couldn't be regarded as normal people anymore.
So, the best solution was to never touch it.
Never.
The evil Divine Spark was the same. Never touch it or transform it.
Once it was melted into his soul, the nature of his soul would change too.
There were 71 hours to go before the virtual Divine Spark was transformed into the Brutalization Divine Spark. It was enough for him to separate the virtual Divine Spark from his soul.
He parked the floating city and set up multiple protective barriers. The magic power of the barriers came from the Magic Grid Core, the central chassis of the floating city. He was still in the main plane, and any god that came here would be suppressed. Even if a dozen evil gods descended, it wouldn't be easy to break the magic barrier of the floating city.
Right when Roland was about to abandon the virtual Divine Spark, he suddenly raised his eyebrow and entered Mystra's Mansion.
The vague light of the Astral Plane passed through the transparent wall of Mystra's Mansion and fell on the ground like flowing water.
Andonara, who had been anxious, was greatly relieved to see Roland teleporting in.
She approached him and asked, "What happened? I feel that something is wrong. There's an ominous and murderous vibe coming from you."
As the only Hero at this moment, she was quite sensitive to evil vibes.
She worshipped Roland and had been connected to the virtual Divine Spark, providing a lot of power of faith.
He could even be counted as a fanatic, and he could sense Roland very strongly.
"Here's what happened." Roland told him what had happened.
At the same time, he also told her that he was going to throw away the Virtual Divine Spark.
Andonara was relieved to hear that.
If Roland turned the Virtual Divine Spark into the Brutalization Divine Spark and became an Evil God, she would naturally fall with him and become an Evil God believer.
But she still hoped that Roland wouldn't become an evil god.
"You came just in time." Roland smiled and said, "When I take out the virtual Divine Spark later, I'll most likely be in an unconscious state. Although I'm protected by the floating city, it'll be more reassuring if there's someone I trust watching over me."
"Don't worry. I won't let anyone approach you." Andonara walked to a corner and picked up the Hero's Sword that had been stored there.
The two then walked out of Mystra's Mansion's space hand in hand and came to the square of the floating city.
This place was very spacious, and if anything happened, it wouldn't cause much damage.
Both of them did things quickly and decisively. As soon as they arrived at the square, Andonara unsheathed her sword. She stood five meters away from Roland, completely unleashing her senses, and no movement around her could escape her eyes and ears.
She would even notice the flow of air.
Roland, on the other hand, simply sat down and closed his eyes to enter his mental world.
He didn't feel any discomfort before, but after entering the spiritual world, he found that the situation was much more serious than he imagined.
After such a short delay, the Virtual Divine Spark in his soul not only turned red, but the aura that leaked out even dyed a corner of the spiritual world red.
One-third of the blue soul sky turned bright red.
It looked very weird.
Although there were still about seventy hours or so before the Virtual Divine Spark was completely transformed into the Brutalization Divine Spark, the corrosive effects it caused might take effect before the Brutalization Divine Spark took shape.
He couldn't delay any longer.
Roland only stood still for a few seconds or so, then began to expel the Virtual Divine Spark from his soul.
He imagined countless enormous blue Hands of Magic, grabbing the transforming Virtual Divine Spark, wrapping it up, and stretching it to the sky.
A gigantic opening appeared in the middle of the sky, from which intense white light beamed in.
Also, during the stretching, a lot of Hands of Magic were dyed red and then broke into halves feebly.
Roland kept replenishing the Hands of Magic and didn't stop until he completely threw the thing out of the spiritual world.
Then, he began to refine the areas of the soul that were dyed red with his mental power.
In reality, Andonara watched as a red ball emerged above Roland's head and hovered above his head, slowly rotating.
Her instincts as a Hero told her that this thing was filled with an evil aura and a foul smell.
She instinctively wanted to cut the thing apart with her sword, but Roland hadn't woken up yet. Besides, what if Roland had other plans for the thing?
So, she decided to wait quietly.
But things didn't go as she expected.
Ten seconds after the transforming Virtual Divine Spark left Roland's soul, a lot of eyes appeared in the sky of the floating city.
All the eyes were fixed on the floating city.
"Gods."
Andonara murmured to herself.
She didn't think much of one or two gods, but the simultaneous appearance of so many gods gave her a lot of pressure.
Unlike the players who weren't scared of anything except their parents, Andonara was born and raised in this world. She had been taught that the gods were powerful, majestic, and irresistible.
Although she was stronger than most gods at this moment, the education and knowledge that had almost sunk into her bones from a young age still influenced her behavior and perception.
So now, her back was slightly sweating, and her heart was also a little timid.
However, as soon as she saw Roland sitting there and thought that he might be hurt by some evil gods, Andonara suppressed her fear.
She bravely looked at every pair of eyes up above, judging which ones were malicious and which ones were friendly.
"Human woman, if you can kill Roland and offer me the transforming Divine Spark, I can make an exception and make you my servant, granting you eternal life in the Realm of Gods. How does that sound?"
Alright, I'll remember this.
Andonara stared coldly into the speaking eyes.
As if sensing Andonara's killing intent, the eyes snorted. "You don't know what's good for you."
Then, an enormous pressure pressed down from a great distance.
Andonara sensed the mental attack and was ready to take it head-on.
However, the mental power was blocked by a transparent shield when it landed on the floating city.
A huge, circular barrier protected the entire floating city. Although the outer transparent barrier cover kept shaking and even broke twice, it was still able to protect the floating city from the attacks.
However, there were still more than ten layers of cover inside.
At the same time, the shattered shield was repaired in just two seconds.
The mental attack lasted for nearly a minute, and apart from the magic shield appearing a few times, nothing else happened.
Andonara was reassured.
Soon, the mental attack faded.
The eyes snorted again and disappeared.
Then, a group of gods laughed mockingly.
Only the God of Recklessness would launch a cross-border long-range attack knowing that the target was under the protection of the floating city.
This Evil God was a classic example of a person who had more action than judgment.
At this moment, the voice of a goddess came down.
"Powerful female human Warrior, you're stronger than any human I've ever seen. I even see the Hero's blood in you."
Andonara looked at the beautiful eyes.
"I'm Mepala, the Goddess of Love." The pleasant and alluring female voice continued, "I won't ask you to betray your man, and I'm not interested in the thing that's about to be transformed into an evil Divine Spark. But I'm very interested in you two. If you're willing to join the Church of Love, I'll bless you so that you can be together forever. "
Mepala, the Goddess of Love, was a neutral goddess. What she said at least had a bottom line.
Andonara was a little tempted. She was really interested in being with Roland forever.
That was what women were like. They were more emotional.
She felt that the woman came with a friendly attitude, so she said slowly, "Ms. Pamela, I'm very interested in your proposal, but can I consider it?"
"Of course."
"No …"
A faint female voice interrupted the conversation between the two.
She looked at Andonara with her beautiful pink eyes. "I'm Mystra, the Goddess of Magic. Ms. Andonara, I don't care who you believe in, but don't blame me for smacking your butt if you dare to whisper to Roland."
Huh?
All the gods looked at Mystra. Why was this woman talking so weirdly?
Shouldn't a mortal be destroyed in body and soul, or thrown to the Wall of the Faithless to dry?
What was with smacking someone's butt?
It didn't sound like a punishment, but more like a punishment.
Andonara blinked in confusion too.
The Goddess of Love was pissed. "Mystra, what's the meaning of this? I spoke first. I came first, didn't I? "
"Bitch, you want to steal my male … believer, and you want me to talk to you nicely?" Mystra snorted.
"That man doesn't have any power of faith. Only a ghost would believe that he's your believer."
Mystra said calmly, "He is if I say so. Do you have a problem with that?"
"You're trying to intimidate me just because you're one of the Lawful Gods. I don't accept that. Life, Light, and Death. Why don't you come out and be the judge? "
Nobody said anything. Three pairs of beautiful eyes even disappeared.
"If you keep nagging, do you believe that I'll immediately teleport to you and blow up half of your paradise?" Mystra's eyes began to glint coldly.
"Humph!"
The Goddess of Love realized something, and the eyes that represented her disappeared too.
But many more eyes remained.
They wanted to see what Roland's choice would be after he woke up.
Would he throw away the evil Divine Spark, or would he fuse with it?
But actually, many people already had an answer. They just stayed to see if anything unexpected would happen.
Andonara waited in silence.
She was under a lot of pressure.
It wasn't the reverence for the gods, but a different kind of pressure.
Her man seemed to have caught the eye of several goddesses again. What should she do?
Can anyone teach me how to steal a man from a goddess? I'm in a hurry. I'm waiting online!
That was probably how she felt at this moment.
She didn't have much of an advantage over the goddesses at all.
None of the goddesses were ugly. Even the Spider Queen was said to be a charming type.
At this moment, Roland woke up.
When he opened his eyes, Andonara ran to him and said happily, "That's great! Roland, are you alright?"
Roland hadn't moved since he forced the evil Divine Spark out, which made her worry that something was wrong with Roland's soul.
Roland shook his head with a smile. It took him a lot of time to purify his soul world.
After all, it was the corruption of divine rules. It was hard to clean even if it wasn't serious.
He stood up, looked at the dense eyes in the sky, and then saw Mystra's pink and charming smiling eyes at a glance.
Waving his hand at her, Roland smiled at all the gods. "It seems that I'm quite popular. So many big shots have come to see me at the same time."
Many gods frowned.
They sensed Roland's disrespect for the gods again.
Because Roland used the word "big shots."
It was meant to refer to people.
It meant that in Roland's eyes, all the gods were equal to him.
Only a few gods didn't care about Roland's attitude.
Soon, an unpleasant atmosphere enveloped the periphery of the floating city.
Roland ignored them and picked up the red virtual Divine Spark next to him.
"I guess a lot of people want this."
The eyes in the sky were stirring.
Of course, the Lawful gods wouldn't want it, the Evil Gods loved it, and the neutral gods were about half and half.
The Divine Spark was the foundation of power for them.
The more complete the Divine Spark one had, the more power they had, and the higher their upper limit would be.
Of course, the number of believers was also important.
For example, the Four Main Gods of Sequence were only so strong because they possessed a complete Godhood.
For example, although Light also had a small part of the Fire Divine Spark, her Light Divine Spark was complete and nobody could take it away.
In comparison, the Fire God was miserable. Not only was a small part of the Fire Divine Spark taken by Light, but the concept that flames could also produce light wasn't on him.
So … he could only be a neutral god and a secondary god, suppressed by the God of Light.
If the two of them fought, it would take Light less than a minute to crush the Fire God.
There were many deities like the God of Fire, whose divinity had been divided into many pieces.
For example, part of the Love Goddess's Lust Fragment was taken by the Spider Queen.
Another part of the Spider Queen's shadow and darkness authority was taken by death.
Roland looked at the many evil eyes that were staring at the Divine Spark in his hand. They looked like hungry dogs that had seen shit.
He smiled and grabbed the Divine Spark with a huge Hand of Magic and threw it into the Astral Plane.
The Divine Spark turned into a red thread and disappeared into the Astral Plane.
Instantly, a lot of eyes disappeared.
Only a small number of eyes remained where they were.
After a few seconds, these eyes disappeared too, except for a pair of pink eyes that were still looking at him.
"Roland, fly the floating city over. Your floating city is evolving. I can protect you, and there's something I want to say to you."
A familiar voice sounded in Roland's soul.
