When Li Mochen returned to Twilight Dragon City, he found a quiet room alone and fell into a long contemplation, sitting there for a long time. He sat there for a long time until a pair of delicate hands reached out from behind him and gently pressed his forehead.
"You went to see Isis? Is the situation this time very troublesome? "
"It's not really troublesome."
Li Mochen smiled bitterly. "This person offered me a bargaining chip that I couldn't refuse, but this will disrupt my rhythm and established plans. I also know that their mother and son are very unreliable and will definitely violate the agreement in some way. "
Just like Lucifer, the God of Light finally forced him to rebel by making the deputy ruler of heaven bow to 'Messiah'.
Although 'Messiah' was the preacher of the God of Light in the mortal world and the vessel of the latter's power, she herself had extremely high strength and status. But for the former master of the Babylonian sky and gods, this was still a huge humiliation.
"Then why don't we just refuse?"
Angela frowned. After not getting an answer from Li Mochen, she said thoughtfully, "That is to say, even if they don't fulfill their promise, Ammo, you can still get a lot of benefits, right?"
"That's right."
Li Mochen's eyes were filled with a strange light. "I'm even looking forward to them successfully expelling Gaia. This way, I can get more opportunities. But before that, let's see what Gaia says first. I think she'll come to us soon. "
Angela could not help but sigh. "I don't quite understand your plan, but Ammo, you have to promise me that if the situation is so bad that we have to fight, you can't let me stay out of it. You've been protecting me too well recently. "
Li Mochen suddenly laughed and grabbed Angela's hand. "I don't think so. The reason why I didn't ask you to take action is because it's not necessary. I know what you're doing, but it takes time. "
He knew that in the recent popular games in the mortal world, there were three powerful pieces of equipment at the same time — 'Guilt-Cutter', 'Mythical Shield', and 'Holy Spear of Dreams'. Not only did they have the same shape, but their descriptions and effects were also the same.
There was no need to mention the former. It was the equipment that Li Mochen had personally refined for Angela using Lilith and Cain. The Mythical Battle Shield had the highest defensive ability in the game. According to the description in the game, as long as the character had enough Mana and willpower, they could defend against any form of attack in this world, regardless of the strength of the attack. Its specific abilities and attributes would vary depending on the game.
As for the Sacred Spear of Dreams, it had an indestructible sharpness as well as incomparable lethality. Not only did it carry the two powerful elemental powers of wind and thunder, it also had the ability to kill in one hit — as long as fifty percent of the game character's mana and fifty percent of his lifeforce were used to throw it, it would have the effects of 'Guaranteed Hit', 'Lucky', 'Guaranteed Break', 'Puncture', 'Lethal', and 'Guaranteed Kill'. Even the most powerful Bosses could be hit by the Holy Spear of Dreams and lose all their HP.
Although these three pieces of equipment were ridiculed by many players. Because their drop rate was extremely low and they were very useful, they were still sought after by many players and collectors. Every day, in the "Extremely Difficult" mode, they would repeatedly attack specific Bosses just to get these three pieces of godly equipment.
In addition, there was also a Frost Dragon named Gustav. In these games, it was either a powerful Boss or a top fighter of the neutral forces. It was also very popular among the players. Especially in a very popular summoning card game, the Frost Dragon 'Gustav' was one of the rarest cards.
This was Angela's arrangement in the mortal world. She was cleverly using her authority. If it could be completed, their power would be very exciting.
Unfortunately, because of the war that affected the whole world, the current state of the Internet and the game industry were in a state of wither. The number of players had greatly shrunk, which slowed down Angela's progress.
"Gustav and the three pieces of dream equipment do need time to grow, but aren't you underestimating your wife? What I can guarantee now is that under no circumstances will there be any problems with my Twilight Dragon City. "
At this moment, as Angela spoke, she handed the Crown of Grief on her head to Li Mochen.
"In this place, even if a God King comes, I'm confident that I can last at least a day, Ammo."
At first, Li Mochen didn't understand, but when he sensed the changes inside this Mythical equipment, he was slightly moved. "This is? Dream Source Substance? "
Although the amount of Source Substance in the Crown of Grief wasn't much, it was undoubtedly Source Substance.
It was different from the Darkness Origin Substance, Metal Origin Substance, and Star Origin Substance that he had obtained. This Dream Origin Substance was most likely an acquired Origin Substance, but it also possessed great power. It could raise the power of the Crown of Grief to an unimaginable level.
"It should be! I don't know why, but these Source Substances called 'Dreams' spontaneously gathered here, and they will probably continue to grow in the future. Other than that … "
Behind Angela, an ice blue dragon that was at least 1,500 meters long had appeared out of nowhere. The aura and power called cold and death also extended to Hell, which was nearly 100 kilometers away from Twilight Dragon City.
"Ammo, my Nether Purgatory will definitely not be a burden to you."
Li Mochen wasn't surprised by this. Two months ago, in order to let Angela achieve the ultimate dream and ultimate death in the shortest time possible, he had spent nearly 90 million strands of merit.
And now, the nine million strands of Qi of Merit that he harvested every day were constantly burning under his Benediction Spell.
At this time, he wasn't the only one extending his power towards the Gate of Truth.
* * *
Just as Li Mochen expected, Gaia appeared in front of him after just half a day. She directly projected her avatar into the Nether Purgatory and appeared in front of Li Mochen.
However, the Matriarch's expression was a little solemn. "You've met with Isis? What kind of conditions did she offer you? "
Li Mochen didn't hide anything from her when he went to meet Iciz.
However, when the two met, the power of the Mother of Light blocked all of Gaia's senses. She could guess Iciz's goal, but she didn't know what kind of bargaining chip she was going to use to make Li Mochen waver.
"I did. They offered 15% of the Source Substance, not for sharing, but for real authority."
Hearing this, Gaia couldn't help but laugh mockingly. "How generous, but you definitely won't agree. And then? I guess there must have been something else between you and her. "
If it was just the Source Substance, she didn't have to worry at all. This condition was almost fooling him.
"Indeed, then they offered me 10% of the Source Substance to remain neutral."
Li Mochen saw the doubt in Gaia's eyes and sighed slightly. "I can only say that it was beyond my imagination. Please allow me to keep the specifics a secret. "
Even though Iciz didn't make him promise to keep it a secret, Li Mochen had made up his mind not to reveal the existence of the world core to anyone.
He knew that if the God Kings, including Gaia, learned of this, they would definitely change their current strategy, which would greatly affect his future benefits.
Gaia's eyes narrowed slightly. "Since you want to keep it a secret, does that mean you agreed to it?"
"No, I'm still hesitating."
Li Mochen smiled bitterly. "I'm more inclined to remain neutral now, so I'm afraid I can't help you anymore, Mother Goddess Gaia."
"Neutral?"
Gaia snorted. "My descendant, you know what will happen to you if you do this, don't you?"
"I know. I might be eliminated by all of you as an uncertain factor."
Li Mochen replied calmly. "But Mother Goddess Gaia, if the situation really gets to that point, I will definitely side with your enemies before the battle begins. I'm sure they won't refuse. I'm sure I have the ability to make any one of you withdraw from the competition in my divine kingdom. "
Gaia's eyes suddenly revealed extreme coldness and murderous intent. "Are you threatening me?"
"Wasn't it you who threatened me first, Mother Goddess?"
"You make me curious. What did Iciz offer to make you waver?"
Gaia's eyes were filled with contemplation. "Then aren't you going to listen to my conditions? My descendant? "
Li Mochen guessed that Gaia's bargaining chip would not be as good as Iciz's, but he still put on an expression that said he was all ears.
He thought, 'What if? What if I don't need the world core in Iciz's hands to give me a chance to become a god above gods? Perhaps this person could offer more generous conditions that would allow him and his Divine Branch to have a brighter future.
But what Gaia said still made him feel slightly disappointed.
"I can let you share half of my [Origin] Authority in the future under any circumstances, and you will have the same status as Zeus. The Mandate pantheon can exist in this world at the same time as the Olympian pantheon and share the faith of mortals. "
After hearing this, Li Mochen sighed in his heart. Why did it have to wait until now? If this condition was put before meeting Iciz, there was more than a 90% chance that he would agree. Although the position of "God above Gods" was tempting and tempting, the option Gaia provided allowed him to maximize his capital and avoid risks.
If he joined forces with Zeus, it would be enough to make all the Divine Kings who wanted to become a god above gods lose their chance of winning.
But now, this was no longer enough to satisfy Li Mochen.
She wanted him to fight several Divine Kings at the same time, but she was not even willing to take out any of the world's source substance.
Of course, he could not rule out the possibility that she did not have any left.
But no matter what, Li Mochen had already made up his mind. "Please give me some time to think, Mother Goddess Gaia. This is an important decision."
Li Mochen did not directly refuse, but Gaia already knew his attitude. The goddess's expression was already very displeased. "I don't know what Iciz promised you, but whether it is a human or a god, the most important quality is self-awareness. If you spy on things that you can't reach when you are not strong enough, you will only end up with a broken body. "
Li Mochen knew that she might have guessed something, but he was not moved. "I will remember your advice, Your Highness. I will think twice before I act."
At this time, Gaia already knew that the possibility of convincing Li Mochen was very small. After thinking for a while, she changed her attitude. "I can allow you to stay neutral, and I can also not take back the authority I gave you. But before that, you must help me buy as much time as possible. In this regard, I believe our interests are the same. "
"That is not a problem."
Li Mochen's eyes flashed slightly. "Then how long do you want to buy? Your Highness? "
If it was just to buy time, that was indeed what he wanted. To Li Mochen, the longer the battle between the gods of the gods broke out, the higher his chances.
But there must be a time limit. It was foreseeable that the longer he delayed, the more risks he would face. Asgard and the God of Light would sooner or later not be able to tolerate his existence.
"Five years! At least five years! "
Gaia's gaze was as cold as a knife. "In these five years, you must ensure that the Thorn of Origin they use cannot be distributed in Australia, Southeast Asia, the Old Continent, America, and of course, the ancient country in the East. I know your relationship with them. You can convince them."
Li Mochen shook his head slightly. "You think too highly of me, Your Highness. I am not strong enough to deal with all of them at once — "
"I will let Prometheus and Diana join your pantheon for five years."
Gaia laughed coldly and interrupted Li Mochen's words. "In these five years, they will listen to your orders completely."
It just so happened that she also needed to give Zeus a warning.
As expected, Li Mochen did not refuse again. His eyes were deep in thought as he sank into a long thought.
If Diana and Prometheus were here, Gaia's proposal was not out of the question.
The Goddess of Magic's power did not need to be mentioned, and Prometheus was an ancient god that was greatly worshipped by mortals. He did not have many true believers, but many believed that he was the one who created humans and fought against the Olympians for them, giving them a bright future.
Prometheus himself was not only a prophet with a Godhood of 18, the God of Prophecy and Creation, but also a God of Fire with a Godhood of 18.
His Divine Right of Fire had even reached the level of Truth, not inferior to Zeus'. It was only because he was limited by his Divine Title that he could not enter the level of God King. This was also the same as Li Mochen. He was limited by his Divine Title and did not have greater power.
However, his ultimate 'Creation' and pseudo-truth 'Prophecy' were both very powerful abilities.
In terms of combat ability alone, he was undoubtedly a Deputy God King. His power was even greater than Fenrir's, and he could match or even surpass Thor. In Li Mochen's Divine Kingdom, Prometheus could be used as a God King.
"Only five years, Your Highness? You are asking me to risk my life. "
"I can only restrain them until this time."
Gaia's expression was calm. "According to my agreement with them, they have to listen to my orders until I become the God of Gods. After that, it is up to you whether you can keep the two of them. "
"Then during the time they serve me, they must listen to my orders completely, unconditionally, and without any interference. Is that okay?"
Li Mochen said expressionlessly. "I can promise you that, but I cannot guarantee that I can delay it for five years. Anyway, I will do my best. Apart from that, if you don't want me to enjoy more power, then you will have to pay an additional price. "
He knew that Gaia's wealth and resources were far above the 'British Gods' and 'Itsamna'. After all, America was a newly formed continent in the last ten thousand years, while the old continent was the original region of this world. There was a difference of hundreds of thousands of years of history between the two.
For a powerful Ancient God who had existed since the creation of the World of Light, it was easy to take out three to five hundred pieces of mythical materials.
At the same time, on a high platform in the Kingdom of Light, the King of the Holy War, the strongest Angel, Prince of Light, Michael was half-kneeling behind Isis.
"Your Highness, according to your orders, we have stopped the war with Ahura."
"Then did Ahura abide by the agreement?"
"It seems that Odin's mediation was effective. He temporarily stopped the erosion of my Lord's authority."
Michael's voice was calm and emotionless, but behind him, the seraphs on standby in the distance all had strange expressions. They could all sense the intense emotions of the King of the Holy War.
"But I can't imagine the consequences if my Lord learns of this."
"Let's talk about it after he wakes up. Michael, you have to admit that as long as he can remove the contamination, it will be easy for him to take back his faith from Ahura. At this time, there is nothing more important than the world core. "
Isis was truly calm and graceful. She then placed two identical spears into Michael's hands. "Later, you may have to personally deliver these two 'Sacred Spears of Longinus' to the Chief God of Fate. According to my agreement with him, before your Lord becomes a god above gods, these two spears will be temporarily lent to him. Hmm … I think it won't be long before he makes a decision. "
Michael's pupils dilated slightly. At this moment, the light of the entire Kingdom of Light rippled for a moment.
"Your Highness, I want to know if you are really prepared to let the Chief God of Fate share my Lord's glory?"
"You want to ask about the second opportunity to become a god above gods, right? I did promise him that. "
Isis smiled slightly. "At that time, I said that when Gaia is expelled from the [Origin], I will throw the world core in my hands into the [Origin] in exchange for his help. Of course, I will keep my promise, but whether or not he can keep it in the end is up to him. "
Michael's expression froze for a moment, and then he fell into deep thought.
"Michael, now that we are alone and without help, the Chief God of Fate is a help that we must obtain. To be honest, after my return, I am even glad that this world has another God King rising. This makes things much easier for us. Do you understand? "
Isis then changed the topic. "Medanzo, what is the matter with the recent conflict between the Asgard Pantheon and the Olympus Pantheon?"
The one who answered her was the Angel of Fire, Clerk of the Celestial Realm, Metatron, also known as Metatron, who was promoted to the King of Angels after Uriel was judged to be a Fallen Angel. "The God of Vengeance of Asa, Vali, believed that Apollo, the Sun God, had killed his brother, Balder, the God of Light. He joined forces with Hoder, the God of Darkness, and Balder's eldest son, Versailles, the God of Truth, Justice, and Law, to ambush Apollo. Not only did they heavily injure Apollo, but they also killed a few of his Titan followers. This led to a fierce war between the two pantheons in Anatolia and Bolivia, the two misty continents. In order to develop these two continents, there is a huge conflict between them. "
Isis could not help but reveal a look of surprise in her eyes. "Does Odin know about this?"
"I don't think so. I suspect that someone used a powerful divine right to deceive Odin. The Chief God of Fate is definitely one of them. As for the other one, I do not know for now."
Metatron frowned. "The point is that all the evidence points to Apollo. After the ambush, the Sun Chariot, which he controlled, displayed power far beyond the myths and legends. Due to the good relations of the Light God Balder, the entire Asgard pantheon is now in a state of excitement. Even with Odin's prestige, it is difficult to suppress his followers. As for the Olympus pantheon, the situation is not much better. This has already affected the WanShou Empire's offensive in the north. They have not sent more troops in Java Island for two months in a row. "
Isis was deep in thought. "Of all times? I can find a way to investigate. I smell the scent of a conspiracy … "
At this moment, she felt something in her heart, and looked into the void in the distance. Then, she saw a red-gold shuttle of light penetrate into the Kingdom of Heaven and fly in front of her.
Isis had already sensed the divine aura of 'Fate'. Her lips curled up slightly, and she picked up the shuttle with slight anticipation.
Not long after, the Goddess of Light laughed mockingly. "He agreed, but on the condition that he remains absolutely neutral after the Thorn of Origin is activated."
"Your Highness!"
Michael could not help but frown deeply. "He wants to buy time for the Mother of Origin, and for himself."
"It doesn't matter!"
As she spoke, she looked up at the bright sun in the sky. "Time is something that your Lord needs as well. However, we cannot let them delay for too long. "
