"Sauron!"
Immediately afterward, their surging "Power of Disorder" descended.
"Ugh, ah-!"
As an evil spirit, Sauron, who had long lost the sensation of pain, let out a miserable scream.
Medici and Einhorn could also feel Sauron's pain and fear from their connection. Indeed, it was a force that could extinguish them at any moment.
They had thought that their "evil spirit life" of over a thousand years had made them forget fear, but now they knew that they had not forgotten, it was just that there had been nothing to scare them for over a thousand years.
Now they really wanted to congratulate each other on rediscovering the feeling of being flesh and blood.
If it were other demigod-level Beyonders, Hobert could defeat them with the high Sequence of "Nation of Disorder", but it wouldn't be so easy to form such an obvious phenomenon of the upper level suppressing the lower level.
The reason for the current phenomenon is that Medici's power as an evil spirit is actually greater than their power as Beyonders. They have extremely high Sequence, and today they are still the "Angel of War".
Similar to Hobert's situation, although their strength does not reach the demigod level, their Sequence makes up for the lack of strength, which allows them to remain fearless in the face of opponents at the demigod level who have undergone qualitative changes.
However, this also has a huge drawback. As long as they encounter an opponent who has a greater advantage in Sequence, all their advantages will be lost.
Therefore, Hobert can even use the already abstract "Distortion" to completely "flatten" them like kneading plasticine, without any resistance.
Three or four seconds later, the pain that Sauron felt finally disappeared, but it still took him more than ten seconds to recover a little: "Th, thank you for your mercy."
The three smaller evil spirits involuntarily bowed slightly to the "Creator", which reminded them of the feeling of facing Solomon, and a sentence appeared in their minds at the same time:
You must not test God!
Even the former King of Angels and angels cannot violate such admonitions!
That's right, following Einhorn's test, Sauron's question just now was actually another test.
If the "Creator" admitted that he was Emperor Roselle, then they would understand the identity of the person in front of them.
If the "Creator" said another name, regardless of whether they had heard the name or not, it would indicate that the "Creator" was guilty. Only guilt would lead to "self-reporting".
That would mean that the "Creator" might be bound or sealed by various shackles, just like them.
If either of these two situations occurred, they would have contemptuous thoughts.
And the "Creator's" reaction was the reaction that a deity should have: capricious.
Medici asked respectfully: "Honorable 'Creator', can you completely 'separate' us?"
"Yes, but that would make you disappear completely."
In fact, Hobert wasn't sure if he could do this.
Medici asked again: "Can you let us leave here? We are willing to offer sacrifices that you might be interested in."
As he said this, they each stretched out a hand. Their will on this matter was surprisingly consistent, so no quarrel occurred with this action. A card appeared in the palms of the three people.
Of course, Hobert knew that it was a "Blasphemy Card", and he also knew that it was the "Red Priest" card.
"Your fate has already been written," Hobert said. "However, I can distort the 'Quill of Alzuhod' to bring someone you can easily possess as soon as possible."
If Medici had a face, it would definitely be full of shock at this time: The Creator knows Adam's plan! How, how does he know?
Einhorn: The Creator can distort 'Alzuhod's Quill'! That's right, his 'Distortion' has become abstract, and he can twist everything.
If these three small ghosts had eyes, they would definitely look at each other and see disbelief in each other's eyes.
In fact, Medici's request was a test he was conducting. How could the dignified King of Angels and angels give up testing because of pain?
The sudden appearance of the "Creator" made the three mortal enemies work together to deal with an enemy for the first time.
It's just that Medici's test was more skillful, more like making a request than testing.
At this time, the three ghosts were completely convinced and dared not have any more testing thoughts.
The fact that the "Creator" could say this meant that he agreed to help. They tactfully handed the "Blasphemy Card" in their hands to Rafter.
It's just that if they knew that even if they didn't do anything, "Alzuhod's Quill" would still send that "one-eyed dragon" over, they would definitely have the urge to chop off their hands.
Einhorn asked: "Great 'Creator', what is our future fate?"
Adam couldn't possibly run over and tell them how he would write their fate.
They could only sense through their high Sequence that their fate seemed to have entered Adam's story, but they didn't know what story had been arranged for them, whether it was a tragedy or a comedy.
The "Creator" paused for a few seconds, as if he was looking down on their fate. In fact, the "Great Creator" was recalling their later situation.
A few seconds later, the "Creator" said in a solemn voice: "Discover humanity; Amon; Sequence 1!"
Then the "Creator" smiled and said: "In view of Medici's loyalty to the 'Ancient Sun God', Adam, hehe, you can now think of it as Adam, will not treat you badly."
The "Creator's" words made Medici and the others even more complimentary, and they didn't even think about why a deity of the "Black Emperor" pathway would have authority over fate.
Because the information given by the "Creator" was shocking enough to them, "Finding humanity" was easy to understand. After being evil spirits for so long, they had long psychologically stopped thinking of themselves as individuals or Beyonders.
Being able to regain humanity meant that they had a chance to change their current state.
"Amon" was the first point that surprised them. Why would their future fate be related to this troublesome "God of Mischief"? This was clearly the beginning of a tragedy!
They didn't know what the "Sequence 1" referred to yet, but it should also be a key node.
What surprised Medici even more was, how could the "Creator" be so clear about his experience? Had he always been loyal to the "Omnipotent and Omniscient God"? After the fall of this "Ancient Sun God", Medici still chose to continue to be loyal to the "True Creator", and was a rare "loyalist".
But then he thought again, this didn't seem too shocking. As long as the other party had a long enough lifespan, as long as the other party knew the object he had always been loyal to, it wouldn't be difficult to guess his experience.
Adam was the son of the "Ancient Sun God", and he would give his father's subordinates a chance, which they could understand.
But why did the "Creator" say "You can now think of it as Adam"?
There was obviously a huge amount of information in this sentence, but they didn't quite understand it yet.
Even Klein, who already had rich experience in pretending to be an evil god, would find it difficult to fool these three troublesome guys.
But Hobert was different, he knew enough, even the "Angel of War" with extraordinary intelligence and a love for planning conspiracies was completely deceived.
The "Creator" said again in a solemn voice: "Alright, your matter has been resolved, just wait patiently."
Without waiting for Medici and the others to thank him, the "Creator" said to Rafter again: "Go and take back your family's things."
Although Medici and the other three had a bloody feud with the Tudor family, they showed enough restraint at this time. After all, they had killed many descendants of the Tudor family (Pound family) more than thirty years ago.
Rafter quickly put away the card with a bone-chilling coldness and entered the double stone door that had been pushed open a long time ago.
The ground and walls of the stone chamber were covered with fresh blood, which seemed to have just been poured on, as if it could flow down from the walls and drip from the roof at any time.
In the depths of the stone chamber were three black stone chairs with their backs to each other. Each stone chair was occupied by a skeleton, and one of the skeletons had long red hair on its head.
Even though the skeletons were sitting there motionless, even though they had long lost their vitality, the skeletons still made Rafter feel a strong aggressiveness, as if they could stand up at any time and eliminate the intruders who entered the stone chamber.
Rafter quickly shifted his gaze to look at the skeletons lying scattered on the ground. Those skeletons were the real skeletons, scattered all over the stone chamber, and had long lost any aggressiveness.
Next to the skeletons were some Beyonder characteristics with magical colors, as well as many seemingly unusual accessories on the skeletons, which were sealed items or extraordinary items.
Rafter took out the cloth bag he had prepared long ago, which contained small compartments. He carefully and meticulously picked up the Beyonder characteristics one by one. At this time, he had the feeling of picking up gold bricks: "One, two, three... eight, nine..."
Wait, how did a few more come out? Never mind, I'll pick them up first.
Next were sealed items and magical items, a total of five items, and the cloth bags he prepared were full.
Finally, he searched around the stone chamber and did not find the treasure he had imagined. Rafter was a little nervous, wondering if the "Creator" would blame him, after all, he had said that there was a big treasure inside in order to impress the "Creator".
This wasn't Rafter lying, but the notes given to him by his grandfather the clan leader had such speculation.
But there really wasn't any treasure here. Could it be that he had to carry the skeletons on the stone chairs out and tell the "Creator" that that was the treasure?
Rafter seemed to see the scene of himself being pinched into three pieces and dying miserably in the ruins.
Let's be honest, Rafter sighed, he could only hope for the "Creator's" mercy.
After taking all the Beyonder characteristics away, Rafter bowed slightly to the evil spirits outside the stone door that had been reunited, which was politeness.
Then he straightened his chest and left, which was the pride of having a backer like the "Creator".
After Rafter left, the ruins fell into darkness again, and Sauron asked: "What to do?"
Einhorn coldly asked back: "What what to do?"
Sauron rarely didn't sarcastically say: "We just gave away the only thing we could offer."
"Idiot!" Medici sneered: "You should be glad that we can still question each other here and have received the revelation of fate. Our contribution also expressed goodwill to the Creator. Isn't that enough?"
Sauron also coldly said: "Heh, are you going to recognize a new master again?"
"..."
The argument that lasted for several hours began from this.
...
"Nation of Disorder", on the "Iron Throne", Hobert watched Rafter leave the ruins and waited for the other party's sacrifice.
During this period, he projected the mosaic-covered image of himself praying to himself onto Elliot's stars.
Hobert had just seen that Rafter had picked up three Beyonder characteristics of the "Baron of Corruption" in the stone chamber. It would be enough to give one of them to Rafter, and he could continue to sell the Beyonder characteristics he had originally prepared to sell to Elliot.
Hobert first received Elliot's reply, and he couldn't hide the excitement in his heart: "...Great Creator, please tell that blessed one that I am willing to buy that Beyonder characteristic and can accept the price offered by the other party, and I can sacrifice gold to you tomorrow."
It was only a premium of a few hundred pounds. For Elliot, this was simply too cheap. Even with 5,000 pounds, he might not be able to collect the "Baron of Corruption" potion in the Southern Continent.
In the extraordinary world, extraordinary materials of Sequence 6 become scarce, and the premium also increases.
By 9:30 in the evening, he finally waited for Rafter's somewhat worried and fearful prayer: "...Great Creator, it's entirely because our family's information misled me, and made me think that there was a treasure in the ruins. It's not that I deliberately deceived you. Your servant, with the most pious attitude, begs for your forgiveness."
Hobert on the "Iron Throne" was stunned: He's actually worried about this! The card you put on the altar is the biggest treasure!
When Hobert's gaze swept across the altar, he saw that there seemed to be a black line wrapped around those Beyonder characteristics.
This black line was not in the ruins, and he had not heard Rafter's relevant report, indicating that only through "True Vision" could these black lines be seen.
After a little thought, Hobert understood that this was a curse, a curse from a high-level evil spirit. It had not been shown in the ruins, and the curse appeared after leaving the ruins.
The reason why Medici didn't make a reminder was because, in their view, the "Creator" should be able to easily notice this and solve this level of curse.
These curses were indeed not difficult to solve for Hobert.
As for Rafter's worries, Hobert pondered for a while and suddenly thought of another place where this "trump card" could be used: I really didn't plan to use you as a pawn, but you forced me to!
So he responded in a supreme voice: "Do something for me to atone for your sins! Sacrifice all the gains to me, and prepare for the granting ceremony tomorrow morning."
Then Hobert projected the image of the Beyonder characteristics with black lines onto Rafter's stars, letting him experience it himself.
