Chapter 666: Complete Purification (It’s a New Month, Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket)
The battle against the Lord of the Flies' Nest was the first battle that Duanmu Huai had fought directly against a Chaos powerhouse since he came to this world. Compared to the experience he gained, well, this little experience was basically a drop in the bucket. The God of Destruction now needs 300 million experience points to level up. Duanmu Huai didn't know how crazy the upgrade of this broken system was, but it was obvious that for the system, an enemy like the Lord of the Flies' Nest was only worth this little experience.
Well, from a certain perspective, it seems reasonable?
Well, putting this aside, Duanmu Huai also gained a lot from this battle.
First of all, although his power as the God of Destruction was effective against the curse of the Corrupted Stain, it was limited.
For example, just like the common attribute restraint in the game system, the Corrupted Stain is wood, and Duanmu Huai's power of destruction is earth. When earth hits wood, you can still deal high damage with level suppression, but it is obviously not as restrained as fire hitting wood. This is how Duanmu Huai felt when he beat the Lord of the Fly Nest. He burned a lot of soul power from other worlds. All the souls that Duanmu Huai had killed in the name of the Inquisition were thrown into the God's Domain Burning Furnace of his Annihilation Domain, which gave Duanmu Huai a strong power, just like a car suddenly soaring from cruising speed to the highest speed, which completely eliminated the notorious betrayer who had devoted himself to Chaos and corrupted before the Great Rebellion.
But then again... this group of people is miserable enough.
Duanmu Huai still remembers that players in the game also discussed this issue, that is, why this group of lunatics were sealed in the Eye of Terror for tens of thousands of years, but they were weak after coming out... Well, they are not particularly weak, but it always feels inconsistent with the players' imagination.
After all, according to general theory, if you were so awesome 10,000 years ago, then you must be even more awesome after you came out after 10,000 years of seclusion, right?
But the fact is that you were very awesome 10,000 years ago, and you became a little awesome after 10,000 years of seclusion.
This... is not justifiable, right?
Of course, the game officials later rounded this problem back. According to the official explanation of the plot in the game, although the Chaos Legion was sealed in the Eye of Terror because of the Black Hole Project and has not come out, this does not mean that they have been sleeping on straw and eating gall. On the contrary, this group of people fought more fiercely in the Eye of Terror for limited resources. After all, several legions originally disliked each other, and the evil gods they believed in also disliked each other, and the demon primarchs also disliked each other.
Without the external enemy of the Empire to build consensus and provide resource supplies, the rest is naturally civil strife.
Coupled with the curve loyalty of the tyrannical wrath, the result is that there is a small fight every three days and a big fight every five days in the Eye of Terror. After so many years of fighting, it has long been seriously injured. Therefore, as the evil god gradually recovers and its power begins to increase, these traitors can't wait to come out and relive the good life before.
But for Duanmu Huai, the most important point is that his luck is really good.
If he hadn't brought Tutu with him and bumped into the halfling, Duanmu Huai wouldn't have found the Lord of the Fly Nest so quickly. The individual combat power of the followers of the Corrupted Stain is actually average. The infection and spread of viruses and plagues are their strengths. Fortunately, the Lord of the Fly Nest has just started to make trouble, and the scope has not exceeded a limit. Once it takes shape, even Duanmu Huai will have trouble dealing with it.
To put it bluntly, in terms of frontal combat power, the tyrannical wrath is the strongest.
In terms of stabbing in the back, the obsessive evil is first-class.
Those who are crazy and claim that everything is under control are mostly related to the treacherous trickery.
But in terms of disgusting degree and endless harm, it must be the Corrupted Stain.
It's like a sharp blade covered with rice fields chopped down at you, even if it can't hurt you, it can disgust you to death.
What Duanmu Huai is doing now is like directly chopping the person when the other party is holding a sword to find a dung bucket. In this way, at least there is no need to worry that it will... Woo, I can't say it anymore.
So the biggest hero of this battle is actually Tutu.
Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai once again looked at the rabbit sleeping comfortably in Mary's arms with satisfaction. Sure enough, no matter what you do, luck is the most important. Otherwise, you will only become a joke like Abaddon who wins every battle.
If he didn't bring the rabbit, Duanmu Huai might not have encountered a victim just after entering the Lost Land, and then found the location of the Lord of the Fly Nest. In that case, when the Lord of the Fly Nest starts operating, it will be much more difficult for Duanmu Huai to fight, but now... it's okay.
"Uh... Sir Knight."
Standing next to Duanmu Huai, looking at the Lost Land in the distance, An's expression twitched a little.
"Are you really going to do this?"
"Of course, Chaos must be purified. We are not sure whether there is still shit left by that guy in this area, and I am not interested in searching everywhere in every corner, so - just tear it down and rebuild it."
As he spoke, Duanmu Huai pressed the button in his hand.
The halfling couldn't imagine what she saw.
It was a scene that could not be imagined even in the wrath of God. The entire Lost Land and the surrounding forests suddenly exploded. Huge flames emerged from the ground, making her eyes almost pure white. She screamed, closed her eyes, and fell to her knees. The earth trembled, as if the whole world was about to collapse completely. The whistling wind was deafening, and the violent airflow almost made it difficult to breathe.
The halfling curled up on the ground, crying, trembling, praying to her god, or even she herself didn't know what she was thinking, she just thought she was going to die, and the world was going to be destroyed.
After an unknown amount of time, the halfling raised her head tremblingly, and in front of her, the entire Lost Land had completely changed into another look - the whole world seemed to be burned to ashes, leaving only a piece of charred land. And the people who were originally around her also disappeared.
"This... I... ..."
The halfling stood up and looked around in confusion. For a moment, she wondered if she was dreaming, but soon, she pulled her face hard.
Not a dream!
Those mysterious people disappeared, but the Lost Land in front of them... must be reported immediately! !
In fact, at the same time, in the High Forest, Silvermoon City and Waterdeep City, the huge explosions and flashes produced by the Lost Land caused great panic. Many people witnessed the dazzling light like the sun that almost swallowed everything. The earth was shaking violently, and even the air was exploding. Many people thought that the end of the world had suddenly arrived, and they knelt on the ground in fear and cried and prayed.
This certainly brought great chaos to the city, and for those rulers, they also wanted to find out what happened.
Only Khelben Black Staff felt depressed after hearing the news.
Others didn't know what happened, but this great wizard was not stupid. He had just given Duanmu Huai and others information about the Lost Land. Now there was such a violent explosion in the Lost Land. Of course, ordinary people might not be able to do it, but considering that the Inquisition was likely to have killed the Spider Queen Rose's forces with their own hands, it was hard to say what they could do.
But... I heard that the Supreme Forest seemed to have been harmed by this, and many of the luxurious buildings in Silvermoon City were damaged because of this, and even Waterdeep City...
"Our buildings have been severely damaged!"
The masked lord standing on the other side of the magic mirror was extremely indignant.
"What happened in the Lost Land? We need to solve this problem immediately! Master Khelben! This terrible power is horrifying. If it happened in Waterdeep, I'm afraid we wouldn't even have bones left!"
"Okay, I got it. I'll find a way to investigate what happened."
Khelben said a few words casually and sent away the extremely angry masked lords, but the next moment his magic mirror began to flash again, and this time the person who appeared in the mirror was the most respected wizard in Silvermoon City - Alustriel.
"Master Khelben."
"Hello, Ms. Alustriel."
Khelben's smile was a little stiff.
"I think you are also here for the changes in the Lost Land."
"That's right."
Alustriel nodded solemnly. Some people said that it was magic out of control, and some people thought it was a punishment from heaven, but we did not notice the condensation and flow of magic power, let alone the intervention of divine power. We must figure out what all this happened from. If it was just a disaster, then how did this disaster happen?
"……………You make sense………………"
Khelbourne nodded silently.
"So what do you think? Is this a natural disaster?"
"No."
Alastor shook his head.
"I think this is most likely a man-made disaster. Before any natural disaster comes, there must be some signs, but the Lost Land... Well, I admit that the Lost Land has been a little abnormal recently. Because of this, we are more and more suspicious whether this is the work of some evil force. So, we hope to form a joint investigation team to investigate this."
"Uh... What do you mean... ..."
"Silvermoon City and the Supreme Forest will send teams to join in. In fact, we already have some clues."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Khelbourne immediately perked up.
"You mean, you already have clues about this disaster?"
"Yes, a halfling adventurer came to Silvermoon City and met me. She claimed that a powerful black steel demon caused the explosion. This matter is of great importance. Although I don't think there will be demons here, we must act with caution."
The huge black steel demon... um...
"Master Khelben, what do you think of this issue? Is Waterdeep City willing to join this investigation?"
"Of course... I will select representatives as soon as possible and meet with you."
Khelben decided not to say that he asked Duanmu Huai and others to go to the Lost Land.
As for the losses in those places, just treat it as a natural disaster.
It has nothing to do with me anyway.
Facts have proved that Khelben's idea of protecting himself is correct.
