Chapter 355 Why

Evil Thought was venting his beliefs crazily, but Helsik didn't have the time to care about him at this time.

She didn't expect what happened in front of her. The little thief who broke into the eighth prison could actually escape after activating the defense measures of Mephisto's treasure house?

She didn't dare to think of such a thing, but no matter how unbelievable it was, the fact had already happened in front of her. This sudden accident caught her off guard. Now Helsik was so scared!

"Hey! That Dragonborn, don't go crazy there! Whether your goal is achieved or not, you'd better leave here quickly now. I don't want to know what you got from there. I have never seen you. After you step out of this door, whether it is you or Gotash, there is no relationship between us!"

Hersik's words finally made the crazy spirit of evil thoughts recover a little. He looked at the dwarf in front of him with an unfriendly look. I don't know what he thought of, but a trace of saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Helsik felt a huge chill at that moment, but before she had time to think about it, Xie Nian had already stood up, with his broken left hand drooping on one side, and his right hand holding the crown. He slowly opened the door step by step, and saw Gotash staring at him with eager eyes downstairs.

"How is it! Did you succeed? Xie Nian!"

The White Dragonborn nodded silently and showed the three pieces of iron in his arms. Gotash knew that it was the crown he had been thinking about! The legendary artifact of the Nestriel Empire! The treasure of the Ascended God Karsus!

"This is really... great! I knew you could do it! Xie Nian!"

Xie Nian did not reply, because he was seriously injured now. Baal's divine power had transformed his body and gave him extraordinary vitality, but the divine power of the God of Murder could not have a healing effect no matter what. It is better to say that on the contrary, the divine blood in Xie Nian's body suppressed items such as healing potions.

Because of the power of the God of Murder in his body, these potions that could help others heal their wounds were completely useless to him, which made Xie Nian rely on his own self-healing ability to slowly heal once he was injured.

Feeling the pain in his left hand, Xie Nian's deep bloodthirsty desire suddenly surged into his heart again, but he was quickly suppressed by his own willpower. He knew that now was not the time to indulge his instincts. Now he urgently needed treatment and recovery.

So Xie Nian directly threw 1/3 of the crown in his hand to Gotash, and he kept the remaining 2/3.

Gotash excitedly took the one that belonged to him.

This was the distribution method they had discussed before. Because of the uniqueness of the crown of Karsus, each of them, the elects of the three gods of death, could get a part of the crown. Although the split crown would definitely not be able to exert the power of the complete crown, even this alone could provide considerable help.

'Great, with this artifact, those damn Gond believers can finally shut up completely! I will completely control those damn dwarves! I will get a higher status with the Iron Guard! I can even become... a hero of Baldur's Gate! Haha, it sounds really ironic. '

Gotash fell into endless fantasies at this time. Ever since he got the whereabouts of this artifact in Raphael's House of Hope, he has been looking forward to the arrival of this day, and today, his dream has finally come true! Now that the artifact is in hand, all the difficulties he has faced will no longer be difficulties!

"It's time to go, Gotash, the owner here doesn't welcome us anymore, don't stay here too long."

Evil Thought greeted Gotash, then turned around and left with his hood up. Gotash also put away his excitement, put the crown back in his arms, and left the Devil's Tip with Evil Thought. However, although he was on his way home, Gotash's excitement was far stronger than Evil Thought. After obtaining the crown, his smart brain began to calculate non-stop. He was thinking about how to use this crown to achieve his goals.

‘Karsus’ crown, it is said that the wearer will instantly gain full control over his own power. It is rumored that the crown of Karsus contains the Karsus magic net created by Karsus when he ascended to the gods. With this independent magic net, the wearer can even completely bypass the power of the goddess of magic and cast spells independently with his own ability. ’

‘This is the most widely circulated function of this artifact. I have to say that it is indeed very powerful, especially for mages. It is a cross-era increase, but unfortunately, I am not a mage. Even if I have the ability to bypass the magic net to cast spells, it will not have any fundamental improvement for me. When using this ability, I may even anger the goddess of magic. It is really not worth the loss. But it doesn’t matter. The crown has another function, and that function is truly useful to me! ’

Another function that Gotash mentioned is the crown’s complete control over its own power. This ability sounds a bit difficult to understand. To put it simply, anyone who wears this crown can instantly understand everything they have mastered. Whether it is physical actions or the development of the mind, the crown can allow you to use it to the perfect degree.

It doesn’t sound very good, but in fact it is just the passive effect of the crown itself. The essence of this ability is not the complete control over oneself, but the three words behind it [control].

That's right. The wearer of the crown can not only fully control himself, but also others. It is said that Karsus once used the three gems that can amplify and distort power to directly plunder the power and magic net of the goddess of magic, which allowed him to build his own magic net and successfully ascend to godhood for a short time!

This crown can even forcibly plunder the power and magic net! Not to mention controlling a few disobedient thorns, there is absolutely no difficulty!

However, now that the crown has been split, with only 1/3 in his hand, it is impossible to determine what role this thing can play. After returning, he must experiment well, but he has a hunch that this artifact will definitely bring him a huge surprise!

...

Three days later, Gotash, holding the gem, looked at the Bane believer in front of him who only wore 1/3 of the crown, but had no self-awareness at all, and just passively obeyed the orders of the gem holder.

Gotash was completely confused.

"...Why, it turned out like this?"
