In myths and legends, after Seth killed Osiris, he cruelly cut his body into 14 pieces, and then threw him into the mortal world and the underworld.
But Osiris still had a backup plan. Every piece of his body contained part of his power and life essence, which Seth was not aware of.
Therefore, when Osiris's widow, the Lady of the River, Isis, after going through all kinds of hardships to find all his limbs, she went through a special ceremony and finally succeeded in resurrecting him and became the god of death in the underworld again.
Isis even had a romantic relationship with her and gave birth to another son of God - Horus, the God of Vengeance.
Horus went through a series of trials, received help from the gods, and obtained a variety of artifacts used by Osiris. Finally, he successfully killed the traitor Set and regained the throne.
Now, according to the known intelligence, Seth probably used that coffin to move the body of Osiris away, and then he would most likely choose to dismember the body and then abandon it.
Levi's goal is the remains of Osiris.
Although Horus only had the power to kill Seth after a series of deeds, the remains of Osiris obviously possess extremely powerful power to give birth to such a son of god.
The most ideal situation is that Levi successfully finds all the fragments of Osiris, uses them for himself, and then becomes a god again in his identity.
But that is basically impossible. Not to mention Ms. Kawakawa, Isis is very likely to know her husband's backhand. Osiris's mother and grandmother, etc., may also know part of the inside story.
But as long as he gets one or a few of them, coupled with Li Wei's previous accumulation, it will be enough for him to successfully become a god!
So this wait lasted for ten days. During this period, dozens of gods arrived one after another in batches.
Most of the first batch were gods related to death, or gods with territories in the underworld. They were the first to notice the fall of Osiris and were relatively close to here, so they rushed here as soon as possible.
After that, there are those who are interested in the priesthood and field of death, want to make some bargains, or are simply curious about how Osiris died.
These include greenskins, goblins, humans, dwarves, halflings and other pantheons, and of course the elven gods are also indispensable.
However, Levi and the others had no intention of coming forward to communicate, and even continued to move their hiding places further away from the pyramid of Osiris.
Only after each other party leaves, they will roughly judge the other party's identity based on the faint remaining fluctuations in divine power.
There is no way. Strictly speaking, the two goddesses who follow Li Wei are almost at the bottom among the gods. If you want to take advantage of this situation, you must be extremely careful.
Fortunately, scorpions are very good at lurking in the sand. As the poisonous scorpion goddess, Serekite is naturally more proficient in concealing aura. They arrived earlier, so this kind of lurking went smoothly.
Of course, the two goddesses could understand why Li Wei was so cautious, which made them somewhat ashamed.
But Li Wei comforted them in turn, saying that it was really not their fault.
For any race, Hathor's three divine functions of moon, mother and fertility are absolutely indispensable.
But it is obvious that the Egyptian pantheon needs living people the most. Hathor has been around for so many years, but he is still only a weak god.
The most common terrain in the Tomb King's territory is the desert. In the desert, snakes, lizards, beetles, scorpions and other related existences are basically the largest in number and variety.
Despite this, Serekite has always only had a weak divine power, only slightly stronger than the giant crocodile Sobek, but it is also very limited.
The two goddesses were having a worse time than the other, which of course could only be because Osiris didn't want them to become too strong.
For Osiris, even if they join the divine system, because of their bloodline, they cannot become his true confidants at all, and they are existences that always need to be on guard.
It was Osiris's grandfather who made Serekite a god, not him.
Osiris usually treats the gods like this, so it's no wonder that after he was killed by Seth, no one was willing to stand up for him.
The only God of War who went head-to-head with Set, Anho, did it for himself, not for Osiris.
As more and more gods visit, the atmosphere nearby becomes more and more chaotic, and Li Wei and the others' lurking becomes gradually easier.
To be on the safe side, Li Wei sent Elegy and others back to the main world early, allowing them to participate in the war with the Chaos Dwarves.
He himself continued to absorb the knowledge of Osiris. While becoming more and more familiar with the underworld, he also made rapid progress in mastering the many dark and necromantic powers recorded in the nine volumes of Nagash.
In the underworld, the most indispensable thing is these powers. In this special environment, the efficiency of comprehension is much higher than in the main world.
At the same time, after learning about Levi's purpose, Yue Gong also quietly sent 1 point of death divinity to help him understand the related power at a higher level.
But those mummy legions of Osiris are more unlucky. They still keep in mind the original mission assigned by Osiris, which is to try to prevent all outsiders from intruding.
But the first ones to arrive are basically all gods, and some of them are from the evil camp. Who will tolerate them?
So it didn't take long for them to be completely killed. The temple of Osiris was used as a back garden by various beings who visited it countless times.
Even later, various undead people began to sneak over to join in the fun. They packed up everything they could and took away everything. Even the ruined temple was rummaged through several times.
As long as something is contaminated with the aura of Osiris, even if it is just a few bricks and stones, it still has a certain value to them.
Later, occasionally some demons or demons would come, seemingly wanting to see if there were any souls available for plunder, but of course they could only come in joy and return disappointed.
Occasionally, those who are unlucky, whether they encounter other gods or the undead, will only die.
The gods are motivated by hatred, the undead are motivated by hatred for their competitors, and the undead also need souls.
At the same time, the civil strife in the Egyptian pantheon not only did not stop, but also tended to intensify, because Seth was not in the right position after all.
Isis, the widow of Osiris, Lady of the River, was unyielding about this. Let’s not mention the bad things about Osiris. She was the one who really died of her husband.
And as time went by, everyone discovered that Seth's wife, Nephthys, and the newly born son of god, Anubis, never appeared.
Although there have been no changes in Nephthys' kingdom for the time being, there has been no response to the prayers of believers, which seems to indicate that she is being imprisoned by Seth in some way.
Considering that Osiris died so quickly, both Tefnut and other relatives, as well as several neutral gods who originally wanted to ignore the matter, gradually came up with new ideas.
If Seth could kill his brother to seize the throne, imprison his wife, and who knows what he did to the innocent son of God, Anubis, then once he really secured his position as the God King, it would be more powerful than Osiris.
It's not a good thing for other gods who are far behind.
So Anhe, the God of War, who was isolated and helpless within the pantheon, began to receive constant help.
In the main world, because the God of War An'he also has a good reputation among the Tomb Kings, even the Immortal Emperor temporarily gave up the war at hand and began to help him fight Set.
Therefore, although Seth showed an overwhelming advantage in terms of divine level, in the actual battle, he did not have an absolute chance of victory, and the black giant python never appeared, which made this
The chaos inside the stadium became more and more stalemate.
At the same time, the invasion of the Chaos Dwarves became more and more rampant, and the high elves in the colony were temporarily unable to win or lose.
This is partly because the Chaos Dwarves, who possess railways and a variety of war equipment, support each other too quickly and their firepower is too fierce.
Even the demon sorcerers of the Chaos Dwarves seem to have received some kind of special enhancement. They have both melee and spell-casting abilities, and can ride flying mounts such as the Lamassu Taurus. They are really difficult to deal with.
If you are not careful, the high elves' army may suffer extremely heavy casualties.
In addition, the opponent's leader is the legendary Chaos Dwarf hero Blackheart Zatan, making it difficult to determine the outcome of this war immediately.
Although Princess Elandra wanted to win more beautifully, she would not be stupid enough to sacrifice the lives of a large number of elves, because such a victory would not mean much.
In fact, she has gradually given up on her original idea, because many of the performances of the Chaos Dwarves are obviously driven by the god they believe in, Hasut, and she is not strong enough to compete with the god.
So now she has decided to play it slow and steady without losing an inch of ground, and the outside world will not be able to find much fault.
Donna, Elegy, Cindy, Sefa and others have also proven their strength on the battlefield, established their respective reputations, and are getting closer and closer to the legend.
Then came Kael'thas, Luna, Zhou Miyin and others. Before this, although they had some strength, their popularity was only limited to a small area. Now they have a chance to become famous.
On the other hand, the cooperation between the Chaos Dwarves and the Norscans has also been confirmed.
To be more precise, they cooperated with the Norscans who were blessed by the four gods of Chaos. The Chaos dwarves sold each other weapons, armor, and even a cannon called a hell cannon in exchange for a large number of slaves and slaves.
Captured demon.
Not only will there be civil war between the demons under the Four Chaos Gods and their believers, they will also launch attacks without hesitation when encountering other demons from the Abyss or the Nine Hells.
Originally it was just for killing, but suddenly, some smart guy came up with a new idea and successfully tasted the benefits. In a very short period of time, this kind of transaction quickly expanded countless times.
Now, there are even the cults of the Four Gods of Chaos gradually beginning to work for the Chaos Dwarves directly or indirectly.
Especially the Khorne Order among them. They and the gods they believe in only want to see rivers of blood flowing, but they don't care who the owner of the blood is.
Cooperate with the Chaos Dwarves to fight against the greenskins or dwarves. Not only can they achieve this goal, but they can also obtain sophisticated weapons and armor to help them kill better, so they naturally have no reason to refuse.
For the Chaos Dwarves, the demons under the Four Chaos Gods are all rare types. If they are put on their war equipment, they might be able to come up with some new tricks, so they all get what they need.
In addition, the Chaos Dwarves also prefer Khorne among them. In addition to the fact that the other party is the most cooperative, it probably has something to do with the fact that some of the troops in both armies have strong elements.
However, at present, the Chaos Dwarves still only cooperate with four types of Chaos Orders, rather than four types of demons.
Even though the powers used are very similar, there are still many differences between demons and mortals corrupted by demons in many aspects such as their way of thinking and actual actions.
But with the Great Horned Rat of the Skaven in front of him, no one is sure whether Hasut will eventually have a relationship with the Four Gods of Chaos.
At the same time, Rose still didn't calm down, and she continued to cause new chaos.
She destroyed many of the armies and military fortresses stationed by the high elves in dangerous areas such as the Antarctic and the North Pole, and a considerable amount of evil from other worlds broke into the main world as a result.
Although the elves and gods are also on guard, their numbers are limited. They have killed all the demons, but they cannot take care of all places at all times.
If they were scattered, few of them would be Rose's opponents. If they really lost a few incarnations of God in Rose's hands, they would be even more at a loss than if hundreds or even thousands of ordinary elves died.
In addition, colonies around the world began to be invaded by various evil forces, so after a short meeting, Corellon finally decided to use divine power to seal these abyss rifts, then shrink its power and abandon most of the fortresses.
This is not entirely because they cannot continue to bear this kind of loss, but also because these abyss rifts are a common threat to the entire main world. Why should they, the elves, bear all the responsibility?
When the elves were at their most powerful, they voluntarily took on these tasks out of their kind nature, but that didn't mean that it really became their lifelong responsibility.
The shrinking power can also better resist Rose's next conspiracy, because they all know that Rose will never be satisfied just by sending those demons or the Devourer of Elves to the main world.
It was more like she was testing something, and this was probably just part of a conspiracy on her part.
Some human gods were quite critical of Corellon's behavior, believing that he should not give up the honor of resisting evil so simply, or at least find someone willing to accept this responsibility.
Well, the key point is the latter sentence, because once the elves give up this responsibility, the unlucky ones may be humans.
But Corellon was dismissive. Their elves had shouldered the responsibility selflessly for so many years, and they didn't even get a few good words. The so-called glory was not worth the elf's life.
Moreover, the human gods are now suffering from internal and external troubles. They held a meeting before and said they would join forces to defeat Cyric. As a result, except for the goddess of the magic network who is Cyric's mortal enemy, the god of death Klanvor and the black king Bane, there are not many at all.
Someone who really takes action.
They are all busy helping their believers fight against demons, ratmen, beastmen, etc. How many gods are willing to accept this responsibility?
But, as a god king, Corellon has to put on a show and try to find some people to come over, even for the sake of face.
In the end, I don't know what his considerations were, but he gave this task to Lilith.
Lilith lived up to expectations and successfully found the Three Saints of Justice headed by Tyr.
All of them are in the Lawful Good camp, as well as the paladins under their command, who are truly willing to die to protect goodness and justice.
In addition, some lizardmen also volunteered to take over this part of the defense mission.
Many lizardmen firmly believe that the world was created by the Old Saints they believe in, so they are willing to protect the world even for the sake of the Old Saints.
It's just that most of the Lizardmen's energy is now focused on Lustria. Even Kuga wants to give up his territory and return to Lustria with his troops, so it's hard to say how much force they can really send.
.
Despite this, many elves and gods have truly seen Lilith's abilities.
Looking again at Yuebow, Sobek, Illidan and Imric, who had maintained close alliances with her, they suddenly discovered that the weak and pure girl god they had previously known seemed to be unconsciously...
It has also grown up.
However, these have little to do with Li Wei for the time being. For him, the most important thing at the moment is to continue to lurk in the underworld, waiting for an opportunity.
The two goddesses have always been with Li Wei. Anyway, their bodies have been moved to a safe position, and the most core fanatic believers in the Kingdom of God have also made certain preparations.
For them, whose lifespan is theoretically unlimited, spending a little time here for Levi is nothing.
After waiting for more than half a month, the temple of Osiris was completely deserted. Under the influence of the rich power of death in the underworld, some low- and middle-level undead gradually began to wander around.
From prosperity to decline, it took less than a month, which is really disappointing.
During this period, good news also came from the Watcher. He has made great progress in his research on Little Zeus, especially since the Watcher has received additional help from Heaven Mountain. It seems that even Heaven Mountain is very
I hope Levi can become a god as soon as possible.
Even the watchers couldn't help but sigh. It seems that Heaven Mountain really has high hopes for the first legendary celestial mystic in history.
But after all, this was about becoming a god, and the Watcher had never been a god, so he could only speculate based on his experience. The specific details would require Li Wei to go to Paradise Mountain again to truly determine.
But Levi did not have time to go to Heaven Mountain for the time being, because during this period of time, while he was further improving his death-related powers, he also gradually discovered a major doubt.
That is, after the fall of Osiris, no soul appeared in his underworld.
Although the proportion of living people in the Tomb Kings' territory is very low, it has been such a long time and it is impossible that not a single person has died.
There are only two possibilities for the current situation. One is that their souls were intercepted by other gods of death or demons, devils, etc.
It is possible for Cyric to do such a thing, but he seems to be busy brainwashing his followers on a large scale and fighting against the attacks of Klenvor and other gods, so he probably doesn't have the energy.
Another possibility is that there are gods in the Egyptian pantheon who have opened up new territories in other parts of the underworld and accepted those souls.
For example, Anubis, the Son of God, has not been seen since his birth.
Although he is not the real god of death, if he is only used to guide the soul and wait for the god to whom the soul belongs to come and receive it, his priesthood will undoubtedly be very suitable.
It’s just that it’s not yet certain whether Set killed Anubis, obtained the other party’s priesthood, and then went into battle himself.
Or maybe Seth used some kind of trick to trick the other party into working for him.
Li Wei is more inclined to the latter.
On the one hand, this is because in myths and legends, Seth did this. On the other hand, Seth is now unable to do anything at all.
He has to fight wars with the God of War - An'ho and others, win over gods such as Tefnut, and is busy competing for faith with the snake god - Mershok. He also has to be wary of other external gods, such as the green-skinned gods.
Take advantage of the situation and rob.
Under such circumstances, does he really still have the energy to manage the underworld?
But this chaotic situation is more and more beneficial to Levi's plan, otherwise Seth in a normal state would not be able to spy on him with two goddesses with weak divine power.
After a few more days, the opportunity Levi had been waiting for finally arrived.
Silently, three pieces of very ordinary-looking, broken limbs suddenly appeared on the ruins of the temple. It didn't look like they were thrown out, but more like some preset teleportation circle had been triggered.
.
Serekite, who had been waiting for a long time, directly activated the quicksand whirlpool and swallowed them up. The next moment, the limbs appeared in front of Levi.
A left arm with a palm, a right foot, and a bare chest.
No one said anything. The two goddesses immediately sealed dozens or hundreds of layers of divine power to ensure that no existence would find them here, and then they stopped one after another.
At the same time, the look in Levi's eyes became obviously different. Did he expect this kind of thing to happen nearly a month in advance?
But they were all a little confused, because these broken entities looked like the divided bodies of ordinary humans, without any aura belonging to God on them. Could they really be what Levi wanted?
Li Wei didn't say anything, he just gestured to the two goddesses to feel them personally with him.
After all, speculation is just speculation, now is the time to truly verify it to see if they are the remains of Osiris!
However, after several attempts, the two goddesses were a little discouraged, because apart from being relatively tough, they seemed to be really ordinary bodies with no remaining power at all.
But Li Wei has not lost confidence. Gods are actually existences condensed by divine power. They often become like demons after death. Their corpses quickly dissipate between heaven and earth. Now they still maintain their physical form, which itself has explained.
question.
The reason why the two goddesses feel no abnormality at all now can only mean that Osiris really has a problem.
But it’s no wonder, if you don’t have some means, how can you deceive Seth?
After trying a few more times, the two goddesses looked at each other and shook their heads, indicating that they had indeed tried their best.
Li Wei also gained nothing. Finally, after thinking about it, he used the power of the god of death.
So a few minutes later, even as calm as he was, he could not suppress his excitement for a while, because he felt the fragments of divinity and godhead contained in it, and even fragments of priesthood!
Osiris didn't know how he deceived Set, but under the stimulation of the god of death, they could no longer escape.
He immediately turned to look at the other two limbs, and the result was the same.
There are three parts of limbs here, which contain at least 5 fragments of godhead and 8 points of divinity!
It's not in vain that he has been waiting here for nearly a month. As long as he can extract and transform it into his own power, he will immediately become a real God of Death.
He nodded vigorously to the two goddesses who were waiting eagerly, and told them the news.
Even though they had already guessed through Li Wei's actions, after receiving Li Wei's affirmation, the two goddesses couldn't help but burst into joy.
This month doesn't matter, but from time to time gods more powerful than them arrive, which really puts a lot of psychological pressure on them. Now it's finally time to reap the rewards!
"Levi, will you join Lilith immediately, or continue to stay in the underworld?"
Li Wei pondered for a moment and hesitated for a moment.
On the one hand, he wanted to continue waiting to see if it was possible to harvest more remains.
But on the other hand, it is also very important to purify the consciousness on the residual body as soon as possible and truly transform it into his power.
After thinking about it, he chose the latter. What he ate in his stomach was truly his own.
But before he could open his mouth, an invisible wave of divine power swept over their location, and the faces of the two goddesses suddenly froze, because they knew that they had been discovered.
After lurking for so long, someone finally noticed them.
They immediately wanted to open the portal and send Li Wei away with these remains. After all, no matter which god the other party was, it was basically impossible to be weaker than the two of them.
But after a brief period of shock, Levi stopped their movements with a smile, because he sensed the identity of the other party, or in other words, the other party deliberately let him perceive it.
He is the Lord of the end of all things - Jergal.
Lilith had obtained part of the knowledge of death from Jergal before, but now it was the other party who came to her door. This is really
But whether it is a pure coincidence or intentional, it is actually not important anymore. What is important is the purpose of the other party's appearance.
However, Li Wei is still optimistic about this. As the strongest god of death in the past, Yerge voluntarily gave up most of his power and just maintained a state of indifference. How could he think so highly of himself now?
Woolen cloth?
What's more, the underworld is the opponent's main venue. With Jergal's strength, we may not even be able to resist, so we might as well be more generous.
The next moment, a very typical Death God wearing a black robe and holding a sickle appeared in Li Wei's hiding place.
But unlike the terrifying corpse image in the legend, Jergo now looks like a somewhat old human man, and he can even be called kind.
Both goddesses looked surprised, because the many warnings and triggers they had arranged in advance did not take effect at all, as if the other party did not exist at all.
However, Li Wei immediately bowed his head and saluted to the other party, saying as a junior: "Li Wei has met His Highness Jergo. Thank you for the precious knowledge you gave me before."
As he spoke, he also gestured to the two goddesses.
When Jergal was at its most glorious, their Egyptian pantheon did not yet exist. Showing respect to such an ancient existence would not belittle one's own identity.
Although they didn't know much about Jergal and only knew that he had a weak divine power, the skill he just showed was enough to make the two goddesses fearful, so they both chose to follow Li Wei's advice.
Jergal also responded politely, but everyone present knew that his real attention was always on Levi.
After returning the gift, Jege also said with some emotion: "Levi, I have a question, what kind of existence is telling you that the remains of Osiris will appear here?"
The opponent's talent, strength, and even background are not important to him.
As a mortal, but still vaguely the leader of the two goddesses, this is indeed worthy of his high regard, but considering the strength of the two goddesses, it is actually nothing more than that.
But what really makes Yege unbelievable is that Levi was waiting here a month in advance, as if he already knew Osiris's back-up plan.
Li Wei didn't expect that Ye Ge would be so direct, but the answer to this question is
He immediately smiled slightly: "No one has ever told me about this, and I haven't conducted any relevant investigations, but I do know."
Because he made inferences based on myths and legends in the real world.
But it was impossible for Jergal to know this, so his face instantly became serious because he judged immediately that Li Wei was not lying at all.
Combined with some of the information he had collected before, he couldn't help but wonder, is there really an infinitely powerful person above all the gods?
Or is this a predetermined fate?
Even if he is a god, he has to admit that there are still many things in this world that he cannot fully understand.
Although God is omnipotent, he is not omniscient and omnipotent.
I don’t know how much Jergo thought, but after a few seconds, he expressed his attitude with practical actions:
"Levi, if you want to purify and absorb these powers, how about you come to my kingdom of God and let me help you?"
As soon as the words came out, the two goddesses were very nervous. Even if they roughly judged that Yege really didn't have any hostility towards Li Wei, if they went to the other's kingdom, they would be completely at the mercy of the other.
Levi pondered for a moment. Before that, Jergal had contributed to or witnessed the birth of many gods related to death, from the three gods of death at the beginning to Kelanvor and Cyric later.
There are even rumors recently that the reason why Arthas was able to obtain Cranvor's asylum in the first place was because he had already established a certain relationship with Jergal, and it was Jergal who acted as such a middleman.
At the same time, Jergal has been serving as an advisor to many gods of death.
Does this mean that he actually has a habit of being a teacher, or is it also an investment?
In addition, Lilith was able to obtain some knowledge from the other party before, indicating that the two parties also have a certain degree of friendship, and Yerge should not be in trouble because of this petty gain.
But if you agree to Jegob, you may gain more than you imagine.
Although Jergal now only has a weak divine power, when it comes to many knowledge in the field of death, even the powerful Kelanvor cannot defeat him.
With his mind racing, Li Wei immediately smiled and nodded: "If it is an invitation from His Highness Jergal, then I naturally have no reason to refuse!"
