Eilistraee said goodbye and left, preparing to mobilize the surviving drow elves to start the great migration.
Lilith and Yue Gong both looked at Levi: "Eilistraee is not sure of the purpose of Rose's sacrifice. Levi, do you have any ideas?"
Generally speaking, sacrificial rituals are either to gain power or to resurrect some powerful evil beings, but during the battle in the Kingdom of Avandor, Rose did not show any signs of this aspect.
"Perhaps, it has something to do with the Aegis Celestial Clan. If Corellon is bewitched by Slaanesh, Rose will definitely have a back-up plan."
Lilith nodded silently. This was also her guess, so without saying a word, she began to fully utilize the network of relationships she had accumulated over thousands of years.
Rose's attack this time is menacing, but in fact, the existences she is entangled with are all for profit. There is no way they can truly serve Rose, let alone be willing to make sacrifices for Rose.
As long as we can give them a head-on blow, scare them, and make them understand that the risks outweigh the benefits, they will naturally retreat, because this is the way for the evil gods to survive.
As long as we survive the most ferocious wave of attacks, we will have plenty of time to settle accounts with them in the future!
Speaking of which, she would also like to thank Gulamba a little. If it hadn't been for his appearance, she wouldn't have been absolutely sure that she would have asked him to take action.
But Yue Gong was a little anxious: "So, who is the existence we want to see next?"
She also knew that Corellon had many weaknesses, and she was also very dissatisfied with Corellon's attitude towards Levi and Lilith, but no matter what, she was Corellon's daughter after all, and she could not just sit idly by.
Levi didn't say much, but silently took out the shadow priesthood obtained from Mask.
He originally planned to keep it for Mortred, but at that time he received a message from a goddess who needed it for a transaction.
Lilith's heart suddenly moved, and Yue Gong couldn't help but grin: "No way, Levi, do you know what it means to trade with that goddess?"
Shar, Rose and Benshaba are the three most dangerous goddesses in the Zodiac.
Rose is because of her madness, and Benshaba is because of her unreasonable bad luck and freewheeling personality. In comparison, Shar's reputation seems to be much better than the other two.
But that's just because Shar is always focused on dealing with her sister, Selun, and she has basically no interest in other gods or mortals.
But once Shar decides to take action, it basically means that his opponent has no chance to resist.
The former God of the Underdark - Albrandor, the God of Shadows and Fear - Ishoudo, etc., all died like this. They often didn't know who their enemies were until they died.
Other gods who have offended Shar will basically be punished miserably, so now apart from Selun, Lathander is probably the only one who is so stubborn and dares to be an enemy of Shar.
"Of course I know, but it's really hard for me to refuse the offer she made. Don't you think death and darkness, night or fear are all very compatible? Not to mention there is a goddess as a gift."
"Besides, she has probably completely destroyed Mask's kingdom now, so I have to accept her a little favor."
Although Levi didn't think Shar could be so generous, he had to admit that Shar's conditions were indeed very generous.
Yue Gong was a little speechless, while Lilith was thoughtful: "Is it Bastet?"
It's not a secret that Shar is dealing with, or playing with, Bastet, because Shar never thought of deliberately hiding it from the beginning to the end.
As of now, probably Anhe and Bast are the only ones who are still kept in the dark.
No, maybe even Bastet herself knows about this, but she can't get rid of her playful and adventurous nature because she is a cat.
Maybe she thought she would have a chance to escape? But little did she know, that opportunity might have been deliberately given to her by Shar.
Levi nodded. According to his plan, he wanted to trade with Shar first, and then sell Bast to Anhe, preferably in exchange for the other party's war priesthood.
With An He's infatuation, the chance is still very high.
Because Levi recently did some targeted research, and he found that Bastet wore more hats for Anhe than usual.
No matter gods or mortals, men or women, as long as Bast is interested, she can give them one or more free wonderful experiences.
She even seemed to have given birth to Silventarm, the patron saint of drow warriors and the weak god Velen, with Eilistraee's brother, the masked king Velen, a weak god of the drow elves.
Because the latter is a god, it is relatively easy to investigate. However, Levi is temporarily unable to find out whether Bastet has given birth to more offspring with other mortal beings.
What he can be sure of is that despite this situation, Anhe still loves Bastet so firmly. It must be true love, and he should be willing to pay some price.
"In this case, we might want to change the trading venue."
Although she is the oldest goddess, Shar does not particularly care about things like face. If possible, she is absolutely willing to take advantage of others. It is best not to give her any chance.
"Of course, we have made an appointment to meet in Joseph Garden."
The camp attribute of Joseph Garden is Chaotic Good and Neutral, and the kingdoms of gods such as Tyr, Eilistraee, Selun and Velkor are all located in it.
But there is a special alien among them, and that is Shar.
Yes, it is obviously a neutral evil camp, but Shar built the Kingdom of God in Joseph Garden. This has always puzzled the gods because the camp attributes there will have a more obvious impact on Shar's power.
In the end, they could only reluctantly speculate that the reason why Shar did this was probably because he wanted to be close to Suellen and cause trouble for her every day.
But no matter what, there is a certain degree of sincerity in Shar's choice to meet there.
It didn't take long for Levi and the others to go to the Gate of the Moon in Joseph Garden, where Sha'er, with black hair like waterfalls, was waiting for them.
"Hehehe, Levi, you are here, where are the things?"
Levi showed the shadow priesthood, and then he asked: "Where is Bastet?"
Shar waved his hand, and in the next moment, a goddess with extremely thin clothes, a face full of spring, and moans from her mouth appeared next to Shar.
After appearing, she immediately hugged Shar's thigh and kept rubbing her face against him. At the same time, her eyes became more and more moist.
Levi felt that he could probably guess how Sharr played with Bast, but now it seemed that Bast was still deeply corrupted by the power of Slaanesh.
If he sold Bastet like this to Anhe, no matter how much Anhe loved Bastet, he would probably be mad, right?
Next to them, Lilith and Yue Gong also looked at each other with strange expressions on their faces, apparently they had almost thought of something similar.
But Shar had a calm face: "A Bastet, plus a priesthood, in exchange for the shadow priesthood. I wonder which one your Highness Levi has decided on?"
"I choose darkness."
The shadow priesthood originally intended for Mortred is gone, but replaced with darkness, which may be even more powerful.
From the looks of it, I still took advantage.
However, Shar is definitely not at a disadvantage, because there is a big difference in the understanding of the value of these two priesthoods between the two parties.
Shar chuckled: "Very good, I agree."
With a gentle pinch of her fingers, the Dark Priest appeared in front of her.
For a goddess like her who has existed since ancient times, even though she has been severely weakened many times, the savings and power she possesses are still beyond the imagination of ordinary gods.
Therefore, in a very short period of time, she prepared multiple priesthoods for use in transactions with Li Wei.
Now it seems that Li Wei is still very aware of current affairs and is not as open-minded as the lion. So for the sake of Jergal, she will not set other traps for him.
After looking at the priesthood, Levi did not accept it immediately. Instead, he moved his gaze to Bastet who looked like a cat in heat next to him: "Your Highness Shar, what does she look like now?"
"Oh, it's just a little bit of Slaanesh's power. I can't purify her, but I guess this shouldn't be a problem for His Highness Levi, right?"
Shar pretended to be sorry, but in fact everyone present knew that there was no way that Shar would not have a way to deal with it, and this was probably just out of her little bad taste.
In fact, Li Wei was just pretending, and this little thing was really not a problem for him.
A long time ago, Duke Lucan of the Gedin Celestial Clan assisted Levi in killing a Slaanesh Keeper, and his body was contaminated with a little bit of Slaanesh's power.
Duke Lucan did not rush to purify it, but brought it back to Paradise, where many Gedin clan members analyzed it together to prepare for the future.
Facts have proved that he was indeed very foresight, and the Gedin tribe also achieved great results. Later, those Gedin tribesmen who were summoned to the main world and fought against Slaanesh demons were almost not corrupted by Slaanesh.
.
After Li Wei became the god of light and purification, he also cooperated with the Gaidin Celestial Clan in this regard and made further progress.
His purification priesthood is not only used to purify plagues and poisons, but can also purify the corrosive effects of the four gods of chaos to a certain extent.
The reason why Levi said this was just to satisfy Shar's bad taste, and Lilith and Yue Gong knew this very well, so they also cooperated and looked worried.
This made Shar even more satisfied, so she happily made a deal with Levi.
Before leaving, she did not forget to dig a hole: "This transaction is very pleasant. If His Highness Yue Gong is determined to strengthen the Moon Priesthood in the future, maybe we will have the opportunity to continue to cooperate."
Yue Gong's face suddenly fell. As we all know, except for the Moon Queen Guiyin of the Cathay god system, the strongest moon god at present is Shar's sister and enemy Su Lun. Shar really never forgets her relationship with Su.
Don't do it right.
More importantly, whether it was Shar's intention or a simple coincidence, Yue Gong had already sensed that Su Lun's aura was nearby.
But the other party had no intention of showing up. After Shar left, Su Lun also left. I wonder if Su Lun would have any special opinions on his side because of this.
But she didn't have time to think about it for the time being, because after Shar left, Buster, who was full of spring, had already hugged her!
She had never had a similar experience before, and she immediately wanted to shout for help.
Fortunately, Lilith and Levi started their actions at the same time. The former waved out a net of mist, and the latter waved out the light of purification, then opened the portal and returned directly to Heaven Mountain.
With the help of the power of Heaven Mountain, Levi easily purified the opponent without any effort at all.
It's just that he originally thought that the other party would tempt him with beauty. Just like the rumors, Bastet habitually used her beauty and body to communicate with other beings.
Unexpectedly, Bastet was stunned for a moment when she returned to normal, and then she sighed: "I didn't expect that the one who saved me in the end was the Elf God. Maybe this is the destiny."
As soon as the words came out, Levi, Lilith and Yue Gong looked at each other, feeling a little surprised, but at the same time they felt that this seemed to be natural.
Even if there are indeed some pure fools and even unintelligent beings among the gods, such as the Great Maw God of the Ogres and the God of the Troglodyte-Laugzd, they will definitely not be Bastet.
.
"It seems like you have something you want to tell us?"
Bast did not respond immediately, but checked his own status first, and then sighed again: "Your Highnesses, do you think that Shar set a trap for me just to play with me?"
Before Li Wei and the others could respond, Buster had already continued talking on his own, letting Li Wei and the others understand a secret from thousands of years ago.
It turns out that it was not her who gave birth to the offspring of Viren, but the dancer Zantila.
Dancer-Zantila was once the god of the Uur elves and the primitive humans called the Nar. When she was attacked by the drow elves, she sacrificed herself to try to find a way to break the situation, or to obtain a relationship with the drow elves.
Peace.
But she failed, and after giving birth to Viren's son, Viren still wanted to kill her.
So she ran away and was rescued by Bastet in a critical moment.
In the end, she voluntarily merged with Bast, and Bast also inherited the power of the dancer-Zantila, as well as some relics of other elven gods of Uur.
Very few beings knew this secret, not even Lilith knew it, because after the dancer-Zantila disappeared, the elven pantheon defeated Velen, and quickly killed the other elven gods of Uur, and occupied the Uol.
The beliefs of the Er elves and the Nar people are now collectively called forest elves.
Subsequently, the elven pantheon also tried to search for traces of the dancer-Zantila, but nothing was gained, so they gave up and took the initiative to block that period of history, and completely cleaned up the records of the existence of the Uur elven gods.
.
They had also suspected Bast, and now it is widely rumored that Bast gave birth to a son to Viren, which is proof of this.
However, the Egyptian pantheon was still relatively strong at that time, and the elf pantheon probably didn't want to cause too much trouble. In addition, the things Bast obtained were not too powerful, so the elf pantheon finally gave up on the pursuit.
As of now, there may be only two people who truly know this secret.
One is Shar. The reason why Shar corrupted her was not only for entertainment, but also to obtain the priesthood hidden in her.
Revenge and loss, these two priesthoods have now been obtained by Shar. Probably because of this, she released Bast so readily.
The other one is of course the God of War Anhe. The reason why he tolerates Bastet again and again and never gives up is love. Of course, the other reason is that he hopes to get the priesthood from Bastet.
It's just that Bastet never let Anhe succeed.
Levi and the others never expected that there was such a secret. Unfortunately, they knew it too late. Now Bastet only has her original cat, indulgence, sensuality and hedonism.
Except for cats, which are still useful, the others are just rubbish. Shar despises them, and Levi also despises them.
"No, actually His Highness Shar left something for me."
Saying this, Buster dug hard into her chest, and with a groan of pain, a fragment of the priesthood appeared in her palm.
"Hate for the drow?"
Looking at each other, Levi and Lilith, who originally had some doubts about what Bast said, now basically believed it.
This was the first time they had heard of this priesthood. It must have taken many years of war with the drow elves to condense it.
But currently, none of the gods behind many races in the Underdark have this priesthood, including Eilistraee, who hates Lolth the most.
The reason why Shar didn't take it away was probably because he didn't like it.
Shar does not have any followers in the Underdark, but she holds the priesthood of the Underdark. Therefore, between Shar and Rose, it is often the latter who needs to bow her head, and she does not need this thing at all.
"Thank you very much for your life-saving grace, Your Highnesses. I hope Your Highness Li Wei can accept this fragment of the priesthood."
Levi was not polite and took it directly. Eilistraee would definitely not accept it, but maybe it could be given to Donna later, so that she would have the opportunity to interfere with the beliefs of the virtuous drow.
Not all devout drow truly believe in Eilistraee, but they had no choice before, so a considerable number of them have very low piety towards Eilistraee.
Now the appearance of Donna may provide them with a new opportunity.
Even if Donna accumulates more strength, she may still be able to interfere with the beliefs of other races in the Underdark.
The drow are basically evil beings similar to earth lords in the Underdark. All other races have enmity with the drow. Maybe Donna can fool some gray dwarves or something.
"Okay, Bastet, I'll take you to see Anhe right now."
Although Bast has lost many priesthoods and the value is not that high, Anhe still doesn't know yet, and he still has to sell it, but there is no need to tell Bast.
Of course, even if Levi didn't say anything, Bastet could probably guess it, but that was not what she wanted.
"Wait a minute, Your Highness Levi, I don't want to return to the Egyptian pantheon. I hope to be protected by you and Paradise Mountain!"
Although she was captured by Shar before and missed a lot of things, this short time was enough for Bast to get a general idea from her followers and several close friends.
The entire world is undergoing tremendous changes. A weak goddess like her may die in battle at any time if she does not seek refuge with a strong man.
Although Shar let her go and did not take away her apparent priesthood, he did not hold back on the fragments of her godhead.
She was originally likely to break through to level 3 godhood at any time, but now she has fallen to a demigod.
Out of some strange pride and reserve, she neither wanted to rely on An He nor her friends, so the Li Wei in front of her might be a good choice.
Many gods from the Egyptian pantheon, including Isis and Hathor, have already gone to Paradise Mountain, and some are preparing to go, and they have also received good treatment.
She felt that if she could go to Heaven Mountain, she would also have a place.
But Levi smiled and shook his head: "Sorry, the camp attributes of Paradise Mountain are somewhat conflicting with your attributes, Bastet. Please forgive me."
He can accept the existence of the neutral camp, but he will never allow any gods from the chaotic camp to gain a foothold in Heavenly Mountain.
"Your Highness Levi, don't refuse in a hurry. I also have a fragment of the priesthood hidden in the Kingdom of God. It may be of some help to you and Your Highness Lilith."
"In addition, my priesthood may also be of some use in dealing with the Dark Elves' Joy Sect."
Levi's heart moved. Theoretically, Bast's priesthood might play some role in fighting against the Sect of Joy, the demons of Slaanesh, and the current situation is unknown, but it may be quite bad for the Aphrodisiacs.
But Bastet's chaotic nature could not give Levi much trust and expectation, so he never considered this aspect from the beginning.
But Lilith gave him a wink, indicating to him that despite this, Bastet might still be able to play some role.
Like, acting as a bait?
Under normal circumstances, the Four Gods of Chaos cannot corrupt any god, but there are too many similarities between Bast and Slaanesh, and Bast is in an extremely weak state. Slaanesh may have
Maybe he would take the initiative to come find her.
As for the Aithorn Celestial Clan, maybe you can take Bast there to have a look and treat it like waste.
Levi nodded slightly: "I can think about it, what is the other fragment of the priesthood you are talking about?"
Seeing that Levi finally relented, Lilith smiled in response, and Bastet finally had a smile on her face: "It's a military holy war."
As soon as the words came out, both Levi and Lilith felt a little surprised, because as Bast said, it might indeed be useful to them.
The large-scale attack on the Abyss organized by Livy was undoubtedly a kind of holy war.
Lilith's Kingdom of Bretonnian Knights has organized many large-scale military operations in the past. The knights did not hesitate to cross mountains and seas to launch attacks against certain evil forces. Of course, it was also considered a holy war.
At the same time, the Kingdom of Knights' holy war against evil forces such as the undead, beasts, and Norscan pirates has almost never stopped.
After pondering for a moment, Levi spoke again: "I can protect you on behalf of the gods on Heaven Mountain, but Heaven Mountain cannot accommodate any gods from the chaotic camp. I don't know that His Highness Bast thinks that the Star of the Thorn Celestial Clan
How is the royal court?"
Lilith also continued: "Just in time, I can also help you with His Highness Bastet."
Although the location of the Star King's Court is not fixed, Lilith knows that several of the possible places to stay are both in the Wilderness plane as well as the Olympus-Avandor kingdom where the Elven God System is located.
This is not considered fooling the other party.
After thinking quickly, Bast nodded in agreement: "Okay, then it will be as His Highness Li Wei said!"
Although the power of the Star Royal Court is obviously much weaker than that of Heaven Mountain, the advantage is that the camp attributes there perfectly match her.
With the blessing of the Star King's Court, the power of the Star Queen - Morville will be greatly increased, which is at least equivalent to weak divine power. Coupled with the Queen's two consorts, it is enough to protect her in most situations.
Moreover, the Aphrodisiacs there are the same kind as her in a sense, they all love freedom, indulgence and enjoyment.
After making the decision, Levi gave Bastet a godhead fragment and some divine power crystals, asking her to create an incarnation first, and then retrieve the priesthood fragments of the military jihad.
Then go to the Star King's Court to see if there's anything you can do.
For the sake of safety, Yue Gong will send an avatar to accompany her throughout the whole journey. Anyway, she has more than a dozen avatars, so it doesn't matter if one of them is separated.
Levi and Lilith found Isis.
"How's it going?"
Isis didn't say much nonsense. She just stretched out her hand and showed the door that the Queen of Stars had given her. Now it was filled with pink and purple ambiguous light, just like a fluorescent stick.
Obviously, the current situation of the Aithorn Clan and the Star Royal Court is definitely not much better.
Li Wei frowned a little. Under such circumstances, if they went there rashly, there must be many dangers.
Lilith next to her suddenly laughed: "Levi, my reinforcements are ready. Even if Slaanesh comes in person this time, there is only one way to die!"
