Ren's eyes were fixed on the glass test tube in his hand, looking at the abominable worm, his arms were shaking, and huge fear burst out from the depths of his heart.
The Maggot of Kyvos...
Kevos...
Kevos, a taboo name.
Among the many taboo names known to everyone, Kevos is the most famous, most despised, and most feared true name of the Wormwalkers.
Yes, the ancient evil wormwalker.
This name means destruction and the coming of disaster.
"The rise of the nations hasn't happened yet, the floating city hasn't fallen from the sky, and the traces of ancient evil things have already appeared? Why is the order of this expansion pack different from what I remember..."
Renn murmured to himself with a pale face.
Those who study forbidden knowledge claim that Kyvos was an evil figure long lost to history.
Renn scratched his hair in distress, with a depressed look on his face.
As the seal is gradually broken, the power of the evil omen will gradually become stronger.
However, if a sealed ancient evil like the Worm Walker wants to break the seal and come to the main material plane, it needs to go through a ritual called "Evil Omen Resurrection" to accumulate strength.
Even high-level guild leaders like Ren only knew the approximate time of the Wormwalker's arrival and the impact it had, but knew nothing more specific.
That is a giant insect that weighs 3,000 pounds alone and has a challenge level of 12!
After calming down, Ren took a deep breath and said softly:
As the ceremony progressed, Kevos's body melted together with the dirty obelisk stones. At the same time, he gained divinity, but lost it in an instant.
However, when the Wormwalkers came to the Redbud Alliance, Renn and the guild he belonged to focused most of their energy on the north of the Western Continent.
It is also sealed, but the awakening of the ancient evil is not the same as the divine evil.
The era when he walked on the earth was one of the most evil eras in history. At that time, humans had not yet established a true kingdom, were immersed in blasphemous art, and served dark gods.
Players have almost no resistance to such camp confrontation tasks. In addition, most of the guilds that Ren belongs to are melee professions, so the attention paid to the Bauhinia Business Alliance has inevitably dropped a lot.
In the end, Kyvos became a being that was neither mortal nor divine - an ancient evil.
At first, I was just shocked.
Back then, it was not like he and his teammates had never killed ancient evil creatures and divine beings, and they had a relatively good understanding of the process of their breaking through the seal and coming.
"It's okay, there's still time."
Thus, his followers became the price paid by Kevos.
Although the Wormwalkers were eventually suppressed, the Redbud Business Alliance was greatly damaged and became the last of the four countries in the Western Continent, even inferior to the Howling Tribe Federation in the north, which has been at war with the orc tribes all the time.
Soon after, Kevos discovered the ruins of a lost civilization and learned from the ruins the relevant rituals of human sacrifice under the rule of the six-armed tyrants.
There are big melons every day. As melon-eating players, who can remember exactly what each melon looks like...
If Ren's memory is correct, the ancient evil creature, Wormwalker Kevos, broke the seal and came to the Redbud Business Alliance only after the opening of the Grand Line.
In order to obtain more foreign aid, the Howling Tribe Federation has opened up many unique professions unique to the federation, and has made a small part of its big killer weapon [Secret Ritual of Bloodline] public to attract adventurers (NPCs) and gods.
The player (player) joins his side to fight against the orcs.
When the Alliance found out and ordered the legendary strongmen who were exploring the Dead Flame Islands to rush back quickly, it was already a step too late. In less than a month, the Wormwalker and its minions: the undead and the aberrations had destroyed
Three large cities, eight small and medium-sized cities, and dozens of villages and towns, millions of people died in this disaster.
The orc tribe once again launched the "War of Glory" and fought fiercely with the Howling Wind Tribe Federation.
Recalling the relevant knowledge about evil objects, Ren's expression gradually calmed down.
"If I had known I could travel through time, I wouldn't have been so immersed in leveling up. It would be good to collect more information."
This process has always been lengthy, ranging from one year to several years.
At first, adventurers would occasionally encounter mutant centipedes or centipede swarms in the wild, then it became every day, every 12 hours, and finally every hour.
There is no way, when the expansion pack [Dance of Demons] is opened, the entire four countries of the Western Continent are in chaos. Either the evil things resurrect, the orcs invade, or the evil gods descend and the gods break the seal.
If you want to transcend the mortal world and become a god, you must sacrifice a large number of living people.
Basically every ten days and a half, a big news breaks.
And at the moment when Kaivos turned into an ancient evil creature, he was sealed in a prison by the gods with divine power.
One bloody night, he initiated the ritual, commanding his loyal priests to gather his followers and massacre them all, and then Kyvos himself slew the massacres.
His words caused him to be exiled, but he did not weaken like other exiles. Instead, he became a prophet and even attracted a group of followers who believed in his words and deeds. These followers regarded him as the spokesperson of the gods.
Believing that he will be protected by Kaivos, he will be protected from the doomsday that he predicted will come.
The movement of the gods breaking free from the seal was even smaller, but the movement of the emergence of the ancient evil was huge. As the ancient evil, the Wormwalker Kaivos, began to revive, [Evil Omen: Worm Infestation] was also triggered.
"But fortunately, what I encountered was only the maggots of Kaivos, not the spawn of Kaivos or the Kaivos Familia. This means that the signs of awakening are just beginning to appear."
As the high priest of the evil god, Kyvos claims that the end is approaching and even the gods are powerless.
After ordering the believers to rebuild the city in the ruins, Kaivos' ambition urged him to seek more powerful power, through some way to transcend mortals, transcend legends, and become a true god. While studying those who sacrificed the living
After the relevant ceremony, Kevos's thoughts gradually became clear.
The insect creatures encountered by adventurers have gradually changed from centipedes to sandworms, centipede monsters, and finally even rare purple insects in the underdark will appear on the surface to feed.
After all, no matter who it was, as a low-level adventurer, if he suddenly discovered traces of ancient evil objects, he would be shocked. The reason is simply that the gap in strength between the two is too big.
"In this life, as a paladin, now that I know the news about the resurgence of the ancient evil creature, I cannot ignore it. Before it completely breaks the seal and descends to the main material plane, I must accumulate enough strength to bring the ancient evil creature back to life.
The impact caused by the arrival of evil things is minimized!"
After making such a decision, Renn felt much more relaxed and had a deeper understanding of the way of the paladin.
Not long ago, didn't he just say the same thing about the vow of revenge he made - to look for powerful enemies without any distractions.
The Black Knight has dedicated his life to challenging and destroying greater evil.
