Cohen's first thought was that the source of life was lying. The eternal elemental array was not exclusive to her and could also be used by false gods. This result would lead to many chain reactions, the most direct of which was that the energy from the crusaders would be taken away.
Go away, or even be slaughtered.
The second thing that occurred to Cohen was that the Source of Life did not lie, but that the false god had an insight into her way of existence and rules, exploited the loopholes in some way, and successfully copied the eternal element array and the Source of Life itself. This means
Since the source of life is no longer the only mother goddess in Bis continent, the false god already has an existence that can compete with her, at least the same level of supreme power!
But no matter which reason it is, it means that Cohen's favorable conditions have been offset, and he and all members of the crusade have become hostages. This means that the false god has once again taken the initiative, and Bis Continent is likely to become another
their playthings.
In the case where there are two eternal elemental arrays, or even two sources of life, all the energy in the world of Bis will be at least equally divided. Now it’s exciting, two eternal elemental arrays, two
The source of life, the collision and struggle between them, the outcome is unpredictable by anyone, genius only knows how many humans will survive...
Cohen understood this, Fichet understood this, and even the returnees and personal guards standing behind them understood this. Therefore, everyone lost their voices at the same time in front of the magic circle. Under the impact of the false god king's momentum, the calm personal guards
Their faces were pale, and the fanatical returners were even more affected. Some people continued to retreat, and some were faltering...
There is basically no room for doubt. The square under everyone's feet is getting higher and higher. Its height and scope are almost exactly the same as when the eternal element magic circle in the city was activated. What's even more serious is that everyone is standing in the center of the magic circle.
——Although they are all relatively safe human bodies, no one can guarantee that the false gods will not play tricks. If something goes wrong, who will you go to for reasoning?
No wonder the crusade marched forward with no defense at all. All the followers of the false god must be hiding under the magic circle! Attract first and then encircle and annihilate. This is the tactic that Cohen taught the opponent personally. Now that he tried it on his own, the taste was unusually bitter.
.
Faced with such a dangerous situation and the almost certain consequences of failure, Cohen was naturally afraid - his face was terrifyingly calm, his expression as hard as iron, and even the false god made no move to interrupt him.
However, Cohen will not despair, ever!
Cohen took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly. Then, Cohen glanced at Fichet beside him, his silent eyes seemed to be asking something. The latter saw in Cohen's eyes that he had no regard for the source of life.
Covered suspicion.
The reason why this method of communication is used is because within the scope of the eternal elemental array, spiritual communication is very unsafe. The eternal elemental array is the most powerful array and has the most powerful functions, and can even produce changes in details.
There are countless changes. As the pseudo-gods who lead the magic circle, they are likely to intercept and destroy divine information. Therefore, until the situation is unclear, everything must be done with caution.
Fischette did not shake his head or make any other statement, but Cohen had received feedback and knew that he still maintained trust in the source of life. In this case, as usual, Cohen chose to support Fischette's judgment.
"This illusion is really interesting." Cohen's eyes returned to the false god, and he broke the dead silence on the scene with an understatement, "You two don't mind if I take a second look?"
"I don't mind." Now that such a shocking trump card has been revealed to others, the false god certainly hopes that Cohen can see it clearly.
A pure white halo exploded with Cohen as the center, and rushed to a very far place before dissipating. This was a strong magical impact that broke the illusion. As long as it was an illusion, even if it was arranged by a false god, it would at least be destroyed.
Part of it. But the result was frustrating, because the magic power emitted by Cohen dissipated quickly during its expansion, and was finally completely decomposed and absorbed by the magic circle.
Decomposing and absorbing energy are the characteristics of the eternal element magic circle. Even if it is in an unawakened state, it still has this effect, but its power is much weaker. Similarly, Cohen also discovered that this magic circle is similar to the magic circle he set up in the city.
There are subtle differences, and many details have changed. This shows that the false god has studied the eternal element array more thoroughly and is not a simple simulation.
"Your Highness, have you seen clearly?" The pseudo-god king took a step forward and spoke politely. His face was calm and relaxed, and there was no trace of the arrogance and arrogance of a salty fish. "Then, Your Highness Cohen thinks we
Is this trump card passable?”
It would be difficult for anyone to answer such a slap in the face question, but fortunately, the identity of a gangster is really useful.
"Hahahahahahahahahaha..." Cohen didn't feel embarrassed at all. He first let out a heart-wrenching heroic laugh, and then suddenly revealed a sincere expression of compassion, and the tenderness in his tone was almost to the point of being disgusting: "
We all live under the same sky and in the aura of love and justice, so why bother shouting and killing all day long? Can't we all live together in harmony?"
There are not many people who can say such words even after killing someone in their home, and even fewer can hold a knife in their hand.
"A harmonious atmosphere... In fact, this is also our expectation." Surprisingly, the pseudo-devil king turned a blind eye to Cohen's pretentiousness, and actually agreed with Cohen's words. He stood side by side with the pseudo-god king, looking like he was convincing others with his virtue.
, said implicitly and kindly: "We are very pleased to have the resonance of His Highness Cohen."
"Look, everyone's communication is still meaningful!" Cohen clapped his hands gently and said enthusiastically, "But since it is a communication, there is no need for so many people to watch, so it is better to let them go outside and wait for the results.
"
The false god king smiled and replied: "Since everyone is here, they are all our guests. I have ordered people to arrange seats in the small square outside the palace gate. There will be enough wine and food. This kind of hospitality is not an injustice to His Highness's followers, right?
?”
The palace gate is actually located within the magic circle, but not too close to the core. Of course, the pseudo-god will not let Cohen's men slip out and cause trouble. Although the trump cards can scare people to death, they are not so confident as to do so.
"It's okay to eat and drink." Cohen nodded cooperatively, and then ordered, "You can step aside for now!"
The guards retreated without a word, but the large number of returnees did not respond to Cohen's words. Their eyes were confused and they looked at each other's faces, but no one was willing to move. It was obvious that Thirty-Six
The returnees cannot trust Cohen. What Cohen and the false gods are doing is obviously to clear the place so that they can start secret talks.
"Huh?" Cohen snorted, his eyes looking very unkind.
A cold breath emanated from his body, constantly eroding the bodies of the returnees, making them tremble involuntarily, but even so, they still did not give in - no one needed to remind them, they all knew that with Cohen
The result of opposition.
Life is precious, but what the fanatical returners value most is not themselves, but their own mission and beliefs. Just kidding, a tit-for-tat negotiation is about to begin. What if this bastard sells the Mother Goddess? No doubt,
This man who only knows how to use violence has no noble character at all, he will definitely do this!
In fact, in Cohen's mind, if something must be sacrificed in this matter, the returner will be his first choice.
"It is obviously inappropriate to have no witnesses for such a grand event. Each clan should leave one elder!" At this time when neither side could give in, it was Fischette who came forward to mediate. He came up with a compromise plan acceptable to both parties.
The returnee leaders glanced at each other fiercely, even communicated with gestures, and finally accepted Fichet's suggestion. Others retreated, leaving only some elders present. But those who stayed could only act according to their circumstances.
Cohen has no say in front of him at all - the more cruel fact is that Cohen will not worry about anything in the negotiation just because they are present. At most, after negotiating the terms with the false god, he can just kill all the outsiders present. Many people in power
This has been done before.
Some people stepped back, some stepped forward, some stood still, some were leisurely and contented, everyone had their own thoughts. After a while, the square under everyone's feet had been cleared, and its position no longer increased... It was originally
It is built on the top of a mountain and the terrain is high enough.
The two false gods stood side by side, with Cohen and Fichet thirty arms away from them. The elders of the returnees were slightly behind, forming two semicircles faintly... and the seed of the source of life should be in the false god.
Under the ground behind the God King.
"According to His Highness Cohen's wishes, everything has been completed." The pseudo-god king looked over with a calm gaze, holding the overall situation in his hands. From then on, he began to release his power bit by bit, "I would like to ask Your Highness again -
—Are you afraid?"
"Afraid, of course I'm afraid!"
However, what everyone present did not expect was that the person who stepped forward to answer was not Cohen, but Fichet standing next to him.
"If crying could solve the problem, he would have become a tearful man a long time ago." With a smile on his face and a beautiful tree facing the wind, this man easily exposed Cohen's bluff.
The situation where the pseudo-god king was imposing was slightly changed because Fichet took the initiative to step forward, just like a stone thrown into calm water. No matter how inconspicuous the stone is, it can still create ripples.
And there must be more than one. As far as the current situation is concerned, all the momentum of the pseudo-god king is on Cohen, and Fischette's intervention is a big disturbance.
It's no wonder that as opponents, they are not familiar with the cooperation between Cohen and Fischette, which is a very passive situation.
"Oh, is that so?" Although the rhythm and momentum of the pseudo-god king's questioning was disrupted by Fichet, he immediately eliminated the interference and still maintained this seemingly peaceful pressure.
The pseudo-devil beside him took over the topic at the right time: "This handsome Highness also has the same impressive abilities as His Highness Cohen, but he seems to be a little unfamiliar in appearance. Can His Highness Cohen introduce it to us?"
He looked at Cohen and said this seemingly aristocratic sentence, as if he really didn't know Fichet. But first, it is difficult for a truly cultivated noble to say such rude words. Second, the people present include
All the false gods and demons know who Fichet is. Although killing the Xia Mai family was not a direct order from the two superior kings, there was a reason behind it. How could they not know?
They are humiliating Fichet, and they are also humiliating Cohen. This is enough to show that after the trump card was revealed, the mentality of the false god king and the false devil king is rapidly recovering, and they have become much stronger, and even have the charm of scorning all living beings in the past.
It's like the long hard work has paid off. After a long journey and seeing the end, the fatigue, embarrassment, embarrassment and a little bit of madness in the false god king have all disappeared.
"Don't ask me." Cohen shrugged his shoulders, "I don't know this bastard!"
Cohen's words were obviously meant to vent his anger, but this short sentence completely broke the tense and depressing atmosphere in the venue. It can be said that since the magic circle lines were revealed, the momentum built up by the pseudo-god brothers was all
In order to put pressure on Cohen and open up the situation - even if the trump card is seen by everyone, the negotiation is still a negotiation, and it is far from breaking down.
But Cohen, who had been suppressed since the emergence of the magic circle, used these two sentences and this playful attitude to tell the false god that he had been freed from the huge pressure, and Cohen also used this method to stabilize himself.
My own emotions... If Cohen was the only one at the scene, he wouldn't be able to pull off this trick, but if there was a tacit helper around him, things would be much easier.
"Your Highness Cohen is joking." The Pseudo-Devil King chuckled, "There must be no unknown person who can stand here and face everything."
"It seems that you are really obsessed with things like qualifications. Well, let me introduce another enemy to you two." Cohen straightened his face, pointed at Fichet next to him, "He is because of the gods and demons.
One of the Bisi humans whose family was destroyed and whose relatives were separated, he is the direct descendant of the 16th Emperor of the Bisi Empire, Fichet Charmei!"
"No wonder it looks familiar. It turns out to be His Highness Fichet from Sibia." The pseudo-devil king looked like he heard an insignificant name. He nodded slightly, but this head was not directed at Fichet.
Characteristic.
However, Fichet, who was ignored and even despised, was as calm as before, the expression on his face did not change at all, and there was no sign of any mood swings on his face.
"Do you think he is not qualified to stand here? You are wrong, absolutely wrong!" Cohen laughed, "The reason why I am standing here today and the reason why you are standing here today are mostly because of
Because of his contribution! You probably would never have thought of this, right?"
Indeed, both sides stand here, Cohen is active and the two pseudo-god brothers are passive. They were forced to this point by Cohen, and half of them were because of Fischette - in Cohen's current state, he was introducing
It is impossible to speak freely when Fichet, because what comes out of his mouth is likely to be the final judgment of someone. Therefore, the false gods and devils have no reason to doubt the importance of Fichet, and they also know a little about Cohen.
Past events with Fichet.
It is really difficult for a mere imperial emperor to be brought into the eyes of the superior clan. With Cohen's introduction, he can be taken seriously.
"That's it." The expression on the pseudo-devil's face trembled slightly, and then, as if he had never seen Fichet before, he looked the blond young man up and down with his eyes, and then said slowly, "Fichet
It is really worthy of congratulations that His Highness Sheite has seen the light of day again. Yes, His Highness is indeed qualified to stand here and participate in this eternal event."
After Fichet heard the word "congratulations", his eyelids narrowed involuntarily - with friends like Cohen and coming from a royal family, he had a deep understanding of the word shameless. But at this time, Fichet
Te Cai realized that he had underestimated the shamelessness of the false gods and demons, and they actually congratulated him on seeing the light of day again!
What kind of shamelessness is this!
But Fischette was not the kind of person who would yell. He just replied calmly: "Similarly, I also want to congratulate the two of you on seeing each other again. Because of some kind of coincidence, or conspiracy, everyone was killed together. But
Obviously, no one is capable of killing anymore, so should we be more open and honest with each other?"
"His Highness Fichet's suggestion is very good." The false god king nodded and said, "I am preparing to do this, but I don't know what His Highness Cohen means?"
"You go first! It's you who revealed the trump card, so tell me your plan first." Cohen gave a polite gesture, "I just hope you understand one thing - although you have such a powerful trump card in your hands, it's best to tell them as soon as possible.
Be clear about the cause and effect. If we make a wrong judgment because of the unclear words, and something happens, then I can only say that I am sorry."
"Is His Highness Cohen threatening us?"
"No, I'm just stating a simple fact." Cohen shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid to tell you frankly. My current judgment is that if I leave, this magic circle can't keep me - it can't keep me either.
Fichet.”
"But that's not the case..."
"So at this point, you can no longer make any reservations. This is as important to us as it is to you." Cohen interrupted the other party's useless words. He is rarely so cautious, and rarely expresses his attitude without reservations.
manifested.
"Okay, we can tell everything without reservation." The Pseudo God King considered for a moment, nodded and made a decision, "I hope your two highnesses can make a decision without regrets!"
The two sides had several rounds of fierce exchanges in terms of momentum and rhetoric. You came and went, completely treating the returnee elders around them as if they were air. In fact, they were indeed as worthless as air. They even stood silently and bowed their heads.
It seems very eye-catching.
"The Eternal Element Magic Array should be unfamiliar to both Your Highnesses, especially His Highness Cohen. You just used it in the city not long ago." The pseudo-devil raised his hand and used invisible power to push away the last traces on the lines of the magic array.
With a layer of cover, his eyes flashed with infinite pride, "And this eternal elemental array is as real as the eternal elemental array that is running in the city - the difference is that it has not been truly
Wake it up, and we have the ability to wake it up!"
Cohen and Fischette listened expressionlessly. They had to listen, listen carefully, and not let go of any information.
"His Royal Highness Cohen is obviously the protector and awakener of the eternal elemental array in the city, so His Highness knows very well that the eternal elemental array must have a very, very special core to be deployed." The pseudo-god king talked eloquently, but
His peaceful expression could not hide a hint of sarcasm, "Yes, our magic array also has something like the core of the city's magic array - the seeds of the source of life!"
Hearing this, Cohen showed a vicious sneer on his face, looking very sinister.
"Please forgive me, maybe because of this seed of the source of life, the two highnesses will fall into suspicion and doubt, but this is not our original intention." There was a faint smile on the pseudo-devil's face, "I can imagine, in
When entrusting the mission, the incarnation of the Mother Goddess will swear that what is handed over to His Highness Cohen is the only seed of the source of life. There is only the only essence of the source of life in the world... In fact, if it were not for us,
, what the Source of Life says is the truth.”
"I probably understand." Fichet interrupted the other party's statement for the first time, just to guide the topic to the most important part, "When you decided to rebel, you should have done all kinds of things for this seed.
Have you made a plan?"
"Your Highness's guess cannot be right or wrong. You must know that we have ended many human eras with our own hands. This long time is enough for us to do many things, including this seemingly impossible seed. But no matter how tortuous the process is
, in short, we have this hard-won seed, the seed of the real source of life."
"As long as it is awakened, this seed will start to grow like the source of life in Dicheng. The eternal elemental array will also draw energy from the entire world to feed it. Everything will happen just like what happened in Dicheng." Pseudo God King
Said, "The only difference is that this is our eternal elemental array, which is our source of life! We don't know what will happen when the seeds grow, nor do we know the opposition between the two sources of life.
Will there be a world-destroying war..."
"But we are willing to bet, we are not afraid of the destruction of the world!" This is the oath proclaimed by the false god and demon king at the same time, which is very resounding! (To be continued)
