Chapter 1070: Weighing
Destroy 2 bone islands at the same time, then eliminate the real projection!
Judging from the situation in the first battle just now, this is too difficult.
Even the undying phantom of the Despair Lord was an invincible existence, let alone a projection close to his original form. According to the Water Elemental King, in order to defeat Dillosro, both bone islands must be destroyed. Otherwise, Dillosro’s power would be inexhaustible. There was no chance of victory.
After the destruction of the bone islands, it was equivalent to cutting off Dillosro’s continuous power, which made it possible to defeat him. Not to mention the sturdiness of the bone islands, it also had complementary special attributes. It was almost immortal, unless 2 powerful people with great strength attacked at the same time.
To complete this first step, at least Chen Rui needed to find a powerful helper.
Olypheus and Lalaria were the only 2 daughters of the Dragon Emperor Auglas. If he knew that his daughters were in danger, with the temperament of the Old Dragon Emperor Father-in-law, he would come immediately. The problem was that Auglas was only an early stage Pseudo-God at most, which was far inferior to Chen Rui. Even if he had the strong talent of dragons, he was not strong enough after all. Even if he tried his best, he would not be able to succeed. Letting Auglas come here was equivalent to killing him.
Chen Rui now had a Holy Shadow Orb in hand. He could consider using an avatar to attack at the same time, but the Holy Shadow Orb could only unleash half of the original body’s attack power. Moreover, its power was limited, just like an energy storage battery that would reduce with consumption. In particular, the Pole Star Transformation state consumed a lot of power and could not last long.
In the face of the enemy, even his real body could hardly withstand Dillosro’s attack, let alone his avatar.
Chen Rui thought about it, entered the Super System, found Python, and explained the situation.
“Abyss?” Python seemed to reveal a reminiscence expression, “That’s a forbidden curse…”
“Curse?”
“Your kingdom is quite profound.” Python changed the subject, “I can hardly tell the truth of this universe. Even the kingdom of Pseudo-God can only be regarded as a drop in a bucket in front of this power that has vast faith and life.”
“What you feel is only part of this universe.” Chen Rui asked after thinking about it, “Do you want to be a God?”
“Of course.” Python’s eyes were set on Chen Rui as she said indifferently, “Can you make me a God?”
“You once said that the peak stage of power is absolute, but the way to reach the peak stage is relative; there is more than 1 way. I can let you have the faith and God position of this universe. This is not an illusion, but a real God. This should be the best shortcut for you to embark on the road to God.”
“I know your purpose.” Python pondered for a moment, “What if I don’t want to?”
Chen Rui frowned, “You should be very aware of the outcome of the Abyss’ arrival. At that time, even if you can gain freedom, what you will face will be destruction.”
Seeing Python’s indifferent smile, Chen Rui’s heart sank, and he asked unwillingly, “You would rather give up life? You would rather choose to destroy everything? Why?”
Python trembled slightly, and there was an incomprehensible meaning in her eyes, “I just wanted to do this.”
Chen Rui shook his head. This woman’s mentality is simply beyond common sense. Maybe she can really be described with the word ‘crazy’ as she said.
“In your eyes, the reason I haven’t been destroyed is value. You want to fight against enemies like Satan, Sariel or Michael, and you want to protect some people, so you need my strength.” Python said lightly, “The value of my existence is those 2 conditions. You still have not fulfilled 1, so I will not give you any help before that. Even if my soul is annihilated or the whole world turns into nothingness.”
After that, Python gradually faded away.
Maybe this ‘crazy’ woman had her own special story, but these were not in Chen Rui’s consideration. What he was worried about now was the main altar. Python clearly would not make a move, so he had to find another way.
After Chen Rui’s consciousness left the Super System, he adjusted his emotions, “Lambost, do you know some friends in the Pseudo-God level?”
“The Elemental King’s friends… are very few.” Lambost shook his head, “Or you can say a friend is a superfluous term for the elemental king.”
“There are always exceptions, aren’t they?” Chen Rui shrugged, implying that there was one in front of him.
“Maybe. In fact, I just want to try something new. I have a clear purpose. You and Moore are real friends.”
“No doubt it is the skeptical… Uhm, okay, plus wise water elementals. Everything has a start.”
“Let’s talk about serious matters. On the main plane, the elemental king has no other friends of Pseudo-God. The enemies… especially the enemies of the past, there are lots, but most of these people’s lives were submerged in the long river of history.” Lambost hesitated for a while. A little crystal blue light appeared in his hand, and flew toward Chen Rui, “This is for you.”
The blue light was a necklace with a blue bead pendant. The breath seemed to have contained, looking bland.
“What is this?”
“The Water Shadow Pearl. It has a special restraint on Dillosro’s kingdom, but the effect is limited and cannot be completely relied on.”
“Thank you. With this, I’m more confident.”
“You’re too optimistic. Judging from the situation of the main altar just now, the real projection of Dillosro may have reached the level of peak stage Pseudo-God. Unfortunately, my power in this world is too weak, so I can only give you this little help. The premise is that you have to destroy the 2 bone towers first.”
“The projection has reached the level of peak stage Pseudo-God?” Chen Rui was taken aback.
“Dillosro is the weakest among the 3 Rulers.” Lambost’s words shocked Chen Rui again.
“So, aren’t the 3 Abyss Rulers at the God Level?”
“They’re not Gods yet.” Lambost looked at the high sky, shook his head, and didn’t say anymore.
After Chen Rui recovered from the shock, he put the Water Shadow Pearl in his clothes and fell into contemplation.
Putting aside the real strength of the 3 rulers, the most important thing at the moment is the avatar of the Despair Lord. Since the avatar’s strength is peak stage Pseudo-God and is on par with Michael and Raphael, I will definitely not be able to compete with him. There is only 1 month left in the 3-month period with Satan. It’s like facing enemies from both sides..
“The power of the Creation Vessel has healed most of my injuries. Now I’m going to the sea to use the water element power to heal my injuries. It should heal in a day.” Lambost explained before he turned into a stream of water and flew away. He disappeared into the sea, leaving only Chen Rui, who was still contemplating.
Chen Rui’s mind was like flipping through some kind of pictures quickly in search of all kinds of possibilities. Suddenly, there was a flash of light, and the picture was frozen on one thing.
“I think I found a helper, Lambost?” Chen Rui came back to his senses, only to find that the Water Elemental King had disappeared. He pat his head when he recalled Lambost said about curing himself in the sea.
He thought about it and didn’t rush to accomplish something. He just sat down with his knees crossed as he channeled the Star Power to recover.
As time flew by, it was already the next morning when Chen Rui opened his eyes.
At this time, there was a thing in his hand.
A ball shining with crystal light.
Chen Rui took a deep breath, squeezed it with force, and the ball shattered.
The shattered fragments flew up automatically and condensed into a vague human shape in the air.
The human figure became clear in an instant, and his eyes exuded a cold light on Chen Rui.
“I didn’t expect you to actually use this ball, but it is also understandable. At least you made the right choice. Let me confirm, can I say the welcome speech for you joining the Dark Divinity Temple?” This figure was actually Satan!
What Chen Rui crushed was the communication crystal ball that Satan left behind.
Satan was an enemy, and so was Dillosro. It was definitely unwise to be attacked on both sides. It was the best strategy to cooperate with each other and drive away the main enemy.
When in the Fallen Angel Empire, Satan gave him 3 options: Firstly, visit the Mountain Seckred within 3 months; second, crush the crystal ball to join the Dark Divinity Temple; third, 3 months later, Satan would come to the Fallen Fallen Angel Capital to destroy everything.
Now that Chen Rui crushed the crystal ball, Satan’s natural first reaction was that the other party gave in and was willing to join him.
“Sir Satan, don’t get me wrong, I have no intention of joining your Dark Divinity Temple.”
This sentence changed Satan’s facial expression slightly, “This kind of provocative trick is not a wise move. This crystal ball is actually a secret treasure of positioning. I can come at any time. Since you really want to seek death in advance, then I will now give you an annihilation ending.”
“Space positioning? Very good.” Chen Rui was not flustered, “Sir Satan, before you make a certain decision, let me explain that I’m calling you not to provoke you. Instead, I have a very important matter. The nature of this matter far exceeds even the dispute between us.”
“Hmph, I’ll give you a chance to play tricks as your last word.”
Chen Rui smiled indifferently and was unmoved, “I’m not sure about the trip to the Mountain Seckred, but I have not lost confidence. This is the battle between us, or the controller that will control the world. Whether this person is you or me, it’s after all. Even if it is to be destructed, it’s us, not other beings like…”
“It’s me, not us.” Satan’s mind was extremely agile. He interrupted Chen Rui’s words and said contemptuously, “Okay, now you can tell your tricks to sow discord. You want to make use of me to fight against who?”
“Dillosro.” Chen Rui said a name.
Satan’s gaze suddenly became solemn, and his burning gaze was set on Chen Rui’s face, “What do you want to use this name for?”
“Don’t be too overbearing! To underestimate your opponent is to underestimate yourself.” Chen Rui said sternly, “I just discovered the main altar of Dillosro, plus the main altar is about to complete the final form.”
“Final form?” Satan’s pupils contracted slightly.
“I think, based on Sir Satan’s knowledge, I don’t need to explain more things. My current location is the Dead Sea. I just escaped from that place yesterday. The main altar has 2 bone islands, which must be destroyed at the same time to defeat the entire main altar and the projection of the Despair Lord. I alone cannot destroy 2 bone islands at the same time, so I would like to invite Sir Satan to join hands to deal with the coveting people outside our battlefield.”
“Why should I believe your words?” Satan sneered, “Even if it’s not sowing discord, it may be some kind of trap. I’m not afraid of your damn tricks, but I won’t insult my own wisdom.”
“What if I give you the guarantee from the Water Elemental Messenger?” Lambost’s voice sounded. Chen Rui noticed that Lambost used the self-proclaimed ‘Water Elemental Messenger’ instead of the ‘Water Elemental King’.
“The Water Elemental Messenger…” Lambost’s appearance made Satan finally move.
“I discovered the anomaly in this sea area back then, but I didn’t expect it to be Dillosro’s main altar. The present main altar is about to complete its final form. Once the Ruler’s true body descends, the power of sealing the prohibition will be completely broken. Regardless of what you all want, the only thing you can have at that time is to lose everything.”
” Water Elemental Messenger, or I should call you a projection, I don’t know what kind of friendship you have with that guy. I can not believe him or you.” Satan pondered for a while, showing a solemn expression for the first time, “But I can’t help but trust the things that come out of the mouth of the Water Elemental Messenger about ‘them.'”
TL: Yeah, just the he used Satan to defeat the Abyss lord back then… Python really resembles Isabella’s past self…
