However, as a powerful legendary mage, Irenicas is obviously not an ordinary lowly man, and the general concept of superiority and inferiority cannot be applied to him.

But even so, the mistress immediately showed an unhappy expression, and her eyes even revealed a threat.

At this moment, the leader of the surface elf priest seemed to have noticed something. He suddenly raised his head and stared at the face of Irenicas with the magic mask. He exclaimed in shock: "Strong... Nares

(Elven name of Irenikas)?

How come you are here!

Could it be that you planned those attacks in cooperation with these damn dark elves?

I knew that Queen Alistar made an unforgivable mistake when she chose to exile you instead of eradicating the roots.

You ungrateful..."

Before the surface elf priest could finish speaking, Irenikas's face became extremely angry and manic.

Without saying a word, he immediately released a dazzling magical light with his hands, followed by a beam of negative energy.

The next second...

Touch!

The elf priest's entire body suddenly exploded, and blood, minced meat, bones and internal organs were instantly scattered everywhere.

In particular, the broken bones also hit several other nearby prisoners, causing the latter to fall to the ground with serious injuries, covering their torn wounds and continuously letting out heart-rending screams.

The scene was so bloody and cruel that even the dark elves on the side showed surprised expressions and looked sideways.

The drow mistress, who looked unhappy just now, immediately put on another playful expression and joked: "Ah! My dear friend.

Didn't you just say that you wanted to torture him and obtain some information?

Why did you suddenly change your mind?

Is it because you don’t like his accent?”

"Honorable Mistress, after careful consideration, I think your idea is correct. These garbage have no value at all, and death is their only destination."

Irenekas put one hand on his chest and bowed slightly to show submission.

Obviously, whether the priest just mentioned the elf name he had used before or brought up Queen Ellystar, he had seriously touched his reverse scale, so he lost control of his emotions and killed someone in a rage on the spot.

However, after killing the opponent, he quickly regained the rationality and calmness that a legendary mage should have.

"Remember, Irenicus.

Although you have provided a valuable opportunity, we are the ones who have the final say.

I hope you can understand the situation and stop challenging my authority again and again.

Otherwise, it won’t be so easy to fool you next time.”

After saying that, the mistress turned and left with the other dark elves, leaving only the injured prisoners who were dying and the legendary mage standing motionless.

You don’t need to ask to know that none of the prisoners who were seriously injured by flying bones could not be saved.

Killing them at this time is a kind of relief.

Therefore, the cruel and bloodthirsty dark elves planned to let the captives die slowly in pain in order to better please Lolth.

After a while, these surface elves who were bleeding continuously fell to the ground and took their last breath.

There is no doubt that they are not the first victims of Irenicas' ambition to become a god, and they will definitely not be the last.

In other words, the path of mortals to becoming gods is always paved with the blood, lives and bones of innocent people.

No matter whether this god is good, evil, or neutral in the end.

After all, the rise of every new god means being an enemy of certain gods, and the battles involved without exception require devout believers to shed their lives and blood.

As for the number of civilians who may be innocently implicated, the number is even greater.

The fighting between the sons of Baal for the Blood Throne is the best proof.

Looking at the corpses of his former compatriots on the ground, Irenekas, who had long lost his identity as an elf and even much of his humanity, was not moved at all, but revealed strong hatred.

He knew that the souls of these dead surface elves had already gone to Arvandor, the country of the elves and gods.

But when he was exiled and deprived of his elf essence, he lost this power that is inherent in every elf.

Just when Irenicas felt furious and planned to enter Avandor after becoming a god to question why the elven gods treated him so cruelly, a familiar figure suddenly fell from the sky with a vague smile on his face.

.

"My friend, your movements are really fast.

Not long after this, they successfully united with the ruling family of Uster Nasa to launch an attack on the Elf settlement and temple in the Wildas forest.

I think the entire Soldanisla has mobilized all its troops to block the passage connecting the Underdark, right?

Are you going to start breaking the magic barrier surrounding this tree city next, and then lead an army of monsters that have been summoned, enslaved and controlled to launch a surprise attack?"

"Thos? How did you find me? How dare you appear in the temple of the spider goddess Rose!"

Erinikas's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and the nerves in his whole body became tense instantly.

You must know that in order to hide his actions without being discovered, he has blessed himself with a lot of protection from anti-prophecy spells, so in theory no one should be able to easily complete the positioning.

And actions like this suddenly appeared in front of him out of thin air, making him quite insecure.

"Okay, relax, I'm not here to trouble you, I just said hello.

Don’t forget, we signed a contract.

So there is a connection between us, and it is not difficult for me to find you.

As for this temple of Rose...

Maybe you won’t believe it, but my relationship with her is not as bad as you imagined.”

After saying these words, Zuo Si raised his head and blinked at the statue behind him, whose upper body was a beautiful woman and whose lower body was a big-bellied spider.

However, Irenicas still did not relax his vigilance and continued to test: "You came all the way here just to say hello and confirm the progress of my plan?"

Zuo Si smiled and asked: "What else?

Can I still kill you?

What's more, what you see now is just a projection, not my true body.

I'm trying to develop some interesting abilities recently, and this kind of projection, which only contains a small part of the original body's strength, is one of them.

But what is a bit regretful is that it seems to be restricted by certain rules, so many of my cards and abilities cannot be used."

"Projection..."

Erinikas understood something instantly, and the expression on his face suddenly relaxed a lot.

Obviously, as a great devil and lord of hell with a unique form, it is not surprising that Zuo Si has the ability to create projections.

Not to mention him, even those Hell Fiends who have reached a certain level of status and the Barlow Fire Demons who have become secondary lords in the abyss, when summoned by believers or worshipers in the material world, they basically use projections.

Show up in a different way.

Because the death of the projection will not have any impact on the main body, even if it is destroyed, it will only disappear temporarily. It is not like the main body entering the material world and having to wait for a long time to be resurrected in its hometown after being killed.

Basically, gaining the ability to create projections means half-stepping into the level of divine power.

This is one of the most frequently used abilities by many evil lower plane creatures.

It's just that Zuo Si has ignored these little tricks that are flashy and useless in his opinion for a long time.

But after witnessing Asmodeus's use of his own divine power, he also began to develop his own abilities in this area, instead of just treating it as a tool to fight against divine power.

The projection in front of you was the first one to be developed.

It has a creator level of LV15, a priest level of LV25, a mage professional level of LV35, and a natural warlock level of LV37. It also inherits all the basic attributes of the original body.

In addition, there are almost half of the abilities of a big devil, such as damage reduction, magic resistance and saving throws.

However, the power derived from the sparks of the planeswalkers cannot be inherited, nor can they use the corresponding abilities.

As long as he is willing, Zuo Si can create and control multiple projections at the same time.

But if the number of projections exceeds a certain threshold, then the capabilities of all projections will be greatly weakened.

To put it simply, this thing is a bit like the incarnation of a god prepared to enter the material world. It is a special ability derived from the great devil or the great devil in order to rule a huge territory or engage in multi-level games with enemies.
p>

The most important thing is that this thing is not like an avatar, which requires time and part of your own strength to make.

Even if I am accidentally ambushed and sealed, I still feel distressed.

For example, in the Observer Fortress that stands on the Bay of Fire Yaron on the west coast of Faerûn, the guardian god Helm used his divine power to imprison a projection of the demon prince Demogorgon.

But the latter doesn't care at all.

After so many years, he has never tried to use his influence in the material world to let those crazy devil worshipers and evil wizards who are eager to obtain forbidden knowledge and power from themselves summon an army of demons to capture it.

At best, the projection can slowly corrupt the mortal guards, and then wait for an opportunity to break the seal and escape.

After confirming that Zuo Si in front of him was not his true form, Irenicas asked again: "Where is the son of Baal whom you favor? What is his current state after losing his divinity, divine power and part of his soul?"
