Chapter 904 Rose’s Call(3/4)
Caves, deep pits, and volcanic craters that occasionally erupt with lava.
There is no vegetation in this country, whether it is low shrubs and grasses or the mushrooms in the dark areas, everything is as quiet as death, as if it has just experienced a world-ending disaster that destroyed everything.
But soon, they discovered something interesting, which were pieces of silver curtains.
When I got closer, I realized that these curtains were all webs made by spiders.
When the wind blows, it will emit bursts of chilling whine.
Kunsel walked closer and gently grabbed a small piece with his hands, and immediately said in a voice full of excitement and awe: "This is the Web of the Song Spider! It represents the voice of Rose!"
"These spider webs are the goddess calling her chosen ones!" Danifei added with a strange look in her eyes.
"Indeed."
Kunsel gave the other party a warning look.
Because in her opinion, this honor belongs only to herself, and anyone who tries to snatch this unknown person will be sacrificed to the great God Queen without mercy.
Danifee obviously did not dare to compete with Kunsel, so she quickly lowered her head to express her concession and surrender.
She is not a fool, and understands that she is far inferior to the high priestess of the Baenre family in terms of ability, priest level, and religious piety.
If nothing else, Kunsel is basically sure of this position.
Passing through the large silver spider web, the group soon saw an unforgettable sight.
It was an endless stream of souls flying in a certain direction along a special trajectory. Among them were a large number of dark elves, mixed-blood half-drows, demon-born drows, and even very rare humans.
These souls seemed to have not seen Kunsel and his party at all, passing directly above their heads and extending to the end of their sight.
"What a spectacular and turbulent river of souls. It seems that the goddess's imminent awakening is not just a lie, but a real thing."
Danifei felt the power of resonance surging inside her body and subconsciously clenched her fists.
Because as she got closer and closer to Rose, her spell ability began to recover again, and she could now normally cast magical spells below the third level.
"Yes! The great goddess will guide us on the way forward. Come on, let us see who is the real chosen one."
Kunsel narrowed his eyes, revealing his naked and undisguised ambition.
Once she becomes the chosen one, it means that she can go back and replace Triel as the leader of House Baenre, or even the master of the entire city of Menzoberranzan.
Not only that!
The glory bestowed by the goddess will also allow her to receive the favor and favor of Rose just like the old mistress back then.
After a brief conversation, the team, summoned by the Spider Queen, set off on their journey again.
Their goal is very clear, that is, to be the first chosen one to reach the goddess and awaken her completely, and then carry this honor to help Rose achieve the goal she wants to achieve.
It doesn't matter how much sacrifice and price is required in this process.
In other words, the men in the team were actually the sacrifices Kunsel prepared for the goddess.
Yes, you heard it right.
In the eyes of this vicious priestess, both her nephew and the demon son of Mother Triel are nothing more than consumables that can be sacrificed at any time.
And this is the most direct proof of how low the status of men is in dark elf society.
So it is not surprising that many men who succeeded in seizing power in their cities during this turmoil would kill women.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When gender opposition reaches this level, it is basically a life-and-death war, with no room for relaxation at all.
Compared with the dark elves, the antagonism between men and women in modern society on earth is nothing at all.
As the teams representing Rose and Eilistraee entered the country, the battle between mother and daughter finally came to a conclusion.
Of course, another participant, Velen, the God of Conspiracy, was not idle either.
At this moment, he was sharpening his knife and planned to send his mother and sister away in a wave.
To this end, he has secretly made many arrangements, and the super yugoloth demon Inthraxis and his army are just the beginning.
Right now, the masked king is meeting an extremely important ally in his own country.
"Are you sure you are really ready?"
Musk, the god of thieves, looked at the opponent's eyes filled with hatred and asked.
Velen nodded without thinking: "Yes, I am ready. As long as you are willing to help me this time, I promise to give you unimaginable rewards afterwards. As long as we join forces, Siventam is not enough.
For fear."
"But what should I do with the Spider Queen? I don't want to face that crazy woman."
A half-smiling expression appeared on Musk's face.
As one of the most calculating gods in the entire Faerûn continent, he would not be stupid enough to provoke the master of the Deep Pit Demon Network.
Because Rose is not a rational god.
Once she is resented, it often means revenge at all costs.
"Don't worry, my sister will keep my mother away from other things."
Viren was forthright in his assurances.
At this stage, he only has one target to eliminate, and that is the biggest stumbling block, Silventam.
Unlike the naive Eilistraee, he knew very well that if he wanted to kill Lolth, he had to get rid of Selvettam first.
This drow demigod has a series of titles including Lolth's champion fighter, vassal, and shapeshifting spider prince. He is completely a loyal dog beside the Spider Queen.
As long as he is alive, trying to kill Rose is basically a fool's errand.
What's more, by killing Siventam Velen first, you can directly seize the opponent's power and make yourself stronger. At that time, you may be able to temporarily upgrade from a weak divine power to a medium divine power to gain the capital to confront your mother head-on.
This is why he is willing to pay a huge price to get the help of one of his few allies, Musk.
I have to say that this civil war in the dark elf pantheon is really messy in terms of relationships.
Because Rose is the mother of Velen and Eilistraee, and Velen is the father of Silvettam. Silventam had a crush on her aunt Eilistraee before she was seduced and controlled by her grandmother Rose...
In other words, this is a big fight within the family.
"Okay! I promise to help you this time."
Musk nodded decisively and agreed after careful consideration.
Because no matter how you say it, Silventarm is just a demigod with weak divine power.
Moreover, he does not need to fight head-on. He only needs to wait for Velen to come forward to attract all his attention and then launch a sneak attack. Regardless of success or failure, he can retreat directly.
"Then it's settled. Don't worry, I won't forget this kindness."
Seeing that the last piece of the puzzle leading to victory was obtained, a proud smile appeared on the masked king's face, as if he had seen the faith of the entire dark elf race waving to him.
The two gods who reached an agreement just looked at each other and smiled before disappearing into the darkness at the same time.
To a certain extent, the two of them are quite close in terms of divine nature, so it is no wonder that they can form allies to support each other.
In comparison, Zuo Si's preparations were a bit "unpretentious".
Because he chose to directly call all his heirs together and assigned tasks to everyone.
After all, the best way to deal with beings like Aragami and god-like powers is to use the same god-like powers.
Although his offspring are still a little immature in front of veteran divine powers such as the Beholder Mistress and the Scarlet Queen Paiscaeseth, the mule must be pulled out of the horse.
As for the danger…
Zuo Si himself wasn't too worried.
Because under his personal guidance, even the twins born last had ignited a spark and became planeswalkers.
The self-protection ability of planeswalkers plus divine power is basically unsolvable.
Unless the power of the planeswalker's spark can be limited, or there is a special artifact like the Immortal Sun, you can basically come and go as you please.
"Father, please don't worry. If there really is a divine power, a wild god or an ancient evil being, I will show up as soon as possible to hold them back."
A confident smile appeared on the handsome face of Dark Prince Graya.
As the most obedient and mentally mature of all the children, he did not have the rebellious period like other children, and was Zuo Si's good helper from the beginning.
And as he gets closer to Shar, the goddess of the night, his understanding of darkness and nothingness becomes more profound. His whole person looks like a void node flickering in the material world. He only needs one thought to
Completely swallow up a certain time and space.
"Be careful, don't be too pushy."
Zuo Si patted his eldest son on the shoulder to show his closeness and encouragement.
He is now very sure that Black Prince Graya is qualified to join the battlefield of the War of Sparks.
"Father, can we take the opportunity to eat the souls in Rose's kingdom?" the twins blinked and asked in unison.
"Haha, of course. But don't eat too much, otherwise you will be hated by that resentful woman for the rest of your life."
Zuo Si put some restrictions on Hansel and Gretel in a half-joking tone.
Through simple training, he has basically confirmed that the camp of these two little guys should be neutral evil rather than chaotic evil, so they will basically be obedient as long as it is beneficial.
To be continued...
