Chapter 72 New Plan
Ai is actually quite experienced in making a soulless shell move.
By simply transplanting the player consciousness from Earth, we can obtain a "compliant and useful" tool.
However, this time, Ai doesn't intend to do that.
Because what Ai wanted these three bodies to do was to attract the attention of the gods as much as possible, so that the God of Light and the Gluttonous Dragon would cut them apart.
This is not a suitable thing for players to do, because it would reveal too much to them and expose their relationship with the Gluttonous Dragon under the watchful eyes of the gods.
Therefore, Ai decided to personally control these three empty shells.
These past few months, he's been feeling incredibly bored holed up in the divine realm, even though he can connect to Earth's network through the blue orb Ai Yi, allowing him to watch anime, browse videos, and play games at will.
But these forms of entertainment are no longer enough to satisfy Ai.
I watch anime at 4x speed the whole time, I don't have the patience to watch even a one-minute short video, and I don't even want to open games.
Ai felt she needed more comprehensive and realistic stimulation.
Consciousness grafting, physical manipulation.
When the three blank bodies reopened their eyes, Ai had completely taken control of them.
Ai's perspective at this moment is very strange. Combined with the perspective of the Gluttonous Dragon in human form, Ai now has four fields of vision and four bodies to control.
The four perspectives stared at each other, and Ai couldn't tell which was the main point, so she silently turned off two of them.
According to Ai's original plan, he would control three people by himself and venture into Errol as a team.
The idea is good, and Ai's current god-like level of thinking can support it. However, playing three roles at once is too troublesome and exhausting. Ai is prepared to go on adventures, not to train herself to divide her thinking into four threads.
Therefore, Ai Yi ultimately only retained control over an empty shell, which was the burly man that "Blooming Fortune" controlled in the closed beta 0.1.
Black hair and black eyes, a chiseled face, and a robust physique.
Ai controlled the burly man to look up and meet his gaze as he sat on the black throne.
The next moment, Ai Yi suddenly became a drama queen.
He controlled the burly man to kneel on one knee before himself on the throne, and spoke in his deep, resonant voice: "Your subject Alpha greets the great Gluttonous Dragon!"
Listening to myself talk gives me goosebumps.
Ai subconsciously looked around. Fortunately, this was the Kingdom of the End Gods, and there was no one else here except him.
Without much hesitation, the Gluttonous Dragon vanished from the dark throne and returned to the Heavenly Kingdom.
Ai also controlled Alpha to slowly get up, preparing to leave the Kingdom of the End God.
However, he stopped abruptly after only a few steps, and Ai, who had transformed back into the God of Light in the Heavenly Kingdom, instantly became busy.
He arrived at the place in the divine realm where the players' offerings were stored.
According to usual practice, Ai would probably throw these things to the Ruhr Royal Palace so that they could reuse them.
This time, however, Ai found several pieces of good quality equipment and weapons inside, then used her power to modify them to fit Alpha's body shape, and used Chaos Points to enhance them.
According to equipment level, the equipment and weapons that were originally only of the "Good Weapon - Green Standard" have now been upgraded by Ai Yi to the "Spirit Weapon - Golden Legend".
(P.S.: Artifacts are classified into four grades: Common, Good, Spiritual, Sacred, and Divine. Each grade is further divided into: White (Inferior), Green (Standard), Blue (Rare), Purple (Legendary), and Gold (Legendary).)
This is arguably the best weapon Ai has ever used, aside from the Eternal Spear, the Eternal Longsword, and the Sword of Courage... although it is far inferior to the aforementioned three weapons.
"Let's call the armor the Greed Set, and the greatsword the Greed Grip!"
Ai named it on instinct, and then sent the all-black equipment to the End God Kingdom, controlling Alpha to put on the equipment.
After everything was in place, Ai, dressed in the Greed Set and carrying the Grip of Greed, walked out of the End God Kingdom.
Since the divine kingdom has no clear location in the mortal world, Ai chose to settle in Kolster, appearing on the tall city walls of this black city.
Ai appeared silently, unnoticed by anyone.
Upon arriving in Kolster, Ai felt a strong stench of blood and an inexplicable chill wash over her, and the entire Kolster was shrouded in heavy dark clouds.
The former is the aura of a mixture of orc and human blood, while the latter is the chilling aura emanating from countless wandering souls outside the mortal world.
Aside from devout believers whose souls can go to the realm of the supreme god after death, the world of Errol does not have a specific destination for souls like Hell or the Underworld.
Although the so-called abyss exists, it is nothing more than a place buried deep beneath the world of Errol, a realm where demons and evil gods have lingered on since ancient times.
Meanwhile, the authority over souls in the world of Errol is still held by that simple-minded orc from the War Hall.
He only knew how to use this authority to enhance his own power, creating a similar entity called the Hall of Heroes, where the heroes also had the same mechanism of resurrection as the players.
However, due to the self-repair and closure of the Errol world, the heroic spirits nurtured within the Hall of Heroes, which extends from the power of soul authority, cannot descend to the mortal world, causing the [Hall of War] to fall into the awkward situation of having trump cards but being unable to play them.
Now Ai is somewhat looking forward to seeing how the [Hall of War] will respond next.
A slight smile played on Ai's lips as he unsheathed the Greedy Grip from behind his back. He slammed the black greatsword heavily in front of him and unleashed its power without hesitation.
A powerful suction force erupted from the Grip of Greed, greedily devouring all traces of blood and wandering souls.
For true gods, such things may not be of much use.
But for the evil god, these things are a great tonic, containing considerable chaotic power.
Now, wearing the Alpha Vest, Ai identifies himself as a familiar of the Gluttonous Dragon, and gathering chaotic power for the Gluttonous Dragon is what he needs to do now.
As the Grip of Greed devoured the life force and wandering souls permeating the city of Kolster, a series of fierce gusts of wind instantly swept through the entire city.
Above the thick clouds that shrouded Kolster, an even more terrifying vortex appeared.
A fierce wind howled, and the entire city of Kolster was instantly turned into a mess, but the players who were doing quests in the city became excited in an instant.
They rushed toward the center of the vortex and soon spotted a man standing atop a high wall, dressed in black and as imposing as a small mountain.
"Holy crap, what's that? A powerful wild human NPC?"
Some players couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, while others took photos and posted them on the forum, asking if anyone knew the identity of this powerful human NPC.
"This guy looks familiar, like I've seen him somewhere before!"
