#154 - Section 154
But in the dream, the Goddess of War was summoned from the abyss, and the Eternal Night Empress discovered that the Seven Gods had set their sights on the bottomless abyss.
In the conventional sense, the outer planes cannot provide faith.
The demon gods born in the Abyss and Hell are inherently divine and do not need faith to maintain their ancient existence.
At that time, the Eternal Night Empress thought that the Seven Gods had found a new way to use the abyss to provide faith, so she sent people to investigate the situation, and if possible, to carry out some destruction...
Although the demons are now suppressed by the devils and their strength is not as good as before, a major advantage of demons is their number. As long as the origin of chaos exists, they will be born endlessly.
If the demons are all believers of the Seven Gods, then the power of faith provided will definitely be very considerable...
The final investigation result did not find that the Seven Gods used the abyss to draw faith, but created many vacuum planes.
The Eternal Night Empress has ordered the investigation team to be divided into two groups, half of whom will continue to scout for information in the abyss to confirm the existence of more vacuum planes;
The other half will go to the Astral Plane to seek more plane intelligence to confirm whether there are such vacuum planes outside the abyss.
She doesn't know what the purpose of the Seven Gods is in doing this, she can only expect to grasp more information and understand the action clues of the gods, and maybe she can infer some clues.
Immediately, the Eternal Night Empress herself returned to the Maple Spirit Moon Shadow Palace, but she always couldn't help but be distracted suddenly, to speculate on the purpose of the Seven Gods in creating vacuum planes.
The former Eternal Night Empress knew that the Seven Gods were powerful, but she still dared to fight against them, thinking that it was better to die in a vigorous battle than to be a lamb providing faith to the Seven Gods.
But now, having witnessed the vacuum plane, and glimpsing the great power it represents, the Eternal Night Empress felt her own insignificance.
So many people made a vigorous effort, but there was never a result.
The former courage suddenly disappeared.
The greedy monster she thought she knew suddenly had her own ideas and possessed unimaginable power. The enemy suddenly became difficult to fight, and she couldn't help but feel confused.
Facing the Seven Gods, insisting on herself and betting on the power of the whole country to resist might just be a joke that people can easily crush?
When a reckless man who was unwilling to think was shocked to begin thinking, he suddenly discovered that this world was terrifying to contemplate, and all that emerged in his mind were bad things.
If it were the Eastern world, her Dao heart would be broken, and she would be possessed by a demon(走火入魔: cultivation deviation);
If it were modern psychology, it would be called post-traumatic stress disorder;
If it were in this world... oh, this world values techniques over the heart, and it may be proclaimed by the church as pursuing dark power and then suffering a backlash.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?" Roger also noticed that something was wrong with the Eternal Night Empress. She stopped talking and fell into thought, and then her face became paler and paler, and she didn't respond no matter how he called.
Can offline communication suddenly drop?
Roger called several times without response, and couldn't help but worry.
He turned the fork upside down and poked the Empress's hand on the table with the silver handle...
"Rude! Bold! You..."
The Eternal Night Empress came back to her senses and slapped the table, wanting to reprimand this kid's frivolous behavior, but suddenly caught a glimpse of the concern in his eyes, and couldn't say the following words.
She took a breath and whispered, "Sorry, I was distracted thinking about things."
Roger said worriedly: "Your Majesty doesn't need to worry too much about failure..."
"I'm not worried about failure!" The Eternal Night Empress immediately retorted.
Roger looked at her with a non-smiling expression, and rarely even made the Eternal Night Empress feel guilty and turned her face away.
This seems to also indicate that she was indeed shocked by this discovery?
In front of her subordinates, the Eternal Night Empress had to pretend to be calm, as if everything was under her control.
But facing Roger, she subconsciously no longer hid her true emotions.
To be honest, Roger was also flustered, but if his teammates panicked, it would be meaningless for him to complain with them.
He didn't continue to make fun of the Eternal Night Empress, but comforted her: "There is an old saying in the ancient East, misfortune may be a blessing in disguise. Your Majesty's discovery shows that the Seven Gods are stronger than expected, but it also confirms that their goal is the entire multiverse. Perhaps in this way, it shows that they can invest less combat power in our world."
"It seems to make some sense, but after all, winning or losing depends on other people's faces, which is not what I want," the Eternal Night Empress sighed quietly.
"I think what the Seven Gods intend to do, and now there is a shortcut in front of us."
"What shortcut?"
"Catch a believer with a high enough status and torture them to ask what their boss wants to do!" Roger said slowly, "For example, that Sharty Veronica, even if she doesn't know the true intention of the God of Knowledge, but if she is put into the realm of inner demons and observed carefully... maybe there will be unexpected discoveries?"
The Eternal Night Empress listened, her eyes gradually lit up, and then looked at Roger playfully: "You are really willing... I'll reward you!"
She forked a large cherry on the table as a dessert after the meal and sent it to Roger.
Until she noticed the hesitation in Roger's eyes, the Eternal Night Empress realized that this action had a bit of that suggestive meaning in it.
Chapter 135 Another ' right'?
The Eternal Night Empress swore to the lamp that she really didn't want to seduce her subordinate minister just now!
Among the food on the table, this dish of big cherries is the most suitable to fork up at once, and she also wants to praise Roger for his good idea.
This idea can be said to have directly betrayed Sharty, and the Empress has always believed that she and Roger have an extraordinary relationship.
From the last time she tried to stop herself from cleaning her up, to now actively offering it, there is no doubt that this is the great success of my charm, defeating that old woman!
The Eternal Night Empress was happy for a while, and her actions were faster than her brain——
So don't blame me!
If you want to blame, you can only blame this cherry for being so good, the color is too conspicuous, and the posture displayed in the dish is too tempting, she really couldn't help but fork it~
However, I am a bad woman, so what if I am really seducing my subordinate minister?
She tried to suppress her panic, pretending to be an old driver who dared to drive on any broken road, and handed the fork in her hand forward a few points, and said softly: "What, do you think I am too small?"
The big, round, and fully ripe cherry has an alluring red color, coupled with the Empress's low and seductive voice at the moment, suddenly made Roger feel a sense of dryness.
Too small, what is too small, cherry or mind?
He didn't dare to talk nonsense about this, and Her Majesty's mind is indeed quite generous, and there is absolutely no flat attribute...
"Dare not, dare not... Your Majesty is of course the right size!"
He quickly finished answering, and immediately bit the big cherry, without even tasting the taste, he vaguely swallowed the cherry meat and spit out a pit to show that his satisfaction was very high.
The Eternal Night Empress didn't look at him again, but lowered her head and pretended to taste the deliciousness of the magic antelope leg, her face quietly flushed.
What she asked was the cherry on the fork, but when Roger answered, it made her realize that this sentence seemed to be more than just an explanation for the cherry.
MD, was I teased as a result?
How can a gentleman comment on whether a lady is big or not in person?
Although this lady has always been confident, she was also made to feel her heartbeat accelerating, and the temperature of the restaurant where only two people were present quietly rose.
But there is also a kind of happiness that I don't understand.
Bah, what's there to be happy about, what is just right?
Whether I am big or small, I am not born for this kid, how can there be such a thing as just right?
I don't want to be happy for this affirmation!
If I had known, I should have mocked with contempt when that kid spit out the cherry pit, "At a young age, you're really quick to finish."
Unfortunately, I missed that opportunity, and now it's no use complaining.
As the saying goes, the more you think about it, the more angry you get. The Eternal Night Empress deeply hates that she is not a real old driver. She failed to tease others, but made herself shy.
Embarrassing!
She was angry in her heart, so she could only finely cut the magic antelope leg in front of her into mincemeat(臊子: Minced meat).
Roger looked thoughtful.
[So this abyss mutton, is it eaten like this?]
So he also learned from the Eternal Night Empress and finely cut the remaining magic antelope leg meat into mincemeat, thinking that he would taste a unique flavor.
The result was greatly disappointing.
After cutting for a long time, there was no difference?
Abyss Magic Antelope: If I am guilty, please eat me directly, don't have to endure this kind of piecemeal torture after I die, okay?
The Eternal Night Empress stared at his disappointed and confused face, and suddenly stopped being angry, and chuckled: "Stupid to the extreme..."
But she was too embarrassed to explain her anger at the food, and pretended that nothing had happened, and continued the previous topic: "Tell me, how can you suddenly go and catch Aunt Veronica again?"
"Because the empire is becoming more and more prosperous, the threats we face are also changing..."
Roger reported to her one by one the arrangements made by the Dark Guard these days.
Including the need for the Eternal Night Empress to take action at the end to capture Sharty alive.
The Eternal Night Empress listened very carefully, and as soon as he finished speaking, she immediately said: "Roger, my dear, would you like to personally finish this layout and show off your combat power?"
Roger smiled wryly: "Of course I want to, but Sharty's strength should not only be calculated as an ordinary legend. It is still necessary for Your Majesty to take action to ensure everything is safe..."
"It's good that you want to, it's very simple."
The Eternal Night Empress smiled, "I said, at the right opportunity, I can lend you strength again."
She mobilized a huge amount of magic power with her fingertips, and Roger was controlled by the mage's hand and directly pulled to the Empress's side.
The hem of her outer robe was lifted, and magic power fell on Roger's leg, writing a horizontal stroke, a vertical stroke...
These strokes are more complex than the previous magic beacon structure. The dense magic lines are dizzying, and there are many rules that are obviously not common in the Eternal Night world.
Looking closely at the structure, it is actually the blockade that the Eternal Night Empress broke in the abyss, analyzed and reorganized.
After taking a trip to the abyss, although she saw news that made her very annoyed, Amiras's analysis of the world's root source law-level magic from the Source Sea also gave the Eternal Night Empress a lot of inspiration.
In fact, the magic power consumed by this ' right' character is more massive than the first one, but the Eternal Night Empress's strength at this time is not what it used to be.
There was no fatigue on her face that day, and she completed the magic smoothly with ease.
A ' right' character that is darker than black, as if even light is absorbed, is written on Roger's leg.
In a few seconds, it was like the ink was drying.
The flow of magic power and the fine structure flowing on it became invisible. Now it looks like a simple character written by an ordinary person.
But Roger felt as if he was connected to a sea, and he could freely control the sea-like magic power through the second ' right' character and turn it into earth-shattering magic.
He had experienced this feeling once and knew that the sea was the Eternal Night Empress's seemingly endless magic power.
In this way, he was once again connected to the Eternal Night Empress, and she became a human-shaped plug-in that could allow him to burst out that cheating-like casting ability.
But the next moment, the passage was closed, and Roger could not sense the sea.
Obviously, this is the Eternal Night Empress's magic power. If she doesn't want to use it for herself, then she can't use it.
"Incomplete divine descent?" Roger discerned that the principle of this ' right' character's mobilization of power is very similar to the way gods bestow divine arts on priests.
It's just that the strength upper limit and freedom are far beyond legendary priests. It is "god-level" power, but there is no consciousness to control his body, so he said it is an incomplete divine descent.
The Eternal Night Empress's blue eyes flashed playfully: "Hee hee, how can you be sure it's incomplete? Maybe after you borrow the power, I'll control you to ride a royal griffon around the city, flying without taking off your clothes, and the wind blowing on your butt is very cool~"
Roger replied with a righteous face: "Your Majesty, I believe in your moral bottom line."
The Eternal Night Empress snorted and made a 'you're smart' expression.
She then asked with a smile: "What do you think of calling this new rune 'Little Empress'?"
Roger's face collapsed. Isn't this the nickname given to him by those officials when they mocked him?
Originally, one Eternal Night Order was enough for them to be jealous of, but now they can remotely borrow part of the Eternal Night Empress's magic power. Has this become a little empress?
Official Tucao(吐槽: Complain), the most deadly... Dame!
He will never use this name, he will resist to the death!
"I believe that the rune should be called 'Magic Emperor's Order'. Your Majesty, you are not only the secular empress, but also the empress of all magic in this world. When I borrow your power, I am acting on behalf of the magic empress's orders and controlling thunder and lightning."
"There is some truth to it, you can be happy."
The Eternal Night Empress waved her hand, pretending to be indifferent.
Actually, I'm thinking seriously in my heart, Magic Empress? This title sounds pretty good.
I heard that when empress-level figures communicate in the multiverse, they have to start with a long enough rap to overwhelm others in terms of momentum.
So, I will also have a very, very, very long title in the future, so I will write this down first!
