I am a god in another world

Chapter 1028: The King of Ghouls

"I haven't seen you for many years, and you are as cunning as ever. Tell me, what difficulties have you encountered this time? Do you need my help?" The King of Ghouls will not be easily led by the King of Corpses.

Even if he urgently needs the other party's intelligence and understands what happened inside the Bone Plain, it will be convenient for him to make the next decision.

Actively asking for intelligence and using intelligence in exchange for one's help are two completely different concepts.

The Corpse King was also an expert. He never mentioned that he was besieged by the Burning Flame Queen's Burning Flame Army and that it was only a matter of time before his territory was seized. Instead, he directly targeted the source of the unrest in the Bone Plains and said, "A divine being has come to the Bone Plains."

This sentence was very important, and the Ghoul King couldn't help but sit up straight and asked, "Divine being? What kind of divine power does it control? Which divine being is it?"

As if he felt that he was asking too urgently and had given up all the initiative, Dorisen tried his best to make up for it, "No wonder all your troops were transferred inland, it turned out to be to fight against this invader!

You, who have always been cautious, are willing to meet me in person at the risk of being completely destroyed, which shows that your situation is not optimistic.

Is that divine being about to annex or destroy your territory, and you need to use my divine power to fight against it?"

Only divine beings can fight against divine beings.

The four high-level undead lords of the Bone Plains are all quite powerful, but they have no divine power of their own, which is their biggest shortcoming.

If it weren't for the gnoll king Yeenoghu's trickery, he would have annexed this place and turned it into part of his white kingdom.

Once all the soul energy there is absorbed, at least tens of millions of ghouls can be born.

This is enough to break the balance of power between himself and the gnoll king, to get rid of his threat and control over himself, and return to the arms of the undead king Orcus.

"It's not as simple as my territory being annexed, but it won't be long before the entire Bone Plains will change hands." The corpse king only talked about the big picture and never mentioned his own predicament.

There is no egg that can be left intact under the overturn.

Similarly, if the ghoul king wants to keep the overall situation, he and his territory will be unavoidable, and the crisis will naturally be solved.

"The Bone Plain has changed hands? How is that possible? Don't you claim to have nearly 10 million undead soldiers?"

"Your Majesty, don't believe this man's alarmist words. Unless the Undead King comes in person, no one can control the Bone Plain in such a short time."

The two ghoul ladies couldn't help but scream and refute.

They almost said that this was something that the ghoul king Dorisen had not done for thousands of years. How could it be done by someone of unknown origin in a minute?

The King of Corpses did not directly defend himself, but asked: "Your Majesty, please allow me to summon the evidence and let you judge for yourself."

He knew the rules of the game in the Abyss very well.

It would be extremely difficult to win people's trust with words.

Compared to this, it is better to put the evidence in front of the other party and let the other party draw the conclusion by himself.

"Your Majesty, no, be careful of fraud!"

"Your Majesty, be cautious!"

The two ghoul ladies advised immediately. Who knows what the other party will summon after releasing the summoning restrictions? It could be the evidence he said, or it could be an ambush.

"Yes!" The ghoul king turned a deaf ear to the advice of the two concubines, pointed his sharp claws at the corpse king, and the pale light around him suddenly converged, and the originally sealed space opened a gap.

It's not that he trusts the corpse king, but he has enough confidence.

This is his Lost Soul King's Court, the most advantageous battlefield for him.

If anyone dares to sneak attack him here, it will only be a trap. Even the jackal king Yenogu dare not easily set foot here.

If the enemy can still pose a fatal threat to him here, it means that the enemy has an overwhelming advantage over him, and it is useless no matter where he hides.

The Corpse King, who had released his summoning ability, did not waste any words. With a wave of his hand, he summoned three strange-looking undead spirits. They were like insects sealed in invisible amber, in a state of absolute stagnation.

Obviously, they were hit by a magic similar to eternal stagnation.

"What kind of undead spirit is this? Why have I never seen this type before?"

"How can a skeleton soldier have six arms? Isn't that a unique ability possessed by snake demons? But the undead spirits transformed by snake demons are not so weak!"

"This one looks like a skeleton minotaur, but how can he have the lower body of a centaur?"

"Isn't this just a shadow? Why did you summon it with so many troops?"

The two ghoul concubines commented on the three unique undead spirits, but failed to guess the true intention of the Corpse King.

"This is..." The ghoul king jumped up from the Lost Soul Throne, stretched out his hand, and a huge force surged, and the huge super skeleton minotaur flew towards him uncontrollably.

Roar!

As soon as the Super Skeleton Minotaur left the side of the Corpse King, he was released from his stasis.

He immediately began to struggle hard, and even wanted to attack the Ghoul King.

Boom!

The strength of the two sides was not at the same level at all. Even in front of the tall and strong Super Skeleton Minotaur, the Ghoul King looked extremely thin and frail.

But he just stretched out a finger and made him unable to move at all, and he knelt down in front of the throne.

Click!

The Ghoul King directly broke off the strongest horn of the Super Skeleton Minotaur from the skull's head, and chewed it like a delicious snack.

"Immortality! Kill! Plunder! Is this the road?" the Ghoul King commented while eating.

He is obviously not as simple as gluttony, but uses this method to conduct more precise analysis.

He became a god because of his gluttony, so his most powerful ability naturally lies in eating.

"This kind of immortal power comes from that bitch Qiyalan Sari. There is still a strong power of revenge hidden in it, but it is definitely not her own. The core concept is wrong. She prefers immortality and is deliberately suppressing the power of revenge. .

I heard that a blasphemer of Qiyalan Sari appeared in the material plane, stealing a large amount of her power, causing her more injuries, and her own power was weakened to an extreme.

This power of killing comes from Baal, the god of murder, and the power of plunder belongs to Garagos the Reaver.

They all belong to the plane of Toril, gods in the Pan-Faerun pantheon.

This Defiler hails from Faerûn on the Material Plane of Toril. "

As the Ghoul King continued to taste, more information was deciphered.

Even the knowledgeable King of Corpses was amazed.

He really couldn't connect the analysis of the origin of power with eating, and the level of detail was far beyond his imagination.

Not only did he distinguish the nature of various powers, he even deduced their origins, thus deducing the origin of the divine being.

What is shown here is not just a matter of ability, but also involves a huge theological system.

The Ghoul King had at least one previous exposure to the powers of Baal, the God of Murder, and Garagos the Reaver, to be able to identify him.

In the multiverse, there is only one bottomless abyss, but there are countless material planes. This means that there are countless gods in the divine system. It is not uncommon for many priests to repeat each other.

There are also aspects of a certain god that appear in different forms in different material planes.

After the King of Ghouls had finished his analysis, the King of Corpses continued to introduce the situation in the Bone Plains: "Not only does the opponent possess numerous divine powers, but his use of strategies and tactics is also something I have never seen before.

The four of us were played around by him, and he actually managed to rise up in a very short period of time. Now he has unified the two territories of Giant Bone and Dragon Bone.

And encouraged Queen Burning Flame to take revenge on me. If it is true, as His Majesty said, that his divine power still contains the divine power of revenge, then Queen Burning Flame's crazy revenge on me is not an accident, but a necessity. .

If it is not handled carefully, it is possible to repeat the mistakes of the belly of death in the plane of bones. "

Thanatos, the Belly of Death, is the 333rd floor of the Abyss, the territory of the immortal king Orcus, which once fell into the control of the immortal goddess of vengeance Qialansari.

From beginning to end, the King of Corpses never mentioned the name of the undead king Orcus, but he never left his side.

Although the King of Ghouls now swears allegiance to the King of Gnolls, as his shaper and the most powerful controller of undead power in the Abyss, Orcus is a presence that he cannot avoid.

When the Immortal Furies are involved, even if they are Blasphemers, it is not just a battle for the Bone Plains, but also involves the long-standing hatred between the two sides.

The King of Ghouls clearly heard the implication of the King of Corpses, and the light in his eyes couldn't help but flash frequently.

The reason why he has not returned to the embrace of the immortal king Orcus is not because he is loyal to Yeenoghu, the King of Gnolls, but because the other party has never contacted him from the beginning to the end.

There was no divine punishment for betrayal, nor was he asked to return.

This makes it impossible for Dorison to guess the true intentions of the Immortal King, and the threat he faces from the Jackal King is real. He has coveted his Hungry Priesthood for many years. Once he gets the chance, he will inevitably There will be a new war between gods.

This is not something that one person can afford.

If part of the power of the Immortal Nemesis is captured, can she please the Immortal Emperor, return to his arms, and help her fight against the King of Jackals?

"If His Majesty is willing to send troops, I will fully support it, not only against the Defilers, but also against the King of Jackals." The King of Corpses finally understood what he was saying.

Now it is no longer the Ghoul King who sends troops to rescue him, but he assists the Ghoul King in starting the battle to unify the Bone Plains.

Dorison said meaningfully: "The message you sent is valuable enough. Today I will do as you wish and send troops to relieve you from the siege. I hope that what you do next will be as you said." , otherwise I don’t mind turning your territory into part of the White Kingdom first.”

The words of the King of Ghouls are undoubtedly telling the King of Corpses that I know your little plan clearly. Now I just have greater interests and don’t care too much with you.

"Your Majesty is wise, I will do my best to hold back the Flame Queen's army of flames and create an opportunity for your Majesty to attack from a pincer attack.

As long as we severely injure her, even if the other party is a divine being, the giant bone and dragon bone leaders alone will not be able to resist our joint efforts, and we will be able to capture the Bone Plains just around the corner. "The King of Corpses continues to draw the pie for the King of Ghouls.

Let's get our own siege first. As for whether we can conquer the Bone Plains and seize the divine power from that divine being, that belongs to the Ghoul King's plan, not his own.

"Go back and wait for the news!" Although the King of Ghouls agreed to the King of Corpses' plan, he did not give an accurate promise.

As a qualified sub-demon lord, he will never trust anyone's promises and information, especially for such major events that involve his own future development and the direction of the entire plane war. Naturally, he will be more cautious and repeatedly confirm the source of information. accuracy.

Then make a war plan that is most beneficial to you based on the situation.

If he finds that it is more beneficial to him to abandon the King of Corpses, he will do so without hesitation.

The King of Corpses knew this very well and was not very worried about it.

Because from the beginning, he did not act from the perspective of his own interests, but from the perspective of the Ghoul King.

He was like a loyal counselor, advising him.

For the Ghoul King, this strategy is the safest and most beneficial.

As for helping yourself out, it's completely incidental.

In order to show his sincerity to the greatest extent, the King of Corpses once again proposed: "Your Majesty can organize an air force to conduct a comprehensive aerial reconnaissance of the entire Bone Plains.

But there is one thing that Your Majesty should be careful about.

The Defiler is very good at using aerial reconnaissance. He is also a powerful necromancer, proficient in the creation of corpses and undead.

He created a new type of undead corpse called the Shadow Aircraft, which not only has a new flight mode, but also has extraordinary air and ground attack capabilities.

When I faced off against him before, I suffered a big loss from this kind of corpse undead.

My army was mobilized, completely under the enemy's gaze.

The enemy took full advantage of this intelligence gap and flexibly circled, outflanked and inserted itself around my army.

With less than a quarter of my troops, they turned me around and entangled me for more than half a month. The ratio of battle losses on both sides reached five to one, and I was the fifth.

When I came, a large number of shadow aircraft not only shuttled through my territory, but also a large number hovered around His Majesty's territory.

It seems that I have guessed that I may unite with His Majesty, and I have begun to make preparations in advance. "

In order to emphasize the power of the shadow craft, the King of Corpses did not hesitate to expose his family scandal.

To prevent the Ghoul King from making the same mistakes, he will only suffer a small loss of troops, but a large loss will be caused by delaying the rescue of his own territory.

"You mean that the Defiler will take the initiative and launch a sniper attack on my ghoul army?" The focus of the Ghoul King is different from what the Corpse King expected.

He didn't pay much attention to the shadow aircraft that the King of Corpses had been emphasizing, but he was more concerned about the possibility of war contained in them.

This was something that the King of Corpses had not thought of before. He couldn't help but remain silent for a few seconds, obviously weighing the possibilities, and finally gave an ambiguous answer: "It's not impossible.

From beginning to end, I never had the chance to meet this defiler.

The Giant Bone King who once fought head-on with him has now become his puppet servant.

He gives me the feeling that he is more cunning than the devil, good at taking advantage of the situation to manipulate, especially good at using soldiers.

Once he reaches an agreement or a tacit understanding with the Burning Queen, he will most likely send troops to stop His Majesty and buy time for the Burning Queen to destroy me. "

Fortunately, the King of Corpses is now a lich, otherwise he would definitely be broken into a cold sweat by this analysis.

Because once that happens, you will be in danger.

"If this situation really happens, it might be an opportunity." The Ghoul King said with a mouth full of terrifying sharp teeth, "You should be very clear about the advantages of holding on to your territory.

If you fail to rush down the enemy's territory immediately and fall into a long war of attrition, it will be extremely disadvantageous to the attacker. It will only send soul energy to the enemy's territory in vain. The opponent controls the immortal priesthood. In this aspect, will be more advantageous.

But if we eliminate his vitality outside his territory, we will have a chance to rush him down in one fell swoop. "

Another reason why the Ghoul King has been unable to take down the Plains of Bones is due to troop restraint.

Ghouls make countless intelligent beings talk about their expressions. Not only do they like to eat the corpses of intelligent creatures, but they also have two unique abilities.

Paralyzes attacks and spawns.

The former will make the victim helplessly watch the ghoul tearing and eating his body while he is still alive. There may even be a horrific situation where the body has been eaten by the ghoul for most of the time, but the victim is not completely dead yet. .

The latter will turn the victim into a new abuser, mercilessly eating his former compatriots and even close relatives.

This makes it much easier for ghouls to storm than skeleton soldiers. The ghoul army will develop and grow like a snowball in a short period of time. No living thing in its path will become part of the ghoul army. one of them, or become their food.

However, these two special abilities are ineffective in front of the undead.

They have no way to paralyze the undead, nor can they transform them into ghouls, because they are already dead themselves and belong to the same category as ghouls.

Once these two special abilities are disabled, the challenge level of the ghoul will be greatly reduced. It is estimated that it is not even half of that of a normal person.

The only thing they can take away seems to be the mouth full of sharp teeth and the sheer number.

But the effect of the Ghoul Sea tactics in his own territory is still very different from that in the Bone Plain.

The Ghoul King has always tried his best to avoid leaving too much soul energy in the Bone Plain.

Therefore, over the years, he has taken a defensive stance against the Bone Plain most of the time, luring them out to attack him and slowly consuming the manpower of the four high-level Undead Lords.

But the four high-level Undead Lords are not stupid. They will occupy and plunder soul energy as much as possible and return to their own territory to strengthen themselves.

Not only in the Bone Plane, but in the entire Abyss, wars are centered around soul energy, which is the foundation of everything.

It's just that here, it is presented in the form of undead.

In other planes, it is in the form of demons.

In the Abyss, there are demons born from the womb, but the proportion is pitifully small. Most demons are born from the demon soul pool, generally in the form of original demons, and then mutate and evolve into various other types of low-level demons. (End of this chapter)
