After the Lord of the Abyss Awakens - Chapter 8
Is it not right?
Xiu Si choked up, tried hard to recall, and finally said, “Sorry, I remembered wrong, you are Aelioge?”
Aelioge nodded, his emerald eyes watery.
Xiu Si touched his head, frowning, “How did you change your appearance?”
Aelioge couldn’t say that he thought his father liked cats more, could he?
However, Xiu Si’s gaze moved upward, noticing the status bar on Aelioge’s head. Like a guide, it was completely gray, and the level had stopped at his death, only at level 6.
But, after thousands of years, it couldn’t possibly be just level 6, right?
Seeing Xiu Si’s puzzled look, Aelioge seemed to understand something, his cat eyes blinked.
Xiu Si looked into his eyes, “Are you asking if I can’t see the status? Yes, I’ve only been awake for a few days, the system hasn’t successfully rebooted, it’s now stopped at the state before death, I can’t see your specific values, nor do I know the status of the other children.”
No wonder he recognized wrong. Aelioge nodded.
With that said, the father wouldn’t know where the other guys were. That is to say, it was a chance to monopolize father!
“Are you the only one, do you know where the other children are?”
Xiu Si asked.
The cat immediately shook his head.
“Is that so.”
Xiu Si seemed thoughtful, then asked, “Are your siblings all right?”
The cat hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
Xiu Si was relieved. Although he didn’t know where the other cubs were, it was fine as long as they were okay.
Thinking of this, he suddenly smiled, “I just read the history books, saw many names like yours, and they were all big demons who were causing trouble and making a fuss, I knew you guys wouldn’t be.”
The cat froze, its pupils trembling, and it didn’t dare to wag its tail.
Xiu Si’s eyes were gentle, “There are too many beings in this world with the same name, just ‘Jack’, ‘Annie’ and so on, I have seen many people.”
The names of people from other worlds were even hereditary, with a high rate of repetition, making it difficult to distinguish.
At this moment, Aelioge was extremely grateful for his father’s dullness, and was certain of one thing.
They really couldn’t let their father know what they had done!
Xiu Si looked at the cat with a thoughtful face, feeling relieved in his heart. His own cub had grown up and still remembered. Aelioge used to be soft and clingy, without a mind of his own, but now it seemed to have thoughts.
The cub still remembered him, which was really great.
However, it was not easy to find one, and it happened to be under such circumstances.
Xiu Si glanced outside, the dark clouds in the sky were pressing down on the city, obviously brewing a very troublesome crisis.
The Divine Kingdom of Light was eyeing the Aust Empire, and it was impossible to retreat easily. You were in the Imperial City, and even if you wanted to leave, you couldn’t.
But what could he do about the existence of that level of the Divine Kingdom of Light? Xiu Si fell into thought.
At this time, the cat scratched him with its paw, as if asking him what was wrong.
“There are some things outside.”
Xiu Si stood up with the cat, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, raised his head, and looked up at the sky.
The huge Sky Kingdom covered the sun and covered the entire Imperial City, one sky, one earth, clearly divided.
There were not no strong people among humans, but the Aust Empire was only a middle-ranking country, with a limited number of strong people. How could they deal with the top-ranking Divine Kingdom in the sky. Even if they asked for help from other human powerhouses, they might not be able to make it in time.
“If this goes on, there will be some trouble.”
Xiu Si’s eyes were heavy.
He looked up again, his gaze fixed in the sky, not noticing that the cat in his arms was staring straight at him.
****
At this time, Luo Jie rushed to the palace and watched from a distance.
The hall was full of people, a group of people running around on the road, and a row of neatly dressed white-robed magicians standing on both sides of the avenue.
This was clearly preparing for the Harmonious War, but would that thing in the sky still choose the Harmonious War.
The legion commanders of the first and second legions were all on the scene, they were all old generals, and also the contractors of Abyss Lords.
This would be a high-level war, they had to strive for as many high-level existences as possible. And the problem was that the high-level existences they could strive for were becoming less and less willing to lend their power.
Philip said, “They are unable to communicate, they might have listened to our voices before, but in recent years, they are becoming less and less cooperative in lending power to us.”
Humans contracted with Abyss Lords, but they did not know the content of the contract, they did not even know what they had sacrificed as a price, they only knew that after the contract was successful, they could borrow a part of the power or even the authority of the Abyss Lords.
And in the content of the contract, there was no power to command the Abyss Lords.
But…they had to try.
On the high platform, Anna raised her eyes, her expression majestic.
The other two legion commanders understood, closed their eyes at the same time, and then a phantom appeared outside their bodies.
–One was the image of a lion-headed, goose-footed, rabbit-tailed being, that was, the Abyss Lord, Inpos.
–One was the image of a human-faced bull, that was, the Abyss Lord, Morax.
As soon as they appeared, the terrifying magic power crushed the whole field, some of the lower-level ones couldn’t even stand, their bodies trembling, their souls trembling.
Suddenly two Abyss Lords appeared, this was too much pressure for them!
Philip also summoned Aelioge, but Aelioge had no reaction at all, the attitude of refusing to cooperate was too obvious.
But the simultaneous appearance of two Abyss Lords was shocking enough.
One should know that usually, to avoid contradictions, they would try not to summon them at the same time.
And sure enough, compared to being upset about humans suddenly summoning them, the two lords’ gazes first fixed on each other, their faces cold and their smiles insincere.
There was no movement on the surface, but the magic power was clashing crazily, almost fighting!
The two legion commanders quickly calmed them down and explained the situation.
The two terrifying phantoms ignored them, Inpos might care a little, but Morax had no concern, his cold eyes could almost freeze everyone in the field.
The leading grand magician was sweating coldly, just by looking directly at the Abyss Lords, his whole body’s magic power was trembling non-stop.
From ancient times to the present, they did not know what the Abyss Lords wanted from humans, what they took from them, they sometimes proposed trades, such as handing over a large amount of magic stones, they dared not risk it.
What other demons were interested in, they were not interested in at all, to communicate with them, to negotiate with them, that was almost impossible.
Therefore, seeing their attitude, the leading grand magician thought to himself that it was indeed so, and at the same time, he was helpless.
The two legion commanders looked worried, but they quickly stabilized the military’s mind.
Morax glanced around, looked at the faces of the humans, as if looking for something, but in the end, he was utterly disappointed, the phantom gradually became transparent, it seemed that he was not interested, he was about to leave.
Inpos was the same, but he looked thoughtfully at the silent empress.
Anna was calm and composed, subtly reminding him of his father.
In the abyss, his father had been like this, as a creator trying to protect their creations, strong and tenacious, unwilling to give in.
Morax glanced at Inpos and said in a voice only they could hear, “What, do you want to help them?”
Inpos paused, glared at Morax with slanted eyes.
Morax chuckled.
Their relationship was generally not good, one reason was that their characters were somewhat similar, the more similar things were, the more likely they were to repel, that’s the general idea.
As for why this was so, of course, it’s because they were all lives shaped on the basis of that person’s humanity, the difference was that the humanity they received was different.
Humanity suppressed the madness of the abyss, allowing them to have reason from chaos.
Therefore, that person was not only their father in form, but also their father in spirit.
But…that person disappeared.
He left them, silently, without reason, he disappeared.
Morax’s eyes darkened, a flash of anger seemed to flash, the magic power surged suddenly, bringing more terrifying pressure.
The people in the field were startled.
Inpos stared at him, suddenly opened his mouth, “What do you want to do?”
Morax said gloomily, “Have you ever thought that it’s useless for us to look for him, because that person left us and went back to his world, he doesn’t want us anymore.”
Everyone was caught off guard by his words, and they all showed shocked faces of different levels.
Looking for? Looking for who?
Who left and went away?
This was the first time that the mysterious Abyss Lord revealed such informative information.
Philip’s eyes widened, extremely concerned about what they were talking about.
And for Morax’s remarks, Inpos frowned and could not refute.
He also had a gloomy face, and said in a low voice, “Maybe, after searching for so long, what should be found has been found, he must be gone. Maybe even if we search the subspace, it’s useless.”
The amount of information was too large. The staff on the scene looked at each other, and someone immediately recorded this conversation.
There had been speculation that the Abyss Lords were looking for something, and now the truth was clear, the Abyss Lords were looking for “him”!
They didn’t know who it was, but it sounded very important to the Abyss Lords.
Was it possible that as long as they found that person, they could get the help of the Abyss Lords?
It seemed that they had been looking for that person for a long time, and they were about to despair. What exactly is the existence that even the Abyss Lords can’t find…
They were talking as if no one else was there, causing countless people to be amazed, but now it was obviously not the time.
Just then, the sky suddenly changed color, from clear blue to deep purple, the sunlight was completely blocked, the earth roared, and the air burned.
In an instant, the high tower didn’t have time to react, and the magic array defending the city immediately shattered a layer.
Everyone felt bad, looked outside, and sure enough, they saw the Divine Kingdom of Light coming back, with dazzling light shining everywhere.
It looked like a huge pure white disc, about to press down from the sky to the ground, not with any fancy means, only with volume crushing.
They wanted to crush the Imperial City alive, and kill every life in the Imperial City, like a giant elephant about to step on an ant.
They even dared to directly challenge the protective rules of the Goddess of Harmony!
“They’re really crazy!”
“Weren’t they going to have a Harmonious War? What are they doing now?”
The huge ships distributed around the military area immediately reacted, the steel torrent, the magic power running, the defense attack went without saying.
The huge ship cannon burning with high-purity magic stones kept bombarding.
Any creature below level fifty or sixty could not survive a hit.
But for this, the Archangel above the Divine Kingdom just found it funny.
“Ants that can only crawl on the ground, also want to challenge my Divine Kingdom of Light.”
For a time, the wind was furious, the strong on the ground glared, and at a glance, they were going to fight to the death!
Seeing this scene, Morax was just watching, there was no reason to help humans.
They used to do it because they thought that person would be happy.
But now, is it useful? That person has already left them!
Morax gritted his teeth, but at this moment, his face changed, and he stared deadly at Aelioge who suddenly appeared.
Aelioge was actually standing in the air, facing the Divine Kingdom of Light directly!
