A NECROMANCER WHO JUST WANTS TO PLANT TREES
Chapter 1701: 463 Subtle Fate and True Order_2Chapter 1701: 463 Subtle Fate and True Order_2
Given time,
he was bound to re-emerge, involved in a plot big enough to overthrow one of the major Northland cities.
He, the God of Murder Taillon, would most certainly do so.”
That was the closing passage of the book.
Matthew remembered it vividly, so much so that he couldn’t help but glance at the author’s name.
It was a rather obscure Northern Mage, who seemed to reside near Roderick’s territory, using the pen name “Shadow Doll.”
...It was obvious.
This was a spellcaster who had thoroughly studied the God of Murder.
While the God of Murder himself wasn’t very well-known, He was one of the most famous gods in the world of Aindor.
Besides the dark history of being parasitized by Jassiliven, causing never-ending turmoil in the Heavenly Family Palace.
The God of Murder’s fame mostly came from the three Holy Artifacts He left behind, namely —
The “Death Coin,” which brought misfortune to whoever held it;
The “Blade of the Ignorant,” which imbued its holder with boundless courage;
And the most mystical and bizarre of all, the “Shadow Doll.”
These three Holy Artifacts had caused quite a few disturbances in the history of Aindor, especially in the cities of the Northland, where many ambitious schemers still falsely claim to possess the Holy Artifacts of the God of Murder to deceive others.
The reputation of the Three Holy Artifacts was evident.
In recent years, the commotions surrounding the Holy Artifacts had gradually subsided, as two of them had landed in the hands of the Ingram family.
Following the Blood-Drinking Mountain incident.
Matthew received a bracelet from the Ingram family, and after handing it over to Richard to unlock, the wealth inside was staggeringly impressive.
At the same time,
he also obtained the Blade of the Ignorant, concealed within the bracelet, on top of the Death Coin which he had already acquired earlier.
Of the three Holy Artifacts of the God of Murder, Matthew alone had obtained two.
It must be said that the artifacts indeed possessed something special.
Upon acquiring them, Matthew immediately felt the strong divinity and divine power contained within.
But very soon,
he also detected a highly concealed mental power trap within both artifacts —
The traps influenced the holder’s personality to progressively become more sinister, indifferent, cruel, and paranoid.
They also tended to favor conspiracy over genuine skill in solving problems.
To Matthew,
the Holy Artifacts indeed offered a significant power boost to their holder.
But those lured by power gradually had their souls and character transformed, and in some way, this seemed to quite fit the element of “conspiracy.”
Looking at it this way,
it seemed very possible that the God of Murder was hiding in some corner, perpetuating certain plots through the power of the Holy Artifacts.
Unfortunately,
He had encountered Matthew.
Upon realizing the existence of the mental power traps, Matthew didn’t hesitate to throw both Holy Artifacts into Lost Paradise!
Within Lost Paradise,
Matthew’s Founder Authority was omnipotent.
He directly used the divine power of Lost Paradise to cleanse the spiritual imprints on the two Holy Artifacts completely.
Leaving behind only the divinity and a wealth of murderous elements within the artifacts.
At this step,
Matthew could, if he wished, become the God of Murder in Lost Paradise —
Or he could grant the authority and divine title of the God of Murder to another creature in Lost Paradise.
This was true divinity.
The only issue was that this kind of god’s influence was limited to inside Lost Paradise in the short term.
He could only work for Matthew within Lost Paradise until it grew into a true Heavenly Family Palace and thus influenced the entire world of Aindor, at which point the gods within would possess power corresponding to their divinity and divine titles throughout the entire world of Aindor.
It was a lengthy process.
But Matthew thought that if he announced a public tender, there would likely be a great number of short-lived individuals vying for the position.
After all,
entry into Lost Paradise offered a form of immortality, which was an irresistible proposition for many.
“If the God of Murder Himself is indeed still alive and has been accumulating something through the three Holy Artifacts, then by cleansing two of them with Lost Paradise, have I inadvertently hit a sore spot?”
“And is it precisely because of my inadvertent actions that these Frenzies have appeared?”
Matthew suddenly considered this possibility.
But what did it mean to be parasitic?
And what was the deal with those Zerg race?
He rubbed his temples, attempting to sort through his tangled thoughts.
“Basically, there are three possibilities,”
“First, as I initially guessed, the mastermind behind the Frenzy incident in the city is Jassiliven, who has possessed the original body of the God of Murder, so leaving behind one or two doppelgangers would not be strange.”
“What died at Peggy’s hand was just one of her Eight-faced Souls; the eight faces of the Thousand Transformer don’t mean she has eight lives but rather several souls that can exist independently from the main soul,”
“According to Peggy, a sub-soul cannot share the main soul’s memories. If that is the case, then this Jassiliven may not even be aware of what happened in my Spiritual Space…”
“The second possibility, it’s the God of Murder Himself, and the supposed state of being parasitic is just a ruse.”
“The third possibility, it’s neither Jassiliven nor the God of Murder Himself, but a Zerg race from a nearby secondary plane who found a doppelganger of the God of Murder. Under the parasitism of Queen Zerg, they began subsequent actions…”
No matter who it is.
Just kill them!
Matthew’s gaze gradually sharpened.
Following that,
he further activated Equalized Perception, utilizing the advantages of the Legendary Path to comprehend the changes in the Chaos Storm.
In Matthew’s mind.
