Chapter 399 The Generous Khalida(1/3)
At this time, she probably saw that Levi had finally finished what he was doing, so she ignored the fighting that was still going on next to her. Khalida walked straight towards Levi and thanked him again.
After witnessing Li Wei's communication with many gods, even as a unique warrior queen, she was willing to let go of her pride.
But Levi would not be much proud of this. People looked more at Lilith and Sobek's face than his own, so he also behaved very modestly.
After a simple communication, Li Wei also roughly learned the ins and outs of the matter.
It turned out that Khalida heard the voice of the Serpent God in the dimness, saying that he had awakened from his long sleep, and had accumulated a lot of strength, and might be resurrected.
But a special place is needed to hold special ceremonies.
The Bone Temple, which is located just south of Lahmia City, is a very suitable place.
This is actually very illogical, because God’s resurrection has never been that simple.
In the past countless years, many gods have died in battle, including those in the elven pantheon.
But currently, except for a very limited number of people such as the God of Tyranny, Bane, there are not many successful examples.
And those who were resurrected, almost without exception, were once powerful gods, and they were resurrected only after they were replaced by descendants of their own blood.
If it was really that simple, the Elf God System could just resurrect the God of Mystery Locks, so why bother here?
But Khalida was once saved from the curse of vampires by the Serpent God, so since then, she has been extremely devout to the Serpent God.
Even though the other party later died in the battle between gods, she did not give up her faith.
So Khalida ran over very excitedly, preparing to resurrect the snake god.
Yes, she really believed it.
Of course, she was not completely defenseless. At least the Bone Temple was once a sacred place for the lizard people, and any foreigners were strictly prohibited from entering. She still knew this.
So she spent several days conducting reconnaissance, trying to find a loophole.
Then she was very surprised to find that the lizardmen suddenly disappeared. She didn't know whether it was due to a change of defense or something else.
Naturally, she rushed in immediately, and was captured by the Viper Queen who had been waiting for a long time with the help of the magic circle.
It turned out that unknowingly, when she heard that voice, she had fallen into the trap of the Viper Queen and Vesharon.
Her devotion to the Serpent God is well known, but it happened to be taken advantage of by the other party.
As for the local lizardman guards, they had actually been killed by the Viper Queen with the help of the magic circle and used as sacrifices.
Levi nodded. It was similar to what he had guessed. No matter how miserable Vesalun was, he was still a magical god.
He shamelessly set this trap for Khalida, and she really didn't have a chance to resist.
She is a warrior queen. Because of her birth, what she knows the most about magic is probably sacrifice.
As for other aspects, don’t expect it.
However, since Velsalun can do such a thing, it means that there is something in Khalida that he should be tempted by.
With this in mind, Levi secretly sent a message to Alyssa through monitoring Ya Kong.
You all like to play with snakes, so you must have something in common, right?
At this time, Khalida also saw the death guards, and her eyes suddenly froze.
"Is that Nagash's work?"
Although her tone was questioning, she was clearly determined.
It’s no wonder that, unlike many Tomb Kings of later generations, she existed at the same time as Nagash. She even witnessed the birth of the vampire race in person, so she naturally knew more about it.
Levi nodded: "Yes, indeed."
He didn't say much. The guardians of the gods of the Tomb Kings were either in the shape of beasts, or they had human bodies and animal heads, but if they were half-human and half-animal, that would be considered a blasphemy to the gods.
It's not yet clear what Khalida thinks about the scorpion guards, so he doesn't want to go into too much detail.
Unexpectedly, not only did she not have any displeasure, she actually became slightly excited: "If you can make a scorpion, can you also make a half-man and half-snake?"
Levi immediately understood the meaning: "Don't you think so?"
Khalida nodded and said: "Yes, the God of Poisonous Snakes once had special Nether Guards under his command, who were half-human and half-snake."
"I have been researching before, but the information was lost in past wars and there is no relevant inheritance."
"I originally learned military formations and bows and arrows, rather than making guards of the gods, so the experiments in Lahmia City have not been successful for many years."
Although Li Wei was very interested, he could only sigh with regret.
"Nagash probably recorded different manufacturing methods in different nine volumes of Nagash. At least the one I got does not have snake-shaped death guards on it."
"Death Guard?" Khalida snorted, "Does he really want to become a god or a god of death?"
Levi became slightly interested: "Oh, did he have this idea in the first place?"
Although what Nagash did back then was not a big secret, his talent was recognized by the gods.
But as for his true intention, perhaps not even the gods can truly understand it.
According to historical records, Nagash may have wanted to become the true king of kings at first, but first of all, he himself was not in the right position. He succeeded to the throne by killing his brother through conspiracy and trickery.
In a world where gods and magic exist, such a small trick cannot be expected to be covered up for a long time.
His emotional intelligence was also a bit low, he didn't know how to win people's hearts, and his rule was too cruel, which led to the rise and fall of rebels, and he was successfully overthrown not long after.
Perhaps seeing that his goal could not be achieved, he simply used evil magic to pollute the water source, killing tens of millions of people in one breath.
But after Li Wei saw it, he always felt something was not right.
Could it be that such a powerful and talented mage killed so many people just to vent his anger?
That's too disdainful. He shouldn't be so superficial. He must have deeper considerations.
Khalida glanced at him: "Yes, Nagash is the most genius and possibly the strongest mage in history."
"But he is a mortal after all, so he finally figured out that mortals have limits, but gods may not, so he tried to become a god."
In fact, this is also a problem that many powerful mages struggle with. When the strength has been improved to a certain level, there is no way to continue to improve simply by killing enemies.
In other words, most aboriginal mages actually do not kill people.
They may go out to participate in some adventures when they are weak, but when their strength reaches a certain level, they will turn to study various magics, and even conduct many experiments themselves, etc.
But magic is dangerous. Every year, there are countless mages who are disabled, die, or worse, have their souls taken away by demons and other alien creatures due to failed experiments.
Moreover, the lifespan of mortals is limited after all. Elves and other long-lived races are okay, but ordinary humans only live a hundred years or so.
Therefore, many mages will find ways to extend their life in the later stage, including but not limited to transforming themselves into necromancers or lichs, etc. This is also one of the reasons why undead creatures continue to emerge in the main world.
As for the most ideal thing, of course it is to become a god.
But compared to the countless mortal beings, there are only a few hundred gods in total.
Khalida then said with a slight sarcasm: "Killing tens of millions of people at once is the most important step in his plan to become a god in one fell swoop, but he thought becoming a god was too simple."
Hearing this, Li Wei didn't know what to say for a while. Can he become the God of Death just by killing people?
If an ordinary person said this, they would definitely be considered crazy.
But when the person doing this is Nagash and there are so many of them, it's really hard to say.
But unless Nagash is resurrected, it doesn't make much sense for them to discuss this here.
So Levi changed the subject again: "I want the nine volumes of Nagash in the hands of the Vampire Queen and the Silver Blood Army, but if there are any methods of making snake constructs, I will give them all to you."
Khalida was also very straightforward: "Okay, I will personally lead the army to fight."
Having said that, she still looked at the death guards, obviously very interested in them.
Levi pretended to ponder for a moment: "Well, for the time being, you can only make them when you have the nine volumes of Nagash. If you need it, I can give you part of it, but I also hope to get some of Lamia City's
Special products to enhance the combat effectiveness of my troops."
He originally planned to use the Sphinx, and even the other Death Guards, in exchange for Khalida's opportunity to send troops to the Silver Blood Army.
But now that he had saved her life, he would naturally not do it again, so he didn't even mention the Sphinx.
Rather than taking the initiative, it would be better for the other generals of Lahmia City to report it to Khalida. The effect would only be better.
Khalida agreed readily: "Of course there is no problem, but Lamia City only has jackals and graveyard knights, not as many types as you."
Levi was very surprised and said: "Isn't it right? The God-chosen hero named 'Ramses' who attacked me before used a giant tomb scorpion, and there were more than one."
"Sniping you?"
"That's right, my subordinates bought the information about your trip to this place from him. Later, for some unknown reason, he regretted it."
Khalida suddenly frowned, bought her information?
Sure enough, these God-chosen heroes are unreliable. They only run for profit and have no loyalty at all at critical moments.
Then she thought of the giant scorpion in the ancient tomb, and she couldn't help but frown again.
"It's true that none of my subordinates have any. It's possible that he secretly colluded with other Tomb Kings."
Although the Tomb Kings are a faction, they have extremely serious internal conflicts with each other.
Except for the Immortal Emperor Settra who conquered the east and west and conquered almost all the other Tomb Kings. She also outwardly surrendered in order to be quiet. The other Tomb Kings will still frequently engage in internal fighting, and sometimes it will inevitably spread to
