"Teacher Jialib, I have never doubted you. I just want to know what happened." Ryan was also shocked by Jialib's performance. He suddenly felt that what he said before was true. It's too unkind. Let's not talk about Ghalib's guidance to him. Just from the fact that he is the strongest field-level expert on Ryan's side, he has blocked crises for Ryan and the others more than once.
Catherine attacked Cassano at night, and later Astarot arrived on the continent of Eslar... It can be said that it is impossible to survive so many crises without Ghalib's control, even if Ryan can now join forces with Faras They exerted domain-level combat power, but the two of them were still far inferior to Galib in terms of experience. If Galib was determined to deal with Ryan, he would not need to use any means at all. A direct attack would be enough to kill everyone including Ryan. Killing, maybe the truth is just like what Jalibu said when he first arrived, it was an accident.
"Alas." Ghalib sighed and explained in a tired tone: "When the demigod lich transformed Catherine into a lich, he deprived her of a small fragment of her soul. This is what caused Catherine to be controlled by Its method, I promised Catherine to eliminate this for her, but after several years of hard work, I failed. I am not proficient in this aspect of magic. Of course, this is not the key. The key is that my strength is not enough. Confronting a demigod head-on, the demigod Lich Kangs is not a wasted name, it has reached the true demigod state."
After hearing these words, Astarot was shocked. The seven kings of the other world have been working hard to increase their power. This is how the once-in-a-millennium war was born. But right under their noses, the eighth A demigod-level strongman was quietly born. This can not but be said to be a great irony. However, what shocked Astarot even more was that it was Ryan and his companions. It turned out that many years ago, These humans and their ancestors were already resisting an attack by a demigod. It's ridiculous that Astaroth once threatened Ryan with the elite legion under the Demon Prince, but even a demigod couldn't help but speak out. People to win over,
Just when Astarot was congratulating himself for making the most correct decision in his life, Ghalib spoke again: "It is said that tens of thousands of years ago, a main god died. Although the god has almost infinite life, As long as there is life, there will be death. When their long lives come to an end, they will still fall. This main god has predicted his own death and the birth of a new god through some powerful language magic, so he has chosen for his God's chosen ones. The oracle was left behind.”
"In the oracle, the main god said a lot of very important, but quite vague things at the key points. However, I don't know the specific content. Catherine only learned about it from her teacher, the demigod lich. Very little information." Ghalib said: "Catherine should still look at my incompetent father. She told me a lot about the demigod lich. She hopes to obtain the godhead of the fallen god. The Lich, who thus allowed himself to truly ignite the divine fire, has been searching for nearly ten thousand years in countless planes, and the focus of his search is the diamond-shaped fragment we just saw."
"The diamond-shaped fragment, the transparent one, seems to contain countless scenes at a glance, like a complete world..." After listening to Galib's explanation, Ryan said it while recalling what he had seen before. ,
As a result, before Ryan could finish these words, he was interrupted by Jialibu, who also replied: "Yes, that's it. According to Catherine's guess, this diamond-shaped fragment should be the fallen god. If all the fragments of the crystal left behind can be pieced together, they should be able to inherit the godhead of the fallen god, or learn how to ignite the divine fire from it. Catherine has heard the demigod lich mention this thing many times. It calls this diamond-shaped fragment the 'Fragment of God'."
"Fragments of God, inherit the divine personality, ignite the divine fire." A series of words flashed through the minds of Ryan and others next to Galib. Obviously, what Galib said here today was beyond everyone's ability to bear, but said It seems normal. Except for the Lane couple who have stepped into the realm, others are still lingering in the legendary realm, or simply have not stepped into that step at all. With their strength, how can they imagine the power of a god
Among these people, the most excited person is naturally Astarot. His master is a demigod, so Astarot knows very well the gap between a demigod and a strong person in the field, and He even inferred the demigod's fear and yearning for the power of gods from the few words he heard when getting along with the demon prince on a daily basis.
It can be seen from this that igniting the divine fire and forming his own godhead has what kind of temptation for Astarot who has been stuck in the realm for a long time. However, Astarot has not been carried away by the fanatical brain. He does not think that he If he could snatch these things from a demigod, then the most beneficial way for him might be to tell the demon prince about it.
Ghalib turned a blind eye to Astarot's little thoughts. He continued to tell everyone: "The appearance of the fragment here was an accident. Catherine promised me that I would think about it carefully. This is why I want to take her with me." One of the reasons is that I hope that our performance in the Thousand-Year War can give Catherine hope of defeating her teacher. However, when the fragments appeared, she should have finally made a choice, so I have to be right about her behavior. I'm sorry, everyone, this was so sudden and completely disrupted my plans."
"Ghalib, I have a question, please forgive me." Victor suddenly asked: "Did Catherine see the fragment of God first and then make a choice; or had she already made a choice, she followed We are just here to get something, as the demigod lich himself said before, they found Ryan's rise very quickly, so they hope to win over him, just like they used all kinds of means to win over Nicholas and Catherine."
"Teacher Victor, I think it's just a conspiracy by the demigod lich to drive a wedge between us." Ryan stood up and loudly defended Ghalib. Both parties were his teachers and played a key role in his growth. role, so Ryan doesn’t want anything unpleasant to happen between Victor and Ghalib,
"I estimate that the latter is more likely than what you said." Ghalib said slowly: "Victor, I'm sorry. Catherine is my daughter after all. No matter what she did wrong, I will always forgive her." Take responsibility for her.”
"But you shouldn't be responsible for these things, Jialib." Victor said with some displeasure: "You are you, and she is her. I can understand the feeling of a father who loves his children, but..." When Victor said this, he couldn't go on any more, because Jialib lowered his head and faced him, making a gesture of refusing to scold or fight back. With Jialib's strength, This action showed his greatest sincerity, so Victor had no choice but to stamp his feet and stand aside.
"Okay, okay, you two, don't talk about this now." Seeing that there seemed to be a bit of a quarrel between Ghalib and Victor, Farasi quickly stood up to ease the atmosphere for them: "Teacher Ghalib, Do you know how many fragments there are of God? The demigod lich said that he had been looking for them for a long time and found four fragments. If we can find the others first..."
"There are only four pieces in total." Ghalib's voice stopped Farasi's words. The latter closed her mouth in embarrassment, and at the same time, a very ominous premonition surged in her heart.
"There are only four pieces. Doesn't that mean that the demigod lich will soon be able to find a way to ignite the divine fire." Victor, who was standing aside, couldn't help but change his face when he heard what Ghalib said. Stand up and ask, "How much time do we have before he succeeds in doing this."
"I don't know." Ghalib shook his head and said: "I don't know how many pieces there are, and neither does Catherine. She just inferred from the number of four students mentioned by the demigod lich. It is said that the The fallen god mentioned this matter in the oracle, but I believe you all know that it is impossible for a demigod lich to say such an important thing casually."
"Ahem, cough." Astarot's series of coughs interrupted the pessimistic mood of Ryan and others. Then Astarot, who saw everyone focusing on him, said, "I think, You are really too pessimistic. Do you know how long it takes for a mortal to become a legend, a realm, and then a demigod step by step? I can tell you that the shortest time we Thor demons have ever recorded has exceeded ten thousand years."
"Ten thousand years, that's such a long time, but from the time the first demigod appeared to now, there are at least hundreds of thousands of them. Has any of these demigods ignited the divine fire and become a true god?" Tallot said solemnly: "I tell you, no, not one."
"But, you once said that one successfully ignited..." Ryan shook his head and retorted,
"Oh, that can only be counted as half." Astarot shrugged his shoulders and replied quickly: "Even if he lit the divine fire, he was also attacked by many demigods and eventually fell, so whether he is truly There are two completely different opinions about the god of God. One is that he just goes further on the steps of demigods than others, because after possessing the godhead, even if the godhead is zero, it is enough to crush all the demigods. That is The supreme privilege of the gods, but the other believes that it takes time to ignite the divine fire and then form the godhead, and that guy was unlucky, he died before he could form his own godhead."
"Okay, no matter what the situation is, you can tell us one very important thing, that is, even if you become a demigod, even if you know how to take the next step, you can't easily reach your destination in three days and two nights. Sir, everything you said to Ghalib was told to you by Catherine, and you can guarantee that she is not deceiving you, or that the demigod lich is deceiving her at all."
