When he was searching for the "Demon of Hell", he broke into the underground temple of the God of Death. As a result, he accidentally activated the "Artificial God of Death" in the secret chambers of the priests' coffins.
Later, after Mystra's "Rose Cross" intervened in the temple investigation, the artificial death god disappeared without a trace.
Then, because of the artificial Death, the "Land of the Sleeper", which contains countless undead creatures, was merged with the "Place of the Punisher", the demiplane of the God of Death, trapping "Wang Ningwei" and "Aiswig". By the way, Zhao Xu got the "Death Godhead Fragment".
This was also the only time he consumed the Resurrection Stone.
Zhao Xu had vaguely understood that the man-made Death God never woke up from his previous life until the end.
Therefore, the Wild Death Land, a place where countless people on earth died, has never seen a trace of it.
But this time, under the influence of various conditions and with the addition of a variable like him, everything is different.
Fulfilling divine duties can enhance divine power just like expanding believers. This is why the God of War has pushed the Orc Empire to fight for thousands of years.
Including the goddess of magic, Sisylvina. Whether the mages believe in her is another matter. But once these mages are lost, the scale of the goddess's divine power will definitely be weakened a lot.
Therefore, in the wild death land, the moment countless people died, Zhao Xu could become the god of death.
The fragments of the godhead are the key to this.
So it can also turn this "artificial god of death" into a real god of death.
At this moment, Zhao Xu finally realized that something was seriously wrong.
The hole he dug would probably bury him, and even the innocent civilians in the entire wilderness of death.
Zhao Xu's expression changed slightly in an instant.
After Lux left his body, she merged with Zheng Xinyun.
During this process, out of concern for Lux, Zhao Xu only glanced at the status reported by them from the daily intelligence summary.
But now the "artificial god of death" who has never been seen before has arrived in the wilderness of death and came directly to block the door.
Although it is not known whether it is targeting the "Human Paradise", a former weapon of death, or him, the former owner of the godhead fragment.
But no matter what, it means that Zheng Xinyun is in great danger at this time.
"There's no point in dragging me in."
Zhao Xu looked down at the dead city below and said, "Shouldn't we face this difficult situation?"
"If it weren't for this Demon King's device, do you think you have a chance of winning?"
Humanity Heaven shook his head and said.
"Have you judged this through the 'death' that was just sown?" Zhao Xu said with a slightly tight expression, "So, you guessed that I would cause mass killings to decipher this world?"
"Life and death are eternal issues. Witnessing death makes it easy to see the loopholes in this world. You are indeed on the right track."
"At the same time, the 'city positioning technique' you just performed was really beyond my imagination. I didn't expect that Arthur and a mage could reproduce such a magical miracle that is comparable to the high elves' rituals."
"But I obviously failed." Zhao Xu was also a little disappointed.
If he hadn't pointed out the other party's identity directly, he would still have to circle around in this dream world, waiting for the other party to find the right opportunity.
"It's very simple. It's true that the amount of simulating the entire world is too large. But have you considered it? The 'teleportation' you used to switch scenes essentially left a gap for me to make up for. I only need to use it in a targeted manner. Just simulate your destination."
"I see."
Zhao Xu suddenly realized.
He thought he jumped out of the chessboard, but in fact he underestimated the devil's device, and he was still trapped in the game.
It is indeed too difficult to simulate the entire world, but simulating the area where he is looking is within the acceptable range.
From this point of view, he should have been more cautious at that time and used methods such as "quick burst" or "time stop". In this way, he might be able to reach the end of the ungenerated world before the other party could react.
"My essential idea is that you can rely on death in dreams to awaken the remaining god of death in your body and move towards true immortality." Humanity Heaven made a clear buzzing sound.
"But obviously, I still underestimated you."
"I may have had a little doubt just now, but now I am extremely sure-"
"You have no intention of becoming a real Grim Reaper."
"This makes me very curious. Countless people dream of godhood, becoming a true god, and even the God of Death is one of the most powerful divine powers, but it is still not your goal?"
Being born in the hands of the Lord Elf and then experiencing death can be said to have experienced the "humane paradise" of Arthur's entire history. It is unimaginable until this moment.
How can someone give up and become a god
In the multiverse, no matter how powerful a creature is, "becoming a god" is undoubtedly the broadest shortcut and final path.
"I'm more cautious about things I haven't figured out yet."
Zhao Xu shook his head and said.
The previous God of Slaughter, Edmund, who was closest to the God of Death, finally fell. It is still unclear.
The god of death is torn into pieces, and each family is holding a part of it. Which chess player behind the scenes can turn Arthur upside down.
Therefore, Zhao Xu has always regarded the "Death God's Fragment" as a "way out", not the only way.
He didn't even see the chips of each company clearly, so he put all his wealth into battle. Zhao Xu, who was not yet at the end of his rope, naturally didn't make a choice.
What's more, the death of the God of Death is the final destination. This concept lingers in his mind for no reason.
"The only way now is that you have to stop this artificial death god from coming." Humanity Paradise said.
"Since you don't want it, then I'll return first, lest these virtual breaths of death really introduce it in advance."
Speaking of the human paradise, he waved his pen, and in an instant, the timeline of the earth was pushed backwards towards the original.
The "Time Rewind Talisman" in Zhao Xu's hand also inspired a mysterious light, sweeping across the world and illuminating every corner of the retina.
"Sorry, I can borrow the power of your time-traveling talisman, otherwise it will be quite difficult for me to reverse the world line."
In the blink of an eye, Zhao Xu saw that the world below had returned to its original vitality.
The setting sun, which was about to set in the west, seemed to be pushed back artificially on the skyline, rising to noon again, and then back to the time when the scorching sun was rising.
"If you can control this world, wouldn't it mean that we would have an advantage when fighting?" Zhao Xu was surprised.
"No matter how you change the chessboard, the chess pieces will still be the original chess pieces. This is just a devil's device in the dream world, not an omnipotent wish world. Therefore, it cannot change the situation of a single entity, so this dream has nothing to do with you."
"Even if I want you to die, I can only make you willing to commit suicide. This is also the limitation of the Demon King's device. After capturing those targets who are trapped in dreams, many smart people want to escape from it, so they directly enter the 'dream world' 'suicide."
"Unexpectedly, this will make your body think it is really dead, leading to the arrival of real death."
"Yeah." Zhao Xu nodded.
Since the humane paradise requires all the effort to push back the time, it means that a quiet environment is needed next.
"Do you have any plans for me to cooperate with next?" Zhao Xu asked.
"That's right."
At this time, the human paradise made a profound sound.
"I want you to rebuild me."
"Otherwise, you will be manipulated?" Zhao Xu reacted instantly.
"Yes, the current me is indeed an 'ancient weapon' and it is true that I am in heaven, but even though the 'God of Death' has disappeared for many centuries, I still can't change the indelible mark he left on me."
"As the most direct successor of the God of Death, the Artificial God of Death will naturally have dominance over me the moment he encounters me. With my new power, I can still control the actions of these lichs. When the Artificial God of Death gets me , can you imagine how exaggerated this is?"
"Not to mention, it will soon possess these immeasurable undead creatures under the wild dead land."
After hearing this, Zhao Xu couldn't help but complain.
"I shouldn't have taken you out in the first place. Is it too late to return it now?"
Little did they know that the human world and heaven also gave out a wry smile, "Do you think that's what I thought?"
"This far larger wave of undead has awakened the artificial god of death and made him realize that I exist deep underground in the wilderness of death. With the help of those two old cripples who cannot protect themselves, there is no way I can continue to delay, so I Only then did I see an opportunity and defect to you."
Only at this moment did Zhao Xu understand.
There is indeed no love without reason in the world.
The wave of undead, attracting the artificial god of death, and forcing the human paradise to come out of the mountain, these are really happening one after another.
In this way, the wave of undead spewing out from the ground is inseparable from this human paradise.
"So don't think that I am very relaxed. Erasing the mark of the God of Death will also devastate my consciousness. It will probably take thousands of years for me to wake up."
"Then what are you pursuing?" Zhao Xu asked back, isn't the other party asking for trouble
"You humans are the only ones who have pursuits, but not the intelligence of our artifacts?" Humanity Heaven said calmly, "If I fall into the hands of the artificial death god, I will still be destined to be a divine weapon."
"But you just had no intention of becoming a god of death, so I can trust you. Only you are willing to wipe out all the aura of death in me and give up the possibility of becoming a god from me."
"So I also beg you. When my consciousness returns, please help me transfer my soul and be reincarnated as an ordinary living being. I think in that case, a human paradise that no longer has any relationship will be more beautiful. It deserves your trust.”
"Okay, the deal is done."
Zhao Xu was also decisive, "Just tell me how to build you."
Immediately, the human heaven directly transmitted a piece of extremely profound "secret information" about the forging of artifacts passed down from the ancient gods.
"Now you have to think about it first, what face will I show in the future?" Humanity Heaven asked, "+5 beheading sword?"
"No." Zhao Xu shook his head, showing his white teeth.
"+1 eagerness/fearlessness/school/bombardment/skill/transmutation/density/sneak attack sword."
