Chapter 221: The True Mother Goddess Appears
「I……」
Li Er couldn't hold back anymore.
He looked at Big Boss, truly unable to understand how this demigod of the Abyss could come up with such a heaven-defying plan.
Isn't the prestige of you demigods supposed to be very high?
Never mind, no matter what, this order, he truly could not carry out.
No matter what the Furious Father God says, he will not do it.
「Li Er, this is the final test. Originally I planned that after you finished this matter, I would make you my Divine Chosen Candidate. 」Big Boss stood with hands behind his back, heartbroken and indignant: 「Unfortunately, you did not pass this test. 」
「What! 」Hearing these words, Li Er was completely stunned.
Divine Chosen? The Furious Father God actually wants to choose me as the Divine Chosen? A true Divine Chosen Candidate!
As a member of the Genius Club, Li Er knew too well what becoming the Divine Chosen meant.
You must know, Kadan founded the Genius Club for the purpose of using all the elites' power to elevate him as the Divine Chosen.
When that day comes, all these club members will also ascend to heaven with their chickens and dogs.
Of course, the deity Kadan aimed at was not the seven gods of the Abyss, but the five major gods of the Tianming Continent.
And Kadan did not understand the legends of the Divine Chosen and the gods particularly well either.
It was merely a wishful thought.
But no matter what, after learning of this plan, an inescapable thought surfaced in Li Er's mind—
How can kings, lords, generals, and ministers be born to their kind?
Kadan can do it, why can't I, Li Er?
Therefore, he originally planned to pretend to follow by Kadan's side, secretly cultivate his own force, and when the timing was mature, carry out the final backstab.
And now, he did not need to backstab anymore.
The opportunity to become a Divine Chosen Candidate was right in front of him!
Thump, thump…
His heart pounded wildly, his blood boiled, the surge of adrenaline made his hands go numb.
The enormous temptation drew out all the greed of this man.
And the experience of rising step by step and smooth sailing since entering this Secret Realm made him believe Big Boss's words without doubt.
He no longer thought about the rationality of these things.
He only felt that he was extremely lucky.
He was the person chosen by fate.
「Alright, you go. Since you are unwilling to carry out this plan, I won't force you either. 」Big Boss waved his hand: 「Listen well to the words of the Furious Divine General, and build this Camp well. 」
Saying this, he turned around, leaving only a desolate back view for Li Er.
The next moment.
Only heard a bang, Li Er knelt down on the ground without hesitation: 「Father God's Crown, Your Majesty, I, Li Er, am willing to obey your command! 」
「This matter, I will do it! 」
「Forget it. 」Big Boss waved his hand: 「I thought about it, things like Mouse Traps are still too difficult, and also harmful to your body. 」
「What words, what words are these! 」Li Er stood up indignantly: 「A mere Mouse Trap, can it stump me, Li Er? 」
「Me, Li Er, since ancient times, what I like most is Mouse Traps! My groove is not an ordinary groove, but an indestructible groove! Not to mention one Mouse Trap, even two, three, four, are no problem! 」
「Did not expect you to actually have such resolve! 」Big Boss was greatly shocked.
「For the great cause of Father God's Crown, I, Li Er, am willing to give everything! 」Li Er was extremely generous.
「Since you are so determined, then fine…」Big Boss nodded, and took out several Poison Spikes, Corrosive Poison, High Explosives and such, placing them in front of Li Er: 「You use all of these too. 」
The generosity on Li Er's face instantly petrified. He looked at one item more terrifying than the next, even forgetting to swallow his saliva.
「How, you are unwilling? 」Big Boss sighed: 「Alas, then there's no way, this old man will just have to…」
「Willing, I am too willing! 」Li Er roared, both like expressing determination and like cheering himself up, grabbed a ball full of iron spikes, and lay down on the ground:
「Father God's Crown, let you see my determination now! 」
Sharp iron spikes pierced into his body, Li Er cried tears streaming down, his teeth almost shattered.
But even so, he still endured, not uttering a single miserable cry!
Next was the second item, the third item…
In a short while, he stuffed all the Relics Big Boss prepared into himself.
And his whole body lay exhausted on the ground, let alone walking, even wriggling was difficult.
…
That night, the big shots of Hengshui Camp did not sleep well.
Li Er, because the pain was amplified by Big Boss by 70 times, simply could not fall asleep.
Those painkilling medicines had no effect at all.
Li Er clenched his fist, lay on the bed in humiliation, gritted his teeth, and panted incessantly.
In his mind, Big Boss's appearance surfaced.
「It's just a bit of pain, I can endure it!】
【I will become the Divine Chosen, I want revenge, I want revenge!】
【All of this is your fault, Big Boss, all your fault. If not for your appearance stealing the spotlight that belonged to me, how could I resort to risky moves and suffer such humiliation and pain!】
【Big Boss, you wait for me. After I become the Divine Chosen, I will definitely make you taste my pain too! You bastard!】
【And Full Moon Queen, Yenifer, Latanaya… all your women, I will torture them to death!】
【I am the Divine Chosen, I am the Divine Chosen!】
"I, Li Er, am the Divine Chosen of Wrath!!!"
The other side.
The Wrath Father God Sir stood before the mirror, dressing up, looking at herself striking a pose as Little Nan Liang, and felt something was off somehow.
The battle robe Karenina had picked for her was of an extremely novel style.
Apart from covering her face, there wasn't a single piece of clothing on her entire body.
As Karenina put it, she had finally managed to produce such a charming body, so how could she hide it with clothes? Cover it with clothes, and wouldn't that fail to show off her invincible charm! As for why her face was veiled, that was naturally because she feared the Wrath Father God Sir would be shy from exposure. (Actually, it was because Karenina thought the Wrath Father God Sir's face still had some charm, so she blocked this only charming part.) "Heterosexual aesthetics are truly terrifying." The Wrath Father God Sir looked at herself in the mirror, feeling her rationality was about to shatter completely.
"Sigh, indeed my path is the path of evolution. Li Er, rest assured, I will definitely bend you toward the correct direction, make you understand what a real man needs!"
As she spoke, the Wrath Father God Sir let out a "jie jie jie" sound.
She only felt time passing so slowly; why hadn't dawn arrived yet?
Her Reversal Whip was yearning for an adventure! And on the other side.
Tonight, Li Cheng also couldn't really fall asleep.
Because the Lilith Cat he was hugging as a pillow kept trembling, trembling non-stop.
"I say... what exactly are you doing? Why aren't you sleeping in the middle of the night?"
"Pff, pff pff..." Lilith's cat mouth simply couldn't hold it in: "If the Wrath Father God Sir gets her Reversal Whip snapped by a mouse trap..."
"She'll become the shame of the Seven God Generals!"
"Hahaha, I'm too looking forward to tomorrow's events, meow!" — One night, nothing more to say.
The next day,
Morning.
Li Cheng woke from sleep, rubbed his head of red hair, feeling quite fatigued.
This Demigod power isn't so easy to control.
His body, in order to be able to use this power, was extracting potential every minute, every second.
Going on like this, never mind the Wrath Father God Sir taking this power back later.
Even if he doesn't take it back, Li Cheng can last 48 hours at most.
"Sigh, I'm starting to miss the City of Deception and the Regeneration Witch." He sighed slightly sorrowfully: "That kind of Demigod power was the Demigod power belonging to me, completely compatible, wouldn't affect the body."
"Too bad the Experience Card's experience time was too short."
"If only I could experience it once more, that would be great."
Li Cheng's sorrow didn't last long; he knew very well that today he had serious business to do.
First day as the Wrath Father God Sir, naturally he had to be a bit more solemn and serious.
After all, he still had to receive the True Mother Goddess.
Dressed neatly, Li Cheng arrived at the reception room, and the herald also arrived outside the door.
"Father God's Crown His Majesty, Prime Minister Rui Yi has arrived."
Prime Minister Rui Yi?
Li Cheng searched for this NPC's information in his mind.
Rui Narets, the Wrath Father God Sir's most trusted subordinate, head of the Seven God Generals, the general most skilled at commanding large army corps operations in the entire Wrath Father God Domain.
Commanded multiple Abyss invasions of the Tianming Continent, nearly destroying one-third of the Tianming Continent's territory.
If the Wrath Father God Sir is the banner and supreme martial force, then this person is the Commander and actual policy designer.
The Wrath Father God Sir's trust in him has even reached the level of "acting at his own discretion."
And the intel Li Cheng got from Dian Huo was that this guy was currently at the Southwest Front, commanding army corps in battle.
Yet unexpectedly, he came here.
And the Wrath Father God Sir didn't even know.
"Heh, saw through the winning chance in the war situation, so rushed here directly to plan a surprise attack... truly a not-so-easy character to deal with..."
The corner of Li Cheng's mouth curled up.
Since he's the Wrath Father God Sir's wing, the harder to deal with, the faster he must be eliminated.
On one hand, this is to weaken the Wrath force.
On the other hand, it's also to complete Main Quest 2 — obtain a higher position. As long as all demons with positions higher than his own die, then he, Li Cheng, would be the demon with the highest position, right?
Perfect logic!
"Mm, let him in."
Li Cheng said, sitting sprawled on the Main Seat.
Minutes later, this Prime Minister of the Wrath Father God Domain entered the room.
Upon entering, he knelt on one knee, spoke with utmost devotion: "Father God's Crown His Majesty above, please forgive my overstepping. I left the front line this time because..."
"Alright, get up."
Li Cheng waved his hand: "I know. You smelled the scent of a war opportunity. The enemy main force is tied down; if we strike from the north side all the way through, we can strike straight at the heart, end the battle in one go, right?"
"Minister Rui Yi, actually, even if you didn't come, I would have transferred you over anyway."
"Father God's Crown His Majesty..."
Rui Narets stared straight at Li Cheng, somewhat unable to believe it.
What situation, how did Father God Adult become smart?
Before, didn't I always have to explain for half a day before he could understand these military tactics and marching?
No, even saying that is flattering him.
The correct way to put it: this guy fundamentally doesn't understand military tactics, so he's unwilling to listen, only says "Minister Rui Yi decides, I strongly support."
The Wrath Father God Sir is such a Monarch; he knows his own talent is insufficient, so he delegates all power, letting specialists do specialist work.
As for betrayal, Wrath had never even considered it.
After all, in all the world, there was no longer any lord who gave more than he did.
At this moment, seeing the Wrath Father God suddenly voice his own thoughts, Rui Narets felt doubtful in his heart, yet was also overjoyed.
Ah, the foolish lord has suddenly had an epiphany.
Is there anything happier than this? "Your Majesty, I've said it before — you actually have the talent to be an excellent commander, it's just been concealed by your talents in other areas."
Rui placed his hand on his chest and praised comfortingly.
"Hahaha, good good, I've also dabbled a little, dabbled a little — still far behind you, Minister Rui!"
Li Cheng engaged in mutual flattery, and casually planted two children inside Rui's body as well.
Of course, the technique used was the same as with his lord — both were painless versions, undetectable.
"Then, since Minister Rui has come, you've naturally brought your Guard of Honor too?" Li Cheng asked again.
"Of course. To guarantee this surprise attack succeeds, I've brought all the elites from the Southwest Front." Rui answered respectfully.
"Oh? Put that way, isn't the Southwest Front empty then?"
"Your Majesty, rest assured." Rui explained: "Although I took the elites, the other majority of the Demon Race are still there, and I've had them split into three squads taking turns harassing the Land of Fire, creating the illusion that the main force is still there."
"During the strategic stalemate phase, Dian Huo won't dare launch an all-out attack rashly — at least not for a short time."
"As long as the North Front fights fast enough, we can end the combat before she reacts!"
Rui spoke, revealing a confident smile.
Since the Wrath Father God gave him the North Front deployment map some time ago, he had researched this Flash Strike tactic day and night.
Must take it down!
And Li Cheng also revealed a satisfied smile.
Yes, following your tactic, it really can be taken down.
But you never dreamed, even in your dreams, that your boss — me — is actually a mole.
This Wrath Father God Domain's southwest front, I'll reluctantly accept it.
"Minister Rui, well done, well done indeed!"
Li Cheng patted his shoulder caringly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the praise!"
Rui was elated.
Just then, the herald arrived at the door once more: "Father God Sir, the True Mother God Sir has arrived."
"Oh? The True Mother God Sir has come too?" Rui's gaze trembled — clearly he didn't know this intelligence.
"Oh?" Li Cheng's eyes narrowed: "Heh, noted. You may withdraw."
Immediately after, he unhurriedly sat down, holding the red tea, gesturing for Prime Minister Rui to sit as well.
Rui looked at Li Cheng doubtfully: "Father God Sir, aren't we going to welcome the True Mother God Sir?"
"Heh, she comes if she comes — what's there to welcome?"
"Doing it this way is somewhat improper." Rui frowned: "The True Mother God Sir is, after all, the darling of the Abyss Will — you offending her like this..."
Offending her is the Wrath Father God's business — what does it have to do with me, Li Cheng? Li Cheng sneered, his gaze sweeping over Rui: "My Prime Minister, there's one thing you've gotten wrong."
"Struggling for survival through conflict — endless compromise only brings increasingly severe oppression."
"All these years, we've been far too indulgent toward the True Mother God, making us like dogs, trailing behind her wagging our tails."
"Now, this situation needs to change."
Speaking, Li Cheng overturned the tea onto the table.
The tea rose up.
Prime Minister Rui looked at Li Cheng, only feeling his lord had changed.
The current him — sharp-edged in all directions, making no effort to conceal his ambition.
'I see. So you're finally starting your great cause of conquest?'
'This battle between Dian Huo and Full Moon Academy is your first step in taking the Abyss.'
"Heh." Rui's eyes flickered, he cupped his fist toward Li Cheng: "Father God Crown Your Majesty, the sleeping lion has finally opened its eyes named ambition."
"Where your gaze points, I already know it all."
"I, Rui, guarantee here that I will become your sharp sword, leveling the firmament for you!"
He spoke with stirring passion, heroic and impassioned.
Li Cheng got goosebumps all over listening.
This Prime Minister — he's pretty chuunibyou.
What leveling the firmament — Li Cheng has no intention of doing that for the Wrath Father God.
What he wants to do is find a pretext to "justifiably" provoke the True Mother God, so the True Mother God will come deal with the Wrath Father God instead.
If the Wrath Father God asks about it later.
Li Cheng will just say he did it for his reputation and prestige.
Simply perfect.
Just then, a yin-yang sarcastic voice rang out from outside the tent: "Yo, how come I don't see my little Wrath doggy coming out to welcome me today?"
"Was the big bone Master I gave you last time not enough to eat?"
"Or should I swap your dog collar for a new one, so you can bark a few more times?"
Such strong hostility... Li Cheng looked toward the door.
Only to see a royal sister wearing a purple long robe, purple long hair to her waist, wearing gold-rimmed glasses walk in.
Her gaze swept over the Attendant and Rui, finally settling on Li Cheng's face, revealing a displeased smile.
"Heh heh, angry little puppy, not coming out to welcome me is one thing, but now that Master I've come in, you don't plan to welcome me?"
"Who are you calling a dog?"
Big Boss looked at her coldly, without a trace of Chan Shou or fear.
He was calculating whether to also plant two children in the True Mother Goddess's belly.
But he discovered that this fellow's Dragon's Rank was actually higher than the Angry Father God's.
He couldn't cast spells invisibly, so he gave up.
"I say you're a dog." The True Mother Goddess walked In Front of Big Boss, smiling Mockingly: "Any problem?"
She was really angry.
Although she had come to the Angry Father God's Territory herself just to see him almost win, so she could borrow his hand to brush up merit and pluck the peach.
But she was willing to pluck Angry's merit, actually giving him face; otherwise, why wouldn't she go pluck some other Demigod's merit? This Angry Father God, if he wasn't grateful, fine.
He actually dared to lose his temper at his Own Body?
Heh heh, a dog Wagging Tail and Begging for Pity, also qualified to lose his temper at his Own Body?
The True Mother Goddess made up her mind; this time she would give him a Good Looking.
If the Angry Father God didn't apologize properly, from now on she would never pay attention to this idiot again.
Thinking this, she narrowed her eyes, coldly laughing and Repeating what she had Just Now said: "I say you, Angry Father God, are a dog; may I ask, do you have any opinions?"
Slash—with a sound.
The Guard of Honor surged into the Command Room, countless blades drawn, for a moment Sword Drawn.
The True Mother Goddess looked at Big Boss smilingly: "Heh heh, ayo, my dog has raised a litter of little puppies."
"Heh heh, you order them to attack, attack and take me down!"
"Hahaha, come on, I'll just stand here, let your Subordinates take me down!"
"……"
Big Boss looked at the True Mother Goddess, Expressionless.
Unbelievable, there was actually someone in this world who would make such an excessive Requirement…
Thus, he cleared his throat: "Everyone heard, this is the True Mother Goddess's own Requirement!"
"Attack for me, take her down!"
