Chapter 1790 It Just Wants a Body
Su Xiao returned to the place where they first arrived, Kiel City.
The old teleportation array suddenly lit up white light, and Su Xiao appeared out of thin air, followed by Bubuwang, Am, Baha, and Caesar. Opposite the teleportation array, behind the wooden fence window embedded in the stone wall, a large area of tree roots were intertwined and occupied a place.
Like the movement of trees, a pair of dull eyes opened from the tree roots.
"You are here." The old wizard sat in a wooden wheelchair, his voice hoarse. Around him, the roots were squirming, but he tried to push the wheelchair forward and break free from the roots. The old wizard's upper body looked like an ordinary person, but his gray hair was slightly sparse. However, his legs were cut off below the thigh.
From the uneven rags near the wound, it can be seen that the old wizard's legs were not cut by a sharp weapon, but were smashed by some long blunt weapon. The wooden wheelchair ran over the ground mechanism, and the wooden fence in front quickly decayed and broke, and the stone wall more than one meter high below was also damaged.
"Did the mission go well?" the old wizard asked with concern.
"If I'm not mistaken, you should be the [host] of the previous session." Su Xiao gestured to Am to "help", and Am immediately understood, walked behind the old wizard, and assisted him in pushing the wheelchair.
"This name is very appropriate. Yes, I am the host of the previous session. If everything goes well, Nia is the new generation of host. She is more perfect than me and more in line with [its] expectations. Even [it] has injected the blood of the ancient gods into Nia's body, making her more suitable as a container. Unfortunately, Laurent is too smart."
Su Xiao guessed a lot of information. He knew that Lin Jiu knew a lot of things, but he didn't tell him. Just trust him, right?
However, since dealing with the ancient gods was his task, Su Xiao didn't pick up Lin Jiu. Hearing that the guy had a bad premonition about the next round of the task, Su Xiao wanted to finish it quickly so that he could rush over to see the guy's excitement.
Su Xiao gradually learned everything through his own guesses, plus the content supplemented by the old wizard now. All the changes in this world come from Azathoth, the ancient god who degenerated from the concept god of a higher-level world. He was severely injured and split into two parts: consciousness and body.
Azathoth's consciousness was deposited in a human long ago. This person was named Xius Alexander. And the old wizard was named Xius Aqid.
[Guardian of the world, we are willing to bathe in your glory...] This is a sentence engraved under the sculpture of the ancient god Sothoth. It was Xius Alexander, and Xius Alexander was the ancestor of the old wizard Xius Aqid. He "believed" in Sothoth on the surface, but in fact he just wanted to paralyze Sothoth, not sincerely.
The Xius family has continued to this day and split into two branches. One branch retained the surname Xius, while the other changed it to Morn. The immortal wizard Morn Laurent is a descendant of the Xius family, although he himself did not know it.
The consciousness of Azathoth deeply affects these two families. As the "inheritors" of Azathoth's consciousness, the Xius family, although on the surface they were respectful to the ruler Sothoth, actually, they were thinking of using Sothoth and intended to profit from it.
All of Morn Laurent's actions, including gathering the dawn, Gus, and conquering the ruler Sothoth, were controlled by Azathoth's consciousness behind the scenes. Azathoth's purpose was also very simple, that is, its physical body was no longer usable, and it was ready to cultivate one by itself. And the light of hope, Nia, was the candidate it favored, giving it hope.
However, with the intervention of the defeated MVP Laurent, Nia completed her mission and died in a battle with Sothoth before Azathoth could make a move.
The whole incident, in simple terms, was that Azathoth's consciousness was separated from his body due to a serious injury. Because his body had developed animality, he had to live in a container that was both powerful and qualified to fight the ancient gods, fighting with his own body to regain control.
Or it can be said that without the protection of Azathoth's consciousness, Nia would not have grown to such an extent, and she might have been noticed by the ruler Sothoth.
After the failure of the first crusade, the ruler Sothoth lived in the alien space of Heru City. The Bone Port is not far from the headquarters of the Wizard Association. It is almost under Sothoth's nose.
Shuguang and others have been beaten by Sothoth. It is not normal to cultivate Nia under the enemy's nose. Or, someone is assisting Shuguang and others behind the scenes without their knowledge.
Didn't Shuguang think of this? No, she actually thought of it a long time ago. But she is more eager to let the ruler Sothoth die. Because of this, Gus evaluated her as paranoid.
It can be said that the white goat, Sothoth and the beastly Azathoth are in a group, and the consciousness of Azathoth represents another force. By the way, there is still the group of violators, but the group of violators does not intervene in the affairs of this world.
The heart of the Daughter of Sorrow was made by the old wizard, Seuss Archide. At that time, Seuss was controlled by Azathoth. This crystal heart was originally an emergency device, but unfortunately, it was destroyed by Su Xiao. After the crystal heart was installed, the Daughter of Sorrow would lie, which was inevitable because at that time, she had been controlled.
He Su only played the top game and never did serious tasks. Now the regular task process is obvious and has surfaced, that is, after going deep into the clues, first cooperate with the consciousness of Azathoth to deal with the group of white goats together.
The erosion of this world is the work of the White Goat and the Ruler Sothoth, and the things in the Reincarnation Paradise were robbed and the transactions were interrupted, which was also the plan of the White Goat and the Violators. So there is a basis for cooperation between Azathoth's consciousness and the hunters, it just wants to get its body back!
But who is our General Su? He thought to himself, if you get your body back, you won't be able to beat you at that time, no, it's safer to kill you first. So there was such a thing as coming to the old wizard.
For Su Xiao, who has the [Chapter of Greed], it is not a difficult problem to get rid of Azathoth's consciousness. Just pull it in and let the Butcher of Life kill it.
And just as Lin Jiu reminded before leaving Heru City, at the moment of solving the problem of Azathoth without eyes, Su Xiao encountered an assassination from the contractor, no, it should be said that the violator.
Su Xiao did not make any arrangements for this assassination. Originally, his arrangements were very cautious, and he was on guard against Azathoth without eyes everywhere, so he could solve it unexpectedly. If we assassinate the offenders and arrange for it, there might be some unexpected things.
After learning from Lin Jiu that the result of their assassination did not even cause him serious injuries, Su Xiao ignored it. If he was not seriously injured, he could recover by drinking a bottle of ancient secret medicine. There was no need to take the risk of alerting the Eyeless Azathoth.
In a huge cave, a woman with cool clothes and long light red hair was sitting under a stone wall with her head down, and her eyes gradually regained their spirit.
"That's too much, damn!" The corners of the woman's lips twitched, and her face was slightly pale.
"Meihuan, he's not dead?" A low male voice came from a man of medium build. The light around him was a little distorted, making it difficult to see his appearance.
"It's not as simple as not dying. After being hit by me, the hunter is at most... slightly injured." Meihuan, remotely locked Su Xiao, the person who issued the assassination.
"That's..."
"Yo~ You hid well. It took me a while to find you." A frivolous voice came from the cave entrance. At the same time, a figure blocked part of the sunlight from entering the cave.
