Farming in a Parallel World and Becoming a God
Chapter 2277 - 1025: Ghoul King (Part 2)
But he merely extended one finger, rendering them utterly motionless, kneeling before the throne.
Crack!
The Ghoul King ripped the strongest horn off the Super Skeleton Minotaur’s skull with sheer force and began chewing it, as if savoring a delicious treat.
"Undead! Slaughter! Plunder! Is this the path?" the Ghoul King commented as he ate.
It clearly wasn’t mere gluttony, but rather a precise method of analysis.
He was deified through gluttony, and his greatest ability naturally lay in devouring.
"This undead power originates from that bitch Chiaranlisha, but it is heavily cloaked in diffused power of revenge, certainly not hers personally, its core concept is wrong, leaning more towards undeath, deliberately suppressing the power of revenge.
I heard that in the Material Plane, a defiler of Chiaranlisha has emerged, massively stealing her power, further wounding her and leaving her power weakened to an extreme.
This power of slaughter comes from the God of Murder Bal, and the power of plunder from the Plunderer Karazgos.
They all belong to the Toril Plane, within the Pantheon of Faerun.
This defiler hails from the Felen Continent of the Toril Material Plane."
As the Ghoul King continued savoring, he deciphered more information from it.
Even the widely experienced Corpse King was left in awe.
He really couldn’t associate analyzing the origin of power with eating, and the level of detail far exceeded his imagination.
Not only did he differentiate the nature of various powers, he even deduced their roots and inferred the origin of that divine power presence.
What was displayed here wasn’t merely an issue of ability but involved a vast theological system.
The Ghoul King had at least previously encountered the divine powers of the God of Murder Bal and the Plunderer Karazgos to recognize them.
In the Multiverse, there is only one Bottomless Abyss, but countless Material Planes, which means there are also countless True Gods, with many divine positions overlapping, which is not something rare.
There are also instances of one god having multiple aspects, appearing in different forms on different Material Planes.
Once the Ghoul King had almost completed his analysis, the Corpse King went on to elaborate on the circumstances of the Plains of Bone: "The other side not only holds vast Divine Nature Force, his use of strategy and tactics is also something I’ve never seen before in my life.
The four of us were toyed with by him, and he rose in the cracks in a very short time, now he has unified the territories of Giant Bones and Dragon Bones.
He incited the Burning Flames Queen to seek revenge on me, and if, as Your Majesty says, his divine power also harbors the Power of Revenge, then the Burning Flames Queen’s mad thirst for revenge is likely not a coincidence, but an inevitability.
If not handled carefully, it could repeat the catastrophe of the Belly of Death in the Bone Plane."
The Belly of Death, Sannatos, is the 333rd layer of the Bottomless Abyss, the realm of the Undead Monarch Okas, once under the control of the Undead Goddess of Revenge Chiaranlisha.
From start to finish, the Corpse King never mentioned the name of the Undead Monarch Okas, but he never strayed away from him.
Although the Ghoul King now swears allegiance to the Jackalweres King, as his creator, he cannot avoid Okas, the strongest controller of undead power in the Bottomless Abyss.
And when it involves the Undead Goddess of Revenge, even if it’s a defiler, it’s not merely the contest over the Plains of Bone, but also a long-standing hatred between both parties.
The Ghoul King clearly heard the implied meaning in the Corpse King’s words, and his eyes flickered frequently with light.
He hasn’t returned to the embrace of the Undead Monarch Okas not because of loyalty to Jackalweres King Yenogu, but because the other side has never contacted him.
No divine retribution for betrayal was imposed, nor was there a demand to return.
This left Doreisan unable to ponder the true intentions of the Undead Monarch, while the threat he faced from the Jackalweres King was real, who coveted his ravenous divine position for years, and if given the chance, would undoubtedly provoke a new divine war.
This is not something he can bear alone.
If he were to seize part of the Undead Goddess of Revenge’s power, could he use it to please the Undead Emperor and return to his fold, assisting him in fighting the Jackalweres King?
"If Your Majesty is willing to send troops, I will provide full support, not only limited to the war against the Defiler, but also against the Jackalweres King," the Corpse King adeptly played the game of rhetoric.
It was no longer about the Ghoul King sending troops to relieve him, but about assisting the Ghoul King in initiating the war of unification over the Plains of Bone.
Doreisan said meaningfully: "Given the value of the information you sent, today, as you wish, I will relieve your besieged situation, and I hope your future actions will be as you said, otherwise, I won’t hesitate to make your territory a part of the White Kingdom."
The Ghoul King’s words undoubtedly told the Corpse King that he was well aware of his schemes, and there were simply greater interests at the moment, thus not pursuing them too far.
"Your Majesty, wise as always, I will exert all my strength to hold back the Burning Flame Army of the Burning Flames Queen, creating an opportunity for Your Majesty to strike.
As long as she is severely wounded, even if the other side is a Divine Power Presence, just Giant Bones and Dragon Bones alone can’t withstand our combined forces, and the Plains of Bone will be ours in no time," the Corpse King continued to paint grand prospects for the Ghoul King.
