There is no doubt that the fierce battle between the two chosen goddesses of magic and a large number of creatures from the shadow plane completely broke the silence of the border town of Tifantun.
Whether it is the dazzling light produced by the evocation magic or the huge energy bursting out when the silver fire explodes, it can dispel the ubiquitous darkness to a certain extent.
Many people who were still alive in the city rushed out of their hiding houses and swarmed out of the city with the help of these bright lights.
Many of them were knocked down and killed by those shadow creatures during their escape, and then became one of them.
But most of them managed to rush out and were received and protected by the Cormyr Kingdom army waiting outside.
Of course, spies like the Zhentarim and those affiliated with the City of Shades are not so lucky.
The senior leaders of the Harper Alliance, who were also left outside, were obviously able to identify them quickly.
So these guys were caught without exception and were waiting for Graia to come out before dealing with them.
However, the female officer in charge of managing the army felt that with the ruthless behavior shown by His Royal Highness in countering the rebellion, the possibility of the other party surviving was basically zero.
Because although he is not keen on or addicted to killing, he will even generously forgive ordinary soldiers and civilians who are loyal to the nobles, allowing them to join the army and become his subordinates, but when dealing with the nobles and their die-hard loyalists who are the culprits,
But he never shows mercy.
Sometimes the entire castle, from the owner to the servants, and even the hounds, would be killed together, truly eradicating the roots.
No amount of pleading could make the expression on the Prince of Darkness' face change at all.
It is this kind of heartfelt indifference and contempt for life that makes many young women in the army, including female officers, have a crazy obsession with Greya, feeling that his every move is full of indescribable emotions.
charm.
Obviously, this is mainly due to the impact of the super high charm attribute.
Moreover, these "love-minded" women simply do not understand that the nature of Graya's dark power means that its camp must be evil from the moment of its birth.
The kind-hearted side of human nature, such as sympathy, tolerance, forgiveness, care, admiration, sadness, guilt, etc., is basically almost non-existent.
This is why he can completely wipe out hundreds of noble families from the Kingdom of Cormyr without any psychological barriers.
If a woman expresses her love to him, there is a high probability that she will be used as a pawn until she dies.
As for the plot of "the overbearing president falls in love with me", it simply cannot exist in reality.
Because all men with a strong desire to control are basically extremely selfish, and in more serious cases, they may even regard others as their slaves, pets, or even objects.
In their eyes, concepts such as "love" and "equality" do not exist at all.
The so-called wives, girlfriends, and lovers are, at best, just nannies to serve one's daily life, and tools to vent one's desires when needed.
This is why they are always angry when the other half behaves not in line with their expectations, and they desire to completely control everything from mental to physical.
If any woman wants to be with such a man, she is basically either crazy or mentally abnormal. She may also be a bit masochistic and like to be constantly tortured or even beaten.
Fortunately, Grea has not yet shown a strong desire for control, nor does he have any feelings or interest in the opposite sex. He is currently concentrating on moving along the labyrinth-like sewers beneath the city of Tifantun.
He could vaguely feel that something not far ahead was constantly releasing a pulse wave to attract him.
And you can still vaguely hear whispers in your ears.
"Come...come here...
The original power of this world is looking for its master...
And you, great prince, have been chosen...
Open your mind and embrace the great darkness and nothingness...
Because this is your destined future..."
As the distance got closer, Grea could already feel the location of that thing, and at the same time, the whispers became clearer and clearer, and she could vaguely hear that it was a slightly hoarse woman's voice.
But he didn't believe a single word of the so-called "selection" and "fate" mentioned in the voice. He was simply interested in the dark power surrounding the city of Tifantun.
After all, it is the instinct of all living things to transcend oneself and become stronger.
Especially after receiving the energy sphere of the dark dimension from his father, the prince of darkness was extremely eager to obtain a source of power that also belonged to him.
As for those shadowy creatures wandering in the darkness, Grea does not need to engage in fierce battles with them like Elminster and Storm Silverhand. Just a look can make them become servants who surrender to her.
Precisely because he controlled a large number of shadow plane creatures, he was able to reach his destination directly as if he had opened the entire map.
After passing through the last few black barriers like curtains, the cube placed on the cylindrical stone platform finally appeared in sight.
At this moment, this device exuding the power of darkness and nothingness is constantly repeating the process of decomposition and reorganization at an unimaginable speed. A large number of smaller cubes are rapidly changing positions inside. It is it that forcibly removes Tiffany from the world.
The material plane is pulled into the shadow plane.
In other words, this thing is the channel connecting the material plane and the shadow plane.
Standing next to her was a woman wearing a black robe and a black veil covering her face.
When she saw Greya, her eyes suddenly revealed a strange light, and she immediately put one hand on her chest and bowed deeply.
"Ah! You are finally here, your noble Prince of Darkness."
"Are you the one who whispered in my ear?"
Greia looked at the other party with great interest, and there was no trace of nervousness on his calm face, nor was he angry at the massacre of the residents of Tifantun City by the shadow creatures.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Yes, I have been waiting for you here for a long time."
The corners of the woman's mouth under the black veil were slightly raised, and she stretched out a finger to gently touch the cube floating on the stone platform.
moment!
The violent activities of decomposition and reorganization a second ago have completely subsided and turned into a seemingly solid whole.
I saw her holding this artifact in both hands, kneeling in front of Greya, and began to sing a poem praising darkness and loss in a very ancient language.
As a god-like power, Graya was born with the ability to understand any language, so he immediately recognized that it was the language created by the first intelligent race born on the planet Toril.
Its history of existence is even longer than those of the creator races, and even the Aboleth, which claims to know all the past, can only be regarded as a latecomer compared to it.
These lost poems were created by a tribe of this race that believed in darkness. They were also the first mortal believers of Shar, the goddess of night.
"So you are the messenger of Shar, the goddess of the night?"
After figuring out the other party's identity, Graya's black eyes suddenly became like black jade, and even the whites of the eyes were swallowed up by the black pupils, which looked particularly scary.
The woman nodded without thinking: "Yes, I am the servant of the great Nightsinger. All of this is specially set up by the goddess for you."
"Then what is this cube that exudes dark power?" The Prince of Darkness asked calmly.
"It is a powerful artifact, containing fragments of the darkness and nothingness of creation, and a generous and precious gift.
As long as you own it, you can permanently maintain a link with the Shadow Plane, draw almost unlimited power from it, and gain control over the Shadow Weave like a goddess.
In addition, it also stores all related taboo knowledge including [Dark Words].
Most importantly, it helps you become purer and closer to the essence of darkness and nothingness."
The woman did not hide anything and simply told everything she knew.
Because she knew how much Shar valued the young prince in front of her, and her heartfelt love could even be expressed beyond words.
This was the first time in the thousands of years she had known.
However, Grea did not rush to take over the cube, but felt the energy properties contained in it at close range and continued to test: "What's the price?
What price do I need to pay?
My father once told me that there is no love without reason in the world, let alone hate without reason.
Anything that seems free has a price tag on it.
I don’t think an evil goddess like Shar would be so kind as to provide such a powerful artifact for free.”
"Are you suspecting there might be some trap hidden in it?"
The woman raised her head and stared into the eyes of the Prince of Darkness, her whole body shaking slightly uncontrollably because of anger.
She simply couldn't believe that the goddess gave such a generous gift, only to be rewarded with doubt and suspicion.
But before she could refute, she suddenly felt a sharp pain coming from her chest.
He lowered his head and saw that a sharp sword wrapped in ink had penetrated his chest.
The black liquid energy erodes the body and soul at an extremely fast speed, making it impossible to make any sound anymore.
The veil on his face also fell off, revealing a beautiful and horrified face. He didn't understand why the prince of darkness wanted to kill him without any warning.
