Chapter 942: Intrigue (Part 2)
After hearing his mission, Neodal's face slightly surprised appeared, and he said, "His Excellency Anubis, you were not making a mistake in the mission, right? God Lord Orosse actually asked 'you' to inform 'me' to investigate the ban?"
Neodal's words deliberately aggravated completely revealed his surprise. No wonder he was so surprised. Others may not know it very well, but he knew very well that if there were so many eyes and ears, no one could compare to Anubis. His scarab beetles were spread all over the known places of the holy ruins. As long as he was willing, even the mysterious high priests in the altar of the gods could not escape his investigation. Now such a person who was spreading in the holy ruins told him that he, a semi-imperial prisoner, would find it a little surprised and even ridiculous.
Anubis said in a deep voice: "I am not wrong, I am talking about you."
In fact, as Neodal suspected, the investigation of the ban was handed over to Anubis by the real person Yuanxu. Even the main person in charge of the troll god craftsman was Anubis. Neodal just acted as an auxiliary person. But now, despite the danger of being exposed in the future, Anubis slightly modified the order of Yuanxu and handed over to Neodal to perform. It was not because of how difficult the task was, so he wanted to find someone to share it, but because after seeing this secret temple, he began to be vigilant about Neodal and wanted to take this opportunity to find out Neodal's hidden power.
Unlike other pure-blooded gods who fall under the throne of Yuanxu Zhenren, Anubis is a truly willing refugee. Yuanxu Zhenren's situation determines his future, and he naturally does not allow other pure-blooded gods to pose a threat to Yuanxu Zhenren. Compared with the threats from outside, he attaches more importance to threats from inside, and the pure-blooded gods worthy of his attention are only Hades of the Olympus tribe and Neodal of the Asa tribe, because only they have the ability and strength to cause destructive damage to the power of Yuanxu Zhenren.
However, Hades's situation is slightly different from that of Neodal. Although Hades did not completely accept Yuanxu Zhenren like Anubis. However, because Hades's divine realm is set up in the sea of ice, it is equivalent to completely controlling his family's assets in the hands of Yuanxu Zhenren. So what he and Anubis are only a pledge of loyalty.
However, although Neodal also surrendered to the Yuanxu True Man, his divine realm was not placed in the Ice Sea. Even the power he had was unknown, and it was hard to rest assured.
Anubis did not pay too much attention to Neodal before. After all, with so many eyes inside the Asa God clan, even if Neodal's ability is great, it is impossible to hide too powerful power. But now after seeing this secret temple, his view has been completely reversed. Not to mention where Neodal got so many stone giants that were considered extinct. It is enough to be amazed that he could completely control these stone giants, not to mention that he gathered the stone giants and built such a large temple. It was done at the door of the Nine Pillar Divine Realm under the surveillance of the Asa God clan. Such a miracle can only be described as incredible.
In Anubis's opinion, since Neodal is not afraid of exposing this temple to him, it means that he is not caring about the stone giants in this temple and even the ones in his heart, it is just the most inconspicuous part of his real power. From this, Neodal's real strength will definitely not be weaker than any of the top main gods in the Holy Ruins, and even has it.
If this power was public, Anubis would not have been taken so seriously, but now this power is hidden and so perfectly hidden. Even the scarabs of Anubis did not notice it at all, and this matter is no longer a trivial matter.
Anubis was preparing to take this opportunity to find out Neodal's true strength. This was not to deal with Neodal, but just to avoid the passive situation when Neodal rebelled in the future. After all, the inheritor of the Divine Fire of the God of Conspiracy Loki is famous in the Holy Ruins. Not only the Asa Gods are concerned about it, but even other pure blood gods are wary of it. If Neodal really makes a gods come to cause another gods, then it will not only be the Asa Gods, but I am afraid that the entire Holy Ruins will be affected.
Of course, Neodal could not have known that Anubis had been thinking about him in just a while. But he could feel a hint of hostility and vigilance from Anubis' tone.
At first, Neodal believed that Anubis had discovered that he was using the essence and blood of his tribe to perform the forbidden technique. But soon he dispelled this speculation. With his understanding of Anubis, if he really found something, then Anubis would definitely do it directly without hesitation, and would not assign some inexplicable tasks in the name of the Lord of the Ice Hell like now.
However, since it was not because of the forbidden arts, Neodal couldn't think of where he offended Anubis, and he couldn't guess what the reason for Anubis doing this.
Although I was confused, Neodal did not show any abnormal expression. Instead, he said calmly: "Since that's the case, I can only do my best. However, I can't compare to Lord Anubis, so I hope I can have more time. If I get nothing in the end, please help me."
Seeing that Neodal agreed to the task he temporarily decided to modify, Anubis also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Now he thought about it. He had taken some risk just now. If Neodal insisted on not accepting the task and went to the Binghai to ask, then his intention would be exposed. Even if Yuanxu Zhenren did not punish him, his trust in him would probably be reduced a lot. After all, no one would appreciate a subordinate who changed his orders by randomly.
"You and I are in the master's seat, and it is appropriate to help each other." Since the purpose has been achieved, Anubis will naturally not cause trouble. He did not think much about Neodal's request, so he agreed. After all, the matter was his. If he failed, he would definitely take action. Now the excuse given by Neodal can just hide his true intentions.
After telling Neodal a contact location, Anubis did not stop here anymore and turned around and left. When he reached the exit, he turned around and reminded him in a more emphasis: "Since His Excellency Neodal said that he should do his best, he must do his best."
After saying that, he disappeared at the entrance.
"Try your best?" It would be fine if Anubis didn't say the last sentence. I'm afraid that Neodal would never have thought about why such a task would fall on him. But it was Anubis's extravagant reminder that made him understand Anubis's intentions instantly.
He just smiled at this, and did not take it seriously. He even planned to deliberately reveal some of his own background to Annubis's heart. In fact, he had a better way to solve the doubts and hostility of Anubis, the loyal dog, that is, to tell Anubis the true relationship between him and Yuanxu Zhenren, but he knew very well that this secret should be best told by Yuanxu Zhenren himself. After all, there are other plans and intentions of Yuanxu Zhenren. If it is leaked in advance, it will only be a bad thing.
Neodal stood up and walked to a quiet room behind the temple. Then he pulled out one from a bunch of blank scrolls from the copywriting, and then opened it and clicked on the scroll. The blank immediately appeared lines of beautifully shaped letters, and the meaning of these letters was roughly what Anubis arranged before.
After writing, Neodal came to a pool filled with black liquid in the middle of the quiet room, possessed her, and casually drew a circle on the liquid in the pool. The calm surface of the liquid immediately rippled layer by layer, and then the ripples were sunk in the middle, forming a hole that could not be seen at the bottom.
Then, Neodal threw the scroll in his hand into the hole and turned around and left the quiet room. At this time, the cave in the pool had not disappeared due to the retraction of divine power. He saw a slight golden light flying out from a pitch-black corner in the quiet room. Before the black liquid closed, it rushed into the black hole and disappeared.
At the same time, in the main hall, Neodal showed a smile on his face as if he had noticed it, and then his smile was completely restrained. Instead, he looked at the divine texts and divine formations on the stone giants with some sorrow.
Although after many attempts, Neodal has found a way to connect these stone giants with his mind and control these stone giants that have never been controlled by anyone in his hands, it is only his imitation of the set of joint attack magic. If he wants to go further and find the divine power that can freely transfer the body of these stone giants in each other's bodies, it will be difficult to use the method of casting.
In the past few days, he has tried all the methods he could think of. Although some methods can indeed transfer the divine power of other stone giants to a stone giant, the process is very slow, and a part of the body with divine text engraved is completely closely connected. It is impossible to transfer his divine power to other people in battle like Xu Changqing's turbid beast gods in battle, and then transfer the divine power back from other people.
In addition, what is even more troublesome is the limit of the stone giant's divine power. A stone giant can only bear the divine power of two stone giants at most. Once this limit is exceeded, it will collapse and backfire on its own.
After losing three stone giants, Neodal had to stop trying, because the only stone giants that remained in front of him could not withstand his attempts like this.
