Chapter 1784 It Just Wants a Body
Su Xiao returned to the place where they first arrived, Kiel City.
The old teleportation array suddenly lit up with white light, and Su Xiao appeared out of thin air, followed by Bubuwang, Amu, Baha, and Caesar. Opposite the teleportation array, behind the wooden window embedded in the stone wall, a large area of tree roots were intertwined and occupied a place.
Just like the movement of a tree, a pair of dull eyes opened from within the roots.
"You are here." The old wizard sat in a wooden wheelchair, his voice hoarse. The tree roots were wriggling around him, but he pushed the wheelchair forward and broke free from the tree roots. The old wizard's upper body looked like a normal person, except that his gray hair was a little sparse. However, his legs were cut off below the thighs.
From the jagged pieces of cloth near the wound, it was clear that the old wizard's legs were not cut by a sharp weapon, but were smashed by some long blunt object. The wooden wheelchair rolled over the ground mechanism, and the wooden railing in front quickly decayed and broke, along with the more than one-meter-high stone wall below.
"Did the mission go smoothly?" 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". Am immediately understood and walked behind the old wizard to help him push the wheelchair.
"That's a fitting name. Yes, I am the host of the previous generation. If everything goes well, Nia will be the host of the new generation. She is more perfect than me and more in line with [its] expectations. [It] even injected ancient god blood into Nia's body, making her more suitable as a vessel. 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. So he just believed that it was okay, right?
However, since it was his task to deal with the ancient god, Su Xiao did not bring Lin Jiu along. Hearing that the guy had a bad feeling about the next round of the task, Su Xiao wanted to finish the task quickly so that he could go over and see the guy's excitement.
Su Xiao gradually learned everything through his own guesses and the old wizard's supplement. All the changes in this world came from Azathoth, an ancient god who was degenerated from a concept god in a higher-level world. He was severely damaged and split into two parts: consciousness and body.
Azathoth's consciousness was stored in a human long ago. His name was Zeus Alexander. And the old wizard was named Zeus Archide.
[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 written by Cius Alexander, who was the ancestor of the old wizard Cius Archide. He "believed" in Sothoth on the surface, but in fact he just wanted to paralyze Sothoth, not sincerely.
The Hughes family has continued to this day and has split into two branches. One branch retains the Hughes family name, while the other changes to Morn. The immortal wizard Morn Laurent is a descendant of the Hughes family, although he himself does not know it.
The consciousness of Azathoth deeply influenced the two families. The Hughes family, as the "inheritor" of the consciousness of Azathoth, although on the surface they were respectful to the ruler Sothoth, in fact, they were thinking of using Sothoth and intended to profit from him.
All of Morn Laurent's actions, including gathering the dawn and 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 useful, so it was preparing to cultivate one. And the light of hope, Nia, was the candidate it favored, giving it hope.
However, with the intervention of the losing team's MVP Laurent, before Azathoth could take action, Nia completed her mission and died in the battle with Sothoth.
To put it simply, the whole incident was that Azathoth's consciousness was separated from his body due to severe injuries, and because his body developed bestiality, he had to live in a container that was both powerful and qualified to fight the ancient gods, and fight with his own body to regain control.
Or it can be said that without the protection of Azathoth's consciousness, Near would not have been able to grow to such an extent, and would probably have been noticed by the ruler Sothoth long ago.
After the failure of the first crusade, the ruler Sothoth lived in the different space of Heru City. The Bone Port is actually not far from the headquarters of the Wizards' Guild, which is almost under Sothoth's nose.
Shuguang and the others had been beaten so badly by Sothoth that they didn't know what to do. It was not normal to cultivate Nia right under the enemy's nose. In other words, someone was assisting Shuguang and the others behind the scenes without their knowledge.
Didn't Shuguang think of this? No, she had thought of it a long time ago. But she was more eager to see the ruler Sothoth die. That's why Gus described her as paranoid.
It can be said that the White Goat, Sothoth and the beastly Azathoth are in a group, and Azathoth's consciousness represents another force. By the way, there is also 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 the regular tasks. Now the regular task process is obvious and has surfaced, that is, after going deeper according to the clues, he first cooperated with Azathoth's consciousness to deal with the White Goat gang together.
The erosion of this world is the work of the White Goat and the Ruler Sothoth, and the robbery of things in the Paradise of Samsara and the interruption of trade are also the plans 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 take back its body!
But our General Su is a nobody. He thought, if you take back the body, I won't be able to beat you. No, it's safer to kill you first. So he came to find the old wizard.
For Su Xiao, who possesses the [Chapter of Greed], eliminating Azathoth's consciousness is not a difficult problem. He just needs to pull it in and let the Butcher of Living Things kill it.
And just as Lin Jiu reminded him before leaving Heru City, the moment Su Xiao dealt with Aimless Azathoth, he encountered an assassination attempt from the contractor, no, it should be said that the violator.
Su Xiao did not make any arrangements for this assassination. His arrangements were already very cautious, and he was on guard against Azathoth the Eyeless, so that he could solve it by surprise. If he made arrangements for the assassination of the offender, who knows what accidents might happen.
After learning from Lin Jiu that the result of their assassination did not even cause him serious injury, Su Xiao ignored it. If he could not be seriously injured, he could recover by drinking a bottle of ancient secret medicine. There was no need to take the risk of alerting Wumu Azathoth.
In a huge cave, a woman dressed lightly and with long light red hair was sitting with her head down under a stone wall. Her eyes gradually regained their spirit.
"That's ridiculous! Damn it!" The corners of the woman's lips twitched and her face turned slightly pale.
"Meihuan, he is not dead?" A deep male voice came from a man of medium build. The light around him was a little distorted, making it difficult to see his face.
“It’s not as simple as not dying. After being hit by me, the hunter is at most... slightly injured.” Meihuan locked onto Su Xiao remotely and launched an assassination attempt.
"That's..."
"Yo~ You guys hid pretty well. It took me a while to find you." A frivolous voice came from the entrance of the cave. At the same time, a figure blocked part of the sunlight from entering the cave.
