Chapter 402: Changes in the depths of the soul
On the whole, Pheren should be regarded as a world of equality between men and women. Not only can women become warriors, mages, priests, druids, bards, and other powerful fighting professions, but they are also not inferior to men in terms of politics and rule, and many countries have had queens with excellent governing ability. Not to mention the gods, although they can change their gender at will, they still appear as women in more than half of them.
Henry wondered why a country like Kalinsan, which oppressed women, hadn't caused the Church of Good God to interfere. After all, Ilmat, the god of suffering, has a considerable number of holy warriors and warrior monks there, and although it is not realistic to overthrow the entire system, it is not difficult to make a slight change. Perhaps because of his teachings, this god always taught believers patience, suffering, martyrdom, and perseverance, but he rarely mentioned words such as resistance and fighting for rights.
He felt that unless he took a look for himself, he would never understand why this desert country could maintain such a strange situation. They ostensibly believe in the gods and obey the king's rule, but secretly they are constantly fighting, and with the magic talisman controlling about half of the ruling class, the chaos of power is beyond imagination.
No wonder some scholars have said that since the collapse of the empire built by the djinn, intrigue and war have never ceased in this land. Evil dragons and eye demons once ruled over the sapient beings here, but they were all killed. More than 1,000 years ago, the Shane dynasty was founded in Port Carlin, but it inevitably declined for various reasons.
Despite a powerful half-lich, the Necromantic Emperor Shane VII is secretly making preparations. Prepare to reclaim your country. But his enemies are not weak either. Neither the Talisman Society nor the current rulers would allow this to happen. It can be said that Kalinsan is a powder keg in a delicate balance, and once this balance is broken, the flames of war will be ignited immediately.
However, these complex forms have little to do with Henry for the time being. After talking for a few minutes, he was impressed by the sense of responsibility of the young girl named Anice, and did not hesitate to appoint her in charge of the daily work of the mansion, and at the same time gave all the maids a certain amount of freedom. They were able to walk around the safer areas of the city, and although their range of activities was still very limited, it was a paradise compared to the days when Kalinshan couldn't even go out of their rooms.
Freely. What extravagant words. The girls in the bathroom let out a cheer of joy and reciprocated with the only thing they were good at. Henry indulged in a rare time, enjoying the treatment of an emperor to the fullest, and did not even need to lift a finger at all, just lie quietly.
The pleasure of the (flesh) made him relax his tense spirit, and he devoted himself to the strict subject of human reproduction. The (gasping) and moaning in the bathroom lasted for more than an hour before it gradually stopped, and the four girls who served the bath were lying limp in the bath. Their eyes were a little misty, and there were still a lot of red marks on their necks and chests, all of which were traces left after the (excited) feelings.
Henry stood up and kissed everyone on the forehead, then got dressed and found a random room and fell asleep. He was so tired. Just a few seconds later, there was a snoring.
In the midst of the dream, the room full of mirrors reappeared. It's different from before. This time the mirrors in the room were suddenly reduced a bit, and the one on the opposite side looked much larger than the last time. This strange phenomenon made Henry suddenly have a bad premonition, although he didn't know exactly what happened, but one thing was certain, that is, the opposite side was also slowly absorbing these emotions and memories.
He didn't dare to slack off, and immediately came to the mirror on the opposite side and asked loudly, "What the hell is going on?" When did you start having this ability? โ
"Hahahaha! Scared? I don't just belong to you, my soul belongs to me. What do you think is the power of the ego? It's about turning something that everyone thought was impossible into reality! When the second fragment is absorbed, we also have the ability to interfere with the real world. You put that into magic, and I put it into my consciousness. โ
Speaking of this, the face of the opposite side showed a hideous expression. Suddenly, he stretched out a hand from the mirror, instantly grabbed Henry's neck and shouted, "See?!" This is the power, and now this broken seal can't trap me. With enough time, all the memories, emotions, including the soul here, will be mine sooner or later! When we merge, it will be me, not you, who will be the primary consciousness. โ
Henry was surprisingly calm, neither immediately breaking free nor retorting. He stared at the eyes of the person in the mirror like this, and after ten minutes, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he said in a mocking tone: "So there is going to be a competition between us." Whoever absorbs more will be stronger, and when the final moment comes, you and I will fight, the winner will inherit a qiฤ, and the loser will become nourishment to strengthen the entire spiritual world. โ
"Haha! I have to say that your senses are as sharp as ever. Yes, I am no longer a lamb to be harvested, and you are not yet at the end of your rope. From now on, we are on the same starting line. I've absorbed a range of emotions like anger and jealousy, and if you're not fast enough, you'll be left far behind. With that, he let go of his hand and returned to the mirror.
His eyes didn't look like they used to be, just crazy and distorted. Now there is a hint of annoyance and envy, and I feel more and more like a person. This is not a good thing, originally a consciousness hidden in the depths of the soul is troublesome enough, if you have countless emotions and memories, I am afraid that it will not be too long before you will try to start fighting for control of the body.
Realizing the severity of the problem, Henry stopped talking nonsense and walked straight towards the other mirror that sealed his feelings. He has to race against the clock now, and if he can't get ahead, he will become more and more passive. This is a never-ending battle for the soul, neither side has any room to retreat, in order to defend their independent consciousness and personality, there is only a desperate battle.
The mirror chosen this time is very large, and the person in the mirror clenches his fists, and the cold light from his eyes makes people feel cold all over his body. Henry could tell at a glance that it was hatred, the real demon hidden in his heart. Not only can it make people burst out with endless power, but it will also completely destroy a person's downline, making them become unscrupulous, and eventually go further and further on the road of self-destruction.
But now there is obviously no choice, if the opposite side gets this feeling, then it will become stronger, combined with anger, jealousy, greed and other negative feelings, will give birth to a monster that is more chaotic and evil than the devil, more cunning and intelligent than the devil.
Henry couldn't imagine what such a villain would do if he gained dominance. It may be possible that a war will be unleashed that will engulf the entire multiverse, and perhaps the gods will be completely destroyed. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be smart, and put his hands on the sides of the mirror without hesitation.
Just like when I used to absorb feelings, after a simple answer, the mirror erupted with a dazzling light, and then completely shattered into tens of thousands of glass shards. Countless images of humiliation on Earth began to flash in my mind, and hatred gradually grew in my heart, and after a while, I had the idea of revenge.
Henry was not a very generous person in the first place, and once this kind of affection arises, it is difficult to control it. He only felt an irrepressible anger in his heart that he wanted to release, but he couldn't find a suitable target after looking around. Like Joan. Erenikas is obviously not yet ready to reckoning, and an enemy of the level of the goddess of the night, Shar, is too powerful to be an opponent at the moment.
After thinking about it, he finally locked on a target for revenge, and that was the Shahua Fishman. Not only did these damn creatures destroy all the cities and villages along the coast of Baldur's Gate, but they also allowed themselves to flee to Belgoust with their army in a wolf bรจi. Yes, that's right, it's these crumbs.
The moment the goal was established, Henry woke up violently. I saw that his eyes flashed with hatred and anger, and he didn't even wear clothes, he directly blessed himself with the "Flying Technique", and then opened a portal and appeared in the air in the port area of Deep Water City. It was just getting dark, and Jacques Houas was commanding his army to storm the human defenses.
Since the experiences of both sides are focused on the battlefield, no one has noticed a naked silver-haired man standing in the sky for the time being. Except, of course, Kyleburn and Leila. These two Legendary Mages and Chosen Ones of the Goddess of Magic constantly monitored all the magical energy around Waterdeep, and a fifth-level magic "teleportation" could not escape their eyes at all.
Covering her mouth, Leila asked her husband in surprise, "Oh my God! Is that Henry? He didn't wear anything, what was he trying to do? โ
Before Kyleburn could speak, Henry, who was standing in mid-air, suddenly began to chant a spell loudly, and a spherical magical black hole was released little by little, gradually forming a tunnel to Heavenly Mountain. Massive positive energy poured out, gathering and compressing in the center of the vortex.
In just a dozen seconds or so, a light cluster like a small sun appeared in the sky above the port area, and it was getting smaller and smaller. All the casters felt the immense power within, and Jacques Houas did not hesitate to shout loudly, causing all the fishmen to retreat towards the sea, while the human officers shouted for the soldiers to retreat.
It turned out to be the right decision, except that they both underestimated the terrifying power of legendary magic. When the entire spell was completed, a hint of revenge crossed Henry's face, and then the black hole was withdrawn, and the point of light compressed to the extreme was thrown into the sea.
