In the basement of the God of the Bright Sun's enchantment shop, the Shadow Goddess, the God of the Bright Sun, the God of Flowing Water, and the Goddess of Beauty were all gathered here.
Standing before them was one of the 'matriarchs' of Blacktide Island, Deng Hisi.
"Absorbing the memories of Blacktide Island has made me understand many things."
Looking at these gods who were once high and mighty, Deng Isis said, "The competition between your Pantheon Alliance, and the upgrading of your worlds … In your original worlds, in order to obtain more faith, you sent your believers everywhere to fight and kill. In the past … I was also one of those believers, but in the end, all you fought over was just this boring stuff."
Deng Hisi took out a bag of mother crystals and placed it on the wooden table. These mother crystals were all nurtured by Blacktide Island, and the energy they contained was no different from divine crystals. They were both things that could help the gods improve their power.
"Faith power. I can give you as much as you want," Deng Hisi said.
The gods had come to the Blacktide Island not only to prevent the Blacktide Island from descending upon the Brandt Island world and causing their own world to collapse, but also to earn divine crystals.
The Pantheon Alliance was a huge organization, and every god in the organization only had one thing in mind, and that was to collect more believers to become stronger.
But other than that, there was another way, and that was to complete the commission issued by the Pantheon Alliance, and then obtain divine crystals as a reward.
Now the commission issued by the Pantheon Alliance was to destroy the Spell Stealers on Blacktide Island, but unfortunately … because the Spell Stealers had mastered the power of the Abyss, the gods had to take a huge risk to destroy them.
So they passed the commission to the Sacred Spirit to complete, while they themselves relied on their various abilities to earn divine crystal commissions from the Sacred Spirit.
"I can work with you, but on one condition — let me control the power of Chaos on Brandt Island!"
The Shadow Goddess was the leader of this secret meeting. She had been planning to steal the power of Chaos on Brandt Island for a long time, but the Sacred Spirit's intervention had completely ruined her plan.
Now, Deng Hisi's appearance gave her a second chance.
"I still can't accept you working with the Spell Stealers!
Talisa. "
The God of the Bright Sun watched the Shadow Goddess's decision, but still chose to stand up and hold her arm.
"You can't accept it?
That's because you have countless believers, and countless cities have built temples for you!
I'm different … I'm the God of Protection for Thieves, a shadow that only dark people would believe in. "
The Shadow Goddess shook off the God of Glorious Sun's arm. "I've had enough of having to submit to you and the God of War no matter what I do!"
"I have no intention of cooperating with you, Gods."
Seeing that the God of the Glorious Sun and the Shadow Goddess were about to quarrel, Deng Isis interrupted them. "This is a deal, just like the deal you make with the Divine Spirits. The Divine Spirits will use divine crystals to buy equipment, potions, and even your craftsmanship from you. Then, I will use more valuable mother crystals to hire you … away from the Divine Spirits."
Deng Xi learned a lot of things from the Matriarch's memories, including the shard of divinity that had lost its divine power and the method to repair it.
At present, the Divine Spirits were much weaker than the Blacktide Island's Spell Stealer, but the more shards of divinity they obtained, the stronger they became, and the smaller Deng Xi's chances of winning.
So, Deng Xi now had two choices — kill all the gods in the Pantheon Alliance, or … bribe them.
The first decision required Deng Xi to spend a lot of energy. These gods were not as weak as he imagined, and starting a war on both sides was the worst decision. Deng Xi decided to try the latter.
"These mother crystals contain impurities, Talisa …" The God of the Bright Sun was still trying to dissuade the Shadow Goddess.
"That's because you've earned god knows how many divine crystals from the Divine Spirits with that damn Blessing of the Bright Sun ability of yours!
We lowly lesser gods don't have that ability! "
The Shadow Goddess was almost driven mad by the God of the Glorious Sun. She had accumulated a great deal of resentment from centuries of being oppressed by the highgods. The arrival of Brandt Island was an opportunity for her, and so was Deng Hisi's invitation!
Unequal treatment existed everywhere, even among the gods.
"Rau!
I order you to take that bag of mother crystals! "
The Shadow Goddess found that she could not break free from the God of the Bright Sun's restraints, so she directly ordered the Beauty Goddess who was deep in thought.
The Beauty Goddess was one of the few subordinate gods of the Shadow Goddess … She was originally eloquent in front of the Divine Spirits, but at this moment, she placed her hand on her chest, struggling and hesitating.
"Rau … Do you think the Divine Spirits can give you this power?" The Shadow Goddess questioned the Beauty Goddess in a low voice.
Although the Beauty Goddess was the representative of the Pantheon Alliance, her business was the worst among the gods. Most of the Divine Spirits only wandered around in front of her … They never thought of spending even a single divine crystal on her.
In fact, the Beauty Goddess had wanted to introduce a series of functions like 'Heart to Heart', but they were all rejected by Jiang Qiao. This caused the Beauty Goddess to become a simple NPC with a pretty face.
At this moment, the Beauty Goddess felt a stabbing pain in her chest. She helplessly took the bag of mother crystals given by Deng Xi and handed it to the Shadow Goddess whose hands were restrained by the God of the Bright Sun.
The mother crystals disappeared the moment they touched the Shadow Goddess …
"Talitha!
You should know that there's the power of the abyss inside! "The God of the Bright Sun yelled uncontrollably.
"You have your ways to become stronger, and so do I … Rau, take it." The Shadow Goddess threw a bag of mother crystals to the Beauty Goddess.
The Beauty Goddess looked at the bag of about three hundred mother crystals and was at a loss.
But right at this moment … the entire secret chamber suddenly began to tremble slightly.
"Did that meddlesome God of War find out again?" The Shadow Goddess looked up.
"Uld has tacitly allowed us to work with the Spell Stealer, or I wouldn't be here." The God of the Bright Sun sensed multiple presences appearing above. "It's the Divine Spirits."
"The Divine Spirits won't allow us to work with the Spell Stealer," the God of Flowing Water, who had been silent all this time, said.
By the time the God of Flowing Water spoke, Deng Xi's figure had already disappeared from the secret room. At this moment, the door to the secret room was violently pushed open by a group of Divine Spirits.
"The guide fee is one gold coin per person!
And the fee to open the barrier is also one gold coin per person. Alright, this is the secret room under the Glorious Sun Blessing Shop, although I don't know what it's usually used for. Hey, you're all here. "
The God of the Bright Sun looked at the group of Divine Spirits who had entered a combat-ready state, but under the signal of the God of the Bright Sun, they did not act rashly.
"Divine Spirits, this is not a place for you." The God of the Bright Sun glanced at the Divine Spirits who had suddenly barged into the secret room. There were at least twenty of them.
But these Divine Spirits ignored the God of the Bright Sun's words, and Remnant Heart was one of them. Although he was a Plane Pirate player, he still spent a lot of money to buy a large pile of Divine Crystals and came here.
Remnant Heart took a deep breath and walked up to the Beauty Goddess who was at a loss.
"Divine Spirit, what do you want?" The Beauty Goddess still had a professional smile on her face.
As a male Magician, he was only 1.5 meters tall, while the Beauty Goddess was 1.7 meters tall. Standing in front of the Beauty Goddess, Remnant Heart was two heads shorter.
But this did not stop him from doing what he wanted to do next.
Remnant Heart took out the 300 Divine Crystals he had prepared, held them in his hands, and handed them to the Beauty Goddess.
"Come … come home with me!" he said loudly, stuttering.
