Chapter 1048: Go with the flow

Gavin directly threw a two-headed flail seized from the Chosen of the Gnolls to the Dog Demon and said, "Do you know what the next task is?"

Although one of the souls of the Chosen of the Gnolls escaped, none of the body and weapons escaped, and all were left behind.

This two-headed flail is a high-end imitation of Yenogu's signature artifact, the three-headed flail Yenogu's Wrath.

Yenogu's reputation in the material plane is not even as loud as the name of his artifact.

The reason why it was useless before was that he was facing an undead enemy, who was immune to most control states.

If it were a flesh and blood body, it would be easy to be controlled to death by his artifact.

Neither the King of Giant Bones nor the King of Skeleton Dragons dared to enter the flesh and blood state from beginning to end.

These two-headed flails are also made of fine gold. Although they have not reached the level of artifacts, they have reached the top level of the mortal world. At the same time, being hit by the two heads can easily cause confusion.

On the ever-changing battlefield, a slight delay in reaction is very fatal, not to mention strange behavior.

Unfortunately, just like Yeenog's Wrath, this weapon has a special label, and its powerful magic effect can only be exerted in the hands of the gnolls.

In the hands of other species, it is just a two-headed adamantine flail. Not to mention the confusion effect of the two-headed hit, even the additional magic damage of fire and ice cannot take effect.

This limitation obviously does not exist for the dog demon who devoured the essence of the gnolls. After taking the two-headed flail, he swung it on the spot, as if it had been carefully tempered for ten years.

It seems that he also devoured the expertise and mastery of this exotic weapon from the gnoll God Chosen.

After adapting a little, the dog demon immediately bowed to Gavin and thanked him: "Thank you for the gift, Master. I will definitely live up to your high expectations and collect intelligence from the entire gnoll domain and present it to you."

Since he has been able to transform into a gnoll, the most suitable task for him is of course to infiltrate the enemy and collect relevant intelligence.

This is also his specialty.

For a long time, he has been loyal to Gavin in this way.

Gavin was very satisfied with the dog demon's answer and emphasized: "Find out for me how he sent millions of gnolls here. This is crucial to the next war."

Hearing this, the Queen of Burning Flame glared at the King of Giant Bones and the King of Skeleton Dragons and said: "Such important information, you didn't tell the master?"

"This..." The King of Giant Bones and the King of Skeleton Dragons couldn't help but feel guilty.

Although they have pledged allegiance to Gavin, they are still demons in their bones.

If the other party doesn't ask, they will never take the initiative to say it.

In the name of keeping a hand, preparing for the future.

But some things can be done but not said, especially when confronted in person like now.

The Burning Queen sold out the two high-level undead lords, turned to Gavin and said with a smile: "This is an open secret. The Bone Plane and the Yeenogu Realm once belonged to an extremely powerful Obyris Demon Lord.

In order to facilitate ruling, at the peak of his rule, he built a huge teleportation magic circle in the plane he ruled.

The King of the Gnolls mastered part of this core secret and collectively teleported his army of gnolls through a regional teleportation magic circle called the Screaming Peaks.

The Screaming Peaks are located between the Bone Plains and the Lost Soul Throne of the Ghoul King."

"I see." Gavin glanced at the two high-level undead lords meaningfully, "Do you know the specific operating principle of it?"

The King of the Giant Bones and the King of the Skeleton Dragon were frightened by Gavin's glance, and the fire of their souls was jumping wildly.

Sometimes not being angry is more intimidating than being angry.

No one knows what means this young divine being will use to deal with them.

In order to make up for his mistake, the King of Bones rushed to answer: "This is not very clear. Yenogu regards it as his biggest secret.

But one thing is certain, every time it is used, the Screaming Peaks will enter a state of inversion.

The Skeleton Peaks of the Bone Plane go to the Yenogu Domain, and the Screaming Peaks land in the same position.

The expeditionary gnolls brought by the King of Gnolls this time have been given to the King of Ghouls. The Screaming Peaks are estimated to have returned to the Yenogu Domain to recruit the gnoll army again."

Gavin ignored the King of Bones' additional explanation, but continued to say to the Queen of Burning Flame, "This news is very important and will determine the direction of our next battle. Reward."

With a wave of his hand, a shadow aircraft swooped down from the sky with a roar.

Gavin explained: "It is given to you as your exclusive escort and transportation. In this way, you don't have to waste too much energy on flying and can concentrate on attacking."

Not to mention mortals, even gods have limited energy.

When too much energy and strength are spent on one aspect, it means that the investment in another aspect will be greatly reduced.

This is the meaning of specialization.

"Thank you, Master." The Queen of Burning Flame did not show much joy.

The Shadow Flying Machine is a little useful for her, but not too much.

For long distances, she has flame teleportation.

For close distances, usually in combat, flame gushing is more convenient.

That is to provide a little help when not too far or too close, or provide a little air fire support.

Gavin seemed to see through the Queen of Burning Flame's thoughts and added: "It is just your temporary vehicle. After finding the right materials, I will tailor a flame model for you that can effectively combine with your own abilities."

This time, the Queen of Burning Flame finally aroused her interest. "Then I'll trouble you, Master. I'll wait for your good news."

"This is just one of them." Gavin raised the War Raider in his hand, and the dark power surged. One by one, the shadows of the drow elves came out, and the number was no less than a hundred. "They are the former priests and believers of the undead goddess of vengeance, Qi Yalan Sali. From today on, they are yours.

They can help you build your own doctrine and basic belief framework, and help you take the most critical step."

"Thank you, Master." The flames of the Queen of Burning Flame rose uncontrollably, representing the extreme joy of the person involved. She looked at the 100 shadows of the drow elves as if she were looking at a super baby.

Compared with the shadow aircraft, they are what she needs most at the moment.

For someone who wants to set foot in the realm of God, believers are the top priority, especially such mature believers.

Gavin said to the drow elf shadows: "From today on, she is your new god, the Flame of Vengeance, the controller of the power of vengeance. You need to serve her wholeheartedly, just like you treat me. Not only will you gain more powerful power, but one day, you will even be free."

"We will do our best to serve our Lord, the Flame of Vengeance." Many drow elf shadows answered in unison.

As soon as the voice fell, a layer of red flames rose from the bodies of more than a dozen drow elf shadows.

This means that she has established a basic faith connection with the Queen of Burning Flame.

Faith is a very mysterious thing. It can be cultivated over a long period of time.

It can also be formed in an instant.

These drow evil god priests are more unique. For many of them, believing in a certain god is to gain more powerful power.

Rather than saying that they believe in this god, it is better to say that they worship the power she possesses.

Therefore, betrayal and turning to the arms of a more powerful god are commonplace.

Of course, this has something to do with the fact that the power of revenge that the Burning Flame Queen possesses is of the same lineage as Qi Yalan Sari.

"Good! Good! Good!" Feeling the wonderful spiritual connection established between the two sides, the flames on the Burning Flame Queen cheered even more. Invisibly, she felt that she had a deeper understanding of the path to becoming a god, "From today on, you are my flame of revenge, and I will share the glory of revenge with you."

Groups of flame essences and vengeance divine power spread out along the faith link between the two sides and were injected into the bodies of those converted drow elf shadows. Suddenly, the flame power in their bodies surged, and the situation began to change to flame ghosts, but they also had the characteristics of real shadows.

"Thank you for the gift of my god." Whether it was the blessing or the unblessing drow elf shadows, they all thanked loudly.

Like bamboo shoots after rain, flames rose from them one after another, and at least half of the drow elf shadow priests established a faith connection with the Burning Flame Queen.

If it was said that it was a natural faith transfer before.

Then now, it is a conscious behavior.

These evil god priests usually have the ability of bewitching and self-hypnosis. Only in this way can they easily gain the favor of the evil god and gain more powerful power.

The Burning Flame Queen doesn't care about these. As long as they convert, she will bless them as usual. This is the foundation of her future faith, so it is not surprising to give them special care.

"Should I introduce Daphne to her?" Gavin thought to himself.

That's a smart person. As long as she is given a chance, she will definitely become the first choice of the Burning Flame Queen.

And the resources she controls in the material plane are not comparable to these drow elf shadow priests.

Let's wait and see. You can't be open-hearted to these demons and give them all the good things at once.

While thinking about the way of power, Gavin secretly observed the King of Giant Bones and the King of Skeleton Dragons.

As expected, when they saw Gavin reward the Burning Flame Queen with the Shadow Flying Vehicle, they did not react too violently.

But when they saw the group of drow shadow priests, they could no longer sit still. The fire of their souls fluctuated wildly, flickering with envy and jealousy uncontrollably.

This was naturally intentional by Gavin.

For them, the biggest punishment was that others had something they didn't, especially in matters of faith.

The nature of these demons forced him to play tricks.

Leaving aside the Burning Queen who was indulging in her new harvest, Gavin turned to the dog demon and continued: "Your mission remains unchanged, infiltrate the Yeenog domain and collect as much intelligence and information as possible there, especially about teleportation, no matter how big or small, I want it."

"Yes, sir." The dog demon responded loudly, "I have another suggestion, I don't know if I should say it."

"Say it."

"If the master wants to go to war with the King of Gnolls and the King of Ghouls, the war does not necessarily have to be limited to the Abyss." The dog demon wolf showed a cunning smile on his face, "The master has an advantage that other demon lords do not have.

You have a huge territory and extraordinary influence in the material plane. You only need to give an order to start a full-scale war against the Gnolls and Ghouls in half of the Faerun continent.

As the gods of their race, once their own race suffers a large number of casualties in a short period of time, it will inevitably cause shock and impact on them.

Those demon priests will inevitably beg their gods for power, which will further dilute their power. "

"This is indeed a good suggestion." Gavin nodded lightly, "I will consider it."

Seeing Gavin's reaction, the dog demon did not say anything else, and directly asked: "Then I will go to the Yenogu domain."

As an old man who watched Gavin grow up, the dog demon knew that his suggestion coincided with the other party.

He must have brewed a similar plan in his mind, even more detailed and comprehensive than his.

This young lord is not only growing in strength, his scheming and scheming are also increasing day by day, and it is becoming more and more difficult to guess.

"Go. "Gavin waved his hand.

The dog demon stopped talking and directly activated the teleportation spell, heading to the Yenogu Domain, and appeared not far from the Yenogu Pass, visible to the naked eye.

Although the dog demon had never been to the Yenogu Domain, it had eaten the chosen gnoll and gained a lot of extra benefits from him, such as using his memory fragments as the teleportation coordinates for precise teleportation.

The dog demon did not go to the Yenogu Pass, but headed away from it.

Although it had gained useful information there, The probability is the highest, but the risk is also the highest.

The transformation of the Gnoll can deceive those ordinary Gnolls, but it is impossible to deceive the Gnoll King.

Trying to become the new God of the Gnoll King is even more wishful thinking. The wisest choice is to start collecting intelligence from the outside.

The primary task of infiltration is not to obtain precious intelligence, but to ensure your own safety and not be caught by the enemy in the first place.

Only in this way can more intelligence be collected.

The dog demon transformed into a large Gnoll quickly sank into the dark grassland, and wherever it went, , the howling of gnolls was heard one after another, and those gnolls were being enchanted by him and became his vassals.

It won't be long before he will establish a gnoll army of his own here.

Don't think about directly challenging the ruling power of the gnoll king, but within the rules, it is no problem to disrupt the situation here and cause small-scale riots.

Fighting for power and profit is the main theme of the Abyss.

This is even more true for the kingdom of the gnoll king who controls the violent priesthood. There are many cases where gnolls fight each other over a disagreement.

This is also The main reason why the King of the Gnolls has not been able to develop.

Once the external survival pressure decreases, they will fall into endless civil wars and killings, and eventually lead to decline and defeat.

Gavin did not pay more attention to the dog demons, which was a leisurely thing.

If there is a gain, it is a pleasant surprise.

If there is no gain, it is a normal phenomenon.

The focus of the plan cannot be placed on this. The right way is to manage and strengthen the territory and form a stronger army.

"Since we have reached a consensus on the division of the territory, let's start the transformation!" Gavin turned the topic back to the original topic.

The Queen of Burning Flame, who came back from the excitement, laughed heartily and said, "Since the master is so generous, I can't be too stingy.

Aldridge's Skeleton Lich Tower is given to the master. I believe that his strange and weird things will be more valuable in the hands of the master."

"I won't be polite. "Gavin agreed readily.

He had previously used the Giant Skull Castle of the Giant Bone King as his residence.

Although the corpse of the Obyris Demon Lord was somewhat unusual and very similar in nature to the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, Gavin had no intention of driving it.

Firstly, the Abyss was not his permanent residence after all. Its isolation from the material plane made it difficult for him to draw strength from it in the future. When he left, it would easily become a huge security risk for the entire multiverse.

Secondly, there was a lack of faith here, and there were not so many creatures who could cooperate sincerely. Under the combined efforts, these demons would only hinder each other.

Besides, he was the direct controller of the entire territory. If he really needed to drive him one day, it would not make much difference whether it was in the Giant Skull Castle or the Skeleton Lich Tower.

The happiest person at this time was the Giant Bone King. He was really worried that Gavin would stay in the Giant Skull Castle.

"Let's go! Let's go to the Skeleton Lich Tower! "

When Gavin led three high-level undead lords to the Skeleton Lich Tower, it was still in ruins.

The Queen of Burning Flame gave it to Gavin, which was somewhat like going with the flow.

She had neither the time nor the ability to repair it.

"Man proposes, God disposes." Looking at the appearance of the Skeleton Lich Tower, Gavin couldn't help but sigh again, "I didn't expect that the self-detonation of a shadow aircraft would affect so many changes in the situation. If there is a chance, I will definitely visit Her Highness Lady Tymora of Fortune and let her pay more attention to me."

As his strength increased, Gavin's mentality was also changing imperceptibly. His awe of the gods was obviously decreasing, and he treated them more equally.

As Gavin entered the Skeleton Lich Tower, the undead killing power that was originally infused in the Giant Skull Castle was instantly transferred over. As he climbed the steps, it dyed it blood red bit by bit, and the soul energy in the entire territory gathered in this direction like a flood.

When Gavin reached the top of the ruins, a magical scene happened.

Countless bone fragments and dust, under the influence of an invisible force, flew from all directions and gathered around the Skeleton Lich Tower, restoring them to their original positions exactly.

The ruins of the Skeleton Lich Tower were being repaired bit by bit.

That situation was like time going backwards. (End of this chapter)
