Chapter 422 Savior: Choice is more important than effort, just follow me
The Grand Wizard never imagined that he would meet this savior, the Chaos Predator, in the Crystal Maze.
Many thoughts passed through his mind.
Could it be that the savior fell into a trap and was imprisoned here?
Also saying that this being appears to be the savior of the empire, but has actually fallen into chaos and become a slave of the evil god? !
But no matter what kind of guess it is, it clearly points to one result——
The human empire is coming to an end!
A Primarch secretly fallen into Chaos or betrayed could do unimaginable harm to the Imperium.
Especially in such a precarious and dark time.
"Perhaps, the Black Legion will usher in a new expedition, and the Chaos Warmaster will surely rule the galaxy..."
The great wizard thought and couldn't help but smile.
However, the voice of the savior, the Chaos Predator, gave him an unexpected answer.
"Why am I here..."
Ron looked leisurely and came to the great wizard: "I'm here for sightseeing, can't I?
Please hurry up. If it doesn't work, just let me do it. Don't waste time. "
At this time, the guardian of the passage, the huge golden face, gave the puzzle.
The great wizard pondered the riddle and mocked: "Savior, the Golden Gate will not favor those without wisdom, even if you are a primarch."
Even he himself spent thousands of years to obtain the wisdom, or knowledge system, to enter the gate.
Any small branch among them is enough for a mortal scholar to spend a lifetime.
The riddle of this golden gate must be solved by one person alone, and only one person can enter at a time. He does not believe that the savior can have such wisdom.
"Perhaps the great sage next to the savior can have a chance to enter and at least break through the three gates."
The great wizard thought so.
He himself can break through five golden doors, and this time he is about to challenge the sixth one to obtain the wonderful knowledge behind that door.
If you can completely pass through the nine golden gates.
Then he can enter the library that contains infinite knowledge of the universe, obtain any knowledge he wishes to obtain, and become one of the most intelligent beings in the galaxy!
"*****"
It didn't take long for the great wizard to think of the answer to the riddle, which was a complex term involving multiple disciplines and witchcraft and magic.
Rumble——
"The correct answer..."
The huge golden face surrounded by pink and blue weird energy nodded, and suddenly opened its big mouth, forming a portal.
It is the gate itself.
"Savior, I look forward to seeing you on the next journey. Of course, the probability of that is so slim that it can be ignored."
The great wizard stepped into the portal without forgetting to ridicule.
After he is ready to return, he will tell the Chaos Warmaster the news of meeting the savior here, or do some prophecy and divination.
See what's going on.
Not long after, the great wizard passed through four more golden portals and came to the sixth gate.
There are more beings wandering on the platform here, some are unconscious, some even have physical mutations, and their bodies are covered with eyeballs and wailing mouths.
These people were unable to answer the correct answer for a long time and fell into eternal madness and regret because they could have gained infinite knowledge.
The great wizard listens to the ravings of these beings and absorbs the knowledge. These madmen are all high-level wizards or scholars, casting experts, etc. in the galaxy.
He has a lot of skills and knowledge.
He even obtained the process of a certain prophecy system from an ancient witch who came from a certain feudal Middle Ages tens of thousands of years ago.
That's a lost art.
This is the preciousness of the knowledge path. Too many existences lost here have become knowledge itself.
Afterwards, the great wizard listened to the riddles revealed by the giant golden face. The riddles given by the guardian were so difficult that he didn't even have the direction to think.
Fortunately, he had a lot of time to answer.
Pilgrims can even stay here and contemplate forever if they wish.
There is the risk of getting lost and becoming crazy.
"I won't become a madman..."
The great wizard thought confidently. He has been here many times. Although it is difficult, he has come out of the edge of being lost several times.
As the chief wizard of the black army team, he will never succumb to chaos, but use it.
This is what the Chaos Warmaster has always done.
A break for thinking.
The great wizard suddenly thought of the savior again. He didn't know if that arrogant, arrogant, and omnipotent guy had passed the first gate?
Even if he could, it might just be luck.
roar!
A sharp roar appeared.
The eighty-ninth great demon of the Lord of Change, Fateweaver Balu, arrived here.
"Give in!"
This being waved its wings and used colorful magic to knock away the lost ones and clear a path. More great demons stood on both sides of the road and continued to drive away the lost ones.
Many people who were answering questions here were also forced to squeeze into the crowd.
Even the great wizard is like this.
Although the chief wizard of the Black Legion was a little annoyed, he made no move.
He knew that this Tzeentch demon named Balu was a recently favored Fateweaver.
Participated in many wars against other chaotic realms with fruitful results.
No one dared to doubt the fateweaver's amazing achievements.
And that guy was very rude, not like a Fateweaver at all. He preferred to use force to solve problems roughly. He was an outlier in the Crystal Maze.
The great wizard did not want to provoke the other party unless necessary, especially in the realm of the Lord of Change.
In fact, it was just a disguised reckless persona of Balu, who was very smart behind the scenes.
Moreover, due to his unplanned and brainless actions, his success rate in combat has also been greatly increased, coupled with the cooperation of other ghosts in the Chaos Realm.
That’s why he had such an amazing record and advanced all the way.
"There are quite a lot of people here..."
Ron stepped onto the platform along the road, surrounded by the All-Change Healer, the Blue Terror, and the Pink Terror, as if he was visiting a scenic spot with a group of followers.
In addition to the big devil who leads the way, there are also dedicated personnel explaining related scenic spots to him.
This is proper tourism and it is a VIP service.
? ? ?
In the crowd, the great wizard's eyes widened and he realized something was wrong. Previously, he was focused on solving the puzzles and did not pay attention to the relationship between the Fateweaver and the Savior.
The Primarch and Savior of Hope of the Empire was in the Crystal Maze, as if he was in his own territory.
And a famous fateweaver for company?
This is the realm of chaos!
He suddenly felt that the world was changing a little too fast, or that he had been in the maze for too long, and some situations had changed dramatically?
The great wizard is a little confused. After all, he is good at witchcraft and occult research, not intrigues.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind like lightning, and he screamed loudly: "You...you, how can you solve the puzzle so quickly?"
The great wizard was in disbelief, and the hand holding the staff was trembling, as if he had discovered the most incredible thing in the galaxy.
Could it be that this primarch has as much knowledge as the Lord of Steel Perturabo and his former genetic father, the Red King Magnus?
That's absolutely impossible!
According to the known information, the savior showed almost no knowledge and wisdom, and was not even as good as the most ordinary scholar.
What's more, even he, the genius among geniuses among wizards, took thousands of years to get here.
How could the Savior possibly pass through so many golden doors alone? !
The great wizard was stunned.
He thought of something and became serious, thinking to himself: "Perhaps this savior and Chaos Predator has been hiding his strength. What our Black Legion has to face... is a more terrifying enemy!"
"What?"
When Ron heard what the great wizard said, he turned around and said, "What kind of puzzle can you solve? It's easy to get in."
"impossible……"
The great wizard took a deep breath: "No one can enter the gate without solving the riddle. That is an absolutely unchangeable rule.
You can't deny and hide your wisdom anymore, just admit it! "
He insisted that the Saviors were retaining their strength.
"Pilgrim, you must answer a question..."
At this time, the huge golden face cast its sights on the savior in the center of the platform.
As the crowd was driven away, he stood alone.
Therefore, he got the priority to solve the puzzle.
Immediately afterwards, the golden face told an obscure riddle.
The great wizard listened and found that this puzzle was as complex as his own.
There is no idea of a solution at all.
He stared at the savior, wanting to know how he could solve the riddle.
However, the savior didn't seem to even understand the title. He looked confused and was simply in a daze.
"The savior is here, there's no way he can't understand the question, right?"
This scene made the great wizard feel a little confused.
Dong dong dong——
"Brother Guardian..."
In everyone's sight, Balu, the Tzeentch Demon Chicken Thief Fate Weaver, ran up to the huge golden face, looking a little sneaky.
He leaned close to the ear of the golden face, as if whispering, but all the sounds came out:
"These are the distinguished guests invited by the Lord of Changes. They must arrive at the library as soon as possible. Do you understand?"
The golden face frowned and lowered his voice: "Our duty is to guard the door. We must solve the riddle before we can enter. Those are the rules, as eternal as the crystal maze..."
"The Lord of All Changes, after this incident, brother, I will make up a plan to solve your vacation problem..."
Balu and the Golden Face conspired loudly, sending some messages from time to time, as if they were discussing something.
After that, the golden face got the promised benefits, and showed a "cover it on me" look. Then he looked at the savior and asked a new question:
"1+1=?"
ah? ? ?
After the great wizard heard this riddle, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Is this a puzzle? !
That was the first time in thousands of years that he encountered something that completely challenged his own understanding.
Ron looked like he was listening to the question carefully, and then gave the answer without thinking:
"The answer is...3!"
Rumble~
When the giant golden face heard this answer, the whole door shook, and he was a little shocked for a moment.
He was silent for a while and took a deep breath: "Exactly... the correct answer..."
Then, with a loud rumbling sound, the portal to the next passage opened.
This golden door, which trapped countless intelligent beings, was just opened to the savior.
"This...is this okay?!"
The great wizard was trembling all over and could hardly hold his staff. At this moment, his world view collapsed.
If the savior can enter so easily, what do my thousands of years of desire and painstaking efforts mean?
For that knowledge.
He devoted almost his entire life to thinking and learning all the time, even betraying the Human Empire, escaping into the Eye of Terror, and becoming a member of the Black Legion!
"Shadow, this is shady, unfair!"
The great wizard collapsed a little and shouted towards the golden gate, feeling extremely aggrieved.
To this being, everything in front of him was like a bicycle that he had never been willing to ride and carefully maintained, and was being kicked hard by others.
The secrets of knowledge and the eternal and unchangeable rules were blatantly trampled on.
Thousands of years of hard work have turned into a complete joke.
This made him unbearable.
But these words are particularly ridiculous in the realm of Tzeentch.
Not only the great wizard, but other pilgrims hungry for knowledge also protested.
"Wrong answer, wrong answer, totally wrong answer!"
Seeing that a pilgrim dared to challenge him, the giant golden man's face turned red, and smoke came out of his mouth and nose: "You have disturbed the order and have lost the qualification to answer.
You will be expelled! "
In an instant, several eyeball-covered tentacles stretched out from the abyss below the platform and wrapped around all the protesters.
Leaving them no room to struggle.
After that, one protester after another was expelled from this chaotic realm.
Only the great wizard was struggling to hold on.
"No, passage guardian, please forgive me for my unreasonable offense..."
Tears could be seen faintly in the cloudy eyes of the great wizard. He was completely panicked and did not want his life-long pursuit to be ruined.
Even more unwilling to lose the alluring knowledge behind the door.
That is simply worse than death!
"I need this person to complete the agreement with Big Blue...the Lord of Change."
Ron looked at this scene and made a slight gesture. Balu understood and immediately negotiated with the guardian.
For a moment, the entangled eyeball tentacles also stopped.
This was within his expectation.
Now that the big blue bird is about to burn its butt, it is particularly important for him to be able to resist Nurgle, which also gives him more room for communication for the time being.
Maybe that's why the big bluebird left.
He didn't want to stay in such an environment where he might be threatened, not even at all.
That could cause Him to lose even more profit.
Ron came to the great wizard Zaraphiston and looked down at him:
"Xiao Zha, you are still too young. There are some things that cannot be done just by hard work and hard work. You also have to deal with the world..."
In the realm of the Big Blue Bird, how can one foolishly follow the rules? The existence itself is a capricious and unruly collection.
If you follow His rules, you will most likely be played to death.
Of course, rules can be broken, but not everyone can break them.
Just like these pilgrims and Tzeentch followers.
They have no qualifications to destroy, so they can only follow the rules and spend hundreds or thousands of years seeking this desired knowledge.
“Have you ever heard the saying, choice outweighs effort.”
Ron stretched out his hand to the great wizard and said, "You have no future following that guy Abaddon.
Maybe you can make new choices.
For example, if you follow a truly powerful original body, you will have the opportunity to follow him into the library with infinite knowledge and receive that gift..."
He just started digging with his hoe.
Now I need high-level wizards to deal with the dark creations of the subspace, such as the corrupting machines made by the great moth Mortalion.
That is also one of the keys to suppressing the plague war.
"I will not betray..."
The great wizard lowered his head, as if unwilling to accept the olive branch offered by the savior.
But Ron saw the hesitation in the other person's expression and gave an ultimatum: "You only have one chance to answer, yes or no!"
He waited quietly for a few seconds, then turned and left without waiting for the other party's response.
But at the moment he turned around, the great wizard's depressed voice came: "Chaos Predator, I...I am willing to follow you..."
Ron stopped and stretched out his hand to pull the great wizard up with a gentle smile:
"Xiao Zha, you made a right choice."
He knew that this guy couldn't resist the temptation of that knowledge, and even said that no pilgrim here could refuse.
Later, the Archmage used sorcerous rituals to offer his loyalty, and more secrets about the Black Legion and the Warmaster of Chaos.
Although this does not guarantee that the other party will not betray again, at least Abaddon's side cannot stay any longer.
Ron wasn't worried about it either.
When this guy sneaks away to the Black Abyss Star according to the agreement, he will naturally accept the blessing of darkness and get stronger restrictions.
The chief wizard of the Chaos Warmaster and one of the most important figures in the Black Legion, Zaraphiston, became the savior's subordinate.
It can be regarded as an unexpected and important gain.
That will bring unimaginable benefits, and the strength of the Legion of Terror will further increase.
"Alas, I regret it..."
Ron felt a little bit reluctant. He had been staring at Lao Dun and plucking him all this time.
He was almost plucking him bald.
The great wizard stared at the golden door, with some desire and prayer: "Savior, are you..."
"Small problem, they are all family members."
Ron patted the great wizard on the shoulder, looked at Baru and the guardian: "This is the person I want, you can do it..."
Not long after.
The huge golden face showed a kind smile and asked a very simple riddle again.
The great wizard trembled and gave the answer, and the sixth golden door opened.
The sixth wisdom door that he had challenged for hundreds of years was opened so easily, and the subsequent doors were the same.
The road to knowledge will be smooth all the way!
Everything that he had been thinking about day and night for thousands of years, the infinite and wonderful knowledge, was just placed in front of him, and the price he paid.
Just a loyalty.
The Great Wizard looked at the back of the Savior, and there was a touch of emotion in his cloudy eyes. He couldn't help but have an idea:
"I didn't follow the wrong person. Praise the Savior, the Chaos Plunderer!"
Afterwards, Ron took the All-Change Healer and the Great Wizard, and continued to move forward under the guidance of Baru and other Chaos beings.
They will arrive at the library and get the answers and knowledge they want.
Ron thought:
"Hiss~ This is a rare opportunity. I don't know if I can take it away..."
That library is so mysterious and extremely precious. Now that I'm here, I won't get more.
Wouldn't it be a loss?
