Chapter 527: Chapter 527
When uttering those four words, Baiyu felt a tremor and unease deep in his heart.
A deity already confirmed, who can still descend with divine power today, respond to the sacrifices of believers, possessing terrifying strength.
Baiyu was uncertain whether it was the Evil God.
Because he seemed never to have heard any news of a great casualty caused by Red Cup.
It is also possible that it was concealed.
As the god worshipped in Eternal Sleep City, Red Cup’s strength is beyond question.
The skeleton before him.
Is clearly a tool for speaking.
"No, you are mistaken.
The Great Mother does not have the time to handle this matter personally, but She has already taken notice of your presence.
I am Her servant, her name-bearer, and foremost believer.
You may call me Yisu, the Immortal."
The skeleton spoke again.
Baiyu’s knowledge of deities was fleeting, only heard of through the Rain Master.
Documents recording deities are also strictly regulated.
Not to mention ordinary people.
Even the top officials of the Imperial find it difficult to access.
It is a form of control, but also protection.
Preventing some from glimpsing the river of history, seeking the power of the divine, and thus causing unnecessary dangers.
After a brief digestion, Baiyu asked, "What do you mean by those who cannot see the future?
Why did you come to me, what is your purpose?"
The four others definitely did not encounter this Yisu the Immortal.
Only he was approached.
The other party has a unique reason and undisclosed purpose.
Yisu said, "Those who cannot see the future; this is the Great Mother’s evaluation of you.
Your future is shrouded in mist.
You do not belong to this spacetime.
Of course, there is no need to be tense, historically, people like you have appeared many times.
During the Great Mother’s eternal lifetime.
She has witnessed the decay and rebirth of the world, understanding that when special persons appear, the world undergoes tremendous changes.
After a century of recuperation.
The dark forces have reemerged, pervasive.
Those ancient, deceased gods are eager to revive, seeking to return the world to their control, operating under their established rules.
The second Divine War is imminent.
This time will be fiercer and crueler than the previous ’Battle of Blood Stone’.
More gods might meet their demise.
The Great Mother hopes you can join Her ranks, walk among the people, wearing the crown and wielding the Holy Sword, overcoming obstacles."
Listening to Yisu talk for a long time.
Ultimately, Baiyu understood. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs NovєlFіre.net
Well, so it is about seeking a mercenary, after all?
As for why he was chosen.
Probably due to the "those who cannot see the future" issue?
Baiyu harbors many secrets.
He firmly believes deities are merely mighty creatures.
The other side cannot possibly know the secrets on him, like his Scholar Space, others absolutely cannot know.
Baiyu candidly asked.
Yisu the Immortal issued a crisp laugh, like a lark, "You are the first to refuse the Great Mother’s invitation.
Do you know what you can obtain by becoming Her follower?
Eternal life, ever-healthy body, and endless pleasures.
This is what everyone yearns for.
The Great Mother will not be stingy with Her divine power.
Becoming Her follower is an incredibly lucky and honorable thing."
Baiyu remained unmoved.
He had heard much of this kind of rhetoric in his past life.
Such as the ninety-nine-six blessings, isn’t it the same?
Before seeing actual benefits, he would never take any action.
He remained silent for a moment.
Baiyu raised his head and said, "Though I’m interested, unfortunately, I am already a follower of another deity."
He rolled up his sleeve, revealing the elegant Black Moon Mark beneath his skin.
Baiyu never thought one day he would use the identity of a Black Moon Apostle as a talisman.
Even if Red Cup is strong.
Black Moon, at least, can hold a few rounds, right?
Black Moon has merely gone mad, but not perished.
Madmen are indeed terrifying.
Upon seeing the Black Moon Mark, the once talkative Yisu fell silent for a long time.
She seemed to regain her composure, her laughter somewhat strained, "So Black Moon has already taken action.
However, I just consulted the Great Mother.
She has already responded.
This situation here today, we risked offending the Forest Four Gods to bring about, you should understand our determination.
Black Moon, although the god of light’s inception.
His reason has all but vanished.
Often, he acts on instinct.
His followers have met extremely tragic fates.
The Great Mother holds no grudges against Black Moon, thus She will use divine power to help you sever the connection with Black Moon."
"Are you saying, help me erase the Black Moon Mark, to pledge allegiance to Red Cup?"
If this is truly the case, it spells trouble.
Red Cup is not as easily fooled as Black Moon.
If Baiyu does not borrow Her strength it would be fine, but once under control, he might become a puppet at Her mercy.
Even though the other is a deity.
Baiyu still does not want to be restrained everywhere.
Yisu quickly replied, "No, not erasing the Black Moon Mark.
Black Moon has gone mad, merely unconsciously spreading his power.
You are not really a follower of Black Moon.
The Great Mother permits you to acquire Red Cup’s power, concealed in your body, walking on the earth.
You remain a Black Moon Apostle.
But secretly, you are a follower of the Great Mother.
Once the time is ripe, the Great Mother can even assist you in seizing Black Moon’s authority, making you the true Black Moon!"
This Red Cup is indeed tricky.
Having him be a double agent?
It seems he has little choice but to agree.
"After I become a follower of Red Cup, what do I need to do?"
Yisu replied, "There is no obligatory requirement.
But often, you might face off against enemies of the Great Mother.
Those enemies are naturally ones you can handle.
Mother will treat Her every subject well.
If you agree, I can now grant you the power to walk freely in the Silent Forest.
You will be able to find your companions and know the secrets of the Forest Gods.
But I suggest you not linger in the forest.
Among the Forest Gods, there is one who hates the Great Mother, if discovered, you might get into trouble.
Now make your choice.
My time here is limited.
The strange situation here will eventually be detected by the Forest Gods."
Baiyu gazed at the skeleton, after a flash of deliberation, he quickly made a decision.
