Industrial Cthulhu, starting from the island lord

Chapter 93 He is an Outer God! (First Order)
Xius immediately controlled his body, remained motionless, and didn't even open his eyes.

He squinted his eyes slightly, and a little bit of light from outside came in. There was light here, and it was very bright.

Where is this? He was released?
In an instant, all kinds of complicated thoughts emerged in his mind, but Zeus could only suppress them forcibly and did not move at all, just like an empty body.

Don't rush to investigate, he can pretend
"It worked! It worked!"

"The evil god has arrived!"

"Great, everything went well, we are saved!"

"As expected of the Chief, he actually allowed the Lord of Moths to descend."

Xius's heart moved.

The Moth Lord? Is this the original evil god within this body?
Xiu Si thought about it carefully for a long time, and it seemed that this had nothing to do with the Candlelight Society, although he couldn't remember the name of the god of the Candlelight Society.

So they are really cultists?
Oh no, it’s not that Candlelight can fish, there is really someone in the territory who is summoning the evil god!

This is troublesome. The Candlelight Society must be notified immediately, and the Banshees must also be prepared to take action.

Who knows what these cultists are up to. Now that they have summoned an evil god, they might blow Caster up into the sky next!
Xius wanted to return just like that, but suddenly paused.

Wait, am I not the evil god they summoned now?

So, is it possible to explore the information?
Cultists wouldn't take the initiative to harm their gods, right?

Besides, what does it matter if I'm hurt? This body is already discarded. The worst that can happen is that I die again.

Thinking of this, Zeus opened his eyes openly.

There was fire, fire that almost reached the sky, and he was in front of a huge bonfire.

It's night time. Aren't they afraid of being discovered by lighting such a large fire? It must be quite far away from the crowd.

I looked around and found that the place was very desolate. I didn't see the sea and had no idea where it was exactly.

Zeus breathed a sigh of relief. It was better to stay away from the crowd. Even if they tried to commit suicide, at most they would die themselves and would not bring harm to the other residents on the island.

——It should be on the island, right?

He looked down at the ground, which was covered with various complex patterns. He didn't know what they were used for. Perhaps they were used to summon evil gods.

This evil god in the shell
Thinking about it this way, could it be that the worker Zeus in the palace who was still looking around was the evil god?

嘶

Did he purify an evil god today?
No, no way! Is he that weak? And that evil god doesn't look very smart either, he can't even react.

Is there such a weak evil god?
The corner of Zeus's eye twitched, and he looked at the cultists around him.

They all wore loose red cloaks - perhaps too loose, as the corners of the cloaks dragged on the ground, causing sparks to form when they moved.

Mars?

Zeus' eyes slowly widened, and he found that the corners of these people's clothes were burning at an extremely slow speed, and it was obvious that they were not normal flames.

There are so many people, are they all extraordinary people?
Zeus swallowed his saliva. If these were all extraordinary people, then Caster would be in real trouble. He couldn't tell how many of these people there were at the moment, but if he faced the Banshee, even if he could win, it would be a miserable victory.

Zeus gradually became nervous, and so did the cultist in the red cloak opposite him.

This group of people were originally standing there between the lines on the ground, facing the campfire in the middle, not knowing what they were doing.

They were all stunned when they saw Xius stand up.

"How could it be an evil god?"

"That shouldn't be the case. How could the evil god do that?"

Zeus shouted, "Are you the ones summoning the evil god?!" The cultists in red cloaks all took a step back, looked at each other, and finally looked at a slightly shorter figure in the front.

The person was obviously hesitant, probably realizing something was wrong. She asked tentatively, "Are you the evil god?"

Hughes: "What are you doing?"

The man in red: "Are you the Lord of the Moth?"

Zeus and the man in red fell silent at the same time, both sides feeling the other's vigilance.

No, there was no way to communicate this way. How could these cultists be so devout in their faith? He had already entered the body of the evil god, and they still refused to reveal any information.

Aren’t they said that cultists are not very smart?
Xius pursed his lips and spoke in a calmer tone.

"I am not a goddess."

He could indeed pretend to be a god to obtain information, but after thinking it over he decided not to do so.

For some reason, he always felt uneasy in his heart. These cultists were not right. Pretending to be gods might not be a good idea.
The people in front of him were all cultists who knew much more about the evil god than he did, and they would be easily exposed. These were secondary.

The main reason is that these cultists are really weird.

Their gods came back to life and stood up to ask them questions, but not only did no fanatics come up to kowtow to them, but their faces were full of vigilance, as if they were ready to fight if they disagreed.

Damn, are you still a cultist?
Thinking of this, Xiusi suddenly thought of another point.

What did these cultists just call him?

Evil god.

There is indeed no problem with this. This body is full of pollution and it is indeed an evil god. Zeus also thinks so.

But aren't they cultists? How could a cultist call their god an evil god? Or an evil god summoned by themselves?
The woman opposite didn't say anything, but suddenly raised her hand.

In Zeus's blind spot, a dark shadow rushed towards him at an extremely fast speed. Before he could react, he was firmly restrained in place by a pair of iron-like arms.

Zeus was startled, but after he came to his senses, he stopped struggling. He had no intention of keeping this body at all. It was enough for him to get some information out of it.

Besides, he is not even a transcendent, so there is no point in struggling.

The most important thing now is to have a basic understanding of these cultists and find out how many extraordinary people there are among them, so that even if they conflict with Caster, they will not suffer too much.

Just as Hughes was about to speak, he caught a glimpse of the figure that was controlling him.

He recognized this man—

"Brother Keschi?"

His mouth gradually opened wider, and then as if he had thought of something, he slowly turned his head and looked at the man in red who was closest to him.

Under the wide cloak, in the light of the fire, was another familiar face.

"Sister Chloe!?"

Hughes froze in place.

The fire was still burning, and the charred wood crackled, but the crowd was as silent as death.

"You...you are not the Lord of Moths"

Chloe was stunned for a moment when she heard the evil god in front of her shout her name, then she reacted and yelled at Keschi, "Purify immediately! Quick!"

Her eyes were filled with fear and her voice trembled, but she did not hesitate.

"He is an Outer God! The Transcendent and I will hold him back together. The other believers, go inform the overlord here! He just summoned an evil god. Only he can deal with the Outer God!"
