The Magic Empire for 20,000 years

Chapter 242 The Mysterious Man Who Walks with God
In a flash, Elian came up with an emergency strategy: to first fend off the Eye Demons' attacks, but not to directly confront the Great Matriarch. Instead, he would use teleportation, clouds, and other means to cover everyone as they fought and retreated.

After all, the First Mistress only launched the attack on a whim, and seeing everyone retreat, she might not pursue them...

It was clear that the hundreds of bewitching demons were gathering their power and about to unleash a barrage of magical rays.

Suddenly, a sacred and solemn voice emanated from the High Mother's body:

"forget it."

The voice was ancient and deep, majestic and layered, seemingly imbued with an irresistible sacred majesty, like the decree of a god:

"Just a bunch of elves, dwarves and other creatures who happened to come together."

There's no need to worry about them.

“The great matriarch, the creator of all eye demons, the embodiment of the nightmare of the end, has no need to care about these insignificant beings.”

"Let's just do our own thing."

Upon hearing this voice, the First Mistress and the many eye demons around her all lowered their eye sockets, seemingly showing great respect for the owner of the voice.

What's going on here?
Seymour was bewildered.

"Is that Great Matriarch, the Goddess of the Eyes, talking to herself?"

"Wait, that doesn't seem right," King Elf analyzed.

"It's more like something possessing her is speaking."

Elian narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the First Mistress whose gaze had softened again and who had temporarily abandoned her desire to attack.

Who was the person who just spoke?

A supernatural being possessing the Great Mistress?
He actually managed to persuade the First Mistress!?
The fact that the voice could stop the capricious First Mistress from her actions was enough to show that the owner of the voice was of high status, and even the First Mistress had to respect his opinion.

However, judging from the fact that the owner of this voice used honorifics to praise the First Mistress, the speaker's status must have been far inferior to that of the First Mistress.

Could it be that the speaker himself is not a deity on par with the Great Matriarch, but has a powerful backer?
As his thoughts raced, El-Erian came up with a possible conjecture, but he couldn't verify it.

Upon hearing that magnificent, layered, sacred, and solemn voice, the Great Matriarch abandoned the fight and turned back.

The Mother of the Eye Demons, accompanied by numerous Eye Demons, flew towards the eastern sky until she disappeared from everyone's sight.

"It's finally flown away..."

"Thank goodness, it was just a false alarm." Duncan, the little dwarf gentleman, shuddered, still shaken by what he had just witnessed.

We almost angered a powerful and mad god!
I was just participating in an operation to exterminate demons, who knew it would be so dangerous?

"Who exactly is that speaker who is possessing the avatar of the Eye Demon God?" Silver Dragon Frost fell back to the ground, transforming into human form, his expression solemn.

"do not know."

Elian shook his head, and then analyzed the situation using his knowledge as a learned mage:
"However, I can sense that the mysterious being possessing the God of the Eyes seems to have deliberately used supernatural means to slightly change its tone when it speaks."

"In other words, that mysterious being does not want us to hear his original voice."

"In other words, if we heard his original voice, some of us might recognize him!"

Upon hearing Elian's analysis, everyone was stunned.

That voice that just spoke—was it someone in the room who knew that person?

Duncan, the little dwarf, scratched his head:
"This doesn't make sense. Someone who can persuade a powerful god must be no ordinary person. Does any of us know someone so powerful?"

The dwarven high priest Bag also spoke righteously and solemnly:

"Yes."

"The one acting alongside this chaotic and evil abyss god is probably another evil god, or a powerful demon lord of the level of the three giants of the abyss."

"We are all righteous and kind people here. How could we possibly associate with such an evil person?"

After listening to their views, El-Erian also felt that there was some truth to them, and he felt even more that the matter was full of strangeness.

Could it be that...?

After a certain conjecture flashed through his mind, Elian turned to look at the distant eastern sky.

That was the direction in which the Great Matriarch, the Goddess of the Eyes, disappeared. "They flew east..."

El-Erian stated this fact calmly.

Everyone fell silent at the same time.

The East of the Abyss Rift.

Isn't that the direction of Eldoron?

Is the High Priestess heading to Eldoron with a large group of bewitching demons?

Red Dragon Warlock Gret panicked:
"What should we do? Those deformed and terrifying eye demons might be up to no good for Eldoron!"

Is Eldoron about to face another threat from a god?

Moreover, it is an evil being that is more terrifying, more powerful, and more insane and obsessive than Prince Sun!
"unconfirmed."

El-Erian looked grave.

If it were any other abyssal evil god, simply flying eastward wouldn't prove anything.

But the First Mistress is in much greater danger!
As far as Elian knew, this abyssal goddess had a secret identity that even the gods—including herself—were unaware of.

She is the offspring of the Outer Gods.

In the beginning, the multiverse was just a chaotic void, and the "giant wheel" had not yet taken shape.

At that time, the barriers between the universes did not yet exist. More than one Outer God from a distant land noticed this chaos that was brimming with infinite possibilities and left his offspring within it.

This includes that person—

The master of illusions, the lord of fantasy and dreams, the origin of psychic abilities, the creator of mind flayers, the ruler of the fantasy world, and the source of all dreams.

Later, the Twin Serpents of Creation created a multiverse (giant wheel) from the chaos, and the outer planes representing different factions gradually took shape, thus bringing order to the chaos.

The two primordial serpents had almost exhausted their power and fallen from their rank, hiding in Heaven Mountain and the Nine Hells respectively to heal their wounds.

And the gods were born one after another in the new universe.

The "egg" left behind by the Dream Lord also developed and took shape, becoming one of the gods, the Mad Eye Demon God.

The High Priestess created the equally fanatical Bewitching race and cast them into various worlds.

These strange creatures, originating from a distant land, possess the most bizarre method of reproduction—breeding new bewitching beings in dreams.

As far as Elian knew, before the end of the world, the High Mother, though possessing madness from a distant land, did not exhibit any further abnormalities.

He appears to be just an ordinary, powerful evil god.

Even the gods didn't realize that this abyssal evil god was a time bomb buried in the multiverse!

When the war of the end times began, the influence of the distant kingdoms seeped in. The Great Matriarch, due to her own Outer God origins, was dominated and controlled by the Dream Lord and sided with the distant kingdoms.

This god of the eye, as an accomplice of a distant kingdom, killed a large number of plane lords, including the "Seven Heroes of Paradise Mountain" and "Five Lords of Gading," and murdered many gods. He was one of the main culprits behind the disintegration of the resistance forces in multiple planes.

The vast majority of the Beholder race, due to the corruption of distant lands, have become servants of the Outer Gods, destroying the nations of the earth in various worlds, using the [Mind Control Ray] to control and conquer weaker races, and establishing kingdoms subordinate to the Beholders.

From this perspective, both the Eye Demon and the Mind Flayer are servants of the same Outer God, the "Dream Master".

In addition, there are some strange creatures that originated from other Outer Gods.

For example, the creator of the strange creature "Bottom-dwelling Demon Fish"—the ancient evil [Crimson Queen] (Pestkeshsis)—was a descendant of another Outer God.

"These offspring of Outer Gods left in the Great Wheel Universe are time bombs for the Doomsday War; they must be eliminated in advance!"

Elian was lost in thought when another fact came to mind:
Of the Mind Flayer fleet that traversed time and space, at least one ship crashed into the abyss.

The Mind Flayer fleet carries gifts from the seven Outer Gods.

El-Erian immediately had a guess:
"Could it be that the Mind Flayer ship visited the Thousand-Eyed Kingdom on the sixth level of the Abyss and influenced this God of the Eyes in some way?"

Eldoron is still in its early stages of development, and a powerful deity has directly sided with the Outer Gods. The situation is unimaginable!
