Question, Understand, Become a Holy Lord

After this incident, Nyarlathotep finally became impatient. After questioning Yog-Sothoth several times but receiving no response, he realized that the game played by Yog-Sothoth was much bigger than he had imagined.

It can even be said that Yog-Sothoth's original target from the very beginning was Shub-Niggurath, who was also one of the three pillars of deity. However, Nyarlathotep was completely unaware of this and even happily played a war game with Yog-Sothoth.

After Shub-Niggurath, the being that symbolized the "darkness" of Azathoth, completely disappeared from the multiverse, Nyarlathotep finally understood that the war game he thought was was not a game from the beginning, and Yog-Sothoth was serious from the beginning to the end!

And He was foolishly dragged here by such a battlefield disguised as a game, so that the second most important bargaining chip, Shub-Niggurath, easily fell into the hands of Yog-Sothoth, and even His descendants began to disappear in the multiverse.

Even Shub-Niggurath can only be the second most important chip. The most important chip, or the trophy is naturally Him - Nyarlathotep, who symbolizes the "chaos" side of Azathoth.

After gaining control of Shub-Niggurath, Yog-Sothoth not only did not stop the original war game, but instead pushed the game to its climax in one fell swoop. He even personally took action, targeting Nyarlathotep, whose state had not yet been completely transformed.

However, Nyarlathotep is, after all, one of the three pillars of the same status as Yog-Sothoth. Even if he is not fully prepared, Yog-Sothoth cannot easily defeat him.

However, this move by Yog-Sothoth was just a feint, with much ado about nothing. Even the irrational Shab-Niggurath had to spend a lot of time calculating and making arrangements before she could seize the fleeting opportunity and take him down in one fell swoop.

It wasn't even until after the encounter with White Scar that Yog-Sothoth began to consider how to defeat or even kill the other two pillars of gods. He had already begun a long simulation in the distant past, and only after communicating with White Scar did he finally make up his mind.

Although there is the factor of Nyarlathotep as a third party to be considered, it also shows how difficult it is to defeat and capture a being of the same status as oneself. Therefore, Yog-Sothoth never expected from the beginning to be able to capture Nyarlathotep in one fell swoop.

All He wanted to do was to leave an indelible mark on Nyarlathotep, a hunting mark that would allow Him to keep track of Nyarlathotep's movements at any time, eliminate his interference, and eventually slowly create it after dealing with all the other evil gods.

However, in the end, Yog-Sothoth was only half successful. He successfully put his own mark on Nyarlathotep, but that mark could not allow Yog-Sothoth to clearly grasp Nyarlathotep's location, let alone fully grasp His movements.

Nyarlathotep even used the mark set by Yog-Sothoth to interfere with Him, dividing his own existence into countless parts. Each clone carried a mark of varying sizes, forcing Yog-Sothoth to devote an equal amount of energy to keep an eye on all the movements of Nyarlathotep.

If it was just to monitor ordinary life or general Old Gods and Outer Gods, then even if Yog-Sothoth, with his all-famous name, continued to split each of his consciousness into equal parts on the current basis, it would not be a burden at all.

However, if the object of surveillance and attention is replaced with Nyarlathotep, the embodiment of "chaos", the situation is quite different. As the embodiment of Azathoth's "chaos", Nyarlathotep's greatest characteristic is disorder and chaos, which makes it extremely difficult for Yog-Sothoth to make normal predictions and calculations of its behavior. It also means that Yog-Sothoth must devote enough energy to grasp the movements and intentions of each of His clones.

But fortunately, Nyarlathotep is not complete "chaos". He is essentially the incarnation of "chaos" relying on the existence of Azathoth, and he also serves as the messenger of Azathoth.

No matter how chaotic and disordered his behavior and logic were, as long as he firmly grasped this most core key point, even if it was very difficult, Yog-Sothoth could still analyze and predict his behavior to a certain extent. That was why he was able to take Shub-Niggurath into his hands when he was not paying attention.

However, this is only a partial calculation and speculation. If Yog-Sothoth could calculate Nyarlathotep's behavior and intentions almost accurately, then there would be no concept of the Three Pillars in the Cthulhu mythology, and Yog-Sothoth would occupy an absolute dominant position.

Shub-Niggurath's life is all about reproduction and more reproduction. Her behavior pattern is so simple that it does not need to be calculated at all. However, Nyarlathotep's nature of "chaos" makes it difficult for Yog-Sothoth to calculate him.

Therefore, these two can be called the Three Pillars of God together with Yog-Sothoth, who is known as omniscient and omnipotent, the embodiment of rationality and skilled in calculation and deduction.

And Yog-Sothoth finally proved with facts that even with the same status and power, the one who will win in the end is the one with more rationality and wisdom, so He can achieve the current results.

Although Nyarlathotep's actions caused Yog-Sothoth a lot of trouble, all of this was still under His control.

Nyarlathotep's clone is not just an ordinary incarnation, but he has completely divided his own power into the same number of parts as his clones. Otherwise, he would not be able to escape the eyes of Yog-Sothoth.

Nyarlathotep, whose power and existence have been divided into countless parts, can create more chaos and silently accumulate strength for counterattack, and the power of each clone is comparable to that of an ordinary Outer God.

But for Yog-Sothoth, this meant that Nyarlathotep completely gave up all other old gods and outer gods, and placed all his hopes on himself, which also made it easier for Yog-Sothoth to hunt down other evil gods.

So the battle situation between the two sides became that Yog-Sothoth himself sat in the center, keeping an eye on Nyarlathotep who might cause trouble at any time, and sent out his followers and some of his descendants on his side to continue hunting the evil god.

However, Nyarlathotep is no pushover. Even though the situation is now in the hands of Yog-Sothoth, he is still able to do a lot of things under the surveillance of Yog-Sothoth, and even killed some of Yog-Sothoth's subordinates.

In order to deal with this situation and improve the efficiency of the pursuit, the existence of the main god space was imprinted in the eyes of Yog-Sothoth. The transmission with his own power would make Nyarlathotep alert and respond in advance, so that the evil gods on that side could be prepared to fight the enemy.

This problem can be avoided well by deploying personnel through the main god space. Even if Nyarlathotep noticed this fact in time, he could not intervene too much under the care of Yog-Sothoth. He could only watch his own evil gods disappear one by one, which greatly reduced his idea of delaying time.

This is also the origin of the current Reincarnation Square.

Chapter 293 The Final Result of the Dragon World

It is obvious that everything Yog-Sothoth did was related to Azathoth. He did not want Azathoth to be awakened from his slumber so that his existence would return to the starting point and become a part of Azathoth again.

Baihen was not worried at all about what Yog-Sothoth could do to him. If Yog-Sothoth could do it, he would not have come to Baihen for negotiation or even begging. Even if He was the most rational Outer God, He was still an Outer God. Life was nothing more than a tiny thing like dust to Him.

A being like Yog-Sothoth would never let meaningless emotions influence his decision. If He was confident that He could get rid of the White Scar relatively "easily" like directly arresting Shub-Niggurath and intimidating Nyarlathotep, He would never put himself at the negotiating table and hand over the handle and initiative to the White Scar.

Since Baihen's approach is blocked, his only choice is to start with Azathoth himself, making it impossible for him to wake up when Baihen touches the power that overlaps with him, or even let him stay asleep like this forever and never wake up again.

If Yog-Sothoth can really achieve that, then Azathoth, the primordial chaos in the Cthulhu mythology, the origin of all things, will completely change from the concept of life or gods to a huge phenomenon entrenched in the multiverse, and the Cthulhu mythology system will become a mere name.

Although Azathoth is now called the "blind and foolish" god, he does not act solely on instinct or in obedience to his own authority. The gods of the Cthulhu mythology and some of his direct incarnations, in a sense, act as part of his rationality, allowing Azathoth to be regarded as an independent life.

Once Yog-Sothoth cuts off all the tentacles of Azathoth that emanate from his own dreams, including the old gods and evil gods including the other two pillars, it will undoubtedly push Azathoth towards the fact that he will sleep in eternal darkness.

He himself will also begin to fall from a complete life to a state of phenomenal life, until one day in the future he will completely become a natural phenomenon in the multiverse - and this is exactly one of the outcomes that Bai Hen is trying to avoid by slowing down his own growth rate.

But this alone is obviously not enough. Although the entire Cthulhu mythology, including the three pillars, were all born based on the dream of the great existence Azathoth and are all extensions of His power, this does not mean that by integrating all the powers of the evil gods together, a brand new Azathoth can be born. If things could be that simple, Yog-Sothoth would not have appeared in front of Baihen so easily.

The extension of power is just an extension after all, not to mention that the extension of these powers is the product of the distortion of Azathoth's dream. Even if we don't consider what height can be reached after all the powers are integrated, it is still unknown whether these powers can be successfully integrated into one.

Therefore, Yog-Sothoth's plan to capture all the Outer Gods and Old Gods except Himself must be only the first step. As for the second and even the third steps, Bai Hen doesn't know what He wants to do for the time being. After all, he is not the one who is anxious now. Why should he waste his precious brain cells thinking about the problem from Yog-Sothoth's perspective? Isn't this just being idle?

Although Baihen seems to be quite idle, as he has time to come to the Samsara Square to participate in the annual celebration when Yog-Sothoth is still battling wits and courage with Nyarlathotep and cannot extricate himself, but in fact, after meeting Yog-Sothoth that day, Baihen has adjusted his growth trajectory to prepare for a possible head-on conflict with Azathoth one day.

But there is one thing that Baihen is certain of, and that is that the gift that Yog-Sothoth mentioned at the end of their last meeting must be related to his future plans, and there is a high probability that Baihen is still an indispensable part of his plan.

Bai Hen had no objection to this. Mutual benefit was an important component of interpersonal relationships. If Yog-Sothoth thought that His gift was enough to make Bai Hen participate in His plan, then Bai Hen would be even more looking forward to what gift He prepared for him.

It can't be that she will turn into a beautiful girl wearing JK clothes and seduce herself, right?

It is enough to have only one Origin Style for this kind of character, and the Origin Style was born based on the existence of Ryougi Shiki. Otherwise, if you just turn a random thing with an unknown identity into a beautiful girl, can you expect Baihen to become nicer to it?

The big joke of slipping the world!

However, it is too early to start thinking about these things now. The battle between Yog-Sothoth and Nyarlathotep is destined to be a long tug-of-war and it will never be over in a short time.

If nothing unexpected happens...

"Isn't this the boss? Long time no see. Are there any interesting new games recently?" A male voice that sounded like he had just emerged from the voice change period interrupted the conversation between Bai Hen and Othinus and sounded behind them.

"Lu Mingze and Lu Mingfei, it's been a long time since we last met." Bai Hen turned around and responded as he looked at the two brothers whose faces and temperaments were becoming more and more similar.

"Boss, is this your first time here, or is this actually your playground? And who is this?" Lu Mingze started asking questions out of habit, and looked at Othinus who was standing next to Bai Hen with some curiosity.

"It's indeed my first time here, and this place was not built by me. Don't think too much about it. I'm not interested in interfering here for the time being." Bai Hen looked at the two brothers in front of him. Lu Mingze was dressed like a sunny and cheerful high school student, while Lu Mingfei's spirit had changed significantly when Bai Hen left the dragon world.

After Bai Hen left, with no external interference or only Lu Mingze interfering, Lu Mingfei began to move closer to Lu Mingze in every aspect, who was a little too controlling of his younger brother. But it must be said that this is much better than letting Lu Mingfei, a guy who essentially can't get rid of his bad boy temperament, grow up wildly.

"But this one... you can call her Odin." Baihen pointed at Othinus with a happy smile on his face.

"Odin?!" As expected, even though a long time had passed since the death of Odin in the Dragon World, Lu Mingze, the vengeful guy, still reacted subconsciously after hearing the name.

"It turns out that there are female Odins in other worlds?" But the next moment Lu Mingze realized that this Odin was not that Odin, and said in a subtle tone.

The two brothers had not been in the Reincarnation Square for too long. Even though they had learned about many wonderful and subtle coincidences in the multiverse, they were still shocked to suddenly face Odin from another world, Odin who was standing next to Baihen, and a female Odin.

Speaking of which, Odin from their world had been dormant in the human world for such a long time. Could it be that he had also lived as a woman or even married a mixed-race person? After a brief shock, Lu Mingfei's thoughts subconsciously began to slip.

Even though his appearance, behavior and temperament have changed greatly over the years, his nature of loving to complain has not changed. However, he is now better at burying all the nonsense in his heart and not revealing any flaws in his appearance.

Lu Mingfei did not recognize Othinus's identity. Although he was a otaku who loved the two-dimensional world and had watched classic animation works such as "A Certain Magical Index" and "A Certain Unscientific Railgun", he had read very little about the original novels.

Not to mention that Othinus's appearance and temperament at this moment are very different from the image in the original novel illustrations. The only similarity is the unchanging single eye patch.

"Odin in other worlds is not a creature like a dragon. The mythology and development of your world are completely driven by dragons and hybrids. What's more, there are the two world trees that allow you two to run around. If you really want to investigate, your world is an outlier." Bai Hen complained mercilessly.

"Now that you mention it, it seems that our world is indeed strange..." Lu Mingfei couldn't help scratching his head and complaining. In fact, before he set foot in the world of dragons and hybrids, the education he received was no different from that of similar worlds in other eras. Therefore, he deeply resonated with what Bai Hen said.

"World Tree?" After hearing Bai Hen's introduction to the Lu brothers, Othinus looked at Lu Mingfei and the others with some curiosity with her one eye. Just as Bai Hen said, this was the first time she had seen a world tree that was so lively and running around.

However, Othinus still felt something was strange. Although she was able to glimpse a hint of the World Tree from the latent power in Lu Mingfei and Lu Mingze after Bai Hen pointed it out, it was only a hint. Whether in terms of quantity or quality, the brothers did not look like the World Tree that could carry the world.

"Don't look at them like that. Even though they are world trees, they are just underdeveloped or they didn't have time to develop at all. It's normal that you didn't think in that direction at first." Bai Hen didn't shy away from it and revealed what he had done in front of Lu Mingze and Lu Mingfei.

"All their original nutrients were intercepted by me. The hairpin on your head was made from my own Tree of Ages, which I cultivated using the intercepted nutrients." Bai Hen pointed to the wooden hairpin that had obviously lost its function but was still pinned on Othinus' head.

"You actually admitted it just like that..." A complicated expression flashed across Lu Mingze's face when he heard that. After all, it was one thing that belonged to him being stolen. Bai Hen had never concealed his actions. Combined with the ending on the day Nidhogg woke up, Lu Mingze had guessed it a long time ago.

However, as a victim, he still felt a little strange when Bai Hen said it in front of him. He originally thought that this kind of thing would become a tacit understanding between both parties and would just pass.

Lu Mingze straightened his face and thanked Bai Hen seriously: "But it is also thanks to you that my brother and I can coexist in this world like we do now. Thank you again."

"See, he wants to thank us!" Bai Hen pointed at Lu Mingze and said proudly to Othinus.

"Yes, yes, yes~" Othinus was also quite helpless. He guessed in his heart that Bai Hen must have done some things that made people love and hate him in the world of the two world tree brothers who could run and jump but were underdeveloped.

“But it’s not entirely true that we are stunted due to lack of nutrition.” Lu Mingze tapped Lu Mingfei on the waist and hinted to Bai Hen.

"Isn't it just that almost all the strength is integrated into the W armor? Can this change the fact that you are underdeveloped?" Bai Hen said unhappily, which also made Lu Mingze's expression freeze.

The reason why there is so little World Tree power remaining in Lu Mingfei and Lu Mingze's bodies is naturally not just because Bai Hen intercepted all the nutrients supplied to the World Tree in the last reincarnation.

Moreover, after the battle of Nidhogg, the two of them gradually integrated all the power of both sides into the W Armor, intending to completely sever their connection with the identity of the World Tree, purify the two of them with the power of the Knight Armor, and finally welcome a new life as Kamen Rider W.

Now their process has come to the final stage. Apart from the last trace of the World Tree power in their bodies that can prove their former identities, the two of them are no different from ordinary half-bloods. This is also the fundamental reason why Othinus did not see through their identities at the first time.

"The current Kamen Rider W is very powerful, not weaker than the final result you left in our world - the Yatales Armor!" Lu Mingfei said with some pride. Thanks to the efforts of him and Lu Mingze, the W Knight Armor has undergone considerable changes over the years.

"The final result?" Bai Hen read the word, and suddenly frowned, realizing that he seemed to have forgotten something.

He did leave a final result that satisfied him in the Dragon World, but it definitely was not the Yatales Armor. After all, it was just a game prop created just to create the Desire Grand Prix.

At the beginning, he imitated Azuma's Kamen Rider and created dragon blood and dragon soul armor according to the characteristics of the dragon world. He even perfectly replicated Yatales and Kamen Rider W according to the nature of their power. He did feel a sense of accomplishment, but this sense of accomplishment was not lasting and was only a short-lived novelty.

So what was my final result?

Bai Hen suddenly remembered that it was the cage he had built for a certain guy not long after he first came to the dragon world - the Herzog Ecosphere!

Chapter 294: Nyarlathotep's Surprise

Dragon World, Japan.

Eight thousand meters thick sea water completely isolates the abyss on the seabed from the rest of the world. Even if they are still in the same world, the bottom is less than one kilometer away from the mantle layer. The liquid rock in the mantle layer flows like a flaming river, and almost no life can survive there. It is the loneliest hatchery in the world.

The deep sea separated by the sea water seems to make people feel like they are in another strange and unfamiliar space. In this abyss that humans can hardly set foot in, surrounding the hatchery that was once hidden here, the power of dragon blood has allowed the creatures here to miraculously build a delicate and balanced biosphere.

All kinds of dragon-blood creatures hunt, prey, and reproduce here. They are all born in this hatchery containing dragon fetal blood. Their unique body structure and blood make it impossible for them to leave this warm cradle for long. This place is like an invisible prison that locks these powerful dragon-blood creatures firmly in place, passing on from generation to generation in this small but healthy ecosystem.

Moreover, all creatures in the ecosystem have a common consciousness in their minds - Jung von Herzog, this ambitious man who helped Bai Hen achieve alternative immortality because Bai Hen disliked him.

Time has long lost its meaning to Jung von Herzog. In this closed ecosystem, he enjoys the "reward" given to him by the White Trace, repeating the process of self-hunting, self-feeding, and self-reproduction over and over again.

All living things in this ecosystem contain fragments of Herzog's consciousness, from the krill that are the most basic food to maintain this ecosystem to the top predators in this ecosystem, the ghost-toothed vipers that contain dragon blood.

Herzog's consciousness was dispersed by Baihen in these creatures. He shared all his senses with them but was unable to control their bodies. He could only passively endure the initial novelty brought to him by these cute little lives, and the nightmare-like experience that he has not yet gotten used to.

Herzog wanted to commit suicide, but he didn't even have a controllable body to commit suicide with. Herzog wanted to give up himself and integrate his consciousness into this group of uncivilized lives to complete an alternative self-destruction. However, Baihen ensured that after each death, Herzog could greet the next life journey with a new mental outlook, making his idea a luxury.

Herzog didn't know how many parts his consciousness was divided into. Millions? Tens of millions? Even hundreds of millions? He really couldn't and didn't have the energy to judge such things.

In this small ecosystem, the simple and short life of the krill that were dying and being born in large numbers at any time occupied most of his consciousness. Countless perspectives appeared simultaneously in his common consciousness that connected all Herzogs, making him experience the despair of witnessing something indescribable at all times.

In such a desperate and endless nightmare, the only thing Herzog could do was to pray. Whether it was God, Satan, or the Black Emperor who was destined to destroy the world, they all became the objects of his prayers - obviously, no one would come here to tell him the news of Nidhogg's death.

He simply used his few remaining self-consciousness to pray wholeheartedly, praying that the world would be destroyed and he could be liberated in the destroyed world; or praying that he could escape from this desperate hell and take revenge on the guy who suddenly appeared and deprived him of everything, making him experience this humiliation and pain!

Herzog prayed day after day, not changing his mind at all as time passed - because this was the only thing he could do. If he couldn't even pray, Herzog didn't believe how he would get through those long periods of darkness when he could neither sink nor die.

One day, a miracle or the inevitable "salvation" finally appeared in front of Herzog. He looked at the strange figure that quietly appeared in this dragon blood ecosystem where not only humans could not set foot, but even other deep-sea creatures could not integrate into.

The figure in the yellow robe, even in the deep sea eight thousand meters below, the strange yet eye-catching yellow robe on his body was still fluttering in its own rhythm, as if to the owner of the yellow robe this was not the deep sea, but a beach with a breeze.

Herzog stared at this strange yet sacred figure in ecstasy. The unprecedented strong will even made all the lives in this dragon blood ecosystem turn their "eyes" at the same time, looking at him with fanatical eyes and expectation.

The figure in yellow clothes raised his head slightly, and his deep eyes hidden under the yellow robe seemed to look at the small ghost-toothed viper in front of him with some surprise, as if he was considering something.

Herzog knew that this unknown great being was looking at him, and it could only be him who existed in the consciousness of all living things here - Jung von Herzog!

"He seemed to say something. It was a special language that Herzog had never heard of or known. Although he could not understand what the great being in front of him was saying, Herzog believed that the dragon language and spirit words of the dragon clan were completely incomparable to these languages.

This is the true word of God!

It is a blasphemous whisper and the ultimate pursuit of all life!

Herzog subconsciously thought so in his heart and firmly believed it.

Reality did not disappoint Herzog's firm hope. With the whispers of the great being in the yellow robe, the entire dragon ecosystem began to collapse instantly. This small and stable ecosystem, which had lasted for who knows how long and might even last until the destruction of the world, came to an end prematurely.

The almost whispering words coming from the mouth of the great being hidden under the yellow robe echoed in the ears of every life in this ecosystem, and also continued to echo in the ears of every Herzog.

The subtle murmur grew louder and clearer in Herzog's consciousness, and finally turned into a huge sound wave like thunder exploding in his ears, making Herzog unable to help but start shouting along with the sound.

"￥*,!-&!*#%!" Herzog finally took control of the bodies of all living creatures that contained fragments of his consciousness. Regardless of whether they had the organs and structures to cause the occurrence, all living creatures shouted out the blasphemous words that echoed in Herzog's heart.

In this isolated deep sea, under the reflection of the underwater volcano, a group of deep-sea creatures of different races and shapes surrounded the strange figure in yellow clothes, constantly chanting unknown and sacred blasphemous words.

Their flesh and blood collapsed bit by bit amidst the roars and shouts that they had done with all their might. Flesh, blood, consciousness and even souls gathered towards the ghost-toothed viper that the yellow-clothed master had originally set his eyes on, surging and madly infused into its body.

Naturally, this tiny ghost-toothed viper could not bear so much flesh and blood and soul, so it was burst in an instant by the flesh and blood that was poured into its body without restraint. It also turned into a pool of flesh and blood and merged with it, irrigating the next body.

One after another, the dragon-blood creatures were blown up by the unrestrained feeding, and their flesh and blood merged with the previous flesh and blood without any waste, continuing to blow up more creatures, until all the creatures, including the youngest krill, were transformed into a pool of fuzzy flesh balls that were fused with the limbs of various deep-sea creatures.

At this moment, a huge figure violently broke through the sea water and rushed towards the disgusting mass of flesh and blood with great momentum - it was a blue whale infected with dragon blood, a dragon blood blue whale that was hundreds of meters long.
