Infinite Begins with Giants

Chapter 1577: The gods decided to join forces to strangle

On this day, "God of Justice and Origin Protection" Heim held a plenary meeting in the Pole Star Camp.

The Pole Star Camp, the meeting place of the gods, is also known as the "Conference Hall".

This is the only completely neutral place among many planes. It is not owned by any gods and does not have any native races. If anything, His Majesty AO can barely be regarded as the owner of this place.

Camp Polestar is a small demiplane in the shape of a vast, majestic hall, decorated with towering pillars and opening to a starry sky.

Special portals leading to the realms of all gods in the Toril universe surround this hall, a plane where the gods can communicate and convene in order to deal with certain urgent matters.

Whether it is a meeting between just two gods discussing an alliance, or a meeting involving the entire Faerûnian pantheon, the Pole Star Camp is a safe place for discussion.

The Pole Star Camp exists outside the general Toril universe, and its connection with the star realm is extremely weak. The best way to travel in and out is through special portals. Neither mortals nor gods can set out from the material plane. Reach the Pole Star Camp through the astral realm, because there is no colorful pool leading to this plane in the astral realm.

On this day, hundreds of incarnations of gods and demigods came here through special portals to participate in an important meeting.

"This place hasn't been so lively for a long time. Gee, there are so many people here today."

"Is His Majesty AO about to wake up? Look at Heim, his expression is very interesting."

"Stop joking, why are we here? Isn't it because of the lady of the night?"

As if they had made an appointment, the powerful gods of Faerun would come together after the other middle and low-level gods were seated.

Talos, the god of storms and destruction.

Jergal, the god of death.

Suna, the goddess of love.

The earth goddess Chantia.

Ogma, the god of knowledge.

Selun, the goddess of the moon.

……

The incarnations of the powerful gods appeared one by one and sat in the most eye-catching position in the center of the hall.

The gods held their breath or whispered. They were surprised by the number of gods who came this time. In the past, so-called collective meetings, there had never been so many powerful gods willing to come.

The person presiding over the meeting was Heim, the "god of justice and origin protection".

His incarnation is a tall man with a serious expression wearing heavy armor. He wears iron gloves and holds a balancing scale.

However, before he could speak, Shuna, the goddess of love with long fiery red hair, teased:

"How majestic, Heim. After the death of Tyr, the god of justice, you inherited his priesthood. Now tens of thousands of years have passed, and you are already one of the most powerful gods in the world. There are quite a few It’s His Majesty’s style.”

Several jeers suddenly came from the powerful god's seat.

Heim only had moderate powers at the beginning, but because he had been loyally doing things for AO, he got benefits and his powers became stronger and stronger.

Now Heim has reached godhood 19, and his Church of Justice is also the most powerful and influential church in New Faerûn.

The Church of Justice takes care of almost everything. It is a bit like the police of the Earth and the United States, so it has offended many people.

Heim's face darkened when he heard the sarcastic words of the goddess of love. He didn't understand where he had offended this goddess.

But he did not choose to quarrel with the goddess. He held up the scale with his iron hand, looked around and said:

"Everyone, you must also know the reason why I called everyone here today.

A catastrophe may be about to happen!

A riot of magical energy swept through the entire crystal wall system, which meant the birth of a new magic network goddess. However, this was not a good thing.

I saw darkness, the deepest darkness. The power of darkness will expand along with the magic network, endangering all civilization and order.

The night is long and winter is approaching. All life may have to live in the cold darkness in the future. We cannot sit still and wait for death. We must unite to stop the expansion of darkness! "

His impassioned voice echoed throughout the Polestar camp.

However, few responded.

Many gods knew that the new Magic Network Goddess was born. After all, the magic network covering the crystal wall system made so much noise, and everyone was not blind.

But they don't understand why this is a crisis.

"Lord Heim, the reappearance of the Magic Network is in line with the tide of the force of the universe. There seems to be nothing wrong with the ancient and mysterious goddess of the night becoming the master of the Magic Network. Where does the crisis begin?"

A new generation of young gods stood up and asked doubtfully.

This question brought out the thoughts of many gods.

The new generation of gods generally do not understand the goddess of night. They only know that she is an ancient, mysterious, powerful and very low-key goddess.

After the End War, Shar focused solely on how to become a god. For tens of thousands of years, she had only a handful of miracles and was almost forgotten by the gods.

Her reputation improved a lot as a result.

Strong in strength, but indifferent to fame and fortune, neither fighting nor grabbing, aloof from others.

There is no conflict of interest between the gods and the goddess of the night, and they naturally have a good impression of her.

Heim knocked on the table with his left hand, his eyes were as bright as fire, and he said in a stern tone:

"That's because you don't understand the lady of the night at all, so you have such naive thoughts.

Shar is insidious, cunning, ruthless, evil, greedy and hateful. She hates all light and life, trying to destroy the entire world and return everything to nothingness and darkness. She is an out-and-out madman, an extremely evil evil god!

She is already very powerful, almost unparalleled.

If she is allowed to gain the power of the magic net again, then the entire crystal wall system will be shrouded in darkness and there is a risk of destruction at any time!

Don't think I'm being exaggerated. You can ask the surviving gods of the old era, those demigods and legendary lichs, and you will know how crazy and evil the Lady of the Night is.

If she uses the power of the magic network to ascend to the Supreme God's throne, it will be a disaster for the multiverse! "

These harsh words made the gods a little frightened and they looked at each other.

Some new generation gods began to ask those ancient gods about the Lady of the Night.

Soon, everyone was a little dumbfounded.

Almost none of the old gods had a good word to say about the Lady of Night, and all had a bad impression of her.

Evil, crazy, insidious, ruthless... there is almost no good word to say.

The gods of old had not wronged Shar.

Shar, female, represents the original darkness, the complete nothingness before time begins to flow. She is an indifferent and powerful divinity. She is extremely eager to return to the peaceful nothingness of the beginning, so she plans in the dark to destroy all civilizations and civilizations. order……

These descriptions directly tell you that Shar's teachings are anti-social and anti-human.

If you believe in other evil gods, you may still have a future, but in the end, if you believe in Shar, you will have nothing.

The goddess of the night was not generally bad in the past. There were few goddesses more evil and crazy than her in Faerûn.

Perhaps only the Spider Goddess Rose can compete...

However, times have changed.

A new generation god questioned and said:

"Well, the goddess of the night was really terrible and extremely evil before, but it's different now. At least she hasn't done anything extraordinary in the past tens of thousands of years.

Lord Heim, maybe the goddess has corrected her evil ways or switched sides? "

This statement was echoed by some gods.

The gods of the old era basically didn't have a good impression of Shar, but they had never experienced that era, and they had never been harmed by Shar. Mere hearsay could not make them share the same hatred.

"Innocent!"

"childish!"

"I don't believe that Shar will change her ways. This is more ridiculous than wolves eating grass and sheep eating meat!" "Yes, the goddess of the night is already powerful enough. We cannot let her control the power of magic. In this way, she will be invincible. Completely superior to us!"

"I've had enough of those madmen. The three gods of death and Cyric have all fallen. It's her turn!"

Some gods from the old era stood up and echoed Heim.

Among them are the powerful Storm Lord Talos, the Furious Gods, as well as the guardian god Torm, the craftsman and craftsman god Gond and others.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Heim, the god of justice and origin protection, coughed lightly and said loudly:

"We cannot sit back and watch the goddess of the night expand her dark power wantonly. Everyone, this is not a crisis against a certain god or a certain camp. At this moment, we should put aside our prejudices and act together!"

"What should we do?"

"It is inevitable that the magic network will cover the crystal wall system. We cannot reverse this process even if we work together. Why, are we going to enter the shadow plane and attack the goddess' kingdom?"

"This is impossible, no one can do this!"

Maybe some people didn't know how powerful the Night Goddess was before, but now everyone knows that the dark tide and magic torrent sweeping the universe are a power that even the gods can't match.

"quiet!"

Heim looked at the noisy Polaris tent and shouted with a sharp gaze, "It is not feasible to attack the Shadow Plane. Most gods will be suppressed there, not to mention entering the kingdom of the Lady of Night.

But we can attack her from another angle, such as faith.

I suggest that the gods unite to attack the Church of the Night Goddess on the continent of Faerûn, annihilate her believers, and strive to interrupt her promotion! "

Even if it can't be interrupted, it can still interfere with and delay her steps to become a god above the gods.

When His Majesty AO wakes up, he will deal with this evil god who dares to peek into the throne of the Supreme God.

Heim, the God of Justice, thought in his heart, looked at the gods, and continued to speak impassionedly:

"I will immediately declare war on the goddess of the night, and let the Church of Justice begin to eliminate the goddess's followers. Gods, for the sake of justice and the safety of the universe, please help me!!

I won’t let you all work in vain. I swear on the River Styx that for all the gods who participated in this operation, I will record your merits. In the future, the great AO will come to discuss your merits and reward them! "

At this time, many gods became excited.

For justice and the safety of the universe, they cannot be moved, but the rewards from God can.

Cyric, Midnight and Kelemvor are living examples. Because they were rewarded by the gods, they became powerful gods with unlimited glory.

Some ambitious or passionate gods immediately approached Helm and expressed their willingness to help him.

Of course, more gods are still indifferent, especially those powerful gods.

Almost all the powerful gods chose to leave.

The love goddess Shu Na left the seat of the powerful gods, glanced at Heim who was surrounded by dozens of gods, and sneered:

"What a loyal dog. For the sake of his master, he dares to take action against a goddess who is about to ascend to the highest level."

Heim is the spokesperson of AO, and the powerful gods all have complicated feelings about AO.

They are in awe of His Majesty AO's unparalleled power, but at the same time they are disgusted with someone always riding on their heads, and deep down they also long to become a god above the gods.

"Heim is doomed to be disappointed. He does not understand the essential difference between a superior god and a powerful god. The current goddess of the night is not the mad god Cyric before."

Next to him, Ogma, the God of Knowledge, said calmly.

This wise and learned god wore a pair of exquisitely crafted and richly decorated armor and carried a beautiful-sounding snowwood harp.

He used this piano to play the most perfect notes and sighed:

"Even her personality, ideas, attributes, and the essence of her divine power have changed. With the power of the magic network, there is no possibility of her failing."

Can the annihilation of believers affect the promotion of a god?

Indeed it can.

If other gods ascended to the highest level and were attacked by Heim like this, their achievements would really be in vain and they would be left with eternal hatred.

But Shar is not among them.

According to his speculation, the power of the magic net alone was enough to push her to the throne of a god, and it did not require much power of faith at all.

Even if the gods' actions go smoothly, it will take at least several decades to wipe out all of Shar's followers, and within such a long time, she will have been promoted long ago.

After becoming a god, it doesn't matter if all the believers die.

God has no need for believers.

Jergal still looks like a withered and fragile mummy, his pale yellow eyes are lifeless, and his divine power barely meets the standards of a powerful god.

He leaned on his crutches and left slowly. The new generation of the God of Slaughter followed him with a respectful look on his face.

"Senior, can the goddess of the night succeed? That guy Heim wants to dig out the foundation of the goddess this time and kill them all."

The young God of Slaughter asked curiously.

"Cough cough."

Jergal looked like he was about to die at any moment, "You are too young and know too little. It is ridiculous to look at a god from the perspective of a powerful god.

Even the rising god is no longer a normal god. "

This is a bit of an answer to the question.

The young god of killing looked confused.

Jergo looked at Heim, who was surrounded by some gods and talked impassionedly about how to wipe out the followers of the goddess of the night. He seemed to be in a good mood, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he said:

“God is above God, there is no camp, no priesthood, no fixed attributes, and no need for believers.

If you insist on speaking, God is neutral, absolutely neutral.

Good and evil, right and wrong, light and darkness, good and evil, are just the rules of the game of the gods.

When Shar can control her evil and crazy nature, she has saved enough. The gods are just slaves of the divine priesthood and belief, and the gods are the masters.

Roy, the young god of killing, do you know that the key step to becoming a god is to cut off the connection with believers, thereby transcending the shackles of the power of faith.

Haim, hehe, after all, he is just a dog.

He had no idea what kind of existence his master was. Because he was loyal, he never thought about the nature of gods above gods.

His behavior is funny and makes people laugh.

After Shar wakes up, she might even thank him. "

When Roy, the God of Slaughter, heard these words, his eyes were shocked and he didn't know what to say.

……

Three days later, Waterdeep.

The churches of gods such as Heim, the God of Justice, Thom, the Guardian God, and Talos, the Lord of Storms and Destruction, united and sent a large number of paladins and priests to surround the port area.

Waterdeep's harbor district is a "violent place, filled with endless squabbles, punctuated only by sporadic trade, wandering wild dogs, and a few brave Watchers."

But today, it's extremely quiet here.

The road leading to the slums was almost deserted. The usual large number of workers, beggars, gangsters, and street warblers had all fled here.

The city lord Grafite wore a golden chainmail and held an ax. He stood in front of a large number of guards and paladins and said:

"The great and strict God of Justice has declared war on the evil Thieves Guild and the Church of the Dark Goddess. We are gathered here today to completely cleanse the cancer of these cities, this filthy land! The enemy is powerful, you are afraid ?"

"Justice will prevail, justice will prevail!"

The paladins raised their swords and shouted loudly.

The war has begun.
