Oops, I became the witch's substitute

Filin has been somewhat of an exception lately, especially since he's quite handsome.

"Uh... I have something serious to say." Feilin pointed to the cart in his hand, "I'm here to deliver books, for free..."

"Was it Fili's order?"

“Of course, it’s important.”

"why?"

“Because the stories in the book are true.”

"?"

Filin further explained: "The stories in the collection may have been artistically processed, but the general content is authentic. Now we have to help Pandora's good thoughts overcome her evil thoughts."

As a veteran witch, Surad certainly knew that Pandora was a scourge, but due to her lack of financial resources and strength, she had no way to deal with this evil black witch. Now that she saw an opportunity, she immediately thought of helping out.

"Are you collecting faith? No, it's just a similar method." As an insider, Surad found it hard to believe in the existence of Pandora, the Witch of Hope, but she chose to believe in the decision of the three witches. "Anyway, let all the witches read this book?"

Filin clapped his hands. "That's right. Now we will distribute the story collection to the witches first, and then sell it at a low price in Miriam. We will also hire bards from all over the city to sing in the streets and taverns. Then we will spread the story across the country so that everyone will know Pandora's past. In the end, there is only one purpose. When someone encounters a fragment of the abyss and is harmed by the gray fog, praying to Pandora will bring salvation to the witch of hope Pandora."

Filin named this tactic "the cow pays for the wool and the pig pays the bill."

If Marian were to do it, she would have to be on her toes at all times, squatting next to the phone, ready to answer calls for help at any time and sense the danger. Sooner or later, she would be exhausted.

However, it is different if the object that can be known when called is bound to Pandora. Pandora, the witch of hope, was made by Fili using fragments of the abyss. Under the distortion of deceit, calling the name of Pandora of Disaster is equivalent to calling the name of Pandora of Hope.

Outside of Kalan, the number of abyss fragments is small and the strength is low. Since it is the main venue of the story of the Witch of Hope Pandora, the false clone who has been blessed with power can easily fight against it. Pandora herself may not be able to sense the specific situation, and even if she senses it, she is out of reach.

In Kalan, the fragments of the abyss are Pandora's power of disaster. People in danger scream and call for Pandora. Pandora herself will just take a look at the situation and won't care too much. She wants to kill them anyway, but this alone is enough to harass Pandora.

On Fili's side, she continued to search for the fragments of the abyss, captured them, and then improved them by adding the power of transformation to make them into deceptive puppets.

There is a difference between a puppet and a clone.

For the time being, Fili has only created a false clone of Pandora. When necessary, Fili will personally play the role of Pandora in case of emergency.

As for puppets, they just execute orders in a simple and rough manner. Fili will let the puppets scatter everywhere, and after the power of deception is formed, they will be able to carry out the rules of descent set by Fili.

As Filin spread the story collection, the Witch Forest became a book club, and then ordinary people began to hear Pandora's story. Fili's magic power began to deplete at an accelerated rate, and then she entered a state of patient adjustment.

This time, Fili discovered that everyone who read the collection of stories would have a connection with her deceptive power in some way, a connection that she had not felt in the previous Bahamut incident. This showed that she had made a lot of progress on her path.

Grasping these mysterious sensations, Fili traced back to the source and entered the other person's dream when the other person was sleeping at night. It seemed that Qingyue's protection made the power of deception stronger.

Due to the long distance and weak connection, Fili's ability to interfere with these dreams was limited. After a little thought, Fili let the Witch of Hope Pandora appear in the other party's dream as a passerby.

Witches have lucid dreams most of the time, and ordinary people also have lucid dreams. Whether intentional or unintentional, Fili further strengthens the impression of Pandora in the readers' dreams.

"When you encounter the fragments of the abyss and are shrouded in gray fog, call my name and I will appear."

Whenever Pandora is found by the dream owner, Fili will let this Pandora become an NPC to repeat a sentence. When this idea becomes a rule, subsequent readers will naturally be affected by Pandora when they come into contact with the power of deception.

For those who dream, Pandora's incarnation is more like what you think about during the day and dream about at night. It is normal to see a good story during the day and dream about it at night, and the dream arranged by Fili is a coincidence.

Most dreamers may not be able to notice Pandora as the background.

In this way, Fili could feel that the incarnation of the witch Pandora was changing every day, and the number of people who recognized Pandora's existence gradually increased from single digits to hundreds and then to thousands.

Hopefully, the lie of Witch Pandora is being accepted, but it will take time.

At present, I hope that the identity of the witch Pandora is still with Fili.

On Karan's side, creating Pandora, the witch of hope, is a very dangerous thing. Fili wants to make Pandora famous in this place, but she can't let the real Pandora find out. It's almost like playing with fire, equivalent to holding a firecracker in your hand and pinching the fuse with your hand the moment it is lit.

Before the antivirus software Pandora, the Witch of Hope, was launched, Fili would occasionally play her a little.

“In short, when the troops surrounding our group encounter fragments of the abyss, they should call upon ‘Pandora, the Witch of Hope.’” Fili passed on the news.

Evelynte and the Water Priestess were fine, Serena and Yue Lan were both acceptable, but the Heroic Mage Captain Casiram was sweating profusely, and his performance was so sweaty that it made the guy laugh.

Kashiram just wants to stay alive: "In this area, it's too dangerous to call out that name."

"Pandora, the Witch of Hope~Pandora, the Witch of Hope—yes, that's it." The water priestess was eager to watch the fun and called out repeatedly in front of everyone.

As a result, of course the real Pandora couldn't hear it, only the false Pandora fell from the sky.

"This is a false clone we created using the same power as Pandora. Within the range of my domain, calling her name now will not be detected." Fili has learned a lesson. After being hunted by Pandora, she began to distort the origin of her name. At least when she calls Pandora, she is actually calling this false clone.

At the same time, Fili also controlled Pandora to nod: "Yes, from now on I will protect our army. When the soldiers encounter the fragments of the abyss, just call my name and I will come instantly."

Fili added fuel to the fire: "This is the safest method I have adopted after communicating with many powerful people in the Kalan area. Besides, you have to have confidence in us. Even if Pandora is really attracted, will she dare to cross the front line and go straight to the rear? There are so many eyes watching here now."

Casillas thought for a moment and said, "Indeed, although she is powerful, her existence has been targeted. She can only plan behind the scenes and dare not walk in the sun."

In fact, Pandora could still curse certain people to death alone. Fili was just waiting for an opportunity for a full-scale outbreak. When the outside world began to call Pandora's name, but Kalan was everywhere looking for Pandora's salvation, Fili really wanted to see what expression this witch of disaster would have.

The victim asked the murderer for help, and the murderer's mind was probably full of questions.

"So, it's time for our troops to take action." Fili threw the question to Serena.

Because the army is led by a Transcendent, its strength is not very strong. After comprehensive consideration, Serena gave up filling in the meat grinder on the front line and decided that it would be better for her to temporarily serve as a guard for the guerrilla army and the logistics army.

With so few people, there is no need to work too hard. Of course, the focus of our work is still on guerrilla warfare.

When a nearby lord sends out a signal for help or when a monster like the Pied Piper is to be conquered, Serena will take action.

"Ever since Filin defeated the demon general Anastasia, the Kalan army has moved forward to recover lost territory. Our regiment's activity area has been nearby." Serena was still a little afraid. "After that battle, the most frightening thing was the Distorted Dragon. A sage had asked the dragon clan for help before, but unfortunately the two dragons that came were defeated. This time..."

IX. WulinⅠ⑧Jiulin Lake

As luck would have it, when talking about the dragon, several people in the room sensed a powerful magic approaching in the sky. After careful sensing, they found it was the Frost Moon Dragon. This time, Carol gave him gold to refine many works of art in exchange for air transport services.

Yes, this dragon doesn't care whether the stored gold is natural gold or not. He even agreed to Carol's proposal to exchange refined gold coins for the natural gold coins in his dragon's nest at a ratio of three to one.

Alchemical gold is also a strange product, physically indistinguishable from ordinary gold, and ordinary people cannot perceive the difference, but in occultism it lacks the mystery of natural gold.

Anyway, the dragon's gold was only used for storage and not consumption, so he didn't care at all.

"I'm Frost Moon Dragon Evana. It seems like this is the second time I've run errands for you little dust kids." Frost Moon Dragon was carrying a lot of luggage on its back and holding a huge container in its claws as it slowly descended from the sky.

The dragon's flight is not entirely dependent on wings, half of its engine is powered by magic, so its transport capacity is amazing.

Selena began to command the soldiers to unload the goods. Seeing the abundant supplies, the morale of the corps rose rapidly.

Fili came to Shuangyuelong and said, "Evina, you are still the same, talking in an old-fashioned way and showing off your seniority."

Eveina was still waiting to go back to make some money: "Hmph, the things have been delivered, I should go back now."

Fili hurriedly called Evina: “Wait a minute, are you interested in making extra money?”

Evena raised her dragon head high and thought for a moment: "Kalan is a dangerous place. My companions have died. I have no obligation to stay... So, I have to pay more."

Fili observed the strength of Frost Moon Dragon. According to the standards, she was a standard deity with the power of dragon magic. She could not be said to be weak just because she was beaten by Bahamut.

"There is a distorted dragon near Kalan. Two demons sacrificed the evil creature they summoned. As far as I know, the majesty of a dragon cannot be insulted. Are you interested in fighting against this guy who ruined your reputation?"

"This……"

Dragons are very arrogant by nature. They believe that flying dragons with lower spirituality are mentally retarded, and even expel creatures like dragon beasts from the dragon category. They are even unwilling to acknowledge that dragon people have dragon blood, and believe that dragon people should be integrated into the human race. Because of this arrogance, they also consciously clean up some evil creatures that resemble dragons.

Even if a demon that looks like a dragon passes by, their giant dragons will take a bite anyway.

"Okay, let's fight together. Let's give you one ton of gold." Evena raised her paw. A ton of gold was just enough for her to play with. "I will stay nearby for a few days. You guys should identify the target as soon as possible. You choose the people, and we will fight side by side."

Fili crossed her arms and said, "You better try harder this time. Don't be like the last time you fought Bahamut and got completely overwhelmed."

Evena snorted. During the desperate battle with Bahamut, she had to admit that the strange dragon was powerful, but it was a star beast level existence. If she couldn't beat the star beast, could she not beat the crooked dragon?

After the negotiation, Fili suddenly mentioned Pandora: "By the way, Evina, have you heard the story of Pandora, the Witch of Hope?"

……

…………

In the center of Kalan, under an unknown abyss, lava is churning and the air is full of sulfur. Normal creatures cannot survive here at all, but in the center of the lava lake there is a human figure floating.

Pandora, the witch of disaster, has her body wrapped in a sphere of black mist. The darkness gathers into liquid and continuously flows into the magma below.

"what?"

At this moment, she closed her eyes and frowned slightly, feeling many distant whispers. Many people were chanting her name without any scruples. The number was large, the base was large, the range was wide, the distance was far, and the intentions were vague.

Faintly, I heard the word "hope", and gradually a clear feeling formed, and a lot of emotions of pity, regret, emotion and praise gathered together.

"Are you sick?" Pandora's first reaction was that the cult she had spread was causing trouble.

Not long ago, a witch named Mediya worked for her and organized a cult. There are many cult organizations like Mediya that have changed their skin. Pandora has established many such organizations, using people's fear to establish faith, just to cause trouble for mankind.

There are still a lot of negative emotions contributed by cult organizations in various places, which have achieved automatic transformation of abyss fragments and become self-sufficient. According to the plan, it will gradually spread throughout the world, making the planet restless.

But now, the sudden surge of positive emotions and negative emotions have been neutralized, and the two forces have offset each other to some extent. Although the amount is not large, it is very strange.

She is the bark of the shadow tree of Pandora. Who in the industry doesn't know how terrifying she is? How can she have a good reputation for truth, goodness and beauty?

"Is someone planning a propaganda war to distort history? To eliminate people's fear of me? Humph, they are digging their own graves."

Pandora's initial guess was that there must be someone outside targeting the abyss fragments, and he must be an expert.

Do you want to cut off the fear of me that humans have? Pandora silently spread the field of disaster and contacted the consciousnesses that called her name. Although they were too far away to be cursed, it was still possible to affect their nightmares.

"Struggle in the nightmare!"

So, many people who have read the Pandora story collection began to see the battle between two Pandoras in their dreams.

Chapter 165: The Lies Become More and More Convincing, and the Witch Becomes More and More Angered

Pandora suffered from inertial thinking. She had a relatively clear self-awareness, but due to insufficient intelligence, she felt that the outside world had distorted her and subconsciously thought that the enemy was targeting her.

She had just opened the channel between the planet and the moon, and someone immediately reported her for violating the rules and destroying the world.

Now the fragments of the abyss are being spread, and before Kalan can get out of it and become bigger and stronger, someone comes to snipe at the society that she has worked so hard to start.

Thinking of this, a nasty witch popped up in Pandora's mind. She didn't know who it was, because in the end Pandora didn't see the other party clearly. Instead, it was this witch who discovered the passage on the moon, called her name and mocked her, and finally let her run away.

"The more I think about it, the more I feel it could be her! Hateful, abominable, and disgusting!! Her escape is the biggest stain on my life!!! I will catch her, tear her bones apart, and chop her into 139 pieces——!"

Whenever Pandora thought of this, she would become so angry that she couldn't sleep. You can imagine how angry she was.

At this moment, Filin and Fili sneezed at the same time.

Pandora never expected that she would make the person who blessed her have a nightmare and turn into a boomerang, which would later become the bullet that shot her heart.

The character of "Pandora of Hope" requires a lot of magic power to feed. Fili uses deception to induce the outside world's recognition and provide magic power to the deception puppets. This originally took some time to accumulate, but now, people who just had a little impression of Pandora have started to have nightmares!

Filin was afraid that people would not know about Pandora’s threat, so now Pandora took the initiative to show her true colors and do evil in dreams.

Because nightmares have the power of disaster, dreamers can feel it very clearly. The evil Pandora leaves a deep impression on them, but then they hope Pandora will appear. The two Pans have a fight in the dream, making the plot correspond to the book.

So just one day later, Pandora woke up from her meditation. The effect of the power of disaster was not ideal. She suspected that the thinking of this generation of human beings was not healthy. Is no one afraid of her?

"What's going on? Why did the nightmare warnings not only fail to weaken these effects, but increase them?"

It is true that the fragments of the abyss were spread through the power of disaster, making Kalan shrouded in fear. People cannot leave the fire at night and are afraid of the darkness. People have lost hope in their hearts. But what is the situation outside of Kalan?

She suspected that the plan to fight against the fragments of the abyss was a coalition of several theocratic countries. Secular countries did not have such organization. These people affected by the nightmare were all elites. Not only were they not afraid, but they were even more determined to fight against her. This made her angry and a little proud.

After all, how many people in this world can make all the gods of the nations feel as if they were facing a formidable enemy? So Pandora began to plot against non-existent enemies, intending to continue to attack the world on a spiritual level and create more terrifying monsters.

However, she never expected that there would be someone in this world who could write several books in just ten days, all of which were excellent scripts, and created a character for her that did not exist at all.

This is not because Fei Lin has a profound literary foundation, but simply because of his ability to copy and transfer texts. Coupled with the polishing and supplementation of the two great witches, it perfectly fits people's imagination of witches.

Because of the publicity of the Witch Forest, everyone gradually knew that it was a weapon used to deal with Pandora. Powerful witches spontaneously provided blessings for the false puppets, and ordinary people, after reading the novels produced by the witches, got to know the Abyss Fragments and knew that they could pray to Pandora for help when they encountered danger.

As a result, the residents of Miriam began to exhibit strange behaviors. Some families frequently went in and out of nearby temples to ask for some amulets to carry with them, intending to stockpile items of faith from several gods when necessary.

There is a true God in this world. Faith is not something you can acquire by just cramming at the last minute. Otherwise, how can you be worthy of others’ hard work?

But the merchants didn't care. As luck would have it, a traveling merchant tried to take a shortcut and was shrouded in gray fog. He met a monster from the abyss fragments. The monster was not strong but he had no guards around him. When he was chased into a dead end, he could only take out a handful of amulets from his collar and pray one by one. Of course, his location was not in the service area of ​​the gods, and there was no response to his prayers one by one.

The ferocious monster forced the merchant into a tree hole, but this only delayed his death. He could already smell the stench coming from the monster's mouth so close.

"Pandora, the Witch of Hope, please save me!"

Finally, puppets specialized for the Abyss Fragments responded to the voice of prayer.

The abyss monster was about to bite the merchant’s throat, but its ferocious expression suddenly froze, and then it let out a strange cry, and was dragged out of the tree hole by its tail.

There were terrible crashing sounds coming from outside the tree hole, trees breaking, rocks cracking. When the merchant recovered from his fear, the beating sounds outside had not ended yet, and the sound waves were getting louder and louder, approaching the merchant's location from time to time.

At the beginning, every time there was a vibration, the merchant subconsciously put his hands in front of him, but after a few consecutive fake moves, the merchant was sure that the monster could no longer hurt him, and then he realized that his bet was right.
