Chapter 1871 The World of the Dead

"I really didn't expect to see you here." Although he already knew the nature of the gods and had killed them more than once, Leo still showed due respect to the god in front of him who was said to control death.

"I didn't expect to see you here." Death God Kain also said the same thing.

Leo thought of the spider web illusion that appeared behind the God of Death, Kain, and asked in a deep voice, "Are you also one of the gods of the Black Forest?"

Death God Kain shook his head slightly and did not answer, but a black deer appeared behind him, and the appearance of this black deer was exactly the same as the white deer.

"Are you from White Deer...?" Leo immediately had a guess in his mind, but he didn't know how to confirm it.

"I am the White Deer, just his other side." The God of Death, Kain, answered.

Perhaps to confirm his statement, the white deer divine power contained in the wedding ring on Leo's finger shone a few times as if in response.

"What kind of world is this?" Leo then asked.

Death God Kain was silent for a moment and replied: "The world of the dead."

"The world of the dead?" Leo was stunned for a moment, then as if he thought of something, a look of contemplation appeared on his face.

There is no doubt that the answer given by Death God Gain is somewhat beyond Leo's expectations. He had always inferred from various clues that this world was an extension of the land of Velen, but it was shrouded in gray fog in the middle.

Although the answer to the world of the dead is a bit unexpected, it is not difficult to accept if you think about it carefully. After all, the answer has been placed in front of Leo from the beginning. If it were not the world of the dead, how could there be so many ghost ships appearing in this world? .

It's just that Leo was misled by the sailors and soldiers on the ships around him at the time. He never thought that a world with so many normal humans would be a world of the dead.

Leo asked in confusion: "Since it is the world of the dead, why are there so many normal humans living here and establishing a country?"

"Even normal humans exist in the abyss, let alone the world of the dead," Death God Kain explained, and then asked: "But are you sure that the humans you see are all living people?"

Leo looked at the God of Death Kain in confusion upon hearing this. Although he did not observe each person to analyze whether they were alive, his perception was enough to distinguish whether a creature was alive or dead, and he could be sure that he had seen it. The people who passed by were all living people, and there was no dead person pretending to be a living person.

"What do you think the dead should look like?" Death God Gain seemed to see what Leo was thinking from his expression, so he asked again.

Leo opened his mouth to answer, but immediately swallowed his words because he found that the answer he gave was incorrect, and after thinking about it seriously, he felt that he could not give a correct answer.

"In the laws of the World Tree, there is actually not much difference between life and death. They just live with the same identity in another world. After people in the world of the dead die, they will be reborn in other worlds of the living, and in other worlds of the living. People in the world of the dead will be reborn in the world of the dead after they die, and the cycle starts over and over again." Death God Kain explained calmly, and then suddenly sneered in a tone full of contempt: "A set of extremely boring rules, like this. It’s a gear that keeps turning! It makes those who stare at it feel dizzy.”

Leo couldn't help but feel confused when he heard that the God of Death, Kain, showed such disdain for the laws of the World Tree, and this law that he disdained was the foundation of his existence.

"Don't look at me like this. When you have to spend endless time doing this, you will be like me." Death God Gain rolled his eyes at Leo and said: "And I am the negative emotion of Bai Lu, Isn’t it normal to have this kind of reaction?”

Leo did not give Death God Kain any response. Although he also felt that Death God Kain was not wrong to disdain the laws of the World Tree, but Death God Kain could blatantly show disdain, it did not mean that he could. He was not willing to do it because of such a trivial matter. Get yourself into trouble.

"Since this is the world of the dead, why am I here?" Leo did not dwell on matters such as the pros and cons of the World Tree's laws, but quickly changed the subject and asked.

Death God Kain looked at Leo with a strange look and said: "Since it is the world of the dead, naturally only the dead can come."

"Am I dead?" Leo had a shocked look on his face, but it soon turned into a suspicious look, and said in a deep voice: "Impossible, although I may not be able to tell which people in this world are dead. , but I can be sure that I am definitely not dead.”

"Yes, you are indeed not dead now, but this does not mean that you were not dead before." Death God Kain looked at Leo very seriously and said: "I can tell you with certainty that under the laws of the World Tree, In the world of the dead, only the dead can enter, even gods."

When Leo heard this, he immediately fell into deep thought. He did not refute the words of the God of Death, Kain, because he was not sure whether he died. After all, a large part of his memory was missing. He had to leave the Nine Realms. The memory of the world going to the Tower Wizard Academy, but there is no memory of what happened after that. The last connection is the memory of him waking up on this world ship, which means that in that missing memory, he may indeed be dead.

"Then now..." Leo asked again.

"Living man, you are indeed a living man now, I believe you can confirm it yourself." Death God Gain looked at Leo and said: "The living in this world are the first humans in the world. When the world became the world of the dead, these humans did not leave, but continued to reproduce here and live together with the dead in this world. But since the world became the world of the dead, there has never been a living person from outside. You are the first one."

"What does this mean?" Leo asked puzzled.

Death God Gain explained: "You were definitely dead before coming to this world, so you entered this world of the dead under the guidance of the laws of the world tree, but the moment you entered this world, you were resurrected again, and this resurrection did not come from the laws of the world tree, but from your own power."

"My own power?" Leo was confused at the moment, and he had no idea what was going on, because he knew very well that all the powers in his body were not related to death and resurrection, and there was no such ability in the psychic skills. More importantly, he was confused about how he died.

Although he admitted that he was only a demigod, and there was still a big gap between him and the real gods or Omega-level higher life forms, he was also sure that with the power he possessed, even if he really encountered a real god, he would definitely be able to protect himself, and at the very least he would be able to escape from the attack of the real god, and there would be no danger of death.

But this cannot be said to be absolute, because if Sylvia encountered danger, he would most likely not choose to escape, but stay and fight hard. Thinking of this, he began to worry about Sylvia, and hoped that he could find the lost memory, so that he could find the answer.

"When did you find me?" Leo then asked Death God Gain a new question. He thought that if Death God Gain found him at the beginning, then the other party must know something about his situation during that period.

However, to Leo's disappointment, the god of death Gain replied: "After you touched my forbidden ball, I felt the power of the white deer and realized that there is an alien like you in this world of the dead that should not exist."

"Alien?" Leo muttered with a hint of meaning, and said: "If I hadn't come to the underground, would you have come to the ground..."

"No." The god of death Gain shook his head and said: "No god, even me, is allowed to go to the ground of the world of the dead. I can only wait for you to come down."

Leo pondered After a moment, he confirmed: "Did you ask the Yagulin people to send the divine power crystal that sealed the young abyss snake to the ground?"

"Yes." Death God Gain admitted: "Only by putting the sealing ball on the ground can there be no accidents."

Leo couldn't help but be curious and asked: "What about the abyss snake?"

"An alien from the abyss, an unlucky guy who tried to get rid of the abyss but got entangled with the abyss more tightly." Death God Gain introduced in a deep tone. From his tone, it is not difficult to hear that his relationship with this abyss snake is not simple.

"Can you tell me more about it?" Leo asked curiously.

Death God Gain hesitated for a moment, nodded and said: "Of course, He has been completely destroyed, and all things related to him will no longer have any impact."

Then, Death God Gain briefly narrated the things about this abyss snake.

This matter is actually very simple. An abyss snake that has entered the ancient period accidentally peeked into the mystery of the abyss will, was frightened and fled from the abyss, and wanted to completely get rid of the comfort of the abyss, so he chose to abandon everything in the abyss, let the gods of the world tree transform him, and also released the abyss power he controlled for the gods of the world tree to study.

Although he successfully became the god of the world tree under the transformation of the gods, he still could not get rid of the power of the abyss. In extreme fear, he wanted to do something extremely blasphemous to the golden giant deer, the protector of the world tree, and was killed by the gods of the world tree.

After death, the abyss snake did not return to the abyss like other abyss creatures because of its identity as a world tree god, but fell into the world of the dead. In order to prevent it from causing damage to the world of the dead, the god of death Gain had to strip its body and soul, and use a captured abyss snake larva as its soul carrier to completely seal it up, and then use the special power generated by the prayers of the dead to wear down the body of the abyss snake, completely eliminating the possibility of its resurrection.

Hearing this, Leo understood why the residents of this underground city were so strange, and the only meaning of their existence was to pray to the Abyss Serpent.

"Did you arrange all this?" Leo pointed to the surrounding temples and the city outside the temples.

However, the God of Death Gain shook his head, then pointed to Leo's hand and said, "It was arranged by Him. I am just a caretaker to avoid accidents."

Leo looked at the ring in his hand. Although he felt that the God of Death Gain still had a lot of things about the Abyss Serpent that he had not revealed, such as what the mystery of the Abyss Will was, he believed that the gods of the World Tree should have obtained this secret from the Abyss Serpent, but he also knew that these secrets were not something he could touch.

"Where are the Agulin people in this city?" Leo asked.

The God of Death Gain said, "They have completed their mission and received the reward from the World Tree."

Leo frowned slightly. He thought of the Mumu people who died in the water. He felt that the reward from the World Tree might not be a good thing, but he did not continue to ask because it had nothing to do with him and he could not do anything.

Leo asked a personal question, "You appear in front of me now. Are you worried that I will cause an accident, or for other reasons?"

Death God Gain said seriously, "You are a living person, and a demigod. You have brought a very bad influence to this world by coming to this world of the dead..."

Leo said in a deep voice, "Bad influence? Why don't I feel it?"

Death God Gain shook his head and said, "No, the bad influence has appeared in front of you, but you don't realize it."

"Appear in front of me?" Leo showed a puzzled look, but soon realized something and was surprised. Yidao: "The plague in the New World?"

Death God Gain nodded and said: "For the living, everything about the dead is like poison, and for the dead, everything about the living is like plague." He sighed slightly and said: "If we can't survive this plague of the living, this world of the dead may be destroyed."

Leo's face darkened when he heard this. He didn't think that Death God Gain was lying to him. Although he didn't do it on purpose, he felt a little uncomfortable when he thought that a world would be destroyed because of him, even if this world was a world of the dead. This might be the disadvantage of rich emotions.

Leo quickly dispelled the strangeness in his heart, then looked at the God of Death Gain calmly and asked: "What are you going to do now? Kill me and make me a real dead person?"

"Of course not, why do you think so?" The God of Death Gain smiled and said: "You are a descendant of the White Deer. Unless you commit a great sin of blaspheming the World Tree, the gods of the World Tree will not be your enemy. I appear in front of you for only one purpose, that is, to take you back to the world of the living before you cause damage to another world of the dead."

"What is another world of the dead?" Leo asked.

"The underground world you think of." The God of Death Gain gave a clear answer.

After speaking, without waiting for Leo to continue asking other questions, he directly stretched out his hand and placed it on Leo's shoulder, and then disappeared from the temple in an instant.
