Time passed quietly like this.

Modo City is constantly changing, and the news that is not very good is coming back from the mainland.

Sauron was preparing to go to the Eastern Kingdom to explore the girl who accidentally summoned his demon into a material plane last time. That is, the temple found in the desert when an accident happened some time ago. Sauron sensed the breath of death in this temple. If it was really the ruins of the temple left by a fallen god of death, perhaps he could find the mystery related to the realm of [Death] from it. Even if he could not do this, anything related to [Death] has amazing value!

Killing and death.

Before the long-standing era, the two were originally linked together, and there was a god of killing among the three gods of death.

but.

Before leaving, Sauron had a little bit of things to deal with.

……………………

South coast, Wind Spear Hills.

This land originally belonged to the descendants of the Isabella family, but some time ago, there was a slight accident and the main members of the family died in the attack of the evil snake man. This led to the almost cut off the direct bloodline. Finally, after various reasons, especially some external interference, the heir of the territory became a woman.

Adele Isabella.

Some forces in the secret have already known who is standing behind this woman, but not many people dare to stand up because the Lord is shrouded in the south coast, and no one dares to easily anger him.

Because he is Sauron.

Modo City needs a tentacle that extends to the mainland. Building the base in overseas archipelagos does not mean completely giving up the mainland. Many of the resources that Sauron needs must be obtained from the mainland.

This is impossible to do with Port Taylor.

Since the rise of Modo City, the Ocean Temple has less and less effect on Modo City, and Sauron cannot directly compete with the Ocean Goddess for territory.

The City of Wealth is the lady's private place. Modo City's hands cannot be stretched too long, which can easily cause the lady's dissatisfaction.

Remove these two places. All that are left are Viper Island, Nusha Island and Shipwreck Bay.

Viper Island is just a transit station near the coast, which can basically be ruled out. Nusha Island is in charge of the Oriental Trade Route and is far from the mainland. The shipwreck bay is an option, but the personnel are too mixed, and the forces of all parties are intertwined, and many churches of gods are also mixed. Soren does not want to arouse too much hostility, so he can only give up here.

Excluding these places, there are not many options left.

Fengmao Hills have always been within the layout of Sauron. He even started to arrange the plans here very early.

Adele Isabella is in charge of everything here, from Sauron's arms.

Fengmao Hills are not a large land.

However, there is also a convenient place here, which is that it can lead directly to the north. The intelligence organizations in Modo City have long been spread here, and one-third of the wanderers in the semi-elves church have been sent here.

【Roamer】The clergy is a convenience.

In addition to cultivating pastors, Sauron's church is also constantly cultivating more wanderers.

The catastrophe of the Saint broke out.

The Wind Spear Hills were also within the scope of the impact, but because of the interference of Modo City, the Wind Spear Hills did not receive too much influence from the Abyss Demon. At least the population and towns were lost, but a few villages were destroyed.

but!

The biggest problem with the Saint Catastrophe is more than just a little bit.

The weakening of the plane barrier is not only allowed to enter the demons of the bottomless abyss. The creatures in other lower planes can also enter the material plane.

Of course, other people will deal with ordinary things.

Even small things that can attract Sauron's attention will be extraordinary. As a god, it would not be given to Sauron's hands if it weren't for a legendary event.

It happened about three days ago!

……………………

There is a village on the edge of Fengmao Hills, with a population of about 800 people. Because it is located in a remote place, the people are strong. The village has retired adventurers and their own militia guards.

Even if such a village encounters a small number of demons, it can rely on its own abilities to support it.

but!

Just three days ago, someone suddenly found that there was no living person in the village, and there were corpses everywhere in the village. The strangest thing was that most of these people committed suicide!

suicide.

That's right!

This is the problem and the reason why it was delivered to Sauron as soon as possible.

Something else might need to be mentioned here.

Because of the particularity of the soul and the rules of the multiverse, suicide is not allowed in any church of gods. Many gods in the kind camp think that suicide is a serious crime. This is related to the kingdom of gods and cannot be explained clearly in a few words. But in a simple summary, the souls of suicide will be affected. This type of soul is not excellent enough, or is not enough to enter the kingdom of gods. Many gods even refuse to accept the souls of suicides.

Simply put, that's it.

There are specific things like "redemption", so there is no need to say more here.

"The soul of the suicide will fall into hell!"

This is certainly not a joke.

In fact!

According to the rules of the multiverse, more than 90% of those who end their lives by suicide will fall into the Barto Hell.

This is also why many evil rituals controlled by devils in secret will end their lives by suicide. This is a relatively mysterious soul field, and it may take Sauron to understand it after entering the Kingdom of God, because the speculation in the mortal world is that the soul of the suicide person cannot meet some requirements of the Kingdom of God.

certainly.

A group of people commit suicide is not the weirdest thing, because some powerful devils can do this too.

Often, these devils return to Batto Hell after harvesting their souls. Many churches of gods are staring at these guys on the material plane, because pan-faith is a common thing, and these souls harvested by the devil belong to believers in many churches of gods. The real reason why the following reports to Sauron immediately is that these suicides all smile and end their lives with a distorted and terrifying happy expression.

It kills people with a happy face!

After receiving the news, Sauron immediately attracted attention, because very few people could do this in his memory.

One of them is called [Hell Poet]!

……………………

Wind spear hills, dead leaves village.

Sauron's figure appeared near this village shrouded in the breath of death and the stench. Long before sending the news to him, the secret whistle in Modo City had already begun to monitor the place. The civilians in the village had been dead for a while, and there was a strong smell of corpse everywhere. But it was strange that there were no crows and scavengers here.

Very strange?

Crows, vultures, coyotes and other scavengers like to feed on corpses. There are hundreds of corpses here, but no scavengers appear, just allowing them to rot over time.

"The devil's means!"

Sauron opened his eyes, and a divine light appeared in his eyes. A blood-red spiritual light was shrouded in the village ahead, which was an extremely evil force.

The power of the devil!

There is no soul. Even if the divine vision passes through the barrier and sees the spiritual world and the shadow plane, Sauron does not find any soul.

Only the gradually decaying corpses remain here.

Even the shadow of a resentful spirit cannot be seen, and the devil has taken away all his soul.

"Is it [the praise of death]?"

Soren looked down at the corpses at his feet, with strange smiles hanging on them. There were destroyed altars in the center of the village, and there were many corpses all over the body nearby. They held a ceremony before their death.

A ritual that looks joyful and beautiful but is actually extremely evil!

"This is?...a musical instrument!..."

Sauron's figure fell from mid-air, and he found a recorder on the ground, next to it was a young man. He should have been playing the recorder before committing suicide.

There were other instruments not far away, and before this happened, maybe they were having some kind of celebration.

"It seems to be the work of the poet of hell!"

As the most powerful minstrel in the material plane, the poet of Hell mastered certain special and terrifying chanting spells. Before he fell, he was a powerful chantist. His famous work was to commit suicide in a certain celebration.

Prologue of Hell in Revelation.

"Praise of Dusk".

"Praise of Death".

Among the terrible abilities mastered by the poet of Hell, there are too many magical ways to do this.

"He's back?"

Sauron stood there silently, but his expression gradually became serious.

Since Sauron killed the Son of the Vampire God, the figure of the Hell poet disappeared. He could no longer see his trace in the material plane, and there was no news about him in the church of the Son of the Vampire God. Sauron was not sure whether he was hiding somewhere in the material plane or returning to Batto Hell.

This dangerous guy has been active in Batto Hell for a long time.

"It looks like he's back."

A trace of murderous intent appeared in Sauron's eyes. The poet of hell did a very beautiful action this time, without any trace left. Even though Sauron was a true god, he could not find him through other means. The souls here were harvested too clean. If even only one soul was left, Sauron could find the other party's trace.

The poet of hell is very careful!

He seemed to have known that Sauron had mastered the [tracking] clergy, and after everything was over, he erased any traces of himself.

The minstrel is just a pirated profession.

But if he is as powerful as a poet of hell, he will be comparable to legendary raiders and legendary raiders in many basic abilities.

“Huh?”

Sauron suddenly frowned, and he raised his hand and waved the ashes of the bonfire in front of him, something floated out of the ashes of the bonfire. It was a black feather buried in the bonfire, as if the flames did not burn it.

"Fallen Angel?!"

Sauron picked up the black feather and looked at it, his expression suddenly became playful, and he murmured: "Did he stayed on purpose? Or did he forget it accidentally?"
Chapter completed!
