Chapter 74 - Audron's Memories Era of the Gods
Here is Chapter 74 of "MMORPG: War God, You are Invincible Again": Lu Hong stepped onto the stairs to the Blood Temple with an unwavering stride.âWarrior, please,... Donât miss it!
Lu Hong stepped onto the stairs to the Blood Temple with an unwavering stride.
âWarrior, please, think thrice before you act, do not be rash.
We can discuss your class change further!â Audron, with a snot and tears, called out from behind.
His voice trailed off as he pleaded with desperation.
Just when Audron was about to despair, Lu Hong came to a sudden halt, turned around, and scampered back.
âWarrior, have you reconsidered?â Audron, seeing Lu Hong turn back, was overjoyed and hurriedly went forward to greet him.
âGet lost,â Lu Hong said without even looking at Audron and ran straight to Lai Liâs side.
âThat, Princess Linglong?â Lu Hong carefully greeted her, seeing her stubborn demeanor and knowing she probably hadnât recovered from the sudden incident just before.
âWhat do you want?
If you have anything to say, go find that old man, heâs the one fawning over you,â Lai Li said tersely, giving Lu Hong a cold glance.
Even though the elderâs intention to kill her wasnât closely related to Lu Hongâand he had spoken up to save herâher annoyance was not something she could easily dismiss, and her tone was very indifferent.
âThat, could you do me another favor and add a skill to my greatsword that can harm wraiths?â Lu Hong almost forgot about this matter.
If he didnât get it done, his entry into the Holy Temple would indeed be a life-or-death ordeal.
âMy strength has been drained; I cannot do it,â Lai Li turned away, still angry.
âSis, help me out, will you?â Lu Hong nudged Lai Li with his elbow, trying to coax her.
âNo, I wonât,â Lai Li pushed Lu Hong away and refused to comply with the request.
âSis, oh sis!â Lu Hong circled around Lai Li three times, completely out of ideas.
What to do?
Suddenly, Lu Hong had a thought.
He turned to Audron, who was still waiting nearby, and shouted, âHey you, come here!â
âWarrior is summoning me?â Audron hurriedly scurried over.
âYou make her add a skill to my weapon that can harm wraiths,â Lu Hong commanded.
âNo, I cannot,â Audron heard the command and shook his head hastily.
âHmm?â Lu Hongâs tone suddenly became sharp, âDidnât we agree youâd listen to me?
Are you backtracking now?â
âThisâŚâ Audron really couldnât bring himself to be shameless this time.
âFine, Iâll do as you asked,â Audron finally agreed to Lu Hongâs request and approached Lai Li, saying, âYou, add a skill to our warriorâs weapon, you hear me!â
âI wonât!
I have no strength left, I canât do it!â Lai Li stubbornly replied.
âI didnât drain all of your strength, I left you with some, didnât I?
Complete the warriorâs request immediately, or donât blame me for being rude!â Audron said indifferently, clearly threatening her.
Although it was a blatant threat, Lai Li eventually yielded to Audronâs tyranny.
Reluctantly, she muttered the spell.
Moments later, a gray light fell onto the greatsword in Lu Hongâs hands.
âItâs done, that will suffice,â Lai Li snorted coldly.
âThank you, Princess Linglong!â Having received the buff, Lu Hong immediately dashed toward the Blood Temple again.
âLord Warrior, please donât act on impulse!
Come back!â Seeing Lu Hong running towards the temple again, Audron chased after him, crying out loudly.
It wasnât until Lu Hong rushed into the temple that Audron, with a grimace, slouched and walked back dejectedly.
âYoung lady, may I ask if the warrior truly has fallen?â Audron, with nothing else to do, then asked Lai Li.
âYes,â Lai Li had no desire to speak with Audron, but fearing the elderâs cruel treatment, she reluctantly responded.
Audron, unconcerned with Lai Liâs attitude, continued, âThe heavens pity our Human Raceâs lineage, that we should suffer such a calamity.
Young lady, do you have any idea how powerful my warriors were back in the day?â
âI do not know,â Lai Li replied, still with great reluctance.
âOf course, you wouldnât know.
In those days, the Human Race was feeble, cowering in the southeast corner of the Continent of Godâs Grace, enduring the bullying of various tribes for years, and adjacent to the Abyss Gate, surrounded by formidable enemies,â Audron began his story slowly, recalling the past, âJust when the existence of our race was on the brink, the War God emerged, rallied the Human Race under its battle flag to quell the nuisance of those tribes, and upheld our raceâs divine might.
Thereafter, for over two hundred years, the Human Race flourished, officially recognized as one of the ten powerful tribes of Godâs Grace, commanding a region of our own.
Unfortunately, the good times didnât last.
The Abyss Human Race had been eyeing Godâs Grace for a long time, hoping to reclaim this land once again.
In the end, they launched the Interdimensional War, which came to be recorded as the Battle of the Abyss.â
âAre you talking about the Era of the Gods?â Audronâs few words quickly ignited Lai Liâs interest.
âThe Era of the Gods?
You could say that, but youâre interested in hearing more?â
âUh huh, please tell me, I love stories.
What happened after the Battle of the Abyss?â
âAlright then,â Audron said, âDo you know the origin of the Abyss Human Race?â
Lai Li shook her head and guessed, âIs there a Human Race in the Abyss as well?â
âCorrect.â Audron nodded, âThere was nothing originally capable of breeding life in the Abyss; itâs an extremely twisted world that causes irreversible changes in any species that live in it.
Originally, the Human Race was so oppressed by the various tribes that a faction proposed seeking refuge in the Abyss.
The suggestion caused great controversy and ultimately led to discord within our race.
One part of the Human Race chose to enter the Abyss, while another remained on the Continent of Godâs Grace, hiding and seeking refuge.â
