The Children of Hell have been very busy these days.The Cult of the Mechanics in the Wasteland Hell is busy descending on the Soul and expanding its strength to face the fifth onslaught of the Tinder Source that will soon arrive.Icarus and several mechanical sages under her command were busy with their feet on the ground, and even Zatana and Raven, who were in charge of making Horcruxes, were forced to live in the mystery house for almost half a month.The speed at which they could craft special Horcruxes was not slow, but compared to the sheer needs of the Cult of the Mechanica, that number was far from sufficient.In the end, even Merlin had to join in.Outside the wasteland, the Frontier Queen received the promised reward and took the Hell legion borrowed from the Two Kings Hell to begin a large-scale cleanup of the remaining zombies and demons in her own land.On the other side of the Two Kings Hell, Daemon and Satana, siblings, are busy intriguing with the disobedient Demon Kings of Hell.After snatching nearly 60 legions of Hell from Berret, the siblings finally have their own power, with the help of the ever-fusing power of Hell.After a while, they are expected to have the upper hand in the infighting.But to completely control the Hell of the Two Kings, the two brothers and sisters are still busy.Johnny splits his way between the Frontier of Hell and the Two Kings of Hell, appearing as a thug, either helping Liana burn zombie demons or helping Daemon assassinate the superior demons who disobey him.Even Asazzo, who has always been a salted fish, acts as a messenger in the three hells and on earth.Merlin was desperate to feel the pressure of the lack of manpower, but he didn't rush to admit more members to the Hellchildren organization.His mind is clear.After swallowing the big fat meat of the Twin Kings Hell, they must take the time to digest it, and it is not appropriate to launch a large-scale operation for the time being, and they really need to keep a low profile, so as not to be dealt with by the other Hell Lords.Especially Mephistopheles...
After knowing that Merlin was resurrected and became the Lord of Hell, that bad old man would definitely not sit still.A lot of things are in a hurry, you have to do it little by little.Merlin's fingers let go, the carving knife formed by the orange light dissipated, and in the beautiful light flash, the rune of a Horcrux was inscribed.The Horcrux required by the Cult of the Mechanics is used to carry soul fragments, so it is not as complicated as the Horcrux used by Merlin when he faked his death.Overall, it's like a small metal box.It's like an enlarged version of a USB flash drive.Magical runes are engraved on the metal surface to prevent the soul from escaping, and the thing is placed into the body of the machine like a special socket module.As for the magic that activates the Horcrux, it is provided by the energy of the Horcrux itself.The energy and magic conversion apparatus has been made, and the blueprint was provided by Lord Doom.Dom developed the theory of energy and magic conversion a long time ago, and it was with this theory that he united with Merlin to save the Fantastic Four who were radiated by the energy of the universe at Baxter Tower.But what the chicken thief guy handed over to the Mechanics was the original version of the Mana Converter, which was particularly inefficient and not very durable.But Merlin's friends weren't in vain.After getting Doom's drawings, Merlin contacted Reed through Fury.
Dr.
Richards, who commissioned him to improve Doom's drawings.It only took the doctor 2 days to send back the revised drawings.This incident made Doom's teeth itch with hatred, and the relationship between him and Dr.
Reed was very complicated, in addition to being rivals in love, the two had never stopped fighting on the intellectual level.In the eight months since Merlin's death, it is said that the Fantastic Four also had some conflicts with Doom."
Huh?"
Just as Merlin moved his fingers, ready to continue making the Exorcus Horcrux, he suddenly felt a familiar aura descending on the wasteland prison.In the canyon outside the gates of hell, to be exact.It is the border of the Wasteland Prison, a buffer zone where you will not be captured by the Wasteland.Merlin's figure disappeared into the laboratory, and when he reappeared, he came to the gates of hell, and sure enough, there was a "guest" waiting for him.Old acquaintances.Archangel Gabriel."
Are your heaven's resources so tight?"
Merlin fell to the ground and said to the archangel in front of him, dressed in a suit and with his arms crossed, "There is not even a messenger, and you are asked to go out every time?"
”"It's just a sign of respect."
Gabriel had a cold face, and she said, "After all, it is not appropriate to send an angel of the stars to meet a lord of hell...
Okay, without further ado, my lord agreed to your request last time. ”"Spear of Fate?"
Merlin blinked in surprise, and he said, "Is it so generous?"
”"Of course it wasn't for nothing!"
The archangel snorted, she looked left and right, and walked towards Merlin, a ray of golden light falling around the two of them, enveloping the canyon floor like a golden eggshell.Merlin's expression became a little more serious.This is obviously the Archangel has a top-secret message to tell him."
My lord says he will give you the spear of destiny at the right time, but it is not gratuitous."
The archangel spread his hands and explained: "My lord is a benevolent leader, and he does not force the people of heaven to do anything, so something like giving away the spear of destiny must come up with a reason to obey the people." ”"After all, it is one of the supreme holy relics of heaven, and if you give it away rashly, it will definitely cause unnecessary waves."
Gabriel looked at Merlin, who nodded in understanding."
So, my lord needs you to do something for heaven."
The archangel lowered her voice and said, "You are going to bring back your exiled people for heaven." ”“？”
A look of confusion flashed across Merlin's face.He asked, "How do I not know that there are other outcasts in your heaven besides the fallen angels who followed Lucifer's rebellion?"
”"It's normal that you don't know."
The archangel smiled a little sadly, and she said: "That hidden tragedy, in the whole heaven, only my lord and a few archangels know, if it were not for the spear of fate, we would not have brought it up again." ”"Well, interesting."
Merlin's eyes narrowed.He smelled gossip, and it was definitely a very hot secret."
Tell me about it."
Merlin waved his arms outward, and in the flow of orange light, two chairs appeared beside them.Gabriel was not polite, and sat down in her chair, and after a moment of her words, she said to Merlin, "It was a tragedy that happened in ancient times. ”"About 3,000 years ago, when the Eternal War was still in full swing, it was not reduced to a dispensable game like it is now, when the battlefields of heaven and hell were all over the world, and almost every god system was involved in it to one greater or less.""
That tragedy happened on a fringe battlefield."
With a flick of the archangel's finger, a projection of the stars appeared before Merlin's eyes.The latter looked at it, then raised an eyebrow and said, "This is the territory of the World Tree, the territory of the Asgardians...
You were fighting in front of someone's house, and Odin, who was still in the prime of life at the time, could endure this?
”"Of course he can't bear it."
The archangel shook his head and said, "He has expelled us and Hell several times, and even wanted to drive us out permanently, but the eternal war cannot be stopped by the God King, and it is almost a rule among the stars. ”"In short, after several conflicts, a treaty has been signed between our Lord, Hell, and the God King."
Gabriel's finger pointed to the corner of the star's projection, and she drew a circle that was not too small or small, and she said: "The scope of the battlefield is limited here, and no one side is allowed to spread the war at will, and there was no problem in the first few hundred years, but in a certain war, Lucifer suddenly sent hundreds of legions of hell to this battlefield. ”"The defensive corps we left there was beaten and retreated."
The archangel seemed to recall the battle, and there was a hint of heaviness in her beautiful eyes, she said: "At that time, I was ordered to lead reinforcements to rescue the legions trapped there, but the elite under Lucifer's command kept us out of the battlefield. ”"My sisters have been forced to retreat to a planet, they are isolated, and perhaps a single assault by the fallen angels will be enough to wipe them out completely.""
In that case, one of my sisters, Archangel Haven, asked for help from the Asgardian Legion on the battlefield border, but Heimdall, the gatekeeper of the Commanding Legion, ignored it.""
Forced into desperation, she made a reckless decision."
At this point, the archangel paused.She looked at Merlin and said, "Do you know how many children Odin has?"
”"Two."
Merlin said, "Everyone knows it among the stars. ”"Wrong!"
Gabriel counted four fingers and said, "Odin has four children!"
”"In addition to Thor and Loki, he also sealed his rebellious daughter on Earth, Hela, the goddess of death, but even Hela the Slayer who followed him in the worlds was not his first daughter.""
Go on."
Merlin's fingers moved, and he became more and more interested in the story."
Anyway, while my sisters were trapped by the legions of hell and were on the verge of extinction, and the Asgardians were watching from the sidelines, my sister, Archangel Haven, received a message."
Gabriel sighed, and she said, "The daughter of Odin and the queen of heaven Frigga was born, and the whole country of Asgard celebrated, and even the Frontier Legion held a massive celebration. ”"One side is in a desperate situation, the other side is celebrating, and the commander of the army, Heimdall, has repeatedly rejected my sisters' requests for help, which has completely made my sisters lose their minds.""
She made a terrible, reckless decision.""

She infiltrated the Asgardian Divine Domain alone and snatched Odin's daughter from the Golden Palace, in order to coerce the God-King to send an army to save the desperate sisters."
Even though 3,000 years have passed, the archangel still clenches his fingers in pain when he talks about it.She said to Merlin, "I confess that she did something stupid, a sin that even my Lord cannot forgive, but what could she do then?"
Do you close your eyes and wait for death?
”Merlin has no comment.But if it were him, in that case, maybe..."
What's next?"
Merlin asked, "Did Odin send troops?"
”The archangel shook his head."
The God King didn't send troops because my sister couldn't get out of the Golden Palace at all.""
What happened that day is still a mystery, no one knows the whereabouts of Haven, she has probably been killed by the God King, but Odin has also lost his daughter, Heaven and Asgard have been at odds ever since, even that battlefield, too..."
Gabriel shook her head, she sighed, and said, "I was under that starry day, and I saw it with my own eyes." ”"The angry God-King has called upon the power of the World Tree to rip the planet where my sisters are hiding directly from the branches of the World Tree, throwing them into the Void Storm along with the world itself.""
And his wife, Frigga who lost her daughter, unleashed a terrible curse on my sisters in anger and despair.""
They are no longer noble, but their holy blood is turned into mortal bodies, and they add iniquity to their bodies without deliverance.""
They will suffer in life, and they will not be at peace when they die.""
They are cursed to return to heaven, and their souls can only fall into the Hell of the Asgardians, where they will suffer for eternity.""
But they're alive."
Merlin interrupted Gabriel's hymn-like words and said, "Otherwise, your lord would not have asked me to take them back." ”"Yes, they're alive."
The archangel said, "Wandering in the shadows of the World Tree's realm, we have been trying to bring them back for thousands of years, but Odin will not allow any angel to set foot in the realm of the gods. ”"Are you so cowardly?"
Merlin said, "Haven't you thought of breaking into the realm of the World Tree?
”"You're thinking it's simple."
Gabriel glanced at Merlin and said, "I think you've been speculating about why the Eternal War, which was in full swing thousands of years ago, became such a tepid ritual as it is now...
Right?
”"Let me tell you, the turning point of the Eternal War was the moment Odin joined the war.""
The loss of his daughter made Odin extremely angry, and he took the people of the Divine Domain to join the eternal war, not only attacking heaven, but also hell...
Do you know how many archangels died at the hands of Odin's spear, and how many hellish demon kings fell in war?
”The archangel snorted, she stretched out her hand to Merlin, and she said, "You don't know anything at all!"
”"Odin's fame was not earned by mercy and strength, but by the bones of countless angels and demons who fell at his feet.""
At the height of Odin's madness, Heaven and Hell even had to unite against him and the terrifying Divine Domain warriors under his command.""
Not to mention his second daughter, Hela, whose mastery of the Godhead of Death is simply unstoppable!""
If it weren't for Hela's eventual falling out with Odin, and the father-daughter cannibalism that caused Asgard to be demoralized and had to withdraw from the war, the Eternal War would never be what it is now.""
Oh, I see."
Merlin stood up, and he said in a strange tone, "So the 'Armistice Covenant' was actually prepared for Odin in the first place?
”Gabriel nodded.She ruffled her hair and said to Merlin, "That's all there is to it, because of past grievances, Heaven can't intervene in this matter directly, unless we plan to have another all-out war." ”"But you can, you don't have a good relationship with Odin, although he killed you once, he also helped you...
What my lord means is, whatever method you use, stealthily or negotiate openly. ”"As long as you can bring back the angels who were banished by Odin, the spear of fate will be given to you!"
Merlin didn't hesitate for long, either.After a few minutes, he stood up and said to the archangel, "Go back and tell your Lord." ”"I'll take over this job
