You are not allowed to do underworld operations in the world of the living!

“……” The word “emperor” on Lucifer’s face shrank into a ball: “You are really fucking sick!”
……
A pale light with a hint of blue was surging across the sky.
In the midst of coral, stands a huge trident.
The old man in gray robe with white beard stood in mid-air, continuously transmitting divine power to the trident.
Next to the trident, two people and a cat were each putting their hands on the trident with painful expressions.
“What… are you doing?” Lucifer asked.
At this moment, the scene in front of him was extremely clear and real, as if it was happening right in front of him. It was hard to imagine that this was Jiang Lu’s memory.
“At that time, Nodens was going to transfer his divine power to us, so that we could ambush Nyarlathotep’s incarnation in Hyperborea and then summon him. What is going on now is the ceremony of handing over the divine power.”
Jiang Lu explained:
“I hadn’t recovered my strength at that time. Zeus’s true body seemed to be in the battlefield of the underworld. This was just his incarnation, so it was also very weak. If we didn’t do it this way, we would not be qualified to deal with Nyarlathotep.”
He explained carefully, but Lucifer’s focus was entirely on other details.
“You mean, this isn’t Zeus’s real body? Then why did he send his clone here?”
“To have fun.” Jiang Lu replied: “Maybe he has been in the battlefield of the underworld all the time and has no chance to have sex. He has gone crazy a long time ago.”
“……” Lucifer stood in awe: “Even at this time…He never disappoints anyone.”
“Never mind that. Take a closer look at Nodens, the old man. Can you tell what level he is at?”
“Very strong.” Lucifer’s face was solemn. “I can see that this is not his full strength, but it has reached the threshold of the Supreme God. But to be precise, I can’t tell for the time being.”
“I think so too.” Jiang Lu nodded. “I didn’t think anything of it at the time, but now I see that his every move is in line with the avenue, and it’s natural. It’s as if he has merged with the world just by standing there. This is a standard characteristic of a supreme god.”
Suddenly, Lucifer became alert: “What are those?”
He pointed into the distance and saw something rolling thousands of meters away, surrounding the area centered on the trident.
“Huh?” Jiang Lu looked intently, as if he was confirming something.
Then he said with relief: “Oh, that’s because the material is missing.”
“What do you mean?”
“That’s right. This is my memory after all, you know?” Jiang Lu explained with gestures: “I can only reproduce what I have seen, but what I haven’t seen can only be replaced with fillers.”
“Hmm…” Lucifer said with a strange expression: “I think I understand.”
The scene was so real that he forgot for a moment that it was just a reappearance of his memory.
At this point, the ceremony of delivering divine power has been completed.
During this time, Jiang Lu watched from the sidelines as his past self sprayed Nordens’ trident with water.
Lucifer saw it too, but he pretended not to see it.
Accompanied by a rough roar from Nodens – “Get out”, Jiang Luzeus and Huang Xiu’e disappeared from the spot and were teleported to where Nyarlathotep was.
“There’s also a battle between Nodens and Nyarlathotep later on. Let’s go check it out.”
Jiang Lu said as he prepared to pull the memory progress bar back:
“But I want to remind you that this is just one of his incarnations, not the one next to the Yin Emperor, nor the one that was transformed into Hell through Xila. Don’t mess around when the time comes. We can only watch, not influence, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.”
“I know.” Lucifer said that he already knew it.
He knew that this was not just a matter of checking memories like searching the soul, but was equivalent to reliving history. If it was changed at will, it might affect the future and cause serious consequences.
Jiang Lu saw that Lucifer knew what was going on, so he didn’t say much: “Then let’s go.”
But just as he was about to start rowing, Lucifer suddenly pressed down his tentacles with his wings.
“Do you feel like something’s wrong?” he asked cautiously.
“What’s wrong?” Jiang Lu felt strange.
“Didn’t you say… this is your memory, and it can only reproduce the scenes you have seen?”
“Yes what’s the matter?”
“Then why…” Lucifer’s voice became very small: “You have been teleported away, but the things in this scene still exist. There is no lost material, and it is not filled with the fillers you mentioned?”
Jiang Lu was stunned, then looked down.
At some point, Nodens had raised his head and was staring straight at the place where Jiang Lu and Lucifer were hiding.
Chapter 454 The Truman Show?
“…”
Jiang Lu and Nodens looked at each other for about ten seconds.
Then he moved the “Friendship Boat” and rowed it to the side.
As expected, Nordens also moved his gaze to the side, always following the “Friendship Boat”.
Now Jiang Lu was sure.
“He’s watching us.” He said to Lucifer, “I’ve confirmed it.”
Lucifer, who had been holding his breath nervously since he found that Nordens was looking at them, lowered his voice and said, “Do you need to confirm this? If not at us, what else could he be looking at?!”
“Don’t worry.” Jiang Lu comforted him, “He is on our side, so it’s no big deal even if he finds out. The only problem is that we are not on the same level, so how did he find out?”
“No big deal? Is it really no big deal?”
Lucifer was almost mad: “You just said not to do anything rash, what if this affects the future?”
Jiang Lu thought about it and felt that this was the truth. In order to avoid any unnecessary complications, he immediately wanted to fast forward to the next scene.
But at this moment, Nordens below suddenly spoke.
“I saw that I would meet two friends today, but I didn’t expect that the other one would not be Zeus who came with me, but you.”
His serious expression just now relaxed in an instant:
“Even though you use a boat, your spiritual scent won’t change.”
“What…does that mean?” Lucifer realized something: “Did he expect us to come here?”
Jiang Lu was stunned for a moment, then he reacted. Could it be that although he and Lucifer appeared here on a whim, it was actually inevitable that they would happen?
Thinking about it, he tentatively leaned out half of his body and waved to Nodens below: “Long time no see.”
But strangely, Nordens did not respond to him.
Just as he was feeling strange, Nodens continued, “If you are planning to communicate with me now, I can only regretfully tell you that I can’t see you or hear you speak.”
“Is this true?” Jiang Lu was skeptical. It was obvious that as long as they moved slightly, Nodens’s gaze would move with them. How could he not see it?
“I know you may not believe it, but you are spying on the present from the future through the ship. We are not in the same time and space. Logically, no one should be able to detect your existence.”
Nodens explained:
“But, except me.
Because you are on a boat, and a boat is the symbol of those guys. In the long struggle with them, I have suffered a lot because of this method of theirs.
So I have already learned how to observe the existence of ships, and also learned how to counterattack, so that they can roll out of the spiritual river and suffer damage at the same time.
I was going to do that just now, but luckily I recognized you.
If you were in the past before you met me, I would probably treat you the same way I treated those guys.”
Hearing this, Jiang Lu was surprised and a little scared at the same time.
What’s surprising is that there is really a stratagem that can defeat something else. Nordens was able to successfully crack the normally uncounterable method of crossing the spiritual river.
What I’m afraid of is that if Jiang Lu didn’t want to show Lucifer how he got here through the ghoul’s lair, and directly moved the progress bar to here, and appeared in front of the other party before his past self met Nodens, wouldn’t he be treated as an Old One and attacked severely?
“There is another person next to you, and he is not Zeus,” Nodens continued.
Jiang Lu answered subconsciously: “It’s Lucifer.”
Lucifer tugged at Jiang Lu’s tentacle: “Didn’t he say he couldn’t hear you?”
“It’s Lucifer, right?” Nodens smiled. “In the entire universe, the only person whose spirit is filled with pride is that person.”
“Uh…” Lucifer was stunned: “I don’t know him, but he knows me?”
For a moment, Lucifer suddenly felt like he was being targeted by a pervert.
“If I had seen him know so much before, I would probably be as surprised as you are.”
Jiang Lu paused:
“But now, I’m not surprised at all. I’m just curious, how much more has he hidden?”
At the same time, Nodens continued to talk to himself in the void:
“Seeing you two together, I think I’ve understood. Not only the underworld and the underworld, but also hell has probably begun to take shape. I don’t know what Nyarlathotep did to hell, but since Lucifer has put aside his pride and stood with you, then the situation must be very bad, right?”
It was as if Nordens had activated a full-map cheat. Even though he couldn’t see Jiang Lu and Lucifer or hear them talking, he could still accurately point out their current situation and tell them what they were most interested in at the moment.
“Seeing that you already have the ability to control the ship, and your spiritual light is no less than that of Lucifer, I can now safely say some things that I couldn’t say just now.
The underworld has been destroyed. I am not talking about your time and space, but right now, the underworld has been completely destroyed.
Hades still failed. He was only one step away from transforming into an ancient god. Nyarlathotep didn’t want another enemy who could rival me in this world, so he used the power of the underworld to stop him.
But he is not dead yet. At the last moment, he sacrificed the hundred-armed giant, the three-headed dog, the Titans, and all the creatures in the underworld. He turned into a cocoon, sealed all the remaining power of the underworld in it, and sent it to the Dreamland, where I protected it. “
“Cocoon?” Jiang Lu and Lucifer looked at each other and said, “Is it the one in the underworld that An Dan saw?”
“That’s probably it.”
“Zeus came to me to get the cocoon back, but I don’t intend to give it to him.”
Nordens went on to say:
“His current strength is not enough to protect it. It is safest only in the Dreamland. And if everything goes well, if he can successfully capture Nyarlathotep’s incarnation, then maybe the cocoon that Hades has transformed into can absorb its power, and maybe he can be reborn after a period of time.”
“I said that no matter how reckless Zeus was, he couldn’t sneak out of the battlefield in the underworld to have fun at that moment.”
Lucifer suddenly realized:
