This Holy Knight is So Despicable!
Chapter 514 - 434 God Trap
CHAPTER 514: CHAPTER 434 GOD TRAP
Lette watched as Lilith turned the malicious injury into the shape of a blade, then, like an injection, she directly stabbed it into the Desecration Pillar.
As she gently pulled the bowstring, the divinity on the pillar was gradually extracted by her, gathering into a cloudy energy body in her right hand.
Seeing this, Lette couldn’t help but exclaim, "That’s an injection! Are you a mosquito by any chance?"
"What’s that?"
Lilith looked innocent: "My true form is an Enchanting Demon, you know, extracting energy is a natural ability for a Demon."
Lette clapped his hands: "Oh, so you use your innate divine ability, along with your divine artifact, to freely extract the divinity from your target?
I didn’t expect such a fitting combination."
"Lette, hurry and take this. There’s a lot of divinity, and I’m having trouble controlling it."
Lette nodded slightly, reaching to his waist and pulling out a shriveled piece of dried mushroom, tossing it onto the ground.
Once infused with a large amount of energy, this dried mushroom inflated like a balloon, rapidly growing taller than a person, a massive pillar.
"Just channel the energy into it."
"Can this handle it?"
"Heh, for ages, it’s better to channel energy away than to block it. Just inject the divinity, I’ll handle the rest."
Seeing Lette’s confidence, Lilith followed his advice, injecting the mixed energy into the enormous magic mushroom.
Visibly, the originally white magic mushroom suddenly turned all sorts of colorful black.
But this phenomenon didn’t last long, as the colors began to differentiate, finally concentrating in different parts of the mushroom.
Soon after, a variety of uniquely colored mushrooms grew out from the main body of the large mushroom.
These vibrant mushrooms exuded powerful divine power fluctuations, each one an exceptional divinity sought after by other gods.
After all, to find the Desecration Temple and successfully enter it, one had to be the elite among their factions.
Typical small fries, even if luck brought them here, would be ruined by the first door and the subsequent traps.
"Successful."
Lette was as happy as a mushroom-picking repairman, plucking these diversely divine mushrooms and carefully storing them away.
These items can grant immense strength to those who consume them and trigger their potential.
Lette picked up a purple, curling mushroom and snapped it with his fingers, discovering it was as elastic as rubber.
"Lilith, look at how fun these magic mushrooms are!"
He held the mushroom high: "I want to give you a resounding name!
Since you are the fruit of Lilith’s hard work, and Lilith herself is a Demon!
How about calling you—
Demon Mushrooms!"
Lilith, still busy extracting divinity from the Desecration Pillar, couldn’t spare any words for this bizarre and inexplicably quirky name, simply giving Lette a big eye roll.
Lette, oblivious to Lilith’s little moods, focused intently on collecting all the magic mushrooms, thoughtfully organizing them by different attributes and inclinations.
"Unfortunately, as I predicted, most of the divinity here leans heavily towards desecration concepts.
Right, if they weren’t related to desecration, there’d be no point in coming here just to risk their lives."
But this trip wasn’t fruitless; these mushrooms can help cultivate my Mushroom King army.
Once the Demon King Army takes shape, my long-awaited Demon King plan will have a place."
With the last radiant mushroom blooming quietly, the power within the pillar had been entirely extracted.
Lilith withdrew the malicious injury, and with a thunderous collapse, the great hall’s pillars crumbled into dust.
First deprived of the Power of Profanation, and now having its hoarded divinity taken, the entire Desecration Temple became tottering, as if it might collapse any moment.
Lette suddenly grabbed Lilith’s hand, grinning broadly: "Lilith, let’s make a giant Divine Trap together."
Lilith suddenly had a flash of inspiration, a sly smile curling her lips.
"You’re so bad, but I love it! Come on, what do you want to add?"
Lette rubbed his chin: "To attract customers for a store, the first point is location, and the second is product selection!
Our product choice is set, and we can’t change the location.
So, we have to work on other aspects."
Although Lilith didn’t understand the initial part, she still enthusiastically asked.
"What other aspects?"
"An illusory treasure map!"
"A treasure map?"
Lette revealed the Key of Truth: "Guided by this, we found this place.
Of course, we’re here to repair it, on official business.
But if we create some fake treasure maps, directing people to this spot?"
"Wouldn’t that be too simple?"
Lette waved a finger: "You misunderstand, the simplest traps are the most effective.
If it’s too complex, it’s a burden for both parties.
Why does it take only three steps to put an elephant in a fridge?
It’s the simplicity, great sound is rarely heard, great paths are formless, great—"
Lilith quickly raised her hands in surrender: "Alright, alright, I get it, you’re right!
Let’s do it! Okay with the treasure map, it’s easy to make, and I can add some desecration aura to make it convincing."
Lette chuckled: "Advertising placement is an art.
The quality of the ad is one thing, but the platform it’s placed on is critical too.
If the platform is right, it means we can better reach our intended audience."
"By audience, you mean victims?"
"Same thing, more or less."
Lette’s tone shifted: "But in this case, if we go for too much suitability, it becomes suspicious.
So we shouldn’t choose the more suitable Demon Realm platform.
Instead, the Eternal Dragon Realm will be our publicity battleground!"
Lilith, catching Lette’s drift, suddenly understood.
"I see; because the trap is clumsy and the treasure map rough, it’s hard to fool anyone.
If we choose demons or devils for the promo channel, no one would fall for such an obvious trick.
But if we choose the Dragon Clan!
The whole thing becomes inscrutable! What seemed full of flaws seems more real when obscured!
Amazing! You’ve thought this through."
Lette confidently posed: "Tricking smart people is easier than tricking fools.
Just let them genuinely believe they’re clever, and they’ll fill in the gaps in our plan to protect their self-image."
Lilith shook her head repeatedly: "You really are bad."
As the two chatted excitedly about the trap, the Key of Truth floating mid-air began to hum.
