Chapter 64: Nyx Trail
The newborn god opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was the boundless night, and two ancient gods who had a stronger sense of "presence" than the night.
One was the master of this place, and the entire interface was resonating with her; the other was also in harmony with the power of the spiritual world, and seven layers of phantoms were displayed in the vision of divinity.
In the perception of the god of sleep, two vast auras connected the sky and the earth, and he could be crushed into dust by just raising his hand.
Subconsciously a little nervous, Hypnos couldn't help but clench a deep purple flute in his hand. It was his companion artifact, part of [Sleep] [Dream], and a little [Chaos] and [Music] in the spiritual world.
The lullaby played with it can make all gods fall into dreams, and can also make all living beings lose their minds in their dreams and please the gods in fighting.
".Hypnos, meet the Father God and the Mother God."
The alert was only for a moment, and even Ryan couldn't find it if he didn't observe carefully enough. The next moment, the newborn god showed a humble and admiring look.
As a person who is "born with knowledge", Hypnos knew that the two gods in front of him were his "parents". Since they created him, they naturally did not want to hurt him. Moreover, in front of these two terrible beings, the god of sleep did not think that his vigilance had any meaning.
Instead of showing "fangs", it is better to be gentle and harmless.
".Father God? Haha, according to the tradition of Chaos, it seems to be the case."
Seeing the change in Hypnos's expression, Ryan was stunned at first, and then smiled.
For gods, power is far more profound than blood connection. The power of Ryan and Nix jointly created the gods in front of them, so from a legal point of view, they will indeed be regarded as parents by each other.
Just refer to Uranus and Gaia to know how unreliable this kind of parent-child relationship without blood is. Moreover, this is the world of Chaos. In the myths of later generations, fathers and sons killing each other is commonplace for gods and mortals.
On the side, Nyx's expression was not very real under the black veil. She ignored Hypnos's greetings, just turned her head to look at Ryan, and said lightly:
"Since the problem has been solved, you can take him away."
"As for the reward for this matter-"
Nyx finally believed Ryan's previous explanation. She also felt that no one could spy on her fate without her knowledge.
Since Ryan did not do it intentionally, she should naturally give some return gifts.
But in the empty land of eternal night, there is nothing to be used as a return gift.
So Nyx stretched out her hand and tore off a corner of the hem. With a light shake, the torn fabric turned into black silk cloth.
The fabric is just an appearance. In fact, she tore off a small part of [Nyx's Black Dress]. For Ms. Ye, this artifact can't go any further anyway, so the loss of this little power is nothing.
"It's yours."
With a light snort, Nyx threw the black cloth to Ryan, turned around, and silently merged into the night of the Land of Eternal Night.
Looking at this scene, Ryan couldn't help but laugh.
"Hehe——"
"Hypnos, it seems that your 'Mother Goddess' doesn't like you very much."
Taking the black cloth filled with the power of [Secret], Ryan turned his head and looked at the newborn god.
But as soon as he said this, he clearly felt that the surrounding night had a slight sense of rejection towards him.
Facing Nyx's subtle warning, Ryan said no more.
"So, Father God, will I live with you in the future?"
Looking a little sad about the departure of the 'Mother Goddess', Hypnos looked at Ryan with expectant eyes.
Looking at this scene, Ryan had no intention of being soft-hearted. He knew very well that the evil god who was mixed with some chaotic source power during the gestation process was not a good man or a believer.
For Hypnos, if he hadn't felt the difference in power between the two sides, and Ryan's control over his divine duties as the Lord of the Spirit World, he probably wouldn't care about this so-called 'Father God' at all.
But Ryan didn't care.
"Come with me, and you too."
Signaling Hypnos and the three thousand demigod dream evil spirits around him to follow, Ryan turned and walked towards the way in.
The God of Sleep hurriedly followed. Although he was just born, he also vaguely realized that in this area full of night, if he walked around without guidance, he would probably end up in a bad way.
······
Following the path he came from, Ryan walked all the way.
Perhaps it was because when the God of Sleep was conceived before, Ms. Night allowed the power of the spirit world to explore the land of eternal night. Now, this road seems to really have some mysterious power. The night slightly avoided it, and the local creatures did not dare to act rashly here.
Even without Ms. Night's guidance, Ryan still walked out smoothly. Until he crossed the boundary between the night and the underworld, he looked back at the place he had walked.
Under the divine vision, a faint halo shrouded the road, but it changed with Ryan's departure.
This is a manifestation of a little chaos in the Land of Eternal Night, and the spaces inside it may change. But no matter how it changes, this road infected by the power of the spiritual world will always be preserved, but the location may change.
In the future, if someone is lucky enough to get guidance, he can follow the road that Ryan once walked and enter and exit the Land of Eternal Night safely under the protection of the power of the spiritual world.
Of course, the premise of all this is that Ms. Ye is not interested in him. The remaining aura in the spiritual world can drive away the creatures under the night, but it is impossible to resist the ancient creation god himself.
"Hypnos." Turning around, Ryan asked casually: "Did you see that guy over there?"
"Yes, Father God."
Bowing slightly, the young spirit looked into the distance.
Above the River Styx, there was clearly nothing, but in Hypnos' perception, a violent wave of emotions was hovering there, unabashedly showing its existence to the outside world.
The current gods, or the gods of Chaos, have always been like this. They often sense and hide through divine power and form, but are defenseless against spiritual aspects.
Someone as powerful as Zeus would be sent into a dream by the original mythical god of sleep without noticing. In the face of the spiritual gods who are directly observed from the spiritual level, the God of West Wind is hidden as if he does not exist.
"Father God, do you need me to deal with him?"
With a gentle smile on his face, Hypnos asked softly.
"Go ahead and capture him."
Nodding, Ryan agreed to Hypnos' request.
Similar to the Twelve Titans, although Hypnos did not reach the limit allowed by the priesthood when he was born, he still has the power of a weak god in the middle.
In a head-on battle, he may not be a match for Fengshen. But seeing that Zhifelos was still unaware, Ryan knew that the battle would be over soon.
