From Goblin to Goblin God - Chapter 414
Chapter 414: The Second Evil God, the Pot of Greed!
TL: Sungmin
“I have a general understanding of the information about the Evil Gods. I still need to ask Loael for some details. All of you, come over,” Lin Tian immediately instructed.
The information definitely had to be conveyed to everyone. Additionally, Loael’s information was also extremely important.
Because the Evil God Zeus was likely to summon this time might be the same as last time.
After all, it was easier to deal with acquaintances.
Everyone quickly put down what they were doing and hurried over, including Athena and the others.
All of them looked extremely grave.
Because they had already learned a little about the power of the Evil Gods and the terror of the Abomination army from Loael.
They were a group of extremely chaotic and evil existences.
Encountering them was a disaster and a misfortune.
Lin Tian then recounted the information he had obtained from Veronica one by one.
Hearing this, the One-Eyed Owl looked astonished. “What the hell, Smiling Angel? Can’t I just not look at her smile?”
The others also nodded in sudden realization.
Regarding this thing, they inexplicably felt their hair stand on end; it was very unsettling.
“Have you all forgotten? This Smiling Angel is in human form and very beautiful. Who can ensure they won’t see her at first glance?” Lin Tian said gravely.
Beautiful things were always particularly attractive.
This was probably why she was beautiful, to match that bizarre killing ability.
Now that he said it, everyone finally reacted.
Gobu Kuang scratched the few sparse hairs on his head, looking very troubled. “Boss, that Taboo Death God has so many taboos. I feel like it’s so hard to remember them all…”
Indeed, it was difficult for this half-wit among the goblins.
Lin Tian said helplessly, “Gobu Tian, help him write them down, and then just keep reciting them.”
This was no joking matter; those taboos absolutely could not be violated.
Everyone could not calm down for a long time.
Even Athena and the others were very scared.
“It’s over. If any Evil God descends, it’s almost impossible for us to win…”
“Accompanied by an army of hundreds of millions of Abominations, even if we gather all the creatures in the current world, excluding the old, weak, women, and children, we still can’t form an army of one hundred million that meets the strength requirement.”
“That guy Zeus, he’s simply crazy!”
Seeing this, Lin Tian looked at Athena and could not help but ask, “Oh? Looking at you all, it seems you didn’t understand the power of the Evil Gods before?”
One had to know they had summoned an Evil God once.
Athena, however, shook her head. “That is a ritual only Zeus knows. Of course, we know nothing about it, nor have we fought the summoned Evil God. We only know it’s very terrifying and powerful.”
This hit the nail on the head.
“Then tell me, what was the Evil God summoned last time? Loael fought him, so she can analyze his abilities in detail,” Lin Tian instructed.
Hearing this, Athena paused, then spoke thoughtfully, “If I remember correctly, it should be the Pot of Greed. However, he wasn’t ranked as the second strongest Evil God back then.”
To summon the second strongest Evil God, the amount of offerings consumed would be terrifying.
“Is that so? Princess Loael, what about the abilities of the Pot of Greed? According to Veronica, the tentacles in his pot seem to contain various elemental attacks, and can also wield weapons in battle, right?” Lin Tian then looked to the side.
His expression was very grave.
He had not expected the Evil God summoned last time to be that guy.
Now that he had become so powerful, if he were summoned again, the situation would not be optimistic.
Loael answered seriously, “Yes, it’s as she said. I fought him. At that time, there were hundreds or thousands of tentacles, wielding various weapons. The attacks were overwhelming, and I had no choice but to flee.”
“According to my estimation, at that time, he could at most differentiate into one thousand elemental, one thousand magical, and one thousand physical tentacles each. The weakest weapons used were World-class, and the strongest were Sun-Class. There were several hundred pieces in total.”
“These were not even his strongest methods. His strongest was that he could easily snatch weapons and use them directly without needing to break the magic imprints.”
“Also, if caught by a tentacle and dragged into the pot, that is, into his body, one would be devoured by darkness and chaos, merging to become his new tentacle! Furthermore, this tentacle could also inherit your abilities and magic.”
Hearing this, everyone’s faces darkened. It would be a lie to say they were not shocked.
A strong sense of powerlessness surged into their hearts.
Abominations were already difficult to deal with, let alone one so strong. Moreover, tens of thousands of years had passed since then!
Lin Tian frowned and slowly spoke, “No wonder he is now the second strongest Evil God. His abilities have such strong potential for improvement. I wonder what he has become now.”
Tens of thousands of years.
Who knew how many people he had devoured, how many powerful tentacles he had added.
He had probably plundered even more weapons and equipment, perhaps even weapons and equipment from higher planes.
After all, in the Abomination World, creatures from higher planes often went hunting.
Just like the Great Tomb and Uninhabited Zones in this world before, places where only monsters lived.
Naturally, adventurers would go there to hunt and fight.
“Alright, let’s focus on preparing to deal with this Pot of Greed. Of course, we can’t slack off on the others either,” Lin Tian instructed.
The first thing to do was to deal with the Pot of Greed, because Zeus had summoned him before, and it was highly likely he would summon him again.
They had to prevent their weapons from being snatched and deal with a large number of tentacles.
Basically, solving these two issues would be enough.
By dealing with the tentacles, they could avoid being dragged into the pot and devoured.
…
Mount Olympus.
Ever since the Plague Horseman had passed through, it had been lifeless.
Completely devoid of its former glory.
It appeared somewhat dilapidated.
The humans and demi-humans who served everyone here had either died or fled.
From their feet up to the temple, everything was empty.
And Zeus had already entered the secret realm inside the holy mountain.
On a patch of grass, a huge magic formation was drawn with blood.
Around it were placed four goat heads and an unknown heart.
The air was filled with the pungent smell of blood.
Zeus was currently panting heavily from exhaustion. “Finally completed the last step.”
He then placed a special ore from the Abomination World in the center of the magic formation.
It was not that this amount of work was tiring.
Rather, the drawing of this ritual magic formation used his own blood.
And it had to be the freshest blood.
The fresh here did not mean freshly drawn blood, but blood before it dried up, new blood quickly created by the body using medicine or magic.
Not even a slight error was permissible.
Because in the Abomination World, this type of blood was called holy dew, a drink that Evil Gods consumed daily.
Old blood was full of impurities and tasted very bad.
“Jie jie jie… Goblin, Athena, Loael, you all must die! And you will die very, very miserably!” Zeus’s somewhat pale face was filled with a crazed, ferocious smile!
He then put on a strange demonic mask and began to chant the summoning ritual!
“Om!”
The surrounding space inexplicably trembled, and a pitch-black mist began to form like a vortex!
It converged towards the strange ore in the center of the ritual.
This was also the key to the ritual, a stone from the Abomination World, named ‘Unstable Matter’.
The reason Zeus knew this ritual and possessed these things was because he had once tried to increase his speed to the extreme, directly breaking through the world barrier and rushing into the Abomination World.
From there, he learned and mastered the summoning ritual.
“Great Evil God, Pot of Greed! Please heed my summons. I will sacrifice half the flesh and blood of this world to summon your advent once more!” Zeus was currently like someone performing a shamanistic dance, his whole body trembling and contorting.
On the ground, the magic formation began to emit a crimson glow, as if it had been activated!
The previously black mist slowly merged with this red light, gradually forming the shape of a gate!
Zeus stood before the gate, his eyes filled with a hint of fear, and he quickly retreated several steps.
Boom!!!
From within the gate, a terrifying black aura gushed out, incomparably oppressive!
And a terrifying laughter was also heard, “Jie jie jie… Jie jie jie… Jie jie jie!!”
It echoed endlessly, making one’s soul feel crazed!
Zeus took off his mask, staring very vigilantly. “This voice, is it the Pot of Greed?”
Even though he himself had summoned the Evil God, he still had to deal with it carefully.
If things went wrong, he would run immediately.
Swish!
A crimson, slime-covered tentacle, also covered in bumps, flew out from the bottomless gate!
Then another one!
They rested on both sides of the gate.
A nauseating stench assaulted the senses!
“Long time no see, my old friend, Zeus…”
Inside the gate, a huge, unsettling, contorted face slowly appeared!
It was even larger than this five-meter-high gate!
Forcibly squeezed out!
Like a small building!
The terrifying pressure instantly made Zeus’s heart beat violently, his brain numb! His pupils trembled!

“How is that possible? I didn’t feel this way before. Lord Pot of Greed, have you become stronger?!” Zeus said in astonishment.
The giant, strange ewer grinned ferociously. “In these ten thousand years, I have devoured countless powerhouses. Naturally, I have become stronger. I wonder if there will be satisfying food for me this time…”
Hearing this, Zeus hurriedly replied, “Of course there is! And this time it’s even stronger! A whole group of God-King level food!”
“Oh?!” The Pot of Greed’s eyes lit up with excitement, and he stuck out a huge, foul-smelling tongue and licked his lips.
He then said with some surprise, “In such a primitive world, there’s actually a group of God-King level beings?”
In the eyes of the Abominations, this world was a primeval forest.
Filled with plump flora and fauna.
But to suddenly say there were a few savages who could also use weapons, it was somewhat surprising.
“Indeed, I wasn’t mistaken about you, Zeus. Then quickly take me there!” the Pot of Greed said impatiently.
Zeus excitedly prepared to lead the way, but suddenly paused. “Oh right, Lord Pot of Greed, many creatures in this world have suddenly gone extinct. In terms of offerings, I might not be able to satisfy you for a while…”
Offerings were one of the conditions for completing the ritual.
Controlled by the supreme will.
If the offerings could not be met, then the ritual would not be completed.
The Pot of Greed’s mouth grinned even more unsettlingly. “It doesn’t matter. This is a good thing for me, jie jie jie…”
“If that’s the case, then I don’t need to rush to deal with those guys yet…”
Hearing this, Zeus looked troubled. “But my lord, those guys are extremely cunning. If we don’t kill them immediately, they might become prepared.”
“Tch!” The Pot of Greed sneered. “Are you doubting me? You can’t even complete the offerings. You have no right to order me!”
For him, creating a way to freely travel between the Abomination World and this world was the top priority!
Who would not want to own a private back garden?
This place could be used as a farm to raise plump cattle and sheep.
There were only a few coyotes in the farm, nothing to worry about.
“I need to go back and take care of some things first. See you later, Zeus… Jie jie jie!”
The Pot of Greed then turned and returned into the ‘summoning gate’.
Anyway, the ritual was not over, so he could come and go freely at any time.
His purpose in going back was to discuss with other Evil Gods and find a way to open a passage between the two worlds.
After all, he was not omniscient or omnipotent.
Although Abomination Evil Gods were very powerful and possessed terrifying bug-level abilities, they could only be considered low-tier among the myriad worlds.
Existences in higher planes, some even possessed supreme will, controlling all rules.
Or omniscient beings, capable of knowing everything, hailed as true gods!
Because if you asked him how to become a powerhouse capable of annihilating a plane with a wave of his hand, he could answer and tell you the method!
There were also omnipotent beings, creating all things, even life, with a thought.
Even wiping out thousands of planes with a wave of their hand!
They did not possess bug-level abilities; they themselves were bugs!
The Pot of Greed slowly disappeared into the gate.
Leaving Zeus, his face ferocious, gritting his teeth, in place.
“Damn it! Why! Why not go kill those guys now!” Zeus stomped his feet in frustration. “So stupid!!!”
If he were the Pot of Greed, he would definitely act immediately to avoid further complications.
But now, he could not kill them.
And he himself had completely become a traitor to this world!
Because, just as others, and he himself, had predicted, if the offerings could not be completed, the Pot of Greed could go find a way to open the passage between the two worlds.
This world…
Would soon completely descend into purgatory.
Creatures would have no freedom, no future.
Their purpose in being born would be to become food for others.
The entire world would be filled with despair and fear; true purgatory was probably no different.
…
A dim world.
The sky was incomparably gloomy.
It was as if since the birth of this world, sunlight had never truly shone upon it.
Daytime was as dim as dusk.
And at night, it was even darker and deader; the terrifying darkness could even swallow people!
This was a place filled with evil and chaos.
The Abomination World!
Evil and chaos naturally gave birth to twisted and grotesque creatures, called Abominations.
Of course, normal residents also lived here.
It was not that they were kind, but rather the lowest, weakest Abomination creatures.
Never able to resist or prey on others, they gradually became docile.
They could communicate normally and would not actively attack others.
