"Are gods really that bad?" Strange asked with some disbelief.
Although Mordo didn't say anything, he had the same expression. After all, this thing doesn't feel real. It's like the whole world says a certain country is rubbish, but you just read the reports and don't really feel anything. You just repeat what others say. Unless you actually go to that country, you can really feel it.
Strange and Mordo are both modern people, and their knowledge of ancient times, or gods, comes from mythology. Kamar-Taj also has many documents, including records about ancient times. Although there are not many, we can still get a glimpse of them.
So overall, there are still some special filters for that era and the gods.
There is a sense of instinctive closeness.
This is true even after what happened with Ares.
"Ha... how should I put it? I wasn't here some time ago. Actually, I just went to the Pantheon. Don't ask me why I went there. I have my reasons. Anyway, I went there... it's really terrible there. Maybe you think that the United States is the place with the biggest gap between the rich and the poor in the world, but if you really understand how the people living in the Pantheon live, you might think that the United States is a paradise... that place is just a big Indian! The incomparable caste system, the gods and the bloodlines of the gods are the nobles and the ruling class, and the others are not even considered human! They are just consumables, livestock ready to be sacrificed at any time! What's worse is that this group of gods seems to have some relationship with the demons from another dimension. They don't even let go of the souls of their believers. Countless souls of believers have been traded to the demons in exchange for their eternal life!"
Although Kai's words failed to fully describe the darkness of the Pantheon, these few things were enough for them to imagine what the scene was like.
"And the devil?" Mordo asked in disbelief.
Demons are the extra-dimensional creatures that most frequently invade the Earth. They are not even one of them. After all, the connection between the demon dimension and the Earth has existed since ancient times.
It is said that a long, long time ago, the Earth was still desolate, and even the creatures were in the most primitive state. The Celestials [Original] infected by the cosmic insect swarm and the Hive came to the prehistoric Earth in the pain of disease, and eventually died of the disease here. The contaminated blood of the Original flowed into the lava and sea of the Earth, and was injected with the genes of the life that was destined to be born in the future. This gene is a live virus vaccine cultivated by the Original to fight against the Hive and prevent them from continuing to infect other Celestials. The Original bets on the future lives of the entire Earth, hoping that this planet can breed creatures that can destroy the Hive.
One million years ago, at the dawn of human civilization, the live virus vaccine cultivated by the original ancestors began to show results. In the era of primitive cave dwellers, humans with a far higher degree of evolution than their own appeared. They not only had the appearance and intelligence close to modern humans, but also had abilities far beyond ordinary people. Whether it was because of Mephisto's bewitching, the dragon Shou Lao's heart, or the mysterious herbs of the ancient country, they became the first superpowers on this planet.
These are considered to be the earliest gods.
The most powerful among them are Gaia, Sisos, Set, and Harps!
They are considered to be the four ancient gods.
Since their time, demons have had a connection with the Earth.
Among them, the most typical one is Mephisto, the Lord of Hell, who himself originates from the energy after the death of the Ancient Gods!
Demons are divided into three categories. The first category of demons are fallen ancient gods and their followers. Hutton and Set are the representatives of the first category of demons. At first, Hutton, Set, Oshutu and Gaia were all ancient gods and the earliest life on earth. Later, Set devoured the ancient god Simps and found that devouring other ancient gods could increase his own power. The ancient gods imitated Set and fell into ancient demons. At this time, the ancient god Oshutu had left the earth and traveled the universe. The compassionate Gaia had sex with the Creator and gave birth to Atum. Atum killed most of the fallen ancient gods, and the remaining fallen ancient gods left the earth and hid in other dimensions. The surviving fallen ancient gods and their descendants are the first category of demons.
The second type of demons. Initially, there was only one life in the universe, the goddess of vengeance, Nemesis. Due to loneliness, Nemesis created a group of lives, but these lives were evil, that is, the first group of demons. Nemesis destroyed all the demons, and then committed suicide because of loneliness. But after her death, the demons she killed were resurrected.
There is also a legend that says that when Atum killed the fallen ancient gods, a lot of dark energy was left behind. These energies formed the first batch of demons, that is, the second type of demons.
Mephisto, Torg, and Satanish are all representatives of the second type of demons. In addition, fallen angels such as Lucifer and Asmodeus are also considered second-type demons. The third type of demon is the extradimensional demon, that is, the original life in other dimensions. Shuma Glatt and Dormammu are both third-type demons.
He took the form of a snake to lure Adam and Eve to eat the fruit of wisdom from the tree of wisdom. Since then, Mephisto has become obsessed with seducing and manipulating the living to sell their souls to him. A million years ago, Mephisto took the form of a snake to lure a boy whose family was slaughtered by the Wendigo to tell his name, turning the boy into the first Ghost Rider on Earth. Mephisto also tried to corrupt Kunlun Feifan, who had the power of the Iron Fist, but Feifan refused to use his power to conquer the world. Mephisto's manipulation of humans runs through the entire history of mankind. Mephisto lives in the Hell dimension, but this is not the real Hell. Mephisto and some other powerful demons form a group called the Lords of Hell, who all control their own "Hell" dimensions and like to use the title of "Satan" to manipulate mortals, but none of them are real Satans.
The Lords of Hell are mainly composed of the second type of demons, but not exclusively. Dormammu is a third type of demon, and he has also joined the Lords of Hell. The Lords of Hell are not harmonious and often conflict with each other.
Dormammu is special. He and his sister Umar were born in a dimension called Falting. The Falting people are energy creatures born from pure magic. The Falting people all consume energy to survive, but Dormammu and Umar are eager to consume matter instead of energy, which is considered filthy by the Falting people. Their "parents" Sinnefer stepped forward to stop Dormammu and Umar, but Dormammu and Umar turned Sinnefer into matter and killed him. Dormammu and Umar's actions angered the Falting people, and the Falting people expelled them from the Falting dimension. Dormammu and Umar came to the dark dimension, and in the process Dormammu and Umar incarnated into physical form. The dark dimension is ruled by Orna, who is eager for war and conquest. Dormammu and Umar became friends with Orna and helped Orna conquer several dimensions. In the end, the dark dimension army hit a wall when invading the unconscious realm, and the soulless and savage unconscious killed Orna and many of his men. Dormammu and Ulmar took the opportunity to kill and exile other dark dimension wizards and ruled the dark dimension. After becoming the ruler of the dark dimension, Dormammu restored his energy form, while Ulmar retained his physical form. Dormammu has fought with many extra-dimensional rulers. He clashed with Odin of Asgard many times and finally signed a contract. Odin believed that Dormammu was on par with his own strength, but Dormammu believed that Odin looked at him with fear and was far inferior to him. Dormammu has been observing the earth for thousands of years. He often clashed with Agamotto, the son of Oshutu and the first Supreme Sorcerer. He left behind a tradition of the Supreme Sorcerer fighting Dormammu. Dormammu has invaded the earth many times in history, but was stopped by successive Supreme Sorcerers.
Dormammu is considered more powerful than demon lords such as Lucifer, Marduk, Mephisto, and Satanish.
In addition to being the Lord of Hell, Dormammu is also a Chaos Lord, also known as the Dark Lord, who orchestrates the spread of darkness and evil.
However, this type is particularly Cthulhu, in short, the main focus is on chaotic evil. Many chaos lords are related to the Old Ones. Shuma Glat is one of them. He is one of the Old Ones, also known as the Polyhedron. Shuma Glat is the ruler of hundreds of dimensions. He and other Old Ones once ruled the earth. Shuma Glat tried to rule the earth again, but was defeated by the ancient gods in the Stone Age. 21,000 years ago before Atlantis fell silent, Shuma Glat returned to the earth and tried to re-establish himself as a god. The god Krom gave humans three iron books and sealed Shuma Glat in a mountain, which was named Mount Krom. In the Hyperion era, Kulan Gas opened the seal and released Shuma Glat. Conan used the iron book to expel Shuma Glat back to his native dimension. Shuma Glat coveted the earth and manipulated the earthlings to establish a cult. Shuma Glatt is extremely powerful, a third type of demon and one of the primordial forces of Chaos. The Great Old Ones dwell between universes, originating from the Outer Darkness, beyond reality itself.
In short, no matter what kind of demon it is, it is the target of Kamar-Taj's fight.
However, demons in the traditional sense will always be Kamar-Taj’s main enemy, that is, the second type of demons.
Like Mephisto.
So they instinctively feel resistance to demons.
I heard that after the gods left the earth, they actually got together with the devil.
Both Strange and Mordo expressed extreme disgust.
Especially Mordo, this guy is a typical Kamar-Tajist, and he particularly hates unnatural existence.
"How could they fall to such a level?! You know, according to the documents of Kamar-Taj, 10,000 years ago, the gods were the main force in fighting against the demons!"
This was the reason why Mordo had a good impression of the gods before. But now, Kai told him that he had thought too much, and the gods had actually fallen to the point of making deals with demons.
"What else? You know, the gods of Asgard have gone through three generations, but Zeus, who was their contemporary, is still alive and well. Why do you think that is? Do you really think they are stronger than the Asgardians?"
The meaning of gods 10,000 years ago was completely different from what it is now. Modern people understand gods as omniscient, omnipotent, and immortal. But in the era 10,000 years ago, gods were more of a functional synonym, such as Asgard's use of gods now.
They are just a title, not what modern people think they are.
"They should have died long ago, but now they are alive and well. Why do you think that is? They are selling out the souls of their believers! Those demons don't have to do anything. They just need to stay in their lairs, and there will be an endless supply of souls delivered to them!"
Just highlight one outrageous thing.
Now Mordo and Strange's faces looked even worse.
"No wonder you always find it hard to describe them." Strange finally understood why Kai made that expression.
Mordo was more curious about why Kai would bring such a thing to Earth: "Then why did you bring Aphrodite back to Earth? You hate them so much."
"Um... well... although I look down on them, no matter what, they are still some of my friends among them." Kai is naturally hypocritical... There's nothing he can do about it, is there really anyone in this world who is not hypocritical?
"Aphrodite isn't that bad. She's just a little willful at best. We were able to go to the Pantheon this time thanks to her help. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to come back so easily."
As for the fact that Kai was caught in Aphrodite's golden net, Kai didn't intend to talk about it.
"Well..." What could Mordo say? Kai was not his responsibility.
"By the way, I forgot to ask before, what's going on in Atlantis?" Kai quickly changed the subject.
Kai had been helping Atlantis hunt down Black Manta who stole the Dark Trident. But when Thor came looking for him, Kai had no choice but to leave the matter to Atlanna and Mera to handle. Kai even left the Trident of Poseidon to them, thinking there should be no problem.
Kai asked the right person this question.
If you ask other people, Kai really won’t be able to answer, but Kamar-Taj definitely knows.
They monitor the entire world, including Atlantis. Although Kamar-Taj recruits only land humans, according to Kamar-Taj's rules, they will not exclude Atlanteans from humans. And the Dark Trident is indeed a bit evil, so although Kamar-Taj will not get too involved in the disputes between them, if the situation reaches a certain point, they will still take action to resolve it.
So attention is a must.
"The matter has been resolved. The half-blood prince was summoned back by the Queen of Atlantis. He personally killed Black Manta, and the Dark Trident was also destroyed."
Kai breathed a sigh of relief, as if the matter was resolved.
