above the sky

Since January 777, 1 on Terra, the victor of the Battle of the Sun, Ian Silver Peak, the Falling Sun's Vanguard, returned to the continent of Terra and issued a declaration of perpetual motion, the world began to change.

The most intuitive change is that the world war, which was still in full swing, has now completely stopped.

To be precise, before the War of the Sun, the intensity of the war across the continent was gradually decreasing.

The battle among countries has reached the point of routine, partly because the countries have mobilized a large number of high-level combat forces to go back to study the arcane path, and partly because the war has reached this point, and the phased victory and defeat have been clearly defined.

If the fight continues, unless the investment continues to increase, there will be no more victories.

This laid a good foundation for the truce.

As for the reason for the truce... the reason is very simple.

Because from top to bottom, everyone doesn't want to fight anymore.

The strong don't want to fight because they don't want to die—the appearance of perpetual motion machines makes the outcome of war extremely ridiculous. Killing the opponent's soldiers is nothing more than providing the opponent with a firm source of dead votes. Die while attacking, and maybe hate yourself in return.

So far, no one wants to take the initiative to attack other countries, and no matter whether they win or lose, the gain is not worth the loss.

And for ordinary people...hey, who wants to fight!
No matter who gets the perpetual motion machine in the future, there is a high probability that everyone will have a good life, so why abandon the good life in the future for the sake of war?Now that he is dead, he is really at home at a loss. Not only will he not be able to see the beautiful golden age of human beings in the future, he may also miss the era of "sublimation of all people" in the theory of the arcane path!

If everything is really as Ian Yinfeng said, then after the perpetual motion machine really starts to activate, what Terran humans will usher in is a world with unlimited energy, territorial expansion, no food worries, and everyone has enough to eat. Dress warmly and have a house to live in, an era where everyone can pursue their dreams!

Although the big guy still doesn't know who is the final winner, there is no doubt that whoever does not set the above-mentioned futures in his goals, then even if the opponent is the strongest sublimator in his country, the big guy may not Vote for him.

Because of Ian Yinfeng's words, the rulers of all countries in the world are involved.

Of course, there are also some rulers who are not interested in perpetual motion machines, or think that they cannot win.

However, they dare not continue to oppress and squeeze the people in their own country like that.

why?
Because, the powerful people in this world who have the capital to compete for the ownership of the perpetual motion machine, the rulers of the largest countries, have long been hungry and locked their scarlet eyes on the leaders of all other forces.

As long as these strong men who have the possibility of victory find that they are oppressing the people in their own country...

Then without even thinking about it, the powerful men from these powerful countries will swoop in with lightning speed, join forces to kill him, and then divide his country and his 'votes'.

Everyone must be the best and perfect, otherwise, they will be taken by others - and the oppressed people will never miss a strong man who oppressed them, but will happily vote for those who oppressed them. Liberate their people!

This is the new era of 'vote intimidation'!
The bottom refuses war, and those who are not strong enough dare not continue the war. However, the strongest group of strong people have long given up the war, and are scanning the whole field to see which country dares to continue to pressure the people to join the army and continue the war.

In this way, the war ended quickly.

But a new concept of 'competition' appears in the world.

The powerhouses are thinking about how to build a society that can be most approved by all the people, fit the local people's livelihood, and not aim too high, but a society that can be truly created.

In a sense, this is also a kind of war, but it is a kind of war whose logic has been changed.

In this regard, many ordinary people are also wondering.

In the original war, people sacrificed their lives to conquer other forces because of the will of some powerful people.

This is the same as the boss of a congressman who, for the benefit of his own factory and farm, waved his hand and asked a group of farmers' sons to kill another group of farmers' sons thousands of miles away.

Whether it is the winner or the loser, hundreds of thousands or even tens of millions of people have been burned as fuel for the war, and the final result may not be satisfactory.

However, unlike on Earth, if the strong men on Terra want to start a war, they must also be a member of the war. Regardless of success or failure, the strong (powerful) have the possibility of death. In a sense, this is almost It is equivalent to the logic of nuclear war on Earth, that is, if a war breaks out, the strongest ones at the top are most likely to die first.

But on the other hand, each of Terra's current wars is equivalent to a nuclear war, so the possibility of world destruction is also extremely high.

cruel.

But also simple and easy to understand.

But now?

No one has to face the danger of the destruction of the world all the time, and because of this, many people are puzzled by it.

——Even if in the end, a strong man with a perpetual motion machine is really decided... This can't change the logic of the world, it's nothing more than creating an invincible emperor for everyone!
——If the emperor does not intend to fulfill his promise, can the perpetual motion machine counter it?

The original war brought clear destruction, but the current competition is too complicated, and the people cannot understand the consequences of this complicated competition, so they will be even more confused.

However, many people don't care about this: Is it possible that there is no invincible emperor/speaker/prime minister above everyone now?Rather than worrying about this problem, it is better to simply believe in perpetual motion machines.

A goal that is not lofty enough may not be able to start the perpetual motion machine at all.

This is Terra today, a world that is changing with each passing day.

And in the center of the Sun War and the Perpetual Motion Declaration, the Setar Empire, the situation is changing with each passing day.

The situation in today's empire is very strange.

The Earl of Nanling, Ian Silver Peak, and the second prince Mikhail joined hands to fight against the emperor Axel, the land keeper of the empire, and Earl Silver Peak returned to Terra as the final victor.

The Earl of Silver Peak did not betray the empire—at least, not with the moral values ​​of the powerhouse of the fifth energy level—he returned the blood of the emperor and the second prince, the original eldest prince Carlos and the eldest princess Allegri Yadu got a copy of the top blood.

And then...the empire is divided.

In fact, not only the empire, but all the countries of Terra are now a little bit divided.

After all, the perpetual motion machine does not choose 'a force' but 'an individual' as the final winner.

In this case, even if the comrades who originally fought side by side have different wishes, they still have to compete for the perpetual motion machine.

Even, the powerhouses of the fifth energy level who are originally in the same country will weaken the ticket source with each other, and cannot defeat those forces that originally only have one supreme voice.

For example, Yanjiang has a small population. If Ju Yue and Yuan Xing have different wishes, then his biggest opponent is not the rulers of other countries, but his own 'colleagues'.

The original empire belonged to the latter.

Neither Governor Baiji nor the commander of the First Army could compete with the glory of the Sun Emperor.

But now, the radiance of the sun is split.

Neither Carlos nor Alegria are characters who are willing to be subordinate to others.

If their younger brother Mikhail, who first entered the fifth energy level, is still alive (in fact, he is alive), then they may still accept him as the new emperor, but if it is the other party... then the division of the empire is the best solution.

Today, although the empire is still one in law, it has in fact turned into a division of the eastern and western empires.

The head of the First Army followed the eldest prince Carlos, while Governor Baiji chose to support the eldest princess Alegria.

And the new generation of Unmovable Fortified City, the successor of the Black Sun, Earl Ian Silver Peak... also became the Duke of Silver Peak and the Grand Duke of Nanling of the Empire by virtue of the contribution of "escorting the return of the blood of the top".

Empire three points.

The ticket source is also three points.

By now, the empire no longer has an overwhelming advantage over other forces, so in turn, the forces within other countries have also begun to split.

Although it's not the same world line...but it's the same.

For the perpetual motion machine, the era of great division has arrived.

And for Ian, it was all good.

Apart from other things, now that Ian has become the justifiable Grand Duke of Nanling, it is tantamount to allowing him to establish an independent country.

Although Ian had virtually controlled the entire South Ridge before, the owner of South Ridge was still the Marquis of Barton, and after Ian became the Duke, he was the real owner of this land.

People will be proud to be from Nanling and feel happy to be his people under the command of Ian Silverfeng.

As for the Marquis of Barton...he retired happily.

Although the Marquis had some regrets about Axel's ending, but after the old man knew that his lord was actually planning such an incredible rampage, and it really succeeded, he didn't even regret it.

"I don't think anyone can regret it for him - His Majesty has accomplished everything he wanted to accomplish."

"As a minister, I just need to be happy."

Having said that, the Marquis of Barton handed over the rights of the [-]th Legion to Ian very comfortably, and his son also swore allegiance to Ian.

"Old slick."

This is Ian's evaluation. He is quite helpless with the Marquis of Barton's application for retirement. He also expects the other party to work hard for a while before the situation stabilizes.

But he also knew that the Marquis of Barton didn't have much life span. If he didn't retreat now and recuperate his body with the arcane way, he might die in a few years.

Human life is paramount, so he can only retreat.

In addition, there are many strange things that happened in the empire.

First of all, the western part of the empire, the Misty Forest, where the Grand Duchy of Thorin was originally located, began to emit a fiery atmosphere from the center of the earth.

The meaning of this scene is obvious: Justice Thorin is gradually bringing his own country's subjugation to the surface and returning to the world.

As the fifth energy level of the former imperial faction, his appearance attracted everyone's attention.

After Axel's death, Archduke Thorin returns again...

What is his purpose?
Is it to take pleasure in someone else's misfortune?
Or do you plan to get a share of the chaotic situation in the empire?

Or...

Before others could continue to speculate, Grand Duke Thorin's own words dispelled everyone's doubts.

[I have no idea about perpetual motion machines, and I don’t think I can succeed]

[The situation in the world has changed now, there will no longer be destructive wars in this world, and my people can choose to be reborn—but this requires too much energy and resources, which I cannot bear in a short time, or directly , I can't do it]

[So, if someone is willing to make a contract with me to revive my people, my power can be used by him]

Grand Duke Thorin turned all the people in his principality into souls, avoiding the tragic battle between the empire and Flameland, and also avoiding the invasion of the demon army.

From the perspective of future generations, Grand Duke Thorin indeed preserved the souls of his subjects, and did not let anyone's soul be devoured and shattered by demons, leaving the possibility of rebirth for his subjects.

However, the cruel methods used in the study of the dead king, and the fact that a large number of people were indeed 'dead', also made Archduke Thorin the world's most deserving 'worst tyrant' - anyone who talks about him is mixed with disgust. with fear.

Grand Duke Sorin's declaration is very sincere, and no one will doubt whether he still has ambitions for perpetual motion machines.Everyone knows that Grand Duke Thorin will not compete with them for perpetual motion machines. In this case, such a fifth-level ally is very attractive.

But the problem is that the vast majority of Terrans have a natural dislike for 'Grand Duke Thorin'.

Forming an alliance with him is likely to cause his own people to no longer support him.

This is a natural fear of madmen, an attitude that cannot be changed with words and promises.

——For your own good, I can kill you and turn you into a dead soul... This kind of will is simply a dark demon king.

Of course, according to Grand Duke Sorin's words, as long as his people are revived, then his people can get rid of the status of "non-free souls" and have the right to vote.

The person who revives them will undoubtedly get this vote.

This huge income is enough to offset the fear of his own people towards Archduke Thorin.

But here is the problem.

——If you want to get Grand Duke Thorin's votes and fight for the perpetual motion machine, you need to resurrect Grand Duke Thorin's people.

——And to revive the people of Grand Duke Sorin, it is difficult for all the powerful people in this world to do it in a short time. Only with a perpetual motion machine can it be done.

Circular paradoxes belong to be.

"Currently, on Terra, only I have the possibility to get this 'ticket source' from Grand Duke Thorin."

During the Nanling meeting, Ian expressed his views very directly: "The arcane path is the only way that can allow these souls who are about to lose their self to find themselves bit by bit, and I believe that with my With my appeal, the people of Nanling will not fear me for Grand Duke Thorin."

"But let me say that restoring the dead souls in the hands of Grand Duke Sorin is only the first step. The second step is to let these dead souls regain their bodies."

Compared to the fifth energy level on the continent of Terra who are still issuing new policies to appease the people and solicit votes, Ian's current attitude is to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai.

As long as he does a good job in his Nanling basics, the people of Nanling who have respected and loved him from the very beginning will never be dragged away by others.

Conversely, he can also plan the people of other people and siphon the population of other countries just like he is planning the ticket source in the hands of Grand Duke Sorin.

"There are many ways to let the dead soul have a body, but biological cloning, because we don't have the gene pool of Grand Duke Sorin, it is difficult to achieve. After all, human beings are not real dragons, and biological prosthetic bodies can be switched at will, so we We need to think in terms of 'mechanical prosthesis'."

At the meeting, Ian looked at Roland, the head of his Mechanical Alchemy Department: "I have sent the technology of the mechanical prosthesis before, and now, the main task of our Yinfeng Mechanical Alchemy Department is to turn these theoretical technologies into reality. "

"It doesn't matter if you encounter problems in the middle. Summarize everything and submit it to Adalbert, and he will solve it."

"Yes!" Roland replied seriously, and then began to write on the crystal tablet, writing down all Ian's speech without missing a word.

The technology of the mechanical prosthesis is actually the mechanical technology of the pre-epoch civilization and the technology related to the "eternal elf" of Canaan Moore.Ian got it a long time ago, but it still takes a little time for his technical department to understand all these advanced technologies.

Ian believes that during this process, Yinfeng Ling's technicians will encounter many problems. Only by constantly asking and solving problems can they make progress and keep up with their own pace.

As for whether Adalbert can really solve all the problems raised by the technical department...

Haha, it wasn't Yardbert who was answering at all!
Although Adelbert is a genius not inferior to his own, Ian also knows that the other party's main talent is in the aspect of soul power. Although he is still proficient in machinery, it is only at the level of an ordinary genius, and it is absolutely impossible to solve technical all problems encountered.

However, Yadbert is the 'test paper writer' of 'Pioneering Space'!

If he really encountered a problem that he couldn't solve, he didn't need to burn his brain cells to solve it. Instead, he could write it directly into the test paper of the Pioneer Space and distribute it to all the users of the Pioneer Space!

In the pioneer space, there are quite a few people who are proficient in mechanical technology, and it is not uncommon for them to surpass Yadbert.

Even if you can't win, one side is a busy person, and the other side is a student taking an exam, it's obvious who can put more effort into solving it.

Gathering the wisdom of all the talents in all Terra to solve problems for one's own territorial technology, this is the strength of Ian's pioneering space prostitution power!

Similarly, this is the reason why Ian devoted all his efforts to perfecting the pioneer platform immediately after returning to Yinfeng, and combined it with the heart of Terra to turn it into a 'pioneer space'!
The creator of Pioneer Space, is Ian.

The initial founding members were close friends Isengard, Adlbert, Anfa and Xio.

After Ian returned to Terra, these people came to greet him immediately. Anfa even specially asked his uncle Yafoda to open the time and space gate from Canaan Moore.

Ian is naturally very happy, he is not a machine without blood and tears - perhaps in other timelines, he may become that kind of existence, but at least this time, he has friends and elders from beginning to end, naturally Not that kind of monster.

During the War of the Sun, Isengard stayed in the imperial capital all the time, communicating with the 'immortality' in Inaiga II's body.

Just like the chat between Ian and Inaiga II, Isengard didn't feel too much pressure...just as a 'replica' of Inaika II in a certain sense, he was to his great-grandfather, his original body very curious.

The communication between the two of them is a story other than the story... But in general, Isengard has completely untied his knot.

He has completely reconciled with his past and origin—he is a unique individual, a child of his own mother, not a descendant that his father did not expect to be born, nor is he an experimental subject of his grandfather's grand plan, and naturally he is not Inaiga II. replica of the world.

His heart, light body, is also fully formed at this moment.

Its name is 'Light of Sunset', a kind of light that combines the beast of a thousand stars and the sun bird. It is close to dusk, not bright, not clear, and even gives people a hazy and dim feeling.

Its effect is not so magical and powerful, it can only 'calm' people down.

It's like sitting in a circle with family and friends around a crackling campfire under a dusk-colored canopy.

With smiles and peace of mind, everyone drank drinks and drinks together, ate barbecue delicacies, and watched the sun slowly set on the horizon... Then, the world sank into the night.

So, you can sleep peacefully.

It's such a 'peace'.

I'm going for a physical check-up today. I hope there won't be any major problems, but if there are any problems, they need to be treated properly.
