from Xingyuan

Chapter 1059 275. Imperial Route: Leading to the Ending of [Spiritual Deer] (69)

A week after the environmental war began, the situation on the front lines became known to the public.

Without any suspense, the Federation's forces and the Secret Council immediately fell into a quagmire after several skirmishes.

To be honest, Yinmi suffered a great loss. The continental environment of Jingyuan destined Yinmi to fight only on land, sea and air. This place was not suitable for their senators to display their cosmic posture.

And some of the joint forces are land forces.

The first place to be attacked was the "Homeland of Souls". The long march gave the members of the Secret Council a headache for the first time.

The undead army faced no pressure at all in the face of poisonous blood corruption. Large numbers of Death Lords led the walking dead to constantly fight against the Tatar-Slavic hybrid humans in the fields, towns and wastelands. Even though they were once the overlords of the grasslands, they were defeated and abandoned in the desperate advance of the dead.

However, although there are many undead, they are not able to show off their high-level combat power.

In this regard, we can only rely on the "Red Blood Alliance", which has a racist narrative nurtured by careful selection and cruel Darwinism. In terms of building peak individual combat power, it is undoubtedly the most powerful existence in the alliance.

The alliance sent out three demigods:
[Lord Incompetent], Zoracin, although the title of Lord sounds strange, he is not really incompetent. He is a rare demigod of the [Plundering] system, but he does not believe in Red King, but follows an independent and ancient belief. After completing the fusion path, he only needs to unfold his demigod posture to release the power called "Boundless Sea of ​​Bitterness", which imposes random plundering and bestowing effects on all hostile targets.

It sounds a bit abstract, but if you think about it carefully you will find out how terrifying this ability is.

People who are trapped in the 'Boundless Sea of ​​Bitterness' may have their 'size' stolen at any time, and then be randomly assigned an 'element'. This can be any size or element, and the power of [Incompetent Lord] lies in that He can decide the specific location of the assignment and plunder.

For example, He can first take away the osmotic pressure between someone's cells, and then give the other person a heavy element in his gene chain, giving the other person a physical genetic editing at any time.

But most of the time, Zoracin didn't need to do anything. He just had to keep smiling and watch the other party mutate and die twisted in the "boundless sea of ​​suffering".

The enemies he faced were the secretive [Astrologer] and [Gourmet]. These two senators were better at physical combat and did not gain any advantage from [Lord Incompetent], but they did not suffer any fatal blow either.

In comparison, the other two sent by the alliance did not look so good.

[Xian Hua Qing] Doronmuir is a typical scholar-type demigod. As a strong man in the [Fine Arts] path, he quickly discovered the secret of the Secret Council's deployment of civilization, and tried to raid the headquarters of Tianming Castle to steal secret information.

The plan itself was well done and the infiltration was smooth. Dorenmuir, who mastered the ability of stringization, easily passed the monitoring system temporarily set up by the Secret Council.

Then Doronmuir was surprised to find that the internal database of the Secret Council was extremely laxly guarded, with only a few secret citizens left to guard it. When he sneaked in, the four guards were still playing mahjong.

"It seems that the secret is just so-so. Beating Oshulia gave them confidence."

But Doronmuir soon realized why the secretive authorities had not kept a close eye on the information.

When he began to record and read the secret internal information, a huge amount of information exploded in his mind like a nuclear bomb. Endless Latin letters gushed out like magma and then merged into the cold ocean.

Under the fierce information bombardment, Doronmuir's personality was destroyed, but then it was reshaped under the protection of Jingyuan, and then destroyed again.

After going back and forth dozens of times, his spirit finally collapsed. But even so, the hidden knowledge did not let him go. They spontaneously broke through the brain cells, and the information flow entered the demigod's internal circulation system with blood as the carrier, and then began to manifest and transform this body.

When Doronmuir realized the danger, it was already over. His body system had been transformed into earth-like, and even the native language in his mind had been transformed into English.

Not only that, in the continuous earth transformation, Doronmuir vaguely saw a terrible, majestic, mysterious dark king. His authority was like the deepest black hole. His terrifying deterrence despised all the villains in the world. The glory and history of the six-layer star abyss were ravaged and shattered in front of his imperial power.

"Submit, or perish."

The supreme [Emperor] just said it casually, but he gave the order.

Doronmuir's fear finally reached its peak, and he was thrown into the ocean of the Milky Way and years in an instant.

exile.

He was imprisoned there for a full 10 years, but in reality, only two minutes had passed.

However, this is not terrible.

Yes, the power of time and space is indeed terrifying, but everyone has become a demigod, so who doesn’t have some ability to fight against time and space?
What really made Doronmuir despair was that the Emperor had no intention of hiding anything. He told him a shocking fact directly:

The power that exiled him came from the abysses below, even from beneath the underworld!
That power spanned the Star Abyss, a full three layers of the Star Abyss.

This is just a word from the Emperor.

Doronmuir was in complete despair. He could not believe that the Federation could remain safe and sound under the reign of the Emperor, nor could he guarantee that he could regain his human form.

So, he chose to commit suicide without hesitation - he simply opened the string and released everything in his body.

This did not cause an explosion, it just disappeared without a trace.

Until the very end, Hidden had no idea they had easily defeated a demigod.

Only the Federation knows what Doronmuir's sacrifice means.

The alliance chose to keep the death of [Xian Huaqing] a secret. The failure of a secret operation could be concealed, but the defeat in a frontal battle could not be hidden by anyone.

Battle reports can be exaggerated, but the battle lines will never lie.

The third demigod [Lord of Fantasy], Bai Chuliu, is a legendary [Architect] and hero of Jingyuan. He has made many military achievements and is an expert in void combat. He has built countless important projects in peacetime.

In the words of Earthlings, He is a super engineer who was able to build the Qinghai-Tibet Railway in the Ming Dynasty using only hammers and slaves, a great sage and teacher of civil engineering, and a congenital infrastructure saint. If He could be deified, He would be an infrastructure saint who would rule the world for all eternity.

Bai Chuliu saw the Secret Council's ability to deploy civilization, so he was eager to try it out. He decided to use the ready-made civilization of the allies to fight against the secret Tatar-Slavic civilization, and try not to launch surprise attacks or offensive wars.

Because I can't beat it.

These Slavic and Tatar barbarians were extremely fierce on the grasslands of Oshulia, not to mention that they had extremely advanced technology.

Technology was not a problem. With the help of the other two narrative civilizations, the alliance quickly created a technological blockade.

Oshulia spread the white flow structure network in the air, and fully laid out the interference bacteria created by the consortium.

These tiny fungi soon taught the Secret Council a lesson. No matter how hard Engineer Zhang Fulun tried to repair and improve the dust-free environment, he was unable to stop these unique fungal spores from spreading and multiplying.

They feed on electric currents and neutrinos, and will devour any hidden electronic equipment as soon as it is turned on.

At this point, particle accelerators, cold fusion power stations, gravitational warp channels, high-altitude satellites, personal mobile devices, transistor computers - the entire technology tree since the nuclear energy era has collapsed.

This action successfully forced the advanced civilization equipped with neutron bombs and laser guns to take off their robes, put on power armor, pick up chainswords, and fight the allied army under the cover of artillery fire.

The alliance's plan was similar to what Bai Chuliu had in mind, which was to let Master Bai Chuliu use his infrastructure capabilities to support the war and raise a large number of troops all the way to Oshulia. The fortresses were connected by a high-speed neural network.
There is no need for any sophisticated tactics, just building a strong stronghold and fighting a stupid battle, relying on the vast territory and resources of Jingyuan and the mobilization ability of the coalition to wear out the enemy.

But when the battle with the army really started, Lord Fantasy was shocked.

The Earthlings' desire to fight is almost endless. Even if their individual strength is a little weak, with strict discipline and tactical coordination, four or five people can often surround and kill an elite warrior of the alliance.

Without electronic technology, these earthlings simply developed steam technology to the extreme, and large numbers of steam tanks, steam armored knights, steam land cruisers and steam airplanes were continuously deployed in the war.

Fortunately, the alliance's army is quite solid, and the warriors of various ethnic tribes are not inferior to the Earthlings.

But in this case, Bai Chuliu's positioning becomes very awkward.

With the technology of both sides being suppressed to the state before the nuclear energy era, he could only ensure his own geographical and weather advantages, and the technological gap was not substantially widened.

Bai Chuliu tried several times to challenge Zhang Fulun to a duel.

However, the [Engineer] Zhang Fulong never thought of attacking. Instead, he called the [Soldier] Millitre to take charge of the front line and coldly commanded the Earth army to continue the attack.

Soon, Bai Chuliu realized why [Soldier] was known as the most powerful profession in the secret system.

Tactically, Millitary is an extremely cold-blooded and calm opponent who will not be affected by any subjective emotions or the adverse conditions on the front line. She looks at every soldier unit equally, regardless of whether they are from the main line or the side line, and regards them all as chess pieces, and her commands are quite steady.

Strategically, Millitary is a superhuman with a 'God's perspective' that allows her to see the entire map.

Any deception or attempt to entice the enemy would be ineffective. This woman had fought so many battles, from Jerusalem to Jintian in Guangxi, that they were too numerous to count.

Not only that, she can project her thoughts onto any soldier on the front line at any time, from a tank in a plain battle to a machine gun position, allowing her to manipulate them at will.

What's even more abominable is that if someone wants to challenge Millitre to a duel, no one dares to challenge her.

Militrui opened her five fingers, and each of them turned into five different divine weapons. Without exception, they were all legendary swords from Jingyuan, and they had been lost for a long time. She opened her mouth and could spit out the radiation of stars and the flames of the sun.

The more you use mysterious and powerful weapons, the more you strengthen Millitre.

In this way, Bai Chuliu attacked the front line aggressively, and then was divided into two groups by Militre, who attacked the city and captured the stronghold. After 10 days of attack, the front line was almost pushed out of Oshulia.

If the alliance hadn't sent out the Hades Guards to fight street battles and risk their lives, Bai Chuliu himself would have been secretly captured alive.

When these news reports reached the public, they immediately caused a great shock.

"What the hell! Is Hidden such a powerful enemy?"

"Oh my god, the union of the four narrative civilizations has caused the war to be like this. Do we, the independent civilizations and countries, still have a way to survive?"

"Is it too late to learn English now? I don't want to surrender, I just want to expand my knowledge..."

"Aren't the Undead fighting well? You are such a wimp! How can you boost the enemy's morale and destroy your own prestige?"

"But the news said that we suffered heavy losses... Oh, so the secret losses were also so serious."

"Tsk, I studied journalism."

These scenes of discussion and controversy were constantly played out in Strachey hotels across the continent.

Some people feel extremely pessimistic. The Earth's civilization is like a god descending from heaven. The most powerful empire was destroyed in an instant. As long as the Narrative Consortium does not kill Secret in an instant, the battle will have been lost.

Optimists believe that our brothers in the Abyss have been locked in a total war with society for decades, and that we have only joined this war a little late. Sooner or later, everyone will unite, justice will prevail, and the invaders will inevitably be driven away.

Nihilistic missionaries took the opportunity to spread a wave of nihilistic thoughts, claiming that all wars are meaningless, that there are no nations or countries in the world, and that everything is a lie of the carnivores. Regardless of whether the war is won or lost, the narrative and [society] will still exist, and the only ones who will die are the fooled babies who fill in the blanks.

Then, they changed the subject and said that only the void can change all this. The void is the only concept of absolute equality and average. The void is not like other civilizations. The void has no meaning, and believing in the void has no meaning. But if you choose the void, it is your destined fate. You can not believe in the void, but only by abandoning everything and completely embracing nothingness can you escape from the sea of ​​suffering.

Since it does not raise money and does not form gatherings or missionary activities on the surface, the Void thought quickly gained a large number of mortal supporters when the war came.

Mortals are ignorant, simple and pitiful. To make them hate each other, all you need is a sentence like "he is richer than you". The Void is very good at taking advantage of this gap. They constantly take advantage of internal conflicts and arouse their hatred towards all elites and wealthy groups. They can easily win the hearts of the people. After that, they only need a few rituals and transformations to spontaneously convert them into believers of the Void.

But some people hate war, and naturally some people love war.

When the war came, the Daliang Dynasty far in the east was overjoyed. As a huge empire, they received a steady stream of raw material orders from the federation and bought a large number of war bonds. In order to repay their allies and facilitate transportation, the narrative civilization sent people to build factories and infrastructure projects for them.

Such things are not uncommon for many small countries. A war has driven a technological revolution that they have not completed in hundreds of years.

However, even top powers like King Baiye dare not rashly take sides regarding the future direction of this "environmental protection war".

If it were in the past, Xu Shen and others would not understand. It was clearly a war to protect Xingyuan, so why couldn't everyone work together?

But now, members of the Zhenwu Party, whose worldviews have changed, all express their understanding of this.

After all, many people simply don’t realize how terrible the harm caused by secrecy is.

They thought it was just a small fight like with the Void, but no, this was a real crisis of national extinction.

Earthlings are the most proficient in genocide.

Their ancestors, the Homo sapiens, wiped out all of their fellow humans, and even in the Internet age, humans, who are known as the smartest race, will happily exterminate their neighbors.

However, no matter how the battle on the front line goes, it has nothing to do with Li Aoz.

After seeing the battle report from the front line, Xu Shen suddenly realized that the whole incident was planned by His Majesty Leoz.

Oshulia must perish.

If it does not perish, the Federation will not take action personally.

If the consortium does not intervene, Jing Yuan will remain aloof and live in seclusion in a corner.

It was because of the destruction of Oshulia that the people of Jingyuan felt the crisis, and they began to recognize and understand the brutality and terrible strength of the earthlings.

Only when Jing Yuan knows how terrible the earthlings are, will he be willing to take the initiative to fight against the secret.

The Oshulia Empire has 100 million people.

And what about Jing Yuan?

Although due to environmental issues, the population of Jingyuan is not as large as that of Chenyuan, but if you add up all the scattered tribes, settlements, countries, civilizations, and narratives - there are still hundreds of billions of them.

Use one thousandth of the price to exchange for the awakening of the entire realm.

Is it worth it?

So worth it.

If they don't awaken, these one hundred billion people in the Abyss will eventually be eaten up piece by piece like sausages.

But can you say that Li Aozzi is not heartbroken?

Li Aozzi appeared indifferent on the surface, but he was still impatient deep down.

It’s not that he felt at a loss.

Damn it, the one who died was not a person of narrative civilization.

Those were the people he had trained himself and who had sworn allegiance to him. It would be a lie for Li Aoz to say he wasn't heartbroken.

He was dissatisfied with the Union's dullness, pedantry, and slowness. If they were not so concerned about the immediate interests and had prepared for a comprehensive and secret war earlier, Oshulia would not have died so miserably.

Yes, Oshulia must be destroyed. Li Oz knew it, the Federation knew it, and even Secret might have guessed it a little.

However, if the consortium is more efficient, they may be able to maximize the value of Oshulia's death!
"Backward thinking, everyone only thinks about the interests of their own family, but forgets our real enemy."

Li Oz sneered.

After the fusion of the Tao, Li Aozi's emotions did not decrease, but became richer. Although Li Aozi did not hesitate when he made this decision, it did not mean that the matter was over.

"Forget it. After all, they are Xingyuan's compatriots."

He shook his head.

He planned to watch the war of the Narrative Consortium from the sidelines for a while, and during this period, he would not provide any help.

As for now...

The Tengwu Whale suddenly spewed out a large amount of hot air, and the majestic clouds and mist spread to the feet of Li Oz. The driver hurried over and reported to him:
"Your Majesty, we are here."

Lioz looked at the communication list - Silverston's coordinates were right in front of him.

"Speaking of which, here..."

Li Oz looked at the coordinates nearby and suddenly remembered something. He muttered:
"Isn't this the Alemanni Island, the novice village for Abyss players in version 6.0? Come to think of it, it's almost version 9.0, and Abyss isn't open yet."

"It is said that it will be released in the next version. Leanding has been wasting resources looking for Rand Lord, but he didn't expect that Rand Lord was right under his nose. Not only did he delay the progress of the version, but he also didn't find him. It's really ironic."

Fu Shen sneered at Lai Anding, then leaned over the railing and took a look down.

It didn't matter what he saw, Fu Shen was stunned for a long time.

"Leoz."

Fu Shen widened his eyes, opened his mouth, and said in disbelief:

"This, this place... doesn't seem right. This can't even be called a novice village!"

Without Fu Shen's reminder, Li Oz fired an [Eye of Truth] arcane missile and understood everything.

"Ok, I know."

The Tengwu Whale slowly descended in altitude, and the entire picture of Alemanni Island came into view, shocking every divine warrior present.

Fu Shen is right.

This place is definitely not a novice village.

A large number of suspended buildings stand on the island. Their architectural style is highly unified, with light golden silk threads and a surface coating between tiles and biomass, outlining a large number of Star Abyss Protoss patterns and designs. The complex city has no congestion, everything is highly automated, and logistics are quickly transmitted and transported through the Protoss' unique skills.

The entire island is an automated factory, a behemoth that produces its own infrastructure materials, develops its own mining industry, refines its own materials, operates and expands its own resources. Everything is in perfect order and full of the unique beauty of the gods.

The timeline connects each facility building, without human participation, no workers, no labor, as if only the first driving force was given in the production, and the rest was completely completed by the design drawings.

This scene immediately caused the divine warriors to be amazed.

"A first-order town! It's a first-order town! The original technology before the war outside the abyss!"

"Origin Star Abyss! This kind of technology can only be completed by the most skilled craftsmen in Origin Abyss! The production system used to resist the Destroyer is completely based on the crystallization of imagination and faith. It is technology, but it is not technology recognized by the [Recognition Eye]. It is a skill unique to our Protoss."

"This is exactly what Yuanyuan looked like in the beginning..."

The warriors landed from the Mist Whale and set foot in the city, with mixed thoughts and emotions.

This kind of thing, like suddenly seeing the most authentic hometown craftsmanship in a foreign country, happened in Jingyuan, which made them a little alert. Their first reaction was not sentimentality, but "Could it be that Lai Anding's people are coming?"

Facts have proved that this worry is unnecessary.

"Yo, Rioz."

A familiar voice sounded, and Li Aoz and others turned their heads, only to see a man fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan standing on the shore with a barbecue grill beside him, looking relaxed and amiable.

Seeing people looking at him, he just smiled:

"long time no see."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Li Aozi nodded, but Fu Shen and other Protoss warriors quickly knelt on one knee, touching their knees with their hands. The 1,500 warriors shouted in unison and respectfully:
"We pay our respects to His Majesty Silverston, the Supreme Saint and Lord God!"

Li Aoz rolled his eyes at Fu Shen:
"Why don't you worship me?"

Fu Shen quickly said:

"Your Majesty, as an agent, is equivalent to the status of the Lord God, but Your Majesty Silverston, He is the Lord God."

"……never mind."

Li Ozi shook his head:
"The real Mephidria has been dead for thousands of years, but the Mephidria in your hearts is still alive."

"You can't change all of them overnight with this kind of class concept."

Silverston walked forward with a smile, glanced at Fu Shen, and said:

"Get up, I haven't got my throne back yet."

"I will obey your order."

Xu Shen and the others then bowed and stood up, their attitudes becoming much more reserved.

Lioz didn't bother to correct their thoughts, words, and actions. He just looked at Silverston:

"You built Alemanni Island into an abyssal fortress. I saw the Heavy Polymer Processing Ritual Table, which can generate everything from biomass to adamantium. You should have everything you need."

"I'm short of people, Leoz, and I'm short of you even more."

Silverston smiled and said:
"You are not here for this. I know your habits. Are you here to find Rand Lord? Okay, but you have to tell me why you need this guy?"

“We must get Him.”

Fu Shen quickly said:

"With Rand Lord, we can overthrow Leanding's rule and push Him to the top. In this way, the main god of Yuanyuan will not be absent, and the "From the Star Abyss" plan can continue to be implemented. We can establish a narrative civilization that truly belongs to us, the divine warriors."

"You have a good way of expressing yourself, Mr. Xu Shenqing. I understand what you mean. You need Rand Lord to replace Leanding to maintain the players' ability to revive so as to continue to advance the game version. Moreover, Rand Lord is relatively weaker than Leanding and easier to control. In this way, you warriors can defeat the bureaucrats, redeem the gods, and rule Xingyuan."

Silverston's thinking was very clear, and he immediately pointed out Fu Shen's fundamental purpose:

"You want to rebel, but you don't want to lose Yuanyuan's leadership over all Xingyuan."

Fu Shen nodded and handed the other party a USB flash drive:
"This contains our nation-building plan for Shining Star Abyss, as well as our narrative concept: transcending nationalism (messianicism). We hope to force Leanding to abdicate as peacefully as possible without bloodshed outside the game..."

Silverston read the contents carefully, raised his head, and said to Fu Shen:

"I've seen it. Although there are some flaws, it's generally feasible and I can support you."

Fu Shen was overjoyed and immediately said:
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Our revolutionary cause will surely be accomplished with your help—"

"But, Xu Shenqing, there is a problem with your plan."

Silverston was not happy, but looked at Fu Shen and Li Oz:

"According to the founding principles in it:"

"The nominal supreme leader of Shining Star Abyss is the supreme god of this narrative, but the god himself does not participate in politics and only appears as a combat weapon. It is an open and inclusive republican system that allows representatives of all races and factions to participate in politics in the parliament and elect a 'deputy of the god'."

"The actual Supreme Commander is the Narrative Agent (Diaran), and the Supreme Leader of the Council is the Chairman. The Supreme Commander is only responsible to the Lord God and is appointed after recommendation."

"The acting leader here (Diaran) has the highest decision-making power and is actually the head of state. It is equivalent to the position of the president. The chairman of the parliament is actually the prime minister, just the party leader and the prime minister."

"According to the voting results of your first round of meetings, Fu Shenqing will serve as the interim chairman, and there is no need to elect an agent. Lioz joined the assistance through the Oshulia Empire and officially confirmed his position as the permanent agent."

"Well, I now face a procedural question."

Silverston looked at the two of them and said:
"Since I am the only one who is responsible to the Supreme Commander, as the Chairman of the Board, I cannot hand over Rand Lord to you. I can only hand Him over to Lord Leoz."

The two were stunned, neither of them had thought of this question.

The meeting was interrupted by Apostle Arthur halfway through, and there was no time to discuss the details, and they were dragged into the war again...

Silverston put his hands behind his back and asked seriously:

"So, Sir Leoz, how do you plan to use Rand Lord?"

Just as Lioz was about to speak, Silverston raised his hand to stop him and said:
"How about this? I'll take you to see Rand Lord first, so that you can confirm that He can fulfill the duties of the Lord God."

At this point, Li Oz couldn't say anything, and he didn't refute. Although Fu Shen was eager to say something, Silverston didn't intend to listen, and just took them through the first sequence town, took the train, and drove all the way to the deep mine.

After several hours, they stopped at a depth of 15 kilometers and began to walk. They then noticed that some traces of human activity had begun to appear in this automatic mining facility, such as footprints, food, clean water, and books.

Silverston didn't explain this, but chatted about something else:
"Do you think that Leanding knows how to love?"

"Love?" Fu Shen was at a loss. "I don't know what this thing means, but Geo Skua may know."

"I used to think that Leanding is just like you, maybe he understands, maybe he doesn't. If he doesn't understand love, why would he choose to take on the role of raising children?"

Silverston stroked his chin:

"But if He knew, then why would He send the child He personally raised to the battlefield to be used as cannon fodder?"

“That’s not contradictory.”

Li Ozi said calmly:
"Let alone gods, even humans, what about that? People can say to children, 'I'm doing this for your own good,' while punishing and teaching them a lesson, and even depriving them of their freedom. They really do love their children, and they want their children to succeed, which will make them respectable and wealthy, and make them feel fulfilled."

"That is to say, Lord Leotz thinks that maybe Leanding is like this?"

"No, I just experienced it myself."

Li Oz said casually:
"Zhi Xiang and I have more than 40 million children. We have so many descendants that I am completely numb. Even if more than half of them died, I would not be moved at all. For Leanding, giving birth to and creating so many gods may only make him feel pain and numbness. He cannot feel any honor, mercy, or love."

"Lian Ding, is he a tyrant?" asked Silverston.

Fu Shen shook his head:

"Not really. We can only say we are powerful officials. In fact, when it comes down to it, we are not against some of Lai Anding's plans. We just don't want to be like cannon fodder and waste our lives in Lai Anding's plans. We want to control our own destiny. We don't want to be treated as cannon fodder at will. Even if we are destined to die, it must be decided by our own will."

"So, you intend to overthrow Him for the sake of freedom."

Silverston looked at Lioz:
"What about you, Sir Leoze?"

"Whether or not Leanding is a tyrant is none of my business."

Liozzi gave a completely different answer:
"To be honest, Lai Anding and I don't have a big conflict, but our philosophies are very different. I don't hate Lai Anding himself, but I hate Lai Anding's weakness and appeasement. I hate injustice and prejudice - and more importantly, I'm the only one who knows how terrible our enemies are, and I know that Lai Anding will definitely destroy us. I don't have any desire for freedom and happiness. For me, power is just a tool and means that I want to use to do something to prevent Xingyuan from being destroyed."

"So, you're here to save the world?"

"Do not."

Li Ozi shook his head:
"I can save the world. So I'm going to do it. If everyone does what I can do, the world will be much more efficient."

Silverston stopped and turned to ask Lioz:
"Leoz, I've always been curious, what do you want to do with such high efficiency?"

“It’s efficient and allows us to do more things.”

"But we are gods, our lives are infinite, so even if we do more things, what's the point?"

"I do not know."

Li Oz said simply:

"But I think that doing more is meaningful. Meaningful things are done more. This world belongs not only to the gods, but also to the general public. Mortals, dragons, mayflies, paramecium, silicate minerals, stars, gadflies, blazars, factories, computers, film art..."

"I'm different from you. I'm a cannon fodder god. I was born to be a cannon fodder on the battlefield. I have no sense of mission, no sense of honor, and even no emotions. I started as a mortal and then I gradually understood these things."

"I am a cannon fodder god, a bank security guard in a small county on the edge of a city in the Frost-plated Republic, and I graduated from a technical secondary school. Later, I finally reincarnated as a crown prince, but I have no talent at all. If I hadn't had some accumulation from my previous life, I wouldn't have survived until I was 14, let alone become an emperor."

"I am nothing. I am everything. What I witnessed was not some legend. What I realized was not some great truth. What accompanied me along the way - in the end, only myself was left."

"So, I can't tell why I'm alive. I don't have any desires, but somehow, I live a lifetime, reincarnate and live another lifetime. I even feel like I can live until the end of the universe."

Lee Oz hasn't talked about his past in years.

Facing Silverston and the group of divine warriors under his command, people he could completely trust, he didn't bother to hide anything and spoke the truth.

"I don't have a big plan. I really just want to take back what belongs to me."

"Name, authority, identity, these are what other people have, but I don't have them. I want to take them back, and I want Xingyuan to give me fair and appropriate treatment, but Xingyuan always delays and refuses what should belong to me for various reasons."

"Why am I against the secrets? Because they took away everything I had, even the things I picked up along the way like garbage."

"I don't understand. I really don't understand. I still can't figure it out."

"From a cannon fodder god to a bank security guard. Why am I blocked by my own people and enemies when I did nothing but want fair treatment?"

"I don't understand. I chose to resist to the end, fought the Destroyer, and protected more lives. But Mephidria chose to abandon us and used the resources that should have been used on the battlefield to raise a monster called "Society"."

"But what I don't understand is that when I chose to become a tyrant and used all kinds of brutal means to suppress, enslave, and kill, even if I sacrificed more than 100 million lives of my own people and committed genocide like the people on Earth - no one questioned the treatment I received."

Lioz asked Silverston sincerely:

"I didn't have consciousness before, I didn't have thoughts, but now I do."

"Your Majesty, Lord God Silverston, can you tell me why everything I should have is gone?"

"I want fairness and justice, is it that difficult?"

"Is there something wrong with me, or is this Xingyuan full of unfair rules, taming everyone into slaves of their class, requiring us to bow our heads and pay tribute to everything we have?"

"I don't understand, Silverston, I really don't understand. Is it Leanding's fault, my fault, Mephidria's fault, the fault of the earthlings - or is this entire Xingyuan wrong?"

..............................

Silverston did not answer.

Rather, he was extremely calm, as if he had already realized that Leoz would say these words.

"I am very happy, Lord Leoz. As a friend, I am happy to see that you finally have your own independent personality and consciousness. I am really happy from the bottom of my heart."

Silverston walked to a door and said to Leoze:

"But the truth is often not what you wish. Fairness is really a difficult thing. I can't be fair, Xingyuan can't do it, and you can't do it either. In our Xingyuan world, this is a game full of class concepts."

"In the game, we can upgrade and grow through fighting, gambling, and training, and even cross classes and change our fate. However, in reality, fate is usually unchangeable. Just when you don't understand why the world is full of injustice - Sir Leoz, you have already become a beneficiary of this old-time class system."

"You are a cannon fodder god, but there are many more beings in this world who are neither cannon fodder nor gods. They are scrap iron and slag, plants and rocks, beings that do not even deserve to have will. If they want to change their own destiny, they need to wait for the elemental waves of tens of billions of years to awaken their spirits."

"Of course, I'm not asking you to compare yourself to a piece of stone. There's nothing to compare. I want to tell you a fact: in the Sixth Layer of the Star Abyss, there have never been good guys and bad guys. The so-called fairness and injustice have always been mutually transformed."

After that, he turned the handle, pushed the door open, and said to the inside:
"Rand Lord, someone is here to see you."

"Well, I see."

A calm and gentle voice sounded.

The lights in the room came on, and under the gaze of the people, a jade-like figure from the Yuanyuan clan knelt on the ground with his palms pressed on his thighs, meditating.

The facilities in the room were very simple and plain. Apart from the necessary daily necessities, there was not even a bed. It seemed that the gods were just sitting on the cushions and meditating as a substitute for hibernation.

Fu Shen and Li Aozi looked at the gods who were kneeling in meditation in front of them.

He was obviously a redeemed god, with a gentle face and long snail-like tentacles on his head. His blue-pink armor had been removed, and his body was quite thin and even skinny, without any signs of a life of luxury. Instead, there were shocking scars and bloodstains.

"Blood spots?"

Fu Shen was surprised.

The gods don't have a blood system, where do these blood spots come from?
"This is Rand Lord, the son of the God of Redemption you are looking for."

Silverston stepped forward, raised his hand, nodded slightly, and said:

"Rand Lord, criminal number 00001, sentence: 230 years of labor reform, good behavior and fifteen major meritorious services, hereby commuted to not guilty."

"One, rescue the fishermen who fell into the sea, and do not disclose the island information."

“Second, rescue construction equipment during natural disasters to avoid huge property losses.”

"Third, when I asked him to go out to purchase supplies, he bravely performed heroic deeds many times and was even seriously injured several times."

"Fourth, he proposed improvements to production technology, which was a great achievement."

"Five, privately confess your past cruelty, erect a monument for the dead, and swear to work naked with bare hands as a token of redemption. If I discover it, my sentence will be reduced."

"Six, he tricked Lai Anding's men who came to look for him away and protected the island's secrets."

"seven……"

"It goes without saying."

Fu Shen said:

"He has been in labor reform for so many years. Since the Lord God thinks there is no problem, there must be no moral problem - but what is the matter with the blood spots on his body..."

"It's the 'From the Star Abyss' project."

Rand Lord opened his eyes and said calmly:
"Lian Ding had already planted a small part of the server in my body a long time ago. That's why, after I caused a death, Lai Ding directly shut down the forum and maintained the server. In fact, he didn't shut down the forum and the server, but cut off the signal source of me as a node."

The clever Eleventh reacted immediately:
"In other words, you are a signal base station and carry part of the computing power of From the Star Abyss? That's why you have so many blood spots and scars on your body... For Lai Anding, even if he can't find you, you are still bearing the cost of reviving the players in the Star Abyss."

"Yes." Rand Lord nodded and said calmly: "When Leanding realized that he couldn't find me, he activated the computing power in me and asked me to bear the consumption of nearby players. After all, I am not in Yuanyuan, and I have no way to maintain my body. After so many years, many problems have accumulated."

"Fuck!" Atreya Night Breeze was shocked: "For the sake of the 'From the Star Abyss' plan, Leanding actually attacked his own son?"

"…This is why we must overthrow Lai Anding."

Fu Shen opened his mouth with a complicated expression:
"For Lai Anding, if necessary, even the inheritor of his mantle can be used as cannon fodder."

"In the past, Rand Lord, as the inheritor and successor, was envied by you all. Even he himself believed that he was a noble descendant of the Lord God and would rule everything sooner or later. However, if you want to wear the crown, you must bear the weight. Those who think they are rulers are actually just high-level cannon fodder."

Silverston spoke divine words, telling all this calmly:
"I made him do labor reform and took him to a mortal city. Under my supervision, I made him start from the bottom of the labor class, experience the sufferings and warmth of the world, reform himself, sincerely repent of his crimes, and give him enough education."

"Of course, all of this is not as good as knowing that he is also a pawn of Leanding. The torture of computing power on his body is better than my labor reform education. Since then, Rand Lord's worldview has collapsed."

"He renamed himself Nie Gu, meaning a body that carries sins. He abstains from meat and fish, practices asceticism with all his heart, and remembers his past sins. He also works hard. He deserves half the credit for building this first-order town."

He looked at Lioz and said:

"Sir Leoz, do you still think that those high and mighty gods are the ones who have caused you injustice?"

Lioz did not answer.

He looked at Rand Lord - or his evil bones - who was covered in wounds and torture, but remained calm, refusing to groan or complain, but instead endured the feelings with his heart.

What should he say?
Silverston had said it very clearly and very bluntly.

He was telling Liozzi a very simple truth:
In the six layers of the Star Abyss, from the main god to the ant, no one is wrong, a sinner, or a villain.

Those who create injustice are also victims of this process. If they choose to be fair, they will be doing injustice to their own class.

Justice and fairness.

If justice and fairness really exists in Xingyuan, then why is Xingyuan divided into six layers, with the power and status increasing as one goes down? Why can the gods of Yuanyuan enjoy peace and tranquility and have enough food and clothing without engaging in production?
Class, rank.

If there is really equality in the game, then why are those with higher levels stronger, and why are those players who got into the game early also easily beaten by talented professional players?

Lioz understood.

——Because in this endless star abyss, there has never been a concept of fairness and justice.

Xingyuan originally had nothing. At the beginning of the universe, there was chaos and everything was stagnant and unchanging.

The Dragon King brings light, life, and desire.

The Titans brought darkness, death, and wildness.

The magic eye brought skill, science, and rationality.

There is no fairness or equity, no morality or justice in what the Destroyers bring.

Neither Xingyuan nor the Destroyer has these things. If you want them, you can only make them yourself.

"Sir Leoz, the Agent, now it's my turn to ask you."

Silverston's voice dragged Li Oz back to reality. He looked at Li Oz and asked seriously:
"As Xingyuan's agent, you are directly responsible to me, the active main god, but I do not have the power to interfere with your decisions. Therefore, no matter what resolution you make, I will only agree and approve it."

"Even so, for procedural reasons, I still have to ask you: How do you decide to deal with the son of Leanding, the god formerly known as Rand Lord and now known as 'Nie Gu'? This move will directly affect the future fate of Xingyuan. I tell you with the intuition of the Lord God: once you make a decision, there is no turning back."

"So, how will you deal with the 'evil bones'?"

....................................

Xu Shen didn't dare to speak anymore.

He looked at Li Oz, hoping that he would make the decision he wanted.

Especially after what Silverston said, Li Oz should be more confident in his plan.

However, just when Xu Shen thought that Li Aozi was thinking silently, Li Aozi was looking at the message that popped up in front of him.

He had never heard of this situation, but from the red and black evil spirits on the border of the information, he could tell that this was the result of the interference of Lord Entropy's power.

Information comes from both the [Task] and [Destiny] systems.

[Mission Difficulty]: No difficulty

【Introduction】:
"Respected Lord Li Oz, I am Player Prior, the designer of Star Abyss. Since you have come here, it means that you have discovered the secret of Rand Lord. All my attempts to conceal it have finally failed."

"I have been trying to help the people of Xingyuan from being invaded by the Earth. Initially, I chose Lai Anding as my partner because I thought that as a mother, she would be more compassionate and kind. But I was wrong. There is no compassion in Xingyuan. Everyone is a powerful official and a scheming person. Including you. As long as you stay in Xingyuan for a long time, you and I will become part of the oppressors."

"But I'm sorry to tell you that you're not special. Even if you didn't take action, I was going to make Rand Lord disappear. It's just that I happened to meet you, and you happened to discover the [Destiny] system... What should I do? I don't know when the next player who discovers [Destiny] will come out, so I can only choose you."

"Let me tell you the truth, Lord Lioz, I want to make a deal with you."

"I am not Lord Entropy, but I have borrowed some of its power through the server. Now, you can choose two paths:"

"1: Let Rand Lord go. From now on, I can guarantee that you will be able to return to the countryside and live a safe and happy life. I have used the power of Entropy to show you this scene."

"2: First of all, I don't want you to do this. I'd rather the world produce 20 fewer AAA games than you would if you didn't do this, I'd pay for it, for Donkey, Paradox, Eidetsu Miyazaki, Nintendo, Nintendo Switch, and Snow Leopard."

"Secondly, if you insist on doing it, I can only follow the destiny of this path and continue making games."

"I guess you might do this, but please, don't do it. If not for me, for the programmer slaves recruited by Leanding, and for the war you will cause, don't do it."

"——From producer [Player] Prior."

【Settlement conditions】：
Rand Lord used to be a bad-mannered, arrogant oppressor, and the heir of Leanding. Now, it is time to decide His fate.

A. "Song of Redemption": Let go of the evil bone and hand him over to the "Empire Route: Spirit Deer Ending". The game ends and the clearance CG and production team list are played;

B. "Only Blood Pays": Killing Rand Lord - Leads to the "Voidline: White Wolf Ending", where the game continues until the next settlement phase is reached.

Note: In the next stage, you will still have different options to choose between the two endings: Dragon and Demon.

　Dear readers, whether you make a choice or not, [Spiritual Deer] and other endings will be released as free chapters. You can choose any ending you like to read.

　　If you are not satisfied with the ending of [Spirit Deer], a new chapter will begin, leading to [White Wolf] and five other endings.

　　Each ending will have a lot of words, I hope you like it.

　　Thank you very much for reading this. I have been unable to write for a long time in the past due to liver disease and overwork. Now I will resume writing and strive to give you more chapters of ten thousand words.

　　In addition, you can pay attention to my friend Hai Shishui's work: The Only Player
