Half a day ago.
In the ruins.
Kane Gene stared blankly at the man standing in front of him, covered in blood.
"Kane, come here." Bart Gene said while coughing up blood, "Come here, let me take another look at you."
"Bart, stop talking."
Kane rushed over and supported him.
"Don't bother. I'm done. You know, this isn't the first time you've seen this scene."
Bart smiled, ruffled his hair and said:
"I still remember the first time that old man sent you to the Sword Courtyard. Your eyes were full of curiosity and fear. Now that I think about it, it seems like it was just yesterday."
"Bart, stop talking."
Bart smiled and said, "You have to finish explaining everything. After all, you will have to face it yourself next."
He ruffled Kane's hair and whispered, "Unlike that old guy, he had to choose you at that time because he had no chance, but this time, I chose you."
"Bart..."
"Listen carefully, Kane. After this battle, the Rockhi Empire will inevitably decline from the peak of the top country. The next few years will be a long and difficult journey for you."
Bart began to babble and explain to the little dragon emperor the affairs after his death.
Originally, Kane wanted him to speak less and try to take care of his health.
But his reason told him that it was impossible.
So he could only watch silently as this man who had fought for the Jean family and the Rocky Empire all his life left him his final instructions.
"Don't provoke the Enser Empire. In other words, try to build a good relationship with Louis. That guy has a touch of humanity that is rare in the God Realm. He has taught you before. When you see him in the future, treat him with respect as a teacher."
"good."
"The core members of the escape faction have already left. The empire has permanently lost one-third of its high-end combat power. The transfer faction is the target that you must try your best to win over next. Remember to remind them not to anger Louis."
"good."
"Don't be nice all the time. This is a piece of advice. Louis is much more dangerous than the emperor. The emperor loves his people deeply, and many forces have already anticipated that he would fall to this point, but Louis is different..."
Kane hesitated and said, "Is it because he will be stronger in the future?"
"No, it's because that kid has a very low bottom line. You'll know if you spend more time with him. He has no concept of empire, or even the concept of the Star People."
Bart's voice became increasingly difficult, and after spitting out the dirty blood, he said solemnly: "If the Platinum Giant Elephant decided to flee because he decided to leave a trace of pure Roxyism, then Louis is a natural fugitive. The reason he stays here is simply because there are people waiting for him to go home."
“…”
"So... once you really touch his bottom line, you will see a monster with even less bottom line than the emperor. He can block the door of Roxy's house and kill all the opponents bit by bit. No top empire can withstand such a monster doing this for two years, even Roxy in its heyday."
"I-I understand."
"The first great disaster, the destruction of the Golden City, is bound to have twists and turns. What has really erupted now is nothing more than the Cosmic Serpent and the Dark Side of the God of Love. You have already seen the result."
"With the power of one country, it will surely perish...?"
"Yes, that's why I said that the escape faction is too idealistic. The true Roxy Golden Spirit is to face a desperate situation, know failure, and still choose to burn everything and leave the fire. Escaping will not leave the fire. Choosing to compromise with the temple is only temporary."
"I remember that."
"The Golden Country is the second wave of impact we need to face. We need to get closer to Enser. Their plan for the entire industrial chain has something to offer. If we pay a sufficient price, we should fully join in. The other family heads have already reached a consensus on this."
"Um."
"Although the fifth disaster, the Shadow God Evil, was solved by the Emperor, it is hard to say. Be prepared. If the Emperor doesn't solve it, there will be a counterattack. If the Emperor solves it, he will never be able to stand up from the throne again."
"throne?"
"You can communicate with other family heads for details."
"good."
“If you can pay attention to Flinn Devil Sunflower, then pay attention. If not, just wait for others to pass on the news. The first ones to be affected are the Dragon Empire, the Crucible, and the Hidden Forest. The High Forest will never allow the Hidden Forest to decline further. Otherwise, they will have to fight alone on the continent, which is a very scary thing.
If the Hidden Forest is frustrated, the High Forest will further mobilize the elves from the Tranquil Forest. If you pay more attention to the Tranquil Forest, you will know the situation of the Golden Country and the Phelin Magic Sunflower. "
"Don't we need to take care of the last disaster?"
"No one knows the details of the last great disaster. The only words passed down by the head of the Tian Chi Niao family before his death were that the final battle does not depend on our will."
"good."
"Well... I have explained everything that needs to be said. My child, you will be crowned king. Go and greet your family. And..."
Bart Gene's voice grew weaker and weaker: "Never lose yourself again. Just like you told me that year, you want to be... a hero."
Kane never heard from Bart again after that.
He froze in place.
When the dragon ball that was sparkling with hellish black fire slowly emerged and fell into his hands, he suddenly realized something.
From now on, he will have to be the head of the family himself.
The unprecedented burden brought by the sense of responsibility made the young man unable to raise his head.
"Bart...you always tell me to be a man, but at least, at least today..."
He tried to wipe his eyes with his sleeve.
"Let me be a coward one last time."
A tear dropped.
The dark flames slowly devoured Bart's body, and the brilliant demigod's blood gathered into shape. The Hell Dragon Ball hovered around the blood for a long time.
A sad atmosphere permeates.
The blood slowly seeped into his body.
Then, a surge of energy burst out from his body.
LV31.
LV32.
LV33.
…
Soared all the way to LV40.
In the distance, a witch was lying on a recliner, watching this scene quietly and saying:
"Ah, is this the true result of the great sin experiment?"
That is the Great Witch's Arcane Miracle Hut.
She looked at the little Dragon Emperor in the distance who had climbed to the peak of demigod in an instant and chuckled.
After a moment she turned her head and looked to the side.
"Don't you think this scene is familiar? Lazy Witch."
The Black Swan looked calm, standing there, not knowing what he was thinking.
The Great Witch didn't get a response, so she smiled and said, "This is the final result of the Great Sin experiment, [Simulated Mutual Gluttony], imitating the Great Sins devouring each other, and finally achieving the forbidden technique of promotion.
For the thirteen families who devour the essence of alien blood with the cursed swordsman, this is the key to restarting life at the brink of destruction."
Black Swan said calmly: "It's just that the various problems that will arise in the future because of the power of bloodline are another story."
This was the day that Kane Gene finally shed his reputation as the Little Dragon King.
Dragon Emperor Kane steps onto the stage of history.
…
Location: The Palace of Lokshi Originally used as the palace of the Honorary Emperor of Lokshi, it is now in ruins.
Kane walked on top with a numb expression, no longer having the innocence of a teenager.
The other family heads were either dead or disabled.
Many people have already started [creating a virtual gluttony] in advance to pass on their power to the next generation.
However, the casualties among high-level combat forces were too heavy.
If you count carefully, all the demigods are either dead or have suffered irreversible damage and have to start retiring.
Under such circumstances, Kane passed a resolution with his absolute authority gained through his current strength.
The demigod who has lost his possibility leaves the opportunity to others with talent.
In the end, there were a total of 8 family factions including the transfer faction and the opposition faction. Only 2 factions were able to cultivate 2 top demigods through the [virtual gluttony] between demigods.
The remaining six factions only produced six legends.
Taking into account the current situation and the fact that the invasion of the giant world group on the ground of the space channel was temporarily interrupted, the resistance faction and the transfer faction reached a consensus to rebuild the wasteland.
This afternoon.
There were still a lot of things to be done, and a senior executive hurried over to Kane:
"What?"
"When Roxy was born thousands of years ago, the collection box left by the thirteen family heads is under the place where the Thirteen Family Agreement was signed in the old palace."
"Let's go and take a look."
When they walked there, they saw a wooden box protected by layers of rune arrays.
Kane stretched out his hand and touched the magic circle, and the runes on the wooden box gradually dissipated.
He was stunned.
This magic circle doesn't have much protective power, its main function is to distinguish whether one has the thirteen families' magical tools.
He had learned a lot from Bart, so he could still recognize this magic circle.
Obviously, this is what our ancestors left to future generations.
Kane wondered if there was anything among them that could help him obtain the treasures of the current empire?
When he opened it, he found only a piece of gold paper left in the wooden box that was protected by layers of rune arrays.
Letter:
【Rockheed Martin Joint Founding Day】
Below:
"Hello, dear golden child:"
"Today is a special day and we celebrate this great and hopeful day with great enthusiasm."
"Our times are interesting, and I'm sure your times are interesting too. We are still building the Roxy Golden Spirit, gradually giving up the support of God and moving towards self-reliance and independence."
"By the time you are there, you should have already lived a life where you no longer need to believe in gods, but can create your own future with your own hands, right?"
"I believe that you have developed our land, opened up the ocean, and explored the depths of the stars. You are continuing our ideals and moving towards the unknown future."
"Perhaps you have already wandered the realms by now?"
"Have you exchanged knowledge and technology with the refugees from the astral world?"
"I believe that the work done by our grandfathers and fathers will continue in your hands and achieve victory."
"That must be a scene we can only see in our dreams. Until then, please place a bouquet of flowers on our tombstones!"
"When the world where everyone is like a god comes, and when the flag of Roxy flies high, it must be that we have kept our original oath and come back to see you."
"From all thirteen families"
Roaring dragon.
Tiger flapping its wings.
Lion howling at the moon.
An elephant walking on ice.
Burning bird.
Armored snake.
The invincible wolf.
Deer looking back.
Monkey holding a stick.
Running rabbit.
Cunning fox.
A whale flipping over the sea.
Charging bull.
13 animal patterns are engraved on it.
Quietly guarding this letter.
Kane held the letter, his hands shaking for some reason.
Looking up, he saw the city in ruins.
Turning around, I saw a road extending into the wilderness.
The family crests of the thirteen families have faded, and along with them the thirteen divine instruments have fallen apart.
The remaining eight families are struggling to survive on this homeland.
And they, with their own hands, ended the era that their ancestors had dreamed of.
They will welcome faith from the gods.
The country where everyone is like a god and everyone is independent has come to an end.
At this moment, he seemed to understand why the escapees had to go to the star realm.
In this era, they do not see the slightest possibility of continuing the ideals of their ancestors.
So they chose to flee, fleeing into the depths of the starry sky.
Kane closed his eyes silently.
It is indeed extremely painful to break the original oath.
But now Roxy has lost the reason to maintain his atheism.
This land needs the protection of the church.
But... idealism may fade, but one day.
"One day...we will get back the era we always dreamed of."
He opened his eyes and made his final judgment:
"Everyone, since we want to let faith flow into Roxie, why don't we create a god for us Roxie people first, just like those long-eared people?"
"for example?"
"For example, the Eternal Blazing Sun."
"The Eternal Sun has fallen."
"But He still has relics left in the world."
"You mean..."
“Let’s make the Church of the Blazing Sun the state religion, gather the faith of countless people, direct everything to the Blazing Sun, and let the new Blazing Sun God rise from these ruins.”
"Is this okay?"
"It doesn't matter. This is a gift of justice that lasts until death."
Hearing this, the family heads pondered for a moment, various thoughts emerged in their minds, and finally they all reached a consensus.
As everyone nodded, Kane's body gradually flew high into the sky.
The power of the top demigod covered the entire venue, and a cold and resolute voice sounded.
"Members of all families fought bloody battles until everything was over...
But troubled times have arrived, and relying solely on our own strength will only bring more casualties to innocent people...
You have the freedom to believe in God, and you also have the freedom not to believe in God.
There is the freedom to believe in this God, and there is also the freedom not to believe in that God.
The Knights of the Blazing Sun have come to an end, but the Knights of the Blazing Sun are engraved on the land of the Empire."
The deafening sound spread in all directions.
Finally, Dragon Emperor Kane said those words with difficulty: "From now on, the Church of the Blazing Sun will be listed as the state religion of the Rockhi Empire, because they are the most determined ally standing by our side during the turmoil."
At this moment, endless faith began to divide.
A very heavy weight poured into the Eternal Sun, but because of His complete fall, it gradually turned to the Voice of Fiction.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, a new figure slowly rises.
He was a knight chasing the eternal sun.
Its name is——
[Son of the Sun].
At this moment, the dawn of the eternal sun came to an end.
But the evening of the Son of the Sun has come.
The Dragon Emperor watched this scene quietly. After a long while, he lowered his head and said, "One day, one day..."
Finally, there was a long silence.
