When the cloud of despair shrouded everyone's hearts, Su Mu felt that it was almost time. The release of hundreds of millions of nightmare creatures this time relieved the pressure on the Seven Kings Barrier in one fell swoop, and at least extended the life of the Seven Kings Barrier for another month.
If more were released, humanity would completely collapse in the face of absolute despair.
When he said that a new era was about to begin, he was not just talking. Humankind has lived in comfort for too long. With no foreign invasion, humans have been busy fighting among themselves all day long, resulting in a serious waste of manpower.
Within the major empires, the nobles and wealthy controlled the extraordinary paths and extraordinary potions, blocking the channels for promotion and resulting in poverty throughout the empire.
Today, he wants to completely change the world pattern, break the monopoly of the nobility, and personally create an extraordinary era for all people!
And the first step is... to make humans lose the ocean!
He deliberately released the nightmare creatures into the sea. The sea is sparsely populated, and it takes a certain amount of time for nightmare creatures to invade the land from the sea. This gives humans a great buffer and allows them to be adequately prepared.
If this wave of nightmare invasion were launched into any empire, the consequences can be imagined, and it would fall apart in an instant.
Moreover, he deliberately chose to drop the weapon from a high altitude, which was actually helping humans. With free fall from a thousand meters above the ground, some weak nightmare creatures such as zombies would basically die as soon as they hit the ground.
The fragile body slammed into the sea and broke into pieces.
After this wave of operations, at least several million low-level nightmare creatures were buried in the ocean, which is more than the number killed by the seven kings together just now.
Unfortunately, no one knew about his good intentions. People only knew that Arrogance was the god of destruction, but they didn't know that he was the savior.
Of course, Su Mu never needs the world to understand him. Isn’t that what makes it interesting?
He never intended to tell the world the truth about the world, because it would be useless and would instead cause great panic. Once human beings know that the world is fake, including themselves, they may do anything.
Back then, the seven first kings did not make the truth public for this reason.
Afterwards, Sumu closed the huge abyss crack, the invading nightmare torrent came to an abrupt stop, and the sun shone again.
But the warm sunshine shining into everyone's hearts only brought them the coldness of despair.
The sea...no, it should be called the Black Sea now.
Looking around, there were densely packed nightmare creatures of various shapes floating on the sea, stretching as far as the eye could see, as if the sea had been dyed black.
The faceless man, the green-faced general, the ghost doll, the ten-thousand-meter-long giant snake, the tentacle monster, the shadow man, the scarecrow... and many other monsters that are difficult to describe in words.
All the nightmares that mankind has dreamed of from ancient times to the present day are now on stage.
The only thing to be thankful for is that there are no saints like the faceless angel. This is probably the only good news in this desperate situation.
Driven by the waves, endless nightmare creatures formed black tides, constantly attacking the Seven Kings and others. These high and mighty kings and nobles fled to the huge ship they came from in panic, frantically attacking the incoming nightmare creatures.
However, Arrogance, the protagonist who opened the door to the era, has disappeared at this time.
"Pride... is gone." The Red King looked at the sky with a complicated expression, feeling the Supreme Heaven going away.
The huge ship she was on was fleeing at a high speed. She had been injured in the previous battle with the faceless angel. Now neither she nor the other six kings were able to fight against these endless nightmare creatures and could only retreat first.
"He is gone, but the nightmare creature is still here." Gongsun Quan's face was pale. He had just been brought onto the boat by the golden strong man in an instant, and it seemed that two of his ribs were broken.
"Times have really changed. Such a massive invasion of nightmares has surpassed the total of the past few decades. If it weren't for Prideful's choice to open the nightmare channel at sea, the people on land would probably..." Dongfang Yuan said in horror.
This old and powerful man of the empire had experienced countless tragic wars and could remain calm in the face of blood and gore. But today he completely lost his composure.
"This is also a problem that I can't understand. Pride obviously possesses such powerful strength. If he opens the nightmare channel in the Red Flame Empire, the Red Flame Empire will be in danger of extinction. But he chose to do it at the Seven Kings Conference, on the sea, and even allowed his pet to be killed by the Seven Kings." Gongsun Quan frowned.
"Have you ever raised a cat?" Chi Wang said in a low voice as he stood by the boat, looking at the endless tide of nightmares.
"When I was a child, I had a cat. It was very cute and fierce. It looked harmless. But one day, I saw it catch a mouse. I thought it would eat the mouse directly, but it repeatedly let the mouse go and caught it again, constantly teasing the mouse with its claws."
Gongsun Quan's face darkened at King Chi's words.
"Your Majesty is right. I was being too picky. Now Pride is the cat and we are the mice. Using the mouse's thinking to figure out the cat will only make the cat laugh. I can now understand what Pride said before. When humans think, the gods laugh. Yes, I think I am incomparable in wisdom, but in the end, it is just the wisdom of a mortal. I can never figure out the gods."
Gongsun Quan took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Let's not talk about the gods for now. As human beings and subjects of the Red Flame Empire, all we can do is to actively respond to all disasters under the leadership of Your Majesty.
Your Majesty, according to my prediction, after today, mankind may lose the ocean forever. The ocean will become the nest of nightmare creatures, and they will erode the land bit by bit through the ocean. We must guard against this.
I have three suggestions!"
"Speak." There was no emotion in Chi Wang's voice, and no one knew what she was thinking.
"Yes, Your Majesty. First, the Seven Deadly Sins concern the entire world. The seven kings must put aside their past hatreds and form a Seven Kings Alliance to jointly deal with the Nightmare invasion.
Second, remove the restrictions on extraordinary paths and extraordinary potions to allow more extraordinary people to be born among civilians.
Third, mobilize national resources to transform coastal cities. The coastal cities will be the first to bear the brunt of the Nightmare invasion. I think we should mobilize the national reserve of Mithril, refine Mithril alloy to build high walls in coastal cities, and dispatch extraordinary troops to station there. We must not let the Nightmare enter the inland!"
Gongsun Quan is worthy of being an imperial counselor. Even after witnessing such a desperate gap, he still rationally formulated a response strategy.
You know, even some of the golden strong men are still in a state of emotional breakdown and are filled with fear.
"Do as you say. I'm tired." The Red King turned and walked towards her room, but after taking two steps, she suddenly stopped.
"By the way, Su Mu should not be arrogant. I have contacted his clone. During the Seven Kings Meeting, he was in a nightmare with Su Qing. He should be back soon."
