Chapter 599: 597: Becoming a King with a Mortal Body
Saint John came quickly and left even faster. Almost immediately after reporting the news, he returned to the 138th level of the abyss.
It was difficult for him. A cardinal, a legendary figure, so noble, but he was almost reduced to a messenger.
But such secret information could not be put into writing, so he had to run back and forth again.
As for Luo Yiti’s problems?
He couldn't answer any of them.
After he left, Luo Yi sat there for a long time without moving, lost in thought.
Frankly speaking, he did not expect the Sun God's overreaction.
Why is the war of gods about to begin?
Is this too extreme?
After all, environmental pollution and destruction of the ecosystem are long-term goals, and prevention now can actually buy a lot of time.
However, the sun god directly issued the oracle, which was a desperate gamble.
Is there any deep-seated reason for being so anxious?
Or is it simply that these gods are already prepared?
Luo Yi tried to put himself in the role of the Sun God to watch this battle of protection.
Or, perhaps, put yourself in the shoes of the Argentum Arcane Council and watch this dimensional invasion unfold?
You know what, changing your perspective can actually give you different insights.
For example, the Arcane Council aboard the Silvertop must have known about Ignazio Rivera's death.
The disappearance of the Seven Gods' projections and the escape of the hidden arcanist after being struck by him would also bring back news.
This will inevitably alert the Arcane Council.
It is difficult to say whether they will overreact or have some unpredictable response measures.
For the Sun God, instead of waiting for the Arcane Council to take action, it would be better for them to take the initiative to start a war between gods!
This battle is ultimately unavoidable!
But this is not good news for Luo Yi. If it drags on longer, he will have more time to develop.
The iteration of Flower Leader’s weapons also requires time to accumulate.
At this moment, a pair of slender white hands pressed on Luo Yi's temples and rubbed them gently for him.
Luo Yi closed his eyes slightly, leaned back, and looked somewhat enjoyable.
Lilia's voice came, full of worry: "Luo Yi, is there going to be another war? Will it be very dangerous this time?"
Luo Yi comforted him, "Don't worry, we are not the main force this time.
With so many Helka gods here, how can we be the first to take the lead?!"
After a slight pause, he continued, "However, the vacation is about to end, and I have to be busy again."
"What are you going to do?"
Luo Yi raised his hand, searched in the Proverbs Ring, and finally took out a bound plan and threw it on the table.
"This was made a long time ago, and I really didn't expect that I would use it so soon."
Lilia looked over curiously and saw that it was clearly written on the cover of the plan - The Second Phase of the Abyss Strategy, Becoming a King.
…
Abyss Fortress.
This is a huge conference room with a circular design and three floors, large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people at the same time.
It's more like a performance hall than a conference room.
This place was also built by Luo Yi against all odds, and it was put into use immediately after the pace of the war slowed down.
The abyss is a place full of demons, and the warriors fight all the time. Keeping the mind tense for a long time will cause problems.
Therefore, some entertainment activities must be arranged, and this performance hall can be used as a screening room.
The latest movies from Xianhualing will all premiere here, especially those that are not available on the market, have not yet been released, or are stuck in review. There are no taboos here.
Roy even planned to invite the most famous song and dance troupes, musicians, and stage plays to perform for the soldiers here.
However, today, the people gathered here are at most grassroots commanders.
The Guards Infantry Battalion sat together, the tank soldiers sat together, the artillery soldiers sat together, and the air force pilots sat together.
The military uniforms are clearly colored and look very energetic.
In addition to them, there is also the Holy War Legion from the Church of the Sun God, which has completed five rotations and trained at least 40,000 experienced soldiers.
In terms of equipment, they were still short. Even if the church and the Flower Territory had reached a purchase agreement, Loyi would have to prioritize the replacement of equipment after the Guards.
Moreover, it is impossible to give them the most advanced ones.
However, in terms of the quality of soldiers and personal strength, they are really no match.
After all, no matter how powerful the Flower Territory is, it only has such a small territory, while the Church of the Sun God can select personnel and draw troops from almost the entire Helka plane.
It can be said that those who can come here are all strong people picked from hundreds.
Just sitting there, in an orderly and uniform manner, the spirit and energy they exude is of a higher level.
There is also the magic eye alliance's mage corps. This group of people seems much more undisciplined, but a group of mages wearing magic robes gathered there is very eye-catching.
Going up further, to the second floor, all of them are fourth-order natural disaster masters, or commanders of various troops. The lowest level is the regimental commander.
On the third floor, there are only fifth-order legendary beings.
Including those from the Flower Territory, the Magic Eye Alliance, and the Church of the Sun God, there are nearly thirty of them in total.
Just sitting there, even without exuding any aura, was enough to make the air stagnant and make people feel breathless.
Because it was an impromptu meeting and there was no specific agenda, the venue seemed a bit noisy.
Even the legends on the third floor were exchanging opinions and discussing something.
The most annoying one should be the King of Evil Eyes. Everyone thought he knew something, and there were a lot of people around him. He was so annoyed that he just waved his staff, and the fog spread and disappeared.
However, they didn't have to wait long.
Si Ang Ang Ang…
A dragon roar was heard, loud enough to shake the earth. The dome of the conference hall opened and holy light poured down from the sky.
The sound of flapping wings was heard, and the space was shaking. The huge body of the red dragon Virgil Berry fell, rolled nimbly, and landed on the ground.
Amidst the rumbling sound of the earth, the might of a dragon spread out, shocking everyone present.
The dragon wings slowly folded, revealing Luo Yi's figure. He stood between the dragon horns, his posture tall and straight, as majestic as a mountain.
Luo Yi didn't waste time talking and went straight to the point.
His voice resounded throughout the audience: "Since I started implementing the Abyss Strategy and established a base on the 138th floor of the Abyss, I have experienced too many bitter battles.
There were several life-and-death crises, and he almost gave up the fortress and retreated to the demiplane.
But no matter what, we survived and even won a great victory.
Currently, we occupy three demon territories, and have lost four demon lords, eighteen secondary demon lords, and countless mid- and high-level demons.
Today, we have firmly established our foothold here, and no demon dares to threaten to drive us out of the abyss.
But is that enough? Is it really enough?
"I think it's not enough, far from enough. There are so many demon lords and kings of the abyss on the 138th floor of the abyss, and they are all eyeing us covetously."
"What I have to do is to clear them all out and completely occupy this place.
I will lead you to become legends of the multiverse, the most incredible legend."
"I will become the undisputed master of the 138th floor of the Abyss."
"I will become the King of the Abyss with my mortal body!"
The resounding voices seemed to overlap layer upon layer, with a shocking power that projected into the hearts of everyone present and completely ignited their passion.
"Are you willing to follow me and fight until the end of time?"
In the huge conference hall, it seemed that only echoes and the sound of violent heartbeats could be heard.
Time passed slowly, and just when Roy was beginning to suspect that his public speaking skills were declining, a soldier from the Guards suddenly jumped up.
His face flushed crimson, and he roared loudly: "War, war, war!"
This was just the beginning. The next second, other soldiers jumped up, and then it spread to the natural disasters on the second floor, and even to the legendary strongmen on the third floor.
In an instant, the entire conference room was filled with noise.
At the beginning, it was a bit messy, but later it became neat and uniform.
Even the specially treated conference room could not stop the spread of the roar, so that the entire war fortress was drowned in huge cheers.
The King of Evil Eyes felt like he was going crazy.
who is he?
This old monster who has lived for who knows how many years is also a magician known for his calmness. Even if the Succubus Queen comes, it may not be possible to excite him.
But now, he felt his blood boiling and his hand holding the staff was shaking.
Was Roy's speech exciting?
He thought it was not the case, but the phrase 'to achieve the throne of the king of the abyss as a mortal' made it difficult for him to control himself!
He always has the feeling that he is making history!
He always felt that he would become a part of the legend!
"Fight! Fight! Fight!"
He also shouted and looked around shamefully, only to find that he had covered his figure with fog.
That's okay!
However, Luo Yi's occasional glances seemed very strange.
A speech not only conveyed the strategic goals and mobilized the enthusiasm of grassroots commanders, but also achieved ideological unity.
However, when a group of soldiers were screaming and howling out of excitement, Luo Yi was not in a hurry to start a war.
Instead, we should put more energy into preparing for battle.
In fact, the second phase of the Abyss Strategy said that it was to "become the King of the Abyss with a mortal body", but Luo Yi knew the real purpose.
First, it is still about training troops. Then, with the relaxed rules of the abyss, sufficient resources, and the tempering of war, a truly strong army can be trained.
It's not just the magic army, there must also be enough strong people growing up.
Second, continue to promote the updating and iteration of weapons.
Luo Yi's goal is also very clear. If one day, the war machinery of Flower Territory can sail in the star realm like the Silver Top, it will be considered an achievement.
Before that, weapons research and development cannot stop.
Third, Luo Yi was actually a little worried about the outcome of the war between gods.
The Sun God is very powerful, and the gods of the New World are not weak either, but the floating city in the star realm must be equally powerful.
Who will win and who will lose in this fight between the two sides?
Roy didn't know, and didn't even want to guess, but there was no doubt that he was on Helka's side.
Before thinking about victory, think about defeat first. As a leader, he needs to consider more.
Therefore, he wanted to completely occupy the 138th floor of the abyss.
In other words, even if he cannot occupy the entire area, he must have a large enough area to build his own territory.
If one day Helka loses the war, he will have a way out.
Based on these goals, construction is far more important than occupation.
Therefore, the strategic focus of the second phase is to capture cities and territories, which are secondary. Building more war bases is what we need to implement now.
The priority is the three demon territories of the Great Demon Lord Odoak, the Soul Judge Lord and the Eye Demon Lord.
Before, Luo Yi just robbed a few and ran away, but now, he plans to work hard on the original site of the Demon Castle and build a fortress belonging to the Flower Territory.
Then, use a stable large space portal to establish communication and build a stable magic shuttle train.
This ensures the rapid flow and operation of materials and personnel.
Then use these war fortresses to radiate in all directions, seize enough resource points, and then develop and collect supplies.
To this end, Loyi formed a deluxe engineering corps consisting of magicians, engineers and a large number of magical engineering machinery.
With the help of the speed of engineering machinery and the flexibility of magicians, and with sufficient engineering materials, their construction efficiency is beyond imagination.
Of course, with more fortresses, the military forces will inevitably be dispersed, and recruiting soldiers is also necessary.
Although life in Flower Territory has improved, it has become more difficult to recruit soldiers, so Roy turned his attention to the Habsburg Empire.
One of the sources of chaos in the Habsburg Empire at this time was the soldiers who retreated from the battlefield but had nowhere to go.
You can imagine the damage caused by these groups who are used to killing people but can't even afford to eat.
However, they are also the group of people that Luo Yi needs most.
An beginner in meditation, possessing magical powers, rich combat experience, familiarity with magical weapons and battlefields, and the basics of operating field artillery and tanks.
What they lack is loyalty, a sense of honor, and recognition of the flower collar, but these can be cultivated.
Roy asked Maruna to return to Oakland City to take charge of the work of the Oakland Magic Energy Group and establish a large veterans center.
He obtained a list of retired soldiers through the government, especially fighter and tank drivers and artillery operators, who were all targets for recruitment.
Luo Yi even offered generous conditions, allowing them to bring their families with them and settle them all in the demiplane, solving the housing problem and increasing the population.
It has to be said that this strategy is indeed effective. The Flower Territory's army has expanded very quickly and now has reached 200,000 people.
According to Luo Yi's plan, the number of troops must be expanded to at least 500,000 before they can be used.
Of course, supplies need to be mobilized, logistics need to be managed, fortresses need to be built, and soldiers need to be recruited. The war plan also needs to be put on the agenda.
The target given by the General Staff is the territory of the Abyss Tauren.
In terms of distance, this is quite far!
However, the area is rich in mineral resources and even produces several rare magical materials.
After Luo Yi approved it, he took this territory as his combat target. The Near-Orbit Magic Eye began to scan the terrain, and the Air Combat Corps conducted low-altitude reconnaissance.
A group of wanderers were also sent out to conduct close investigations and draw accurate maps and patterns of demon distribution.
In short, war is an art. The more thoroughly prepared you are, the easier it is to fight.
It is worth mentioning that Luo Yi has started the deep training mode again.
It should be said that the origins of those true spirits that were destroyed and scattered into his body were very mixed. Externally, it seemed that Luo Yi could use any rules.
But this is a typical case of being broad but not specialized. The combat capability has been improved, but it is not systematic.
What Luo Yi has to do now is to select the useful ones for in-depth research with the help of Deep Blue, and discard the useless ones.
He even planned to use one or two sacred skills as the core, and modify and optimize the other sacred skills in a selective manner.
Try to achieve the best possible results and form a sacred skill system that is unique to him.
Honestly speaking, this was an unprecedented process, and Deep Blue's role was very limited, so Luo Yi had to figure it out and try it out bit by bit on his own.
It was not until May of the 319th year of the New God Calendar that, after all preparations were completed, Loyi finally launched the first battle of "becoming the King of the Abyss" - heading straight for the Demon Territory of the Abyss Minotaur Lord.
However, what Roy did not expect was that before this battle, the missile project team headed by Marius Gray gave him a great surprise.
Also this month, the Helka plane was experiencing similar turmoil.
