Chapter 627 Extra 1: The Birth of the Devil and the New Stage
Habsburg Republic, Oakland City.
Luo Yi was in high spirits when he revisited his old place. He was wearing a brand new black gentleman's suit, and his manners were elegant and confident. He was holding a gilded cane in his hand, which looked simple and old.
This was what he dug out from the depths of the Proverbs Ring. If he remembered correctly, he bought it when he first came to this world. It was a rapier disguised as a cane.
At that time, he was still a poor man and could not afford to buy good things.
Next to him was Lilia. Even the simplest magic robe could not hide her curvy figure and her beautiful face that seemed to have walked out of a myth.
When the two of them stand together, in addition to the calmness added by time, there is also a strange youthful vitality.
They walked through the busy and clean streets, witnessed the endless stream of pedestrians, and stopped at 19 Lombard Street.
Mrs. Cassidy has passed away long ago. Although someone still cleans the place regularly, it seems extremely deserted without the crowds.
However, when I touch the furniture and furnishings, I always feel like long-lost memories are attacking me.
They then went to the Philante School of Magic, a junior college that carried too many beautiful pasts.
They stopped at the training ground and watched a group of young men practicing swordplay and disassembling guns.
They strolled along the green path, feeling the breeze and the chirping of cicadas.
They were reading in the library, and looking down, they could see ripples on the lake.
They toured the city of Auckland and relived the past, feeling that the past could not be retrieved.
However, they did not stay in Auckland for too long. Instead, they took the magic train south and saw the scenery in various places.
To be precise, it has been a long time since Luo Yi returned and he has not been in charge of anything.
He took Lilia on tours, and they had already visited more than a dozen countries, climbed over hundreds of mountains, and their footprints were all over the Old Continent.
After being busy for so long, the crisis was finally resolved. Luo Yi also wanted to relax completely and feel the beauty of life.
With his current strength, there is no place he cannot go. Even the Kingdom of God, he can go there if he wants.
Even if the indigenous gods were present, they had to open the door respectfully and allow him to visit.
However, Luo Yi was afraid of scaring them to death, so he behaved very restrainedly.
Although these indigenous gods are cowardly, courageous, useless and incompetent, they play a positive role for the entire plane.
Luo Yi didn't want to carry the safety of the entire Helka plane on his shoulders, so he had to ensure their survival.
Of course, the New World is the place of their faith, but in the Old World, Loy does not allow them to preach.
During the period when the sun god fell into deep sleep, he had the obligation to help him maintain faith.
Today, Luo Yi has a clearer understanding of his choice of cultivation path.
It should be said that deification is a way to gather people, and it is the power of thousands of believers gathered in one's body. Although it is powerful, it also carries a lot of burdens.
This leads to their biggest flaw - limited mobility.
Whether it is a clone or the original body, wanting to descend is like carrying a mountain.
On the contrary, he is not as good as Luo Yi, who has all the great power in himself, and is free and at ease, doing whatever he wants.
Of course, this does not mean that the path of gods is necessarily bad. After all, it is a form of immortality and eternity.
Therefore, within the Flower Territory, Luo Yi even launched the knowledge exchange of the Road to Deification.
As long as one has enough merits, not only can one obtain the most complete method of becoming a god, but one can even ask Luo Yi for help.
This was specially set up for people like the King of the Demon Eye. Although Luo Yi didn't care, he never thought of not allowing them to be deified.
It can even be said that if he cannot find a suitable way to achieve eternal life, he would not mind sending Lilia to the throne of god at the end of his life.
Getting back to the point, after leaving Auckland, Roy didn't feel very good. Whether it was the small towns along the way or the core cities everywhere, they all looked dilapidated and declining.
The street corners are filled with beggars with broken limbs. Most of them are retired soldiers. After becoming disabled, they cannot even find a job and have no choice but to go bankrupt.
What, you mean the military pensions of the Habsburg Republic?
That's a joke!
In order to pay off the war reparations, the ruling cabinet ultimately chose to abandon gold and silver currencies, issue paper money, and run the printing presses at full capacity, engaging in excessive and over-issuance.
Through this method, they drained private capital and wealth like a drain on the pond, causing the entire society to fall into a great economic depression.
In Auckland City, there is the Roy Fitz Magic Energy Group. This group, originally founded by Roy, has become a behemoth and the backbone of the entire city.
Moreover, most of the communication with Flower Territory, including the exchange of goods, personnel, material transportation, and wealth delivery, takes place here.
Many empires have already tacitly accepted that this is an extension of Flower Territory's power, and no one dares to act presumptuously here.
But it’s different in other places!
As a defeated nation, the Habsburg Empire was not only divided up, but also bound by various invisible shackles.
The economy and production of the entire society are on the verge of collapse, and with no money and no resources, social security is also very poor.
The empire had already completed its crackdown on the gangs, but they had already revived and various gray industries were rampant.
Even Roy and Lilia were robbed several times, and then the people disappeared without a trace.
Finally, Roy and Lilia arrived at the imperial capital of the Habsburg Republic.
This city, which can be called the pearl of the Old World, is also a representative of the development of the magic industry. At this time, the decline in its glory is already obvious.
There are many foreign concessions here, with bright lights and wine, but there is also hunger and maggots growing on the rotten food.
There is glamour, handsome men and beautiful women, singing and dancing, but there is also sin and killing in the shadows.
There is an inevitable interweaving of power and conspiracy here, as well as patriotic elements who are determined to save the nation, and daily parades.
Here, you can see the struggle for survival and also the passion!
It was also here that Roy and Lilia saw him in a beer hall.
He was short, thin, with pale skin, and was far from handsome.
But his eyes were bright, surprisingly bright, as if they contained infinite passion and fire, as if everything he did was right.
But overall, he is still a shy person. He always keeps his head slightly lowered, afraid to look people in the eye, and his hands are shaking with nervousness.
When the host invited him to the stage to give a speech, he even stood up three times at inappropriate times before standing in front of everyone.
"I used to hear people say that our country is also very prosperous..."
His voice was so intermittent and soft like a mosquito, that the host had to remind him: "Speak louder!"
"But we are in a bit of trouble now, we..."
He raised his voice, but in the whole tavern, some people were eating and drinking, while others were talking loudly.
No one listened to his speech.
At this moment, he felt a surge of anger echoing in his chest, and suddenly said loudly: "Is anyone listening?"
"Hasn't anyone ever thought that we might perish?"
"Don't you all care?"
"Our greatest enemies are among us, the outsiders, the invaders, who come here to take away our livelihoods.
They rob us of our food, leave our children hungry, and our wives cold."
When he clenched his fists and waved his arms vigorously, the entire beer hall finally fell silent. Everyone looked at him and listened attentively.
And his roar resounded even louder in everyone's ears: "Do you know how much a piece of bread costs in the market?"
"Five hundred thousand marks!"
"Five hundred thousand marks! That's too much money to even fit in a wheelbarrow!"
"Now is not the time to remain silent, we must do something, we must revolutionize!"
At this moment, Luo Yi looked at him, this passionate man, and his keen perception seemed to see through the arrangement of fate.
At this moment, he seemed to be traveling upstream and downstream along the long river of time and saw many scenes.
A young man was kicked out of the studio and his tutors rejected his application for admission for the second time.
He walked on the road in a daze, with only a few copper tyres in his hand, which was not enough to eat.
A soldier ran wildly on the battlefield. The hail of bullets could not stop him from charging. He was the only one left alive in the team of 600 people.
On his chest, he wore a noble Iron Cross medal.
A retired soldier walked dazedly on the street, his eyes, which had not yet fully recovered, were red, but this did not hinder his firm steps.
In a beer hall, he finished his speech with sweat on his face, and the crowded audience burst into thunderous applause.
In a court, he was about to be sent to the gallows, but he made another impassioned speech.
"Those who claim to be our leaders, who ended the war and signed the Treaty of Lutetia, are committing treason!"
"I just want to take back what we once lost!"
"If I am guilty, it is of defending the rights of the Habsburg people."
In a small open space in a prison, he roared loudly: "We need a visionary leader, someone who has enough courage."
"He can turn his enemies into ashes."
"This man has come, he has come, and he will lead the people to victory!"
In a flag-draped office, he thundered a proclamation: "From this moment on, all actions are my responsibility."
"If I fail, I'm willing to step down!"
"But I won't fail!"
"This operation can only have two outcomes: either the enemy destroys us, or we destroy the enemy."
"If something bad happens to me, wrap my body in the national flag and wish me victory!"
In a magnificent hall, he walked onto the balcony wearing a neat gentleman's suit.
Facing tens of thousands of people, he loudly declared: "I will enter heaven with a smile!
I will meet the glorious ancestors of the Habsburgs, and I can walk before His Majesty King Habsburg I with my head held high.
I can proudly say to him: I, your descendant, have not brought shame upon you. I shed my last drop of blood for the great Habsburgs!"
"We are not fighting for slavery! We are fighting for freedom! We are not machines, not beasts of burden, we are human beings!
It's the Habsburgs who never surrendered!"
Bang bang bang!
The thunderous applause woke Luo Yi up. He narrowed his eyes slightly, looked deeply at the thin man, and finally understood what the Sun God meant.
That is the choice of fate!
He is a man whose fate is intertwined with that of thousands of people and who is destined to change the times.
Finally, when the speech was over and most people had left, Lilia turned around and asked, "Luo Yi, do you think he is special?"
"His speech seemed to have a magical power that drew me in, but I didn't sense any fluctuations of charm spells."
Luo Yi nodded slowly and said, "How could it not be special? It carries the wrath of tens of millions of Habsburgs."
Lilia's eyes widened. "You mean, he'll become a leader and drag the Habsburg Republic into the quagmire?"
"It's also possible that he fell into the abyss!"
Roy rubbed his face and said helplessly, "Even without the Netherese stirring up trouble and the archmages plotting, people are always greedy."
“Although the Habs suffered heavy losses, they have excellent fundamentals.
A mature and complete industrial system, with technological accumulation covering most industries, a large workforce, and the largest educated population.
"So, what will happen if the victorious nations are forced to push their people too far, to the point where they can't even afford bread?"
Lilia pursed her lips and uttered two words: "War!"
Luo Yi nodded: "When conflicts cannot be reconciled, the only option is war!"
Lilia asked, "No matter what, could it be more tragic than the world war planned by the great arcanists?"
“…”
Seeing Luo Yi's embarrassed expression, Lilia was stunned: "No way? No way?
Luo Yi, don't scare me!"
Luo Yi said helplessly: "My eyes, looking through the long river of time, have only seen the tip of the iceberg..."
“It’s like hell on earth!”
"Then do you want to intervene? With the size and strength of the Flower Territory, unifying the entire Old Continent wouldn't be difficult!"
Luo Yi was silent for a moment, and finally shook his head slowly and said, "Forget it!
The choice of fate is actually the emergency response of the universal consciousness of the plane. It may be cruel, but we must learn to respect the fate of others."
"Besides, my stage is no longer in the Helka plane."
As he spoke, an invisible wave spread out, and Ferro, the King of the Demon Eye, walked out from the void.
He smiled awkwardly at Lilia and said, "Sorry to interrupt your vacation."
Luo Yi narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "What's so important that you need to make this trip in person?"
The King of Demonic Eyes spoke: "It's a letter for help from the Dark Maiden Eilistraee.
You said you had a good relationship with Him and had even signed an alliance, so when I heard the news, I hurried over."
"Did you say what it was specifically?"
"It was Spider Queen Rose who found her kingdom!"
"Spider Queen Rose, we can't just sit back and watch."
Luo Yi turned his head to look at Lilia, his smile a little awkward: "Um..."
Lilia waved her hand and said, "Alright, alright, you've been resting for so long, I know you're getting tired of it.
However, you still have to remember to be safe when you're out there! "
“Don’t worry, there are many people in the multiverse who want to kill me.
But there are not many people who can kill me!"
As they spoke, layers of space folded and appeared, and as the waves spread outward, the figures of the three people had disappeared.
…
A certain level of the Abyss,
A fierce battle is already underway in Nidavellir, the kingdom of the dark girl Eilistraee.
The foggy path surrounding the kingdom of God has been broken.
A corner of the protective barrier that served as a defense was broken, and it was contaminated by evil divine power, propping up a huge door.
In the void, the bonfire ignited by the evil divine power turned into a beacon. In the light that descended from the sky, countless petitioners and divine servants rushed in, densely packed and countless.
With a simple scan, you can find wax melters, soul-eating spiders, abyss ants, shapeshifting spiders, demon hunter spiders, thorn spirits, scorpion spiders, dark weavers, deep dragons, spider elves, fallen and corrupted thorn elves, iters, Grelock scorpions, animated webs, whisker-legged spiders, quasais, prey hounds, shadow dragons, sun-avoiding spiders and many more.
They were like the most precise killing machines, flooding the grasslands and rivers of Nidavellir, leaving only corpses wherever they passed.
Even the reincarnation pond is already overwhelmed.
This forced the dark girl to take action herself.
He transformed into a girl and floated in the sky, organizing his own army of petitioners to resist.
From time to time, when He raised His hands, a terrifying fluctuation of divine power would transform into the power to change the world.
The earth first tore a huge hole, swallowing countless petitioners, and then closed up directly.
Hail fell from the sky, turning into sharp arrows and piercing the enemy with holes.
A strong wind blew by, like a sharp sword, tearing apart all enemies.
There was also fire falling from the sky, burning everything in sight to ashes.
Gods are almost invincible in their own kingdoms, because they can use divine power and rules to easily change the world.
Even if the incarnation of a powerful god came, it might not be able to gain any benefit.
The only problem is that it consumes a lot of energy, and over time, the reserves of divine power will become stretched.
At this time, the Spider Queen Rose transformed into a giant spider, floating above Nidavellir. The huge spider web covered the void, staring at the dark girl as if she were looking at an insect.
Even though they are mother and daughter, over the long years, they have become more enemies than enemies, and are sworn enemies who will never stop fighting!
At this time, Spider Queen Rose was relying on the consumption of the Legion of Prayers, preparing to exhaust the Dark Girl to death.
At this moment, He screamed: "Eilistraee, Eilistraee, this is your end!"
"Aren't you on good terms with those kind gods? Why don't they come to save you?"
"Did all the letters we sent out fall into oblivion?"
"I've told you long ago that these so-called good gods are a bunch of cowards, wimps, and hypocrites. Don't you believe it?"
"Now, do you see it?"
"Be good, be good and let me devour the godhead, so that my shadow magic web can be complete!"
The Spider Queen's piercing voice carried a tangible spiritual toll, annihilating the souls of countless weak petitioners and turning them into ashes.
At this moment, the dark girl Iristrae bit her lip and said nothing.
But his pale face, trembling body and shaky figure said it all.
It was at this moment that a magical light descended from the sky and landed in His hands.
After only three or two breaths, His eyes sparkled with joy.
He raised his hand and waved it, mobilizing divine power to tear apart the void, revealing a huge portal.
And a floating city just squeezed out from the portal.
Of course it is not the Silver Top, which is too large and not suitable for long-distance transmission, but the Lion Floating City that has undergone a complete transformation and upgrade.
When dozens of missiles took off, drew graceful arcs, and fell, they created a series of portals in the shock waves.
The roar of the King of Land War suppressed the noise, rushed out of the portal, and galloped across the wilderness.
With the roar of artillery fire and the coordination of infantry and tanks, they advanced forcefully to clear out the Spider Queen's army of petitioners.
Of course, they alone are definitely not enough.
Therefore, one after another, the sixth-generation aerospace fighters cut through the sky and rushed into the battlefield in the turbulent air waves.
Facing the strong men in the Spider Queen Rose's camp, hundreds of mecha warriors rushed forward with field cannons and chainsaw swords.
As for Loy, he gave the dark girl a reassuring smile and rode the red dragon Virgil into the sky.
Outside the plane, facing the Spider Queen Rose, he said calmly, "We meet again!"
"Last time you blocked my path and caused me trouble, this time we can put an end to it all at once."
The next second, a shocking sword light, carrying flames all over the sky, swept across the void.
Today, the minor conflicts within the plane are no longer worthy of his attention.
This multiverse is the stage for Luo Yi to give full play to his talents.
