High Above

Aina left the dais.

The emperor slowly sat on his throne and stared at the light pillar supporting the heaven and earth in the imperial capital.

【His Majesty】

A hazy figure dimly lit up, and Dean Moser's voice sounded: [Why do you value that young prophet so much? 】

[Isn’t the dream master in Liuyao City also a prophet? There are already prophets in our publicity plan. Isn’t it a bit confusing to have another prophet? 】

There was a hint of doubt in Moze's tone. He was not questioning the emperor's choice, he just wanted to know some details from his majesty.

"Dream Master Saku...he is indeed a prophet."

With one hand supporting his chin, the emperor's tone was a little confused, as if he was thinking about something while explaining lightly: "But he can only foresee it through various situations in dreams, most of which are guesses, and he can only foresee 'threats'. "

"The threat from the place where he dreamed, the threat from the place where he himself is - although the accuracy rate is extremely high, it is often equivalent to correct nonsense."

"For example, what is the threat to the empire? Do you need a prophet to predict it? Everyone knows who the threat is..."

At this point, the emperor sighed: "But on the other hand, this prophecy is very useful... Thorin's plan, Bai Ji's desire, and the upcoming huge war in the future all allow us to predict it in advance."

"It's just that these are too big. Predicting threats doesn't mean anything. If we solve the threats in advance, things will become meaningless. People don't understand this."

"What we need is not a threat, but a crisis."

[Your Majesty, you mean...]

Moze came to some understanding, and he looked thoughtfully in the direction of Canaan Moore: [You mean, the new head of the Yinfeng family is a crisis prophet...]

"Yes. Aina's description, as well as the information collected from all parties, all prove this. I dare say that maintaining the group of people in the party relies on Ian Silverfeng's ability to determine the timing of action."

The emperor said calmly, with an unquenchable light flowing in his golden eyes: "After all, the elves' prophetic energy comes from strange objects. Strange objects have no camp, and their internal fighting cannot rely on this thing to determine the future."

【Understood】

The dean now understood what his majesty meant, and he said humbly: [Should we wait for a prophecy about the crisis, and then spread it to publicize that we will overcome the crisis to unite the people's hearts? 】

"No."

The emperor said, he closed his eyes: "It is a prophecy of crisis."

"Then tell everyone we're going to lose."

Closing his eyes tightly, Earthkeeper Axel said: "No matter whether our Silver Peak Prophet predicts victory or defeat, we will only propagate that we will lose."

"There was only a glimmer of hope, only one possibility to get through that crisis... We had to go beyond prophecies, beyond the tiniest of possibilities, to win."

"Moze. Do you understand?" The emperor opened his eyes slightly, and the director of the Lingzhi Academy could only see a bright light, like flowing gold: "Promote it well and treat our little prophet well."

"Then tell him the Empire doesn't want the truth."

"An empire only needs crisis."

【Obide】

Dean Moser retreated.

soon.

Another woman's shadow appeared next to the throne.

【Father】

When he opened his mouth, he already knew who it was.

The eldest princess, Alegria Setar, sat on her knees next to the throne, gently holding her father's hand, almost coquettishly saying: [I have completed all the tasks you gave me... Institute of Truth The experiment has produced decisive results, and the transformation of the central shield generator in the imperial capital can begin soon...]

"Yes. Well done." The emperor raised his hand and touched his daughter's golden-red hair. He sighed: "Among the many children, you make me worry the most... But this is not a good thing. I'll do it next time. Learn from your big brother and call my name if you need anything."

[I can solve everything and will not let my father worry about me]

The eldest princess was a little dissatisfied, but soon she continued her report: [The Lieshan area asked for support, and I agreed, but I think a group of craftsmen resources can be added. The experiment of the 'Pure White Project' can be initially carried out in Expand there】

[The leader of Lieshan District, ‘Zhen Yan’ Ibeya (formerly known as Nightmare Yan), originally did not want us to interfere too much, but due to the lack of resources, he also relented]

"Well, I believe you, just do it."

It’s not that he thinks it’s dispensable, Axel does believe in his children.

After hesitating for a while, he continued: "Leia... it's time for you to find a husband or a concubine. Our Setar royal family doesn't have many people. Your eldest brother, second brother, and younger sister are all here." They all already have children, and technology has long supported same-sex births, so you don’t need to..."

[Father, there is no need to say more] The eldest princess slowly but firmly refused: [You know my answer]

"……sorry."

The emperor, who is clearly the lord of a country and extremely majestic in the eyes of outsiders, apologized twice in a short period of time.

Axel opened his eyes, his gaze penetrated the layers of steel, earth, and stone, and stared at the emperor's eldest grandson, Aina, who was gradually walking towards the middle city on the solitary mountain. He sighed: "Whether it's you, Mikael, or even Aina...are all my failed and successful experiments."

【This is exactly what I want...】

"You should have regretted it, or forgotten it, or even laughed it off in the future. Everyone will have that thought, maybe just for a short moment, as a childhood joke."

Axel interrupted Alegria and said lightly: "I have no regrets, because this is what I want to do...my way, my way..."

"But sorry is something else."

[What about Isengard? My little sister’s child...]

"He is the final key. We will wait until the technology from the Ministry of Truth is completely successful."

Axel's figure slowly dissipated, transformed into light, and merged into the light pillar of the imperial capital not far away: "As for now, let him find his own direction."

"I believe that the teacher's disciples will guide him in the right direction."

…

"Sure enough, if you rely on your own research and development or grab it, God knows how slow it will be!"

In the Jin Deng family mansion, Ian stared at the crimson crystal in his hand, feeling quite emotional in his heart: "Let me tell you why my development speed is getting faster and faster in various paths - because the later paths I take, the faster I develop. The more people you know, the more help you can get.”

"It's not feasible to farm in Nanling just by yourself. Some technologies require a very long time to accumulate. It may only be the beginning in more than ten years. But with the support of others, it can be done in one or two years." Enter practicality.”

"It's like this source of energy computing chip..."

The form of the Sephiroth computing chip handed over by Yafoda looks very similar to the soul core of Feiyan Land's Constructing Knight. In other words, the Constructing Knight's soul crystal is originally modeled after the Sefirot computing chip. They also have it there. A similar relic of a pre-epochal computing center.

Ian is very satisfied. This means that the technology of Xiahui’s ‘Dead Lord’ series will usher in a leap forward.

Apart from anything else, as long as we understand the commonality between the echo and the dead king's soul, then as long as we maintain such a computing chip, the souls of all the people in the entire territory will have a home... a 'Hades' that can last for at least a thousand years. !

Just as Ian thought at the beginning, on the continent of Terra, I am afraid that a complete set of flying plans have been put together, even a complete set of plans to deal with various doomsdays, and even a complete set of plans to sublimate the revolution.

However, due to disputes and conflicts between countries, these technologies have not been integrated.

If you don't care about time, these technologies will gradually spread within a hundred years and after several world wars, and as the victors of the war unify the entire continent, they will be completely integrated, changing the entire Ascendant society into a completely new look.

This is the speed and steps of normal progress in history.

But Ian didn't have the time or patience - he wanted to speed up.

Accelerate the historical process and accelerate technological development.

He wants to use his presence to gather the most critical technology and support from all parties, and then...conquer the entire Terra, collect all the key elements for victory, and then complete his ultimate goal!

In this process, he must be perfect, get help from most people, and defeat all enemies.

"I have to tell Albert the good news when I get back...and."

Raising his head and looking towards the side of the corridor of Jin Deng's house, Ian asked curiously: "Ethan, what are you doing there? Do you want to see me if you need anything?"

"Ian..."

The figure of a blond boy walked out of the shadows. He looked at Ian with a little hesitation on his face: "I heard everything just now."

"Did you hear the conversation between me and Japhetah? I know."

Ian had known about this for a long time, but what he and Yafoda said were not very sensitive to begin with. He had already told Ison about the really sensitive things, so the young man was a little confused as to why Isengard would Hesitation: “What’s the big deal?”

"Ian."

Taking a deep breath, Isengard asked Ian seriously: "You said you want to change the world."

"You said you want to be the enemy of the world."

"Oh. This."

After hearing this, Ian slowly put away his smile. He thought for a while and nodded: "I have indeed never told you this, but don't worry too much about the continent's order, the source of hatred, and the despicability and viciousness in the blood. It’s all exaggerated stuff.”

"In the end, what I want to do is just use technology to change some original morals and customs, and make the whole world run more smoothly. To you, it's nothing. I don't really want to fight against the whole world. It will not cause the whole world to surround me and involve..."

"No. I don't care about the world's siege and suppression, and I don't care about implicating me."

Isengard interrupted Ian and said seriously: "But how you want to change the world is very important to me."

"The picture of the future you mentioned attracted Speaker Yafoda, and the thoughts that moved him also moved my heart."

"I just don't understand why, Ian, you didn't tell me this in the past... Is it because I'm not strong enough? Or do I not meet your requirements..."

"No."

Raising his hand, Ian looked serious.

He raised his hand to interrupt Isengard's words, and said slowly: "If you think about it carefully, it is indeed my fault. I didn't seem to have much chance in the past to seriously tell you about my arcane path and my views on it from beginning to end. The world’s dissatisfaction and future ideas…”

"Yeah. Indeed, I recognized you as my friend too naturally, forgetting that even friends need to share these opinions."

"but……"

Having said this, Ian's eyes were deep. He looked at the blond boy in front of him and said calmly: "In that case, you really can't get away."

"In front of this cause, your bloodline, the plan behind the bloodline, the Ellen family or the royal family dispute are just trivial details... Do you really plan to know?"

"if not?"

Ian's words were very serious, but Isengard was about to laugh out loud: "I accompanied you to fight the Lord of the Labyrinth with my life, to hide from my grandfather's beam of light, and you asked me if I planned to know - if I didn't How can you do this with such determination!”

"You even told Japhetah and you haven't told me yet!" he accused sharply.

"I did forget this..."

With a haha, Ian's eyes wandered. He walked forward with a hearty smile, pressed Isengard's shoulder and said: "But to be honest, this was also a concern of mine in the past. It was not because of your strength, but because of something. If I tell you everything, the world in your eyes will be completely different in the future.”

"You are a noble, born noble, but you don't understand many things... If you really want to participate in my development plan, then you will take more risks and lose more in the future."

Ian paused, and then said: "Ethan, I may be worried that you are too young, so I have never discussed these topics with you. As you can hear, my future enemies are not just nobles, not just It’s just one or two countries, but it’s also the essence of human nature, the continent’s order, social morality… it’s the entire world of Terra.”

"Are you really sure?"

"of course."

Isengard looked at Ian, who was younger than him. He didn't know whether it was anger or other emotions, but he answered the question seriously: "Don't really think that I am ignorant... I am a genius in alchemy, a person who accepts I am a nobleman with a royal education, and I am well-read. Indeed, I know almost nothing about things at the bottom, and I am not as good as you in other aspects, but I can definitely help you a lot."

"But only if you let me know what you plan to do, can I help you do more things."

"good."

Ian smiled, but said almost solemnly: "In that case, let's learn more about the things at the bottom."

"Ethan, go and see this vast world, see how the sublimated people are separated from ordinary people on this land, and what do you think about this?"

"Ethan, look more and see how distorted the technology and society of this world are, and see what mistakes this civilization, which was built on the ruins of pre-era civilization, built its prosperity on, you will It’s so incredible to know all of this.”

"Then you will understand what it means to be 'the enemy of the world'."

"When you find the answer in your mind, tell me what you think."

Slowly raising his head, Ian looked at the pitch black sky.

He said to Isengard, who had already clenched his fists: "At that time, I will tell you the real secret of this world, the biggest enemy of all living things."

"At that time, we were true 'comrades in arms.'"

"I will." Isengard said with unprecedented solemnity: "I will understand you."

"Yes." The prophet said softly, "I hope so too."

“Wish that could be the case for everyone.”

I'll be back to Xiahui soon!
