Chapter 219: Opening up the Crystal Wall System! Close the door and beat the dog!
The Weird Kingdom has never been as lively as it is now in nearly a thousand years.
Andre covered his half-orc features with a hood, walking on the bustling streets of Purgatory City. Not far ahead was the "Shura" Arena, and from a distance he could see the Yugroth guards at the door. The arena run by the evil demons was more bloody and cruel than the one in Abyss City, because some of the old family were often deployed to attract the audience. Andre came here to recruit his former companions. He now served in the Pioneer Regiment of the Mechanical Heart, and urgently needed some reliable people to form his own special operations team.
Only those who have truly integrated into the Mechanical Heart know how terrible the war potential hidden in this demiplane is. So far, that Excellency has only been trying out his skills on a small scale and does not seem to intend to reveal all his cards.
Even the recent operation was carried out in secret and the outside world was completely unaware of it.
But Andre saw with his own eyes that the Excellency cut off a peak of several thousand meters high in the Screaming Islands with a wave of his hand, and then reversed its gravity, turning it into a huge island suspended in the air. Now the technical consultants of the Mechanical Heart are discussing how to send this floating island to low-Earth orbit. There are no technical problems, but they lack some key materials, so this plan has not been implemented yet.
Yesterday, the Martyrs Legion entered the elemental plane, but Andre was not very clear about its specific mission.
The Pioneers Chapter mainly operates in the material plane of the Weird Kingdom, and most operations in other planes are handled by the Martyrs Chapter.
In fact, Andre has always had a doubt.
"That means the Mechanical Heart demiplane has only just risen. Where did so many high-level technical consultants come from?"
"The demon wizard is easy to deal with. After all, that gentleman is the successor of Lord Amon and has many potential followers in Abyss City."
"But what about alchemists from other paths?"
"Are there people from the Tower of Knowledge?"
"There is even the Land of the Dead. Those scholars from the spirit plane? Where did they come from? Why did they suddenly join the Mechanical Heart demiplane?"
Andre also had a bold guess in his mind, that is, the gentleman might have the terrifying ability to control people's hearts.
He inherently possesses the power of spiritual paths.
All along, there has been a steady stream of new members joining the Mechanical Heart demiplane. Some of them were once out of control, such as Yvon Tanner, the god of the Holy Terra Church, and some are demon wizards from the Abyss City. They were once followers of Amon, and some are people who have never met or even heard of, such as lone adventurers, high-level wizards from the real kingdom, wanderers from the Shadow Path, lone rangers who are unwilling to be bound, and even former enemies, etc.
As far as Andre knew, Doctor Monster had once been an enemy, and then had become that Excellency's most loyal follower.
Through some channel unknown to him, that Excellency has been "recruiting" new members.
"You can't dwell on that."
Andre shook his head and threw away the thoughts in his mind. There were many members of the Holy Terra Chapter whose origins were unknown, but they were all middle and high-level transcendents without exception, and they were absolutely loyal to the Mechanical Heart and were ready to die when performing their missions.
To be honest, he was a little scared, even terrified.
Sometimes when he thought of that Excellency, he couldn't help but be "loyal". After all, the other party had changed a lot, and even the rise of the Mechanical Heart was no less than a miracle.
"It's normal for a demigod to have followers."
“It doesn’t matter who the followers are or where they come from, it’s normal.”
"The Weird Country has become like this."
"Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures!"
"This is normal."
Andre shook his head and strengthened his belief that everything was for a better future.
He sensed the existence of the 'imprint of thought'.
In other words, he has touched the threshold of the legendary realm, because only by touching the legendary existence can one feel a trace of the power of thought imprints. But all along, he has not encountered any bad things. On the contrary, the Mechanical Heart has been training them with all his strength. By the time he realized it, they had already been deeply bound to the Mechanical Heart demiplane.
Besides, the Dark Walker is no pushover. If he betrays the Mechanical Heart for no reason, he will be hunted down by the high-level assassins of the Shadow Path.
Over time.
Some of the first batch of people who were planted with the thought imprint by Xiao En have been promoted to high-level. A small number of them have gradually become aware of the original thought imprint due to the rapid improvement of their strength, but the thought imprint has been planted for some time. Regardless of the original reason for joining the Mechanical Heart Demiplane, they have already integrated into it and become part of this huge and efficient machine.
The same thing happened with Andre.
He would never be willing to give up his current status and become a helpless gladiator or adventurer again. Besides, all this was just his guess. The power of the spiritual path was strange and unpredictable. Who could really get rid of it? That Excellency had invested huge resources in them.
Shura Arena.
Most of the extraordinary people who transformed into orc templates did not do well, because although this racial template had the bonus of strength and physique, its temper and personality would also become irritable and angry. Andre also learned to control his rage after countless fights in the arena.
Yugoloth.
These evil demons like to recruit thugs with strong limbs and simple minds. They have a large number of caravans in many planes, running various businesses, and also herding soul worms.
Just as Andre was about to enter the arena, there was suddenly a commotion in the Chamber of Commerce in front.
That's the auction house.
Only a few of the many Witch King cities have auction houses, and most of them are run by demons in the neutral evil camp. Demons like to rob, devils like to cheat, and demons are a little more disciplined. Driven by curiosity, Andre walked towards the auction house, and soon he saw a man in black clothes and a wide cloak. The moment he saw the other party, even this experienced gladiator couldn't help but change his face slightly, because the other party had a pair of strange double pupils, cold eyes, cold facial features, two black swords behind his back, a dagger at his waist, and strange potions under his cloak.
Legendary strongman!
And he's dressed as a demon hunter!
As far as Andre knew, demon hunters rarely left the real world. This was Purgatory City, which was not within their range of activities.
"Could it be a visitor from another world?!"
Andre's expression was shocked, and he walked forward involuntarily. Soon he heard the content of the dispute. The other party seemed to want to sell a kind of knowledge from another world called "magic potion formula", but his asking price was too high. The demons did not want to pay a high price for such a thing with uncertain effects.
So the demon hunter wanted to leave, but the evil demons were unwilling to do so and wanted him to show them the so-called potion formula first.
It really is a visitor from another world.
——Shang [Leader of the Crow's Nest] [High-level Legend] [Visitor from Another World] (CR 25+)? !
The other person had a face that was close to that of an oriental person. Andre saw a strange emblem on his body, which looked like a crescent moon.
"In trouble?"
Seeing that a conflict was about to break out, Andre hurried forward to stop the demon's thugs, glanced at the tall man behind him, and whispered, "Friends from the Crow's Nest?"
Crow's Nest?
Hearing Andre's words, the tall man was surprised, his eyes suddenly became much friendlier, and he nodded slightly and said, "They want to force the sale."
Upon hearing this, Andre immediately displayed the emblem of the Holy Terra Church.
The demons on the opposite side immediately became fearful after seeing the emblem of the Holy Terra Church. In recent years, the Holy Terra Church has grown at an astonishing rate. Maybe in their own eyes, they are a normal church, but in the eyes of the outside world, even in the eyes of the demons, they are also a powerful cult, because people often join the Holy Terra Church inexplicably.
The dispute was thus resolved, and in the many Witch King Cities, almost no one was willing to have a head-on conflict with the Holy Terra Church.
After all, there is a powerful demigod behind the church, as well as the unfathomable will of Terra.
Andre motioned for the other party to follow him. After walking into the alley around the corner, he turned around to indicate that he had no ill intentions and said, "If you want to sell it at a high price, it's best to go to the Chamber of Commerce of Mechanical Heart."
"They are willing to pay a high price to acquire all knowledge of the other world."
The demon hunter seemed to be thinking about what he said.
Andre looked at the other person and asked tentatively: "Are you from the Crescent Moon Plane?"
The other nodded and said, "How do you know about Crow's Nest?"
Andre explained: "In the real country of Dagon, the heritage of the demon hunters originated from the Crow's Nest in another world. They often carry alchemical potions with them, which are similar to the ones you have."
There is actually a legacy of Crow's Nest here?
The demon hunter looked surprised, then he said thoughtfully: "Can you take me to see it?"
The plane where the Crescent Moon World is located is because of the ancient evil - the Death Star. Because of its erosion of laws, all extraordinary paths have been distorted, so the magic potion promotion system has appeared. However, the laws there are not as distorted as those in the Faraway Kingdom. Although the Death Star is a planetary-level ancient hatred, it was stopped before it could fully transform.
But the weird kingdom is different. It is the old nest. The way of promotion for the extraordinary people is more cruel. They directly digest the extraordinary relics of monsters.
Andre asked tentatively: "Those potion formulas?"
"Can you show it to me?"
The other party hesitated for a moment, took out a strange piece of parchment, and said calmly: "I'm not sure if there is no corresponding potion material in this world."
"But as long as the material effect is the same, other rare items can be used as substitutes."
"I have another companion."
"He should be back soon."
After saying that, a mysterious mark appeared on the opponent's arm, and a unique seal from another world lit up. Soon, a light of teleportation spell emerged, and a wizard wearing a unique five-ring emblem appeared in front of them.
wizard?!
Andre had a shocked expression, it was the first time he saw a visitor from another world who was a promoted wizard, rather than a mage.
This is a dark wizard.
In the country where the Crescent Moon is located, black wizards are close to the wizard path of the grotesque country, while white wizards are close to the wizard path of other crystal wall systems.
He clearly had the same polluted aura as the ones in the weird kingdom, but not as serious as the extraordinary people here. There was also a faint smell of evil on him. It was said that in the world of the Crescent Moon Plane, the wizards there also "ate evil things".
This kind of promotion is forced.
"Aboriginals?" the dark wizard asked in surprise.
This is a legendary wizard. Unlike other extraordinary people, he actually has a very strong physical fitness, which is a transformation caused by the fusion of the power of ancient evil things. However, after the destruction of the Death Star, the traditional wizard path has been transformed into the mage path, which is safer.
Andre realized that this was not something he could handle.
Soon, he notified the Mechanical Heart Chamber of Commerce through the Mind Treasure. About ten minutes later, an assassin wearing a ghost mask walked out from the shadows.
Dark walker.
The ghost-faced assassin stared at the alien in front of him and said in a deep voice, "An alien from the Crescent Moon?"
The witcher nodded slightly, surprised that they all knew him.
The ghost-faced assassin said slowly: "Someone from the top of Mechanical Heart has seen Master Xu!"
Master Xu?
Shang's expression became more and more shocked. He murmured, "Master Xu has also been here?"
The ghost-faced assassin nodded and said, "Come with me."
"I'll take you to the Mechanical Heart."
"How did you get into the weird country?"
The dark wizard replied, "There was an unexpected deviation in the transmission. We were teleported here when we were strangling the descendants of the ancient evil creatures on the Garo Continent."
The ghost-faced assassin nodded slightly. He seemed to have known for a long time that the crystal wall system where the other party came from was also eroded by many ancient evil things.
He said to Andre: "Leave this to me."
"Go and do your own task."
During this period, more and more alien visitors descended on the weird kingdom, as if countless portals suddenly appeared to lead to distant kingdoms. Especially those kingdoms that were originally eroded by ancient evil creatures were more likely to connect to the spatial laws here.
It's like there is a kind of gravity.
The spatial isolation between the Faraway Kingdom and other crystal wall systems seems to have been broken by some force. In the entire multiverse, the only existence that can open so many paths and laws is the lady in the City of Sigil.
………………
at the same time.
At the border of the Terra galaxy.
An ancient time dragon broke through the laws of space and descended into a distant country. On the broad back of the dragon, a careless man sat on the dragon's back and looked into the distant void.
“What are you going to do?” At that time, the incarnation of the guardian of time and space seemed a little blurry, and his figure looked like a garbled reflection.
In the void, the laws of death converge.
A lonely, thin figure broke through the void and descended upon the Terra Galaxy. He looked at the Ancient Time Dragon indifferently and said calmly, "Let the Old One in."
"Then close the door and beat the dog!"
The Guardian of Time and Space had a serious expression when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "Have you been to the Chaos King's Court?"
The lonely figure nodded slightly and said calmly, "I've been there."
"Azathoth is still asleep."
"The Outer Gods are also afraid of His awakening."
At that time, the Guardian of Space and Time said, "Then you should know that we cannot completely eliminate the threat of the Far Country. As long as Azathoth exists, the Old Ones here will continue to be born."
"You can kill countless Old Ones, but you can't kill the entire Distant Universe."
The Lord of Death chuckled and said, "It may not be impossible."
"but."
"There are better ways to deal with this."
The Lord of Death has always behaved extremely radically. Even the ancient time dragons in the center of time and space could not do anything to him. But this time, he actually took the initiative to propose a solution, which undoubtedly shocked the guardian of time and space in front of him.
The Lord of Death said calmly: "I know you have cultivated a person on this planet."
"He has the law of time in him."
"Now, as long as we cooperate, you will be responsible for changing time, and I will be responsible for changing space."
“There may not be a way to solve the problem once and for all.”
The space-time guardian asked in confusion: "What do you want to do?"
The Lord of Death said calmly, "The Lady of Pain is here too."
"It's just that you can't find her."
"She controls the door to the multiverse and possesses the power of time and space. It is because of her attention that so many portals to distant countries have appeared."
The Lady of Pain does not exist because of Sigil, but Sigil exists because of the Lady of Pain.
Sigil cannot trap Lady Pain; what traps her is the spatial laws of the multiverse.
There must be a being who manages the portals to the multiverse.
The Ancient Time Dragon at the side seemed to have thought of something. It peered into the long river of time and said in shock: "You want to open up a new crystal wall system?!"
God above all gods.
Such an existence can re-refine the earth, water, wind and fire and recreate the crystal wall universe. If He is determined to do so, no one can stop Him, because the power of the Pantheon far exceeds that of other forces.
"Do not."
The Lord of Death slowly shook his head and said, "The power consumed in reopening the Crystal Wall Universe is too huge."
"I must guard against the coming of those old pillars."
The Guardian of Time and Space had a serious expression on his face and said slowly, "So what are you planning to do?"
The Lord of Death said calmly: "I want to cut this universe apart."
"Use the laws of time and space to remove the entire Terra Galaxy from the map of the distant universe!"
"Re-evolve it into a crystal wall system."
"As a buffer zone between the distant universe and the multiverse."
Transform the 'distant universe branch - Terra Galaxy' into the 'multiverse component - Terra Crystal Wall System'.
The space-time guardian immediately understood what the other party meant and murmured, "Close the door and beat the dog?!"
"You plan to transform this galaxy into a crystal wall kingdom?"
"Terra Tianyu?!"
"With the power of your incarnation, how can you set up a crystal wall barrier covering the entire Terra galaxy?"
Use a bubble, or crystal wall barrier, to wrap up the entire Terra galaxy.
If successful.
The Terra Galaxy does not belong to the distant universe, but to an independent crystal wall system.
The climax of the campaign was thus established.
All the Old Ones that have descended upon the Terra Galaxy have been isolated within the crystal wall barrier. If those pillars of the Old Ones want to descend, they must first break through the crystal wall barrier. With the strength of the indigenous people, it is possible for them to rely on themselves to defeat the many Old Ones entrenched here.
Once the crystal wall barrier is formed, the Pantheon can place the battlefield outside the entire Terra galaxy.
It would not be possible for a true god with great power to take action and destroy the entire planet, causing endless killings. Moreover, repairing a damaged planet is not an easy task. Only an ancient god of the level of the Oak Father can do it.
The Lord of Death said calmly: "This is not something that your Space-Time Central Authority should be concerned about."
"The Pantheon will isolate the spatial laws of this crystal wall system."
"You are only responsible for covering up all timelines."
At that time, the Guardian of Space and Time said solemnly, "You want your real body to descend into the distant universe?"
"You made a deal with the Lady of Pain?"
"Is your Excellency crazy?"
"If your real body comes, it may directly alarm the sleeping pillars of the past. The distant universe cannot accommodate more gods!"
Upon hearing this, the Lord of Death said calmly: “But Terra Tianyu can.”
"A newborn crystal wall universe."
"It should be big enough to accommodate my real body!"
"I have already promised you not to reshape the earth, water, wind and fire, and don't go too far with the Space-Time Hub!"
The pressure of death tears the void apart.
At this moment, it seemed as if the entire universe was caught in entropy. Such a terrifying existence, even the Ancient Time Dragon had only felt it when facing the end of time in the long river of time, but that one was the Ancient Hatred that was completely out of control, while the one before him was the fully-formed and promoted God Above God.
The Ancient Time Dragon (CR 91) signaled the Space-Time Guardian to step aside and communicated with him telepathically: "It's worth a try."
"The Kingdom's Sky Crystal Wall is covered with countless rune chains."
"He is confident that he can make a move. He may be able to directly block the entire galaxy with runes like the Kingdom Tianyu did."
Cut out a galaxy from the entire distant universe.
Even with the extraordinary power of [changing space] possessed by the God above Gods, it is not easy to do. After all, it is to shatter the void and create a crystal wall barrier with a diameter of one billion kilometers.
The Guardian of Time and Space took a deep breath and said, "Will the Lord of Light also take action?"
If it is just the law of death, the arrival of the opponent's real body will lead to unpredictable consequences. The God above gods will assimilate the laws of the universe, and all this is just the beginning. If you want to close the door and beat the dog, you naturally have to close the door first and then beat the dog.
The Lord of Death said calmly: "This is the Pantheon's business. It is not your business."
The Ancient Time Dragon at the side suddenly asked, "Asmodeus is here too?"
“Will He also descend in person?”
For tens of thousands of years, the real body of the Lord of Hell has been sleeping in the deepest part of Baator. In the era of the ancient gods, he was the one who slew chaos demons most diligently.
In addition, the Abyss and Baator are one and the same.
At the end of the Age of Ancient Gods, Asmodeus, the Lord of Hell, tore a piece of flesh from the Abyss, thus transforming the nine layers of Baator Hell into an independent plane.
This person is actually an ancient being who masters the laws of space.
In the deepest part of Baator Hell, there has been an extremely powerful army of devils sleeping. The entire bloody battle in the abyss is its training ground. There are always some powerful devils that disappear silently, as if their existence has been wiped out.
Moreover, there has always been a very strange place in Baator.
When Asmodeus fell, he brought with him an elite angel army. Those fallen angels who had slain Chaos Demons for tens of thousands of years had no presence in Baator. There were only a few fallen angels left in Baator. It was impossible that all of them were killed by Asmodeus. He was not the kind of person who would kill his most loyal followers for no reason, and his companions who were willing to follow him into hell.
The ancient time dragons have always known that in the deepest part of Baator, there slumbers an elite legion of angels from the age of the ancient gods.
They are all the first generation of fallen angels created by the Ancient God of Order.
The Lord of Death did not answer.
His figure gradually dissipated into nothingness. The Pantheon never needed to ask others for advice when doing things. This was to notify the Space-Time Center, not to ask the Space-Time Center's opinion.
Even if the Lord of Time, who founded the center of time and space, is resurrected, He is just a member of the Pantheon.
of course.
The Lord of Time is the oldest ancient god of order and is considered one of the core ancient gods who opened up the multiverse. The face that the Pantheon has given to the Space-Time Hub over the years is not for the Time Dragon or the Space-Time Guardians, but for the disappeared Lord of Time.
The multiverse was born from chaos, and the Lord of Time was one of the first ancient gods to awaken. After his birth, the multiverse had the concept of time.
The law of time is in their hands, and the Time Dragon is the condensed creation of the law of time. However, no matter how the law of space evolves, whether it is as big as the opening up of the Crystal Wall System, or the birth of the faith in gods after the ancient god era, or as small as the opening up of the plane of the kingdom of God, these are all the space laws of the Pantheon.
The establishment of the kingdom of God system is the rules set in the era of ancient gods.
It is also the condensation of the laws of space, and its representative ability is the extraordinary divine power [changing space], which is considered a standard ability of true gods with medium or higher divine power.
The entire system of the Kingdom of God is built on the laws of space.
In nothingness.
The space-time guardian was silent for a long time, then slowly said, "Prepare to activate the Neutron Star Golem."
"We may be facing a living planet!..."
The last relic of the Lord of Time.
According to legend, a god's kingdom can be shattered with just one strike. When the multiverse was just born, the Lord of Time created it from the remains of stars to deal with enemies that are as large as planets.
Only when the closure is successful can the indigenous people be able to beat the dogs with peace of mind.
This is the only way to preserve the entire Terra galaxy.
Otherwise, a battle with power above that of a god would directly turn the entire galaxy into debris in the universe. For a god-level being, it would be nothing for the real body to descend and crush a planet with bare hands.
Any divine power that is slightly stronger can easily destroy a planet.
………………
(PS: Planets in the plane of Faerun do not count, because the main body is the Earth Mother Goddess, which is equivalent to the Titans born from the condensation of Azeroth. Some planets have an ancient god condensed in their main body, and such existence is bound to the planet.)
