[Ensuring the safety of your universe?] Owen was a little confused.

【Yes.】

Knowing that Irving would be confused, Winter continued to explain.

[Owen, you also know that the gods on our side were awakened by the magic transferred from your side. Therefore, your gods are very likely to know the situation in our universe. All civilizations work together to kill the gods. This kind of crime is

Your gods cannot turn a blind eye to their actions. In order to prevent your gods from interfering with our universe, I think it is necessary to help you eliminate the gods.】

【That's it, then I'll leave it to you.】

After understanding the reason, Owen readily accepted the help provided by Winston.

There is no way, the civilization that Owen lives in does not have the ability to defeat the gods. In order for the continuation of civilization, it must rely on external forces.

[By the way, how long does it take from proposing a resolution to completing the process and obtaining permission to use the second-generation God-Destroying Cannon? Can you tell us so that we can make corresponding preparations?] Owen then asked.

【Um...】

After a quick mental calculation, Winster gave an estimated answer.

[Converted to your time, it will take about a month.]

【One month?】

Hearing this time, Owen's face couldn't help but become solemn, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

【Okay, I know.】

It is exactly the time it takes for the undead army to cross the Mark Desert. In other words, the people's army will inevitably have a fierce battle with the undead army.

The God-Destroying Operation and the war had to be carried out at the same time.

[Owen, I still have to report this to the Earth Alliance, and we will propose a resolution at the United Universe Will conference to be held in the near future. If you have no other questions, this is the end of the contact. What’s new in the future?

I will take the initiative to contact you regarding the progress.】

Considering that this matter is rather urgent, Winston is not prepared to chat with Irving for too long.

【No...wait a minute!】

Just as he was about to say goodbye to Winston, Owen suddenly thought of something important and finally asked a question.

[After you used the second-generation God-Destroying Cannon to destroy the gods, did all the magic in the universe disappear at once?]

【Yes.】

Winster responded in the affirmative.

[At that time, the magical achievements accumulated by your civilization over the past thousands of years will turn into nothingness overnight, and you will also experience a catastrophe caused by the disappearance of magic power, and be forced to adapt to the next era without magic power.

But compared with the ending of civilization’s demise, this outcome is already the best.】

Indeed, although there are still many difficulties to be faced after annihilating the gods, Owen's civilization at least has hope of continuation, and its destiny is in his own hands.

[Do you have any other questions?] Winster asked again.

[No, no more.] Owen responded.

In this way, both parties took the initiative to cut off contact.

It is still late at night, a bright moon hangs high in the night sky, and there seem to be fewer stars in the sky than before.

The northern industrial zone of Dawn City is brightly lit, and you can still hear the rumble of large machines operating. Workers working the night shift in the military factory are working hard to produce various military supplies to provide logistical supplies for the upcoming war.

.

Since Irving declared a national emergency, this situation can be said to be the norm.

castle.

The lights were still on in Owen's dormitory, and the light bulb installed on the ceiling seemed to have been used for a long time, and it seemed that the buzzing sound of electricity could be heard.

Just after talking to Winston, Owen still did not go to bed, but continued to sit at the table and sort out the documents in his hands.

"Alas -" he couldn't help but let out a long sigh, "after defeating the gods, will the magic power disappear completely..."

Maybe because he originally lived in a universe without magic, Winster overlooked one thing.

That is, Owen belongs to the group of magicians. He is born with strong magic power in his body, and has adapted to this state, and is highly dependent on magic power.

Once the magic power disappears, people without magic power will not feel anything, people with a small amount of magic power in their bodies may feel a little uncomfortable, and there is no doubt that magicians will collectively fall into a state of magic power exhaustion.

As mentioned before, this is a very dangerous state that will endanger the life of the magician.

The reason why Irving finally asked Winston that question was because he thought of this.

But in the end, in order not to worry Winston, Owen still did not mention the matter to him.

This is really disappointing!

If the gods are not eliminated, Owen will die in the destined destruction of civilization, but even if the gods are eliminated, there is still a high chance that he will die due to exhaustion of magic power.

No matter what choice you make, you will end up with death in the end.

Although giving up destroying the gods would satisfy his own selfish goals of living a few more years, Owen would never make this choice.

Since coming into contact with Winster's ideas, Owen has deeply realized that collective interests are greater than individual interests.

Given a choice between the continuation of civilization and a few more years of his own life, Owen would definitely choose the former without hesitation. He would be willing to sacrifice his personal interests for the sake of the collective interests.

Of course, Owen was not the only one who made the sacrifice, but a small group of magicians in human society.

Owen also knew that he was not qualified to make sacrifice decisions for the magicians, but for the sake of the overall situation, he had to do so.

Because Owen cannot disclose the god-destroying plan to the outside world, if the Rumichalean cult knew about this plan, there is a high probability that they would object.

If you think about it, the gods that many believers have always believed in have been eliminated. Is it still necessary for the Nalumical Religion to exist?

But to be honest, now that the magic of faith has failed, the Holy Theocracy of Caleb has long been in chaos, and its external influence and deterrence have also been greatly reduced.

Even so, Owen still needs the support of the Holy Theocracy of Caleb.

After all, the plan to destroy the gods will not be implemented until a month later. By then, the undead army will also attack, and a big battle will be unavoidable for both sides. Therefore, the more troops stationed in Red Sand Fortress and Dawn City, the better.

"Two days later, I have to fly to the Holy City in person to meet with the new pope. It's getting late, so I'd better go to bed."

After sorting out the documents on the table, Owen left his seat, turned off the light and went to bed.

I don't know if he had too many things on his mind. That night, Owen had a very long nightmare.

He dreamed that the plan to destroy the gods failed, and that he was easily crushed to death by the gods like an ant. A huge army of undead invaded the Crimson Sand Fortress and Dawn City, and the entire continent fell into chaos. Tragedies were everywhere, and civilization was dying step by step.
