"The Devil's Whisper" is the first prelude to Ashe's seven catastrophes, and it is also the beginning of everything.
With the awakening of the will of chaos, the cultists and devil worshipers who worshiped the evil god of chaos began to create chaos and unrest in the entire world. When all the ancient elemental gods were released, the arrival of the elemental tide changed the entire world.
In addition to the crazy increase in value of elemental creatures and monsters, in addition to allowing strong men of all races to emerge in large numbers, it also gave the undead kings of the undead planes the possibility of returning to the main plane, and also laid the foundation for the future invasion of the main plane by the demon army.
shadow.
At the same time, careerists and idealists are also beginning to stir up troubles. The most powerful and dangerous among them are the believers of the evil god who hope to establish an independent country and welcome the evil god's coming, and the underground city masters who have ambitious plans to return to the surface.
Not long ago, this prelude has been started. Except for the unlucky guy in the underground world who was reduced to death while still in the sealing stage and was eaten just after being released, I am afraid that the other elemental gods will be released one by one. A large number of elements
Life will come into this world.
Of course, if it hadn't been for the epic mission brought about by the overture plot, I wouldn't have been able to be resurrected so perfectly.
And ten years later, when an expansion pack "Vultures of War" was released, driven by conspirators and careerists, the entire continent was in chaos.
So, what happened in these ten years.
First of all, there are numerous talents from various countries, new types of armed forces, and troops. The crazy increase in national power and combat power has made the monarchs of big countries ready to take action. In addition, some organizations and individuals are fanning the flames, such as assassinating the nephew of an emperor in the name of a small country.
Provide a trigger for big countries that already expect war.
At the beginning of the war, it was just a big country annexing a small country. With victory, when the whole country fell into war fever, when endless greed and war dividends blinded the eyes of the emperor and nobles, as countless new knight lords needed
As more land is acquired and national power grows, the vultures of war are circling the entire human world.
In the final analysis, this is just the recurrence of the law that everything that flourishes must decline. The surface society with humans as the main body has developed to a certain extent, and the major countries hope to go further. Either they hope to become the emperor who unifies the entire human society, or they hope to become the leader of a region.
Overlord, even without the instigation of conspirators, the outbreak of war is still natural.
For some supreme beings, the peaches are ripe and it is time to harvest, so the horn of war is sounded again, and the supreme holy war is waiting earlier.
During the World War, when major countries started a full-scale war with their own vassals, some people even happily predicted that even after the war, a new empire spanning the entire continent would bring human society into a new stage.
But then, the cruel facts slapped the major countries in the face, telling them that this world is not about human beings playing stand-alone games, but about various ethnic groups playing online games together.
The elven empire led various tribes to rise, and the common alien wars such as the invasion of orc tribes were not mentioned. The invasion of the underground coalition allowed human countries with a hundred times the number to see what gold is like cannon fodder, and dragons are sold for sale.
There are as many legends as dogs, and demigods make so much difference.
Before the human army with a hundred times the number had time to laugh at the number of the opponent's legions, they immediately saw what it meant to be a crushing individual strength gap, what it meant to fight one against a hundred, and what it meant to fight against ten thousand, and what it meant to have the headquarters be overwhelmed before the fight even started.
If the opponent takes it away, what does it mean to be charged into the city wall by a cavalry team?
You, a legion commander, may not be as strong as the opponent's elite veteran. This battle is really impossible to fight. If it weren't for the underground coalition, which then fell into unevenly divided internal strife, and if it weren't for the big countries sacrificing the interests of small countries without hesitation, space exchange would
Time, exchanging land for the temporary satisfaction and division of the underground coalition, delaying the decisive battle, I am afraid the war has already ended.
Then the undead and natural disasters invaded, and the powders of the undead demigods who had been exiled to other worlds in ancient times appeared one after another, which made human beings know the pain of lacking top combat power, and they had no idea how to compare with the natural disasters in terms of numbers and cannon fodder.
.
As for the subsequent demonic invasions and the last few catastrophes, they were actually just a few more cuts on the riddled Ashe continent. Anyway, he was already seriously injured and dying, and he would have died if he had left him alone.
And with endless deaths, the final war will continue to escalate. When the goddess of order and the goddess of chaos go into battle in person, everything should be over.
To be honest, every time I see this "history", I feel a sense of powerlessness from the bottom of my heart, which makes people feel that there is no motivation. In the face of this historical trend, personal power can be completely ignored.
Prevent the outbreak of war? I'm not that naive, but there are things I can do and have done.
For example, the invasion of the underground world is still inevitable due to the strong desire of the underground residents, but under the leadership of Sulfur Mountain City, at least the aggression will be much stronger, and as long as it is handled properly, they can even unite to become a help to resist other catastrophes.
.
And the Siro Empire, a variable I created with my own hands, has had another strange effect - the invasion of the undead natural disasters from the undead planes has been advanced.
It turns out that it should have started more than seventy years later, rather than the maximum thirty years that Ducas told me. Perhaps, this should be thanks to the efforts of the Speaker of the Night Parliament, the Second Consul Fetlan.
Does it seem like a bad thing? No, it’s actually a good thing.
With the arrival of the elemental tide, the connection between the planes will become easier and easier. There is no chance that the undead emperors who have been eyeing him for a long time will not come. If they come earlier, they will become a powerful foreign enemy that will end Ashe's civil war early.
Moreover, if they forcefully enter the main plane at the beginning of the elemental tide, it is inevitable that the strength and military strength of the undead emperors will be damaged. At least the three undead emperors who have reached the level of true gods will definitely not be able to enter. So, this time
The scale of the undead natural disaster is definitely much smaller than in history, which gives the possibility of dealing with it in batches.
Therefore, my instructions to the royalist faction are to reconcile with Fetlan, push forward the invasion of the alien plane with all their strength, and strive for his arrival as early as possible.
It would be better if they could come before the invasion of the underground world. Then, using the excuse of fighting the undead together, it would be easy to ask humans to cut off a piece of land, or directly grab a piece of land from the undead natural disaster. Maybe,
After the war, both sides can achieve coexistence and reserve sufficient combat power to deal with subsequent troubles.
Of course, this is the good thing about the undead natural disaster invasion in advance. The bad thing is that if the weakened undead natural disaster cannot be overcome, the game will be finished in advance, or if the underground coalition loses control, or no reconciliation is reached, then we must deal with it at the same time.
The Undead Scourge and the Underground Alliance are also played together.
"Well, the future is very troubled anyway, and there is not much hope in the first place. So, let's just treat the dead horse as a living horse doctor."
-------------
The Oran Empire was founded just over 700 years ago, which is the shortest among the superpowers.
But they are not the weakest. On the contrary, due to the successive generations of wise kings who are determined to forge ahead and make the country prosperous and strong, there are vague signs of coming from behind.
The capital, Kagexi City, stands along the river. It is divided into eight districts with a total population of nearly 10 million. It is one of the top super nouns in the entire continent. The largest Pearl District has a population of 3 million and is known as the city that never sleeps.
If you want to describe the Oran Empire, then "luxury" is probably the most suitable adjective.
Moreover, the countless oil lamps and magic search lamps along the river, the luxurious carriages along the road, the cruise ships and cargo ships on the river, the gorgeously dressed gentlemen and ladies walking along the river, and the business travelers from all over the continent undoubtedly give this city an amazing vitality
.
But now the new emperor's succession ceremony is coming soon. The trees along the river are hung with colorful flags and jewelry. The main road is actually covered with expensive silk carpets. Even the gold-plated oil lamps along the road are burning the most senior people.
Fish oil, while making visiting guests secretly curse "rich rich people", they had to envy the strength and wealth of the Oran Empire from the bottom of their hearts.
The reason why this succession ceremony was so grand was not just for the sake of face. Originally, the affiliation of twenty-six countries had made him a great power. Now, the affiliation of forty-two countries also represents the complete freedom from politics of the Oran Empire.
The role of an upstart has suddenly become a very important superpower in the world.
Of course, some people don't think so. They are full of bad intentions and are preparing to cause damage.
But now, he is very troubled. After all, meeting old friends in a foreign land is a rare happy event in life, but he really wants to pretend that he doesn't know those old friends in front of him.
"As expected of the city of pearls, it's such a luxury that they even give out luminous pearls to passers-by."
"Stop talking nonsense and get it quickly!"
Well, those are the goblins Silver Hook and Kabala, both old acquaintances of Sulfur Mountain City. Now they are eyeing the jewelry decorating the tree. Even though the surroundings are surrounded by onlookers, everyone is pointing and pointing, they are still happy.
Hehehe was putting it into the torn sack.
"Oh oh oh, what a waste of high-quality fish oil. It should be used as a fuel additive for my old Hoyle."
He knew the people in front of him, but he would rather not know them. They had indeed come to the Oran Empire to give gifts and expected a bumper harvest. Calculating the time, they should have arrived a long time ago, but to meet here unexpectedly was considered a blessing.
A bad fate in a certain sense.
"Asshole, it's you thieves again! Now you're even here during the day."
"What? A thief? What nonsense are you talking about? Aren't these all placed on the road for others to take?"
"Yes, if you say it's yours, it's yours. If you call it, will it agree to it?"
Well, even though the goblin Kabala roared back so righteously, his hands and feet did not slow down. He quickly finished loading and dragged the bag away.
"Ahem, don't run, you bastards!"
The pace trained by long-term battles with the urban management of Sulfur Mountain City is so fast. These are all underground strong men who have no shame at all. The ordinary human guards behind them can't keep up, but they are running out of breath and are pulled further and further away.
.
"You come after us."
"Ha, the days without urban management are really as lonely as snow."
"Ha, I am invincible in Kabbalah...touch!"
Well, Kabala, who was a well-known pit digger in Sulfur Mountain City, slipped and fell with his mouth full of mud.
"Kabala, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you? We all said that the hole must be filled. Isn't this a punishment from God? Who threw the watermelon rind? It's so unethical. Kabala still owes old Hoyle a hundred thousand
Gold coins, if we kill him, can you afford to accompany him?"
Well, the anger at the beginning was understandable, but at the end it just went astray.
"There's not a hundred thousand, 100! Only 100! And, shorty, you obviously cheated in the card game last night, so I won't even return the 100 to you."
Even though there was a big swelling on his head, Goblin Kabala still struggled desperately and made a "one" with his index finger, fearing that this old dwarf with no sense of shame would take the opportunity to cover his head with a huge debt. Indeed,
, if Kabbalah had 100,000 gold coins, he wouldn’t drag a torn sack into the street to drag the decorations from the tree.
These are indeed considered jewels, but in fact they are of very low quality and not very valuable. Only goblins like Yin Gou and Kabala, who value wealth as much as their lives, would do such a thing.
Well, I really can’t stand it anymore, but obviously, there are people who can’t stand it even more.
"You bastards! You do this even in other cities!"
"Urban Guan Dashu! How is that possible? Didn't you go to the north of the mainland?"
"Damn it, there's that fierce dog!"
"Who is the fierce dog! Don't give other people random nicknames! Momo's name is very nice."
"Da Sha Niu? Okay, I understand."
But two former city officials with clenched fists blocked them one after another, and several strong men from the trial hall were holding down the formation on the side. The three dwarfs fell into despair.
"Don't slap me in the face!"
"No slap in the face!"
“I don’t even want to lose my face, how can I not be beaten?”
At this time, even passers-by were amused by the farce. Taking the opportunity, I, wearing a silver mask, smiled and asked the few security guards who were in a state of watching the show.
"Good evening, gentlemen! It's a nice night tonight, isn't it? Excuse me, which direction is the embassy of Donglan Principality?" (To be continued...)
ps: It seems to be getting better, there is another chapter tonight.
