Extra Chapter 1: The Never-Ending Adventure

"The day before yesterday, the thirty-second overseas inspection team completed its rotation. After regular intelligence reports, it was determined that the situation mentioned in the agreement was basically true. All countries finally reached a preliminary agreement on joining the Overwatch Agreement."

The cessation of the war did not let the new things during the war die out. The goblin war intelligence organization, under the needs of various races, quickly turned into a huge media empire after the war.

Unlike in the past, where only the intelligence agencies of various countries could obtain world news, now people can spend a little money and enjoy the pleasure of drinking tea and reading newspapers while criticizing the government's inefficiency.

"Forty-six years have passed since the Watch Association initiated the invitation and the intention to sign the contract was initially confirmed. Another human generation has passed. One can't help but sigh at the huge differences among our races and countries, the difficulty of reaching consensus, and the fact that it makes people sigh.

The sad administrative efficiency. The Elf Empire said that this efficiency is already ridiculously high. The world has changed too fast and cannot accept it. If possible, let us think about it for another fifty years. It is indeed the fault of the racial joint consultation mechanism that is prevalent in the bureaucracy."

Catalina put down the Black Crow Current Affairs in her hand and shook her head. The first part of what she said was somewhat reliable, but the second part was full of attacks and criticisms on the "joint consultation" mechanism, and she was full of dissatisfaction with the current situation.

If that's all, forget it. Repeatedly attacking Lan Meng and its leaders, the advocates of "United Business", and speculating about conspiracy and transactions, it seems that there are indeed rumors that the financial backers behind the current affairs are the aristocratic elders of the previous dynasty.

Several degrees of credibility.

"It seems that we need to bring it up with Sister Renee. With the pervasiveness of their special attack of the Lan Alliance, I think they have known about it for a long time. Maybe they have taken control of the current affairs editorial department and are now fishing with the left hand and the right hand."

Being no longer in the unreachable external world brings an open world view and brings ideological changes far better than material changes. New words and concepts such as "fishing", "anti-loyalty" and "advanced black" have become commonplace.

.

Especially as one of the senior councilors of Materte, the resurgent country of sages and engineers, Catalina, who has obtained the ancient heritage Tower of Babel, often has technical exchanges with outside civilizations, and has been touched a lot.

The achievements of the sage civilization in artificial souls back then were top-notch even when looking at the multiverse.

Although the history of its establishment is very short, the newly born country of Matrat is indeed a small country among small countries in terms of geographical area. However, as the increasingly prosperous holy land of magic mechanics and engineering, countless engineers and magic scholars flock here.

So far, in terms of technology and academic fields, it is already a big country comparable to the country of mages.

For more than thirty years, under the pretext of better adapting to world changes, integrating with the outside world, and eliminating war, the Northern Alliance has launched a multi-racial and multi-national joint consultation mechanism to “give countries and races a place to sit down and talk rather than confront each other.”

"Opportunity to Cut" has gained support from major countries such as San Antonio, Oran, and Bayer. After so many years of development, it has become more and more like a coalition government.

Undoubtedly, this has made it a lot easier for outside civilizations to deal with Ashe, and it has also made the world of Ashe a lot more peaceful. However, there are always people who are still dissatisfied, such as the old and young of the previous Holy Light Dynasty, who cannot continue as before.

A regional power that assumes its position of dominance and does whatever it wants to its subordinate countries, such as a small country that was fed soft nails by big gangsters in the "Union Business".

But in general, the past fifty years have been a peaceful and prosperous era that is rare in history. Being able to fight less and use human resources and resources for farming and improving life is something that was unthinkable before.

Some things are already in front of us. The reason why we have reached this point is not because modern people are any more noble than the ancients and love peace more. It is nothing more than the impression of two major factors, internal and external.

The external factor is the opening of the door to the plane. Although the extraterritorial civilization has always maintained a posture of restraint and non-interference in internal affairs, more and more news from the outside world has been passed back. The outside world is not the Balance of Heaven, and the unspoken rules of war and survival of the fittest are still there.

Existence, ensuring sufficient force, technological achievements and overall strength are the foundation for civilization to stand on the multiverse.

Pressure brings motivation, and external threats make Ashe's various races more united and harmonious. Recently, even the lords in the abyss have begun to prepare to join the "joint consultation mechanism." It makes people feel that the world is changing too fast.

And the internal factors driving all of this are naturally coming to the surface from the underworld side.

The fall of the God of Holy Light exposed the weakness of the most powerful pantheon in the past. The world was surprised to find that when the Lord of Holy Light was absent, the Holy Light pantheon could not find a second main god.

.

During those days of waiting for the "Final Judgment", the priesthood of the God of Holy Light was replaced by Estrada of the Four Pillars of Hades, and the "mundane possessions" of the mortal world were also replaced.

Once something is lost, it is impossible to get it back, especially since Estrada quickly became the second main god on the Hades side. After making the doctrine of pure Holy Light become the canon of Holy Light, the gap in strength widened and the foundation of faith was lost.

, without the God King, the Holy Light system was naturally marginalized.

And it is precisely the multi-party actions of this relatively relaxed new Holy Light system behind the scenes that have allowed the joint consultation mechanism of multi-ethnic coexistence to be successfully accepted by the world. If the old ways of the past are still followed, the Holy Light system will not be able to accept foreign races at all.

It can be said that anyone with a discerning eye can see that under the current general situation, the replacement of the overly hawkish Holy Light side by the relatively moderate Hades side is an irresistible historical trend.

Another consequence of "updating" involves the evaluation of historical figures, historical heroes and sinners.

The new Lord of Holy Light Estrada was the first to be dismissed. After all, he has become the new God of Holy Light. In addition, he has not tarnished the reputation of Kubu and the past. He is "the most powerful and pure human being."

It is not difficult to hang up the signboard "Guardian of the Holy Light" again.

However, when time exposed the truth to the world, the historical evaluation of two people caused widespread controversy. Or they were a pair of brothers.

Roland Lan, the founder of the Lan Alliance, the initiator of the Pure Holy Light Doctrine, the heir to the Way of Guardian, the chief architect of Hades, and the King of Eternal Night who almost destroyed the world!

Cavans Lan, the Lord God of the Abyss, a wanton egotist, there is no controversy about the others, but for his own selfishness, he opened the crystal wall door and looks at this historical event fifty years later. How can you think of it?

A good thing.

But Roland Lan tried his best to prevent the door from opening, and almost succeeded. Even though he had good intentions at the time, he was indeed hindering the progress of history.

"One person does bad things with good intentions, and the other does good things with bad intentions. It's really difficult to distinguish right from wrong."

"Without Cavins opening the door, various races would still be fighting for their living space and dominance. Even with the suppression of the forces of Hades, the war for survival opportunities will never stop."

"This is all an afterthought. Without the sacrifice of Carolan, the Lord of Holy Light, and without him attracting the civilized countries to guard the agreement in advance, the endless extraterritorial wolves would have enjoyed this opening feast first. Can Ashe survive it?

It’s hard to say.”

"On the top floor, is it possible to evaluate the cause and effect of historical figures just because of the results? According to this analysis, wouldn't Cavins, who does all evil, become a hero who saves the world? He obviously has no good intentions, is it just because

If the outcome is good, can those evil deeds be forgiven?"

"I think it's okay. There are no ifs in history. If the outcome is good, everything will be fine. And it has not been declassified. Cavins did not have good intentions back then, but other people in his team fought for their ideals."

Ever since the two brothers’ information was declassified more than thirty years ago, the dispute has never stopped. The reality that the two brothers are still serving their sentences in Hades’ purgatory because they are too powerful to be reincarnated has also made many neutral bystanders trust Hades even more.

Focus on the insistence on law and justice.

"Even Hades, the founder of the law will be judged after death, so there should be no doubt about the rigor and authenticity of God's law."

Recalling the various disputes caused by the mention of Gemini in the past, Catalina shook her head helplessly. Fifty years have passed, but the memory of the past has not been blurred at all. Thinking of the man who made people hate it.

While serving her sentence in purgatory, Catalina felt some inexplicable regrets and heartache.

"The most powerful main god Eliza publicly stated that if Hades does not release Roland Lan's soul within three months, the fourth Hades War will begin now. The Wood Spirit Mother Goddess Amyra expressed her support and will definitely participate in the war again.

"

This is not the first time that this powerless declaration of war has been made. As the two most powerful gods in the world, Eliza and Amyra have been trying to rescue Roland from Hades who is serving his sentence in Purgatory.

Currently, the only four pillar gods in the underworld are Ayer and Estrada, who are the real main gods. However, both of them have a special relationship with Roland and cannot be cruel to Eliza. The quarrel between the two main gods' salvation faction really made things worse.

I have a headache on the Hades side.

But it is absolutely impossible to release people. Not to mention the devastating consequences to the law of God, even the person who is serving his sentence insists on not wanting to leave. Is this guy addicted to prison?

On the other hand, Catalina learned from her own intelligence that during the third battle of Hades five years ago, Eliza clearly had the opportunity to break the Kingdom of the Dead, but in the end she did not choose to destroy Hades to save that person.

Perhaps, that's because Hades is that person's lifelong pursuit and achievement.

He shook his head and put aside the infiltrative advertisement "Friend, do you know Sad Wind? Welcome to join the interdimensional Sad Wind Cult", although in a sense, this legendary half-dragon hunter has become a member of the multiverse.

His church has appeared in countless worlds, and his teachings of "True Love Without Boundaries" have attracted countless waves.

It is said that back then, when he was traveling alone in the outer world, he once pulled together a strong team to help save Ashe. However, due to some reasons, such as passing by the Beast King Planet, Rise of the Planet of the Apes, etc., it was ultimately a step too late.

Didn't come in handy.

And due to his "excessive activity" in the multiverse, more and more Ashe people are ashamed to admit that he is also from Ashe. For today's Ashe people, if outsiders say "You know Sad

Wind?" That would definitely be a slap in the face and humiliation, and they would definitely end up in a fight. The exception was the cultists of the Bei Feng God Sect.

Catalina shook her head and put aside the horrific cases and dirty news she just recalled. Instead, there was a wanted order in front of her that made people laugh or cry.

"Wanted order: Adam Han, a red-haired fool with wanderlust, very stupid and road-crazy, an irresponsible person who left his wife and daughter behind just saying he wanted to see the outside world. If you meet anyone, please contact

Speaker Margaret of the country of mages must be greatly thanked. No matter life or death, if you can kill him, then go ahead."

Catalina played with the wanted poster in her hand and looked at the red-haired swordsman in the shadows who was looking down at the map with a half-smile.

"You are quite capable of making the good-tempered Margaret so angry. But judging by the time, you should have been outside the territory long ago. Why did you come to me to open the door for you?"

Hearing this, the red-haired swordsman fell silent, but he knew the reason from the trembling arms holding the map. This guy held the map backwards again!

"As an adventurer, I want to go out and see the endless world outside. Such a small Ashe can no longer satisfy me."

"Isn't it really to avoid the responsibilities of the husband, the joint chief warrior of the underground city-states and the speaker of the mage country?"

Adam was silent, and big drops of sweat continued to fall. After so many years, he still would not lie.

"Actually, I got a message that that person will be reincarnated in the outside world soon, and he may need help."

"Then you all continue to be lawless together? Count me in, but it seems that's not possible now."

The voice coming from outside the door was so familiar that Adam was immediately delighted. This was the person who had been traveling with him for a long time.

"Xiao Hong, I knew you would come."

But the voice became louder and stiffer as he spoke, and his body froze, because behind that figure was a more familiar person.

"Go home."

Margaret, who was holding the red-haired girl's hand, was much kinder, but the slightly glancing look in her eyes with a smile made Adam want to run away.

"Eliza has already planned it. After Roland can run around again for at least ten years, he can go home first."

She originally planned to make a fuss when they met, but after taking a look at the pleading little girl, Margaret sighed helplessly, and finally decided to put in a nice word and deal with this bastard man properly after she got home.

"Is it okay to stay with Lisa for at least a few years until she grows up? My dear?"

Looking at Margaret, who had rarely softened, what could Adam, who was becoming more and more strict about his wife, say, nod in agreement. "The adventure is not over, just take a rest first." To be continued.
