Zeus and Hades sat opposite each other, with a chessboard in front of them, playing chess and chatting at the same time.
"Haha, old man, after all the trouble, your army is still blocked by that guy Odin." Zeus laughed.
"It's just a temporary defeat." Hades didn't care: "In the world of gods, we are just a pusher. It doesn't matter whether we win or lose. But in the world of mages, Zeus, without Russell, your situation is not good.
.”
Zeus sighed: "It's all because of the impulsiveness of this old guy Odin. However, although your lich regained its legendary power, it took ten years. Three legendary mages also appeared in my territory.
We still have to wait until the fight to find out how it will end."
If Russell had been alive, the war situation would have been decided long ago. Why is there such a stalemate like now? What a pity for a peerless talent.
"Don't talk about this, let's discuss business." Hades couldn't stand it anymore and pushed the chessboard aside: "The company has acquired 30% of the shares of the Earth World, and the specific plan for the merger of the world servers has been released. Five hundred years later, the merger will
The new world will undergo a rule adjustment, and all players will be temporarily offline until the rules are completely harmonized. By then, the saints of the earth and our power will be greatly restricted. How to deal with the new situation needs to be carefully thought about. "
"It is indeed a problem. I heard that the earth is also integrating power. When it is integrated, the real battle will be the confrontation between us and those Taoist masters. Are you ready?" Zeus asked.
Hades laughed: "Five hundred years later, I will already be the first God King. How to deal with it. Naturally, I have the final say."
"I hope you can get what you want." Zeus didn't take it seriously. He didn't want to show off his words. He stood up and said, "As for Odin, he has performed very well recently. Maybe he will be a good assistant in the future."
"Maybe, but he can no longer take the stage because the time has passed." Hades laughed.
At this moment, on the platform at the top of the underworld, a white mist figure slowly appeared.
Hades and Zeus immediately saluted: "Great One, you are here."
The figure in the white mist was the Dragon of Order. A vague voice came out: "While you are all here, I want to tell you something."
"You said."
"The world of gods in the future will be renamed the Kingdom of Heaven. In the Kingdom of Heaven, there will be only one main god and there will be angels. Angels are divided into three levels and nine levels, and the current gods will serve one by one. I will give you the framework and specific details.
.You can discuss it among yourselves."
As he spoke, two light spots flew out of the white mist, which contained information about the future kingdom of heaven. The information was received by Hades and Zeus, and after reading the contents, their eyes revealed a fanatical light.
Hades asked: "Who will be the only lord?"
"Whoever wins between you two will get my last gift of knowledge and become the almighty Lord in charge of the entire angel army."
A misty voice came from the white mist, and then the mist slowly faded and disappeared.
The Dragon of Order is gone.
Hades and Zeus looked at each other, seeing ambition in each other's eyes.
"In the world of mages, I will do my best!"
"Stay with me to the end!" Zeus snorted coldly, his body turned into a white light, and he quickly returned to the Holy Mountain of Olympus, but he went to preside over the battle in the mage world.
As for the things in the world of gods, he has no time to pay attention to them. He will sort them out after he becomes the sole master.
Hades and his general thoughts immediately gathered all the gods in the pantheon to discuss the strategy of the mage world.
The two eternal gods are very busy and have no time to pay attention to the affairs of their territories.
……..
Sun Ran left behind 50,000 warriors to cooperate with the elves in guarding the Dawn Fortress, while the remaining 100,000 were brought back to the Highland Kingdom, and they agreed to take turns every three years.
After the Dark Legion was defeated, it was temporarily unable to attack and retreated to the north to recuperate and accumulate strength to move south.
For a time, the mainland calmed down. The calm lasted for five years.
In the past five years, under the leadership of Sun Ran, the Highland Kingdom has continued to develop at an explosive rate. In the southern boundary, large areas of forest have been cut down, towns have risen from the ground, and large numbers of human slaves have continued to seek refuge from all directions.
Come.
Especially the Elf Empire. There are about eight million elves in the empire, but there are more than 20 million human slaves.
In the past five years, the number of human slaves has been rapidly losing at the rate of one million every year. Every year, strong and young slaves risk their lives and escape at all costs to seek refuge in the free, fertile and highlands full of countless opportunities.
kingdom.
The elves tried to stop it, but the effect was minimal. They could only send messengers to protest to Sun Ran.
Sun Ran practiced Tai Chi and received the elf envoys with great ceremony every time, making these envoys feel fully respected. However, he hesitated and kept silent about the slaves.
Over time, this matter became a quarrel, and the discussion could not come to an outcome for a long time.
In five years, due to the continuous defection of human slaves, the population of the Highland Kingdom exceeded 10 million, surpassing the Elf Empire.
Moreover, most of these people are young people with strong bodies, and the proportion of old people is very small.
Sun Ran promptly issued a new decree. The core of the decree is: "Whoever reclaims the forests in the south is the owner of the land!"
As a result, these young people went crazy, with endless enthusiasm, fearless of dangers and sufferings, and crazily headed south to open up the territory of the Highland Kingdom.
Due to the fiery enthusiasm of these young people, the size of the Highland Kingdom increased at a speed that stunned the elves, and quickly grew into a terrifying behemoth.
The changes in the Highland Kingdom made the elves panic, and the changes happened quietly. The elves were divided into conservative and innovative factions, and they argued endlessly every day.
The conservatives, who are mainly middle-aged and elderly elves in high-level positions, believe that the traditions of the elves must be maintained. They passed cruel laws to prevent slaves from escaping, and they did so. Every slave who tried to escape and was recaptured was immediately subjected to horrific measures.
of torture.
The reformists are mainly young elves. They advocate change and seek full cooperation with the Highland Kingdom. The leader of this group is Sivana.
What makes Sun Ran dumbfounded is that even if they are divided into two groups, the elves of the two groups are still unwilling to engage in any menial labor. They all believe that this tarnishes the noble blood of the elves.
Five years later, a group of young elves headed by Sivana, totaling more than 50,000 people. Most of them were magicians, announced their separation from the Elf Empire, called themselves "New Elves", and rushed to the south to join the Highland Kingdom.
The Elf Empire tried to stop it, but Sun Ran immediately welcomed it and said that if the Elf Empire stopped it, the food trade between the two tribes would be stopped. So the Elf Empire, which had been unknowingly controlled by the Highland Kingdom, expressed a few gentle protests.
There was no sound at all.
Sivana took the elven magicians to the south, and with the help of the highlanders, they started major construction projects. Within a year, a huge magic city was built.
On the day the Magic City was built, Sivana invited the King of the Highlands to name the city.
At this time, Sun Ran was riding a pure black unicorn, standing on the high ground outside the city, looking far ahead at the magical city that had taken a lot of manpower and material resources to build. He smiled and said: "Odin's palace has become a
Let’s call this city ‘Valhalla’.”
Sivana rode a pure white unicorn. Standing next to him, she was now a great astrologer. She heard the words and said with a smile: "Then, from now on, Valhalla will become a magic shared by humans and elves.
Capital. Here we will devote ourselves to teaching the Highlanders the secrets of magic."
Sun Ran nodded, was silent for a moment, and sighed: "Sivana, I am almost 40 years old. Although I have become a demigod, the human lifespan is limited. I can probably live for forty years. In these forty years, I hope you will
It can completely separate the new elves from the forest elves. You know, many slaves who escaped from the elven empire are full of hatred for that empire. This is something I can't stop."
The containment methods of the Elf Empire have a certain effect, but they make the human slaves who successfully escaped hate it deeply. The hatred has penetrated into the bone marrow and will break out sooner or later. If the new elves are entangled with the Elf Empire, it will easily affect Chiyu.
.
Sivana was startled, and turned to look at Sun Ran. She saw that his hair was still black, his body was still strong, and his majesty was even more unfathomable. But if you look closely, you can see the lines at the corners of his eyes and the wrinkles on his forehead.
It has begun to age.
And she herself is only seventy years old. Based on the lifespan of an elf, this is equivalent to more than thirty years of human life.
Unknowingly, Sal's life process has advanced ahead of hers, and he has become older than her.
No matter how glorious the glory is, it will come to an end, and no matter how great the king is, he will eventually grow old.
For a moment, Sivana suddenly realized that her heart was full of sadness.
On impulse, she spoke: "Saar, maybe I can have a life connection with you and share life. If I live, you can live."
Life connection, the essence of this magic is to share game time, and if one party dies due to accident, it will not affect the life of the other party.
Before the player enters the game, the game company signs an agreement with the player. The game company will not give any hint about the magic of life connection. The player will decide and be responsible for it, and has nothing to do with the game company.
Sun Ran smiled: "That's not necessary."
"Don't you miss your kingdom and your throne?"
"Ha~ Of course I am nostalgic, this is human nature. However, if I keep occupying the throne, I will leave a very bad tradition to my descendants. I don't want my kingdom to decay because of my greed. No more
In ten years, my eldest son will be over thirty years old and his temperament will have matured, so it will be time for me to pass on the throne." Sun Ran smiled forlornly.
Sivana felt extremely uncomfortable and couldn't help but ask: "Thal, why are you doing this?"
"I hope that the human race can always stand in the forest of powerful races and be a noble person from birth. Instead of being a lowly slave like me when I was a child."
After saying that, Sun Ran gently pulled the reins, turned the horse's head, and slowly walked down the hillside with his bodyguard, and the figure slowly faded away.
Sivana stared at his back in despair, speechless.
On the side, Moses, who has become the Grand Arcanist, said with admiration: "Teacher, among the highlanders, Your Majesty is the only person I admire. In him, the true noble blood flows."
Sivana did not answer and asked instead: "Moses, do you think it is possible for Sar to become the immortal god?"
"I don't know, maybe. Your Majesty is the only person I can't see through."
