The first thousand two hundred and forty-three chapters hunting gods
Your Majesty, please give me a full explanation for this matter. Why did you cancel my engagement ceremony with Princess Astia? Wasn't it already discussed? Why was it unilaterally forcibly cancelled? And without any prior notice."
In the brilliant, bright and neat inverted pyramid-shaped hall, a man sitting in the middle and upper floors asked the woman sitting at the top with great anger in his tone.
Although he is the Duke of the Empire, as civilization has developed to the present level, private individuals are not allowed to control weapons that can affect the entire civilization.
Therefore, although his status seems to be noble, in fact, there is no strong support at all. He is just a noble with a false title.
So in order to marry the most prestigious princess of the royal family, he ceded a large amount of business resources controlled by his family to others in exchange for support or for the other party not to compete. But now all his efforts have come to nothing.
"Duke Vijay Kumar, as a person, I deeply apologize for this matter. But as the Queen, I can tell you clearly that your engagement with Princess Astya must be terminated. This is related to
The survival and continuation of our civilization.”
"Is it related to the survival of civilization?"
Hearing this, the high-level civilization officials summoned by the Queen suddenly became interested. She originally thought that she was attending this emergency meeting today just to join in the fun and listen to gossip. She didn't expect that the relationship would be so important. They didn't think that the Queen
I would make a joke on such occasions.
"Oh, Your Majesty the Queen, I really don't know how the survival of our civilization can be related to my engagement with Princess Astia? I don't think Her Royal Highness and I have such influence."
"Your Highness the Duke, you indeed do not have such influence, but Princess Astia does."
At this time, the minister Remi Locke, who was sitting at the head of the empress, responded with a serious face. As the only person who had witnessed the power of the god who came without telling anyone, he knew very well the necessity of breaking off the engagement.
"Your Highness Princess? Ha? What on earth are you talking about? I admit that Princess Astia has an unparalleled beauty, but can this affect the rise and fall of our civilization? Don't you think it's too ridiculous?"
The engagement that was thought to be a foregone conclusion was suddenly terminated, and no one could accept such a result. Even the Duke, who was in a high position and had a lot of self-cultivation, was like this. At this time, he was a bit rude and loudly questioned the empress.
"Your Majesty the Duke, I can understand your mood. But I would like to ask, don't you think Princess Ashitia's appearance is beyond the world?"
"What do you want to say?" The Duke looked at the minister coldly. As soon as the news came out that his engagement with the princess had been terminated, in just a few days, he went from being the envy of all men in the empire to being a joke. This is right.
Multiple blows to his spirit and reputation.
"Since our civilization started the gene completion project, our bloodline no longer has the defects inherited from our ancestors. Everyone has a flawless body and appearance, and ugliness has nothing to do with us anymore.
Although this is the case, everyone's degree of perfection is still different, just like Princess Astia, but don't you think she is too perfect? So perfect that it is unreal, like a dream.
And now everything has the answer. The reason why Princess Astia is so perfect is because her essence is not a light-controlling person at all. She is the reincarnation of a great being, a body shaped by her, so she is so perfect."
"Absurd, this is what you told me? Are you fooling me?"
"There is no need for us to fool you. You are just a duke. Compared to the civilized whole, you are nothing at all."
"The reincarnation of a great being? Even if you object to my engagement with Astya, please come up with a more reasonable and convincing reason."
"Duke Vijay Kumar, do you know the tremors in the imperial capital half a month ago?"
"Didn't the official announcement say that one of the main engines was damaged and the maintenance department failed to replace it in time?"
"This is an excuse used to deal with citizens, but the reality is that a being came unexpectedly to show us his power."
"How is this possible?"
"What kind of existence can invade the core of our civilization? And also make the imperial capital tremble?"
What the empress said shocked the entire high-level civilization, and a fierce quarrel broke out. Most of them questioned the authenticity of this matter.
"If you don't believe this, then do you still remember the sun that turned the night into day that night? That is the true power of that great being, a power that can rival the sun."
"A great being suddenly visited me. Is his request to terminate my engagement with Princess Astia?" the Duke questioned, unwillingness surging in his heart.
"Yes, he claimed that Princess Astia was the reincarnation of his wife, so in order to avoid conflicts, I immediately asked Minister Remi Locke to announce the termination of the engagement." The empress said calmly, with a cold look in her eyes.
As the top leader, she will abandon all her emotions, not let her personal emotions influence her judgment, and make the best choice for civilization as much as possible.
"Is that the reason?"
"Isn't this reason enough? It is absolutely worth paying such a small price to appease a great being who is like a god. Even if He asks to use your life to appease his anger, I will not refuse."
"You..." The Duke raised his head and stared at the Empress with an angry expression. When someone clearly tells you that you will be treated as a victim, it is difficult to suppress negative emotions.
"The facts have proven that my decision was not wrong. We have won the favor of this great being. He has formed an alliance with us and will protect our civilization in the difficult years to come."
"Your Majesty, please explain this matter in detail."
…
"Report to me the results of your exploratory mission, Commander Zomali." Muria looked at the lost Lightkeeper in front of her with a gentle smile.
"Yes." The second generation ancestor, who was unable to accept the facts, suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his heart and began to report according to the script...
"Huh? There are seven worlds that you believe have a high probability of gods existing. Why were they classified as extremely dangerous and forbidden to enter in your exploration report? This is the only world that you have not reported to me.
What’s in there? It actually makes you juxtapose it with a world where gods might exist.”
"Report, I don't know!"
"I don't know what it means?" Muria raised an eyebrow.
"Because we know nothing about this world, all the teams that went in to investigate lost contact with a fleet almost instantly, and no useful information was sent back.
And such a situation has never happened in those worlds where there is a high probability of the existence of gods. This is a world where the advance fleet has not detected any information so far. "
"I see," Muria suddenly became interested, "your most important task now is to track down the traces of God and report to me as soon as possible. As for this world, you don't have to worry about it, I will be responsible for it.
"
"Er, isn't your student a god? Why are you still looking for gods?" After the fleet commander left, Ariana immediately asked with interest.
"My student is one of our own? Can I attack him?" Muria rubbed his forehead and said helplessly. Even if he can break through the moral line, attacking his own student may not necessarily bring him good results.
In a short period of time, he changed from an ordinary person to an earth god who is within reach of the position of true god. Such a change is really incredible. Although his own efforts are involved, external influence is indispensable.
.Jiuli is the protagonist of the era and has extraordinary luck.
"You can't attack Jiuli. Wait, do you want to attack other gods?" Ariana looked at Muria in horror.
"Of course, otherwise why do you think I and you are here?" Muria responded in a matter-of-fact tone.
The reason why their family took great risks to reincarnate into the big world was not to obtain resources to enhance their own strength.
As for the resources that are useful for epics, the easiest to find is naturally the gods. Every true god is the elite of the world. If you can kill a true god, the benefits you can get are extremely considerable.
However, although God is the easiest resource to find, it is very difficult to obtain such resources. In other words, it is the most difficult resource to obtain. If you are not careful, you will be killed. The roles of hunter and prey are very different.
Conversion occurs easily.
"You want to hunt the gods!" Ariana's expression cannot be described as wonderful.
"Not just me, but you too." Muria looked at Ariana, or to be more precise, at the Dragon King Atrice who was sleeping in her body.
He strongly suspected that his mother had woken up, but because of his presence, she did not have any sense of crisis, and because of her lazy nature, she simply pretended to be asleep.
Such suspicion is not without any basis, because from the time he met Ariana until now, Muria has taken her around the world, and has seen many wonders and strange sights, and has been frightened by the sights many times.
.
To be honest, with so much stimulation, the chances of Golden Dragon Lady waking up are very high. But today, Ariana is still like an ordinary little girl, without any outstanding features.
"We all came here to advance to a higher realm, and hunting gods is the most convenient way, but of course, it is also the most dangerous way."
"This...I will not participate."
"Of course you don't have to participate, but my mother, she must participate in the hunt for the gods."
