A senior officer in neat military uniform hurriedly knocked away a waiter in the corridor of the palace. He didn't bother to look back, but subconsciously apologized and continued running towards the end of the corridor.
It had been a long time since anyone had run around in such a panic in the palace. The guard on duty wanted to scold the officer to stop him from misbehaving in the palace, but he caught a glimpse of the pure gold five-star on the man's shoulder.
"Stand at attention!" When the officer passed by the guards, the guards on both sides raised their chins and sang loudly.
The officer just waved his hand casually, signaling to the guards on both sides to salute, and then rushed through the gate without incident.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! I hope that the news from Planet 2 has just been sent! The people have passed through the portal and arrived at Ailan Siris!" As soon as he entered the room, this officer with the rank of colonel saluted and became anxious.
Reporting.
Chris didn't speak, he just stretched out his hand and took the detailed document from the other party's hand.
He lowered his head to look at the contents, and then handed the document to Marshal Wageron beside him. Des, who was standing on the other side, was a little surprised, because most of the time, Chris would hand the document to him first.
"What happened?" Desire and Wageron were both temporarily recruited and rushed to the palace. They didn't know what exactly happened.
According to Des's speculation, there may be traces of the enemy, or it may be some other important thing.
In short, something big must have happened, otherwise it would be impossible for His Majesty the Emperor to recruit a marshal and a prime minister into the palace at the same time to discuss matters.
"The good news is that the Heavenly Sword Shen Sect may be surrendering." Chris explained to Des: "The news just sent to me is that the Heavenly Sword Shen Sect used the improved Cambridge technology of single-person transmission to send their sect leader.
Hope for Planet 2.”
"Send the sect master directly to Planet Hope 2?" Des repeated this matter, and then began to think about the huge information contained in this sentence.
"The bad news is that the Heavenly Sword Shen Sect was defeated! They encountered a terrible enemy and civil strife broke out." While Des was thinking, Chris continued to tell another piece of bad news: "It should have belonged to us.
Billions of people have now been wiped out."
"Billions of people?" Des repeated the sentence again. He felt that his brain was a little unable to keep up with Chris's thoughts.
"I will meet this so-called Mr. Sect Master later to see what amazing news he brings!" Chris made an invitation gesture, and then brought his prime minister and a solemn-looking Wagron.
Marshal, walked to the conference room.
The document that was sent in advance was placed on Chris's desk by Waggron. The content on it was also very simple: The Heavenly Sword Shen Sect was defeated by an unknown enemy. The sect was destroyed and suffered heavy losses. Seven or eight caves and heavenly paradise.
Being completely destroyed, billions of people in these worlds were also wiped out...
Chris was more concerned about the loss of population than the news of the Heavenly Sword Divine Sect's defeat. If he had found the Heavenly Sword Divine Sect first, these might have been his wealth.
In the conference room, the new sect leader of the Heavenly Sword Divine Sect named Xiao Renjie sat uneasily in his seat. Along the way, he had been so powerfully impacted by the Ailanthir Empire that he even stuttered when speaking.
The new sect master had no idea that there would be such a place in the world, where flashing neon lights illuminate the entire city like stars, maglev trains fly by at lightning speed overhead, and driverless cars follow one another in an orderly manner.
Running down the street in sequence.
Countless robots and humans were mixed on both sides of the street, and women in charming clothes were in groups sharing drinks with unknown names behind bright glass windows.
Even in his dreams, Xiao Renjie could not believe that a world could be so feasting and feasting. The power and power he pursued in his past life were so insignificant in this world, so insignificant that even mentioning them contained a hint of backwardness and occlusion.
breath.
No way, even His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Empire has never seen Boston lobster on his menu. Of course, he never thought that one day he would be able to take the subway when he went out. These are obviously familiar to ordinary people today.
something.
Just take a casual look at the countless transport spacecraft that fly into space every day, look at the huge space battleships that leave from time to time on the star ring, and look at the Dyson sphere structure with "clear latitude and longitude" on the sun above your head.
, you can roughly know how powerful this world is.
When Chris walked into the conference room, the guards waiting on both sides of the door sang loudly. The moment His Majesty the Emperor arrived, Xiao Renjie stood up subconsciously. When he realized that he didn't need to be so nervous, he walked in
The powerful young man had already pressed his palms to indicate that he could sit down.
If he were the true master of the Shen Sect, he might have performed better than him. After thinking this in a self-deprecating way, Xiao Renjie shook his head slightly and returned to reality.
He simply decided to be a bachelor, and Xiao Renjie didn't even sit down. He just stood there and said directly to Chris: "Your Majesty, Xiao came here this time to represent the remaining 32 cave heavens of the Heavenly Sword Divine Sect and pay homage to Chris.
You surrendered!"
Chris nodded slightly. He had already guessed what the other party was thinking. After all, judging from the information that the Tianjian Shen Sect's sect had been destroyed, he knew that the Heavenly Sword Shen Sect didn't have many options left.
"Half a month ago, I was just a lecturer. Although I am very strong among lecturers, I am still not among the best in the Shen Sect." Xiao Renjie continued.
He briefly introduced to Chris the earth-shaking changes that had taken place in the Heavenly Sword Sect in the past month.
I just heard him speak slowly, and in an uneasy tone, he talked about secrets that the senior officials of the Eilanhill Empire didn't know yet:
"We were invaded by a terrifying enemy that calls itself the Watcher! They arrived without warning, and the war just broke out."
"In fact, all our preparations to fight against the Elanshir Empire were spent on dealing with these armies of watchmen."
"However, even though we invested tens of millions of troops, we were ultimately defeated. We lost a large number of swordsmen and also completely lost Cambridge outside the sect."
As he spoke, Des and Wageron, who were listening to these stories, could not believe the horrific war.
"The internal fighting within the sect began. After killing the eighth elder, the sixth elder joined forces with the great elder and the second elder to severely injure the supreme elder, and the entire sect's defense collapsed."
"Just after leaving seclusion, the First Elder and the Second Elder, who had mastered their skills, died due to serious injuries. The Sixth Elder was directly beheaded by the Supreme Elder on the spot."
"The Supreme Elder, who was also seriously injured, took some swordsmen and fled into the richest Cave Heaven Paradise. Then they closed the Cambridge entrance to the Cave Heaven Paradise."
"And Fu Yuanfeng, the leader of the Shen Sect who finally breathed his last, handed over the Nine Heavens Star Chart, the sect's most precious treasure, to the newly elected leader...that is, me..."
"Because the enemy's attack was unstoppable, we used the remaining spiritual stone reserves to blow up all the Cambridges in the Cave Heaven Paradise, sealing off the sect's connection with these worlds."
"In fact, we have no way or strength to establish connections with these worlds anymore, because we have lost all our masters and our reserves of wealth have been exhausted."
"Everyone knows that if we sit still and wait for death, one day the Supreme Elder will come back with his people... By the time they find us, we will be dead."
"The current situation is that we are no longer able to build Cambridge to connect those cave heaven paradises, but if the Supreme Elder recovers first, he may find those cave heaven paradise first and turn it into a world under his control!"
"So, after much thought, we decided to formally surrender to the Elanthir Empire. We are willing to hand over these caves and paradise... hand over everything we have, just to retain the sect and retain the last trace of dignity of the swordsmen."
After saying this, Xiao Renjie, the new leader of Shenzong, stood there, waiting for His Majesty the Emperor Chris to speak.
Chris didn't let Xiao Renjie wait too long. He just nodded slightly and said, "We can accept unconditional surrender. We can also establish a connection with those worlds and accept them."
As he spoke, he once again motioned for Xiao Renjie to sit down and said: "Sit down... I can assure you that swordsmen can get fair treatment in our world, and I can even give you the legal status of citizens.
"
"But!" He changed the topic and continued: "Under the laws of the empire, everyone is equal! Since you are willing to join the empire and become a part of the empire, you should fulfill your obligations after enjoying the power!"
"That's natural..." Xiao Renjie nodded in understanding, and then asked nervously: "So, Your Majesty...what exactly is the obligation..."
"Fight for me!" Chris said simply: "If I need it! Of course, you don't have to worry that I will treat you as cannon fodder to be sacrificed at any time. You, like all citizens of the empire, will be treated equally!"
"Your Majesty, maybe you should consider ending all unnecessary wars!" Xiao Renjie, the new leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect, thought for a while and said to Chris: "If you have seen the Watcher's army, you will know that
is the real enemy."
"This is exactly what I want to ask you! Tell me about the mysterious watcher..." Chris suggested with great interest.
"No time, Your Majesty! Our spiritual stone materials are not enough to completely destroy those Cambridges! Soon the guardians will find that those Cambridges are only disturbed and not destroyed! The most important thing for us now is to connect those caves and paradises as soon as possible
, to save those worlds that will soon be destroyed..."
"..." Chris certainly knows how much power it takes to destroy a space teleportation magic circle. This kind of magic that destroys the rules of space is simply a gold-swallowing behemoth. Every time one is established, a large amount of energy is required to maintain its operation.
If you want to close such a space tear, you need more energy to destroy it hard. In fact, no matter what you choose, it is a huge waste.
This is why the Airanhill Empire relies more on small-scale space magic. The cost of using spaceships to contact various planets to establish magic eyes is too huge.
"Okay!" Chris finally nodded: "Then tell me what we need to do now to save these worlds."
"Buzz..." Along with a buzz, a ray of light appeared in the conference room. The bright long scroll formed by energy gradually unfolded, and even the light of the electric lights in the room was covered up.
In this huge long scroll, there are stars shining with light. Next to these stars, there are words formed by the convergence of energy.
Those are energy coordinates marked one after another in the vast universe, precise coordinates of caves and blessed places with life.
…
"I wonder if Xiao Renjie can bring reinforcements..." A swordsman walked back and forth in the room, looking anxious.
"Shut up, that's the new sect leader we elected! How can we call him by his first name?" Another swordsman scolded, with a nervous look on his face: "This is our only chance! Our only chance..."
The former sect leader Fu Yuanfeng spent his life and opened a one-man Cambridge to send Xiao Renjie to Planet Hope 2. Their only master who could open the Cambridge was dead, so all they have left now is to wait.
This kind of waiting was torturous for two days, and they barely slept. Several lecturers in charge were as anxious as ants on a hot pot, walking around the room.
They didn't know whether Xiao Renjie had reached his destination or whether he could bring back reinforcements.
If those caretakers who spare nothing are allowed to repair Cambridge first, billions of people in the world will be in ruins. Or, to put it in a more popular and easy-to-understand way, they will all be dead!
While they were waiting nervously, a swordsman ran in in a panic, pointed outside and shouted out of breath: "Master! Cambridge! Cambridge!"
"What happened? Has the destroyed Cambridge responded?" A lecturer suddenly stood up and asked in a desperate tone.
"No, it's not... yes, there is a new Cambridge, appearing on the other side!" The swordsman adjusted his breathing and said in front of everyone's nervous eyes.
The lecturer who stood up sat back on his chair, as if he had collapsed: "Xiao Renjie succeeded... We are all saved..."——
The war is coming, and Long Ling is about to update it. Let's try our best to make it more enjoyable for everyone. Long Ling will try his best.
