Chapter 662

The storm continued to rush from the north, mixed with abnormal heat and metal smell.

The gloomy sky is set off by black clouds. Standing on the huge observation tower in the center of the East banter plateau, Israel Diamond watched the hot and humid moisture extend along the iron gray horizon - the rainstorm falls, the Pobo Creek turns into a turbulent River, the lake dried up by a winter is full again, and the water is expanding on the black green land, The withered trees sprouted new shoots.

Spring has come, but this spring day is different from the past. The warm wind from the south to the north is overturned by the power of a legend. The hot wind from the northern ural plain mixed with the cold and humid spring rain goes against the law of thousands of years and returns to the hergamos plain in the center of the Empire. It has not even stopped, They even came to the banter mountains on the border between the Western Hills and the Empire.

The Imperial Emperor watched the rain fall on his head, and the torrential rain hit the roof of the watchtower and the expanding magic base. There were more and more buildings on the surface of the production base of the void warship named "Apocalypse". They were burning tons of magic crystal all the time, emitting colorful smoke, The rain shot down the smoke to the ground, forming pools of various colors.

The color light of magic is flowing on the ground like a rainbow. Israel looks at the earth and his empire. His eyes can sweep the territory of the whole empire, from the southern fortress black forest to the Arctic ice sheet sea. If Israel wants to, he can see it all, whether it's Druids in the forest or villagers living in seclusion in the mountains, He knows all about it.

There was only one thing that he couldn't see clearly. People's hearts.

In such a rainstorm, most of the hardworking citizens will not go out. Only those who have to work outside for special reasons and the merchants who deliver goods and materials will grit their teeth and March in the rain. But in addition, there is another kind of people who especially like this kind of weather... No, they like any kind of weather, as long as it is not a safe sunny day.

Israel could see that a caravan carrying purified Kaman white grass powder was on its way in the rainstorm in the southern mountain area of the hergamos plain. Four guards were wearing leather coats and riding horses to guard in the rain. The Dragon chariot protected in the center ignored the wind and rain and strode across the rugged mountain road, Run towards the city which is not far away - but just when you can see the lights in the city from a distance, accompanied by the sound of knowing and demanding from the woods on both sides of the road, dozens of people with scattered clothes and ragged weapons jump out of the whistle. They charge towards the horses and carts with laughter, and there is madness hidden in their numb eyes.

The bandit never cares about the weather when there is a game worth trying.

For decades since he ascended the throne, Israel thought that he knew a lot about the evils in his empire. Whether it was blackmail for the elderly, gangs extorting protection money, or nobles oppressing civilians and seizing virgins, he had seen a lot of them. Even in the army, there were villains who pressed the death report and drank the blood of the soldiers, It's not the first time for his majesty to be executed, but this series of actions seem meaningless. Brushing away a layer of haze on the surface of the Empire, we can see more darkness surging in the depths - lust, customs, hidden rules, blood, human relations, interests... The whole system seems to be a hotbed of crime, even if one batch is killed, there are the second batch and the third batch, world without end.

Human society is not perfect, it just lingers between being able to continue and being able to live. Ordinary kingdoms change once every several hundred years, and the legendary Empire inevitably declines occasionally. It is naturally full of scars, so it is impossible to grow any perfect flowers.

In those years when he could only gradually die because of his secret injury, Israel was decadent. He sat on his throne with a bitter smile and looked down at his ministers and lords. The war against the orcs was over. Naturally, those new nobles who rose because of the war did not want to lose their power. They bribed ministers and even princes, Through various means, he wanted to launch a war against the western mountains or the eastern plains.

——Let them go. The original emperor thought so. He didn't have time to revise the Empire step by step. He didn't even care where the Empire would go in the future. Anyway, he had eradicated the orcs and sent the monster, who had been fighting with the Empire for 400 years, to hell. Israel realized that he had done enough to bear the name of a great emperor. There was no such great emperor in the whole continent of mirov hundreds of years ago.

But now, March 10, 837.

Israel's eyes twinkle with divine brilliance. Behind him, a series of Rune data are reflected. The light blue data stream surges like a waterfall, as if it is calculating and correcting. Israel watches the bandits thousands of miles away rush to the panic caravan, and then reaches out his right hand.

So, with the crazy surge of Rune data, his will turned into the light of heaven's punishment, making the brilliant golden light across the space, becoming a fiery arrow hotter than the scorching sun. Thousands of fiery arrows pierced the clouds, and with the rain coming down by air, all the bandits turned into flying ash at the moment when they were too late to convey their pain.Looking at the scene, Israel's mouth turned up.

He found that he could do more.

Not far away, the intense fluctuation of time and space, accompanied by the dark blue light suddenly appeared behind, two huge breath of shudder came. At this moment, the whole "Apocalypse" production line stopped for a moment, because all the magic power within hundreds of miles was frozen because of the arrival of the two, and no longer obeyed the orders of users.

But Israel did not turn. He knew who they were and what their purpose was. Israel knew that one of the two men behind him was his most loyal and intimate comrade in arms, and the other was the most worthy friend.

"Teacher Nostradamus, Radcliffe."

Israel stood at the top of the observation tower, watching everything in the distance: "my dream is about to come true."

"Your dream, is not to lead everyone out of the world, to the other side of the sea of stars."

Monotonous and emotionless, as if it were the sound of iron rubbing against iron. This is the voice of Joshua van Radcliffe, the successor of sages and a god given hero. His voice is as boring and emotionless as himself. With the aura of fear that can make ordinary people tremble and bow down, he only has a little emotion when he is fighting and getting along with his family, It's like a person, not a god of death.

"What, the battleship of the void?" Joshua's voice sounded relaxed, and as he approached, he finally came behind Israel. To this, his majesty sneered: "with who to the other side? A bunch of swindlers, robbers, thieves, cowards and sadists? It's not my dream to walk out of the world with a bunch of lunatics. "

"Step up to heaven, such a pure dream I will not do, I will only slowly toward the goal I want, even if it is to exhaust my life."

At the beginning, Israel's voice was still a little emotional, but the more he went to the back, the more firm his voice became. At the end, his voice was as calm as usual. However, no matter who felt that the surrounding air was gradually heating and boiling, and an indescribable momentum was spreading around the Emperor: "thank you for everything, Radcliffe, without you, there would be no present Empire, no Apocalypse base, no information terminal and magic Net - naturally, there would be no present all these and me. "

"You once told me, why don't I start to reform immediately? Because I know that before the time comes, when one group of people is washed down, another group of people will come forward. Evil is like a reed. If you break it, you will grow higher next year. The strong will naturally oppress the weak, just as the same class must oppress another class. "

"Now, then, is it time?" The voice of the soldier's doubts came.

"It's time." Israel nodded slowly.

"Let him see what we have achieved these days."

Nostradamus, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly opened his mouth. He stood beside the emperor with a smile. Then he took out a strange steel bar made of unknown metal from his arms. Joshua could see that it was half of a prism. On the other side, Israel also took out the same steel bar from his hand, He took the other half from the old mage.

——This is the information terminal! But why is it so big?! Looking at this scene, the soldier suddenly reacted.

At the moment of Joshua's enlightenment, Israel joined hands and combined the two into one. Suddenly, a light blue light came out from the lower end of the prism. It was a data stream composed entirely of runes, and the amount of information was so large that even Joshua could not analyze it in an instant.

Israel's calm voice could be heard: "Joshua, watch it."

"It's time for change."

Suddenly, the tower at the center of the Apocalypse base began to shake, and the steel plate on the top of the tower began to rotate and bulge outward, forming a high platform. A deep channel emerged in the center of the platform, and a beam of blue light, like a prism, came out from the bottom of the channel, blending with the light of the "key".

[information terminal, No. 00-00, the highest administrator's authority intervenes and begins to implement the No. 1 plan

[top management - code name Israel, energy fluctuation determined, soul resonance determined]

[plan start -]

May you shine on the world like the sun

The metal prisms in Israel's hands have been liquefied under the impact of high-intensity energy, but this is not destruction. On the contrary, it seems to return to its original shape. The silver metal with light blue light is surging and changing in the emperor's hands, just like an unpredictable human heart.

A huge roar came, and everything was ready. The towering lookout tower seemed to have a life like shape. Under the operation of the already confirmed array program, the three legends watched the huge magic power machine begin to deform, accompanied by the noise caused by the friction between steel and steel, as well as the micro sound produced by magic resonance, The lower part of the lookout tower is separated from the huge steel base, it is suspended in the air under the support of huge magic, and it is constantly rising towards the high altitude.Joshua and Nostradamus stood at the top of the constant observation tower. They didn't care about the rising tower. Their eyes still stayed on the person in the center of the tower. At this moment, the emperor spread out his hand, and the liquid metal in his hand began to float slowly, and then spread rapidly in mid air, turning into a throne that seemed to be composed of light, Israel watched as the throne slowly fell to the ground, inlaid on a platform that had long been reserved for it. The emperor took his throne.

Then he gave his first command: "launch full detection."

Yes, top management

The voice without emotion answered him with pure information language, and the next moment, with the invisible energy wave sweeping through every part of the Empire, countless light curtains unfolded in front of Israel's eyes.

Full of doubts, Joshua opened his eyes wide. Together with Nostradamus, he watched the light curtain.

From Yongge lake to Thomas gorge, from tataros plateau to the great AEAS mountains, every region and city in the northwest of the empire can be seen. Even the mountain villages and the dwarves under the ground are not missing. Soldiers can even see that the dwarves grazing moles are digging a passage to the deep underground, And it's just a short distance from another underground cavity.

In the southern fortress, the hot and humid air from the North has not yet arrived, but the dark clouds have emerged in the north of the sky. The military and civilian families in the fortress are in a hurry to take back everything on the clothes rack, so that the clothes that are hard to be washed will not be wet by the dirty rain. In the southeast swamp, the thick gray clouds are moving slowly, just like the cloud mountains, There is lightning shuttling through it, and the residents of the tribe are used to it and continue their daily life.

On the eastern coast of the Empire, the sea of Shiwan harbor reflects the golden afterglow of the setting sun, which is as moving as the purest real gold. The waves are stacked layer upon layer, and the stars gradually appear on the sea level. On the distant island, the light of Lighthouse is guiding the passing merchant ships to avoid the dark reef and smoothly go to their respective directions.

Every corner of the Empire, whether famous or unknown, whether there are people or no one, even the Hessian Jedi, where only Warcraft is rampant, or even the commercial city full of people, has a large number of light screens reflecting every change. In the holy city of three mountains, the emperor's capital, the Queen with silver hair frowns, and she feels a familiar sight, But I don't know where it came from. In the castle of the ancient goblin Island, there is nothing above the empty column of elements. The goblin who was originally stationed here has already left here and wandered around the empire with a young man.

Swordsmen who travel with their families, dragon maidens who roam in the Beidi mountains, and the first team who finish the task conscientiously while the soldiers are away, stroll in the city with silver haired maidens, buy Artificial Intelligence of miscellaneous books... Familiar and unfamiliar, everything is in these endless light screens.

"I am not a sage, nor a saint. Nostradamus and I know that opening up the wisdom of the people is the first step to transform society. But before this first step, I must smash all classes, which is almost impossible, because people are doomed to be superior and inferior, oppressed and oppressed."

On the throne, Israel gradually became indifferent, and his voice with many echoes sounded. His voice was cold, and strong words appeared: "I've thought about it for a long time, but I can only think of the only way."

"That's me as the oppressor - the only one."

The light of divinity was beating in Israel's eyes. The emperor's deep pupils began to turn into pure light. At this time, his eyes turned into two golden flames, burning all the people who looked at him like the sun. Israel sat on the throne and looked at all the light curtains. He whispered: "thank you, Radcliffe, You've brought the magic net, you've brought the virtual battleship production line, and we've worked together to create the final step of this plan - a surveillance network covering the entire empire. "

At this moment, Joshua also understood. He looked up at the void, and his pupils were shining with silver light. He saw countless Rune chains rising from all parts of the Empire, and then went to a place in the void. It was the empty combat ship No.1, which had just been completed by the Empire. Israel named it and the whole production base "Apocalypse.", The Apocalypse has a huge core terminal, which receives the detection array signals scattered all over the Empire, and then transfers to the throne of Israel.

At that time, the soldier didn't know why he called it, but now, he understood.

"No wonder the server always crashes from time to time... There are several legendary strongmen strengthening and repairing day and night. It turns out that you are experimenting with them."

Joshua murmured. He turned his head and looked at Israel. "Nostradamus must be your accomplice. Banill and William, they know that too?"

"After all, I funded the construction of information terminals. They just followed their professional ethics and didn't ask me what I was doing."Israel nodded slightly to Joshua in apology for concealment, but then he reached out to the light curtain and said softly, "look, Radcliffe."

"These ubiquitous evils."

Following Israel's words, Joshua looked at the light curtain. At this moment, the light curtain on the surface changed into countless different images. At the first sight of them, the soldier clenched his fist subconsciously, and his uncontrollable anger rose from his heart.

He saw the evil hidden under the whole empire, covered by the appearance of prosperity.

They are the bandits who roam the wilderness, plunder caravans and single travelers. It is because of them that countless missing people on the list are born. Countless old people have lost their children, countless children have lost their fathers, caravans after caravans have gone bankrupt because of them, and thousands of people have lost their families.

They are the adventurers who hide behind the harmonious smile and join the old forest squadron in the wilderness. They pretend to be kind-hearted outer elephants and take the inexperienced and promising new people to the wild. Then they kill them one by one in their sleep. They reap other people's dreams and enrich their own pockets, The blood in their hands can't make them feel guilty at all. It can only make them laugh scornfully.

In addition, there are nobles who hide in the secret room and think they are unknown. They have tried all kinds of stimulation and tasted all kinds of delicacies. Demons grow up in their hearts. After hunting wild animals and demons can no longer satisfy these people, they turn their eyes to their own clan, so every month, every week, even every day, One or two young girls will disappear in a certain slum, and a group of people in a certain mountain village will be taken away by masked knights. Their end is that they will become "novel" materials in the bloody basement of the castle to satisfy the tyrannical desire of these people that can't be described in words.

"The gangs who sell human beings, the merchants who train female slaves, the nobles who persecute the common people for pleasure, and the mages who are interested in dissecting human beings... They think they are hidden and have protective umbrellas, so they can do whatever they want."

In the name of usury, the villains who drag the crying girls out of the house are mocking the folly of the family; The slave merchants who used magic potions to destroy the slave mind and reshape their personality were full of excitement; The peasants who flogged the territory like to hear the noble's cheering voice of broken bones, adding strength to their hands by the way; On the experimental platform, the magician, who did not use any paralyzing agent but simply wanted to see others with extreme panic eyes, showed an inhuman smile.

Israel's indifferent voice echoed in the lookout tower, and his majesty, sitting on the throne, gave a sneer: "but now, it's all in my eyes - the laws of the Empire - I will try them."

He stretched out his right hand and held it in the air. Suddenly, with the surging energy fluctuation, every evil derived place in the light curtain ushered in its own natural punishment - the hot arrow of fire fell from the sky, killing all the bandits, all the villains, the black gang's nest, and many numb bystanders turned into a sea of fire in shock, The slave merchant's headquarters collapsed in the sky fire, and the noble's residence was demolished under the precise cutting laser irradiation, including the noble himself. The magician in the wizard tower ignited spontaneously, and became a black carbon in the eyes of the next experimental body that had not yet been disintegrated.

Countless evildoers are still watching God in panic before they die. They are praying and repenting their sins to God. However, the emperor's anger will not be weakened by this powerless repentance. The dead should be like withered grass and turn into ashes in the fire.

"Thirty days."

After all this, suddenly, Israel said in a loud voice: "as long as the materials are enough, the Apocalypse base can produce a class II air cruiser, which can carry four high-energy Magic Crystal Cluster guns and act as a transit station to carry my strength. In 30 days, I will establish a monitoring and strike network covering the whole empire, As long as it's a crime that can be seen, I can send a ship, or directly suppress it. "

"The ultimate dystopia..."

But at this time, Joshua was whispering such a word to himself. Because he spoke it in the language of the earth, neither Nostradamus, who was smiling and watching all this, nor Israel, who was calm, understood it. Just when they were in doubt, the soldier closed his eyes slightly, Then he opened his eyes to Israel and asked in a deep voice, "is that your choice? Israel, oppress the whole empire with absolute force? Use the information terminal to monitor everyone? "

"Yes, that's my choice."

Without hesitation, he replied that Israel showed a very firm expression. He opened his eyes wide and looked at Joshua: "there will be no more crime, no more oppression, the bandits will disappear, the gangs will all go to prison, and all the nobles who maltreat and kill civilians will be punished by me, Any criminal who attempts to murder will be burned to ashes by me - I am the legendary strong Israel, and I have the ability to do so! ""There will be no more classes in this world. The common people can live in peace, the caravan can not worry about peace making and robbers, the upright can hold their heads high, and the despicable can only go to hell. That's what I want!"

Joshua gazed at Israel's face: he wanted to find out even a trace of selfish desire, but he did not, the emperor did not have any selfish desire from the inside to the outside, his words and deeds were the same, what he said and did, and there was no flaw in it - what if it was really what he thought from the bottom of his heart?

"This is absolute power."

The soldier took a deep breath, and many thoughts welled up in his heart. For the first time, Joshua didn't know what he thought. His reason told him that absolute power would lead to absolute corruption, and Israel was no exception. But on the other hand, he believed in the will of a legendary strong man. Israel said that he could achieve eternal justice, Then Radcliffe is willing to believe that he can do it.

Is it contradictory? No, trust itself is unreasonable.

"Teacher Nostradamus, Radcliffe."

As if feeling Joshua's complex emotions, Israel slowed down his voice. He looked at the light curtain in front of him and said in a voice with many echoes: "I know that this absolute power is not a good thing."

"But now, I do feel the justice of power."

Sitting on the "Apocalypse seat" which is completely condensed by the information terminal, Israel looks down at the earth and his empire from the observation tower which is 12000 meters away from the ground. The surging divine light comes out from the emperor. Israel slowly closes his eyes, and a huge, The black ring emblem, like a gear, appeared behind him.

It's the emblem of the God of power and justice.

In boundless heaven, some great will vibrates slightly.

"The awakened one..." he murmured, gazing at the world with complicated eyes, but then he shifted his attention and continued to immerse himself in the process of merging the boundless heaven.

On the other hand, over the macrov, East banter plateau, Israel opened his eyes again. His eyes burned like the sun, releasing a glow that could not be seen directly.

"I won't leave this seat until the day I expected it to come."

The emperor said, "I will watch this country."

"Until it becomes what I think it is."
