After the Lord of the Abyss awakens

At this time, the military zone.

"General Ronal, are you sure?"

"Even if he is not the Lord of the Abyss, he is still a terrifying existence of the same level."

"This is strange. It is impossible for Priest Xilin to bring such a dangerous being to the imperial city. According to what you just said, it may also be that that person has a special physique."

Legion Commander Fili pointed his finger at the solid wood table with sharp eyes, as if he didn't seem to believe Ronal's report.

In the past six months, Ronal had reported many unusual incidents. They later sent people to investigate and found that nine out of ten cases were misunderstandings. A year ago, Ronal retired from the front line due to injury. His perception was no longer as sharp as before. He also suffered from post-war depression and was sensitive and worried. Therefore, he had the title of general, but his subordinates had no real power, let alone the force they could mobilize. .

Feili continued: "The Abyss Monarch I contracted with just entered the Imperial City. If the person you are talking about is the Abyss Monarch, then the Imperial City cannot be so calm and a fight would have started earlier."

Ronald choked, recalling the appearance of the black-haired young man in his mind. The other person is very friendly, looks harmless, and doesn't look like a dangerous person at all based on his appearance.

But if you said he was an ordinary person, Ronal wouldn't believe it.

Ronal thought: "Can I contact Priest Xilin?"

Feili shook his head, "No one in Dawn Church knows where Priest Xilin has gone."

This is not uncommon. Priest Xilin is a well-known adventurer. Although he is a clergy worker, he often leaves the imperial city and goes to extremely dangerous places for several months or even a year.

Feili reminded: "You and I both know that Priest Xilin is not a person without eyesight, and it is impossible not to recognize the Abyss Lord."

Secondly, there is no need for strong people to disguise themselves. If the Abyss Monarch wants to come to the Imperial City, he doesn’t need to use Priest Xilin or others. You can’t stop him if he comes directly. The city protection magic can't stop monsters above level 80 at all.

After hearing this, Ronald gradually calmed down. Although he was still puzzled, he tried to communicate with his contracted demon, but there was no response at all.

Feili said: "I understand that you care about the Imperial City, but things at that level are beyond our control. If the other party really had any thoughts about the empire, something would have happened to the empire long ago."

Ronal nodded and thought: "Will he be a pro-human Abyss Lord?"

This is very important. Being close to humans means being able to communicate and even sign contracts.

Currently, the Os Empire has signed contracts with three abyss monarchs, and its national power ranks 45th among all human countries.

The more powerful external powers you sign with, the stronger your country will be.

If they can sign another contract with an abyss monarch, the empire's strength will definitely reach a higher level and enter the top thirty. In order to enhance its overall national strength, the empire has been actively cooperating with pro-human extraterrestrial forces.

Ronal lowered his head, feeling uneasy.

Feili saw through everything and said straightly: "The problem now is to find a way to contact the other party and release good intentions without the other party being disturbed."

Ronal thought for a moment and nodded.

At this time, the wind was howling outside, the clouds parted, and beams of sunlight came in, making the hall white.

Feili turned around, his left and right faces clearly visible, looking in the direction of the tower and said: "Go and investigate first. I will explain this matter to the empress."

When he heard the word "empress", Ronald's eyes flashed with awe, and he said: "Yes!"

After Ronald left, Fili frowned slightly and said to himself: "If that person really exists beyond the standard, it is impossible for Eliog not to be able to sense it, but Eliog didn't seem to have any reaction... It's hard to say ”

The military affairs have been busy recently. Whether it is expedition or guard, all the sergeants are also tired. If there is an abyss monarch who is not friendly to humans, it will be troublesome.

"Thousands of years have passed, and human civilization has made some progress, but it is still far incomparable to the civilization created by gods."

Fili knew it.

For example, humans must build royal cities on the land, but the races created by gods can open up cities in the sky and fly naturally with their natural wings.

No matter how tall a tower humans build on the ground, they still cannot reach the sky through the clouds.

In history, there was a human kingdom that did this. It was considered to challenge the power of the gods. Not only the tower was destroyed, but the entire kingdom was also completely destroyed in one day.

To be precise, it was not within a day, but within a breath. Before people could react, they felt the temperature suddenly rise. When they were about to look outside, they were instantly evaporated by the huge and terrifying energy.

It is said that there are still holes left in that continent after the divine strike.

The Age of Gods is simply not a day for humans to live. It is precarious. Not to mention humans, even the goblin race, which is slightly stronger than humans, cannot escape the fate of being destroyed.

Nowadays, when people live in times of peace and are wary of danger, they can’t help but think of the past.

Fili lowered his head and turned his hands to see. The devil's contract was deeply imprinted like a tattoo, which was both a threat and a sense of security.

Using abnormalities to deal with abnormalities is the second most important means of survival for humans after learning to use tools. The complex human history is the history of human survival.

Entering the human era, it seems that the dawn has arrived and we are about to enter the glory of mankind.

However, Philly knew that the current human civilization was still too fragile.

"Without the protection of the abyss, once the gods in the sky come back, the future will be unimaginable."

Feili looked serious and said, "It's even possible that they are already making plans."

The frequent A-level abnormality warnings these days are a sign that the storm is coming.

The only good thing is that the brave man is temporarily in the imperial city.

Feili organized his thoughts, calmed down his emotions, and hurried to the palace after a while, not forgetting to remind everyone to be more vigilant on the way.

Fili is well known as the leader of the intellectual faction.

His low pressure certainly affected other soldiers.

They were all aware of the current threat, and they all had serious expressions on their faces as they passed by.

Some people look at the sky from time to time, lest there be a humanoid or monster with wings appearing on it.

The old soldier even said: "Be careful of angels."

The white clouds are long and windy from time to time. Under the gloomy weather, there seems to be a faint atmosphere of instability.

at the same time.

In the library of the Brave Memorial Hall, Hughes was looking through the biographies of the Brave One by one.

Seeing his once vivid experiences turned into black and white words in a book, Hughes felt melancholy.

However, fortunately, he did not gain anything. Roger's biography happened to include an incident.

——"The brave Roger was once seriously injured and on the verge of death. The system collapsed and became unresponsive. After three months of training, the system finally returned to normal and responded."

Xiusi paused. Judging from this passage, it seems that the game system is automatically repaired, and it will be useless if you do anything.

So I can only wait?

Hughes took another look at the gray game panel and felt as if time had stopped at the moment of collapse, with no sign of recovery at all.

The game system is essentially a creation of magic. The way it looks now is probably because the inner magic logic is broken.

what to do? I don't know such fine magic.

Hughes thought for a while and continued to turn the pages, thinking that there might be other ways to look at it.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of books hitting the ground.

Hughes turned his head in the direction of the sound and saw the bookshelf tipping over and a large pile of books falling from the bookshelf.

At the same time, someone appeared in an instant, raised a hand, and used magic power to control the bookshelf and slowly push it back to its normal position. Then, the magic still wrapped around the books, arranging them neatly one by one.

After finishing, she seemed to notice Hughes's gaze, raised a pair of blue eyes, and looked straight over.

Just looking at her appearance, her whole body wrapped up and wearing a hood has already revealed her identity.

This is the unique attire of a magician, and the fact that her robe is an elegant purple color is enough to prove that she is a magician of at least level 50.

He looks to be in his thirties or forties, with blond hair and white skin, which is the most common feature of the Oss Empire.

Hughes sighed in his heart, the magician's dress has never changed since ancient times, and you can understand it at a glance.

Probably because his eyes were too dull, the other person tilted his head and didn't quite understand what he was thinking.

After a few minutes.

They started chatting in the library.

The magician Xili is a friendly and enthusiastic person, and she told Hughes that she came here for a breakthrough in magic.

Hughes took the opportunity to ask questions about the system.

Xili: "How to restore the system magic?"

Hughes: "Yeah, I want to know."

Xili shook her head and said, "I don't know. This is a very ancient magic that has been lost long ago. I didn't expect anyone to ask such a detailed question."

"Yeah?"

Hughes thought that looking for a magician couldn't solve the problem. Isn't this system really completely broken? Without a game system, can I still be considered a player?

And Xili said: "Although I don't know what system magic looks like, I know that the essence of any magic is mental power and the control of mental power. As long as you control this, you may be able to restore magic."

Hughes was stunned for a moment and suddenly realized.

Ms. Xili seemed very satisfied with his learning attitude and continued: "Magic almost never progresses. It reaches perfection at the beginning. The basic logic of magic in different eras will not be much different."

There's actually more to it than just magic when it comes to "not being able to progress." In this world, humans have almost no ability to create new knowledge, and they have to look outside to obtain new knowledge.

Hughes didn't care at all at first, thinking it was just a game setting. After awakening, he realized that this setting was too outrageous.

In order to inhibit human development, the gods deprived humans of their ability to think upward, especially their creativity. Just like the electrical revolution that is currently in full swing, the knowledge used is not derived from human beings' own thinking and experience, but is brought back from subspace by the expeditionary force.

As a Blue Star person, Hughes really couldn't imagine this situation. Humanity here is difficult in every sense of the word.

"Thank you."

He thanks Celie.

Xili smiled and said generously: "It's a small matter. I'm glad I can help you."

They chatted for a while, and then Xili said she had something to do and left.

Hughes stayed there thoughtfully, repeating the words "spiritual power" repeatedly, trying to use the magician's method of deep meditation to drive the system in his brain.

He didn't know that outside the Brave Memorial Hall, Roger turned his head and met Eliog's eyes.

The two sides stared at each other speechlessly, as if this was not the first time they had faced off like this.

Eliog turned his eyes and stared at the memorial hall, feeling a strong feeling in his heart.

other side.

Hughes closed his eyes, concentrated his energy, and tried to awaken the remnants of power lingering in his mind.

His mental power was undoubtedly very powerful. It didn't take long for an ordinary magician to successfully sneak into his mind. It only took him a few minutes to do it, and he felt an indescribable sense of understanding in his heart.

Then something suddenly opened. The gray panel in front of him suddenly lit up, and a large string of characters jumped out.

【bite! Congratulations on restarting the game]

[Dear players, beloved heroes, long time no see]

The notifications were full of constantly refreshing reminders.

But Xius didn't care about that. As soon as the game system restarted, he immediately opened the creation sequence panel.

He wanted to know how his cubs were doing!
