Blue Sword

On the outskirts of Solomon City, a huge anti-magic magnetic field tower was re-erected.

The scorching dark blue electric arc, following the signal command from the command podium, began to jump along the layers of coils around the tower, flashing a beautiful and deep halo.

The anti-magic magnetic field is turned on.

At that moment, Nora, who was sitting on the command podium far away, found that her spirituality was obviously suppressed.

"There are 4 levels of anti-magic magnetic field. Each level can reduce the upper limit of the level within the coverage area by 10 levels." At the railing of the command podium, Innocent looked at the huge tower in the distance and said calmly, "Currently we are turning on Gear 2.”

"There are more than 400 such towers, covering the entire Italy and the peninsula. Any extraordinary person who enters here will be completely spiritually suppressed. Since the upper limit of the environmental level has become level 0, the extraordinary person inside cannot get it. Any spiritual supplement will soon make you look like an ordinary person.”

"Is this change permanent?" Nora asked cautiously.

"No." Innocent sighed, "It's just that I can't use my ability temporarily."

"In fact, as long as the next demonic tide rises, all the internal coils of these magnetic field towers will be destroyed. By then, all the evil lurking in Italy will burst out."

"There are still four high tide periods before the demonic tide reaches its peak at Level 40. In other words, the Holy See will go through four such dangerous periods, each one more dangerous than the last."

"And you have seen the price of our failure in previous mutations."

"Alas." Nora didn't know what to say. She thought of the helpless people she saw in the changes in the ectoplasm tree. If Mi'er hadn't managed to save them...

The Spiritual Tree itself is equivalent to a demigod-level existence, and as the level limit of the Demonic Tide continues to rise, there will only be more and more such demigods.

How will the world deteriorate at that time?

"When the level of the demon tide reaches its highest level, everyone can embark on the road to becoming a god, and there will be no peace in this world." Innocent leaned his arm on the railing, "In the eyes of the gods, human beings Just like ants, they can be completely despised or even ignored."

"And what kind of damage will a war between gods cause to the world of ordinary people? Even a fool can imagine it."

"However, those gods don't care at all." The Pope stared at the magnetic field tower in the distance, "How arrogant this is."

"Is there really no other way?" Nora asked worriedly.

"There have been a total of six demonic tides rising in history." Innocent said calmly, "Almost every rising tide brought huge disorder and chaos."

"Needless to say, the first and second times. The first rising cycle of the demon tide knocked the technological civilization that mankind is proud of into dust, and degenerated from the interstellar colonial era to the Iron Age; the second time destroyed our self-protection With his ability, he almost fell into the situation of being captured and enslaved by a foreign race.”

"The third demonic tide occurred at the end of the Second Age, destroying the splendid culture of ancient Siris. The fifth demonic tide destroyed the Western Solomon Empire; the sixth demonic tide, the Frankish Empire fell into pieces, and the entire continent was like a piece of scattered sand."

"Wait a minute." Nora suddenly realized something was wrong, "Where is the fourth demonic wave?"

"The fourth demonic tide occurred nearly two thousand years ago and is recognized as the cause of the end of the ancient Solomon Republic." Innocent said leisurely, "However, compared with the changes in other eras, from the Third to the Fourth Epoch, the entire continent But there weren’t too many wars.”

"Because...Caesar the Great, right?" Nora thought thoughtfully.

"Yes." Innocent admitted happily, "Caesar was born at the end of the Third Age. When he was 5 years old, the first wave of magic began to rise."

"As for how he stood out among the extraordinary people and eventually became the world's 'number one extraordinary person' and 'first citizen', these are all recorded in the history books and you can look them up at will."

"But what we need to consider is that if the rising tide of demons will break the existing order, then why can't we hope that a powerful transcendent will emerge to lead the Holy See and mankind in chaos and rebuild on the ruins of the old order? What about the new order?”

"Just like what Caesar did, he suppressed all his competitors with overwhelming force, and then led the ancient Solomon from a republic to an empire - of course we have to admit that moving from democracy to dictatorship is a regression of the political system, but it is It was most in line with Solomon's national conditions at that time. After all, you can't expect a superior extraordinary person to give up power to ordinary people."

"However, even someone as powerful as Caesar died in an assassination." Nora said, "He ultimately failed to become the emperor of the empire and see the new order he established with his own eyes."

"At that time, Caesar's tendency to lose control was already very strong. It is said that his sanity was so low that he experienced 3-4 phantom attacks every day. His two deputy generals, Mark Antony and Lepidus, could only extrapolate.' He is suffering from severe epilepsy." Innocent patted the railing, "Any power has a corresponding price to pay."

"Are you afraid?" The pope's eyes turned and fell on Nora's face.

"No." Nora shook her head slowly, "From the moment I set foot on this road, I knew I could no longer look back."

"Miss Nora," Innocent whispered, "Actually, the Holy See has always been paying attention to you."

"Of course, it was Raphael who noticed the changes in you first. He felt that you...had great potential."

"Potential?" Nora said in surprise.

"Yes, potential." Innocent turned his head and turned his gaze back to the infinite horizon.

"The potential to be the Caesar of this age."

…become, Caesar?

By the time Nora came to her senses again from her wild thoughts, she had already returned to the door of Licinius Building.

Order in the city was quickly restored. The news of the opening of the anti-magic magnetic field seemed to have given the whole city a shot in the arm. Even many businesses couldn't wait to open their doors despite the fact that the changes had just subsided.

When she returned home, Nora saw Silla and Mia sitting at the desk by the window, studying hard like students, with a lot of books placed beside the table.

"Ask," she called.

"Oh, you're back." Asik lay on the rocking chair and raised his eyes lazily.

"Where's Paige? Why didn't she help you rock the chair?" Nora smiled and joked with him, "Where are the others?"

"They went shopping again." Ask felt helpless.

"Then Sheila and Mia, what are you doing..."

"They are voluntarily putting in extra time and effort to keep up with the team's average progress," Aske said.

Nora noticed Mia rolling her eyes subtly.

"Is this really useful?" She came up behind Asik and started to help him push the rocking chair, asking with a smile.

"You are also a person who has studied in college. Do you think the surprise review during exam week will be helpful for the final exam?" Ask asked lazily.

"It would be great if the induction law ritual could be as simple as an exam." Nora said with emotion.

"That's why you need to put in more effort, right?" Ask raised his arm and pointed to the desk and chairs piled with books behind Sheila, "Do you see that?"

"Don't you want to condense the laws of evolution? I have found relevant books for you from the library. Go ahead."

Nora:………………

Are you a devil!

She originally wanted to talk to Asker about what the Pope said today, "Caesar the Great established a new order." However, since the head of the regiment gave the order, Nora, who was designated as the "next Caesar" The young lady could only sit down behind Sheila quite speechlessly and began to review the books that Aske had moved from the library.

"Origin of Species", "The Selfish Gene", "Guns, Germs and Steel"... She couldn't help but droop her expression and frown.

With so many books, how long will it take to read them? !

When Eleanor and the others returned home, they saw that the sky outside the window had turned dark. With the bright light on the ceiling, the three girls were sitting at the desk and working hard, just like the students who were reviewing for the exam.

"What are they..." Eleanor asked in surprise.

"I'm trying to catch up with you." Asik said while lying on the rocking chair with his eyes closed.

"Uh." Eleanor was speechless, while Paige ran to Sheila excitedly and said proudly:

"Do you want to sense the law? Ask me! I am very experienced in this area!"

"Your experience is that you burst into tears holding Aske's body, wishing you could die for him immediately." Sheila lowered her head and took notes alone without raising her head.

Paige:………………

She was left speechless by Sheila, and could only look back at Aske for help.

"Stop showing off, Peggy." Ask was also speechless. As a loser, don't try to mislead others to work hard, okay? "Your promotion experience, well, is rather unique and has basically no reference value."

"Ask, are you praising my talent?" Peggy said with a smile, came behind Ask and helped him push up the rocking chair.

This guy was actually aware of his cheating, which left Asik with almost nothing to complain about, so he could only remain silent.

"When will they learn?" Eleanor sat down next to her and asked Aske, "Is this really useful?"

"I'll tell you quietly." Asik whispered, "It probably only has a psychological effect."

"Then you still lie to them to study like this?" Eleanor couldn't believe it.

"Psychological effects are also useful." Asker said calmly, "Don't forget that this is idealism. As long as you firmly believe that you are deepening your understanding of a certain law, it will gradually become a fact."

Eleanor:………………

"Mi'er." Ask turned around and said, "Let's see in the next few days, is it possible for them to sense the law ceremony?"

Mi'er was studying the flowers on the high chair by the wall. After hearing this, she observed the world line:

"I haven't found a similar world line. The probability should be less than 1%."

"So are you sure it really works?" Eleanor couldn't laugh or cry.

"An Xin." Ask glared at her, "Do you expect anyone to be able to sense the law in a few days? You know who it was at the beginning, who spent a year just learning the Unyielding Holy Sword?"

"My extraordinary swordsmanship!" Eleanor's face turned red and she defended, "My extraordinary swordsmanship and laws... can they be the same?"

"Ask, I also want to learn extraordinary swordsmanship." Hidrifa said, "But I am accustomed to using a battle axe. Is there any extraordinary axe-skill that you can learn for me?"

"I learned extraordinary swordsmanship very quickly. Is it your fault, Eleanor?" Peggy fully explained what "if you don't know how to speak, speak less".

The three girls were chirping and noisy, and the other three girls were immersed in reading by the window. Only Medea and Mier stayed quietly beside them, studying flowers, and discussing something in low voices from time to time.

Huh? Asker suddenly wondered, when did the relationship between the two become so good?

At this moment, Vesta's voice suddenly sounded in the room.

"Your Excellency Ask, the Holy See has sent you an urgent message."

"What's the matter?" Asked.

"The Norman navy in Sicily launched an attack on Calabria a few minutes ago." Vesta said quickly, "A demigod from the Hauteville family was confirmed to have participated in this attack. war."

"They're starting to invade Italy."
