Lord of War

Hina was standing just outside the gate of the laboratory, with a calm smile on her face. After seeing Xiao En coming, she came up to her and said, "Master Xiao En, welcome."

The current Hina is very different from the Hina that Xiao En led to the wild land together.

Unlike her burly rabid bear father, Alfred, Hina has almost perfectly inherited the looks of her beautiful mother - as she grows older now, she not only becomes more and more beautiful Beautiful and charming, with a curvy figure, even the temperament of the body is full of a kind of unspoken maturity and stability, as well as the wildness hidden in this intellectual elegance.

Don't forget, Xina's most proud martial art is spearmanship. Although she is not particularly good at swordsmanship, she can be regarded as relatively proficient.

It's just that perhaps because the blood of the Crypt Frost Spider Queen is becoming more and more active, Hina's skin has become particularly crystal clear - not like ordinary people's white, but more like pure ice crystals. The hair has also turned dark blue, and the long, falling hair looks more like blue crystals that have been shaved into fluff. In addition, under Xiao En's induction, Hina's body also exudes a cold air similar to a force field halo all the time. This is a natural field, and it should be her bloodline innate ability. Sean doesn't know the effect, but what he can be sure of is that Hina's opponent will definitely not want to fight her in this cold range.

"Is everything going well?" Sean asked with a smile.

"You can leave this place to me with confidence." Hina said with a smile. Both her tone and demeanor showed the unique attitude of a legion commander. It is obvious that she has been well trained. Sean has now It is understandable why Stalin would call her Lady Hina.

Although she is also the supreme leader of a legion, and the same position is very important, but apart from Hina's own level of strength being higher than Stalin's, her father is also a ruthless person. So Stalin called Hina a lord, which is not considered a drop in price—in fact, in the existing officer system of the Principality of the Void. Except for a very small number of people, including Stalin, Altdorf, Nock and other veterans, they also have to address Hina as an adult.

"Since you have said so, I believe you will not shame the Worcester family." Sean smiled. Then he looked around casually.

"Those are the guards of the Earth Shadow Demon Blade." Hina keenly noticed that Xiao En's seemingly casual glances happened to be the most critical shadowy corners outside the laboratory door, "Mr. Rotikabas Now he is missing, Mr. Harding is now responsible for protecting Lord Hela and has no time to manage this army, so I will temporarily take over the command of the Earth Shadow Demon Blade....You can rest assured, Mr. Xiao En. The guard strength here is other more than five times the area."

Sean glanced at Hina, then nodded.

Although he doesn't quite know what kind of concept this so-called "five times the strength" is, but he knows that it is very safe here. After all, even the Wings of Condemnation, the strongest elite combat legion in the Principality of the Void, can only stop in front of the gate of this laboratory. One can imagine how powerful the defense force here is.

Of course, Sean knew better that Alfred's Worcester family, after the Void Principality became an empire, would inevitably become one of the most powerful families in the empire.

And this kind of strength may never decline in the next two or three hundred years, if Hina can break through to the legendary realm. Then it can even support the entire family for four or five hundred years.

With such a long buffer period, given that Hina has already awakened her bloodline, the achievements of her descendants may not be so low. After all, Alfred, the founder of the family, and Hina, the second-generation heir, have already created a It's the perfect base.

After all the cold spider guards retreated, Xi Na opened the door of the laboratory, and then everyone entered.

This laboratory has now been reopened, and many people can be seen walking around here.

Sean knew that these people were some "talented people" recruited by Reiss later, basically from any ethnic group and profession. Of course, some of them are "experimental materials" and prisoners of war and death row prisoners who cooperated with the experiment. Whether it is talents or death row prisoners, they were all recruited from the Kingdom of Lane and obtained through secret transactions with the Marquis of Floris.

And in order to ensure that the death row and prisoners of war here will not cause trouble, there are naturally some guards in this laboratory. However, because of the confidentiality of the laboratory, the guards can only be served by people from the Earth Shadow Demon Blade-this is indeed a bit overqualified in Xiao En's opinion. However, considering that if there are any special circumstances, these people can also exert a very strong combat power, so he didn't dictate to Hina's arrangement.

"Master Sean, do you want to visit Miss Reis's experiment?" Hina asked.

"No need." Sean shook his head, "There's no need to notify her, I just came to see the progress of the underground passage."

Hina nodded knowingly. Then he took Xiao En and others to the right.

Along the way, Xiao En soon discovered that the people lurking in the shadows on both sides were stronger than those he met in the underground palace before. If it is said that the members of the Earth Shadow Demon Blade lurking outside the underground palace are generally in the lower rank of silver, then the strength of these guards in the laboratory is basically infinitely approaching the gold realm, and several of them are obviously only the lower rank of gold. The breath of the strong, but it has the embryonic form of the domain.

If it is said that these people only have "fields", then Sean will not be surprised. After all, he also had the concept of "fields" when he was in the golden state. But these people are the real embryonic form of the field, which is a level higher than the field, and it is infinitely close to the concept of the field. Basically, this is equivalent to showing that as long as these people accumulate a period of fighting spirit and grow, they will definitely be able to Step into the sanctuary realm.

Xiao En had some doubts, where did his Void Principality come from so many potential talents.

Is it true that the Qi Yun that Levi and Alisa said before is already nourishing and changing the entire Void Principality?

"Those are members of Mr. Harding's family." Seemingly aware of Sean's doubts, Xina who walked in front explained, "Mr. Harding also seems to have the ability of blood, and he just awakened some time ago.  … I think this should be the natural ability of their bloodline."

Sean nodded and said nothing.

Now, he is really convinced of Levi's and Alisa's theory of national origin and energy. Although he believed it before, he still has some expectations that he doesn't quite understand. After this moment, Sean decided to go back and ask someone to write a letter to William. Let him have to destroy the entire fascist kingdom. Because according to Levi and Alisa, only after a country is completely wiped out, or the royal blood is cut off, can the energy belonging to this country be taken away.

so. Completely destroying a country or ensuring the severance of the royal blood is the only way to annex the heritage.

The Dabion Kingdom has been annexed across the board. Although there are still royal blood left, they are no different from ordinary nobles now, and they don't even have territories. Some of these remnants of the royal family accepted their fate and became nobles with only one title. Started to do some other business, or took refuge in Asuna's Garrod Principality, but some people formed the Darbion Revival Army. Although they didn't dare to trouble the Ryan Kingdom, they made trouble for the Garrod Principality Still often.

Sean knew that as long as Asuna could completely kill all the members of the old royal blood in the Darbion Revival Army, this part of Dabion's final heritage that was not taken away by the Kingdom of Ryan would flow into the Principality of Garrod.

...

Under the leadership of Hina, everyone came to the entrance of the underground world passage that Sean had checked before: the path of the abyss.

But now, this entrance is different from what Sean saw at the beginning.

Above the black hole with a diameter of more than three meters, there is a hexagram magic circle glowing with golden light. On the edge of the hexagram magic circle, there are red magic runes the size of ants. Only in the six triangles of the hexagram, there are red magic runes about the size of a palm. As for the stone walls in the path of the abyss, the originally pitch-black stones also emitted a faint blue light at this time. Although it was not very bright, the light did exist.

This means that the entire path to the abyss has been fully charged.

Several researchers wearing long white gowns that looked like doctors were busy around the entrance of the Abyss Path, and not far from them was a tall one that was more than five meters high. A huge machine with an area of ​​nearly 30 square meters - this thing is the first-generation magic device power machine designed based on the opinions and ideas provided by Sean and the rough design.

It is precisely because this magic device power machine continuously recharges the entire abyss path that this abyss path is reactivated. Of course, at present, it is only to maintain the activation of the path to the abyss, and it has not been fully transmitted. Because the main control magic circle is still being constructed here—what Sean wants is to completely control the path to the abyss in his own hands, so he needs to explode the sealing circle on the opposite side before he can use it here. While rebuilding and activating the main array.

Only in this way, this path to the abyss will fall into Xiao En's control.

But before that, there is one more thing to settle.

That is to burst the sealing magic circle on the opposite side. When our side assumes that the main array of the magic array is transmitted across the axis, a secondary array should also be established on the opposite side. Only in this way can the so-called on-axis energy transmission be able to ensure the spatial stability of this path to the abyss, and only after the spatial stability is ensured can people be transported from the surface to the ground. Otherwise, teleporting in an unstable space channel is simply sending you to death—of course, the super strong can ignore this instability.

It's just that this black technology is slightly different from what Sean imagined.

He knew that the teleportation work was not that simple, especially the opening of the space gap after bursting the sealing array on the opposite side. Originally, Sean thought that he could teleport hundreds of people there, so that he could quickly establish a forward base on the opposite side. After the secondary formation was set up and bridged with the main formation, he could start a steady stream of reinforcements. The world stands firm.

But now, according to the people from the Hayerson Research Institute, the gap opened after bursting the sealing array on the opposite side can only teleport two people, and it will also cause a certain degree of damage to this abyss path, so the follow-up In addition to assuming the main and secondary formations and re-gathering energy, the work also required repairs to the Path of the Abyss. In this way, it is natural when the Path of the Abyss is completely repaired, when will it be possible to continuously transmit troops.

Sean came here on this trip because he wanted to know exactly the answer.

But the result was that after he asked, these researchers from the Hayerson Research Institute told him that the specific situation and repair time must depend on the damage of the Abyss Path. But what they can guarantee is. This emergency repair time can definitely be completed within ten years, and according to the current calculated data results, it should not exceed five years.

Hearing this news, Sean felt extremely depressed.

The complexity and chaos of the underground world. There is also a phenomenon that the degree of bloodiness far exceeds that of any surface people. Without the support of any backup force, if he wanted to survive five years, unless Sean sent two superpowers there, then it would be possible to survive such a difficult period.

However, it is the most difficult period for the Principality of the Void right now. Is it possible for Sean to send two superpowers there?

He is not stupid, it is not that he has not thought of taking advantage of the particularity of the Chaos Portal, but after Sean told the concept of the Chaos Portal to the researchers of the Hayerson Research Institute sent to study the Path of the Abyss, they But cannot give an accurate answer. In other words, unless Sean tries it himself, no one can be sure whether the Chaos Portal can open the teleportation between the surface and the underground.

Even when Sean asked Ulamog, Ulamog didn't know about it, but he really wanted to try it himself.

Sean was very disappointed in this.

This time, he hurriedly left the wild fortress. It didn't even have time for Cecilia, who was in a coma, to wake up. In addition to dealing with the betrayal of the Peace Council and Deaththorn as soon as possible, another more important reason was the path to the abyss. The result is that the arrangements for the former have been completed, and judging from the battle report sent back by William and the information transmitted by Alexis, the effect is very good; but the matter of the latter is really frustrating.

"Master Sean, I have a proposal." Hina obviously saw Xiao En's thoughts, so after thinking about it, she said.

"Tell me about it." Sean motioned.

"Although this channel is unstable at present, it can bear a lot of energy. We can definitely send two strong men there." Hina thought for a while. She seemed to be sorting out her thoughts before she spoke. Her steady performance won Sean's affirmation again, "Also. If Mr. Rotikabas and Mr. Harding can recruit so many residents of the underground world, then There must be some special means... The world is relative, so since people from the underground world can smuggle to our side, then we can also smuggle there."

"Although this matter sounds simple, it's actually not that simple." Sean understood what Hina said, but he had rich game experience and history. I am more aware of the difficulty of implementing these things, "not to mention the positioning after smuggling into the underground world, it is not a simple matter to find the gap leading to the underground world. Most of the underground world uses exile-style one-time passage, and simply ignore whether these people can reach the surface smoothly..."

The meaning of exile need not be explained too clearly, everyone knows what is going on.

"I didn't think it through." Hina apologized softly.

"It's none of your business." Sean shook his head and laughed, "There are many things in this that most people don't know, and I only found out about it after asking Harding and Roti Kabas before.... Even if it is Rotikabas, who came to look for the remains of the God of Riding, did not come here in exile, but it is not so easy for him to go back. We still can only think of a way here in the path of the abyss."

Although Xiao En said so, at this time he had already started to arrange for someone to enter the underground world.

It's not impossible to survive five years in the opposite world, it's just very dangerous. But if it really succeeds, then Sean will be able to have a forward base leading to the underground world, which is very rewarding for him-the underground world is very rich in materials, many of which are hard to find on the surface now The rare materials are things that no one cares about in the underground world. Once Xiao En can harvest these things, then the future Void Empire can quickly pass through the initial difficult period.

"Five years, is there no way to shorten it?" Sean still asked a little bit unwillingly.

"It's not impossible, but I don't think it's realistic." A researcher in a white coat said, "The cause of the damage is mainly because the power of the power machine is not enough. If it can break through the current limit value, Instead, the gap can be widened, and more people can be transported, and the path to the abyss will become more stable, and the damage will naturally be smaller."

"So in the final analysis, it's still on the magic device power machine." Xiao En looked at the behemoth that was making roaring noises next to him. Also sighed helplessly.

Because of his intervention, the black technology in this world has advanced a lot, but many necessary technologies have not yet been developed. After all, Sean is not a professional in this field. He can only provide a technical idea, and the real technical breakthrough still depends on these researchers. Therefore, if these scientific researchers can't solve the problems of materials and technical support, it will be very difficult for Magic Technology to go further.

According to Xiao En's original blueprint for the beautiful imagination of the Path of the Abyss, it may not be possible until the second generation of magic power machine is developed.

Although Sean sold Alisa without hesitation, and also provided a series of related magic gun technology. However, it may take one or two years before the second-generation magic power machine is actually developed. If Sean didn't fall out with Deaththorn and the Peace Council, then he can naturally wait another one or two years until the bone invasion is over before dealing with the invasion of the underground world.

But now, since he has turned against Deaththorn and the Peace Council, Sean must solve the problem of invading the underground world before the bone invasion event is over, laying the foundation for the upcoming Void Empire.

"Tell Neil to let him inject the largest amount of funds into the magic research project as the finances allow." Sean thought about it. In the end, I decided to spend my money!

"Supreme authority?" Hina added.

Sean thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "The highest authority!"

At this moment, everyone knew that Sean's determination to open the path to the abyss was not a joke.

Just when Sean began to issue new orders and decisions, Stalin next to him suddenly walked up to Sean, and then said: "Master Sean, the Dark Moon Gun has arrived faster than expected, and it will arrive in two hours." gone."

"So fast?" Sean was also taken aback for a moment, and then asked again. "Is there any news from the Wild Fortress?"

Stalin knew what Sean was asking, so he opened his mouth and replied: "Miss Heaterly has arrived at the Wild Fortress. Miss Cecilia is fine, but she is mentally overdrawn. She has been shocked and shocked to a certain extent, so she has not yet Wake up. But Master Heatley also said that this is a good thing for Miss Cecilia, not a bad thing, and it will accelerate the depth of her blood awakening."

"Okay, as long as Cecilia is fine." Sean nodded. "Then let's go back to meet the guests."

Originally, Sean thought that the Dark Moon Lance would not arrive so soon, so he still had a lot of time to deal with other insignificant things. It's all the same, so he turned and left after giving instructions about the Path of the Abyss. Hina still arranged for the Guardian of the Crypt Frost Spider to pick her up, but she herself did not leave the laboratory, because Hina is no different than before. As the security director of the entire underground laboratory, she is also the owner of the underground palace. Hina has more to deal with than outsiders imagine.

In particular, Sean gave Hina new tasks and orders, which was tantamount to increasing her workload.

After the door of the laboratory was closed again, Hina glanced at the woman who was walking slowly towards the research area.

The woman looked extremely haggard, her hair was messy and colorless, and she had a strange smell on her body.

This person is Reis who puts all her heart into her work, but no one knows her workaholic side except Hina. Of course, only Hina, who saw the crazy side of Leis, knew clearly that this Leis had volunteered to join the bloodline experiment team of the Millennium Covenant Empire, or she was the core initiator of the entire project team. And what she did before was just the appearance of her disguise.

"Going away?" Reis asked, his voice hoarse.

"Master Sean has already left." Hina said with a bad face, "You should be thankful that Lord Sean never thought of visiting your experiments, otherwise it would not be easy for you to pretend like this."

Hearing what Hina said, Reis smiled: "That big man won't come to visit my experiment. In other words, he doesn't care about the results of the blood test at the current stage. He doesn't know much about this experimental project. It's beyond your imagination... Hey, you don't know your lord at all."

"I don't need to know Mrs. Sean, I just know that she is my object of allegiance." Hina said coldly, she hated this woman from the bottom of her heart, "I don't know what happened between you and Mrs. Cecilia What kind of deal has been reached, but I hope you will not disappoint Lady Cecilia's expectations of you. Otherwise, even William will definitely not be able to keep you."

"Protect me?" Reis waved his hand impatiently, "Oh, do you really think William is so kind? After I met him that time, he knew my true nature. He arranged you here, You thought it was really to protect this laboratory and that path to the abyss? He made it clear that he no longer trusted me, and arranged you here just to monitor me....Everyone is an adult, it is necessary to be so secretive Yes."

Hina was noncommittal and just sneered at Reis.

"Okay, my experiment has encountered a bottleneck again. I need 100 milliliters of your blood." Reis ignored Hina's indifference, and just spoke again.

"Damn it." Hina cursed.

"If you want to break through to legend, you have no choice." Reis said lightly, "The bloodline of the Crypt Frost Spider Queen, this newly born natural bloodline, has never appeared in history before. Believe me Tell yourself that you know that your body is gradually showing signs of becoming a spider, so if you don’t want to become a half-human, half-spider monster, then it’s best to cooperate with my research to suppress your monsterization, otherwise ……hehe."

Hina took a deep breath, restrained the anger in her heart, said nothing, but walked towards Leis.

And Leis also turned around and went back to the same way, but her voice was still rambling: "Speaking of which, I really sympathize with you... The sunlight on the surface will actually accelerate your spider transformation, Is it worth it to hide forever underground for such a country?"

"I'm a pure blood, so it's not surprising that there will be some mutations." Hina seemed very calm, "Master Rui Na can also transform into a dragon."

"Rina's situation can be controlled independently, and her dragon human transformation can enhance her own combat power." Leis curled his lips, looking a little disdainful, "But your situation is different, your situation is irreversible, even if it is me It can only be suppressed."

Hina knew that Leis was telling the truth, so she didn't open her mouth to refute.

Leis gave Hina a sideways look, and then said again: "Perhaps when your bloodline awakens to a deeper level, it can become controllable behavior like Rina, but at least in the current situation, your spider It is an irreversible evolutionary behavior. Therefore, according to the current trend, you will eventually replace the crypt cold spider queen and become the supreme leader of the entire crypt cold spider group, and the old spider will become an unconscious reproductive machine."

Xina was noncommittal about this, but she was still a little scared when she thought that her lower body would turn into a spider: "But at least my descendants will not be like this."

"Then you have to find someone to marry as soon as possible, and then give birth to a child before you completely turn into a spider." In terms of blood, Reis does have a certain authority, "But even if you dilute the high blood pressure in your body in this way, The blood concentration is very low, and the success rate is very low... Unless it is diluted for several generations, it is possible to control this spider, but I guess as far as your current blood concentration is concerned, it will take at least five or six generations. .”

Hearing Leis's comment, Hina was completely silent this time.

"So..." Reis glanced at Hina, a smile finally appeared on his haggard face, "It's better to cooperate with my experiment honestly and break through to the legendary realm as soon as possible, only in this way can you completely control Your own blood will not let your blood replace your body, so you don't have to worry about becoming a spider-man."
