Angelina, accompanied by Frankenstein and Lydia, arrived before Roger, dressed in the formal attire of the Imperial Prime Minister.
"Everyone has their own tasks to fulfill, and this is a letter Her Majesty left for you."
Though called a letter, it was merely a piece of paper:
"Build this starry sky well, and remember to bring Me back..."
Incomplete and without context, the rest had been torn off.
He looked at Angelina: "Sis, did you tear this?"
"Of course, it was Her Majesty herself. So, no matter what doubts you have, you must persevere. Remember to ask her personally when the wall between the two worlds opens."
This gentle sister, at this moment, displayed unparalleled determination and understanding of Her Majesty's choice.
Because if she were in her place, and if she had the ability, she would do the same.
In their hearts, some things were more important than life itself.
Roger looked at the half-sheet of paper in his hand, seemingly guessing the mood in which she had written those words, before finally looking up:
"So, I shall be the Regent of the Green Vine Empire from this moment on. My first decree: wartime economy continues, until the day of victory."
He knew that in the current environment, there was no room for any mercy. The army would carry out his and her will, continuing to manage this starry sky, continuing to build this starry sky.
What if the laws have changed? What if gods transcend the laws?
The battle would not end before life ended.
Chapter 284: The Prototype of the Wizard System
Three months had passed since the fierce battle outside the God-Slaying Fortress.
In these three months, the war that had lasted for several years came to an end. Even though Xia Na led the Tianming Army in continuing their destruction in the diocese, they could only watch what was happening on the other side of the two-world wall.
No, they couldn't even see it. Using an independent universe as a barrier to divide the two worlds meant that, apart from limited light that could pass through, no other means of detection could reveal what was happening on the other side of the wall.
This was the Eternal Night Empress's solitary bravery, and also her gift to the mortals of this universe.
Although she might not be able to return, the struggle of the Natural Selection Alliance would never stop.
Eternal Night World, Green Vine Empire, City of Mysteries.
Outside the Maple Spirit Moon Shadow Palace, many palaces had been torn down, and a "Hall of All Races" had been rebuilt.
This palace had no pillars, relying purely on the rigidity of the materials to support a hundred-meter-high dome, on which were carved all the races within the Natural Selection Alliance that had a population of over ten million.
The final count of races was over thirty thousand, and this number might increase or decrease with time, and the Hall of All Races would be constantly adjusted.
Behind the main stage of the hall, the entire Maple Spirit Moon Shadow Palace could be seen. At every representative meeting of the Natural Selection Alliance, anyone who spoke would have the place where the Empress had worked in the background.
Now that palace had been sealed. After Roger took office as Regent, he did not move into the residence that the Emperor of the Empire should have, but still lived in the Maotai Mountain Villa that she had bestowed upon him.
He always believed that she would return, and their continuous efforts were also accelerating her return.
"On behalf of the Skysea Tower, I am reporting to all compatriots on the analysis of anti-magic essence: Compared to magic essence, this fundamental particle carries the same total amount of energy and can also actively participate in various magical reactions. The basic parameters are shown in the figure below. If any research laboratory has new measurement standards, please update the information at any time."

Isali Newton was now the first person in charge of the Skysea Tower. At the moment when the anti-magic essence broke out, Galilei was in charge of the operation of the God-Burial Labyrinth. The huge explosion occurred in an instant, and he had no time to react before being melted into magic essence-level units.
Such sacrifices were not uncommon. Many leaders of countries and forces also lost their lives in that battle, and a feeling of grief always permeated the entire venue.
But in fact, everyone was about to come out and restore a more efficient production order.
No matter what they chose, everyone had to live, even if they only had one day, one month, or one year left under the oppression of the gods. They could not indulge in sadness and have a reason to escape the responsibilities in reality.
Home, country, nation, universe, perhaps not everyone can rise to that level of awareness and take on the responsibility of supporting the entire universe, but indeed the fate of this universe is now closely related to every independent intelligent individual.
Isali continued to summarize the important attributes of anti-magic essence. The impact of this existence, which fundamentally changed this universe, was all-encompassing:
The power of magic has generally increased, but the probability of unexpected attributes has also increased significantly. This is not only because everyone has limited understanding of anti-magic essence, but also because its own nature is more active.
The affinity between anti-magic essence and the spirit is much greater than that of positive magic essence, which is also the source of many mutations. Once intelligent individuals cannot control their various emotions, various distortions will occur.
Most distortions are irreversible. After developing to a certain extent, they will lead to mental madness, turning into irrational individuals who must be eliminated as soon as possible.
Magic crystal machinery can still operate in the new environment, but debugging requires more time, and the final stability is not optimistic.
It is still the basic characteristics of anti-magic essence that are at work. It seems that the God King has always been worried about the control derived from mortal wisdom, so when setting anti-magic essence, he moved the entire world more towards the idealistic side.
This is very unfriendly to magicians. Although the abilities and thinking they display are very unscientific, they are essentially the most steadfast materialists, but now anti-magic essence has become synonymous with uncertainty.
"Although the uncontrollability of magic still exists, it is still the most efficient means of energy control that we can master. Our cornerstone of civilization lies in this. The time that the two-world wall can support cannot be determined. It is impossible for us to find a new path. We can only explore and summarize at the same time, and pay more sacrifices for this. Secret magicians and one billion magicians from all over the world have jointly signed, and we are willing to become wizards. Please approve the chairman."
This once somewhat shy, brown-haired girl, now relying on her profound theoretical foundation, using various mathematical tools, quickly analyzed the mysteries of anti-magic essence, and became the spokesperson for all magicians, speaking at the All-Races Congress.
Roger was the chairman of this congress. After taking over as Regent of the Green Vine Empire, no plane or force expressed any objection to this, and all believed that the leader of the Green Vine Empire was their leader.
This was the legacy of the Eternal Night Empress's prestige, and also the deep impression that the Empire's previous combat heroism and selfless dedication as a pioneer had left on others.
Roger solemnly scanned the information in front of him and asked, "What will be the mortality rate of your exploration?"
"More than 50%, maybe even higher. But this is a road that must be taken."
Isali opened her sleeves. On her arm, there was an emotionless eye, with countless mysterious runes at the pupils, dense and dizzying.
"This is a product of distortion, but it also brings me wisdom and perceptual gains. There is still a high degree of uncontrollability, but as long as we find a way to constrain it, appropriate distortion can also improve strength, even to levels that were previously impossible to reach."
Isali also showed the participating representatives more results of benign distortion. Although the pictures were somewhat indescribable and the effects were not fully determined, many of the data they had mastered proved that anti-magic essence, no matter how dangerous, would be conquered by mortal wisdom.
Roger admired the courage of these magicians. After the outbreak of anti-magic essence, although soldiers were fighting bloody battles on the front lines, magicians as researchers had never been timid. They were bravely making all kinds of attempts to restore the power they once had.
The price was heavy, the harvest was uncertain, but they still had to go on.
"I agree to enter the voting process," he finally expressed his position.
And the vote was naturally unanimously passed. They had nothing to lose. Even if they had to embrace distortion and abandon their past forms, as long as their thinking was still free, there was no reason to block the path to becoming stronger.
"I only hope that when you move forward, you will be wary of the abyss and cherish your lives."
Roger thanked Isali and the billion magicians behind her, "Your exploration is commendable, your courage is admirable, but their wisdom is the lighthouse guiding us to pierce the darkness."
Isali bowed: "We always remember that we will never get lost on the road to power, and every bit of strength is only to illuminate the brighter future of the front and explore safe havens in the mist."
"Thank you for the dedication of the magicians."
All the representatives stood up and bowed to Isali. Many of them were also magicians. After this meeting, they could finally resume meditation and resume their research on magic.
After the outbreak of anti-magic essence, the front issued a strict ban in the name of military control: no one is allowed to meditate and practice under supervision, nor should they cast magic in non-essential situations that endanger their lives.
Because any meditation may cause distortion, and any magic cast may bring unknown changes. In order to ensure social stability, the Natural Selection Alliance temporarily degenerated into a large pile of backward medieval countries.
But this backwardness did not last long. The Empire's military has always had pure technology machinery and weapons, but they are only used in special operations and espionage intelligence fields. Magic crystal machinery is more useful on the front battlefield.
But now that magic crystal machinery is paralyzed, technological products, which are relatively inefficient ways of using energy, have quickly restored production capacity after solving some material problems because the energy reaction of designing anti-magic essence is relatively small.
Therefore, in people's livelihood, agriculture, and industrial production, the Natural Selection Alliance has spread this technology and quickly restored productivity.
Plus the previous accumulation, at least there has been no major famine or plague.
Demonic beasts have changed due to anti-magic essence, but the troops returning from the previous battlefield of the gods can easily clean them up as if they were on vacation.
The only thing that is tense is medical resources. Ordinary people also have a probability of distortion, and it is impossible to completely avoid the runaway of the strong who cannot control their power, which caused a large range of panic at the beginning.
But the benefits of the popularization of past knowledge have also been reflected. If the people are not enlightened, everyone will only blindly ask for help from the gods, but now the Empire broadcasts the principles of anti-magic essence, and everyone actively helps each other and takes effective suppression measures, which has well controlled the development of distortion in the early stage.
The research results of various research institutes are also exchanged and communicated in a timely manner to find effective treatment measures, and the tension of medical resources has been quickly alleviated.
However, this alleviation is only within the scope of ordinary people. High-level professionals and spellcasters still face irreversible distortions. The higher the original magic level of the life form, the greater the trouble they will encounter.
However, the group of magicians has always been the cornerstone representing the will of civilization to move forward. Even at the risk of their lives, they continue to research and explore new paths of power.
Now the more recognized conclusion is that all past professional upgrade methods can be retained and transformed into cultivation methods that adapt to the environmental characteristics of anti-magic essence.
Adding more clear emotional control meditation methods, as well as suppressing physical fitness and magic activity in life, and intermittent control that only explodes during combat and when needed, can greatly reduce the mental consumption of anti-magic essence and increase the will stability of high-level professionals.
Further research shows that magicians always have crises and opportunities accompanied. Actively inducing distortion under high self-control can result in considerable improvements, and new powerful skills and talents that the previous profession did not have appear.
This is the Eye of Mystery that Isali showed at the All-Races Congress, as well as a series of new distorted organizations.
If these distortion organizations are the core, a series of new professional systems can be created to obtain new combat power.
This may also be a way to break through the strength bottleneck of magicians. After all, in the environment of anti-magic essence, the highest-level forbidden spells cannot be used, and the restoration of magic crystal machinery, which originally represented the highest combat power of mortals, is far away.
What will they use to fight the gods? The new wizard system may bring an answer.
Most magicians, even if they will not abandon the old professional system, are willing to study and dabble in the wizard system, but previously the Natural Selection Alliance prohibited the public dissemination and sharing of wizard knowledge.
Uncontrollable, dangerous, high mortality rate, unclear future, a series of problems.
This is why the magicians jointly signed this notarization meeting.
The road to exploring knowledge has never been afraid of death. Even if the pursuit of knowledge is only a little bit forward, those most excellent magicians are willing to pay any price.
Life, in the face of infinite unknowns, has no great significance.
When the news of the lifting of the ban on the wizard system was announced, and soon allowed to pay contribution points to browse in the No Fear Space channel, the entire Natural Selection Alliance entered a state of excitement.
They have more control over their destiny.
"I just don't know when our warships will be able to take off again and fly over that wall?"
Roger walked out of the Hall of All Races, looked at the blue sky that seemed to have not changed compared to before, and sighed softly.
He always has a strong sense of urgency in his heart. The time for development was exchanged by the Eternal Night Empress with her own sacrifice. Any slackness would be a betrayal of her intentions.
But sometimes it is not that they want to slack off, but that in the face of the location environment, there is no clear direction forward.
They must wait for their research on anti-magic essence to be further deepened before they can fully break through the industrial upgrading, and in the field of full advancement, no matter how much investment or how much manpower, it must consume so much time.
He could accelerate, but not infinitely. Frankenstein had warned him that blindly piling up numbers was meaningless.
So, even with the resources of thousands of planes at his disposal, having the power but nowhere to use it was a kind of helplessness.
They now knew that the only correct path was to encourage all races to have more children while they had enough resources, so that after the war started, there would be enough intelligent variables to test out the correct path.
Admittedly, the negative magic element environment had a radiation-like effect, greatly increasing the deformity rate of infants. Technology to avoid this was constantly being researched, but the matter of breeding the next generation had to be carried out in order to submerge the gods once again in the ocean of people's war.
On the other side of the Wall Between Worlds, the God of Knowledge handed over the task of managing the parishes and encircling the Tianming Army to the other three gods, while he moved the Labyrinth of Dimensions to the outside of the Wall Between Worlds, engaging in an eternal war with the Eternal Night Empress in her universe, where the passage of time was unknown.
Chapter 285: I'm Waiting for Teammates
This was a folded, narrow universe where divine power beings and complex swarms born from devouring divine power were engaged in a war that seemed like it would never end.
However, in the general civilization's understanding, the swarms were the attacking side, only knowing how to plunder and destroy.
But on this battlefield, the relationship between the two was exactly the opposite. Under the guidance of their Empress's will, the swarms stubbornly resisted the constant attacks of the divine army.
Ten years? Or had it been a hundred years?
In this space with extremely simple rules, where interaction with other universes was prohibited, there was no reference point like the sun, moon, or stars to mark the passage of matter. Even the rules of matter often changed due to the battlefield situation, so there was no way to determine time.
This was originally just a hypothesis of the Eternal Night Empress, a deduction of an application to deal with the worst-case scenario. At that time, although the Natural Selection Alignment had pressure, it was clear that the gods could not come up with more methods, and they were about to shift from defense to offense—
It was at this time that the negative magic element broke out. The Eternal Night Empress also completely did not expect that the gods would use such a fundamental tactic. Just like they would carry out that round of cruel and ruthless massacre, they all belonged to the 'I'm not playing with you anymore, I'm flipping the table' tactics.
The tragedy of mortals lay in the fact that they lived in this universe, relied on this universe, and did not yet have the qualifications to transcend the universe. Therefore, the initiative of this kind of combat method was completely in the hands of the gods.
Helpless, the Eternal Night Empress used Universe No. 25 to open the Wall Between Worlds, dividing the battlefield and buying the last round of development time for the people she guarded.
The God-King's move was indeed unexpected, so she would use herself as a bargaining chip to exchange a bit of fault tolerance for mortals!
This was her fighting spirit, without a trace of regret in her heart, after sitting in the Wall Between Worlds, a universe she created, facing countless rounds of attacks.
In countless battles, the God of Knowledge analyzed the rules of the Wall Between Worlds while influencing the matter of the universe within the wall, creating his own army to consume the energy inside, as well as the will of the Eternal Night Empress.
But she controlled hundreds of billions of swarms, holding off one attack after another, and even made the race she temporarily created more and more perfect, showing more and more terrifying attributes. Even the God of Knowledge had to marvel at her willfulness.
Not only was she willing to sacrifice herself at critical moments, but her speed of understanding war was also unmatched, and she had a fighting spirit that would never be extinguished.
The will of this kind of mortal could not be changed by external forces, making her the most difficult opponent. After thinking about it, the only way was to defeat her head-on.
For the God of Knowledge, who wanted to fulfill the God-King's last wish, this was a waste of time, delaying the Father God's wish for a long time.
He suddenly became curious and asked, "Are you so confident that your country will be able to grasp a bargaining chip that surpasses the gods before I break the rules here?"
"What if I'm not confident? Am I supposed to sit still and wait for death?"
The Eternal Night Empress had also been bored for a long time and responded very calmly.
Emotions like anger and hatred were meaningless. The basic forms of life on both sides were different, which naturally determined that they would think about problems from different perspectives.
She did not deny that the gods indeed had the right to pursue a wider universe, but she did not think that they were qualified to decide the fate of the entire universe because of their pursuit.
