  Chapter 696 Unlocked: Path of Spiritual Disaster! (chapter)

   Next, Ian told a lot.

He talked about the importance of alchemy, the possibility of alchemy prosthetics to bring the disabled back to health, he talked about such a future, and promised that it will come true, all people disabled by war will receive almost free treatment, so All that is needed is to go to Xiahui to cooperate with the experiment.

He talked about the necessity of education, the significance of learning and knowledge to the mountain people, and announced that all war orphans will be raised by him, and all children who have lost their relatives due to war will receive subsidies and free education. Among the clusters, there will be schools from Xiahuiling in the future.

  This is not compulsory education, our empire does not promote this. It is a pure loyalty college, and all those who have given their blood will be rewarded by the lord for their blood.

  Ian tells a lot, he paints a picture of the future, and makes people believe as much as possible.

   Then, there were bursts of cheers and praises.

   Of course, a little potion may have been added. However, compared to the fact of victory itself and the excitement aroused by Ian, these potions are not so much to continue to incite them, but rather to keep them calm to a certain extent, so as not to hurt themselves because of being too fanatical.

   After the speech was over, facing the tsunami-like voice, Ian kept silent.

  At this moment, he slightly closed his eyes to listen to the mighty and noisy waves.

  He heard.

  He heard the beating heart and heard tears streaming down his cheeks.

  He heard the pain, torment and sorrow lurking in everyone's heart, but some people choose to use passion to cover up their anxiety, and some people use crying to express hesitation.

   Ian listens to it all. He knew what he was going to do and where he was going, his heartbeat was steady and powerful, the brilliance of the stars lit up above his head, and the crown of guidance quietly emerged.

  He can feel, he can hear, he can see.

  So we know that he is the center of thousands of peaks.

  —He has truly been recognized by all the mountain people present... He has become the well-deserved leader of the mountain people and the messenger of the Dragon God.

  So it was at noon, when the sun was shining.

  At the top of the Sacred Steel Mountain, a star suddenly lit up.

  The cyan-blue stars shone between the sky and the earth, and the brilliance of the gods flickered in the distance, only Ian could see it.

  At this moment, Ian felt that in his heart light body "Guiding Star", the originally blocked star gem, representing the "Path of Spiritual Disaster", was suddenly unlocked.

Different from the gem that originally represented the 'Path of the Swarm', this time, probably because Ian was more experienced, or his control over the light body became stronger, he sensed that behind the star-like gem, There are countless hazy silver-cyan lines that are spreading, deriving...

   In other words, this time, he probably didn't randomly choose a parallel world to 'connect' with himself. He could choose a string to pluck and connect with the other side.

  Ian can also see that this choice is not without limitations. With his current strength and cohesive 'guidance', there are not many threads he can move, and most of them are parallel worlds at the same level as himself, the highest being the third energy level.

This is not surprising - the way of the swarm randomly connects with Ian of the swarm, who is around the second and third energy levels. Everyone is mutual. If you want to connect across levels, you must at least have experienced the South China Sea Big events like the Great Labyrinth and the Viscountdom of Avak will do.

   Anyway, choice is better than random.

  The conditions have been met, the choice can be discussed later.

  Ian retracted his thoughts.

  The young man noticed it, and it seemed that all the mountain people had seen it. This manifested in the daytime, a star hanging high in the sky.

  Everyone saw it. They stared at Ian's mind light body, staring at the unimaginable, almost miraculous vision—so there was a silence at first, followed by bursts of noisy exclamation.

   "This, what is this?!"

   "Is it a vision? Mind light body? But... isn't the messenger only at the second energy level?!"

   "This is a miracle! It's a miracle! It's the protection of the Dragon God!"

For a moment, a huge sound wave hit the entire valley, and everyone was dizzy from the shock of other people's voices. Even the mother who was holding the child ended her prayer. She raised her head, somewhat puzzled, Looking towards the top of the sky, he slowly opened his eyes wide.

  She didn't believe that this was the result of her prayer...but it was too coincidental, too coincidental...

   If you say, this is a miracle...

   At least, she will believe it.

   Believe in a slim hope.

   The admiration and cheers became louder, and Ian crowned his head. He bathed in the crowd full of enthusiasm and hope, even though his heart was calm, there were some waves.

"I actually don't care about how you live, whether you were injured in the war... To be honest, I don't care about your future at all, because as long as everything develops according to my plan, you will have the minimum human rights and life , and it will not be as precarious as it is now."

Ian sighed in his heart: "But now I understand Grand Duke Thorin a little bit... If what he bears is such trust, as the hope of his subjects, and he foresees the harm of war to ordinary people, it's no wonder that he is so dazed that he wants to die." Kill everyone and take their souls to hell."

  Because even Grand Duke Thorin of the fourth energy level could not stop the war between Flameland and the Empire, and could not stop the general trend of the times from running over his people, leaving a hopeless ruin.

Just the many sad voices he heard at the scene today, those sad wives and mothers, those fathers and husbands who were so desperate that they just listened to his speech with strength, their stories are enough to melt many hard-hearted people mind.

  If the scale of the war was larger, then the buffer zone of the Grand Duke of Thorin would definitely be even more tragic.

  In the heart of the Grand Duke, what he did was probably an inevitable move out of desperation.

   But Lord Thorin was wrong. Ian thought so.

  Because his **** is not perfect, the dead king he designed is not perfect either.

   So, let him do it.

   It is up to him to create a religion to heal the hearts of these wounded.

Yes, it's not science, but the cold facts of science can't comfort these desperate souls—tell a widow that her husband will never come back, that death is an eternal parting, and that her days will never come. It will return to the past... so what's the use even if it's the truth?

   What's more, in Terra, this is not 'truth'.

  In the future, Ian can almost guarantee that he will usher in several wars, and at that time, there may be more people who die.

  Death should not be a hindrance to his plans, at least, death should not be such an absolute end.

  —Perhaps, the connection between the "Guiding Star" and the path of spiritual disaster should be used here. I should try to find the technology related to the "dead king" again... The artificial soul is not just the energy pool of the dead king, nor is it just the foundation of the arcane path.

  —Artificial souls may also be used as the starting point of "Second Life"...Death is only the beginning!

   Ian thought. Through the unlocking of the heart light body, he has another plan in his heart.

   Lowering his eyes, he looked at the people down the mountain.

  —I can't give you back your lost husbands, wives, and children, I can't turn back time, I can't change it all.

  —but at least I can give you a future. A future where even death is not a farewell.

  【I am the envoy of the Dragon God, the prophet of thunder—I have defeated the Constructed Knight of Flaming Land, defeated Kod of Kamubu, and I am the one who crushed the conspiracy of the traitor and defeated the conspiracy of the enemy country】

  【I will lead you to victory, and another victory! 】

  At this moment, Ian stepped forward, his voice echoing in the mountains.

  The young man spread his hands, and slowly walked down the stairs, down the holy mountain. The magnetic storm armor shone around him, and the thunder steps shone with his steps.

He walked down the mountain and stepped into the mountain people. Wherever he passed, the chiefs of one tribe after another bent down and knelt on one knee to salute. Hope and stars bow their heads.

   Perhaps in the distant future, there will be a world where no one needs to bow the knee to anyone.

   But not now.

  —I will lead you...to the high heavens.

  Ian lowered his eyes. He came to the center of the crowd and received the worship of the crowd. There was no sadness or joy in his heart, only the most steadfast desire.

   On January 1, 774, Ian became the messenger of the Dragon God.

  On the same day, Ian Yinfeng, the envoy of the dragon god, and Manya Afud, the head of the Nanling mountain people, went to the Holy Land Steel Dragon Nest together.

   Today is 9000 words! Ask for a monthly ticket at the end of the month!
