Chapter 503 - The Lucky Star
Chapter 503: The Lucky Star
The banquet finally began.
One by one, the waiters pushed the food carts and served the prepared dishes.
Ling Ping’an took a look.
Wow, it was quite sumptuous!
It basically included all sorts of edible stuff on earth.
Everything was in place.
All kinds of drinks were placed under everyone’s feet as if they were free.
It was extremely extravagant!
However, considering that obesity was a disease of the poor in this day and age, those who were able to slim down were basically middle-class people.
Therefore, this was really nothing for them!
Even if the wealthy royal family burned their money, no one would find it strange.
It was almost time for the dishes to be served.
On the floor of the banquet hall, solemn music was suddenly played.
Chimes rang out in unison, and the sound of a flute was heard.
Everyone stood up.
The emperor was here!
Amidst the music, the entire banquet hall began to sing a chorus.
It was “Tianbao” from the book of songs, and it was also the official anthem of the current emperor of the Federal Empire.
Ling Ping’an stood up symbolically for a moment.
The emperor was very generous.
After all, it was stated in the constitution.
The Emperor was the son of all the people in the world!
That meant that he had to be served with the best things available.
Everyone got extremely excited.
Especially the people in the corners, they were all loudly singing the words of “Tianbao”.
In the end, the chorus ended with a grand blessing.
“As long as the Moon, as long as the sun rises, as long as the longevity of the South Mountain, as long as the pine and cypress, no one will fail…”
“Ding!”
The chimes sounded nine times in unison.
All the doors and windows of the Zhou Hall were opened by the fully armed guards.
Honor guards wearing the Army uniform from 300 years ago walked in from the main door of the banquet hall.
The voice of the ceremonial officer came from the loudspeakers installed inside and outside the banquet hall, “His Majesty, the Emperor of the Federal Empire of Xia, has arrived!”
Following which, he introduced the various languages.
Confused, Ling Ping’an only knew that the title of Emperor of the federal empire of Xia was very long in land of Qin.
That seemed to be a combination of all sorts of historical reasons.
It was a title that the foreign countries had given to the son of Heaven of Great Xia.
Each of them was very long.
For example, the great ancestor had just calmed down the world when he fought against Lossia, who took the chance to invade Great Xia’s territory.
One battle brought 300 years of peace.
Up till now, the borders of Great Xia and Lossia were the borders set out in the North Sea Treaty.
In this treaty, the Lossia people seemed to follow their habits and traditions and gave Great Xia the title of land of Qin.
After that, it was time to talk about the Hundred Year War.
Butania, Fran, Furanji, and Shenluo all set out from their own cultures and traditions to give the son of great Xia titles that they could understand.
It was a mess.
If Ling Ping’an did not write web novels, he would not know about this.
…
Amidst the solemn music, the ambassadors and representatives in Xia stood up and took off their hats to pay their respects.
After all, this was the most powerful man in the world!
He was also recognized as the supreme being by all the countries.
He was what Lossia called ‘the autocratic monarch of Asia, a monarch assisted by Wise Prophets’
He was also what Butania praised as ‘the monarch of the central plains, the protector of the northern and southern Zhou, the Master of the Western song continent, the defender of the Donglai and Xiangshan autonomous regions, and the emperor blessed by God’.
He was also the divine ruler that Emperor Shenluo had acknowledged.
Alucard also stood up in the crowd.
When he looked at the emperor who was walking over, his mind could not help but overturn.
Just now, a voice that made his heart palpitate came from the river of blood.
“Nightmare Game participant, serial number 6210, it’s time for you to return and continue fighting for the Realm!”
The realm of nightmare was summoning him.
Moreover, this summoning was mandatory.
He could feel that the strength of nightmare was unprecedentedly powerful and terrifying.
If he dared to refuse…
the realm would turn into a chaos!
After taking a deep breath, he couldn’t help but think, “The drastic change in the realm of nightmare… is it finally going to be revealed to the World?”
More than two hundred years ago, when the spirit aura was restored.
This mysterious realm of nightmare also quietly sprouted.
Alucard had grown up in the realm of Nightmare’s adventures.
His blood river also depended on the great power of the realm.
However, as long as it was possible for a worker, he would think of a way to establish his own sect.
He was no exception.
Therefore, back then, he had intentionally fallen into the hands of Van Helsing.
He had broken free from the realm of nightmare with the help of the Saint Guild, which was owned by the royal family of Butania.
After that, he had occupied several nightmare worlds in the realm of Nightmare and had established himself as the king.
Although the realm was strong, it was helpless against an existence like him who blatantly took advantage of loopholes.
After all, he was too rigid.
Mechanical responses and mechanical arrangements were full of loopholes for someone like him.
Moreover, he still had his big brother who was leading in front of him.
Now, everything in the past no longer existed.
The realm of nightmare had changed.
It had changed more than three months ago right after Princess Maradon had fallen.
It was also because of Maradon’s fall that he had escaped from the realm and regained consciousness.
He had thought that as long as he didn’t go in, he would be safe.
Who knew…
He would come looking for him now.
“The drastic change in the realm…”
“I’ll have to face it sooner or later!”
He thought and made a decision.
It was time to go back and take a look.
…
Amon stared at the innocent-looking nana and lowered his head slowly.
Those mossy things were drilling into his body.
He was inevitably turning toward the direction of the battery.
He sighed.
The square in this space was now filled with a strange and thick fog.
He could not see any other living creature other than Nana in front of him.
There was no other way. Amon could only rely on this ‘moon god’who had just regained his freedom.
So, he said, “Nana, are you very confused…”
Nana nodded.
“Then let me explain to you all the things that you are confused about!”
“This is the realm of nightmare…”
“After I was liberated, I came here to avoid the prying and searching of that Lord!”
“That Lord?” Nana was shocked when he heard this word. “He… He is still here?”
That was Nana’s nightmare.
He would never forget the door that suddenly opened in the sky of Sumeria.
The god of light slowly walked out.
The Angel Army behind him was overwhelming.
The Sumerian civilization and the Sumerian god system were suppressed in an instant.
His father God had been torn apart alive.
He could not escape death and was dragged down from the Moon.
In the end, he was stuffed into a golden core and became a tool of the Kingdom of heaven, existing as the wheel of the Moon.
He had become a slave of the Kingdom of heaven!
He also had to fight, charge, and act as a mount for the Lord.
Amon chuckled…
“How can he not be here?”
“He has always been…”
“It’s just that he needs to break seven seals to awaken!”
“When the seven seals are broken, he will awaken from the bottomless pit and the Kingdom of heaven at the same time…”
“Then…” Amon said with some fear, “The whole world will become his nutrients!”
“We will all become a cup of delicious and nutritious soup!”
At this point, Amon asked Nana, “Nana, have you seen beekeepers and people who raise ants?”
Nana didn’t quite understand. He nodded and said, “What do you mean?”
“That Lord is a beekeeper and also an ant breeder!”
“He is walking on a path that even we can’t understand!”
“At the end of this path, a potion is needed!”
“The formula of this potion is the entire world!”
“Just like beekeepers cutting off honey produced by bees…”
“It’s also like those who raise ants but soak the entire nest of ants in the medicinal wine!”
“After taking this last potion, he can use the whole world as a springboard to walk to a brand-new world and enter a brand-new realm!”
Nana was shocked as he listened.
“No wonder… No wonder…”
He remembered that after he escaped from the east, there were all kinds of existences along the way that opened the door of convenience for him.
The gods of Odin in the land of Qin in the north..
The gods of Olympus in Greece were all secretly helping him.
Although he was baffled initially, he finally understood now.
Everyone was afraid, afraid that the Lord would wake up.
The day he woke up was the end of the world!
The entire world would become his food, his further medicine!
Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that the Lord had told everyone at the beginning.
In the Book of Genesis, he had clearly stated that he would do what he wanted to.
In the past, Nana was confused and thought that he was just boasting about his greatness and intimidating the whole world.
But now…
Looking back, it was a grand ceremony in itself, an incredible ritual.
Through this method, he marked the entire world.
The more people believed in him, the more powerful the potion he brewed!
Looking at Nana’s trembling appearance, Amon did not blame him.
After all, anyone who knew this secret would do so.
The entire world had been set up by people, planted with divine powers, and marked.
Only on the day of receiving the goods could the peerless divine medicine be cooked.
The entire process had already been announced to the world, and everyone knew about it.
“Let’s not talk about this for now…”Amon said, “You don’t have to worry too much!”
“He has to wake up and open the seven seals!”
“And it has to be someone else who opens it, not him!”
This was the ritual and the method of refining the medicine.
It had to be done willingly, or at least it was the general trend.
Although the Lord had already predicted everything and made arrangements.
In the end, there was still a way to struggle.
There was also a way to resist.
Moreover, this was not an imminent threat.
Amon told nana, “Let’s talk about the current situation first!”
“As you can see, this realm of nightmare is also something that we can not understand!”
“He isn’t in the mythical grade or the legends!”
“The place where the spirit aura was awakened suddenly appeared…”
“At first, he was very weak and inflexible…”
“So we entered this place and became players… controlling this place…”
“We even used him without any scruples…”
“But now it seems… this is probably intentional…”
“This realm of nightmare is the same as that Lord…”
“He has already planted a ritual on us…”
“Now… he has begun to harvest!”
He looked at his lower body, which was bound by something like mud, and was invaded by something like Moss. It wanted to turn him into a battery to feed the space!
“I can’t escape!”
“But… Dear Nana, you may still have hope!”
“If you can escape, or if you have the chance to meet other lost ones…”
“Then go and ask the Liberator!”
“Only the Liberator can save me!”
“Liberator?” Nana didn’t quite understand. He asked, “Who is he?”
Amon chuckled and told Nana a name. Nana was stunned after hearing it. “He?”
“You know who I’m talking about!”
“So…”Amon said, “He is both a traitor and a Liberator!”
“Before you, he liberated me and the other lost ones!”
“But!” Amon seemed to remember something and said to nana, “You must never believe him!”
“Why?” Nana didn’t quite understand.
“Have you seen the Ouroboros in Zion City?”
Nana nodded.
“Then think about it…”
“What does the Ouroboros represent?”
The Ouroboros were reincarnations.
Their heads and tails were connected.
He looked up in shock as he remembered the legend of the Lord.
Amon chuckled. “How do we know whether he is a traitor or a Liberator?”
“How do we know whether he is carrying out the mission set by his Master?”
“I’m afraid even he himself doesn’t know…”
This was the terror of that Lord: Unknowable, invisible, inaudible.
What was even more terrifying was..
No one knew his true face.
Did you think that he was only the god and creator of the Kingdom of Heaven?
Hehe!
Amon said, “Odin once told me that the seven virtues and the seven deadly sins are two sides of the same coin!”
“He suspects that the same goes for the Red Dragon!”
The seven virtues were the seven kings of the Angels.
They were loyalty, hope, generosity, justice, tenacity, restraint, and thrift.
The seven deadly sins were arrogance, jealousy, anger, laziness, greed, Gluttony, and lust.
The seven virtues corresponded to the seven archangels.
The seven deadly sins corresponded to the seven fallen angels.
Interestingly, the seven virtues were archangels, and the fallen angels represented by the Seven Deadly Sins were also the Archangels who had served that one.
In other words, the good man was him, and the bad man was him.
So, he could be the god of the Kingdom of heaven, or the red dragon of the bottomless pit.
Just like the Ouroboros, his head and tail were connected, forming a whole body.
Then he thought of the so-called lost one’s secret realm..
Nana swallowed his saliva.
He felt that he was tightly bound by an invisible net.
He could not breathe; he could not struggle; he could not breathe.
Despair emerged in his heart.
Nana suddenly remembered something, so he said to Amon, “I was saved in the East!”
Amon nodded and said, “I heard about it!”
Nana gulped and asked, “The person who saved me… could it be him?”
This question could not be thought of.
It was terrifying to think about it!
Amon was also stunned.
…
Balls of light were faintly discernible above the fog.
The green stone foundation appeared in the illusion.
Sitting on it was the rational and intelligent UMR.
He listened to the discussions between the strong ants in the ant nest under the fog.
Mockery appeared on his face.
“Another beggar is talking about the emperor’s golden pole!”He sneered.
Fortunately, it was him who was on duty today.
The merciful and magnanimous UMR.
He was not that grumpy and brainless guy.
Otherwise, those two ants would have been trampled to death by now.
Of course…
The reason why he did not step on those two ants.
Was also because it was not worth it!
Why?
He had long passed the stage of using the world as soup.
His current goal was using the universe as meat paste.
He would use everything in the universe to cook a pot of soup.
Then, he would eat it while it was hot, and he would be able to control his master’s dream reincarnations several times.
For an existence like him, only a world with the size of the universe could barely fill its stomach.
“Speaking of which…” The wise Amur gently moved the lens in front of him.
He looked at the human women who appeared in the mirror and wanted to become his master’s slave.
The sneer on his lips became even more intense.
The old Dominators left seeds everywhere.
This was an instinct because they could not control their own energy, and they could not control their own madness.
They were entropy.
Madness was constantly soaring.
Therefore, they had to constantly reproduce.
In order to scatter their madness, they would create one deformed and terrifying monster after another.
However, those were the rulers of the past.
A bunch of trash who couldn’t control themselves!
After reaching the level of a foreign god, they could already control their madness.
Therefore, in countless universes, the children of foreign gods were extremely rare.
It wasn’t just because the foreign gods didn’t need them.
It was also because there were very few existences that could withstand the madness of the gods.
In his case, other than the God of darkness and fertility and a few others, any living creature, even if they only saw a millionth of the true face of his true body.
In an instant, they would be devoured by the darkness and madness that represented the truth.
They would become a pile of deformed flesh and blood that had no intelligence and was only controlled by madness.
As for their master…
Even if it was their master who was in a beautiful dream, even if it was their master who had yet to wake up, even if it was their master who was only sleeping soundly.
It was not something that ordinary beings could endure.
Unless…
“They have grown into existences on the level of the old days…”
“They can still barely endure it!”
However…
Amur laughed.
It was impossible to return to the old days, unless they won their master’s favor first.
It was only possible if their master personally blessed them.
But the problem was that if their master personally blessed them, they might be able to see one-thousandth of their master’s truth.
And then, in an instant, they became a pool of crazy flesh without their own consciousness.
This was an endless cycle.
However, it was not that there was no chance.
The master’s degree of awakening continued to increase.
If this continued, this beautiful dream might become terrifying.
It was like a glass of water that was about to be filled. What should he do?
Find a way to pour some out!
Thinking of this, Amur smiled.
He existed in the form of a human. When he smiled, although it was a little strange, it was still normal.
After all, after countless years, some people could still remain rational after seeing him.
He turned his head and looked at another mirror.
In the mirror, there were many worlds reflected.
He looked at the mirror in front of him again.
There were many ordinary things in the mirror.
“Who will be the lucky one? “The corner of his mouth slowly curled up.
With a wave of his hand, countless tentacles drilled out from the pedestal under him.
These tentacles penetrated deep into the flesh and blood of the realm of nightmare.
Not long after, they fused with the flesh and blood of the realm of nightmare.
Under the catalysis of his divine power, these flesh and blood slowly twisted.
They turned into doors that slowly opened.
A bridge appeared between the time and space guarded by the silver key.
Next, it was the link!
He watched the scenes of the worlds.
The Demon Hunter Girl looked up at the sky from the roof.
The Abyss’s orbit was getting closer and closer.
…
Under the twilight of the journey to the west, there was a girl heading east, walking among the desolate mountains.
…
On the overcast continent, the resolute girl was hiding under the thick yellow soil.
Above her head, the sky demon and Asura were howling.
A six-armed Asura was slaughtering everyone.
…
Yellow sand filled the sky. The girl was about to lose control of herself. Holding the spear, she resolutely walked toward another floating city that was about to crash.
…
Under the dark red sky, the nun of steel flapped her wings.
She brought her people of steel and walked toward the lair of a descendants of Diablo.
…
“Ugh…” Amur suddenly remembered something.
“I’m just a Butler… How can I make decisions in master’s Place?”
“I’ll be beaten to death!”
