The banquet had finally begun.
One by one, the waiters pushed the dining carts and served the prepared dishes.
Ling Ping'an took a look.
It was quite sumptuous!
Basically, there was food that flew in the sky, swam in the sea, and ran on the ground.
Everything was available.
All kinds of drinks were placed under everyone's feet as if they didn't cost money.
It was extremely extravagant and wasteful!
However, considering that obesity was a disease of the poor in this day and age, those who could afford to lose weight were basically the middle class.
Therefore, this was really nothing!
No one would find it strange even if the rich royal family took out money to burn.
When the dishes were almost served.
On the upper floor of the banquet hall, solemn music was suddenly played.
The chimes rang in unison and the sound of Hu Jia was heard.
Everyone stood up.
The Emperor was here!
Amidst the music, the entire banquet hall began to sing in chorus.
"Heaven protects you, and also the firmness of Kong..."
It was the Book of Songs' Tianbao, and it was also the legal anthem of the Emperor of the Federal Empire.
Ling Ping'an symbolically stood for a moment and then sat down on his own.
As the Emperor, it was just a gesture.
After all, it was said in the Constitution.
The Emperor... was the son of the people of the world!
Rounding it up, he was his child.
How could there be a parent who lowered his head to his child?
But the others were extremely excited.
Especially the people at the edge of the corner, they were all singing the words of Tianbao loudly.
Finally, the chorus ended in a grand blessing.
"Like the permanence of the moon, like the rise of the sun, like the longevity of Nanshan, never collapsing, like the lush pines and cypresses, all of you bear it..."
Ding!
The chimes also rang nine times in unison.
All the doors and windows of the Zhou Hall were opened by fully armed guards.
An honor guard dressed in army uniforms from 300 years ago walked in from the main entrance of the banquet hall.
The voice of the announcer came from the loudspeaker installed inside and outside the banquet hall, "His Majesty the Emperor of the Federal Empire of Xia has arrived!"
Then, there was a foreign language introduction in various languages.
He couldn't understand the gibberish at all.
Ling Ping'an only knew that the title of the Emperor of the Federal Empire of Xia was very long in the Land of Qin.
It seemed to be a combination of all kinds of historical reasons.
It was a title that foreign countries imposed on the head of the Great Xia.
Each one was very long.
For example, Taizu had just pacified the world when he fought with Lossia, who took the opportunity to encroach on the territory of Great Xia.
The war brought three hundred years of peace.
Until now, the border between the Great Xia and Lossia was the border stipulated by the North Sea Treaty signed after that war.
In this treaty, the Lossia people seemed to have given the emperor of the Great Xia a long title of the ancient land of Qin according to their habits and traditions.
Then, it was time for the hundred-year war.
Butania, Fran, Franji, and Shenluo all arranged titles for the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty that they could understand from their respective cultures and traditions.
It was a mess.
If Ling Ping'an hadn't written web novels, he wouldn't have known about these things.
…
Amid the solemn music.
One by one, the ambassadors and representatives in China stood up and took off their hats to pay their respects.
After all, he was the most powerful man in the world!
He was also recognized by all the countries.
He was the "autocratic monarch of all parts of Asia Minor, the king assisted by wise prophets" in Lossia.
He was also the "monarch of the Central Plains, the protector of the Northern Zhou and Southern Zhou, the master of the Western Song Continent, the defender of the Donglai Autonomous State and the Fragrant Mountain Autonomous Prefecture, and the blessed emperor."
He was also recognized by the Shenluo Emperor as the "sacred master of the East, the noble and honorable emperor of the Central Plains, the conqueror, the dictator, and the protector, the ruler of all the land from the west coast of the Pacific Ocean to the east coast."
Accardo also stood up in the crowd.
He looked at the emperor who was walking over.
However, his mind couldn't help but be in turmoil.
Just now, a voice that made his heart palpitate came from the river of blood.
"Nightmare game participant, number A 0210, it's time for you to come back and continue fighting for the Realm!"
The Realm of Nightmare was summoning him.
And …
This summoning was mandatory.
He could feel that the power of the nightmare was unprecedentedly powerful and terrifying.
If he dared to refuse …
The Realm would make him into a battery!
After taking a deep breath, he couldn't help but think, "The upheaval of the Realm of Nightmare... is finally going to be revealed to the world?"
More than two hundred years ago, when the spirit aura recovered.
This mysterious Realm of Nightmare also quietly sprouted.
Accardo grew up in the adventures of the Realm of Nightmare.
His river of blood also relied on the mighty power of the Realm of Nightmare.
However …
As long as it was possible, a worker would think of a way to set up his own business.
He was no exception.
Therefore, back then, he deliberately fell into the hands of Van Helsing.
With the surging power of faith of the 'Holy Guild' that the Royal Family of Butania possessed, he broke free from the restraints of the Realm of Nightmare.
After that, he occupied several Nightmare Worlds in the Realm of Nightmare and established himself as a king. He listened to orders but not orders.
Although the Realm was strong, it was helpless against an existence like him who brazenly took advantage of the loopholes.
After all, he was too rigid.
The mechanical response and mechanical arrangements were full of loopholes for an existence like him.
Moreover …
He still had the big brother who was leading the way.
However …
Now, everything in the past no longer existed.
The Realm of Nightmare had changed.
It had changed more than three months ago.
It happened to be after the fall of Princess Mauradon.
It was also because of Mauradon's fall that he escaped from the Realm of Nightmare and woke up again.
He had thought that as long as he didn't go in again, he would be safe.
Who knew …
They would still come knocking on his door now.
"The drastic change in the Realm …"
"I will have to face it sooner or later!"
As he thought about it, he had already made a decision.
He had to go back and take a look.
… …
Amon looked at Nana, who had an innocent look on his face.
He slowly lowered his head.
Those moss-like things were drilling into his body.
He was inevitably changing in the direction of a battery.
He sighed.
The square of this Realm was now filled with a strange and thick fog.
Other than Nana in front of him, he could not see any other living things.
He had no choice. Amon could only rely on the Moon God who had just regained his freedom.
So, he said, "Nana, are you very confused..."
Nana nodded.
"Then let me explain to you one by one what you are confused about!"
"This is the Realm of Nightmare..."
"After I was liberated, I came here to avoid the spying 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 Sumer.
The God who was surrounded by light walked out from it.
The army of angels behind him covered the sky and the earth.
The Sumerian civilization and the Sumerian god system were suppressed in an instant.
His father, the God, was torn apart alive.
He could not escape death and was dragged down from the moon.
In the end, he was stuffed into a gold core and became a tool of the Kingdom of Heaven, existing as the Wheel of the Moon.
He became a slave of the Kingdom of Heaven!
In turn, he had to fight, charge, and act as a mount for that Lord.
Amon chuckled …
"Why is he not here?"
"He has always been..."
"It's just that his awakening requires the unlocking of seven seals!"
"When the seven seals are unlocked, he will wake up from the bottomless pit and the Kingdom of Heaven at the same time..."
"Then..." Amon said with some fear, "The entire world will become his nutrients!"
"Our, our civilization... the god system... the people..."
"They will all become a cup of delicious and nutritious soup!"
At this point, Amon asked Nana, "Nana, have you seen a beekeeper and an ant breeder?"
Nana did not quite understand. He nodded and said, "What do you mean?"
"That Lord is a beekeeper and also a breeder of ants!"
"He is walking on a path that we cannot understand!"
"At the end of this path, we need a potion!"
"The formula of this potion is the entire world!"
"Just like a beekeeper cutting off the honey produced by bees..."
"Just like those who raise ants, soaking the entire nest of ants in the medicinal wine!"
"After eating this last potion, he can use the entire world as a springboard to walk towards a brand new world and enter a brand new domain!"
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 for him.
The Odin gods of the Northern Qin land...
The Greek Ospirine gods were all secretly helping him.
He was still puzzled, but now, he finally understood.
Everyone was afraid, afraid that the Lord would wake up.
The day he woke up would be the end of the world!
The entire world would become his meal, his potion for further improvement!
Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that the Lord had told everyone about it from the beginning.
In the Book of Creation, he had explained it clearly.
What he wanted to do, what he would do!
In the past, Nana was in a daze and thought that he was just boasting about his greatness and intimidating the entire world.
But now...
Looking back, this itself was a grand ceremony, an incredible ritual.
Through this method, he marked the entire world.
The more people believed in him, the stronger the potion he brewed would be!
She looked at Nana trembling.
Amon did not blame him.
After all, anyone who knew this secret would be the same.
The entire world had been set up by someone, planted with divine powers, and marked.
Only the day they received the goods, they could cook the peerless divine medicine.
The entire process had long 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 wants to wake up, and he has to open the seven seals!"
"And it must be someone else who opens it, and he can\'t do it himself!"
This was the ritual of the ritual.
It was also the method of refining the potion.
It had to be done willingly, or at least it was the general trend.
Although the Lord had already predicted everything and had made arrangements.
But in the end, he could still struggle.
He could also resist.
Moreover, this was not an imminent threat.
Amon said to Nana, "Let\'s talk about the current situation first!"
"As you can see..."
"This Realm of Nightmare is also something that we can\'t understand!"
"He doesn\'t exist in myths and legends!"
"He suddenly appeared at the place where the spirit aura was recovering..."
"At first, he was very weak and stiff..."
"So we entered here and became players... controlling this place..."
"We even used him unscrupulously..."
"But now it seems... I\'m afraid this is intentional..."
"This Realm of Nightmare is the same as that Lord..."
"He has long planted a ritual in our bodies..."
"Now... He has begun to harvest!"
He looked at his lower body, bound by something like mud and invaded by something like moss. He wanted to turn himself into a battery, a battery that supplied the Realm!
"I can\'t escape!"
"But... dear Nana, you might still have hope!"
"If you can escape, or have the chance to see the other lost people..."
"Then go and ask the liberator!"
"Only the liberator might be able to save me!"
"Liberator?" Nana didn\'t quite understand. He asked, "Who is he?"
Amon chuckled and told Nana a name. Nana was dumbfounded. "Him?"
"He isn\'t?"
"So..." Amon said, "He is both a traitor and a liberator!"
"Before you, most of the other lost people and I were liberated by him!"
"However!" Amon seemed to have thought of something and said to Nana, "You must not believe him!"
"Why?" Nana didn\'t quite understand.
"Have you seen the Ouroboros of Zion City?"
Nana nodded.
"Then think about it..."
"Ouroboros, what does it represent?"
The Ouroboros was reincarnation.
The head and the tail were connected.
He raised his head, inexplicably shocked.
Because he remembered the legend of that Lord.
Amon chuckled. "How do we know if he is a traitor or a liberator?"
"How do we know if he is carrying out his master's predetermined mission?"
"I\'m afraid even he himself doesn\'t know..."
"Ga ga ga!"
That was the terror of that Lord.
Unknowable, unseeable, and unheard.
What was even more terrifying was...
No one knew his true face.
Do you think he is just the God and Creator of Heaven?
Hehe!
Amon chuckled. "Odin once told me …"
"The Seven Virtues and the Seven Deadly Sins are two sides of the same coin!"
"He suspects that that person and the Red Dragon are the same!"
The Seven Virtues were the seven Angel Kings under that person.
They corresponded to: loyalty, hope, generosity, justice, tenacity, restraint, and frugality.
And the Seven Deadly Sins were: Pride, Envy, Anger, Sloth, 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 Angel represented by the Seven Deadly Sins was also the Archangel who had served that person.
So...
Good people were him, and bad people were him.
Good people were him, and evil people were him.
So, he could be both the God of Heaven and the Red Dragon of the Bottomless Pit.
Just like the Ouroboros, head and tail were connected, forming a whole.
Thinking of the so-called lost people\'s secret realm...
Nana swallowed his saliva.
He felt that he was firmly bound by an invisible net.
He could not breathe, struggle, or gasp.
Despair surfaced in his heart.
Nana suddenly thought of something.
He said to Amon, "I was rescued in the East!"
Amon nodded and said, "I heard about it!"
Nana swallowed his saliva and asked, "The person who saved me... Could it be him too?"
This question could not be thought about.
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.
Seated on it was Umr, the Rational and Wise.
He listened to the discussion between the two strong ants in the ant\'s nest under the fog.
A mocking expression appeared on his face.
"Another beggar is talking about the golden shoulder pole of the emperor\'s family again!" He sneered.
Fortunately, he was the one on duty today.
The merciful and broad-minded Umr.
Not that hot-tempered and brainless guy.
Otherwise, the two ants would have been trampled to death by now.
Of course...
The reason why he did not trample the two ants to death.
The reason was also because it was not worth it!
Why bother?
He had long passed the stage of using the world as a soup.
His current path was on the path of using the universe as a meat paste.
Using everything in the universe to cook a pot of soup rice.
Then eating it while it was hot, it could feed the master several dream reincarnations.
For an existence like him.
Only a world of the size of the universe could barely fill its stomach.
"Speaking of which..." the wise, benevolent, and calm Umr gently fiddled with the lenses in front of him.
He looked at the human women who appeared in the mirror and wanted to become his master\'s slaves.
The mocking expression on the corner of his mouth became even more intense.
The old dominators left seeds everywhere.
That was instinct.
Because they could not control their own energy, nor could they control their madness.
They were entropy.
Madness continued to soar.
Therefore, they had to continue to reproduce.
He dispersed his own madness.
Create one deformed and terrifying monster after another.
But...
That was the old dominators.
A bunch of trash who could not control themselves!
After reaching the level of the outer gods, they could already control their madness.
Therefore, in the countless universes, the children of the outer gods were extremely rare.
It was not only because the outer gods did not need them.
It was also because there were very few existences that could withstand the madness of the outer gods.
To him.
Except for the God of Darkness and Fertility and a few others.
Any creature, even if they only glimpsed a billionth of his true face.
It would also be devoured by the darkness and madness that represented truth in an instant.
It would become a pile of deformed, mindless flesh and blood that was dominated by madness.
As for the master...
Even if it was the master in a beautiful dream, even if it was the master who had not woken up yet, even if it was just the master who was sleeping soundly.
It was not something that such a mortal creature could withstand.
Unless...
"If they grow into existences at the level of the old gods..."
"They can probably withstand it for a while!"
But...
Become the old gods?
Umr laughed.
Because that was impossible.
Unless they had first won the favor of their master.
Only if the master personally blessed them would it be possible.
But the problem was that if the master personally blessed them, they might be able to glimpse a ten-thousandth of the master\'s truth.
Then, in an instant, they would become a pool of crazy flesh and blood without their own consciousness.
This was an endless loop.
However, it was not that there was no chance.
The master\'s awakening rate was constantly increasing.
If this continued, this beautiful dream might turn into a horrifying one.
It was like a glass of water that was about to be filled. What should he do?
He had to think of a way to pour some out!
Thinking of this...
Umr 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 had passed, there were even people who could maintain their rationality 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.
The mortal creatures 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 base under him.
These tentacles went deep into the flesh and blood of the Realm of Nightmare.
Then, they fused with the flesh and blood of the Realm of Nightmare.
These flesh and blood slowly twisted under the catalysis of his divine power.
They turned into doors.
The doors had already opened.
A bridge appeared between 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 orbit of the abyss was constantly approaching.
...
Under the dusk of the journey to the west, there was an east-facing girl walking between the desolate mountains and lofty ridges.
… …
On the continent of the Sky Fall, a determined girl was hibernating under the thick yellow soil.
Above her head, the Sky Demon and Asura were howling.
A six-armed Asura was on a killing spree.
… …
Yellow sand filled the sky. The girl, who was about to lose control of herself, held the long spear that was still hungry and firmly walked towards another floating city that was about to crash.
...
Under the dark red sky, the Nun of Steel flapped her wings and walked.
She brought the people of steel and was walking towards a lair where the descendants of the Diablo were entrenched.
...
"Oh..." Umr suddenly remembered.
"I\'m just a butler..."
"How can I make decisions on behalf of the master?"
"You\'ll be beaten to death!"
