At the highest point of Planet Saka, Saber sat on top of the God of War Totem made of steel. His feet swung back and forth hundreds of meters in the air. Beside him was a bottle of wine and a basket of fruits. He let the cold wind blow his hair, looking very relaxed and happy.
"I say, starting from the day after tomorrow, the competition will enter the elimination round. You will begin to face the challenges of the most powerful gladiators in this universe. Aren't you worried at all?"
Gao Tianzun's voice came from behind him, but it did not disturb his rare good mood. He waved his hand and pointed to a battle that was going on below.
"If your previous champions were all at this level, would I still have to worry?"
"Hey, you bastard, how can you say that?"
Gao Tianzun was a little rude. His projection put his hands on his waist and said loudly, "I am a super gladiator of the entire universe. Don't underestimate them, you bastard. They are my best collection!"
"It's a pity that one of them is already dead."
Saber yawned. "The other three will be dead soon …"
Actually, according to the two elders that Seiber had interacted with, the most ancient of the universe, the undying and indestructible existences, were actually quite easy to talk to. They weren't like those frogs in a well, and in some aspects, they were even more like ordinary people. Of course, the prerequisite was that you had to be different from them. Under their friendly appearance, they were indifferent to everything. If you couldn't arouse their interest, you would be no different from dust in their eyes.
Seiber respected their strength, but he wouldn't bow down to them because he was also a possessor of strength.
You see, pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger was always a whimsical act, because it was impossible to bring a pig to a gathering of tigers. At least in this universe, if you were strong, you had to let others see you!
Bang!
High Priestess Ayesha slammed her hands on the golden table in front of her. The most outstanding ruler of King Planet, who had undergone the most optimal genetic adjustment in thousands of years, showed a rare expression of anger. This caused her golden skin to be surrounded by a pulsating red halo.
"Why haven't you found out the reason? Security Officer Claude! I now seriously doubt whether you are worthy of your position and the excellent genes in your body! "
This sentence made the expressions of the guards and maids in the entire palace become terrified. Standing in front of the High Priestess, the handsome new Security Officer also lowered his head in shame. In his eyes, indescribable horror flashed. You must know, on Planet King, being questioned about one's genes was a very terrible thing. In the past five days, at least three high-ranking and powerful officers were sentenced to death because of this.
And the cruelest punishment … beheading!
However, these executions were not because of the High Priestess' abuse of power..........
Planet King was a very special planet. It belonged to a branch of the Sovelin Civilization. This civilization was famous throughout the South Area for its highly developed remote control technology and very inhumane genetic debugging. In the era of universe technology, these arrogant golden-skinned people, who still maintained the feudal theocratic rule, controlled one-fifth of the intelligent planets in the Great Triangular Galaxy. They were considered a relatively large force here.
However, the reputation of the Sovelin Civilization was very bad, mainly because of their extreme arrogance and hatred of outsiders. They had a kind of mysterious self-confidence, thinking that they were more advanced than other creatures in the Milky Way. In order to achieve this "advanced", they abandoned the natural reproduction method a long time ago and replaced it with genetic debugging experiments. This led to the present, thousands of years later, everyone on this planet was the product of genetic experiments.
However, despite their notoriety, the genetic technology of the Suo Weilin Civilization was second to none in the South Area, or even the entire Milky Way. This was also the reason why the other Forces were restraining these guys with bad personalities … they needed the derivative products of this technology.
Therefore, even if no one liked the Sovelin Civilization, they were still an indispensable part of the South Area's universe ecosystem.
The Sovereign King Planet belonged to one of the stronger branches of the Sovelin Civilization that had split and developed hundreds of years ago. They usually called themselves the "Supreme Star Planet". Just this name alone reflected the arrogance of these guys.
High Priestess Ayesha's troubles began four days ago.
At that time, they had just sent away those rude and barbaric mercenaries who were very good at fighting. As a result, on the same night, some kind of terrible large-scale epidemic broke out in three border cities of Planet King.
Getting sick was a very rare encounter for the Planet King, whose genetic debugging was at the forefront of the universe. At first, the number of sick people was not many, and the local sheriff did not pay much attention to it. But at midnight on the second day, the number of sick people began to spread in an exponential manner, and 17 border cities fell overnight.
What was worse was that the sick people were dying. If it was just death, there was nothing to be afraid of, but the dead people quietly came back to life in a different state. They became unconscious and began to attack everyone around them under the command of some will. It was like the plague in the Middle Ages, or like ink dripped into water, instantly staining it.
By the time High Priestess Ayesha was awakened from her morning sleep, the situation was already out of control. The panicked civilians wanted to escape from the place of death, but they did not realize that they were also carrying the deadly plague.
Yes, it was a plague, and it did not simply affect the body. If it was in the Middle Ages, where people's mobility was not fast, this plague could be alleviated by simply sealing off the place where it occurred. But the problem was that Planet King's highly developed travel technology combined with this sudden deadly plague, and in just three days, it evolved into a terrible disaster that covered one-third of the country.
"Report the situation! Mr. Claude … "
The High Priestess sat on her throne with a cold expression. Her golden face was calm, but the indifference in her eyes made people shudder.
Faced with this terrible situation where they could be dragged out and hacked to death at any time, the sheriff hurriedly took the information he had sorted out from the secretary and reported to the High Priestess who was in a bad mood.
"The dead who can move have been stopped by our brave soldiers at the front line of Golden Valley. Their attack power is very weak, and they do not have the ability to break through the defense of our ground troops. The nationwide quarantine has been completed, and 5,478 virus carriers have been quarantined in the laboratory. Two hours ago, our scientists have developed the latest genetic vaccine for this highly lethal plague, and it can completely guarantee that our soldiers are immune to the poison."
Hearing this report, the High Priestess' expression eased a little, but her anger was still there. She asked coldly:
"You know what I'm concerned about … Who is that ugly Claude! Who is the one who caused all this! Our race's perfect genes cannot suddenly be infected with the plague, so I want to know, who is the one who is provoking the great Planet King? "
"This …"
The handsome security officer could not help but wipe away the sweat on his forehead, an action that filled him with masculinity. In truth, a thousand years of genetic adjustment was enough to make every person in the Suweilin civilization the standard of handsome men and beautiful women. The concept of ugliness in the Suweilin civilization actually described a person's inferior intelligence, and this was a race without any ugliness in the first place.
"According to the investigation of the elite scouts we sent to the rear, the survivors who are still conscious, they said … they said …"
Mr. Claude probably felt that this answer was a little strange, he hesitated whether to say it or not, but this hesitation made the High Priestess even more dissatisfied:
"Say it!"
"They said, it was the Devil who led all of this … The local sheriff who was lucky enough to survive swore that he saw the Devil running in the night with his own eyes, and it was them who released the poison into the city's water circulation system. But from the sheriff's mental state, it is very likely that he was scared out of his wits."
The sheriff exhaled and said in a low voice:
"The result of the discussion of the Battle Staff is more inclined to the idea that this is an invasion of space bacteria. You know, although Planet King has never encountered such a situation, our fellow civilization, the Morris Kingdom, was destroyed by a large-scale invasion of a space virus."
"Don't talk about the old things from 200 years ago!"
The High Priestess snorted: "Since it is an invasion of space bacteria, then do the follow-up protective work … Ugly Claude, this is your last chance, in three days, you have to settle this terrible thing, otherwise, when the council needs me to explain, it will be the time your head falls to the ground! Do you remember? "
"Yes! I will do the follow-up work! "
The wise and cold High Priestess and the pitiful sheriff submitted the most acceptable explanation as a report to the Supreme Council. After the council discussed it, they felt that there was no problem, so the storm seemed to be coming to an end soon, and no one thought about the absurd message … This was also a common problem of technological civilizations.
Even in the multifarious universe, the magical civilization was very rare. Magical creatures seemed to be more suitable to stay on the planet than to travel around the universe in magic airships. But to be honest, compared to the organized technological civilization, the magical civilization had the advantage of being mysterious.
"Swoosh!"
A huge shadow walked through the ruins of the border city of Planet King, which had been completely turned into a ghost town. It was a huge Glabrezu, this kind of purple demon that had the appearance of a typical demon, and was also equipped with a large crab-like pincer, specialized in doing some dirty things in other civilizations, they were born with the ability to control the mind, and were also good at infiltration operations.
It was playing with a black chain in its hand, which was obviously a magical item, and on the chain, thousands of crying souls were bound. It walked through the empty ruins that were filled with death and silence, and after a few turns, it strode into the underground cavern.
At the end of the cavern, its companions were nervously setting up a huge demonic teleportation circle. This place was too far away from the Scarred Star System that was being swallowed by the distorted void, and normal army teleportation portals could not be opened at all, so they could only use the most evil ancient magic circle to form a permanent portal, and this kind of portal that could cross the sea of stars required more than just magic.
This evil thing was similar to other demonic creations, it was thirsting for souls …
"Look, the souls are almost all collected."
This huge monster that was more than three meters tall waved the chain in its hand towards its companions, and turned its head to look at the fanatics who were sincerely following behind it, chanting non-stop, and even kissing the ground. Under the threat of death and destruction, the people of Planet King, who prided themselves on being superior to other races, were not as strong as they thought.
Especially when they realized that the god they believed in could not provide them with protection, the worship of evil quietly rose, and quickly spread among the people who were also in despair, and easily captured their lost souls.
Glabrezu Vox had seen this kind of scene many times, but every time it saw this kind of scene, its ugly face would show a proud smile.
"You people used your genes to modify your appearance … Unfortunately, you have no way to equip your minds, and you are even more fragile than humans! Hahaha, pitiful and weak creatures. "
It did not simply kill these pitiful fanatics. After the demonic army landed on this pathetic world, they also needed a group of locals to guide them in the direction of destruction, and that was the meaning of these fanatics' existence.
Vox threw the chain in its hand on the ground, and watched as the wailing souls floated out of the chain. In the state of souls, they shed their noble golden appearance, and were no different from their ugly ancestors. Under Vox's command, these lost souls floated in the air one by one, and then they were devoured by the greedy teleportation circle.
It was like a destructive green halo storm.
"Come, give your all to the arrival of the army. In the apocalypse of this pitiful civilization, your souls shall become one with the supreme glory of the army. The glory of the Overlord shall envelop you, allowing you to completely transcend … Come, accept your destiny!"
