Lord: Sequence Overlord

Chapter 337 The Earth Dwarf King and the Ring of Judgment
Chapter 336

Chaotic seas, Titan Heavy Industries headquarters, New Titan Fortress.

The Titan Fortress of the past was a war weapon of Sequence 2, and although it was the worst of its kind, its value was still incredibly high. Now, the old Titan Fortress has long been moved to the Ancient God Realm by Rosen.

This new Titan Fortress is only at Sequence 3 in terms of transcendence level.

Under the cover of the wolf totem and by stealthily moving through the Void Shadowlands, Rosen easily infiltrated Titan Fortress without attracting the attention of any dwarves. Although the Titan Heavy Industries was mainly backed by the Titans, the majority of its members were dwarves.

The reason is simple: Titans are too big, and a Titan who has the ability to change his size is at least a demigod.

The mechanical Titans now stationed at Titan Fortress are of extraordinary level, even reaching Sequence 1.

This is definitely a high-end configuration. However, until they find someone who can plunder all three companies, the Titans can only send a Sequence 1 mechanical Titan to oversee the operation in order to ensure that Titan Fortress is not wiped out again.

Rosen secretly sneaked into the mechanical laboratory of the mechanical Titan, who was conducting mechanical research at the time.

Just as they were about to pull him into the sealed domain and capture him alive, their seventh sense suddenly reacted.

It's not a dangerous reaction, but rather that taking action at this moment would lead to unexpected consequences.

After mastering the laws of space and time, his seventh sense's perception of time was enhanced more than tenfold.

Therefore, Rosen would not doubt his own senses; the mechanical titan that caused his capture to fail must possess a method left behind by a true god.

Moreover, since it's a passively triggered method, capturing the mechanical titan will most likely alert the enemy.

Rosen activates the canvas of the mind, gradually reflecting and permeating the divine consciousness of the mechanical titan.

The attempt failed, proving that the divine essence of the mechanical titan was indeed protected by power at the level of a true god.

Rosen summoned the Miracle Sequence Historical Camera from his mimicry godhood and began filming the mechanical Titan's mechanical laboratory.

Historical cameras can capture past history and brief future history, and the laws of history and time can further enhance the effect of historical cameras.

Through the camera, Rosen saw the history that had taken place in the mechanical laboratory.

It turns out that this mechanical titan is actually a descendant of the true god, which is why he has the life-saving means left by the true god. He also obtained the method he most wanted to know to contact the dwarf kingdom, which requires the use of a void portal provided by the dwarf kingdom for location.

This void portal is now sealed within the mechanical space where the Mechanical Titans store their mechanical creations.

The difficulty of silently taking a void portal from a mechanical space is about the same as the difficulty of silently stealing a painting from his void gallery.

It seems that taking it by force won't work; we'll have to find a way to outsmart them.

Rosen quickly found the demigod dwarf inside Titan Fortress, but this was not a descendant of the true god.

The ancient gods shackled and bound him, and his mind controlled and enslaved his divine self.

With ease, the demigod dwarf has been turned into a puppet.

Half an hour later, the mechanical Titan activated a void portal next to the energy core of Titan Fortress.

As allies, the mechanical titans could not refuse the demigod dwarves' demands.

I've already said I have urgent business to attend to and need to return to the Dwarf Kingdom. Refusing would inevitably cause a rift in our relationship.

Rosen, hiding within the consciousness of the demigod dwarf, manipulated the demigod dwarf to pass through the void portal.

……

In the dwarven kingdom of Furnace City, the activation of the void portal has attracted the attention of the dwarven guards.

They only relaxed their guard slightly when they saw that the person who had been teleported was a demigod dwarf.

However, the necessary announcements still need to be made; this is not the time for the demigod dwarves to return to the capital.

However, before the dwarven guards stationed at the void portal could report, Mind Control had already silently taken control of them.

The ancient god's sacrificial artifact possesses a divinity level as high as 126, a level of divinity only forbidden gods possess.

Mind control over dwarven guards who are not even demigods is not difficult at all.

Having been free from foreign invasion for many years, the Dwarf Kingdom's defenses have become somewhat lax.

The dwarven guards continued to perform their duties, while Rosen slipped into the shadows and quietly left the hall where the void portal was located.

The main hall is located in a corner of the palace, which is situated on a massive volcano.

Rosen looked out from the palace walls. Below the mountain was a brightly lit underground city. He could hear the roar of steam engines and see chimneys spewing thick smoke in the sky. The smoke did not pollute the environment; instead, it rose into the sky and turned into blue sky and white clouds.

Open the Void Album, and it transforms into a canvas, while the energy behind it automatically materializes into an easel.

Rosen sat on the wall and began to draw, a magical brush appearing in his hand.

His current divine strength is at most 126, and his Time Drawing speed can be increased by up to 126 times. However, the Time Law will amplify the skill effect by ten times, and the Painting Law can amplify it by another ten times. The painting speed increase brought by Time Drawing has reached an astonishing 12,600 times.

His hand created countless afterimages, and soon the exact same dwarven capital city appeared on the canvas.

Although the Mind Canvas can directly reflect and replicate, painting by hand can overlay the effects of God's paint and integrate more painting techniques. This painting uses the techniques of the Hand of God, and he can now manipulate everything in the Dwarven capital through this painting, relying on the miraculous properties of God's will.

Rosen turned back and looked mockingly into the depths of the palace. He had already finished painting, but the Earth Dwarf King was still not ready.
At first, he thought it was because the palace dwarf guards were too lax.

But he soon discovered that it didn't matter whether the dwarven guards were lax or not. The entire dwarven capital was the divine kingdom of the Earth Dwarf King, who held the power of the kingdom and had already detected his infiltration the moment he appeared.

However, the Earth Dwarf King did not make a direct move, but instead pretended not to have noticed him and secretly stalled for time.

Rosen no longer needs to draw by hand to perform his prophetic drawing skills.

The Mind Canvas allows you to generate precognitive images directly on the screen at any time.

However, hand-drawn images are generally more effective than those automatically generated by the Mind Canvas.

However, with the laws of death, fate, and time, it is still not difficult to see through the precognitive paintings presented directly on the canvas of the mind that the dwarf capital was shattered by a thunderous hammer falling from the sky, and that the one who personally destroyed the dwarf capital was none other than the Earth Dwarf King.

This dwarf king wasn't crazy, he just didn't take the dwarves of the dwarf capital seriously.

I don't care about sacrificing all the dwarves in the royal city, as long as I can kill him.

Rosen's initial idea was naively to threaten the Earth Dwarf King with the life and death of all the dwarves in the royal city.

Now that the Earth Dwarf King wants to kill these dwarves, he insists on protecting them.

These dwarves are all top-notch blacksmiths and enchanters, possessing the most essential heritage of dwarven civilization.

Deep in the void, thunderclouds with a diameter of tens of thousands of miles continued to compress.

Finally, a short-handled double hammer made of lightning, with a diameter of a thousand miles, was formed and spun, shattering the void as it fell toward the dwarf capital. At the same time, the entire outer perimeter of the dwarf capital was distorted by terrifying gravity, forming a black hole force field.

In the blink of an eye, the earth-shattering thunder hammer crashed down on the dwarven capital.

Through the painting in his hand, Rosen cast the spell of the Dwarf King's City, causing the realm of painting to envelop the city.

Then, he directly cast a group humanoid body-binding spell within the area, rendering almost everyone in the dwarf capital city unable to resist. Finally, he cast the Original Artwork Sealing Technique, and in the blink of an eye, more than 90% of the dwarf capital city disappeared.

Having successfully evacuated tens of millions of dwarves from the city, Rosen stood on the wall, letting the thunderous hammer shatter him to pieces.

The giant volcano that housed the entire dwarf capital was instantly destroyed, and less than a tenth of the royal palace remained intact.

Everything that disappeared was shattered by the lightning, leaving behind liquid lightning that flickered with endless arcs of electricity.

However, in the next instant, a terrifying scream of pain came from deep within the dwarf palace.

The Earth Dwarf King used the Divine Descent Transformation, transforming from a dwarf into a giant with a short stature, covered in a layer of earth-yellow armor, and his surface was wrapped with countless lightning bolts. However, the Earth Dwarf King is now missing his left arm, and half of his body has turned into charcoal.

Rosen, who had been reduced to dust, appeared unharmed above the dwarf palace.

While Rosen was drawing, he wasn't simply painting.

He also secretly used the Equivalent Contract to forcibly sign an Equivalent Contract with the Earth Dwarf King, which forbade them from harming each other. The price of violating the contract was not only to bear all the damage he had caused, but also to compensate for the three most precious treasures he possessed.

After this equivalent contract was signed, Rosen could not harm the Earth Dwarf King in the slightest unless the Earth Dwarf King made a move.

Unless he breaks the contract, which is still in effect, the Earth Dwarf King's act of harming him constitutes a violation of the equivalent contract. Therefore, the power of the equivalent contract not only transfers the damage he suffers, but may even deprive the Earth Dwarf King of his three treasures.

A void fluctuation flashed within the Royal Treasury, revealing an additional ring and a forging hammer.

Only two treasures were obtained; the third treasure was not successfully acquired. While the Equivalent Contract is powerful, there's always a way to counter it.

The Earth Dwarf King's damage was strong enough that the equivalent contract could not be transferred, so Rosen was the one who was severely injured. Similarly, if you want to get the treasure that is forcibly compensated for violating the contract, the premise is that the treasure is out of the Earth Dwarf King's control.

The fact that the ring and forging hammer were collected is probably due to the Earth Dwarf King's severe injury from losing his left arm.

If the Earth Dwarf King's injuries had been less severe, it would have been almost impossible for him to collect the rings and forging hammers.

Deep within the royal palace, the giant-form Earth Dwarf King, panting heavily, looked down at Rosen.

This strange human being posed a threat to him no less than that posed to a true god.

Although the injuries were not minor, it wouldn't be difficult to recover by getting back on the ground.

The real reason he dared not make a move was that two precious treasures had been taken away. Without those two treasures, he was at most a slightly stronger god, and if he continued to fight, the chances of being defeated and killed would be even higher. So he was hesitating whether to fight to the death.

If fighting to the death could lead to mutual destruction with the enemy, the Earth Dwarf King might consider it.

The problem is that the fatal blow he just delivered with all his might was completely redirected by the enemy onto himself.

Realizing that taking action would only lead to his own death, he couldn't even bring himself to drag the enemy down with him.

The Earth Dwarf King's rage was instantly extinguished by a bucket of cold water.

While the two sides were locked in a standoff, Rosen was already inspecting the treasures that had been sent to the royal treasury for suppression after the equivalent contract was stripped away.

The entirely blue ring was the Judgment Ring he had come to the Dwarf Kingdom to obtain.

As for the forging hammer, its specific effects are not yet apparent.

Rosen activated the data transmission and silently disappeared from the dwarf kingdom, temporarily withdrawing from the battlefield.

He didn't want to kill the Earth Dwarf King for two reasons.

First of all, the Earth Dwarves are not strictly speaking dwarves. They are the extraordinary beings of the Beast King species, formed by countless dwarves who were driven to the brink of despair and voluntarily sacrificed themselves to merge their bloodline into a mountain, thus bringing the mountain to life. The Earth Dwarves, who are at the demigod level, are born as titled demigods.

The Earth Dwarf King went a step further, being formed from the unintelligent Earth Dwarfs who developed advanced intelligence.

Therefore, the Earth Dwarf King was born with the power of a forbidden god. Even a true god would find it difficult to kill him as long as he stood on the earth, let alone the fact that the dwarf kingdom was the territory that the Earth Dwarf King had managed for countless years.

Therefore, defeating the Earth Dwarf King is not difficult; killing the Earth Dwarf King is more difficult than killing a true god.

On the other hand, the Earth Dwarf King is also the greatest blacksmith in the Overworld.

There are definitely no more than five beings in the entire main world capable of creating extraordinary artifacts that are truly divine.

So Rosen wanted to capture the Earth Dwarf King alive. Although he couldn't capture him alive now, he could capture him alive once he became a god.

The Earth Dwarf King was on guard for a long time before he was certain that the intruders had truly left.

Looking at the devastated dwarven capital, he was filled with an unprecedented sense of humiliation and defeat, his eyes practically popping out of their sockets.

……

After returning to the Dragon Realm, Rosen began to use his royal will to erase the divinity of the Earth Dwarf King within the treasures. At the same time, he released the Ancient God's Shackles to bind and seal the two treasures. Finally, he used his royal power to plunder and gradually refine the two treasures.

The first item refined was the Ring of Judgment, a miraculous treasure with even stronger attributes than the legendary one.

Without hesitation, Rosen used the power of the Lesser World Tree to integrate the Ring of Judgment into the Miracle Sequence's extraordinary essence.

[The Ring of Judgment: The Miracle Sequence]

[Level: Sequence 0]

[Miracle Attribute: Capable of controlling the Judgment Thunder Punishment formed by the Judgment Authority and the Thunder Authority]

Miracle Ability: Judgment of Sin

A blue ring appeared on Rosen's fingertip, followed by a surge of lightning containing the power of judgment in his palm.

The unique miracle trait, Judgment of Sin, is extremely terrifying. As long as the opponent is guilty, the deeper their sins, the stronger the damage caused by the Judgment Lightning. The Judgment Ring, combined with the Royal Law and the Criminal Hunter's inviolable sins, is enough to create a terrifying chain of damage.

Rosen originally intended to use ancient god ritual techniques to integrate the Ring of Judgment into the divine realm.

I didn't expect the attributes to be so appealing; I couldn't resist incorporating them into the Miracle Sequence.

Now, the Miracle Sequence has surpassed it and become the highest-level extraordinary sequence under Rosen's control.

Logically, when a miracle sequence advances to sequence 0, the extraordinary source material should detach from the mimic godhood and condense into a new godhood.

However, this is not the case, which shows that the mimicry of a god is in no way inferior to the real god.

However, the Miracle Sequence is not without its changes. Unlike other sequences that have their own skill systems, the Miracle Sequence's skill system is a fusion of the Miracle characteristics of Miracle Treasures. Furthermore, all Miracle Treasures can grow in sync with the Miracle Sequence.

The Ancient Sacred Bell, originally Sequence 9, has now been upgraded to Sequence 0.

This terrifying growth ability is the only exclusive ability of the Miracle Sequence before Sequence 0.

The Miracle Sequence has now advanced to Sequence 0 and is developing its second exclusive ability.

Rosen doesn't yet know what kind of ability will emerge, so he plans to master the Royal Judgment first.

All the conditions for mastering the Royal Judgment have now been met. With the continuous infusion of the power of the Judgment Authority, the skill rune of the Royal Judgment within the Mimic Godhood was quickly perfected, becoming the third Sequence 1 Noble Skill he mastered.

[Royal Judgment: Combined with the Glorious Map, it allows for the free judgment of all things within the domain of the Royal Kingdom]

The skill "Royal Judgment" aligns with all the authority and laws that Rosen possesses.

This is his most terrifying method of inflicting damage, aside from the Ten Directions Annihilation.

With a weapon at his disposal, Rosen's murderous intent rose. He pushed open the window to the world and looked at the giant dragons flying in the Dragon Realm, unable to contain himself any longer.

If we capture a few more divine dragons alive, it won't be difficult to restore the Dragon Binding Rope to sequence 0.

Given his current strength and influence, conquering the Dragon Realm is no longer impossible.

However, after weighing the options, Rosen decided to wait a little longer.

He could now defeat or even kill two dragon gods, but he couldn't do it silently. If a dragon god, driven to the brink of death, were to reveal everything about the Dragon Realm before its demise, countless eyes would immediately be fixed on the Dragon Realm.
He wasn't even a god, yet he had the ability to kill two dragon gods and seize the dragon realm.

This is enough to make all the true gods uneasy, enough to make all the true gods covet the secret of why he is so powerful.

Even the great true god might suspect that he possesses a great treasure and then secretly come to his door.

I am strong and my enemy is weak; the dragons are already at my mercy.

Rather than killing the goose that lays the golden eggs, it's better to leave the two dragon gods alive to give him more time and space to grow.

Having completed Noble Sequence 1, Rosen began preparing to master the skills of Painter Sequence 1.

He had already reached the pinnacle of his understanding of the laws of painting by Sequence 2. At Sequence 2, he was already capable of creating spiritual paintings at Sequence 0. Therefore, the three skills at Sequence 1 were more about pursuing the integration of the laws of painting with other laws.

Another aspect is expanding the concept of painting and broadening the overall power of the painter sequence.

Therefore, the first painting skill that Lawson needs to master is a special law skill called the Law Picture Book.

This law skill has no defensive or damaging capabilities. Instead, it uses abstract painting techniques to depict various laws and authorities, which are then shared with all painters through the ancient tree of painting law sequences.

From then on, all painters could accelerate their mastery of various powers and laws by copying and drawing from the Book of Laws.

On the surface, this appears to be a capacity for selflessness.

By sacrificing their own valuable skill slots, they made it easier for all painters to master different powers and laws.

In fact, rulebooks can not only help painters master authority and rules, but when the authority and rules mastered by the painters surpass those of the rulebooks, the rulebooks can also imitate the different authority and rules mastered by the painters, thereby making themselves more perfect and powerful.

As long as the Law Picture Book continues to grow, it will eventually be able to bear all authority and all laws.

As the originator of the Law Picture Book, Lawson can easily grasp all the authority and laws within it.

At that time, he may be able to sublimate the laws of spacetime and truly master the world laws that only ancient gods can master. Even if he cannot master the world laws of the old and new worlds, he can master the world laws that belong only to the ancient god's true world and are unique to him.
