Lord: Sequence Overlord

Chapter 388 Game Administrator and Time Script Manipulation of Game Plot
Chapter 387

The distance between the God's Cross in Rosen's hands and the blue jewel gradually decreased.

With the acceleration of time, his sword strike surpassed the speed of light.

However, when they were less than three meters apart, Rosen began to fall from the sky.

The twelve sacred wings on its back were unable to remain levitating.

The sky was rejecting him, not allowing him to remain in the air any longer.

This mere three-meter distance felt like an insurmountable chasm for an ordinary person.

Rosen's seemingly inevitable surprise attack took an unexpected turn at the last moment.

At a mere three meters, he could certainly unleash the infinite divine power infused within the Cross of God, causing considerable damage. However, this would not be enough to severely injure the King of the Sky, because the Cross of God needed to come into contact with the King of the Sky's divine body.

Even a full-force attack from the twelve-winged Holy Angel King could only inflict some damage on the Sky King.

To achieve a devastating effect, Rosen's true reliance was the eternal curse of depravity attached to the cross of God.

This curse can only corrupt the King of the Sky through direct contact. His forbidden curse miracle painting technique cannot transmit a curse of this level out of thin air. However, the King of the Sky seemed to have known about and was prepared for his sure-fire surprise attack.

Rosen deployed his spacetime domain in an attempt to counteract the suppression of the laws of the sky.

However, the spacetime domain failed to open, as if all his methods had been countered in advance.

Rosen could only unleash boundless divine light, transforming it into a divine assault that struck the cyan orb across a distance of three meters.

With a snap, the precious pearl shattered.

The sleeping King of the Sky spread his wings, which looked like wings that seemed to hang from the sky, and the entire sky was instantly covered by these wings, blocking out all the sunlight within a radius of tens of thousands of miles. The oppressive force, as if the sky were collapsing, acted on Rosen in that instant.

Rosen shattered the Sky Castle and landed on the ground, the entire Sky Royal City almost collapsing under the immense pressure.

Through the opening, the King of the Sky lowered his head and looked down at him with disdain.

"They really were prepared..."

Rosen mimicked the laws of the sky, instantly breaking free from the suppression and soaring into the air.

"who are you?"

Rosen stared at the King of the Sky and questioned him.

He was certain that he was not facing the true King of the Sky.

If the King of the Sky were that powerful, the Sky Kingdom would have become the Sky Empire long ago.

Moreover, how could mere sky laws suppress his spacetime laws to the point that they prevent him from expanding his domain?

Therefore, he was certain that he was not facing the King of the Sky at all.

Only the power of the King's Game itself can bestow such power upon the laws of the sky.

After all, games are like this, with each version having its own meta. If King Game wanted to, it could grant the laws of the sky power far exceeding what a normal version should have at any time, so he already had several suspects.

"I am the GM of King's Game..."

The King of the Sky snapped his fingers, and everything inside and outside the city, except for themselves, froze in place.

It's not that time has stopped, but rather that the game screen is frozen.

"The King's Game is not yet ready for public beta testing. I order you to retreat to the Holy Grail Kingdom."

As the King of the Sky finished speaking, everything seemed to rewind time.

The Holy Grail Army returned to the Holy Grail Kingdom, and all memories of leaving the Holy Grail Kingdom to go on expeditions were erased.

Several of the Golden Dukes also returned to the Golden Lion Kingdom, forgetting that they had betrayed King Lionheart.

The princes who had been besieged and killed by the Holy Grail Knights and the Golden Duke have now all been resurrected.

However, Lionheart did not come back to life. Although the Void Prison in the Realm of the Ancient Gods reappeared, the number of corrupt scholars imprisoned there was greatly reduced. In the end, although the flame of civilization of the Lionheart Kingdom was rekindled, it seemed to be all show and no substance.

Seeing that the Lionheart King had not been resurrected, the Sky King frowned.

He tore off his left arm, which instantly transformed into the Lionheart and appeared where the Lionheart was sleeping.

The deeper rules of the game in the King's Continent were also awakened at this moment, and the King of the Sky lay back down to continue his slumber.

In the Holy Grail Kingdom, Rosen suddenly felt puzzled.

Within his eternal origin, there was an unknown eternal origin.

And for some reason, he felt fear whenever he had the idea of ​​attacking other kingdoms.

The bronze dragon clone in the mysterious study sensed something was wrong and shared its memories with its main body through the Window to the World.

Rosen then remembered everything he had forgotten; his memories had been altered by the so-called game GM, the King of the Sky.

The All-Knowing Demon Eye looked at the kingdom of the three True Gods of Pentacles, but it could no longer see them.

This time, not only were his memories erased, and everything rewound to before the expedition, but even the game rules attached to the Eternal Game's origin were strengthened to conceal the entire King's Continent. It seems that his destruction of the Golden Lion Kingdom has caused the GM a lot of trouble.

But why would you allow the rules of the game to completely obscure the all-knowing magic eye?
You see, the Omniscient Eye used to be able to see things, but now it suddenly can't, which will definitely arouse his suspicion.

Even if the bronze dragon clone didn't warn him, he would have noticed the anomaly immediately.

Seeing that the bronze dragon clone hiding in the mysterious study was unaffected, Rosen immediately understood that although the Sky King, who claimed to be the game GM, had some authority over the King's Game, he was not omnipotent.

There is a high probability that only the Holy Grail Kingdom, Sky Kingdom, and Golden Lion Kingdom will be able to revert to previous versions.

As for the kingdoms of the three true gods of the stars, the King of the Sky no longer has the resources to rewind the game together.

That's why the Omniscient Eye was completely concealed, so that he wouldn't discover the reality that the GM's abilities were limited.

So this King of the Sky, though seemingly powerful, is actually all bark and no bite.

All I did was try to scare him.

If it weren't for the mysterious study, and the clone in the study helping him recall the affected memories, he might have actually been fooled by the King of the Sky. Now that he knows the King is all bark and no bite, he might as well play along with him for a while.

Rosen now possesses the Root Sequence, which can be arbitrarily transformed into almost any extraordinary sequence.

However, this also has a drawback: being a jack-of-all-trades can easily lead to being a master of none.

Therefore, the other extraordinary sequences of mimicry are only auxiliary; the core remains the nobles, painters, and hunters.

Especially the miraculous skills mastered by these extraordinary sequences, skills that even finite omniscience and omnipotence cannot simulate.

However, miracle skills also vary in strength. The strength of a miracle skill mastered at Sequence 9 is definitely much different from that mastered at Sequence 1. Even if one's own strength increases and the miracle skill becomes more powerful, there will still be a gap between Sequence 9 and Sequence 1.

Rosen's forbidden curse is a miracle skill mastered at Sequence 2, and he has now become a true god.

Forbidden curses are very effective at cursing the true God, but cursing the great true God is difficult to achieve in a short period of time.

Therefore, he plans to further enhance the Forbidden Curse skill.

This requires him to use the Source Essence Imprint, a law skill he mastered in Sequence 1.

Through this skill, he can share his extraordinary abilities with all painters.

Then all the painters use this skill, and the more they use it, the more feedback they receive, which strengthens the skill over time.

However, the Source Imprint can only imprint ordinary extraordinary skills, and cannot imprint miracle skills at all.

But that was in the past; Rosen now possesses the source of eternal miracles.

If Source Imprinting could become a Miracle Skill, perhaps it would be possible to imprint Miracle Skills and share them with all painters.

Rosen directly extracted a drop of Ancient God's True Blood from the Heart of the Ancient God. This was the Ancient God's True Blood that had been condensed in the Heart of the Ancient God after he advanced to the True God realm.

The Eternal Miracle Origin merged with the True Blood of the Ancient God, and the power of both was infused into the Source Imprint.

A moment later, Rosen had mastered the new miracle skill.

[Miracle Imprint: Miracle Skill]

[Miracle Attribute: Can imprint a Miracle skill and share it with all Miracle Imprint sub-entities]

[Miracle Trait: Unity] Rosen ultimately did not upgrade the Source Imprint because he was worried that upgrading would prevent him from continuing to imprint and spread ordinary skills.

As expected, his worries were justified, so he simply recreated a new miracle skill based on the source imprint.

From then on, Source Imprint shared ordinary skills with all painters, while Miracle Imprint shared miracle skills.

Although only one Miracle Skill can be shared at a time, the power of unity is enough to bring about a qualitative change in that Miracle Skill.

The concept of "unity of purpose" means that the more people who share and master this miraculous skill, the stronger its development will be, and the greater the benefits it will bring to the miraculous skill's origin. It can leverage the power of countless people to help upgrade and strengthen the miraculous skill.

After much deliberation, Rosen ultimately chose to share the Time Scripture as the miracle ability.

[Time Scenario: Miracle Skill]

[Miracle Attribute: Automatically fills in missing parts of the past and future in the script]

[Miracle Trait: Picture Script]

This is a miracle skill bound to the Void Book, which allows one to silently manipulate parts of fate through the Time Script.

Time Script is very good at scheming, but Rosen rarely uses this miracle skill.

Because there's no need to use opponents that are too weak, and it's difficult to make a difference against opponents that are too strong.

Those who manipulate fate are best at bullying the weak, and manipulating the fate of the strong is never an easy task.

Ultimately, the timeline wasn't strong enough, but now with the Miracle Imprint, things are different.

Rosen quickly shared the Time Scripture skill with all the painters through the Miracle Imprint.

Hundreds of millions of painters simultaneously discover that they have acquired a miraculous skill out of thin air.

Over the years, Rosen has used Source Imprints to share skills with all painters. The in-game store within Horror Park even allows direct redemption of all skills that can be shared with Source Imprints, making the painter profession the most sought-after in the new world.

Now that they've acquired a miraculous skill for free, almost every painter is happily studying the Time Script.

The more people who have mastered it, the more research is done on the time-travel script, and the stronger the feedback that the time-travel script brings from everyone working together.

Rosen opened the Void Album, which was now vastly different from what it used to be.

The Void Album is now a divine and extraordinary artifact.

In Sequence 1, in addition to mastering the Source Imprint, he also mastered the Law Skill: Law Illustration.

With this skill, he can draw the laws he has mastered into paintings.

Then all the paintings are shared with all the painters. As long as the painters copy these paintings, they can quickly master the laws and authority that constitute these paintings. In fact, if the painters master the laws and authority that surpass their predecessors, they can also master some of the laws and authority that surpass their predecessors.

Since mastering the fundamental law, one can use it to mimic all laws.

Rosen then created spiritual paintings depicting all known laws and shared them with all painters so that they could copy them.

These spiritual paintings, entirely composed of laws, were all transformed into canvases by the Dimensional Painting Skill and integrated into the Void Album. Finally, the Eternal Source was used to create canvases that were then integrated into the cover, easily transforming the Void Album into a divine and extraordinary artifact.

Rosen flipped to the dimensional canvas corresponding to the laws of fate, and then used the root sequence to mimic the playwright sequence.

With the help of various skills from the playwright sequence, he began writing the script for the Sky Kingdom.

The playwright didn't stop there; he switched to the painter's sequence and began drawing illustrations.

The power of two extraordinary sequences is perfectly integrated into the Miracle Skill Time Script through the Void Book.

Because the painting process used the miraculous painting technique, the Hand of God, his divine consciousness could descend upon the Sky Kingdom from God's perspective through a time-travel script composed of words and comic strips. In this process, he even used the Omniscient Eye to enhance the effect of God's perspective.

Why is it that sometimes the all-knowing magic eye can see, and sometimes it is covered up and nothing can be seen?

It's simply a matter of spear and shield; if you have the means to spy, others will develop techniques to conceal it.

But whether it's a spear or a shield, only by standing still can you be restrained.

The King of the Sky can strengthen the shield to conceal the Omniscient Eye's prying eyes, and he can also enhance the Omniscient Eye's prying eyes through other means. At this moment, with the combined enhancement of various abilities such as the Hand of God, the Miracle Imprint, and the Time Script, the concealment that shrouded the Sky Kingdom was finally broken.

Rosen continued to use the Art World Descent technique, bringing all the events within the Time Script into reality.

The entire Sky Kingdom has been silently enveloped by the script of time.

In just a few days, the Sky Kingdom has descended into chaos.

Every place has classes and oppression, and there are both poor and rich people.

Faced with oppression, countless people have no choice but to compromise and submit in order to survive.

When oppression reaches its extreme, when the bottom line of survival is reached and compromise can no longer be made, the voices of the lower classes will grow louder and louder, eventually leading to a backlash that overthrows the existing class. This is one of the fundamental reasons for the change of civilizations.

Although the Sky Kingdom is strictly hierarchical, it has not completely cut off the path for those at the bottom to rise in status.

Because the Sky King who rules the Sky Kingdom is not a foolish ruler, and the princes who have ruled the Sky Kingdom for 23,000 years are not mediocre either, the development of the Sky Kingdom is far from reaching a point where the lower classes cannot tolerate it.

However, when Rosen drew the illustrations for the Time Script, the God-like pigments he used contained the concepts of eternal games and eternal fall.

The game's core concept, Eternal Game, successfully integrates the power of time-based storylines into the King's Game, making it a fundamental setting of the game.

The eternal source of depravity aroused the rebellious spirit of all the lower classes to the greatest extent.

This resistance didn't just come from the lowest levels; the lowest level resisted the middle level, the middle level resisted the nobility, the nobility resisted the high nobility, and the high nobility resisted the royal family. All those rebellious thoughts that were once buried deep in their hearts, all those things that they only dared to think about but not do, all came to fruition.

The morale of the entire Sky Kingdom collapsed instantly, and chaos erupted from the bottom up.

Even though many people sensed something was wrong and felt it was related to corrupt scholars.

However, only a minority can remain clear-headed; the vast majority have already fallen into the manipulation of the timeline.

One count sensed something was wrong and immediately suppressed his dissatisfaction with the marquis.

But the very next day, the count's second son offended the marquis's second son and was killed.

He could still tolerate it, but on the third day, the earl's heir went to cause trouble for the marquis's second son, and ended up being beaten half to death by the marquis's heir.

If I keep tolerating this, I'll turn into a turtle. Of course, I'll settle scores and seek revenge.

Everyone in the Sky Kingdom seems to have gone mad, and everything is still within the timeline of the script.

In less than half a month, cities in the Sky Kingdom had been reduced to ruins due to internal strife, and then crashed from the sky. Although a small number of strong people survived, their hands were already stained with blood due to the ongoing internal strife, and they could not turn back.

Finally, after a month, even the Sky City was destroyed due to the internal strife between the Golden Duke and the Prince.

The Sky Castle is buried in ruins, and the Sky King remains asleep.

King's Game is a game, and games have a main storyline.

The king cannot awaken until the main storyline begins.

Unless invaders from the four kingdoms, including the Holy Grail, break into the main storyline, the king will not awaken to restore order.

Rosen did not leave the Holy Grail Kingdom, so he did not directly enter the main storyline.

Although the power of the Time Script intruded into the main storyline, because the Time Script was drawn using the essence of the Eternal Game as its pigment, it became part of the King's Game and a kingdom side story recognized by the main storyline.

This meant that even if the Sky King wanted to wake up, the Sky Kingdom, which had perished in internal strife, would not be able to.

Rosen spared the Sky Kingdom and began to destroy the Golden Lion Kingdom again through the time-travel script.

More and more kingdoms near the Holy Grail Kingdom were destroyed, and Rosen only temporarily stopped after destroying nine kingdoms in total.

Because the Eternal Game's essence is insufficient, without this as a pigment, the Time Script will be judged by the King's Game as an external invasion of the main storyline, thus directly awakening the sleeping king, or even directly awakening the so-called GM who has parasitized and replaced part of the king.

Rosen destroyed nine kingdoms and discovered that the kings of three of them had problems.

Unsurprisingly, it's no longer the original person; they've been quietly replaced by the GM.

Rosen didn't move from the three kingdoms, but went to the remaining six kingdoms. While the Miracle Flame devoured the Civilization Flame, he easily killed the six kings who were in an extremely weak state after waking up due to the fall of their kingdoms.

The Miracle Trait Eternal Flame is getting closer and closer to transforming into the Eternal Flame Origin.

The King of Cups Miracle Tarot card has been upgraded to God +6, indicating that only by slaying the King can its level be enhanced. He has a feeling that if he completely destroys the three kingdoms, both the Eternal Flame and the King of Cups Miracle Tarot card will undergo a qualitative change from quantitative change.
