I changed the timeline with the game.

Chapter 1014: The Past of the Human Federation (Happy New Year to Everyone)
Even this is not the most important thing.
What's even more terrifying is that the giant light-blade axe made of super-high-grade alloy was not spared by the old man's light swing.

The energy of the originally indestructible axe blade, which was emitting a deadly cold glow, dissipated in an instant, like a flame being extinguished.

The axe handle was directly slapped into a bare iron handle by a palm, lying twisted and deformed to the side, blending in with the dilapidated scene around it, as if silently telling of the old man's terrifying strength.

now,

The remaining group of bloodthirsty inquisitors seemed to be seeing this scene for the first time.

On weekdays, they follow the leader of the Inquisitor to kill whomever they want and to sentence whomever they want to death.

Killing people like crazy,
I thought I had seen countless bloody and horrific scenes, but now I saw the boss die more easily than a fly.
These bastards in the tin can finally felt what "shudder" meant!
even,

The Inquisitor of the Eternal Dawn, who should have undergone severe trials and had long lost the emotion of "fear",

now,

They seemed to be trapped in boundless fear.

But if Su Wen were here, he would definitely understand.
That was the supreme pressure of the rage of a high-level transcendent being.

because,

Just before when he faced Alalina, he had personally felt such a huge pressure.

One after another, the Knights of the Inquisition who were disguised as guards inside the Silver Star Ring felt their legs go weak.

Their bodies trembled involuntarily, and even the weapons in their hands were a little unsteady. Some people even dropped them directly to the ground, making crisp sounds.

The fanaticism in the Inquisitor's eyes was instantly replaced by fear. He wanted to turn around and escape, but found that his legs seemed to be nailed to the ground and he could not move.

Yes,

It's too late.

The old man seemed not to even look at the meat paste.
He just smiled and said to the little girl who stuck her head out of the house:

“Little Lucia, although I am not your biological grandfather, Boyle’s grandfather was once my apprentice.

Then,

Now I will teach you a simple move. This move once had a very complicated name.

But now, it's just:

【forging】."

In an instant, a strange light shone around the old man, and countless stars seemed to twinkle in the light. Even a huge wrought iron shadow appeared behind him:
[Legendary Features:
Great Craftsman Alpharetas - Forging - Star Rainbow Molten Fire! (Level 6)].

As this string of characters appeared,
The temperature around seemed to rise a few degrees in an instant, and the air became scorching hot.

that's it,
Accompanied by the master craftsman's hammer falling suddenly.

【boom】

The sound of metal clashing!
With a deafening roar,

The blazing sparks burst out like the corona at the edge of a star, instantly tearing apart the surrounding air.

The light was so blinding that it seemed as if fragments of the sun were exploding in the air. Blazing flames and ashes swept in like a tide, completely engulfing the group of Judgment Knights.

Their armor twisted and deformed in the high temperature, and their figures gradually blurred in the firelight, eventually turning into ashes and merging into the blazing sun mark.

Three seconds later,

The air was filled with a burning smell, as if even time was burned out at this moment.

But little Lucia didn't seem to be too scared of this scene.

She didn't understand what had happened, but she knew that the old man whom Sister Boyle Jones asked her to follow the map had saved her.

So the little girl actually thanked the old craftsman earnestly in such a background full of molten fire and blood:
"Thank you for saving me."

But when I heard her say that,
The old man Alpharetas just laughed loudly, clasped his hands together and said to the neighbors around him:
"okay,
I just killed a few servants of the Rotten Glow. You don't need to worry about it. Go back now."

In the shadows of the street, several middle-aged men and women who had just put on their equipment poked their heads out. Before they could put down their weapons, they heard the words "the killing is over." They looked at each other and felt a little bored, and put away their various weapons.

One of the burly ladies couldn't help but spit after she glanced at the blood on the ground, with a bit of dissatisfaction in her tone:

"Old man,
You are too heavy-handed, could you at least leave some for us?"

Alpharetas snorted.
The shadow of the hammer that was still burning with the fire of the stellar corona furnace slowly dissipated.
“What to leave behind?

The little girl is scared, can you guys comfort her?"

But when the aunt heard his words, her face full of flesh showed a trace of disdain:
“My daughter is almost twenty-three.

Seven of them are in high positions in the joint military departments of various planets, and five are directors of large companies that are in the top 1,000 in the interstellar trade list.

There are also many pioneering nobles of the Human Alliance.

If I didn't want to fight with that bastard who took office a hundred years ago and directly gave the Human Federation the name of "Empire",

Who wants to stay in this crappy place?

Tsk tsk tsk, I finally found an opportunity to take advantage of the situation, but I didn't expect that an old guy like you would get there first."

As soon as she finished speaking, a middle-aged man wearing goggles beside her interrupted. He patted the energy rifle in his hand and said with a smile:
"Come on,

What does that mean to you?
I was the boss of an interstellar pirate group for a while, but I saw through the greedy faces of those guys who issued the [Privateer License].

It is probably still floating in the universe now."

Another old man in a tattered cloak also spoke slowly:
“You young people only know how to brag.

Alpharell and I witnessed the Big Collapse with our own eyes. The entire galaxy was in chaos. If it weren't for old bones like us, how could we be here today?"

The aunt sneered and waved her hand:
"Come on,

You old men, you have said the same thing eight hundred times.

But speaking of it, your hammer was really powerful today, even a third-level Judgment Knight couldn't withstand it."

"Level 3,
A fifth-level warrior can be killed with one hammer."

The former interstellar pirate poured a mouthful of white wine directly into his mouth.

But the old craftsman did not respond, but just raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile.

When the others saw this, they all started laughing, and the tense atmosphere on the street immediately dissipated a lot.

The old lady also held Lucia's hand. She was really happy looking at this pretty girl, so she couldn't help asking:

"Is this old Jones's granddaughter or great-granddaughter?"

"She has nothing to do with old Jones, but she is still the sister of old Jones's granddaughter."

Alfareitas didn't say much;

As a sixth-rank master craftsman, he could tell at a glance that Lucia possessed a sublimation pedigree that transcended that of mortals.

even,

That brilliant sublimation spectrum is powerful enough to rank among the top 5% not to mention ordinary people, perhaps even among the extraordinary ones.

But the old man didn't want to say too much, he had been through too much.

So in the end I just smiled and shook my head:

“But that little girl Boyle came here just to ask me to protect her.

Ugh,
Neither she, nor her father, nor her grandfather Jones, my little apprentice,
In the end, they all embarked on the path of rebellion against the Eternal Dawn.

In this decision about courage and the future of civilization, we who have parted ways with the Human Union may not be able to match them any more."
