Nobody told me this wasn't a game.

You have acquired the wonder of 'foolish ambition'.

A foolish ambition, one for everyone.

Within a community, only one wonder of the same type can be active. Zuo Chang brought four wonders to 96511 this time, but even if they are all installed, only one will be counted as a "seat".

but--

Wonders can be traded.

A dark gold scroll appeared in Zuo Chang's palm. Once the scroll was unrolled, "Foolish Ambition" would manifest within the community.

Zuo Chang could easily trade with generals from other communities.

Exchange Wonder Scrolls for Wonder Scrolls, and you will have four different wonders!

Furthermore, "foolish ambition" is exceptionally rare, and its value is not the same as that of ordinary wonders that have long since become commonplace. If the other party is generous enough to exchange foolish ambition for two ordinary wonders, it is probably not wishful thinking.

It can be said that the Scroll of Wonders is the biggest gain from this Grand War.

It was very important for Zuo Chang, who was starting from scratch.

Then, there are individual rewards.

After the team rewards are announced, the gods will give unique rewards based on each person's performance in this event.

[You severely defeated the prince of the Golden Empire, plundering a portion of its national destiny. However, the Golden Empire has long since perished, so what you received was the 'destiny of a fallen nation'.]

[The Aura of National Destruction (Unupgradeable): To destroy a person, first drive them mad. You can grant the target a bonus to all attributes (the bonus multiplier is equal to the target's cultivation level). As the duration increases, the bonus will also increase (up to a maximum of three times the target's cultivation level). The Golden Empire lasted 388 years. The target will die instantly after moving more than (388 meters). The Aura of National Destruction cannot be dispelled and ignores magic immunity. After (388 seconds), this skill will automatically expire.]

Your abilities have impressed Basil, who has placed her hopes on you and bestowed upon you the Sword of the Warrior.

[You have obtained the Holy Sword: The Hero's Sword.]

Reward information kept emerging, but eventually fell silent.

In addition to the team rewards, Zuo Chang also received a unique skill: a holy sword.

To be honest, the rewards are extremely generous!

only……

What's with this "Kingdom's Luck"? Has the Blood Demon unleashed his ultimate attack?

That was close! Just a hair's breadth away!

Tomorrow's update might be a little earlier.

Chapter 240 The Devil of Fun

After the rewards were distributed, Zuo Chang felt the power of spacetime enveloping him, and teleportation was in progress.

He closed his eyes and looked at his control panel.

To be precise, it's about looking at the "monthly tasks":

[Ascend the Godhood Climb: Lead your team in the 'Grand Struggle' and achieve Grand rank to obtain some interesting information.]

The task has turned green.

Zuo Chang always felt that the task of "ascending the divine steps" was too simple.

As if afraid he'd miss any "interesting information," the gods didn't even require him to win the Grand Tournament. Zuo Chang had already accomplished that task back in the Tower of Choices—

He participated in the battle for the Grand Slam title;

I also got a Grand Order blind box.

Click with your mind to claim your reward.

[You have exceeded the requirements for ascending the Divine Path; the information you have obtained will be more detailed.]

A prompt has appeared.

Beneath the statue of the Heavenly King in the Heavenly King Castle lies an ancient ruin. This ruin is the legendary 'Mysterious Dungeon,' which is intricately connected to the 'Promised Day.'

[Additional intelligence: Several members of the Divine Sound Society have discovered the ruins and are attempting to enter.]

[Additional information: Only those carrying "sacred artifacts" are allowed to enter.]

[Additional Information: You have obtained a map of the first level of the ruins.]

An old parchment scroll appeared in Zuo Chang's hands.

Zuo Chang did not rush to open it; he simply said, "War Demon, I grant you access to my field of vision."

"Huh? Did you see something strange?"

The voice of the war demon rang out lazily.

It resides within Zuo Chang's body and possesses the ability to access his five senses. However, as a battle-hardened and experienced demon, the War Demon knows its limits.

Normally, it only perceives the world in its own way.

Whether human or demon, everyone hates others intruding on their "private space".

What you hear, see, think, and feel are all private matters.

"I'm in."

It beckoned, entered Zuo Chang's field of vision, and saw everything Zuo Chang saw—

Then, a shiver ran through me!

Zuo Chang sensed its surging emotions, a rumbling sound like the tide in his ears: "Calm down. Your emotions are affecting me."

"Haha... I'm sorry, I'm very sorry... I didn't mean to, Your Majesty."

Heavenly King...

grown ups?

Zuo Chang looked down at the tips of his shoes: "You're still not calm enough."

"How can you expect me to stay calm! Do you know what this information we're seeing means? War, a massive war! A great chaos that affects everyone, the weak and the strong alike, and will be drawn into it!"

"The Mysterious Dungeon! The Promised Day!"

"The disintegration of the gods!"

Omg.

What did the demons of war see?

Its breathing was disordered, and it said again, "Your Majesty, from this moment on, I will serve you wholeheartedly! You are incredible. By following you, I will witness the greatest calamity and participate in it throughout!"

Compared to the agitation of the war demons, Zuo Chang's reaction was relatively calm.

It's not that he doesn't understand the chaos that might follow—

The Ascended World is a world that surrounds the gods.

If the "gods were to disintegrate," the consequences would likely be far worse than humanity can imagine.

Zuo Chang was calm because it felt unreal.

How did he end up being dragged into such a huge vortex? What can he do? What should he do?

Zuo Chang shook his head and said, "War demon, let me be clear from the start, I will definitely try to stop the chaos. I am not like you, I do not enjoy war."

"Ha ha……"

The devil's laughter carried a hint of mockery.

It spoke, “Whatever choice you make, I will follow. I enjoy war, but that doesn’t mean I’m evil. I have helped weaker nations and countries resist the invaders many times as a righteous force. But... there are always things that covet the glory of the gods. They are not as reasonable as I am and will do anything for it! Your Majesty, the challenges we face may be particularly arduous.”

Zuo Chang remained silent upon hearing this.

If the legend is true, and the authority of the gods is scattered on the earth on the day of the promise, then the ascended world will inevitably descend into chaos.

Without a doubt, countless ambitious individuals will rise up and charge for that seat that is even more prestigious than "Community No. 1"!

At that time...

Zuo Chang's statement that he dislikes chaos cannot stop the chaos.

"Don't look so gloomy, Your Majesty."

The voice of the demons of war has sounded once again.

It chuckled and continued, "If you want to end the chaos, the first step must be to eliminate the Divine Sound Society and seize Heavenly King City! I suggest you take action immediately. We cannot tell from the information whether the Divine Sound Society is aware of this, but regardless of whether they are aware or not, it is absolutely necessary to eliminate them here!"

Yes.

If Zuo Chang wants to cover things up, the first step is to take control of the situation.

It is absolutely necessary to completely control the Heavenly King's Castle.

Zuo Chang asked, "War Demon, what are you thinking? If you crave war, you should be serving the Divine Sound Society now."

"Your Majesty, you don't understand me yet."

The demons of war crave war and revel in it.

But it doesn't actually enjoy killing that much.

The demon spoke with a flippant tone: "War is a collection of extreme emotions. The grief of parents whose only son has died in battle is extreme; the humiliation of rulers and subjects when their homeland falls is extreme; the despair of soldiers trapped in a besieged city is extreme. To defeat the strong with the weak is the ultimate strategy; close combat is the ultimate bravery! Every person who steps onto the battlefield is both ordinary and great, and every frame of the battlefield is a magnificent sight rarely seen in ordinary times, truly awe-inspiring!"

"It's the same now."

"Your Majesty, if you successfully prevent the 'Promised Day' from arriving, I will share in your ecstatic joy. It is a rare and precious moment."

"If you try your best but still can't turn the tide... hehe, I'll enjoy your despair, that's sweet too."

The war demon concluded, "This is why I love war. I love the myriad aspects of life under extreme conditions, and war is the most extreme state."

As Zuo Chang listened, he came to his senses.

He said, "I understand. You don't like war, you like having fun."

"Hahaha! You could say that, but you still have to call me 'War Demon,' 'Fun Demon,' or something like that, it doesn't sound imposing enough."

"Your Majesty, you can rest assured. The demon keeps his word and will provide you with assistance. I hope to be deeply involved in this event, because only in this way... can I better enjoy my 'life'."

Ugh.

The demon of war sighed softly, a sense of inexplicable melancholy washing over him.
