Genshin Impact, all those behind-the-scenes big shots are me

“But Your Majesty, our enemies are not only Shurima, but also the Fupanbali…” the priest tried to remind the Red King.

"That's just a tiny race inhabiting a small corner of the world, not worth mentioning." The Red King didn't care about the power of the Floating Bhadra. What he cared about was the Flower Goddess. It was said that she was once a messenger from the sky. As an ancient celestial being, the Flower Goddess's beauty spread throughout this desert. Any living being who saw her would be captivated by her gentleness and beauty.

He had originally intended to befriend the other party, but now they have become enemies.

While she might not be jealous of the Desert Emperor, the Flower Goddess's choice was, in a way, a way of showing the world that the Desert Emperor was more powerful than her.

The priest sighed softly. No one could change the king's decision; he could only hope that everything would go as planned.

...

In the twenty-second year of the Desert Calendar, a grand war began.

The iron cavalry of Shurima marched into the Red King's territory, clashing with the legions of the Crimson Sands on a desolate wasteland.

dong dong dong dong!

The Yellow Sand Iron Pagoda Legion raised their spears and struck the ground heavily, producing a neat and silent sound.

Dust rose, and a storm swept across the desolate land.

Nasus, with the head of a jackal and the body of a human, stood at the forefront, with Renekton beside him. The crocodile's eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty ferocity, and no one dared to meet his gaze.

In the distance, a legion from the land of red sands appeared. General Apocel raised his longsword high, and in an instant, the yellow sand swirled, displaying extraordinary bravery.

“Renkerton, the Red King’s general, is showing off to us,” Nasus said with a faint smile.

“Brother, you call that childish mud-playing trick a demonstration?” Renekton said in a deep voice. “My pee is more powerful than that.”

“Rekton, we despise our opponents, but we cannot let our guard down.”

"Yes, brother."

"Then," Nasus raised his scepter and proclaimed in a majestic voice, "warriors of Shurima, in accordance with the will of Emperor Azir, crush the enemy before you!"

Roar! ! !

Renekton made the first move, wielding two massive battle blades and leading the Ironclad army to charge towards the enemy.

"Kill!!!"

At the same time, Apocel loudly proclaimed the might of the Red King and led his army into battle.

Their numbers far exceed those of the Oasis Kingdom, and they are always fighting on all sides. Every warrior of the Red Sands is incredibly brave. Under such circumstances, how could they possibly lose with a score of 20:1?

Not to mention, at this moment he has been granted the power of sand by the Red King, making his strength far surpass that of mortals.

He was confident that one battle would be enough to completely crush this arrogant Shurima!

However, things soon took a completely different turn.

When the two armies clashed, the Ironclad Cavalry at the forefront of the charge shimmered with light. The Spirit Guardians released the power of Golden Rock, which transformed into the strongest shield wall to reinforce the Ironclad Cavalry. When the charge crashed through, wherever it went, the soldiers of the Crimson Sand were knocked away and crushed!

"how come..."

Apocel's pupils suddenly contracted.

He looked at the Ironclad Cavalry charging forward with overwhelming force, his expression one of disbelief.

It was as if an adult was crashing into a child; the absolute difference in strength presented an explosive aesthetic of power. Apocel, realizing what was happening, quickly swung his weapon and summoned sand to block the Ironclad Pagoda's charge.

Stop... If we can just stop these guys and trap them in the formation, we can kill them with our numerical advantage.

Before he could make any further moves, the butcher with the head of a crocodile and the body of a human swept over with a battle blade in hand.

"Little one, where are you looking?"

Compared to Renekton's massive body, Apocel was indeed a small fellow, but the contemptuous tone enraged the latter, who swung his sword forward without hesitation, only to have it easily blocked by Renekton.

"Is that all the power you have? Didn't your Red King share any of your childish tricks with you?" Renekton said contemptuously.

"Insulting the Crimson King, die!!" Apocel roared, his body radiating golden light as the power of the Crimson Sand was unleashed, granting him strength beyond that of ordinary people.

Hiss~~

The blade sliced ​​through, and Apozel's head flew off, an expression of disbelief on his face.

"Pooh!"

Renekton let out a disdainful sound, then continued his charge forward, reaching the most intense part of the battlefield.

After being granted the power of the Ascended, as Azir's power grew stronger, his and Nasus's power also steadily increased. Against ordinary superhuman beings or behemoths, Renekton could easily tear them apart.

As he tore apart more and more enemies, the intense stimulation of blood on his brain caused his strength to surge, and the crimson color swirled around Renekton, transforming into a savage, bestial power.

"Welcome to the catastrophe!"

War crushes machines!

“Renkerton, don’t let your anger consume your reason,” Nasus’s voice rang out.

"Oh, okay, brother."

The bloodlust in Renekton's eyes subsided somewhat, but he still maintained his most ferocious charging stance.

Soon, this war, which seemed to be a lopsided struggle, came to an end.

Without Apocel's leadership, the 200,000-strong army was leaderless and fell into chaos. After nearly 70,000 were slaughtered, the remaining Red Sand Army fled in defeat, dragging their broken armor.

Roar! ! !

Clayton stood atop the hill and roared, announcing victory in the war.

Nasus raised his scepter, his majestic voice ringing out: "The Emperor's most trusted warriors, brandish your spears and continue the battle!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

The outcome of this battle shocked the entire desert. The incredible feat of one man fighting against twenty opponents unfolded right before their eyes. All the demons, including the Crimson King, had to take it seriously. Even though they had never thought that tiny humans could possess much power, the performance of the Ironclad Cavalry was truly terrifying.

[Blessed by the Emperor, the land covered in yellow sand embodies his will; the mystery and power of the Spirit Suppressors are equally indispensable factors in the Ironclad Cavalry's invincible status.]

Soon, news of the defeat reached Aru. The Red King was filled with shock and anger, but he did not believe that his people were inferior to the warriors of the oasis. He attributed the outcome of the war to the spirits of the town, and before the Ironclad Cavalry could attack the next city-state, he dispatched his most prized masterpiece—the Elemental Construct.

These technological creations, born from the wisdom of the Crimson King, possess formidable combat and defensive capabilities. With their addition, the Crimson King is confident that the tide of battle will immediately turn.

Shurima, inside the royal palace.

The Flower Goddess entered the palace and said to Su Chen, who was comprehending the power of the Sun Disc, "Azir, the Ironclad Cavalry has achieved its first victory, and an overwhelming one at that. They are about to arrive at Vali City, the prosperous trading capital of the Red King's territory. This war will certainly not be easy. Moreover, I believe that the proud Red King will not allow himself to be defeated twice. I understand his civilization, and if I am not mistaken, the Red King will definitely send out his most prized mechanical legion."

Su Chen opened his eyes, and the aura emanating from his body startled the Flower Goddess. She could sense the terrifying power contained within it, a power that even a demon god would not dare to touch lightly.

Where did this great emperor's power come from?

"A mechanical legion, is it a meta-energy construct?"

"Yes, Azir, so you already knew."

"Of course, those things are indeed difficult to deal with." From his distant memories, Su Chen found information about the elemental constructs. Although these things were just targets for farming materials in the game, in reality, it would be very difficult for a human body to resist machines.

Even if the Ironclad Pagoda had the help of the Spirit Suppressor and unparalleled armor, a direct confrontation would likely result in heavy casualties, even if they won.

Moreover, there are boss-level entities like the Semi-Eternal Governing Matrix within the Elemental Construct.

But others have a large mechanical army, why doesn't he?

Years ago, Nasus had asked him about the gradually forming mechanical legion. Over the years, it had grown to a considerable size, but it had always remained underground and had never appeared in front of outsiders.

[You issue the order for the mechanical legion to attack, and then continue to comprehend the power of the solar disk.]

As Shurima grows stronger, you discover that the power of the Desert Emperor template is also increasing at an incredible rate, far exceeding the benefits of faith. The benefits of governing a kingdom are unimaginable compared to the Human Emperor and Kaldordia.

[At the same time, as your power increases, your influence on the Sun Disk also grows. That power, which grants opportunities for human ascension, is said to contain the power of a transcendent dragon king. If you can unleash it to its fullest extent, you will transcend the laws of this world.]

But the greater the power, the greater the risk, a fact you understand well, which is why you are not in a hurry.

[As Nasus and Renekton led their legions into battle, your will merged with the Sun Disc, feeling its vast and boundless power, and then gradually absorbed it, infusing it into the power of the yellow sand.]

At this moment, throughout the entire territory of Shurima, all those who held the highest reverence for the Emperor of the Desert felt a mysterious power surge forth from their bodies.

You have mastered the talent 'Glory of Shurima'.

The power of your people's bloodline has increased.

"The target of this template is Shurima," Su Chen pondered for a moment. "The power of the Sun Disk is much stronger than I expected, but drawing upon its power seems to be blocked by a mysterious force... Is it the order of nature?"

After comprehending the talent of Shurima's Glory, Su Chen was also granted even greater power. He estimated that his current strength was almost at the level of the Thunder Dragon King's complete form, and if he summoned the power of the Sun Disc to fight, his attributes would double.

The speed at which this power increases is simply terrifying.

Moreover, Shurima is currently only in Sumeru. If it could spread throughout the seven kingdoms... Hiss! Even though Su Chen has lived for two or three thousand years, his state of mind is somewhat unstable.

But it must be said that this was a huge... temptation for him.

However, the goal of conquering the seven kingdoms is too far away. The war between the demons and gods is a game set by the laws of nature, a struggle for the throne of the seven gods. If one crosses that line, the first thing one will face is not the seven gods who will eventually ascend the throne, but the laws of nature.

What level of strength is needed to defeat Tenri?

Su Chen could not estimate it.

Even in its perfect dragon form, it probably wouldn't reach the level of the four original shadows. According to Su Chen's speculation, the current maintainer of the laws of nature should be one of the four shadows, and he tends to think it is 'Void'.

Life and death are unknown, but the ruler of time is Istaru, and the manifestation of the maintainer of the natural order seems to lean more towards spatial abilities, probably the rule of space.

If the power of the four shadows is so terrifying, then what level of power does the Heavenly Principle itself, which is the original being Faness, possess?

Without the ability, overstepping one's bounds will lead to destruction.

You know the consequences of breaking taboos, and from the perspective of natural law, the power of the solar disk is a taboo.

"Let me focus on developing properly first," you think to yourself.

Because it was a simulation, Su Chen had enough room to maneuver, so it didn't matter if he actually failed.

Just as you were silently comprehending this power, news of another victory arrived from the front lines. With the mechanical army joining the battle, combined with the invincible strength of the Ironclad Cavalry, the Crimson King's proud legion was utterly shattered.

When the iron cavalry marched into Vali, the surviving soldiers fled the city, and the remaining civilians, unable to escape, trembled in fear before the ruthless and ferocious Ironclad Cavalry. If it had been Renekton, perhaps these humans would have faced a massacre, but the legion was led by Nasus, a priest who knew that senseless slaughter would bring no benefit.

"The emperor's authority cannot rely solely on bloodshed; it also requires mercy," Nasus once told Azir.

[Shurima's army quickly took control of Vali, and then marched outwards, conquering all the surrounding tribal villages and towns, bringing them under Shurima's rule.]

During this time, Aru remained unusually silent on his throne.

In the twenty-fifth year of the Desert Calendar, the territory of the Oasis Kingdom surpassed that of the Aru, becoming the largest power in the desert.
