Offer blocks to the end times

“Hmm,” Shubi agreed and started talking. After a while, Rick nodded, “I think I understand. Now let’s do something!”

After leaving the house, Rick gathered the Holy Sword Squad and the Undead Squad, explaining the current emergency. Those around him were somewhat dejected. "What do we do? Humanity finally received divine favor, and now..."

"What are you all so discouraged about! We survived even when we were powerless, didn't we?" Rick encouraged everyone. "Besides, the Senju also said that we humans are the strongest, didn't they?"

"Phew, you're right, we humans have always been the strongest!" The people around him weren't so fragile either, and they quickly accepted this reality. Things were much better now than in the past.

"Most importantly, I've obtained the method to end this great war!" Rick said mysteriously. The people around him were stunned for a moment, then became excited. "Really? How exactly do you end this battle?!"

Then Rick started talking about the Star Grail, "This war is just a game for the gods to fight for the Star Grail, not..."

Now that we've joined, the rules of the game have to change!

"For the sake of legacy!" shouted those around him. Rick waved his hand. "It should be said, for the sake of our shared will!"

“Then, the game begins. Are you ready, God of Games?” Rick’s eyes seemed to blaze with fire.

Subsequently, under Rick's command, everyone began to gather intelligence everywhere. As the intelligence was obtained, Rick's plan gradually became complete.

Using the advantage of the Dead Squad, covered in black and gray, he sent messages to various races, warning them to be wary of each other and thus leave the human-dominated continent of Lucia.

Of course, during this process, some races had doubts about the identities of these people, but these were all covered up by the Black and Gray forces. They also created a fictional race, the 'Undead Race', which possessed weapons of the same level as those capable of destroying the continent.

Spreading rumors everywhere that the undead race was about to unleash a black and gray storm that would sweep across the continent and wipe the world clean, the undead squads appeared everywhere along with the news.

Rick also used the cover of black and gray to persuade the forest elves, who possessed powerful weapons, to leave. He even paid the price of losing an eye for this, since no one else could deal with the extremely cunning forest elves.

As the races that threatened humanity's survival left the continent of Lucia, Rick and his companions followed suit, leaving the village in the care of Chronie. Incidentally, during this time, Rick and Shubi got married.

Then Rick had the Dead Squad draw attention everywhere, while he, Hugh, and the Holy Sword Squad installed equipment everywhere for the final blow.

The activity of the Undead Squad aroused the fear of the surrounding races. After several encirclements and attacks, they found a way to deal with them. With their relentless attacks, the 'Undead Race' that could threaten the entire world was finally wiped out, and they breathed a sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, Rick and his team had completed 80% of the equipment installation, but their activities were discovered by the bored Skywing, Jibril.

So Jibril began hunting down these strange 'people'. The Holy Sword Squad fought back and tried to escape, but they couldn't escape Jibril's clutches. In the end, they had no choice but to fight, but they were no match for Jibril and were tracked down and eliminated one by one.

When Riku discovered this information, Jibril had already come knocking on his door, and the two sides engaged in a great battle. However, even the two of them combined were no match for Jibril. In the end, Shubi had no choice but to seek help from the leader of the Machine Gundams, the 'Full Link Commander,' who uploaded his 'heart' to all the Machine Gundams, thus developing the 'Unknown Combat Calculation System.'

However, while Riku was buying her time, Jibril severed his arm. Enraged, Shubi teleported Riku away and then engaged in a fierce battle with Jibril. In the end, the two perished together. However, Shubi was sent to Hashirama's side through some unseen connection, while Jibril lost most of her power and regressed into a juvenile form.

When Rick returned to the battlefield, the two were gone. Instead, there were Shiro's fellow Kai race members, who respected Rick greatly and were willing to hand over command of their race to him.

Rick, who was initially heartbroken, cheered up after hearing Shubi's message, because he remembered what Thousand Hands and Tet had said: "Becoming the One God will give you a chance to be resurrected." "I will give you a chance to be reborn."

To achieve this goal, Riku continued his efforts and, with the help of the Machine Race, completed the setup of all the equipment. The Machine Race also entrusted him with all their hopes, 'True Scripture Killer Star'.

With a small trigger, the races possessing devastating weapons immediately went all out. The battle between the various races even attracted the gods. The power of all the weapons formed a huge sphere, which was then deflected, absorbed, and transferred to Riku by the Machine Races. However, the Machine Races there were almost completely wiped out.

Rick also used this power to pierce through the planet, revealing the Elf Corridor. The Star Cup descended as he had planned, but when Rick touched the Star Cup, he found himself rejected by it because of the otherworldly power he carried.

With the forced contact, the Star Grail gradually eroded Riku's arm. However, Riku still gained a lot from this contact. He learned the whereabouts of Shubi and Senju, and that he could also teleport there. But the Star Grail would escape, and the war would continue.

In despair, Riku attempted to summon the Thousand Hands, but failed. Finally, he remembered Tet and used the Star Grail to create Tet, entrusting everything to him and asking him to end this long and arduous war.

Tet agreed and made a promise with him to play another game in the future. Then, the two of them worked together to send Rick to Hashirama's side through the connection of the Star Grail.

Chapter 622 New Changes in Axel

Feeling his restored arm and eyes, Rick bowed to Senju, "Thank you, God. I feel like I've been resurrected."

"Alright, just call me Senju," Senju said, waving her hand dismissively. "Go see Shubi, and then you're free to do as you please."

“Thousand Hands, huh?” Rick chuckled softly, then a blueprint gradually materialized in his hand. “Thank you. This blueprint is a gift for you.”

"What is this?" Senju looked at it in confusion, and then the drawing immediately transformed into a stream of information that rushed towards Senju before being swallowed up by the system.

“That’s the design blueprint for the Star Cup,” Rick said.

I explained it there, but Senju already understood most of it.

The so-called 'Star Cup' is a conceptual device that allows the recipient to become the 'One God'.

However, Thousand Hands obtained both the complete version and the reduced version. Although the reduced version was easier to build, the result was that the recipient would become a planetary god.

Moreover, the most troublesome thing about this thing is that the level of laws it can manipulate is related to the level of the planet.

The gods of the Super Magic Planet are said to be incredibly powerful, capable of destroying the world and traversing time and space.

The gods of scientific planets are far less powerful; they can only show off their power in places like the spirit world. However, at least they can establish sects, gather followers, and occasionally manifest their power.

The gods of the Death Star are the easiest to succeed, but once they succeed, they can only sleep.

If it were a god from an asteroid, that would be laughable; a few meteorites colliding would cause a 'god' to fall.

As for the complete version, which can interfere with an entire universe, it's not something that the Thousand Hands can create on their own right now; it requires collecting a lot of concepts.

Thousand Hands felt it was useless, but Number Six reminded Thousand Hands that he could load the Star Grail System on the starship. It would give Thousand Hands certain 'simulation permissions' when he arrived in the new world, preventing him from being discovered by some terrifying figures.

After a moment of silence, Senju had the robot take Riku to find Shubi, while Senju began studying the Star Grail system.

This is specifically designed to deal with worlds where gods and demons roam freely, preventing people from discovering the origins of the Thousand Hands through prophecy, calculation, and other means, thus giving him a plausible facade.

Senju then realized how lucky he was to have survived until now. In the first world, there were no gods, demons, or superpowers; in the second, the gods were mostly asleep or crippled; in the third, the gods had their powers sealed and were just playing games; as for this one, Senju felt that the gods seemed incredibly weak and had some intellectual problems.

And then there's Tetsu's world. He doesn't seem to have any ill intentions towards Senju, otherwise, Senju would have touched his neck involuntarily.

However, things over there are over now, and it will take another year to reconnect. I don't plan to go there yet, which means everything is fine now. Senju finally breathed a sigh of relief. Tomorrow I'll go to the guild and kill some monsters to relieve my boredom.

When Senju woke up in the morning, he found Riku and Shubi hugging each other outside watching the sun. Senju wondered if he was seeing things, but the two seemed to have changed their style, from being ruthless and decisive to being cute and adorable.

"This is the sun. It's so warm."

"Yes, the flowers here are really beautiful."

"Shubi is beautiful too."

"Rick is just as handsome, he's really captivating."

"Hahaha..."

Hearing the two's cheesy conversation, Senju got goosebumps all over. After instructing the maids and guards to entertain them, Senju instantly teleported to Axel.

However, Axel looked quite desolate. A cold wind on the ground swirled up a pile of papers and blew them in front of Senju. He picked them up and realized that they were actually membership application forms for the Axis Cult. Looking at the papers fluttering around him, Senju wondered how many leaflets the Axis Cult had distributed.

"What's going on?" Senju asked, puzzled. She walked along the street into the Adventurers' Guild and finally encountered some real people. Several adventurers, their bodies stuffed with leaflets, were trembling there. A nun in a habit was loudly praising Aqua's greatness. Luna and the others were hiding behind the counter, too afraid to come out.

"You're here to join the Axis Cult too, aren't you!" A woman darted out from behind the door. Senju recognized her immediately—it was the woman who had thrown apples to elicit sympathy. He remembered her name, but he had long forgotten it.

“So you’re a fellow traveler,” the woman said, shaking Senju’s hand vigorously. “Thank you for your guidance. We learned about this great holy land and have gathered many companions here. Everything is so wonderful, all thanks to your guidance.”

"..." Although not entirely sure, Senju sensed angry gazes coming from all around. So, you're the culprit!

"By the way, have you seen Aqua?" Senju quickly interrupted. The woman shook her head. "We haven't seen Lady Aqua, but we found a witch impersonating her. Damn it, that girl dares to have light blue hair and dress so much like Lady Aqua!"

"..." Fanatics are terrifying; they don't even recognize their own god! Senju coughed lightly. "By the way, how many of you came this time?"

“There are ten people in total. Two are on duty in the cathedral, and the rest are preaching in the city. We are baptizing these adventurers right now. Why don’t you come and help?” the woman called out happily, handing a stack of membership applications to Thousand Hands. “Our vacation is almost over, so we’ll leave this work to you. Let more people know the fame of the Axis Church. I’ll let you in on a secret: you can get 10,000 Eris for each new follower you recruit. If you capture that witch, you can become an Axis follower immediately.”

"That's probably why Aqua wasn't caught," Senju thought to himself, but then he glanced at the stares of those around him and realized he was in trouble. What if everyone knew he was the one who caused this? Hmm?! It doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with it! He came here today to cause trouble!

Thousand Hands carried a stack of application forms out the door, intending to watch the show and distribute them to passersby as he pleased.

Distributing flyers helps release some of my stress.

A few people occasionally appeared along the way, and when they saw the thousand hands holding the paper, they immediately ran away. The sound of doors and windows closing could be heard from the side of the street.

Thousand Hands pretended to chase after her for a while, then arrived at Wiz's shop. When she saw Thousand Hands carrying a stack of papers, she immediately shrank behind the counter and said in a trembling voice, "Um, I'm sorry, I can't join the Axis Cult. Please find someone else."

"Wiz, what's wrong?" Senju knocked on the counter, and Wiz, who had been crouching inside with his head in his hands, finally looked up. He breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Senju. "Oh, it's Lord Senju. You startled me. By the way, these are your consignment proceeds..."

Chapter 623 Axis and Aqua

As Wiz spoke, his voice suddenly lowered, and his finger trembled as he pointed at a stack of papers that Senju had placed on the counter. "This, this is! Could it be that Lord Senju has also joined the Axis Cult?!"

“No way,” Senju retorted, then came up with an excuse, “By the way, I was away for a while, how did Axel end up like this?”

“That scared me to death,” Wiz patted his chest to calm down, and then began to talk about the changes in Axel these days, all of which started with the ten Axis cultists who suddenly arrived six days ago.

"After they arrived here, they started preaching everywhere, which frightened everyone. Then they occupied the temple built by Lady Aqua and said that Lady Aqua was a witch. People who came here to accept missions were scared away," Wiz said, then shook his head in confusion. "Fortunately, quite a few male adventurers volunteered to entangle those preaching Axis cultists, so I was not discovered."

"I see," Senju nodded speechlessly, surprised by the bravery of the adventurers here. "By the way, where is Aqua?"

“Lady Aqua is currently in a large mansion near the public cemetery,” Wiz said, drawing a map for Senju before bowing to him. “Lady Senju, please, let Axel return to normal. I’m starting to feel a bit dangerous as things continue like this! I don’t want to leave my little shop.”

“Hmm,” Senju nodded, took the map and walked away. To be honest, he didn’t know how to deal with these Axis cultists. If he was too violent, Aqua would definitely make a fuss.

However, on the way, Senju encountered Darkness and Kazuma Sato. One was looking around excitedly, as if searching for something, while the other looked completely exhausted. "Hey, Darkness, don't look around. There are no Axis cultists around here."

“What a pity,” Darkness said, panting. “I was planning to go to Aqua’s church today.”

"Stop it now! Aqua has already given the church and road to the Axis Church. Although thanks to them, the debt has been paid off, we are still short of money for the winter. We need to do more missions now!" Kazuma Sato shouted from the side. It seems that Aqua's debt has been settled.

“That’s true, but in the cold winter, starving is a kind of fun,” Darkness seemed to be indulging in a fantasy. “Then Kazuma would say in that useless tone, ‘Darkness, use your filthy body to exchange for some money!’ Just thinking about it makes me excited!”

"I wouldn't say that! Let's hurry up and meet up with Aqua and the others," Kazuma Sato roared, then saw Senju standing to the side. "Ah, Senju, it's been a long time."

"Yes, I was away for a while, went to a hot spring in another city," Senju said, and then saw Sato Kazuma's eyes light up. "You mean a hot spring?"

“Yes, I went to the hot spring city of Alcanretia. The hot springs there are quite nice,” Senju nodded, and Darkness’s eyes lit up as well. “Alcanretia is really nice.”

“Excellent,” Kazuma Sato clapped his hands. “After we finish this mission, we’ll go there to recuperate for a while, which will be a good way to get away from these annoying Axis cultists.”

"Haha, they're very hospitable over there. I can sponsor your travel expenses," Senju chuckled for a moment, then looked at the puzzled Sato Kazuma, "By the way, what kind of mission did you take on?"

“Helping farmers harvest scallions has a very high reward,” Kazuma Sato said excitedly, while Darkness beside him blushed. “That’s right, the reward for this task is extremely high.”

"Hmm? I feel like what you're saying is different. I've got nothing else to do, so I'll go take a look too." Senju followed the two to the outskirts of the city and met Aqua and Megumin in a grove of trees.

"Our mission is to harvest green onions. After we're done, we can go to Alcanredia to soak in the hot springs," Kazuma Sato announced. Aqua's face lit up. "You mean Alcanredia? I want to go too!"

"Alcanredia? It's been so long since I've been there. I wonder how everyone is doing," Megumin said nostalgically. Then, as if she remembered something, she added, "Oh, right, Kazuma, you mentioned green onions earlier. Shall we go catch some green onion ducks? And where will we get the money for the trip?"

“The travel expenses were sponsored by Lord Senju,” Kazuma Sato said, pointing to Senju on the side. Senju nodded. “I went there to soak in the hot springs and it felt great. I’d like to recommend it to everyone.”

"I see," Huihui nodded, and then the group arrived at a farm.

After meeting the owner, he led the five people to the field, which was a lush expanse of green onions. "This is your task. Just harvest these."

After saying that, the farmer ran away. Megumin and Aqua stared tremblingly at the onion field, then rushed towards Kazuma Sato, "What kind of mission did you take?! You actually took a mission like that!"

"What's wrong? It's just harvesting green onions. This task has a reward of 600,000 Eris. I finally got it after a lot of trouble," Kazuma Sato said indignantly.

Aqua patted him on the shoulder and said, "Kazuma, I knew you lacked common sense, but I didn't expect you to be this lacking. Go and pluck one and you'll see."

"What? It's just a scallion?" Sato Kazuma said, but he began to be on guard. He poked the scallion with his short sword, but it didn't react. Of course, it was just a plant after all.

After testing the waters for a while, Sato Kazuma heard his teammates laughing at him from behind. He gritted his teeth and struck hard. After all, it was just a cabbage, something that could move. He could just cut it in half with one sword.
