Origin Paradise!

The Grand Tutor of the Great Zhou looked on with pity. He had already received news that Ji You was planning to reignite the beacon fires for the second time and order the retired old rulers to step forward and speed up the search efforts from all sides.

Perhaps it was to eliminate dissidents and consolidate power, or perhaps it was because he was truly stubborn and unrepentant. In any case, the Grand Tutor of the Great Zhou believed that things should not continue any longer, as he seemed to see a tragic future ahead.

"Heaven-Sealing and Earth-Searching Formation, activate!"

Upon receiving the order, the six ministers unleashed a surge of pure golden energy, with beams of light converging towards the center, and under the Grand Tutor's coordination, they ascended back into the sky.

In Zhou culture, the concept of world consciousness is also known as the Way of Heaven. The Way of Heaven is constant and does not exist for Yao or perish for Jie. By understanding its operating rules and summarizing experience for practical application, the Great Zhou gave birth to a transcendent path called the Diviner.

"May Heaven bless you; good fortune and no misfortune await you!"

In the Grand Tutor's hand, the strange bronze disc spun rapidly, and a drop of blood fell, reflecting the scenes of various parts of the Great Wilderness. The most important basis for divination is cause and effect. The target had once taken away the offspring of the King of Calamity, and now that the King of Calamity's heart blood had fallen, the possibility of finding the other party had greatly increased.

shhhhhh!

Strands of light rose into the air and surged outwards. The Grand Tutor's silver hair fell out strand by strand, making his already weathered face appear even more withered. But the divination did not respond for a long time.

The target is not in the wilderness.

This conclusion left the Grand Tutor bewildered. After a moment's thought, he revealed a resolute expression, his eyes becoming empty and clouded.

Click!

Suddenly, the bronze plate shattered.

A strange, crimson blood moon rose from the Observatory, its surface seemingly concealing cold, icy eyes.

The Grand Tutor's body suddenly exploded, his soul and spirit annihilated, and a thunderous roar faintly echoed all around.

"what happened!"

"Something terrible has happened! Inform His Majesty!"

"This is utterly baffling! The Sky Watch Platform has been sealed off!"

The unexpected death of one of the Three Dukes was a devastating blow. Most importantly, the Six Ministers were right beside him, yet they were completely oblivious to the situation.

The Winter Official Sikong was at a loss. The king's power came from the territory, from his people, and from the extraordinary beings of the Great Zhou. He shouldered everything with absolute self-confidence, which is one of the symbols of a human king and arrogance. At this moment, the death of the Grand Tutor was also a real blow to Ji You.

"The aroma of human habitation is strong; the Great Zhou needs more of that aroma."

……

Meanwhile, the Anping Villa in the present-day area.

Zhuang Ya devoured all the golden snake bodies. The abundant nutrition from the blood hunt pushed her to the limit of the Silver Peak level. She lay on her side on the floor, staring blankly at the wall, her little belly bulging.

"Aya, say something!"

"Aya, don't scare me."

Old Hei and Wuhe were extremely anxious, and the living room was in complete chaos.

Jiang He rushed over immediately upon receiving the news. He went over to check on the situation. Alchemy masters are not doctors, but in some ways, they are more proficient in the physical body and soul.

After a while, the inspection ended.

Jiang He called out to Lao Hei and Wu He, explaining, "It's not a big problem, the little guy is just stuffed."

When people are overeating, most people usually try to relieve the discomfort by lying on their side. Zhuang Ya's situation was particularly severe; she was mentally normal, but her body was completely immobile.

"Being able to eat is a blessing." Old Hei was relieved and gave him a compliment.

"You scared me," Wuhe muttered under his breath.

Jiang He sat cross-legged on the floor and continued to practice the Solar Breathing Technique. His spirit had increased by three points after returning, which slightly extended his cultivation time.

Fifteen days have passed in the blink of an eye.

The fifth gas vortex successfully liquefied.

[Hint: Recruitment mission is about to begin]

Jiang He reached out to shake Zhuang Ya awake, but the other woman was as still as a dead snake. Her stomach had already flattened back to normal, but after eating, she naturally went to sleep.

"Aya, let's find another place to sleep."

It's sizzling!

Thunder flashes.

Zhuang Ya woke up groggily and instinctively obeyed someone's command. She transformed into a small white snake, crawled up her neck, tilted her head, and fell into hibernation again.

Jiang He knew that the other party was growing in size, so he didn't disturb them. After gathering Lao Hei and Wu He, he started the world recruitment mission.

Skip the cutscene.

Chapter 365 The Arrival of the Embers

January 1th, the sixth year of the Kaiyuan era.

To serve as a wake-up call for the devastating defeat in the expansion war six years ago, the Supreme Council, located in the heart of the continent, decided that the entire alliance would adopt a new calendar, symbolizing the beginning of a new era.

However, the Ninth Fortress in the northeast of the Alliance turned a deaf ear to the "general amnesty" that resulted from this.

Since Fortnite ended, this area has become a military and political district, with three legions, totaling 600,000 troops, stationed inside, along with two fortified passes.

Due to an order from the highest-ranking officer of the administrative district six years ago, the Third Legion has been stationed outside the Great Wall for many years, plundering a large number of people and industrial facilities, causing the population of the Ninth Fortress to soar to 20 million and establishing four giant subordinate cities in the east, west, south and north.

The overall situation of the Ninth Fortress is thriving; the only problem is the Black Prison that refuses to pardon any prisoners.

All citizens of the Ninth Fortress with identification who have been away from their posts for more than six months for any reason must go to the Black Prison for unified training.

The Black Prison is buried beneath powerful explosives capable of blowing up the entire prison, and is surrounded by ten full divisions of the First Legion, making it a veritable inescapable net.

The warden's office is on the top floor of the administration building.

When Jiang He came to his senses, he was already sitting behind his desk. Back when he first teleported from Origin, the process was quite rough. Later, when he became a privileged player, the teleportation became much gentler and silent.

The three members of the animal team also took their seats.

[Hint: Current world swarm: 100,000 Fiend Soldiers / 5,000 Dawn Humans / 4 Silver Dao Soldiers]

[Hint: Free teleportation group - 240,000 Fiend Soldiers / 3,000 Fiend Knights / 3 Silver Golem Soldiers]

The origin cue sounded in my ear.

However, Jiang He had no time to worry about that; her immediate priority was to save time.

The players participating in this battle for the embers usually have different mission cycles, but considering the fairness of the battle, there is a high probability that they will land at the same time.

"Dawn issues its highest order to all Dawn personnel remaining in the area: General preparations for war begin."

"The Saint Lilith will take off immediately to seize air superiority."

"Ah Da, Ah Er, Ah San, Lao Hei, and Zhuang Ya boarded the fleet together, accompanied by three thousand fierce knights."

"The Black Prison is to be sealed off immediately, and all entry and exit are prohibited."

Orders were issued swiftly.

At the initial point of arrival in the world, most players have a habitual passive mentality towards the environment; in other words, they have to wait for things to develop and for quests to unfold.

A total of four thousand players have arrived. After being assigned to individual fortresses, the average number of players will be over four hundred. Considering the importance of the battle, it is entirely possible that all players will be Silver-ranked.

Faced with the ensuing chaos, Jiang He's first priority is to quell the rebellion and regain absolute control over the Ninth Fortress.

……

The bottom of the Black Prison.

All serious offenders here are kept in solitary confinement.

Inside the dimly lit and gloomy prison, the damp air was filled with the smell of mildew. Behind the iron bars, the sound of thumping came from a special torture device that looked like armor, breaking the surrounding silence.

Separated by a wall, Warden Tong Fei frowned. As a high-ranking superhuman, he felt an instinctive sense of crisis.

"Number 120, former leader of a G4-level large settlement, you are now being targeted by four heavy machine guns. I do not want to see any accidental casualties. Stop the dangerous behavior immediately."

"Hey hey hey!"

boom!

The armor and torture instruments shattered.

A burly man with muscles that gleamed like steel broke free from his restraints, his smile particularly ruthless. He crashed straight into the iron fence, and fragments of his armor shot through the air, denting the surrounding walls.

"Since when even a peak Bronze level expert can boss me around? What a joke."

The sheer power of the ordinary beings from the Silver Age sent chills down everyone's spines. The fact that a dominant-level superhuman was imprisoned in the Black Prison was something Tong Fei had never expected.

"shot!"

Da da da!

Four military heavy machine guns embedded in the wall opened fire simultaneously, the bursts of bullets forming a bright orange line that completely enveloped the serious criminals attempting to escape.

Just as the jailers were relaxing.

Dangdang Dangdang!

The bullet struck the burly man's chest, bursting into countless dazzling sparks, yet he remained completely unharmed. The superior skill—the combination of steel skin, a robust body, and a tiger-boned, wolf-like waist—constructed the formidable physique of this silver warrior.

"Insubordination is utterly outrageous!"

The strong man charged forward with all his might, and the gun-wielding prison guards exploded one by one. The crowd fled like madmen.
