The portable grandfathers that appear are all problematic.

"Your Excellency... no, I have no way to repay your kindness, I can only serve you like a slave and repay you forever." The half-dragon queen with a lizard head bowed slightly. "My lord, as a way of repaying you, I am willing to offer you my most precious possession."

She opened a barrier deep within the cave and said, "Young master, inside are the most beautiful and wonderful things in the world."

"Hmm? What's so interesting?" the young man asked curiously as he leaned forward. "Let me see."

"You can see it." The half-dragon lizard queen silently sealed the cave entrance.

Then they led the young general into the deepest part of the cave, a place where no one could find them—that was their location.

……

Xue Lude walked silently through the campus, observing the lives of everyone there.

Meanwhile, Lan Lin'er chattered incessantly beside Xue Dinglu like a little follower. She no longer bothered to hide her voice, which sounded like a clear lark.

If people used to think of her as just a young girl from Nanliang, now even strangers know she's a tomboy dressed like a boy.

That shy and charming demeanor was something Xiao Nanliang could hardly imitate.

But Xue was only superficially giving her the runaround, occasionally asking about what was happening at the school. In reality, he was discussing the information he had just extracted with the angel inside him.

The Mind Flayer doesn't even know his true identity yet; he only thinks he's a "transmigrator" who came to this world to cultivate the World Tree.

As for why he was relentlessly cultivating the World Tree, also known as the Divine Tree, he didn't even know; it was just that the underlying code was telling him to cultivate the Divine Tree.

He married a local indigenous girl and had a daughter, living a carefree life in the divine realm with his family.

This is what makes Mind Flayers so terrifying. They act entirely according to their predetermined plans, without even knowing the process. They themselves are unaware that they are invaders of the world. Therefore, before they use the power of the Divine Tree, neither the world's consciousness nor the angels know that they are invaders.

By the time they found out, it was too late.

The descendants of his brothers and friends who once helped him overthrow the rule of angels have become the current divine family. They have created a birth-based system by monopolizing all the world's resources and forcing ordinary people to have children in order to support themselves.

If air and water weren't so difficult to monopolize, Xue's Law believes that these extraordinary families would have monopolized both air and water completely.

Xue's law knows how they survived as a race, which is why he feels the tragedy of this civilization.

Civilization? They have lost their civilization.

Without history, without culture, without their unique music and customs, without any sense of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, trustworthiness, or morality, the people of the current church are only obsessed with having children and receiving subsidies, and with the idea of ​​doing everything they can to have a magician child.

Their civilization has been dissolved to the point that they have gradually degenerated into the appearance of half-orcs.

"I'll leave school tomorrow to see the whole capital city," Xue Dinglu said, ignoring the pregnant girls who were everywhere on campus.

He silently opened the book and wrote this.

Innovation Era: Day Two, Heavenly Fire

Chapter 270 No Money, What Kind of Magic Are You Learning? (Bonus 6K Chapter Combining Two Chapters)

This is already the most prosperous capital city in the entire world, and within it are the true noble districts and magic academies.

What he saw was still a large number of pregnant girls, and some of them even looked smaller than Fafnir when they had their bellies sticking out.

Such children have a deformed, large belly and a chest that is developing rapidly due to hormones on one side, and a short, thin figure and a childish face on the other.

Xue Dinglu was speechless because he was mentally prepared that this was already the richest and most beautiful place in the world, and he would be mentally prepared for the rest of the place.

……

"Are you leaving?" Lan Lin'er seemed about to cry. She stared at Xue Dinglu as if she were an abandoned fawn.

“I have a dream,” Xue Dinglu’s calm voice came, “I want to travel to every corner of the Holy Kingdom and see the world with my own eyes.”

Lan Lin'er was stunned. It was the first time she had ever heard of a dream from someone else, and even the first time she had ever heard of such a bizarre dream.

"Why? What benefits would it bring to see other parts of the Holy Kingdom?" she blurted out instinctively.

However, Xue's law did not answer this time; that was enough, and there was no need to continue.

He shouldered his bag and left the academy without any reluctance; the entire desolate capital city seemed to be beneath his feet.

Lan Lin'er looked at her "roommate" whom she had only known for a day, but for some reason, she felt uncomfortable all over. Seeing that departing figure, it seemed as if this was the last time they would meet.

The next time old friends meet, they will be facing each other with swords drawn.

Meanwhile, Xue Lude, carrying his backpack, continued chatting with the angel. This somewhat eccentric guy gradually became a little more normal through constant communication and questioning with Xue Lude.

She no longer looks like a crazy old woman.

“Lord, didn’t you intend to use her? Why are you letting her go now? Or is it that you can’t bring yourself to do it?” the angel asked.

What she really meant was that if Xue's Law couldn't bring himself to do it, she could help Xue's Law solve the problem by torturing the enemy's daughter in the most terrifying way.

“No, I’ve done enough. Just watch and let the dust settle,” Xue Dinglu said.

Since the angel had brought up this point, Xue Dinglu said, "Rachel, let me ask you this: if I were to refine you into a weapon, and only this weapon, which you have transformed into, could severely injure the Mind Flayer, would you be willing?"

The angel was stunned for a moment; she didn't know why Xue's Law would make such an assumption.

But soon, the angel gave its response: "I do!"

"Let alone becoming a weapon, even if I become the ugliest, the filthiest, the most lowly, as long as it can kill me, I would be absolutely willing, very willing!"

"Then what if I forge you into a halberd and give it to Lan Lin'er to use, and you are of one mind with her?" Xue Dinglu continued to ask.

But this time, the angel was instantly speechless, and even through the bone armor, one could see the expression on her face that looked like she had eaten a shit.

“No, Lord, I don’t understand,” she countered.

"How do you think about how to launch the most lethal sneak attack without the Mind Flayer's knowledge? How can you inflict the heaviest damage on him?" Xue Dinglu asked.

The angel instantly understood why Xue Law asked her if she was willing to be forged into a weapon.

The method of the sneak attack was to use himself, who was also a person of world power.

However, under normal circumstances, she would never be able to get close to the other party. Just like in that battle of gods, she lost to the Divine Tree rather than the Mind Flayer!

Caught off guard by the divine tree's sudden control, he also did not expect the divine tree to have such strong resilience and terrifying life-absorbing ability, easily breaking through his defenses and piercing through his internal organs.

In other words, she originally thought she was fighting in a ring against a junior from the same world, so she was initially fighting with the intention of teaching him a lesson. However, she realized something was wrong after Shenmu appeared. But by then, Shenmu had already ambushed her, piercing her heart and spreading the parasitic spores into her body.

In an instant, defeat was inevitable.

So this time, the tables have turned, and it's now my turn to be in the shadows while the enemy is in the open. Will I be able to launch a sneak attack on them?

At this moment, just as at that moment.

For a moment, the angel felt a strange mix of excitement and a sense of transgression. She had once been a conservative person, but she had changed and was no longer the person she used to be.

She can be as patient as a viper and as cunning as a hyena.

"Lord, do you mean that I should get close to the Mind Flayer through his only daughter, and then that will be the time for me to betray him!"

"Hmm." Xue Dinglu nodded. "A magnificent betrayal of the King—are you willing to carry out this plan?"

"I'm willing! Even if I'm held by those filthy hands and used by those filthy bloodlines, I'm excited enough to raise the flag! What does it matter if I become a weapon for eternity?"

“It won’t last forever. After this is all over, I will give you a new life,” Xue Dinglu made his promise.

"Then please use me as you see fit, Lord!"

Without hesitation, Xue Dinglu grabbed the angel's skeleton and instantly refined it.

He intends to use the modifier to create a Noble Phantasm once again, and this time the Noble Phantasm will be entirely based on the body of an angel, the most evil human transmutation method.

Bone for steel, blood for glass—the bone armor on that angel, born of vengeance, became the best material.

The cursed blood transformed into the most precise scalpel and forging hammer, beginning to forge and reshape everything. Xue's Law understood this pain, but the angel remained silent.

Perhaps the pain we feel now is less than one ten-thousandth of the suffering of slowly rotting on the sacred tree.

“If things go smoothly, I’ll have a friend come over and teach you how to be a leader,” Xue said.

The angel didn't continue speaking, but Xue Dinglu continued talking to ease the pressure in her heart.

"He was a magical emperor from another world, but his empire collapsed after only a little over a decade. He never understood why it collapsed and searched everywhere for the answer to peace. So, in another world, he temporarily found a way to achieve peace." Xue Dinglu's lips twitched as he thought of that abstract world.

"That means maximizing productivity and holding the martial arts tournament in parallel." Xue Dinglu almost fainted from anger again when he thought of the old Demon Emperor's policy.

"He spared no effort to develop productivity, distributed all knowledge and magic to everyone for free, and cured everyone's diseases for free. However, with excess productivity, various conflicts would inevitably arise, and his chosen way to resolve these conflicts was through the Martial Arts Tournament!"

“Beat, if you’re not satisfied, come and beat, beat the pain, beat the suffering, beat everything that is dissatisfied. If you want to change something, come and beat the whole world. Come here and show the effort and purity you put into changing what you are dissatisfied with… This is his system…”

Xue's Law has finished telling the story of another king.

Although the old Demon Emperor's system sounds very abstract at first glance, it is to vigorously develop productivity and then solve hunger and suffering for everyone equally, but if you want me to take a second look at you.

Then come to the ring and show me your determination and purity with your fists!

If you want to change the world and change the unsatisfactory status quo, talking about it won't do any good. So use your fists and determination to convey your will to me.

This is the World's Number One Martial Arts Tournament in that world.

The top eight winners will have the opportunity to duel the old Demon Emperor in person, demonstrating their purity and will, their beliefs and determination, and conveying their plans and ideas for changing the world. These individuals are the old Demon Emperor's true future confidants.

Of course, the second path to advancement is the imperial examination, which is a cultural examination.

Historically, the old Demon Emperor did not recruit pedantic scholars, but rather talents in science and engineering; they were the executors and implementers of systems and plans.

By the way, the old Demon Emperor wanted a strategist, but a strategist is just a product that comes up with ideas to achieve goals, without any real power.

As for nobles, what kind of social trash are they? They were thrown into the trash heap along with Ji Nu long ago. In the old Demon Emperor's eyes, there are only laborers and fighters.

This, in turn, created an unparalleled abstract system in that world.

It's like a bunch of incredibly abstract brutes controlling the whole world and wanting to make the world better. Anyone who tries to stop them from making the world better will get beaten up. These lunatics use their fists to convey their ideas when discussing issues.

Xue's Law doesn't yet know whether this system is good or bad, but it's better than before.

Judging from the mental state of the two beast-eared lolis, White Crow and Siam, their world has probably gone completely mad. But at least, people's lives are no longer so miserable, they have hope for the future, and they can see that things are slowly getting better.

Let's see if the old Demon Emperor can provide his true answer to peace in the future.

After Xue finished telling this story, the angel's skeleton completely transformed into a strange halberd covered in frost.

A skull was embedded in the very center of the halberd, making it look incredibly evil and ferocious.

At this moment, the skull said, "What the Lord means is that I don't need to do everything according to my own ideas, because I am just a person, or even just an ancient relic from thousands of years ago. My thoughts may already be outdated, so I need to sense the thoughts of others and put those thoughts into action..."

"But at the same time, I also need to firmly grasp the power, is that what you mean?"

The voice of an angel came.

Xue Dinglu was stunned for a moment. So this was the core of the old Demon Emperor's abstract system? Oh, I see. He understood.

Xue Dinglu nodded immediately.

The angel understood the problem, and she eventually succeeded in transforming it into this strangely shaped halberd through blessing and modification.

The original skull gradually transformed into metal decorations. Although the halberd was originally made of bone spurs, it now seemed to radiate a metallic luster, becoming sacred and full of majesty.

"But I no longer wish to be king." This time, the angel's voice came directly from within the halberd.

"I just want to kill the Mind Flayer, kill all the descendants of traitors, kill everyone who deserves to die. I don't want to think about the future, I don't want to know what I should do or what I shouldn't do. I just want to kill everything that deserves to die."

Upon hearing her words, Xue Dinglu's lips curled up slightly.

"That's enough. Let's deal with the enemy first, then we can start thinking about what to do next." Xue Dinglu waved the halberd in his hand. It was very easy for him to use it; stabbing his expensive father would be a piece of cake.

Who can say for sure what the future holds?

The strange halberd in his hand slowly said, "Thank you, Master."

"By the way, let's name your new form," Xue Dinglu said. "Let's call it Frost Signal Halberd! It's a name that inherits all the concepts of patricide, and it'll definitely give the Mind Flayer a big surprise."

……

Xue Dinglu left the school and set foot in the capital city.

The streets of the entire capital were nearly deserted, or rather, the only people you could see were noble families from branch households. They had to go door to door to collect babies and distribute gold coins and food according to the baby roster.

Ultimately, these babies will be exchanged for more material goods and money from the divine nobles, who will then hang the babies on the sacred tree to provide for its growth and fruition.

Over thousands of years, countless corpses have clung to the sacred tree. Its flower buds have slowly formed, and perhaps it won't be long before it blooms.

Xue's Law once asked the people of the Starship Corps why the Divine Tree had to "eat people" to bear fruit.

The answer was that "humanoids" are primates, and their evolution is increasingly closer to that of the King. Regardless of whether their ancestors were dragons, burrowing mice, forest fairies, or some strange monsters, they would all gradually evolve to resemble the King.

The closer one gets to the Venerable King, the more "spirituality" one possesses, and the more powerful the fruit the divine tree can bear.

In other words, the Divine Tree does not absorb souls, blood, or energy; it absorbs the power of the Venerable King.

In other words, only fragments of the King of Kings are its best nourishment. If there are no fragments of the King of Kings, then the creatures that gradually grow into the shape of the King of Kings are the second best nourishment.
