Chapter 1259 The Great Abyss Outbreak!
Chapter 1259 The Great Abyss Outbreak!
A Terra week passed quickly.
Throughout the week, Elysium was hardly quiet. The military port below the Governor's Mansion on the fourth level was lit day and night, engineering platforms stretched along the edge of the Sea of Love, and Blackstone Fortress hung in the outer layer of the sky, its enormous shadow pressing down on the entire plane, like a war altar that had entered a pre-battle charging state.
Xia Xiu did not leave the front line during this period.
He was stationed in the governor's mansion, using [Vision Needle] as the source of people, [Gospel of the Unborn] as the bridge between reality and illusion, and [Flesh of God] as the material for holy forging, gradually bringing into the world the first batch of legion backbone selected by Roger and Gilman.
Under Kiriman's command, the Thirteenth Court Legion—the Ultimate Soldier Legion—was formed.
Luo Jia also formed the Fourteenth Court Legion—the Holy Word Legion.
On the seventh day, the Rainbow Bridge channel outside the outer reaches of Bliss began to light up continuously.
The reinforcements from Heaven have arrived. The five knightly orders were the first to arrive. These five knightly orders were old acquaintances of Xia Xiu, as they had worked together during the opening ceremony.
The [Knights of Saint Isodo] under the command of the Fourth Hero.
The Knights of St. Martin, under the command of the Fifth Hero; the Knights of the Holy Trinity, under the command of the Sixth Hero; the Knights of St. Sebastian, under the command of the Seventh Hero; and the Knights of St. Jacob Pereira, under the command of the Ninth Hero, passed through the Rainbow Bridge in turn and entered the outer naval port of Elysium.
Each knightly order brought three 2.8 km/h class destroyers.
Fifteen Heavenly Kingdom destroyers were lined up in five rows, their hulls engraved with the emblems of different heroes and battle seals. As their massive silhouettes swept across the outer sea of Elysium, the soldiers in the courtyard naval port all looked up.
The court fleet arrived next.
John Berkelson, one of the six chief judges and a representative of the Rewashers, descended from the Aether Channel with his extraterrestrial fleet. The fleet's flagship was a five-kilometer-class Heavenly Cruiser, even more exaggeratedly long than Xia Xiu's three-kilometer-class flagship, the Sword of Glory. Its hull was thick and heavy, and its bow resembled a silver guillotine pointing diagonally at all realms.
Its escort fleet is equally impressive.
One after another, 1,800-meter-class escort ships unfolded from both sides of the flagship, with the landing ships of the Gray Knights sandwiched in the middle of the fleet. The black and white emblem of the Inquisition lit up along the hull, like rows of cold, open eyes.
The atmosphere at the Elysium Naval Port became noticeably more somber after the arrival of this fleet.
The burial authorities also entered the scene at the same time, and twelve special burial teams were incorporated into this operation, all under the command of five elite teams.
These five elite squads are: Backstreet Boys, Frontline Runners, Winter Wonderland, Cruel Beasts, and Angle Grinder.
Although the names of these five elite burial squads are quite strange, they have all handled many major incidents.
For example, the Backstreet Boys belong to the Tactical Theology Department.
After the Great Tranquility of Iberia, which was the battle between Heaven and the Stars [King of Volcanoes], the body of the fallen ruler of the continent of Mu was disposed of by them.
Finally, the second sword-bearer, Qasim Muhammad, took the lead at the front.
Throughout the myriad realms, the swordsman of the Heavenly Kingdom is known as the Abyss Lord, and now, two Abyss Lords have appeared simultaneously on the front lines of the Blissful Realm.
Xia Xiu stood on the high platform of the fourth floor of the Governor's Mansion, watching the five knight orders, the Inquisition fleet, the Grey Knights, the Burial Agency squad, and the Second Swordholder arrive at Elysium one after another.
Tulls stood beside him, holding a stack of newly updated theater dispatch sheets, his expression complex.
"This is a show of force, they really intend to tear down all the heavens and myriad worlds."
Xia Xiu smiled.
"We call this efficiency."
Meanwhile, the perfect embryos have also entered a state of pre-battle readiness.
Lupercal, the son of the First Prince, temporarily commands the Bloodsworn Legion and also controls the Wolfpack forces.
Fenrir commands the Star Wolves, Lionel commands the Angels of Repentance, and Manun commands the Hand of Hammers.
Vulcan leads the Forged Legion, Magus leads the Thousand Shapeshifters Legion, and Forgrim leads the Phoenix Legion.
Angolan commands the Devourer Legion, Mortalius commands the Undying Legion, Perturabo commands the Warfighter Legion, and Ron commands the Warfist Legion.
With the addition of Roger and Kiriman, the Court now has all fourteen legions.
With such a massive army and the support of the Kingdom of Heaven, it's no wonder that Turs lamented that the Kingdom of Heaven was going to destroy all the heavens and the myriad worlds.
Xia Xiu then greeted the representatives of the five knightly orders, as well as the second swordsman, Qasim Muhammad.
These people were all old acquaintances, having worked together to varying degrees on different fronts of the Heavenly Kingdom in the past. Even though they had different temperaments, approaches, and combat habits, they quickly entered the same war rhythm as they stood before the final battlefield of the Evergreen War.
The person I met for the first time was Chief Justice John Berkelson.
This representative of the rewash faction had black hair, a handsome face, and a more easygoing demeanor than Xia Xiu had imagined.
He wore a black and white power armor suit worn by the Chief Justice, with a silver insignia of the extraterrestrial fleet hanging on his chest. He looked like a respectable, almost mild-mannered diplomat, making it hard to associate him at first glance with his hawkish past of attempting to arrest members of the resolution assembly.
John walked up to the platform and extended his hand to Xia Xiu.
"I have long admired the fourth swordsman."
Xia Xiu grasped his hand and smiled:
“I have long admired your name, Judge Berkelson. When your five-kilometer-class cruiser entered the port, my naval dispatcher almost thought that heaven had sent a mobile court to the scene.”
John smiled, showing no embarrassment whatsoever.
"If the Ivy League wars come to a head and a mobile courtroom is needed, I can temporarily convert my flagship into that."
After he finished speaking, his gaze quickly turned to the converging triple world bubble behind Xia Xiu.
“I heard that you retrieved a World Bubble related to the Crimson King.”
"Civilization evolves on its own, creating a miniature world that translates reality into fiction, and can even transfer its population and history into the present world. The Inquisition has not seen such a case for a long time."
Xia Xiu was not surprised that John would ask this question.
The Anabaptists have always championed the [Sandbox Project], and John Berkelson was the representative of the Earthly Anabaptists in the courtroom.
For such people, the remnants of the world bubble left by the red scar are like a theoretical sample delivered to their lips.
"I call this newborn bubble of the world—the Gospel of the Unborn."
Xia Xiu raised his hand, and a transparent, slightly reddish World Bubble flashed across his palm. Inside the bubble, countless unformed outlines floated, like the shadows of babies, cities, pages of books, planets, and civilizations.
"To be honest, this world bubble itself doesn't contain much content. It carries informational authority from the supreme divinity."
"Whenever the Gospel is read, the unborn will take a name, a form and a testimony in the world; and all that is proclaimed will find flesh."
John's eyes visibly lit up.
"This almost verifies the core technical approach of the sandbox project."
Xia Xiu glanced at him.
"Judge Berkelson, I know what you want to ask."
He put away the projection of the [Gospel of the Unborn], his tone still relaxed.
"However, this thing is now under my personal control, and it has just been rebuilt. If the Shredders want me to join you, I can only apologize in advance."
"I personally don't think much of the Rewashists' platform or the Sandbox Project itself."
John did not immediately refute, but simply nodded slightly.
“I can understand your caution. The Garden of Shadows project is highly controversial within Heaven, and there are also many within the Inquisition who oppose the Anabaptist line.” He paused, his gaze then falling on the [Limitless Soldier Legion] and [Holy Words Legion] that had just completed their assembly in the distance.
“Eden has opened up a portion of the Red Scar archives to me… I know that your Legion’s offspring, namely Roger and Killiman, come from a self-interpreting miniature world, and I also know that you have used the Vision Needle to push the core of their civilization from fiction into reality.”
"This experience is important for the Anabaptists."
Xia Xiu smiled.
"The Anabaptists hope to put all of humanity into a macroscopic miniature, hide the Kingdom of Heaven outside the world, and decide the extraordinary, the free, the war and the destiny of all people."
"Judge Berkelson, I can understand your motivation to isolate the abnormal, the divine, and the absurd, but I cannot agree with this program."
John laughed after hearing this.
"It seems we'll have a lot to argue about in the future."
He raised his hand to adjust his gloves, his tone still gentle, yet carrying the unyielding stubbornness of the Anabaptists.
"In my view, creating a sandbox is not about keeping human civilization hidden forever. It is the ultimate extension of the veil policy and another form of severing ties between heaven and earth."
"Humanity should first isolate itself from absurd anomalies, the gaze of the gods, the pollution of ether, and the selfish desires of the supernatural, in order to obtain a stable, clean, and sustainable macrocosm."
"Heaven will be able to freely enter and exit the miniature garden, becoming a true external defense line. Once humanity is no longer torn apart by internal supernatural forces, Heaven will be able to deal with those strange and bizarre enemies."
Xia Xiu shrugged.
"Let's talk about this after the war is over."
John did not continue arguing.
He turned his head, his gaze passing over the Elysium military port and looking toward the divine fleet that was gathering in the direction of the myriad worlds.
"Then let's end the war first."
Below the high platform, the battle lights of the Paradise Naval Port lit up one by one.
The fifteen 2.8 km-class destroyers of the five knight orders have completed their formation, the five km-class cruisers of the Inquisition are stationed on the flank of Blackrock Fortress, the twelve Burial Agency squads have begun inspecting anomalous weaponry, and the Gray Knights have entered the landing ships to stand by.
Further away, the flags of the fourteen courtyard legions were already being raised.
As Xia Xiu gazed upon this unprecedented array, his golden pupils reflected the blue-gold sea of Elysium, the massive shadow of Blackrock Fortress, and the divine fleet that was gathering from all directions of the myriad realms.
The final battle of the Ivy League is about to begin.
He led the second swordsman, Qasim Muhammad, to the Black Stone Fortress, while the other troops boarded their respective ships according to the war zone order.
Inside Blackrock Fortress, in front of the Psionic Throne, Xia Xiu's figure was projected onto the communication array of the entire fleet.
Behind him were the white-gold patterns shining from the depths of Blackrock Fortress, the blue-gold sea of the distant Elysium, and the divine shadows of the myriad worlds that were gathering toward the Golden Tree.
"Gentlemen, the Ivy League War has reached its final stage."
"The pantheons of all the heavens and myriad worlds chose to gather under the golden tree. They wanted to crown the common lord with a crown, use the sacred legitimacy of the old gods to expel the Kingdom of Heaven, and use the shackles of the divine kingdom, the supplicants, and the faith to suppress the outer planes again."
"The Kingdom of Heaven cannot tolerate this order continuing to exist!"
"From this moment forward, the Ivy League Wars have entered the full-scale war phase. We will no longer be on the defensive. From now on, we only need to do one thing—attack, attack, and keep attacking!"
"This time, there is no defense, only continuous conquest!"
"Blackrock Fortress will tear open the gates of the Mechanical Realm, the Court Legion will crush the Gear Throne of the Gods, and the Knights of Heaven, the Inquisition, the Grey Knights, the Burial Mechanism, and the Swordholder Sequence will dismantle the skeleton of the pantheon piece by piece in this final war."
"Burn all the heavens and myriad realms, and reduce all divine kingdoms to ashes!"
Even if the ground beneath the golden tree is piled high with the crowns of gods, we must make them understand one thing—
Xia Xiu stood up, his golden pupils reflecting the fleet signals across the entire war zone.
"The ultimate fate of any pantheon is utter—death!!!"
Below the Psionic Throne, Eden's voice rang out.
[The Ivy League Final Battle Zone was completed simultaneously across the entire army.]
[Blackrock Fortress main channel unfolds.]
[Target: Mechanical Realm.]
Xia Xiu raised his hand and pressed it forward.
The next instant, Blackrock Fortress tore open an ethereal rift.
The colossal celestial fortress, like a black star held in the hands of Heaven, crashed into the surging torrent of ether. Behind it, the destroyer fleets of the five knightly orders advanced in succession, the Inquisition fleet followed on the flanks, the Grey Knight landing craft sank into the middle of the battle line, and the Court Legion's massive fleet, like a steel tide, pressed towards the Mechanical Realm along the channel torn open by the Blackrock Fortress.
The sky over Paradise darkened briefly after the fleet departed.
Subsequently, the naval port defenses were closed again, and the remaining engineering platforms and garrison fleet began to enter a state of martial law in accordance with the wartime regulations left by Tulls.
This time, the war will not stop in the Mechanical Realm.
The Mechanical Realm is just the first gear to be shattered; after that, it will be Kaseri, the Garden of Beasts, the Hell of Bathor, the Twin Heavens... and the entire universe!
At the same time, all the realms of the heavens and the myriad worlds also took notice of this massive war mobilization.
Around the Golden Tree, the Divine Kingdom Ark and the Sanctuary Fleet, which were gathering, almost simultaneously detected the etheric oscillation from the direction of Elysium.
An urgent alarm sounded from the Gear Layer of the Mechanical Realm, and the Holy Light Council of the Seven Hills Paradise instantly entered a wartime meeting. Many minor and medium-sized pantheons had just completed their consolidation and had not yet had time to pledge allegiance to their new masters when they saw the Heavenly Kingdom fleet pressing in from the other end of the outer plane.
Fear began to spread among the pantheons, and an eruption occurred from the direction of the Abyss: the Fourth Abyss Lord was leading the massive Abyss army in!
Inside Blackrock Fortress, Soros, a wand-wielding emperor penguin who had been forcibly detained by Xia Xiu to serve as a sensor for the fortress, was lying in front of an observation porthole, his chubby body pressed against the glass, his eyes shining like two small light bulbs.
"Damn! What a spectacle! This is the final battle of the Ivy League Wars!"
Soros was so excited that he flapped his wings wildly, almost knocking off the sensor interface next to him.
"I, Soros, was able to witness two Abyss Lords leading their armies to sweep across the myriad worlds. Even if I were to be killed on the spot by the aftershocks of the main cannon, it would still be worth the price of admission!"
Emperor Penguin was speaking from the heart. After all, being able to witness the ferocity of this battle firsthand was worth the ticket price, even if it meant dying on the spot!
After he finished speaking, he immediately pulled out a stack of papers from under his wing and took out a pen. While everyone inside Blackrock Fortress was staring at the war zone waterway, he secretly wrote down the title.
[Major Outbreak in the Abyss!]
After writing those words, Soros still felt it wasn't sensational enough, so he added a small line of text below the title.
—The two Abyss Lords joined forces, and the Abyss launched a full-scale war, plunging all the worlds into their darkest hour!
He stared at his title and nodded in satisfaction.
"Great title, this will definitely be a bestseller!"
The next second, Eden's cold notification sounded in his ear.
[Soros, you are prohibited from writing unapproved battlefield reports within the Blackrock Fortress main combat zone communication channels.]
The fat penguin froze for a moment, then nonchalantly hid the paper under its belly.
"This is my sensor operation log, glug~"
He tried to get away with it by acting cute, but Eden was too lazy to pay attention to him at this point. After all, Xia Xiu had ordered that this bird-shaped sensor be treated well, so he could let him do whatever he wanted as long as it wasn't too outrageous.
Blackrock Fortress continued forward, and at the end of the Aether Rift, the cold and massive Gear Plane of the Mechanical Realm appeared before the war fleet.
